In Kunning Palace, Wei Xi and Miao Zifang were called.
Seeing the imperial concubine sitting in the center side by side with Queen Wei, both of them were a little surprised.
Liu Cairen's affair was over, why the imperial concubine suddenly came to Kunning Palace again and summoned the two.
Queen Wei also looked surprised, not knowing what medicine Yuan Luo sold in the gourd.
Seeing everyone coming, Yuan Luo stroked the teacup and Shi Shiran spoke.
"My palace has heard a joke before. Let's ask the two leaders to produce a product."
joke? Wei Xi and Miao Zifang were startled, but they listened carefully.
"...In the far East Continent, there are two organizations, a KGB and an FBI. In order to compare who is the most powerful guard organization, they are determined to catch a dangerous rabbit in the competition."
"How strange is the name of this organization?" Queen Wei interrupted.
Yuan Luo glared at her, "This is not important, but the important thing is below. In order to catch this rabbit, the FBI sent a large number of investigators into the forest. They interrogated every animal in the forest and came to the conclusion that, The rabbit does not exist."
"It's the KGB's turn. They rushed into the forest. Two hours later, they dragged out a bear that was beaten to death. The bear cried and shouted: Stop fighting, stop fighting, I am the rabbit."
The joke was simple, and Queen Wei laughed out loud with a "pouch".
But Wei Xi and Miao Zifang were not so happy.
Wei Xi's face was black: "The lady thinks that Liu Cairen's case still has inside information?"
Miao Zifang knelt on one knee and said, "The Niang Niang is a clear guide, and the minister has no reason to deceive." It was his credit to close the case before, and if there were repetitions, it would be his greatest responsibility.
Seeing this reaction, Miao Zifang probably didn't fool himself on purpose. Yuan Luo relaxed a little. She is most tired of deceiving her subordinates. Miao Zifang is a general under her, and it is really bad to deceive her.
"My palace is not accusing the two leaders. Telling this story is to remind them to be cautious."
Wei Xi asked, "Why does the empress think there is something else in the matter? Is it because the criminal refused to plead guilty."
Yuan Luo smiled sarcastically: "On the contrary, the criminal has already pleaded guilty. How can all of them be as tough as Gu Yi's under the severe punishment of the Department of Prudence."
Wei Xi's expression choked.
The imperial concubine's crimson Kodan is reflected on the white porcelain cup, beautiful and solemn, just like her voice.
Yuan Luo said slowly: "The palace just wanted to ask one thing. It was night when Liu Cairen's case happened. It was clear after the snow, and the dripping water turned into ice. Is it okay in the wild with the cold wind and the sky?"
Miao Zifang and Wei Xi both froze, and both changed their faces. They suddenly realized a problem they had overlooked.
Next to Queen Wei, she looked at her left and right, looking at her left and right, "What are you talking about? Can something work?"
What a simple child!
Yuan Luo explained conscientiously: "When the weather is too cold, a man can't harden his thing. Even though the little hasn't been cleansed, he shouldn't be able to stand it. What's more, he is tired and tired of sweeping snow. Half-dead, how could it be possible to Liu Cairen in a vicious manner..." It's not Teddy's reincarnation.
Following Yuan Luo's words, Queen Wei's white jade complexion turned red a little bit, and in the end the whole face was completely red, "You...you turned out to be...it's filthy!"
There was water in her eyes, and she stared at Yuan Luo fiercely. Finally, he stamped his foot and twisted his head, and ran away crying, covering his face.
Yuan Luo looked at Queen Wei's back in shock, unable to react for a long time.
Wait, do you need such a big reaction? Your elderly can be considered married, right? It is said that in this era, although there are no small pornographic films, there are many little yellow rabbits at home. Before a woman gets married, there will be older women holding hands and kindly instructing rabbits on certain aspects of knowledge.
She turned her head to meet Wei Xi's complicated expression.
Although Miao Zifang lowered his head, he could see that there was something wrong with his expression.
Is it so hot? After watching a few live performances on Skonglin's side before, he has a clear understanding of the chaotic life of the nobles in this era. The behavior is so sloppy, and he wants to avoid these things, and he has to cover it with a fig leaf.
Ha ha.
Yuan Luo shrugged and brought the topic back to the right way: "Should the two of you give a reasonable explanation?"
The two continued to remain silent.
Yuan Luo said: "From this point of view, perhaps the person who committed the crime this time may really be a guard. After all, martial arts masters can not be afraid of the ice."
"No!" Wei Xi couldn't help but interrupt.
"What?" Yuan Luo was stunned, and finally understood what Wei Xi meant, and immediately asked: "You can't, or can't?"
Wei Xi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, what can't you say?
Yuan Luo looked innocent and had a conscience. She really asked this question entirely from an academic perspective. What's the strange look in your eyes? Of course she knows that future generations will not work, but in this era there are things like martial arts plug-ins. Internal power master, should he be able to do it?
Feeling that the concubine empress's inquiring gaze fell on him, Miao Zifang's calm expression finally couldn't be stretched, and he muttered, "No way."
This answer made Yuan Luo frowned. She thought she must be the scum of the guards, but now it seems that the possibility is reduced.
But it's normal to think about it. I haven't heard that the higher the martial arts, the longer the durability is greatly increased. It can be seen that the physical improvement brought by the internal strength of martial arts is not significant in that respect.
If martial arts masters can't do it in the ice and snow, then who did this case? Going around, things become more and more complicated.
Wei Xi couldn't help sighing: "Who is that?"
Yuan Luo's face sank, "You ask me, who do I ask, is it my palace's task to find the murderer?"
"My palace will give them three more days, hoping to find new clues."
Yuan Luo commanded loudly and turned around Shi Shiran and left. It's so cool to be in power, just throw the problem to the people below the headache.
Wei Xi showed a toothache. Miao Zifang also sighed.
For the first time in front of this concubine, he was at a loss to answer, and in just two or three sentences, he felt relieved when he left.
He quickly left the hall to arrange tracing matters.
Standing alone in the hall, Wei Xi pressed her forehead with a headache. This imperial concubine lady, she had long heard that she was not a lighthearted person, but she did not expect it to be like this...
Thinking of the person I met the day before yesterday, I felt my fingers hurt again.
"How come there are all small wild cats in this palace." He chuckled.
What little wild cat! A figure walked in quickly.
It was the queen who had gone back and forth. After escaping from the main hall, she felt that something was wrong. Kunning Palace was her own territory, why she ran away by herself. Obviously, the vulgar woman with foul language should be driven away.
He was hesitating and heard the news that Yuan Luo had left after finishing the order. She was even more depressed. It seemed to hit the cotton with a punch.
After returning to the main hall in a hurry, he heard his own brother murmur.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just think that there are too many wild cats in this palace. It's time to clean up." Wei Xi smiled and turned the subject, "Manny, there was nothing wrong just now."
It's okay not to mention this, and Queen Wei is angry when she mentions it.
"Four brother, listen, what are these words! Fortunately, there were no people left in the hall just now, otherwise I would have no face to see people."
Wei Xi was speechless. It was the imperial concubine who spoke boldly. Why are you shy? She is usually a queen with a respectable manner. But when something happened, the girl still had a little girl mentality. How can you fight the concubine in such a posture? Fortunately, her family had long urged her to stay away.
While cursing and jumping, Queen Wei waved her fists angrily, disregarding her demeanor as a queen.
"Niangniang, speak carefully, act carefully." Wei Xi had to remind.
"Be careful what you say." Empress Wei said in her mouth, she quickly put down her fist, pulled the skirt and looked around nervously, and made sure that there was no palace in the palace.
The beloved sister rarely showed the cute attitude that can only be found at home. Wei Xi's eyes softened and smiled: "Mother, don't worry, no one is in the temple."
"Huh, it doesn't matter to someone, I am a queen and a few others can afford it." Queen Wei turned her back.
"No need to worry about my mother, the day is not far away when the clouds have cleared." Wei Xi stepped forward and touched her hair, just like when she was a child.
Queen Wei was startled, "Does father have any explanation?"
Wei Xi's eyes tightened, and she smiled, "Don't be too distracted, just stay in the palace with peace of mind."
Saying goodbye to the queen, Wei Xi left the hall and started to have a headache again. Where should I start with this case?
From the deep palace, Wei Xi returned to the mansion.
Webster's ancestral house is located in Lingxifang, with huge pavilions occupying an entire street.
When I returned to the yard where I lived, as soon as I entered the door, I saw a slender figure standing under the porch, looking forward to it.
Seeing Wei Xi's return, the girl was full of surprise, and hurriedly greeted her with her skirt: "Fourth brother, you can count as coming back."
Wei Xi frowned: "Sixth sister, why are you here?"
Wei Susu, the sixth Miss Webster hurried to the front of her brother, and couldn't wait to ask: "Fourth brother, I just want to ask..."
Wei Xi knew what she wanted to ask, and said straight to the point: "The kid from the Gu family has been cleared of charges and has been acquitted."
Wei Susu yelled like a thunderbolt, "How come, didn't it mean that he would definitely die in the Department of Sentencing?"
Wei Xi frowned, "When did I assure you that I just told you to go to jail, this kid is too fateful, and I can't imagine it."
Seeing his brother's expression unhappy, Wei Susu hurriedly said, "I was looking forward to it. Brother Si, you must think of a solution and resolve it as soon as possible. I heard that the case has not been closed yet, can you please..."
Wei Xi interrupted her angrily, "This kind of case is very important, so you can't talk more."
This time he pulled Gu Yi out of the scapegoat, in fact, it was mainly for this sister. She has been married to Gu Yi since she was a child, and she didn't want to marry in the first place because she didn't want to marry. Now Gu's family is defeated, and she resists this marriage even more.
auzw.comWei Xi always cherishes her sister. Under Wei Susu's pleading, she is thinking of killing Gu Yi in the Department of Sentences. Anyway, the concubine Liu Cairen ordered a thorough investigation. Gu Yi died and the concubine was responsible for the crime. It never expected that the imperial concubine would interrogate the case in advance, and there was no time for the black hand.
Wei Xi paused and was surprised, "How do you know these inner palace secrets?"
Wei Susu was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "I was secretly told by the Lord Donglai yesterday when he came to the house. In fact, everyone was talking in private."
Wei Xi said with a calm face: "This case involves the inside story of Gong Wei, you should not talk about it with your boudoir girls."
Wei Susu nodded obediently, and pleaded with red eyes: "Fourth brother, you must think of a way, I don't want to marry Gu's family. After this incident, they must have a grudge. If I marry, there will be no Good fruit."
Wei Xi sighed helplessly, "I will find a way again, you don't need to say more."
In the afternoon, Yuan Luo went to teach Si Konglin for a long time and returned to Zichen Temple.
In the evening, she changed her appearance again and went to Yuxiu Palace.
Gu Yi was acquitted and would definitely come to thank him.
After teasing the little black dog twice in the side hall, Gu Yi came to the door as expected.
"Is your injury okay?" Yuan Luo looked at him.
"Thank you, Niang Niang, for your concern, and thank you for the ointment that Niang Niang bestowed." Gu Yi said with his hands.
"Because of this little injury, it was a good deal to leave it for several days," Cai Yunheng next to him added.
Yuan Luo had also heard of Shen Xing Secretary's methods. Gu Yi's injury was definitely not as lightly as they said. It was just that he insisted, so he couldn't say anything. Finally intervened in time, it should not hurt the bones.
"Niang Niang has nothing to do for the past few days," Gu Yi asked.
"I'm just a small shrimp, even if I offend a noble person occasionally, I won't be seen." Yuan Luo smiled.
As far as she knows, Wei Xi is not so narrow-minded yet.
Gu Yi leaned forward and hugged the little black dog. "I've been bothering my mother these few days, and I should take it away."
This little thing was accustomed to the warm and comfortable environment, and was reluctant to leave for a while. Two paws hooked on the cotton pad under him and made a grieved "barking" twice.
Gu Yi wanted to tear off the cushion, and the puppy tore it more and more nervously.
Cai Yunheng stepped forward to help, and said with a smile: "My lady is too comfortable to eat and drink here, no wonder I don't want to leave."
Yuan Luo stepped forward, stopped Cai Yunheng's movements, and directly wrapped the dog around with a soft cushion. "It's still cold outside, it's better to take it with you like this."
Gu Yilue hesitated, nodded, and cooperated with her to pack the puppy neatly.
Carrying the tied knot, Gu Yi solemnly saluted: "Thank you Niang Niang for your care in the past few days." I don't know if he is talking about a dog or a human, or a combination of both.
"How do you want to thank me?" Yuan Luo asked with her head turned.
Gu Yi was stunned, and then came back to his senses, and said sternly, "My mother has instructions and can do everything."
"Then help me."
Cai Yunheng said: "Please say, Niang Niang, you can go through water and fire."
"It's not that serious. You don't need to go through fire and water." Yuan Luo laughed.
Since the other party agreed in a big way, she wouldn't let this good opportunity go.
"I want to go out with you." She had long wanted to go out of the palace to have a look, and to go out as a noble concubine, Master Taixing moved the crowd, and it would attract everyone's attention. Now with Li Jieyu's identity, he can leave the palace quietly.
Cai Yunheng widened his eyes, "I want to leave the palace, this..."
"It's not impossible." Gu Yi intercepted his words.
Cai Yunheng reacted and touched his chin: "But you have to arrange the back road first, and find a chance to set fire in Yuxiu Palace. Then find a female corpse of the same age..."
Two young people, you said and I said, devised a plan to make Yuan Luo listen more and more wrongly.
She raised her hand with black lines all over her head: "Wait, I just want to go out and have a look, and I'll be back overnight. Are you all thinking about making up something, thinking I want to escape?"
The two who had already negotiated the murder and arson stage were stunned, and Cai Yunheng opened his mouth wide: "The mother just wants to go out for a walk?"
Yuan Luo nodded solemnly: "I just want to take a trip out of the palace. Please help from both of you."
Gu Yi came back to his senses, with an embarrassed expression: "It's because we want to make a difference and make the mother laugh."
Yuan Luo didn't know if his eyes were dazzled, as if a look of disappointment flashed on the young face.
Cai Yunheng laughed and said: "Haha, it's a trivial matter. Seeing that the empress is so solemn, I thought it was really a task of going up and down the fire."
Yuan Luo pressed her forehead, but she was a little touched in her heart, smuggling the imperial concubine and absconding, but the crime of ransacking the family and annihilating the family, the two did not hesitate, and they just did it. Of course, taking the imperial concubine out to play is almost the same, even more dangerous.
Gu Yi asked again: "Why does Niang Niang want to go out?"
"I just want to go out and have a look." Yuan Luo said perfunctorily. In fact, no wonder these two people misunderstood. The real Li Jieyu has lived outside the palace since she was a child, and she has been in the palace for a few days. Unlike her outsider, she is curious about the situation outside the palace.
All three of them are highly efficient young people, and they just leave.
I found the time for the guard patrol to change shifts, and quickly arrived at the back wall.
Gu Yi stepped over the wall and went out to check the neighborhood, and a signal of safety came out. Cai Yunheng asked Yuan Luo to climb onto the palace wall on his shoulder.
Yuan Luo pushed up the palace wall with both hands and stood on the wall.
Looking at the vast scenery outside, Yuan Luo thoughtfully: "In fact, if you really collude with someone in the guard, it's easy for an outsider to sneak into the palace secretly."
Cai Yunheng was following her up the palace wall, and he almost fell off when he heard that he slipped.
Yuan Luo glanced at him: "Don't be guilty, I won't report you."
"Niang Niang..." Cai Yunheng black line.
Yuan Luo laughed and jumped down. Gu Yi followed her under her head, helped her arm, and stood back.
"The mother has practiced martial arts?" Cai Yunheng jumped down and asked curiously.
Yuan Luo smiled without saying a word. This body is indeed light and agile, and he is skilled at bowing horses. After all, he is a hunter who goes up the mountain all year round.
The three dared not delay at the palace wall, and quickly turned into the nearby alley.
After walking quietly for a while, Gu Yi suddenly said, "It's not that easy."
Yuan Luo: "Huh?"
"To help people outside the palace sneak in, the four gates of the palace are all patrolled and guarded. Once caught, it is the crime of the Nine Clan. The guard will not take this risk for no reason."
Yuan Luo nodded, she also felt that Liu Cairen's affairs were mostly problems in the palace.
After thinking about it, she smiled again: "So, you are risking your life for me." It is a capital crime to leave the palace without authorization as a palace concubine, and the person who helps don't even want to escape. The two of them simply agreed. Now, young people are fearless.
"The mother is willing to risk her life, so why should we cherish our lives." Cai Yunheng smiled, paused, and couldn't help asking, "Why is the mother taking such a risk, knowing that she is a deadly sin?"
"I would rather die. Go out and go shopping my lifelong pursuit." Yuan Luo said confidently.
Gu Yi and Cai Yunheng were speechless.
The three people turned around in the alley and quickly reached the market.
Yuan Luo slowed down and looked at the bustling scene in front of him. Visitors were like weaving, lanterns were like stars, the shouts of vendors around, and the chat and laughter of passers-by were mixed and bustling.
"The night market in Xingluofang is the busiest. At the beginning, there are not many people. Where do you want to go shopping?" Cai Yunheng smiled.
"Go back and set up this little thing first." Yuan Luo pointed to the little black dog in Gu Yi's hand.
The three of them had no objection, passing through Xingluofang, and soon arrived at the place where the Gu family mansion was.
Turning into the alley, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet. The gates of the mansions on both sides of the long street were closed tightly. Only the lanterns hanging high in front of the gates of the mansion were warm.
This street is mostly filled with upstarts like Gu Liangyong who came from a poor family. Because the frontier was defeated before, many people were demoted and taken away from office. Along the way, several mansions were sealed. Either the whole family is dead, or it is convicted and demoted.
Cai Yunheng's home is also nearby, there is a rare opportunity to leave the palace, he greeted the two of them, and went back to his home first.
Gu Yi took Yuan Luo to the Gu family mansion at the end of the alley.
The door opened, and an elderly old man poked his head out, saw Gu Yi's figure, and said in surprise, "The Five Young Masters are back."
His gaze fell on Yuan Luo, a little surprised, but politely did not ask, opened the gate of the mansion and the two of them greeted him in.
Yuan Luo held up the curtain and followed in the door. Only then discovered that the old man at the door had one arm missing. He was a handicapped man, but he was tall and straight, with an aggressive air that didn't match his age.
"Lao Du is a soldier taken in by his father, and there are many people with such disabilities in the family. It made the girl laugh." Gu Yi explained that after entering the house, he was no longer called Yuan Luo Niangniang.
"What's so funny about this? General Gu is sympathetic to the sergeants. No wonder he uses his soldiers like a and always wins without defeat." Yuan Luo sighed.
She had known for a long time that Gu Liangyong caring for the soldiers was nothing short of heart. The above table sets up training halls in the army. For soldiers who are wounded and disabled in the army but have good skills, they are formed as instructors to guide later soldiers. Or they may be transferred to the Axis camp of the Medical Department behind the scenes, and those who are seriously injured and unable to serve, they also allocate money for support. They also take in many disabled soldiers in the army as servants to give these people a place to live. Therefore, the morale of the Gu's army is strong, and everyone is loyal and fighting bravely.
From this point of view, Gu Liangyong's promotion to the second-rank real power general with a poor family was all in exchange for his combat achievements.
Yuan Luo still admires this kind of military commander who has made great contributions to defending the country.
"It's a pity..." Yuan Luo didn't say any more.
"Death on the battlefield is the military commander’s destiny, and there is no regret. My father used to say that it is the glory of the military commander to protect his family and the country and return home in the shroud. It's ugly, not to mention the deaths of soldiers and horses under his command, and it also harms the hundreds of people in the border." Gu Yi was very open.
Yuan Luo didn't know what it was like. Because of Gu Liangyong's defeat, Bei Rong rushed into the pass, plundered several cities, and tens of thousands of people in the north were taken away, and the lost property was countless. Several months have passed, and several generals in the northern border have joined forces, only to retake part of the territory, and the city has fallen into the hands of Bei Rong.
These are the sins of the original owner, and I hope there will be a chance to make up for it in the future.
