Chapter 956 The Secret Of The Luoxue Pavilion (Part Two) (1/2)
Hearing Yun Shang's words, Pei Lan knew that she might have done something wrong, so she stood there awkwardly and uneasily.
Luo Qingyan frowned and said, ”I think the maid who cleaned the room is suspicious.”
Hearing Luo Qingyan's words, Yun Shang also realized that if as Pei Lan said, the servant came in to clean the vase, and she should only wiped it with a cloth. How could she bring out the plum blossoms in the bottle? And it happened to be the moment Yun Shang left after she found the secret of the plum blossom. Such a coincidence was too obvious.
”Do you remember who the maid is?” Yun Shang asked softly.
Pei Lan thought for a while and shook her head, ”I can't remember it.”
Yun Shang frowned. Was there anyone else in the Weiyang Palace watching her besides Chen Ke? And the other one was probably not as simple as Chen Ke, who was just staring at her. Although she didn't know what was in the vase, it was not a good thing. That person must want her life.
But Pei Lan didn't remember what the servant looked like. There were many servants in the Weiyang Palace, so it would be difficult to investigate. What she could do now was just to guard herself against it.
Yun Shang smiled and asked Pei Lan to leave. Then she raised her head and said gently, ”It doesn't matter. A fox will show its tail.”
Two days later, Li Fuhua's corpse was found in a well in a very remote palace. The corpse had been soaked and swollen. It must have been there for quite a while. When the servant came to report this, Yun Shang couldn't help but frown. ”It's new year's Eve. What a bad luck! Go and ask Li Qianmo to have a look.”
The guard obeyed. Yun Shang thought for a while and finally stood up, ”Let's go. Let's have a look.”
The palace was in the east of the Imperial Palace, and was in the other end of the palace, so that day Li Fuhua should have run across the whole Imperial Palace to escape from the Neishi Bureau. When Yun Shang arrived at the gate of the shabby palace where Li Fuhua's corpse was found, she noticed that the palace was in ruins. Even the plaque at the gate fell to the ground, and it was covered with vines.
”Watch out, your majesty!” Qin Yi hurried forward and helped Yun Shang up, ”The steps are covered with moss. It has snowed for two days, and the ground is wet and slippery.”
