Emperor Lin did not turn over his concubine's sign tonight, and stayed alone in his own heart-cultivation hall. Sleeping Zhengxiang was suddenly awakened by Peng Man, originally full of anger, but after hearing Peng Man's reply, he was gone after a little sleep.

The palace man quickly served him and got up and dressed. When he went out carrying the lantern, Qingyan waited outside.

Peng Man only briefly said a few words. At this time, seeing Qingyan, Lin Di asked: "You can tell what happened just now."

Qingyan then recounted what Meibi had said and done after stepping into Mingyue Palace. Lin Di had been vigorously pursuing the clues of the year recently. At this time, listening to these words of Mei Yan, how could he still not understand what happened, and he was shocked and angry.

While heading to Mingyue Palace, he told Peng Man: "Go and call Concubine Hui!" After thinking about it, he said, "Send someone to Yinshuang Palace again, and bring both the dead and the alive!"

Peng Man led the order, while Emperor Lin hurried to Mingyue Palace.

When she entered, Mei Yan had calmed down. She was wearing Xiao Lan's coat and was drinking a cup of hot water.

The scar on her face was already bluffing. It was even deeper in the night, with a disheveled head and tears on her face. It was more terrifying than a female ghost. Lin Di only took a look, it was really a heart that stuck in his throat, and quickly moved his gaze to the gentle and elegant Xiao Lan next to him.

Look, this is my concubine.

The true gentleness, kindness and talent, knowing that Mei Yan was the murderer who poisoned herself back then, but still thoughtfully took her coat and poured hot water for her.

With this comparison, Emperor Lin's love for Xiao Lan grew deeper.

When Mei concubine saw her coming, she immediately knelt down, first banged her head three times, then lay down on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that he is guilty, and there is more than a guilty death, but the concubine does not want to be raped. People are blinded, even if they die, they must die in the hands of your majesty, and you must be clear about death!"

Lin Di didn't say a word, glanced coldly at the figure kneeling on the ground, and pulled Xiao Lan to sit on the collapse. Lin Feilu also ran over and crawled into his arms with sleepy eyes, and asked with an urn voice: "Father, Empress Mei said that someone wants to kill her, is it true?"

Lin Di touched her little head and looked over with a calm face: "Kneel and think about all the details of the truth back then. When Concubine Hui arrives, we will talk about it together."

Mei 嫔 should be crying.

She also knew that His Majesty did not like this face now, and had been lying on the ground without raising his head.

After a while, Concubine Hui came over.

She could not sleep well tonight, and suddenly heard someone call the door, saying that your majesty sent her question.

Concubine Hui's heart thumped, and she knew that something was wrong. When it came to a juncture, he was calmer than usual, and after whispering to the servant girl, he hurried out. But I didn't expect it to be Mingyue Palace. When I came in, I saw Mei Yan who was kneeling on the ground, and then I looked at the imposing manner of Emperor Lin, and I was panicked no matter how calmly I was.

Walking from the door to the hall a few steps, I was stunned to walk out of her cold sweat, kneel slowly under the compelling sight of Emperor Lin, and try to keep his voice calm: "The concubine visits your majesty, at this hour, I don’t know that your majesty calls him. What happened to my concubine here?"

Lin Di said coldly: "Aren't you surprised to see Mei Yan here?"

Concubine Hui smiled reluctantly: "I was a little surprised, waiting for your majesty's order."

Lin Di simply said: "Mei, you will repeat what happened tonight."

Mei Yan lifted her body slowly, and took a deep look at the concubine Hui next to her. There was a hint of insidiousness in her red and swollen eyes, and she suddenly got goose bumps.

Mei Bi recounted what happened tonight, including she sent someone to find Liu San could not find it, hid the scissors under the pillow, the inexplicable fragrance in the room, and the man in black who broke in.

Hui Fei's face turned pale every time Mei Bi said.

Speaking at the end, she turned around and looked at Hui Fei saying every word: "Sister Hui Fei is going to kill her."

Concubine Hui screamed: "You spit people! I have no grievances with you on weekdays. How can I do this evil when I treat your sisters! You don't know who you have offended and caused murder, and you blamed me on my head. on!"

After all, Emperor Chaolin kowtowed and said: "I beg your Majesty to be fair to his concubines!"

Lin Di's face was also ugly.

Although he didn't like Mei concubine, but in his palace, the assassination of concubines happened unexpectedly, and the master behind the scenes was so bold and reckless, how could he be regarded as the emperor? !

He stared at Mei Yan, and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, why did Concubine Hui kill you?"

When asked about this, Concubine Hui only felt that her body was soft and she was about to collapse, but she forced her fingers under her sleeve to endure it.

Mei Yan closed her eyes, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. With the scar on her face, it became more and more terrifying. She glanced at Xiao Lan next to Emperor Lin, and slowly said: "This matter needs to Speaking of years ago."

In the middle of the night, the silly truth of the Sixth Prince Lin Zhanyuan finally slowly surfaced.

How can the unknown of the birth mother provoke God's anger, but it is a murder caused by the fight for favor. The sixth child should have been a healthy and smart prince, and Xiao Lan should have been promoted to the position of concubine smoothly.

All this was ruined because of the two poisonous women below.

After hearing her say the last word, Emperor Lin couldn't help but smashed the teacup on the case table severely.

The teacup was smashed to pieces, and the splashed fragments hit the back of Mei Bin's hand. She brushed away the blood indifferently, but there was a smile on her lips.

This is the end of the matter, and Concubine Hui will not let her go.

Even if she is dead, she has to pull her back!

Concubine Hui was already sweating coldly, and she kept repeating: "You are spitting blood! I don't know the medicine you are talking about! Your Majesty! I beg your Majesty to call the shots, and your concubine is innocent!"

Mei Bi looked at her faintly, saying every word: "Your Majesty, if you are about to die, your words are good."

What if there is no evidence? She was in a dead end, and now she was trading her life for the truth of the year. Whether there is evidence is not important, whether Lin Di will believe it is the most important.

At this time, the guards who went to the Yinshuang Temple to check also returned.

Peng Man said back and forth: "Your Majesty, the Silver Frost Hall is empty, and the assassins are missing. There are only two corpses, which are court ladies of the Silver Frost Palace. For fear of disturbing the nobles and princesses, the old slave has sent them to the handyman's room. ."

Lin Di asked in a deep voice, "What is the cause of death?"

Peng Man returned: "Scissors pierced his chest to death."

This is connected with everything Mei Bin just said. It seems that the assassin saw Mei Yan escape and used the scissors to kill the two court ladies.

Now that things have happened, and there can be falsehoods, Lin Di is more than angry. Now he wants to strangle the poisonous woman who is crying out injustice.

Concubine Hui's face was full of tears, and she refused to admit it, just like the original Mei Yu, and even sweared: "It's not me! Your majesty, the concubine has never done this! If there is a lie, you can't die!"

She was certain that Mei Yan could not produce the evidence that the medicine was prescribed in the past, and now that the assassins have run away, it is impossible to prove that she sent them. Regardless of whether Lin Di believes or does not believe it, without evidence, it is impossible to really do anything to her.

Mei Yu waited for her sophistry to finish, and then said: "Your Majesty, the assassin was stabbed in the arm by his concubine. As long as you go to the palaces to search for people with injuries on your shoulders, you will know at the first instance!"

Concubine Hui clenched her teeth and knelt on the ground without speaking.

The Emperor Lin in a deep voice told Peng Man to go and interrogate everyone in the Huifei Palace to check for wounds. If not, then try to interrogate the palacemen and guards in other palaces one by one, that is, to go through the palace and find out the assassins!

After such a trouble, the night was already very deep. Mei Yan had a weird smile, and Concubine Hui cried and cried out for her grievances. Lin Di had a headache when she heard her. When she looked at Xiao Lan, who was silent next to her with red eyes, she felt guilty and distressed.

Had it not been for these two people to harm her, how could she have had such a hard time all these years?

Emperor Lin couldn't help but stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, and asked in a low voice, "When things come to the bottom, what does Lan'er hope I do with them?"

Xiao Lan slowly raised her eyes in his arms, her eyes glowing red, so pitiful, but she tried to smile at him: "But according to your majesty's orders."

Lin Di patted her delicate back and sighed for a long time.

Tracing the palace's people is a big project, and one night is definitely not enough. Emperor Lin ordered Mei Bi and Concubine Hui to be taken away separately, and detained in Yongxiang, waiting for clues to be found before interrogation.

As soon as they left, he didn't bother to return to the Hall of Nourishment, and stayed directly at Xiao Lan, just taking this opportunity to comfort her.

Early the next morning, the thrilling scene that happened last night began to go viral in the harem. After all, Peng Man led people to investigate the assassin. The Yaohua Palace of Hui Fei was the first to be investigated, but the assassin with injured arm was not found.

Concubine Hui acted vigilantly, and naturally would not use people in her palace.

When the queen mother heard that there was a clue to the truth, she sent someone to ask about it. The palace staff reported the matter after returning. The queen mother heard that Concubine Hui was involved, and she was silent for a while.

For a long time, he laughed at himself: "It seems that the Aijia also sometimes missed it."

Since Lin Nianzhi was slapped and locked up by Concubine Hui last time, he has not spoken to Concubine Hui until now.

She has always had a big temper. Although she complained in her heart, she knew what the consequences would be when she said about the murder of the princess. While trying to protect her mother and concubine, she felt guilty for Xiao Wu, and her whole person was not as active as before.

In the middle of the night, the palace staff came to pass on Concubine Hui. Lin Nianzhi slept too well after taking the tranquilizer, and didn't know what happened last night until today.

Yongxiang is the place where the concubine in the palace is imprisoned, and the concubine Hui is imprisoned there. It goes without saying.

She was already very guilty about Xiaowu's affairs, and now she learned that her sixth brother's stupidity was also related to her mother's concubine's medicine. She was so angry, hated and sad that she fainted in a hurry.

The palace was turned upside down, and the Mingyue Palace where the source was located was as peaceful as ever.

Not long after Emperor Lin left in the morning, some palace officials sent a lot of rewards.

In the past, Emperor Lin only appreciated Lin Feilu and Xiao Lan, but this time he did it together with Lin Zhanyuan. He gave him the Four Treasures of the Study, and gave him the bow and arrow riding outfit. The other things that the prince had appreciated, all in the morning, I will make up for him. Done.

Lin Feilu squatted next to the flower field and watered the flowers, watching Lin Zhanyuan circling excitedly around the rewards, and while running, he said, "It's mine! It's all for me!"

He has never received so many gifts.

Although he was a stupid child, he also knew that his father was the most powerful person here, and everyone had to listen to his father. Now that the most powerful person has given him so many things, he is of course happy.

Xiao Lan smiled and sat aside, her eyebrows still gentle, and she didn't have the feeling of exultation of revenge.

She has such a character, even if she stands up, she can't erase the softness in her heart. Qing Yan and Yun You were very happy, both talking and doing things with joy.

Yun You asked Xiao Lan while pulling the line: "Manny, what do you think your Majesty will do with Mei Er and Concubine Hui? It is a capital crime to murder the prince."

Xiao Lan glanced at her reproachfully: "Your Majesty has his own opinions on these things, so you don't need to talk too much."

Yun You spit out her tongue. She entered the palace with Xiao Lan. She grew up with Xiao Lan, and her temperament was much brighter than that of smoke. After a while, he ran to Lin Feilu again and helped her water the flowers together: "Princess, do you think your majesty will order Meibi to be executed?"

Lin Feilu pulled up a weed hidden in the flowers and threw it aside. His crisp voice was a little careless: "Isn't Mei Mi's father still managing floods in the south of the Yangtze River? At best, he should be in the cold palace."

The princess has always been smart, and she said that, she would definitely not leave ten.

Yun You was a little puzzled, and asked, "Where is Concubine Hui?"

Lin Feilu wiped his hands with a kerchief: "At best, you can drop one position and ban one foot."

Yun You lost his voice: "Ah? That's it? That's too cheap for them, right?"

Xiao Lan reprimanded her: "Yun You, speak carefully."

Yun You lowered his mouth and said nothing more.

Three days later, the guards who searched for the assassin finally gained something. But the man was dead and was thrown into a dry well, and the wounds on his arm that were stabbed by scissors had rotted. At the same time, the guards also found another corpse, the **** Liu San who was missing from Yinshuang Temple.

Liu San was directly involved in the assassination of Lin Feilu. As soon as he died, Concubine Hui removed herself from the incident.

The dead assassin also found out his identity. He was just one of the guards patrolling in the palace and had nothing to do with Concubine Hui. Now that everyone is dead, Concubine Mei said that there was no proof, and could not prove that this person was sent by Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui acted fiercely and quickly, cutting off all clues related to her.

In fact, when Emperor Lin heard Mei Lai's cry that night, she knew that she was telling the truth. Even though Concubine Hui destroyed all the evidence, she even committed the crime in Lin Emperor's heart.

He only now knows that his concubine is such a scheming, scheming and cruel woman. These years, she has been in the palace and guarded herself without fighting or grabbing. Even the queen mother praised her for her tolerance, which really treats everyone in this palace. Shaking around!

Emperor Lin was really angry with Qiqiao, but just like the incident in Mei Bin, he was angry and wanted to kill, he had to take care of the court officials.

Concubine Hui’s father is now an official to the minister of households and is a fierce general who fills the treasury. Many of her mother’s children serve as officials in various places and develop the local economy very well. The silver tax paid to the treasury every year is ranked in the country. top ten.

And she also gave birth to the princess, the first child of Lin Di.

Although the murder of the prince is a serious crime, Concubine Hui has done too cleanly. Even if Mei Bin bites and corrects her, she can't come up with evidence, it is impossible for Emperor Lin to really do anything to her.

Just like Lin Feilu guessed, after a few days of thorough investigation and interrogation, Emperor Lin made the decision.

Mei Bi was deprived of her position and entered the cold palace. Concubine Hui was demoted to the position of concubine and was suspended for half a year before moving out of the main hall of Yaohua Palace.

Emperor Lin couldn't punish her, so he could only vent his anger in other places. For example, the new residence he gave to Concubine Hui was a palace that was abandoned when the first emperor was there, and there have been rumors of haunting in the palace for a long time.

It used to be called Mingcui Palace, and the name was changed by Emperor Lin before Huibing moved in, and it was changed to the Hall of Repentance.

Repenting and reflecting, she slapped Huibin in the face very frankly.

When Huibi moved with the help of the palace people, she almost vomited blood when she saw the brand new plaque under the sunlight.

Humans are a very strange animal. After such a fight, her hatred for Xiao Lan has been reduced a lot, and most of her resentment has been taken away by Mei Yan.

The same is true for Mei Bie. Since moving into the cold palace, she has stopped tying Xiao Lan and Lin Feilu’s dolls. They only tie Hui Bing’s dolls every day, cursing her not to die.

Along with the decree of these two people, there was another decree of Jinfeng, which was passed to Mingyue Palace. The decree stated that Xiao's Hui had a blue heart and had merit in giving birth to a prince and prince, and he was Zhaoyi.

Zhaoyi goes up again, and that's 嫔.

Lin Di originally planned to promote her directly to the rank of 嫔, but remembered that Xiao Lan was harmed because he was too petting, so he slowed down to prevent her from being too noticeable.

Originally wanted to give Xiao Lan a new palace, but Xiao Lan declined on the grounds that both children were used to the environment here.

Lin Feilu's flower field was only established, and now the flower farming business is in full swing, and the Emperor Lin did not force it at first sight.

Xiao Lan immediately jumped to four positions. Although everything came to light back then, everyone knew that this was Lin Di's compensation to her, but the promotion so much at once made everyone in the harem a little surprised.

Now there are only two concubines left in the four concubines, and the minds of the harem beauties have begun to liven up again. In the past, the position of the four concubines was occupied to death, and at most they struggled to the position of concubine. Now they finally have a chance to get promoted, of course they are all eager to try.

The harem was suddenly surging.

Xiao Lan, who had become Lan Zhaoyi from a noble man, was still as calm as before.

She is indeed much smarter than before. She knows how to please Lin Di and how to use her own advantages.

But she didn't want to fight for favor, she just hoped that what she did would enable her two children to grow up safely.

Lin Feilu was different from what she thought.

They have all come to this point.

Anyway, we have to fight, it is better to fight for a big one.

She thinks the concubine is quite good.
