Zheng Guangde snatched the sachet from her hand, and tremblingly approached Xue Yan, compared the smell on the sachet and the doll, poured out the sachet and checked it, before kneeling in front of Emperor Qingping and returning to order. : "Returning to Your Majesty, it is indeed Cunxiang Pill."

At this point, the evidence is solid.

These few days, only Dian Cui has the key to the warehouse in his hand. But if it was said that this thing was here long ago, and Diancui didn't know about it, it would make sense; however, there was actually a smell of Cui's body on this doll, and this fragrance was unique to her.

It can never be anyone else.

"...Diancui?" Concubine Shu was startled and looked at her in a daze. Seeing that Diancui had collapsed to the ground, she just kept shaking her head, saying that she was wronged.

But now that she was wronged, no one would believe her anymore. Emperor Qingping looked at her, and was about to ask her why she did this and who ordered her when Xue Yan suddenly spoke.

"Since Aunt Cui said she was wronged, then it's better to make a judgment after the royal father finds out."

When no one was paying attention, he threw the puppet back into the box lightly. An understated action, like throwing an insignificant object, and like a guillotine that was slowly settled, neatly cut off a human head.

"If you want to find out if she made something, why don't you search her house?" Xue Yan looked at Emperor Qingping and said.

There was no slight or disrespect in his tone, but it made Emperor Qingping feel uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart, as if there was an invisible force trampling on his majesty as an emperor.

But he was right. Emperor Qingping suppressed his displeasure, waved his hand, and instructed Lingfu and Zheng Guangde to say, "Go and search for it."

On the other hand, Jun Huailang, who was next to him, was a little flustered and looked sideways at Xue Yan.

Just now, Dian Cui could already be convicted. Curse the concubine, no matter who is behind her, she cannot escape the death penalty. But now, she is going to search her room again. If she does it clean and there is no handle left in the room, then what?

Xue Yan looked sideways and glanced at him.

Those amber eyes, calm and a little soothing, just one glance calmed Jun Huailang's flustered emotions.

It didn't take long for Zheng Guangde to run back and return to his life.

He rolled and crawled in a trance, tripped over the threshold when he entered the door, and fell to his knees in front of Concubine Shu. And behind him, Lingfu also returned with some objects, all of which were needles and threads, similar to the fabrics used to make dolls.

"...Niangniang!" He lay on the ground and raised his head, his voice trembling.

"……what happens?"

Concubine Shu was in a trance at first. She saw that the evidence was in front of her, and Dian Cui fell to her knees on the ground, but she couldn't say anything to explain.

This palace maid who has been with her for almost 20 years, she trusts Dian Cui so much, and has never treated her badly, so how could she betray herself?

Seeing Zheng Guangde kneeling in front of her, she was a little dazed and reluctantly asked.

Seeing that Zheng Guangde's tears were about to fall, he was holding a cloth bag in his hand and spread it out in front of Concubine Shu.

It's a few paper bags, all of which are packed with powdered medicine.

"What is this?" Emperor Qingping asked.

Zheng Guangde looked sideways, and with red eyes he stabbed a little green, then put the object on the ground, and kowtowed with trembling: "Go back to Your Majesty, it's all powdered medicine. Some people don't recognize, the servant has already sent people to find an imperial doctor, and the rest A few, saffron, musk, and persimmon stalk powder."

Immediately, everyone present was shocked.

These are common medicinal herbs and their effects are well known. Saffron and musk are both contraceptive drugs, and persimmon pedicles are cold and cold, and if they are taken regularly, women will lose their fertility.

Concubine Shu's feet softened and she almost fell, but was supported by the maid next to her.

"...Diancui?" Her voice trembled, barely speaking, and called out to Diancui.

And Dian Cui, who was kneeling on the ground, also stared blankly at the thing in Zheng Guangde's hand.

How could it be... Even though she did all these things, she didn't leave any clues in her room at all.

She had already burned all the cloth heads of the same fabric. And that Bizi's medicinal powder, she has been hiding in the tea pot she is drinking tea. The medicinal powder was given to her by Yi Jieyu, and the recipe was very secretive. There were no obvious medicinal materials such as safflower and musk. Even if it was found in a tea pot, it would not be noticeable.

Who, knowing all the things she did, sneaked into her room unknowingly and hid the evidence in it!

Dian Cui knew that no matter who it was, that person had made a plan, just waiting for her to reveal her secrets today.

That witch doll, she can still think that she has a grudge against Concubine Shu, and she made it herself; but the prescription for avoiding the child, once an imperial doctor comes to investigate, will inevitably reveal its contents.

She is a little palace maid, and it is better to find musk and other things, but how could she find such a complicated recipe by herself?

It was inevitable that she would be tortured and asked to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes.

Dian Cui slumped to the ground, her eyes were red, and she glanced at Concubine Shu.

She has been lonely since she was a child and served by Concubine Shu's side. But her only only brother was controlled by Yi Jieyu's family, and she couldn't abandon her brother.

And what she doesn't want to admit is that she grew up with this proud girl since she was a child. She is the master and she is a slave. Seeing her growing up in the palm of her hand, she has never eaten a single bit since she was a child. bitter.

She couldn't hide her jealousy.

Dian Cui kowtowed at her, and when no one could react, she suddenly rushed out and slammed her head into the copper-clad corner of the box next to her.

Suddenly, Jun Huailang's eyes were covered by a dry and warm hand. The hand was clearly articulated, and the palm was covered with a thin layer of calluses. It seemed that he deliberately slowed down his movements, but he still turned his gaze with an unquestionable strength.

"Don't look." He heard Xue Yan's voice ringing in his ears.

——

Diancui's death made Mingluan Palace gloomy for several days.

People have always trusted Dian Cui, but she was the only one who followed her lead, but she didn't expect that Dian Cui would be bought by someone.

It's no wonder that Niangniang has not given birth to a child for ten years, and the pain is unbearable every month when the letter arrives.

They have been doing things together for many years. Even if they are both slaves, they still have feelings. However, they did not expect that this should be the closest servant of Concubine Shu, but it has hurt her for so many years.

When Jun Huailang came out of the east side hall, he walked along the corridor to the main hall, and heard Zheng Guangde instructing a group of eunuchs and palace maids to clean in the front yard, cursing while commanding.

"Who knows that the mother is kind-hearted, but she raised such a white-eyed wolf! You saw it when the corpse was carried out that day. If the lard is blinded by the heart and does such a thing, this is the end!"

His voice was shrill and loud, sounding yin and yang from a distance.

Several palace servants in Mingluan Palace next to him knew that Zheng Guangde was not relieved, and was still looking for a reason to scold Dian Cui. Everyone was suffocating in their hearts, and they whispered to hear the words.

"Who can be as capable as that one? I can't see how good the goddess treats her."

"Yeah, who of us can have this kind of heart?"

"In the next life, she will become a beast, so she will not be in vain for the good things she has done in this life!"

A group of eunuchs and palace maids murmured, until Jun Huailang approached, only to find him.

Zheng Guangde hurried forward to salute him: "His Royal Highness, are you going to the main hall?"

He was so busy his voice was hoarse. On weekdays, he and Dian Cui handle all the affairs in the palace, but now that one has died, the lives of both of them are left to him alone. Now that the New Year is coming, there are already a lot of things to do, and such a big thing happened in Mingluan Palace. In the past few days, he was too busy to touch the ground.

Jun Huailang smiled at him: "Eunuch Zheng, please get up. You've worked hard for the past few days."

Zheng Guangde hurriedly said: "It's not hard, it's not hard! It's your Highness, but you should spend more time with your maiden. She's not feeling well these days."

Jun Huailang knew it.

Even Emperor Qingping didn't know about Diancui's medicine for Concubine Shu. He had wronged Concubine Shu this time, and seeing someone in the palace hurt him like this, his mind was already filled with pity.

He almost emptied half of the imperial hospital to treat Concubine Shu, but he said that it was cold and cold, so he could only take care of it slowly. In these days, Emperor Qing Ping moved a lot of rewards to her palace, and he came to see her every day, but Concubine Shu was still not happy.

Jun Huailang knew that she was hurt by the people around her.

When Emperor Qingping was not around, he would go and talk with Concubine Shu. It happened that Emperor Qingping was not here today, so he went to Concubine Shu early in the morning.

Jun Huailang nodded: "I can save it, father-in-law can rest assured."

Zheng Guangde nodded again and again, and asked him to go over.

In the palace of Concubine Shu, incense was burning, and the earth dragon was burning hot. As soon as you stepped in, it was warm and fragrant. There were carved beams and painted buildings around, and the furnishings and decorations were all exquisite, as if you had stepped into the residence of a fairy.

When the maids saw Jun Huailang coming, they saluted him one after another, and pointed to him, saying that Concubine Shu was in the warm pavilion at this time.

Jun Huailang walked all the way in, bypassing the layers of gauze and painting screens, and saw Concubine Shu sitting under the window of the warm pavilion with a few pieces of fur by her hand.

"Aunt, what are you doing?" Jun Huailang slowed down, saw Li, and stepped forward.

Diancui had to get rid of him, but Jun Huailang still felt bad when he saw Concubine Shu's sullen appearance.

In the entire Jun family, no matter the elder or the junior, who would be willing to let Concubine Shu suffer? But there was such a person beside Concubine Shu.

Seeing him come in, Concubine Shu looked up and then smiled.

Still sullen and lacking in spirit.

"Come here." She smiled and moved Jun Huailang to a seat beside her.

"These pieces are only rewarded by His Majesty. Look, which color looks better?" she said.

"You can go to the west hall in a while and ask Xue Yan's shoulder size. The New Year is coming soon. I have nothing to do and I will make a cloak for a few of you."
