Chapter 421 The Substitute Died

The palace maid began to put on clothes rustlingly, "That day, Concubine Su wanted to talk to my mother-in-law alone and sent all the people serving her out of the palace. At that time, I was tidying up in my mother-in-law's bedroom. I couldn't see the situation in the outer hall.

I couldn't hear the voices either. But when I picked up the bronze mirror to clean it, I happened to see Su Bin and noticed a strange blue light flashing in her eyes..."

"Were you dazzled at that time?" The Jin Yiwei still didn't believe it. He had already put on his clothes and was about to leave in a hurry.

The palace maid was a little anxious and said: "No, I was so shocked that I almost hit the bronze mirror. When I turned to the table, I saw my mother-in-law looking at Su Bin with dull eyes as she spoke. I was struck by the image.

It’s like a witchcraft! I later asked the empress in a subtle way, and she didn’t even know what they were talking about.”

Jin Yiwei also felt something was wrong, "You keep an eye on me, and I will report this to Master Gu. We are currently at war with Beiling, and Beiling seems to know our defense situation in advance. Li Wanyi is the queen's niece, so she knows

There must be quite a few.”

As if she had accomplished something great, the palace maid immediately said with high spirits: "Okay, don't worry!"

After the two said this, they left the palace.

Shangguan Ruoli whispered: "Su Yan'er may be able to use hypnosis. If so, it will be troublesome!"

If she hypnotized the emperor while he was sleeping, she could find out any military secrets!

Dongming Ziyu's thoughts were not focused on this. He didn't have to worry about anything when the person left, so he simply let go and bullied the woman in his arms.

Shangguan Ruoli pinched the soft flesh of his waist, and when he reached the place where he pinched before, there was no one there anymore. Dongming Ziyu couldn't help crying out in pain, "Hiss, Shangguan Ruoli! You are committing murder."

Husband."

Shangguan Ruoli was startled and reached out to cover Dongming Ziyu's mouth, "Keep your voice down!"

Dongming Ziyu said resentfully: "You can't be gentler! Besides, those two people were so loud just now that they didn't attract anyone."

"..." Shangguan Ruoli lowered his voice and said, "Did you hear what I said? Su Yan'er may have hypnosis, or she may be a person who is born with hypnosis."

Dongming Ziyu blocked Shangguan Ruoli's mouth with his lips, and then fixed the back of her head, domineeringly grabbing the taste from her lips and tongue.

The remote palace, the dim moonlight, and the lingering smell of chestnut flowers in the air all told them that this was a very suitable place for something to happen.

But, is this the time for intimacy?

However, all Dongming Ziyu can think about now is separation from Shangguanruo for several days, and other unimportant people and things can be excluded.

"I heard it. I will let someone reveal this matter to Gu Lingran. This kind of thing in the harem belongs to the guards of Jinyi!" Dongming Ziyu moved his fingers and pulled Shangguan Ruoli's clothes apart...

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of fighting outside.

The direction of the sound is exactly the direction of the palace where Rejoice, Sassoon and the double are.

Shangguan Ruoli pushed Dongming Ziyu away and said, "Stop messing around, someone is probably going to attack me."

The queen wanted to kill her outside, but now that she was in the palace, she would be damned if she didn't do it.

"We have to be separated for several days, and I can't bear to leave." Dongming Ziyu's voice was resentful, with a hint of coquettishness.

Dongming Ziyu looked at her with deep eyes, the color of emotion still remaining in the corners of his eyes. At this moment, he only saw her.

Shangguan Ruoli really misses that cold and cold man who cherished his words like gold!

Patting his handsome and angry face, he coaxed softly: "Okay, good boy, come and take me home as soon as possible!"

"Well," Dongming Ziyu hugged her tightly again, rubbing his head in her shoulder, "Be careful here, I will come to pick you up soon."

Shangguan Ruoli said absently: "Okay, okay, let's go and have a look, otherwise the substitute will die."

"If you die, you will die, just a substitute!" Dongming Ziyu said so.

But he still let go of her, took her hand and used Qinggong to fly directly outside.

The two of them did not go directly to the palace, but landed on the roof and observed the palace courtyard.

I saw people fighting in the abandoned palace courtyard, some of them were eunuchs guarding them, and some of them were masked men in black.

There were dim candles in the hall, and a figure was reflected on the window. It looked like a woman.

Dongming Ziyu said: "They should be in the palace, let's go in through the window."

Shangguan Ruoli nodded, jumped off the roof with him, and approached the back window of the palace hidden in the shadows.

There were two eunuchs guarding the back window, apparently imprisoning Rejoice and the others.

Dongming Ziyu jumped down and killed the two eunuchs without saying a word.

There are assassins around anyway, so just blame the assassins.

He pushed open the window and wanted to jump in, but a cold soft sword stabbed out from inside.

Dongming Ziyu turned sideways, dodged the sword, and held the soft sword between his index finger and ring finger.

Shangguan Ruoli took the opportunity to see clearly that the person in the window was Rejoice, and hurriedly said: "Rejoice, it's me!"

"Princess! Prince!" Rejoice said in surprise.

Dongming Ziyu let go of his hand, Rejoice put away his sword and moved away from the window.

Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli jumped in from the window. Sassoon was standing at the front window holding a sword. When he saw them coming in, he was afraid that the people fighting in the yard would find something wrong, so he did not move.

Shangguan Ruoli looked at the substitute on the bed and said, "Give her the antidote and let her go with the prince."

Rejoice knelt down on one knee and reported: "She is dead. She must have died of poisoning."

"What's going on?" Dongming Ziyu transformed into a cold-blooded murderer, exuding a murderous aura that kept strangers away.

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Get up and talk, what's going on?"

Rejoice stood up and said: "I don't know this either. She died the day before yesterday. But I can't see the reason. I guess she was poisoned."

Shangguan Ruoli walked to the bed and checked the substitute's nails, whites of his eyes, and lips. Sure enough, he died of poisoning.

Rejoice felt a little guilty, and then said: "The usual food and drink slaves have checked, and there is no poison. There is no incense or anything like that here. The subordinates guessed that there must be something wrong with Dr. Zhao, but the medicine he prescribed was not good for the substitute at all.

I didn’t eat it. There was nothing wrong with the silver needles he used for acupuncture.”

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Maybe the hand moved when applying the acupuncture or feeling the pulse."

Dongming Ziyu said calmly: "The imperial doctor Zhao is the queen's man, and he also plays the role of a painter."

Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows, "Is there such a thing? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"It's not too late to say it now." Dongming Ziyu looked out the window and asked Rejoice: "How did you hide it these past few days?"

Rejoice said: "Mr. Zhao comes to treat the princess every day. In the past two days, we have made excuses to drive him away. Although he suspected that the substitute was dead, he did not dare to break in due to his status as the princess."

At this time, the eunuch in the courtyard had been beaten to the ground, and the black-clothed assassin had rushed into the palace.
