Chapter 482

"Mu'er!"

Shangguan Shaochen was busy supporting Ling Mu'er's body, when he turned his head again, he saw that the sharp sword in Qin Yuheng's hand had pierced Concubine Min's shoulder.

"Ah! Happy King killed someone!"

Concubine Min's personal maid yelled, and in an instant, the entire bedroom was in chaos.

The majestic prince murdered the emperor's noble concubine, even if he had ten thousand reasons, it would be difficult to end the matter.

The imperial army rushed forward, quickly surrounded Qin Yuheng, raised the spear in his hand, and threatened angrily, "Please put down the weapon, King Xiaoyao, or the subordinates will attack."

Seeing Concubine Min Gui's wide-eyed stare, which was pierced by herself in the shoulder with blood flowing from the fire, Qin Yuheng was also stunned, why didn't she resist?

'Kang Dang', the sword fell to the ground, and he was controlled by the Imperial Forest Army.

It took him a while to realize, "Button, that button is in the brazier, Second Brother!"

He kept looking back to wink at Shangguan Shaochen.

After Shangguan Shaochen made sure that Ling Mu'er was fine, he immediately stepped forward. At this time, Concubine Min Gui had already collapsed in blood.

"Come here, lift Concubine Min up!"

However, Concubine Min didn't know whether it was intentional or caused by a serious injury. She lay in the brazier and let the flames burn her body, but she still remained motionless.

"Quick, save people!"

The guards of the Imperial Forest Army were terrified, fearing that they would not be able to explain this matter to the emperor, they rushed to rescue Concubine Min Gui who had fainted, and put out the fire on her body, but because of the delay just now, everything in the brazier had already been burned into ashes.

"No buttons." Shangguan Shaochen shook his head in disappointment.

Qin Yuheng seemed to be crazy, "Impossible, the king will never be wrong, it is that button! Concubine Min deliberately took out Qin Xuanting's clothes to cover that button, she is the murderer who murdered the concubine mother, she did it on purpose The one who jumped in and couldn't come out was because she deliberately destroyed the evidence, I..."

"My lord!"

The imperial army roared and interrupted Qin Yuheng. He looked at Concubine Min embarrassingly, and then looked at the surrounding environment, "Your Highness, please calm down. Although my subordinates don't know what happened here, it is against the law of the palace to murder your concubine. Also ask the prince to cooperate with us."

After the words fell, the guard made a gesture, and Qin Yuheng was taken away.

"Second Brother, help me!"

Before Qin Yuheng left, he was still struggling, but his scarlet eyes were very sincere.

Shangguan Shaochen knew that what he asked was not to rescue him from the prison, but to find a way to prove that Concubine Min was the one who murdered Concubine Yi.

"Why are you still standing there, Doctor Xuan!"

Shangguan Shaochen scolded angrily, and then the sluggish people took action. The maidservants hurriedly carried Concubine Min into the room, the guards were busy dealing with the disturbance, and individual servants ran away in a hurry. You don’t need to guess, you know, some went The imperial study room, and some went to the imperial hospital.

"It was really Concubine Min who did it?" Nangong Yizhi took a long time to come back to his senses, and he walked slowly towards Shangguan Shaochen and Ling Muer.

"Cousin, didn't you say that the most dangerous person is the least likely? But Qin Yuheng's eyes didn't seem to be wrong just now, could it be..."

Shangguan Shaochen closed his eyes and opened them again, sighed helplessly, "Concubine Min is the most likely murderer of Concubine Yi, it is precisely because of this relationship that we all speculated that it could not be her, but I didn't expect..."

"Qin Yuheng is right. Concubine Min deliberately burned Qin Xuanting's clothes in order to burn the missing buttons and sequins as a cover. She did not hesitate to jump into the sea of ​​fire to hide the evidence. This Concubine Min is even more cruel than Qin Xuanting's methods. !"

Ling Muer said, while watching Concubine Min being carried away, she gritted her teeth.

For a person who can be so cruel to herself, one can imagine what kind of crazy things she can do.

"Concubine Kemin was confined in the harem at that time, and Concubine Yi was always taking care of the emperor. How did the two of them get together? Logically speaking, if Concubine Yi knew that it was Concubine Min's appointment, she would definitely not show up. Ah." Nangong Yizhi couldn't figure it out.

"Guifei Yi will never go to see Concubine Min, she misses the emperor, if not for special reasons, she will never leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation that day, there must be someone to help!"

Although Ling Mu'er did not see the scene at that time with her own eyes, she firmly believed that Concubine Min must have bribed someone in this matter.

"However, the button was burnt, we have no evidence to accuse Concubine Min, and Qin Yuheng stabbed her again, so the matter became more complicated."

Sure enough, when the emperor learned that Concubine Min Gui was forced by Qin Yuheng to commit suicide by jumping into the sea of ​​fire, he was already furious. He also heard that Qin Yuheng stabbed Concubine Min Gui in public, and when he attempted to murder, he even ordered King Xiaoyao to be imprisoned in the sky prison to exploit his prince. identity, and handed over the matter to Qin Ruochen.

"Qin Ruochen again? If Qin Yuheng falls into his hands, he will definitely die!"

Ling Mu'er was very angry, and turned around to go to the imperial study.

"Mu'er!"

Shangguan Shaochen hurriedly held her down, "The emperor is getting angry, you will only burn yourself if you go there at this time, calm down."

"I'm afraid that if it doesn't happen now, Qin Yuheng will be tortured to death or maimed by Qin Ruochen. Besides, the emperor just listened to the one-sided words of others and didn't know the specific situation at that time. We should explain clearly." Ling Muer insisted.

Shangguan Shaochen couldn't resist her, so he had to follow her to the imperial study, but the emperor refused to meet her.

"Second prince, second concubine, please go back, both of you. There have been so many things happening in the palace recently, and the emperor, who has finally recovered, is seriously ill again. The emperor really can't stand any blows. You should let the emperor calm down. .” Eunuch Xi tried to persuade him with kind words, and he didn’t want Master to be disturbed again.

"Eunuch Xi, I know that the emperor is in a bad mood right now, but after all, this matter involves the murderer of the noble concubine. Although Concubine Min is the victim in this matter, we suspect that she is the murderer of Concubine Yi. Eunuch Xi has sent a message to let the emperor meet us!"

After Ling Mu'er finished speaking, she took off the jade bracelet in her hand and stuffed it into his hand, but it was a pity that Eunuch Xi returned it.

"Second concubine, it's not that the old slave doesn't help you, it's because the emperor is really uncomfortable at the moment, besides, the emperor has already fallen asleep, why don't you come back later."

"Later, the Sixth Prince brought Qin Yuheng to interrogation. I'm afraid Qin Yuheng will be tortured to the point of being out of shape with punishments that should be used. He is impulsive for the purpose of investigating the case. He shouldn't have to endure these tortures." Ling Muer Persevere, hoping to convince Eunuch Xi.

"Hey, my second concubine, it's useless for you to tell this old slave about it. It's really because King Xiaoyao was too impulsive on this matter!" Eunuch Xi also sighed very much, "Although the emperor gave him The power of thorough investigation did not allow him to abuse his private behavior after finding the murderer! As the prince murdered the emperor's noble concubine, this matter is of great importance, but it is not at all less influential than the death of noble concubine Yi!"

After Eunuch Xi finished speaking, he sighed deeply, "Besides, it's only been an hour, and the rumors of Concubine Min's despicable suicide by jumping into the brazier have spread to every corner of the palace. I'm afraid you can now make sense of the emperor, The Xiaoyao King will also have to stay in prison for a while, so don't waste your efforts."

With that said, Eunuch Xi turned and left, Ling Muer hurriedly grabbed his wrist, she wanted to ask for something, but seeing Eunuch Xi shuddered uncontrollably.

How could an insignificant person be so scared?

"Eunuch Xi, I don't make things difficult for you. If the emperor doesn't see you, you just don't see him. But after Concubine Min was taken away just now, the Imperial Forest Army sealed off the sleeping hall. We didn't see anyone and didn't know her condition. Do you know how Concubine Min is doing now?" ?”

Seeing that Ling Muer wasn't asking about anything else, Eunuch Xi quietly exhaled, "I heard that the injury was quite serious. After sitting in the brazier for so long, the sword of King Xiaoyao pierced his shoulder again. I heard the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital Tell me, I'm afraid it will take a long time to cultivate. But when she woke up, she cried to the emperor that she had just died and the emperor was assassinated, and the emperor was very distressed."

Listening to him intentionally accentuating the words 'love my son', Ling Muer immediately had a bad feeling in her heart, but her peripheral vision clearly caught the dodging eyes of Eunuch Xi,

A eunuch, what is he afraid of?

"Please trouble Eunuch Xi to go back and tell the emperor that Concubine Min jumped into the brazier by herself and was not threatened by others. As for the sword, King Xiaoyao didn't do it on purpose either."

After Ling Mu'er finished speaking, she insisted on stuffing the bracelet into his arms, and pulled him into a corner, "Eunuch Xi is helping us a lot here, so please don't refuse me if you're being kind. To be honest, Mu'er still has one thing to think about." ask."

As soon as he heard that he wanted something from himself, Eunuch Xi thought about it, said thank you and stuffed the bracelet into his pocket, "The second concubine is really polite. The concubine was born in the common people, but she is so affectionate and righteous. No wonder the emperor treats you the same way." Treat them differently."

For the compliment, Ling Muer just smiled, "Eunuch also knows that I have a close relationship with Concubine Yi, and she treats me like a daughter, so I am very sad about her sudden death. I would like to ask Eunuch, Concubine Yi was taking care of her that day Did you see anyone when you were the emperor?"

Eunuch Xi was startled, and hurriedly retracted the arm that she was holding, his whole body was in a state of alert, looking like he was guarding against the enemy. Although he soon laughed, Ling Muer clearly caught this scene.

"Back to the Second Prince, Concubine Yi has never seen anyone."

"I haven't seen it, so why did you go to see Concubine Min?" Ling Muer asked, her eyes began to stare at him carefully.

"This, how does our family know this?"

Eunuch Xi was already a little panicked, so he didn't dare to look her in the eyes, "If the second concubine has nothing else to do, our family is still in a hurry to go back and take care of the emperor."

"It's true that there is nothing else. It is nothing more than continuing to search for the murderer who murdered Concubine Yi. Don't hide it from my father-in-law. Now we have found that Concubine Min is the murderer, but Concubine Min was ordered by the emperor not to leave the harem. Then who put Yi The noble concubine lured her out, this person is an accomplice! Mu'er is new here and doesn't know many rules in the palace, so Eunuch must know what it means to murder a noble concubine to death, right?"

Eunuch Xi trembled when he turned around, he was so pale that he didn't even dare to look into Ling Muer's eyes, "The second concubine attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and cares so much about Concubine Yi's case, I believe Concubine Yi will feel it when she is alive. I'm very relieved, but according to our family's opinion, the second prince concubine should think of a way to rescue King Xiaoyao, and our family has to serve the emperor, so we will leave first."

Before Ling Mu'er could reply, he hastily fled back to the inner hall, but before striding away, Ling Mu'er could clearly see beads of sweat dripping from his forehead.
