Mr. Feng was still as calm as ever, with his back bent, as if he was an old man who had just returned from a walk.
He brought back a woman dressed in black. She was tall, ordinary-looking, and tied up.
This woman was the thief who broke into Zongzheng Temple at night and wanted to steal evidence.
Xiao Jian was not injured tonight, just some blisters caused by the fire. When he came here, he glanced at the woman in black.
Hu's eyes were shocked and he immediately said: "Your Majesty, she was the one who lured me to the Lotus Garden that night!"
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the woman.
The words are cold: "Raise your head."
The woman's hands were tied and she looked extremely nervous and did not raise her head.
Tao Yang stepped forward and twisted her head upwards with his hands.
When he saw the woman's face, Qin Yun was stunned for a moment, then looked at it for a long time, and stood up suddenly: "It's you!"
He has seen this woman before, when he was in Linglong Palace, she is Wang Min's person!
In an instant, Qin Yun's suspicion was confirmed!
The person who stirred up trouble in the harem was Wang Min. She sent someone to frame Xiao Jian. Maybe the mysterious master was Wang Wei, and the person who gave orders to Xiao Dezi was Wang Min!
For a moment, Qin Yun was furious.
"Tell me, did Wang Min send you to steal the evidence?!" he roared.
The woman's name is Lan Hua, and she is the maid of Linglong Palace.
She knew her identity would be exposed, so she immediately denied it: "No."
"How dare you say it's not true?" Qin Yun had murderous intentions: "The evidence is conclusive, but you still dare to deny it!"
"Go and capture Wang Min for me. I want to see how she explains it!"
The words just fell.
Outside the royal study, a forbidden soldier stumbled in.
"Your Majesty, it's not good. The royal concubine was assassinated and was found lying in a pool of blood. She is now dying!"
These words instantly silenced the imperial study room.
What happened? Why was Wang Min assassinated again?
Feng Lao, Chang Hong and others all showed suspicious looks at the same time.
…
dawn.
Linglong Hall.
Qin Yun is here.
The assassin has been caught, and they are the maids in Wang Min's own palace. They were taken away to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment together with Lanhua, and they will face the most cruel and inhumane interrogation.
The imperial doctor slowly withdrew and said respectfully to Qin Yun: "Your Majesty, the concubine's life is not in danger, but she has lost too much blood. I'm afraid it will take a long time to recuperate her body."
Qin Yun looked at an imperial doctor indifferently and asked with deep meaning: "Is the wound of the noble concubine deep?"
"Deep!" The old doctor frowned and said firmly: "The imperial concubine's abdomen was almost pierced by a dagger. If it is discovered later, there will be no way to save her!"
Qin Yun rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.
This matter is becoming more and more confusing.
He waved his hand casually, letting the doctors leave, and then walked into the palace alone.
Wang Min was lying on the bed, her face was as pale as paper, and her breath was like a gossamer, like a leaf blown up by the wind, which could disappear at any time.
If it's self-inflicted, it's a cruel trick.
Is that a bit too harsh?
If she was really an innocent victim, how could Lanhua explain that?
Qin Yun didn't know what to think about Wang Min, but after all, they were married, and it was not good to torture her when she was seriously injured.
Furthermore, the Wang family is so powerful that if Wang Min refuses to admit it, it will be difficult for him to be truly ruthless.
Standing in front of the bed, Qin Yun was speechless for a long time.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
Wang Min suddenly opened his eyes, and his dry red lips slightly opened.
Qin Yun subconsciously wanted to help her, but he quickly took it back and said with a cold expression: "You are injured, so you should have a good rest. After the injury is healed, I still have something very important to ask you!"
Wang Min raised a hand with difficulty, trying to catch Qin Yun, her beautiful eyes full of expectation and innocence.
"Your Majesty, I know you have misunderstood."
"I accidentally discovered the conversation of the maids in the palace today. They plotted to kill General Xiao, and they also said that they would put the blame on me on behalf of their master."
"I wanted to report to the Holy One, but I accidentally stepped on a branch and alerted them."
"Then, I was killed and I woke up lying here."
Hearing this, Qin Yun sneered and said, "Is there such a coincidence in the world?"
"The maids in your own palace are actually the hidden killers of others. What a coincidence that you heard their conversation today?"
"snort!"
He snorted again, feeling extremely disgusted with Wang Min's two faces.
Seeing this, Wang Min shed tears from the corners of his eyes. His look made people feel pity for him.
"Your Majesty, is this really the case? Is this my concubine going to make fun of her own life?"
"Although the Wang family and the Xiao family have always been at odds with each other, and the Wang family is happy about the collapse of the Xiao family, your Majesty, please don't forget that the Wang family also has many rivals with different opinions!"
Qin Yun's expression remained cold.
From the first assassination to the fire last night, so many things have happened. It is impossible to say that it has nothing to do with the Wang family. And as a young lady of the Wang family, how could Wang Min stand by and watch?
When he saw that the incident was exposed, he resorted to a bitter trick and threw out an unwarranted smoke bomb to make himself think that there was someone else behind the scenes.
These reasons are just the reasons Wang Min came up with to shirk responsibility.
If the Wang family had not been so powerful and if there was no direct evidence, Qin Yun would have immediately deposed her as a noble concubine.
At this time, Wang Min struggled to get up.
Her pretty face is a bit sickly and very unhealthy white.
He stepped on the ground with his bare feet, covered the wound on his abdomen with his left hand, held the edge of the bed with his right hand, frowned, and tried to kneel down with great difficulty.
"Your Majesty, if you don't believe me and think that the assassination of General Xiao by the maid of Linglong Palace is related to me, then imprison me in the sky prison."
"After the investigation is clear, it won't be an exaggeration to let my concubine come out."
"My concubine, I am willing to do so."
She said weakly, with a hint of understanding smile on her lips, which was so sensible that it made people feel heartbroken.
If the original owner were here in a different body, he would probably be heartbroken.
But now Qin Yun has no trouble in his heart. Instead, he feels that this woman is very scary, her advance and retreat are well-founded, and her city is extremely deep!
"Yes or no, I know it in my heart, and I will naturally check it out before drawing a conclusion!"
"You should stay in Linglong Palace to recuperate during these days. You are not allowed to go there without my order!" Qin Yun was cold, his voice a bit scolding.
Hearing this, Wang Min's delicate body trembled, and her eyes were a little ugly. Is this a disguised form of grounding?
"Your Majesty, will you come to see me?"
She took a few steps forward on her knees, fell to the ground, and hugged Qin Yun's feet.
Qin Yun rolled his sleeves and glanced at Wang Min condescendingly and indifferently.
"I have advised you to take care of yourself. Since you want to play, I will play with you to the end!"
After saying that, he broke away from Wang Min's hand and left Linglong Hall, unwilling to stay even for a moment longer.
Wang Min fell to the spot, his eyes kept changing, and he was speechless for a long time.
Qin Yun's attitude towards her was worse than she imagined. Although she barely passed this test, she was no different from entering the cold palace.
She slowly stood up, still weak, but obviously not as immobile as before.
Suddenly, a cold light shot out of her soul-stirring eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What happened? This idiot emperor has become so shrewd now!"
"No, if this continues, the Wang family will be outlawed by the Xiao family sooner or later. I want to take back the initiative. I don't believe you, Qin Yun, are so hard-hearted!"
Her eyes brightened slightly, as she had thought of an excellent solution.
