Chapter 70: Palace secret

After walking straight out of the East Palace for a long time, before reaching a plum grove, An Ning looked around mysteriously, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Xue, I know that you must not have done the work of that painting, but you Huizhilan Heart, do you know how the painting burned?"
Mu Yingxue thought for a while, and said frankly: "I haven't checked the painting before, so I don't know how it was burned for the time being, but I just asked Xiao Lin to fetch the broken pages. If it is really done, it must be able to I found it out. ★The first book chase gang★"
An Ning grabbed the smile on her face, sighed, and then said melancholy: "What if you can't find it out?"
Mu Yingxue was strange when she heard what she said, and she was a little confused for a while, so she didn't answer.
"If nothing can be found out in the end, will it be considered to have been burned by a sky fire?"
"If there is no thunder or lightning, where does the sky fire come from. This painting must be burnt after being painted on something." Mu Yingxue said confidently, "Anning, why are you asking this?"
"Sister Xue, haven't you noticed that Brother Sheng is missing?" An Ning suddenly mentioned Xuanyuan Sheng.
Mu Yingxue said, "Maybe something is wrong with him."
An Ning's expression looked a little sad, "No, Brother Sheng saw the painting that caught fire for no reason, and thought of his mother and concubine, so he left the meeting. Because, back then, his mother and concubine were caused by such no reason. The fire burned alive in the Meilin. Later people said that it was the sky fire burning the demon, and that Empress Mei deserves to die, and the matter is gone."
Gong Wei is secret! At this moment, Mu Yingxue only had these four words in her mind.
There are many secrets in this world. And the most secret and darkest place must be the harem where a bunch of women are intrigue for a man, and the court where a group of men are intrigue for a throne.
However, whether it is the secrets of the harem or the court, you have to pay a price if you want to know it.
Mu Yingxue knew this very well and was unwilling to cause trouble, so she interrupted An Ning quickly: "An Ning, maybe my maid should find me, let's go back first. I heard nothing just now, you didn't say anything."
She herself still has a bunch of flies that have not been resolved, but she doesn't want to get involved in these old cases of concubine competition.
As soon as the voice fell, the voice of Xiaolin’s dead niezi came—"Miss, why did you come here? It made me easy to find. What you want... plum blossoms, huh, I'll pick them for you."
She was holding a box in her hand, but when she saw that there was someone beside Mu Yingxue, she immediately turned her head and planned to pick plum blossoms.
Mu Yingxue really cut her heart to death. Everyone else can get Oscar's acting skills. Please Kobayashi. If you want to act, you can also take a snack. First hide what you have in your hands!
"It's okay, come here, this is Princess Anning." Mu Yingxue stopped her.
After seeing the gift, Xiao Lin gave the box in her hand to Mu Yingxue and said, "Miss, the painting is very clean. I can barely get the size of a fingernail, and this box..."
Mu Yingxue frowned slightly when she heard this answer, but she didn't rush to open the box to look at the nail-covered page. Yun Nianli glanced at the paper in the box with a perspective, and soon she found a thin layer of white powder on the paper.
She accepted the power of thinking, handed the box to An Ning, and said: "His Royal Highness, I am only a concubine, and I don’t know anything about the palace. If this thing can help you and Qi Ye, then give it to you. Well, after you accept it, I won't go to any attic."
An Ning also knew that Mu Yingxue was jealous, and she quickly explained: "Sister Xue, I didn't mean that. It's just... I just want you to persuade brother Sheng. He will smell the fragrance of Merlin every time he gets hurt. I stayed there for several days, and now it’s cold in the pavilion, and I’m sure to get sick after a long time. He comes in and likes to talk to Sister Xue the most. If you persuade him, Xu will come out."
Mu Yingxue was a little speechless. The girl just wanted to coax his stupid brother, so she told her the secrets of the palace?
Should I say that this girl is smart, or should I say that the girl is innocent?
Mu Yingxue sighed, and gave Xiaolin the box and the guqin on her body: "You put it away first. Wait for me here. Don't let the Seventh Prince see the box for a while. I'll go back."
With that said, Mu Yingxue entered Meilin with Anning. Xiao Lin looked at the back of them away, slightly narrowed his eyes.
She didn't remind Mu Yingxue that someone was following. After all, the palace lord said that she was only responsible for Mu Yingxue's safety, and that person was just eavesdropping, and would not affect Mu Yingxue's safety. Then let him go, anyway, the master Sheng's skill is also good, you can find out if you want to.
"An Ning, for a while, don't mention the sky fire or the picture scroll. I tell you the truth, I already know how to burn the fire. But now I can't let Xiao Qi know, he must be emotional now, I know. It may not be good for him. So I will keep the box first. After he calms down, you will find another opportunity to tell him that if he still wants the box then let him ask me for it." Mu Yingxue told Anning.
If Xuanyuan Sheng knew the truth about the fire now, and according to his temperament, maybe he would ask the emperor to ask for a thorough investigation of what happened back then.
However, did the emperor really not know the truth? The four words "Sky Fire Burning Demons" made the death of Concubine Mei incapable, but the evildoer's son lived in peace and was even favored by the emperor, which was not logical.
The normal emperor logic should be: the evildoer is burned by the sky fire, and its children will also be regarded as evildoer obliterated. It's not that Xuanyuanlie's heart is soft, it's that he is guilty.
If it's the former, it's okay to say, if it's the latter, then the emperor may not accept Xuanyuan Sheng's request for thorough investigation, but he will definitely fall out of favor. The thing that had been conclusive was turned over for retrial, isn't it the emperor's face? Years of petting has made up for it. What else do you want a prince who has no mother to rely on? !
An Ning didn't know the pros and cons of this, and she was at a loss: "Why, if it can be proved that this matter is not Tianhuo, then it is very likely that what happened back then was not Tianhuo. Brother Sheng will definitely be happy if he knows."
"If you mention it now, your seventh brother's sleeping in the cold attic is a certain thing, and there is no room for maneuver." Mu Yingxue said straightforwardly.
Tranquility is unclear. Since the time Mu Yingxue rescued her on the street, she felt that the word "reliable" was written on Mu Yingxue's face, and she was willing to trust her unconditionally.
"I listen to you, Sister Xue, you are willing to help me persuade Seventh Brother, it must be good for him!"
Mu Yingxue sighed in her heart: Your Royal Highness, I am a typical shorthand. You gave me and Tian Yu's jade flute, I would not agree to this little request, I will feel guilty. Otherwise, who cares about where the dead child sleeps at night, he is a big man, he has never slept in a cold attic, and he freezes to death, so he deserves it!
It didn't take long for them to see an attic in front of them. From afar, Mu Yingxue saw Xuanyuan Sheng sitting on the corridor on the second floor of the attic. She thought for a while, squeezed a snowball directly, and then slammed it at the person hard.
Unbiased, in the middle of the door.
Xuanyuan Sheng even fell directly into the attic by the snowball.
An Ning covered her mouth and shouted "Oh my God" three times, then was stunned.
Mu Yingxue turned her head and glanced at her, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I'm not strong enough to fight badly. This child is disobedient and loves to sleep in the cold house with emotions. Most of it is made. Just a beat."
"No...No. It's at least ten feet away from Wenxiang Pavilion, and Brother Sheng is still on the second floor. You...how did you hit him?"
Mu Yingxue's heart is not good, she patronizes to solve the problem early, forgetting that this distance is outside the range of ordinary people.
"That...I'm born with supernatural power. Don't care about so much for now, and quickly help me squeeze the snowball. I will play it so that he has no time to think about extra problems." Mu Yingxue said as she started to squeeze the snowball.
Anning heard it and felt that Mu Yingxue's last sentence sounded so reasonable, so she started to help earnestly.
Not long after, Xuanyuan Sheng's violent shout came from Meilin: "Mu Yingxue, An Ning! What are you doing!"
The answer to him was a snowball like a storm...
At this moment, Mu Yingxue’s idea is very simple—to get Xuanyuansheng out of Meilin and be peaceful; wait for Xuanyuansheng to calm down before giving him a box, as a friend of friends; successfully avoid the trouble in the harem and concentrate on making the situation. Take the mother and others to liberate as soon as possible.
However, trouble is not something Mu Yingxue can avoid if she wants to.
She hadn't healed from an old injury, and could not find the person who followed and eavesdropped. Xuanyuan Sheng also had no time to notice the strangeness because of the numerous snowball raids.
The shadow that followed, just left Merlin.
Soon after, the man in black appeared in the side hall of Fengzao Palace. He walked to the third window on the right hand side, and after three coincidences, he waited silently.
After a while, a majestic female voice rang from behind the window: "Can you hear anything?"
"Return to the Empress Empress, the four daughters of Namhou Mansion, as expected, know how the painting burns. Moreover, she also asked her maid to take the fragments and boxes of the painting. Also said...and said Why wait for Xuanyuan Sheng to calm down before handing the box to him."
"What?!" The queen was shocked, "she really said that?!"
"There is absolutely no lie in the subordinates."
The queen was silent for a while, then suddenly remembered something, and said coldly: "Weilao, what are you hiding from me?"
"Weiliao dare not!" The man in black knelt on one knee, his voice pious.
"Then I will ask you, who did Mu Si talk to?"
"The maid who went to the scraps for her."
"The burning of paintings is related to Xuanyuan Sheng, how did she know?"
"This... the subordinates don't know. But the subordinates heard that when Miss Mu Si was outside the palace, they met Xuanyuan Sheng in the Stars and Moon Tower, and they had a close personal relationship."
After being silent for a while, the queen said coolly: "In this case, you will take someone tonight, and don't let Miss Si and her maid go back." She paused, and then asked, "Be cleaner! Don't! To die in the palace embarrassed the prince."
The tone seemed to be just disposing of a pet that he didn't like very much or something else, it was calm and terrifying.
The guard left.
