The Liang Palace seemed particularly quiet in the morning. The concubines who wanted to fight for the wind and be jealous were still immersed in the grief of not being visited by His Majesty last night, and the struggle for a new day had not yet begun.

The little eunuch with his head down in the garden was holding a big iron broom, sweeping the fallen leaves meticulously, making a clattering sound.

Looking closely, there were many golden apricot leaves falling in the short bushes, and they looked like fresh flowers blooming.

Chi Shi followed Zhou Xian toward your Yuhua Palace.

Yuhua Palace is in a corner of the west side of the palace. I don’t know which generation of favorite concubines died here before, and gradually became deserted. It was not until Zhou Xian’s father became emperor that because there were too many female relatives in the palace, the Yuhua Palace was renovated and became a large palace.

When we arrived at Zhou Yuan, the harem was empty and the Yuhua Palace became deserted again.

"Yuhua Palace is now used as a warehouse, which is relatively close to the palace gate. Sometimes new tributes are added everywhere, so they are put here first. Mei Taipin's birthday is coming soon. According to the customs in the palace, they will have to make a new dress and come to Yuhua Palace to choose satin."

"The concubines and concubines rarely show up except for festivals. In previous years, the birthdays of the concubine Mei were all cloths that Chunlan came to pick up."

Zhou Xian explained in a low voice, Chi Shi nodded. Chunlan, a little palace maid, naturally could not be the master messenger behind the scenes. Who is the master standing behind her? Is it Mei Taipin, Ling Taiping, the Empress Dowager, or someone who has not yet surfaced?

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please stay," the two of them were talking, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind them.

Zhou Xian stopped and turned around and saw an old eunuch running over panting, "Your Highness, please stay. Mr. Guo, the Minister of Justice, was discussing matters with His Majesty in the study and talked about a case. The two almost started fighting."

The old eunuch said, and suddenly saw the Chi beside Zhou Xian, and he braked suddenly and quickly changed his mind.

"Ahem... Your Majesty has different opinions from Lord Guo, so I want to ask Your Highness to go over and discuss it."

Zhou Xian frowned and looked at Chi Shi, "The old man Guo from the Ministry of Justice is the most harsh. He even wants to be sentenced to a death sentence when he goes out to steal a chicken!"

Chi Shi waved his hand, which was a little funny.

She also heard of the name of Guo Cheng, the Minister of Justice. This old man is already seventy years old this year. He is still blind and still has no sound and sound, like a bell walking with wind. He likes to use the dictionary and will never be sentenced to five years if he can be sentenced to ten years.

If you can dismember the body of five horses, you will never be beheaded. It is said that the Guo family is round, and there is no way to pick up the road within eight miles. You will not close your door at night, for fear that you will be caught by him. Good guy, when he was imprisoned, he was as deep as the sea, and from then on, he was free to be a passerby.

Zhou Yuan was so whispering, and Guo Cheng was the same. If the two had the same opinion, it would be fine. If they were different, the good guys would be overturned.

"Go quickly, this Yuhua Palace is huge, I can still get lost," Chi Shi thought and said to Zhou Xian.

Zhou Xian was a little embarrassed.

When the old eunuch saw it, his heart skipped a few times. The rumors in the capital were indeed true.

His Highness, the wise and powerful King of Chu, was completely fascinated by Chi Corpse, the male vixen.

"Your Highness..." The old eunuch wiped the sweat beads on his forehead and made a tremolo of praying.

Chi Shi was shocked and pushed Zhou Xian, "You go quickly, otherwise I will have goose bumps all over my body."

Zhou Xi nodded, patted Chi's hand, and walked quickly with the old eunuch.

Chi Shi raised his eyebrows, shook his sleeves, and walked towards the Yuhua Palace.

There was no guarding the door of the hall. As soon as I entered, I saw an old eunuch with white hair, lowering his head and sweeping the fallen leaves. On his left shoulder, there was a shiny parrot.

When he saw Chi, he was stunned at first, "You are? You are Chi Corps. Your Highness has explained that I am the only one in the palace. Eunuch Tian, ​​who is in charge of affairs, will come over only when someone wants to get something."

He said, raised his hand and pointed to an open door in the side hall.

"The fabric is all inside, you can go in and look for it yourself."

Chi Shi nodded and headed towards the side hall.

Compared with the imported small doors, the head here looks unexpectedly wide. The rows of shelves are filled with all kinds of brocades, all of which are newly tributed from all over the country. The exquisite embroidery patterns are on it. Even when I see the pool, I feel dazzled when I see it.

The entire side hall became like a library in later generations, full of shelves, leaving only a narrow road for people to walk.

Walking into the middle, it feels like being in a maze.

Chi Shi looked over and saw that Chunlan was not seen.

After walking through two shelves and walking for a while, Chi Shi sniffed and frowned. She accelerated her pace towards the depths of the line.

At the end of the long end, there was a messy embroidered shoe, and the smell of rust in the fragrance-smoked scent of the scented room.

It was bloody.

Chi Shi thought, and walked quickly following the smell. After passing through the rows of cloth racks, his eyes suddenly became clear.

I saw the last row of racks that had fallen to the ground, and the fabric above was scattered all over the floor.

On the pile of cloth, a woman was lying in disheveled clothes.

Her hair was scattered, and the collar on her chest was torn apart, revealing a bellyband embroidered with pink lotus flowers. Her face was covered in blood, and there was a clear gap on her forehead, making it difficult to see her face.

Next to her was a blue brick, and the blue brick was covered with blood. It was obvious that the murderer used this to smash her head.

Chi Shi thought, walked over quickly, squatted down, and explored the woman's breath. Sure enough, he was no longer angry.

She sighed lightly, picked up the purse that the woman hung around her waist, and saw the words "Chunlan" embroidered on it.

This should be the person she is going to meet today.

Someone rushed ahead of her and Zhou Xian and killed someone to silence him.

But when the murderer silenced the patient, why did he use a brick to hit him hard and tore the deceased's clothes open... Chi Shi thought, frowned.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

A scream sounded, Chi Shi turned his head and saw a little palace maid twitching her throat and screaming. Next to her, there were several people with horror on her face.

The old eunuch who was sweeping the floor outside heard the noise, threw the broom away and ran in.

Chi Shi stood up and looked over with great interest.

The little palace maid shouted again, "Kill! Kill! Kill! He... He killed Aunt Chunlan! Tai Concubine, Aunt Chunlan...Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Chi Shi stood with a cloth rack and held his arms in his arms.

She suddenly remembered that when she saw Cui Jiangyan for the first time, Cui Jiangyan was a coroner. She died when she saw someone. Naturally, she went up to check it out, but was regarded as the murderer and caught.

Obviously, it was her turn.

Someone killed Chunlan and slandered her that Chi Jiu was the murderer.
