206 play

Naturally, such a thing could not be thoroughly investigated in the morning. However, for a long time, the Empress Dowager still called Luo Ming, the bodyguard who patrolled last night, and Zhang Dong and Li Qi, who were mentioned by Xia Yan, to her palace and asked them carefully.

Lin Su and Zhou Shuxian were present at that time. As for why Zhou Shuxian was present, it is actually very easy to explain. Because Lin Su specially asked Chun Que to go there to inform him that there was a good show on the Empress Dowager's side.

And Lin Su himself is the party to this matter, so naturally he will be there.

Although the Empress Dowager is a little dissatisfied, there is nothing she can do. She vaguely felt that she seemed to be fooled by Lin Su and implicated Lan Xin in this matter. However, the matter has reached this point, and the matter has been said in front of many concubines in the harem. Even if she secretly hates Lin Su in her heart, she can't do anything more.

The three guards were quickly brought in, but there was another person who came with them. A person who was unexpected by Lin Su.

"Your Majesty." She and Zhou Shuxian immediately got up to salute. Si Yu asked them to get up, and then came forward to salute the empress dowager and whispered, "There are some new fruits in the west. I think that the empress dowager has always been bitter, so I asked someone to bring two baskets for you to taste."

As he spoke, he sat next to the empress dowager and motioned the two eunuchs behind him to present the fruit in the basket. "They have just been washed and sent here. Let's have a try." With that, he signaled, "The queen and the virtuous concubine also tasted it. If you like it, I will send more to Chaofeng Hall and Fuliu Hall."

Chang Fugui and the clever maids have divided the two baskets of fruits dripping down into plates and sent them one by one. The solemn atmosphere in the room was slightly relaxed because of this. Lin Su pinched a loquat and slowly peeled it off, and his eyes slightly scratched from Si Yu's face.

He was chatting with the Empress Dowager and didn't seem to pay attention to this side, so there was no unusual expression on his face.

Lin Su ate a loquat, took the wet veil handed over by the maid behind her and wiped her hands, motioned her to help her peel off the lychee inside, and then said, "This loquat and lychee seem to have been sent earlier than usual, but the taste is as sweet as ever."

Si Ye nodded and said, "Since the virtuous concubine likes these two, send one more basket to your palace, one more basket each."

In the last sentence, Si Yu told Chang Fugui behind him. He nodded his head when he heard the words and kept his master's instructions in mind.

Zhou Shuxian glanced at Lin Su with hatred and coughed dryly, "Although the fruit is delicious, this is not why we came here today." As she spoke, she looked at the three bodyguards standing quietly.

Si Yu restrained the smile on his face, then looked at the bodyguard, and then turned his head to look at the empress dowager, "Did these three bodyguards make any mistake and anger the empress dowager?"

"How come? I don't go out much." The Empress Dowager smiled, and Yu Guang glanced at Lin Su and said, "Let Xianfei tell you."

Lin Su didn't pay much attention to the Empress Dowager's undisguised unhappy eyes, but smiled and briefly talked about the previous experience.

"So that's it." Si Yu nodded his head with a tense face, turned his head and looked at Luo Ming, and said in a low voice, "What happened last night? If it was just Lan's private memorial service for the forest beauty, how could it disturb the others in the palace?

Luo Ming hesitated for a moment before telling the story.

At that time, Lan Concubine was not just worshipping Lin Yiyi. At that time, she was very emotionally unstable and said, "Let me go... I really didn't mean to... You are dead..." and so on.

Luo Ming saw that the situation was wrong, so he immediately took someone forward to ask, but Lan Concubine suddenly shouted at that time.

"You mean, at that time, Lan said that you were sent by Lin Meiren to catch her?" Zhou Shuxian's eyes lit up and grasped the key point of Luo Ming's words. She also understood the reason why Lin Su asked her to invite her to the play. She took a meaningful look at Lin Su, and then turned her head to Luo Ming, "Why does Lan Concubine care so much about the death of Lin Meiren, and why does she think that Lin Meiren will revenge on her and pester her?"

She asked the point in one sentence, and vaguely hinted that Lan Xin had something to do with Lin Yiyi's death.

Luo Ming looked up at the four masters sitting on it, and then lowered his head and said, "I don't know why."

After a slight pause, he continued, "After all, the blue concubine is the master of the harem, so only the two maids she followed can comfort her and escort her back to rest."

After that, Zhang Dong and Li Qi were interrogated by Zhou Shuxian and the Empress Dowager, verifying what Luo Ming said before, and even asked more details by Zhou Shuxian.

"Are you sure that you heard Lan say, 'Let me go, you're dead... I'm sure you can't die anymore... You can't come back, you can't come back to revenge...' Zhang Dong, do you understand what you said? Why did Lan think that Lin Meiren's soul would come back to revenge - and come to avenge her!"

Zhang Dong's face turned a little pale and seemed to be nervous about something. Lin Su looked at him and smiled softly, turned her head to look at Zhou Shuxian, and finally opened her lips, which had been silent and closed.

"Queen, according to my concubine, Zhang Shiwei must be more concerned about the tasks assigned to her at that time. After all, Lan Concubine is the master of the harem. How can he be too close, but ask something that he, a bodyguard, should not ask.

Zhou Shuxian raised her eyebrows and glanced at the empress dowager and Si Yue. "You're right. If you want to know why the blue concubine ran to the lake at that time to pay tribute to the forest beauty at that time, and why she said that, you should still invite her... the maids around her to come and ask questions."

The Empress Dowager's face was very beautiful. Si Qian had been silent, and after a slight reminder, Lin Su began to eat the lychee meat that had been peeled off a plate, acting elegantly and calmly.

Xiangli and Xiangxing were quickly brought here by Mother Wang in the Empress Dowager's Palace. The two maids looked frightened and knelt tremblingly in the middle of the room to salute.

"I have seen the emperor, the empress dowager, the empress, the empress, and the virtuous concubine. Masters, be safe and prosperous..."

"Get up." Si Yue glanced at Zhou Shuxian, and then she also opened her mouth. The two maids stood up and dared not move at all in fear.
