However, Jiang Keji led the people's guards to search up and down, inside and outside twice, but he couldn't find any clues.
When they returned to the inner hall where the Empress Dowager was located, Jiang Keji said, ”empress dowager, I haven't found anything suspicious.”
Xu Xianfei's face showed a lofty and arrogant look and said, ”this palace is innocent. You can't confuse right and wrong.”
Isn't it really, isn't it, has nothing to do with Princess Xu Xian?
The fifth Princess Fengling looked at Lian Yueyue secretly, and Lian Yueyue frowned slightly.
The Empress Dowager looked around, got up and said, ”first lock up the lotus Wuhu, cure it, and interrogate the matter another day. All the incense in Liang Guifei's palace has been changed. Tonight, let's break up first. ”
With a happy smile on her face, Xu Xianfei hurriedly knelt down and said, ”congratulations to the Empress Dowager.”
The party were all ready to leave.
When passing a big tree, Lian Yueyue quietly stepped on the skirt of the five Princess Fengling——
”Ah...” the fifth princess was suddenly trampled, screamed, and fell to the ground.
Mammy hurried over, ”princess, princess, are you okay?”
”I......” Feng Ling struggled to get up. As soon as she looked up, she saw the eyes in the dark like the moon.
She was stunned. She looked at the tree in front of her with the eyes like the moon. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and said loudly:
”What's that? What's in the crack of the tree? ”
As soon as they heard this, they looked at it one after another and saw that a corner of a medicine bag was faintly exposed in the crack of the tree.
”Jiang Tongling, come and have a look!” Lian Xiangyue said immediately.
But Princess Xu Xian's heart was tight, and she suddenly felt a kind of uneasiness.
Jiang Keji stretched out his hand, grabbed a corner of the paper bag and carefully pulled it out.
It turned out that there was a hole in the seam of the tree. There was a paper bag hidden in the hole. Jiang Keji handed the paper bag to the Empress Dowager——
”Please have a look at the Empress Dowager.”
”Well, why is there something in here? Why doesn't the palace know?” Princess Xu Xian came over quickly and said.
”Doctor, look what this is?” The Empress Dowager frowned and ordered.
”Yes.” The imperial doctor opened the medicine bag, poured some of the medicine powder on the table, carefully identified it, looked surprised and said, ”to the empress dowager, this is the powder mixed with bamboo leaf peach and digitalis.”
what?
The Empress Dowager suddenly looked up at Princess Xu Xian.
Princess Xu Xian was surprised. Her embroidered handkerchief fell to the ground. She began to be a little flustered and murmured, ”how, how, how could it be here? It's impossible... This is not what the palace put here, this...”
Impossible, impossible.
For the sake of safety, she had cleaned these powders long ago. She didn't leave any handle in Dongxi palace. How could she
Seeing the growing uneasiness in the fundus of Princess Xu Xian's eyes, the coldness like the moon deepened, and a faint smile appeared on the top of her eyebrows——
The virtuous imperial concubine thought she didn't leave material evidence in Dongxi palace, and put it all on LianWu.
However, on that day, after the interrogation, Lian Xiangyue reached his wish for LianWu, LianWu explained the place where the medicine powder was hidden.
It turned out that LianWu separated from her sister a few years ago. She was trained as a dark guard and came to work for Princess Xu Xian.
She accidentally learned that her 12-year-old sister was sold to a prince and minister in Beijing as a domestic slave. She didn't want her sister to be a slave and wanted to save her sister.
