Zhao Bohu only felt a chill pass down his back: "I have been favored by the Zhou Dynasty. Since the year of Dancing Elephant, I have been deeply favored by the king and the queen. I will swear to the death to repay the favor. Please rest assured, the king, I will never let the queen.

Your Majesty died in vain."

"That's good, that's good -------" King Zhou Yi still refused to take his eyes away from Fan's face, which was as calm as a sleep, and murmured to himself. Zhao Bohu had an intuition that since tonight

Starting from now on, the Great Zhou Dynasty will start a bloody storm. I am afraid that all this is not what the queen wants, but what can he do if he summons Bohu? He can only sigh and say goodbye and leave the palace.

Although Zhao Bohu had once served as the magistrate of Haojing and was very familiar with the task of trying cases and delivering prison sentences, he actually reached a dead end in the case of Nuoyangsi.

The murderer had committed suicide in public, and although he had left a trace of his body, the list had been hanging for many days. Only a food vendor provided clues, saying that he had bought food from other places several times, and he had a vague Qidi accent.

No other clues.

Zhao Bohu reasoned in reverse, and suddenly felt that there were many doubts about the Qiandi groom who drove the horseman that day. When he turned around to arrest this person, he had already escaped and disappeared. After some investigation, he learned that this person was actually

A native of the Song Dynasty, he followed the Song Dynasty's protégé Fu Fu He into Haojing City. After that, Fu Fu He returned home in a hurry, so he stayed in Qian Mansion. Since he was good at raising horses, he helped to take care of the stables. In the meantime, he has been

He was honest and diligent, and had little contact with the outside world. This time he also helped the painter restore the appearance of the murderer, which was considered a great contribution. Now he has disappeared. It is unclear whether he disappeared voluntarily or was silenced. There are different opinions.

Seeing that it was difficult to pursue the case outside the palace, Zhao Bohu focused his investigation inside the palace. The young chamberlain who was holding the sheepskin image outside the palace gate that day committed suicide by taking poison that night (the poison had been hidden in the ear hole in advance, thinking that

He had already made up his mind to die), and the other chamberlains didn’t know anything about it. No matter how they were tortured, they all insisted that they were summoned by the chamberlain who committed suicide before to talk. They really didn’t know what happened, and they thought they really didn’t know.

.

Fortunately, the two stable women were watched closely that day. In order to prevent them from committing suicide, their hands and feet were tied with leather, and cloth strips were stuffed in their mouths to prevent them from biting their tongues. Zhao Bohu was a careful person and sent someone specially

When they went to their home outside the palace, they were all kidnapped by a group of men in black. After a fierce battle, the men in black were defeated and fled one after another. Those who were left alone all committed suicide, leaving no one alive.

Zhao Bohu escorted Po Wen's family into the palace and finally got the two women to speak. It didn't matter, but it was another bloody storm.

It turned out that three months ago, a nobleman from the palace came to see these two wives respectively. The woman's face was covered with a black gauze, so her appearance could not be seen clearly, but judging from her voice, she must be young. The woman who came was dressed in luxurious clothes.

He has a graceful demeanor, as if he comes from a wealthy family, but his conversation is cold, giving people a gloomy and extremely uncomfortable feeling.

As soon as the woman met, she went straight to the point, saying that her master was being persecuted by the queen and was in danger. She asked the two women for help to drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters for the master. How big a crime was it to murder the queen? What about the two women?

She was willing to agree. The woman handed over a package she carried with her------The package was very heavy. When Po Wen secretly opened it and took a look, she almost fainted. The yellow gold inside was all there!

A big bag of gold------you can't spend it all in a lifetime! The two women are not stupid. They want to deceive the gold first, no matter who gives it to them, and take the family with them as soon as possible.

When you have money, you won’t listen to anyone’s orders!

But ------ Zhao Bohu couldn't help but snorted in his heart when he heard this. How could this money be given for free? Eating people will kill people, and this is money to buy lives. These two stable women have already

Once you enter the game, you become a chess piece in the hands of others. You can advance or retreat at the discretion of others, and you can no longer make the decision.

After receiving the deposit, the two mothers-in-law had two tenants living in their homes. They lived and ate in the same place day and night. How could they escape? When the case of Ruoyangsi occurred, the two women-in-laws

They were arranged to work shifts in the palace. As for their home, they were closely guarded inside and outside, and not a fly could fly out.

On the day the Queen gave birth, it happened to be that these two stable women were on duty. They wanted to be brave and do some tricks, but unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhao Guogong suddenly came to assist with the delivery with her own stable women. Now it was difficult to do anything.

------When the baby was delivered, they were all planning to give up. Just then, a palace concubine came in with her personal maid.

The personal palace maid held a long-life lock made of silver chain in her hand. One of the stable ladies had a keen eye and recognized at a glance that this was the object that often hung around her grandson's neck. She immediately panicked. The palace maid approached just now.

The fourth prince was born, but he asked: "How much does this child weigh?" The hands of another stable woman who was wiping the baby's body trembled, and she recognized that this was the woman in black veil who gave her the gold.

The palace maid's eyes were threatening, and although she said nothing, the two Wen Pos felt a heavy pressure like a mountain coming down from their heads. They were so worried that they saw Wen Po of the Zhaofu holding the fourth prince and lifting the curtain to congratulate the King of Zhou.

After leaving, only the unconscious queen and the two nuns were left in the room. So, they kept doing nothing and began to violently pull out the unborn afterbirth. This would, if not cause massive postpartum hemorrhage, at least cause

Can make her unable to have children in the future------

Zhao Bohu's scalp went numb when he heard that he had formed a well-planned network, linking the inside and outside of the palace. First, he used the death of Nianyangsi to alarm the queen's fetal distress, causing premature birth. Then he bribed and coerced Po Wen, and arranged for her to be pregnant during the birth.

The queen died. She was really careful and planned for a long time!

As for which palace concubine and her personal palace maid, it is easy to find out. Zhao Bohu originally thought that he was closely related to the second concubine Ji Jiang, but he never thought that it was E Shi and her personal palace maid Mei Zi. The matter was very important.

, he immediately reported it to King Zhou Yi.

King Zhou Yi seemed to have lost his soul in the past few days. He only stayed in front of his wife's soul every day, eating and sleeping next to the coffin. He didn't want to pay attention to anything. If the matter of summoning Bohu to report did not involve the death of the queen,

I'm afraid he won't receive her either.

After listening to Zhao Bohu's report, the dark hall fell into a deathly silence. Zhao Bohu hunched over and waited for a long time before he heard the low and slightly hoarse voice of King Zhou Yi: "Gu Zeng said, no matter what

Everyone involved must be investigated to the end. E-sunzi is no exception, no matter what! Come on!"

The chamberlain Jia Zheng was guarding the door and came in after hearing the sound: "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"You accompany Duke Zhao to the inner palace, give Yi Jijiu a glass of wine, and watch her drink it with your own eyes. As the queen's concubine, now that the queen has passed away, she should follow her underground."

Zhao Bohu was surprised. He was obviously talking about Concubine E Ci, but how could it be related to Yi Ji? Although the servant who committed suicide was originally a close servant in Yi Ji's palace, but she was already dead, so there was no trace of it.

We have proof! But King Zhou Yi's face was ashen and he could not argue, so he could not say more.

As if sensing his surprise, Ji Xie added: "First torture everyone in Mei Zi and Concubine E's palace one by one. I won't believe that I can't pry the mouths of these slaves!"

He suddenly stood up and gently touched Fan Ji's coffin, as if he was talking to himself or whispering to the person in the coffin: "Ji, who harmed you? I will definitely do it one by one."

Find them out and don’t let any of them go!”

These last few words burst out from between his teeth one by one, with a chill to the bone, and Zhao Bohu felt a hair on his back.

"Bang--" There was a loud noise, and a palace maid with delicate features fell from her bed. The white silk on her neck broke off, and the pieces flew away like flying snow.

E Shi stepped forward and caught the palace maid's body with both arms, with an anxious look on her face: "Mei Zi, why are you so upset? You and I have been sisters since childhood. If you have mine, you will have yours. Why do you have to leave?"

This step?"

Meizi coughed a few times, spit out a mouthful of phlegm containing pus and blood, and said in a hoarse voice: "Mother, please let me go! If you blame me for everything, you will die anyway! I am not afraid.

of------"

"Who in the palace doesn't know that you are my personal maid, and what you do is what I do, so what's the difference? Meizi, you can't be so stupid anymore------" E-sun was still waiting to say something else.

, suddenly heard a shout from outside: "Master Jia, the chamberlain, is here! Duke Zhao is here!"

Without waiting for the news, Zhao Bohu and the chamberlain Jia had already rushed in with dozens of chamberlains and nannies. As soon as they entered the room, they saw the overturned little tadpoles on the ground, the broken white silk and the obvious wounds on Meizi's neck.

The two of them looked at each other and thought: Fortunately, they arrived in time. If it were a step later, they might not be alive!

The chambermaid Jia Xin said that she was lucky and refused to waste any more time. With a wink, the two palace ladies understood. They both stepped forward and held Mei Zi on the left and right, making her unable to move. Mei Zi was held on both sides, but she didn't know who was being held.

No matter how she held it, she felt her arms were sore and weak, and she couldn't exert any strength in her struggle. She could only twist her body left and right. The two nannies twisted her arms in the opposite direction, and she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her elbow.

Meizi gasped out in pain, almost crying from the pain. E-sun couldn't bear to see her suffering, so she angrily shouted at Jia, the chambermaid: "Sir, Meizi is my personal maid, and you are torturing and humiliating me like this in front of me.

Do you take my concubine seriously?"

The chamberlain Jia just snorted coldly: "This slave is only acting under the king's orders. Meizi is suspected of bribed Wenpo and murdered the queen. In order to prevent her from committing suicide again and destroying the witness, we have to use some means." He thought for a while,

He added: "This woman is very loyal. To prevent her from biting her tongue, do you know what you two ladies did?"

Before Meizi could scream, a nun quickly reached out and pinched her chin. Meizi let out a muffled cry of pain, and her jaw immediately came out of joint. She half-opened her mouth, unable to scream hoarsely.
