346 Huang xiaorou_

Huaiqing looked like he wanted to see it but was afraid of hurting his eyes.

Xu Qi ‘an took the heart and squinted at it for a moment. Then, he said considerately, “”From the looks of the scar, the wound is very deep. The weapon should be a pair of scissors or some other sharp object. Her heart has been touched. She should have died from excessive blood loss.”

Huaiqing nodded and looked out the door. He analyzed,”The medicine that can cure this kind of wound can only be used by Imperial mother and the concubines of noble consort rank in the harem.

“If the rest of you need elixirs to save your life, you don’t have to use them from the warehouse with mother’s permission or if you’ve been rewarded by father.”

The “others” she mentioned naturally did not include the princes and princesses.

The two of them left the mortuary. There was a well in the yard. Xu Qi ‘an fetched a bucket of clean water and washed his hands carefully.

Then, he scrubbed the piece of yellow silk that he found on the female corpse a few times and spread it out to dry by the well.

“Tell the person in charge of the mortuary that I still have use for the body inside. Send it to the ice cellar.” Xu Qi ‘an sent the young eunuch away.

“Xu ningyan, help bengong get a bucket of water.” Princess huaiqing stood at the side with a charming look.

According to the way she addressed him, Xu Qi ‘an could tell that she was in a good mood, so she addressed him as Lord Xu when she was being polite and distant. When she was angry, she shouted for Xu ningyan.

Huaiqing’s tone was definitely not angry, so the way he addressed Xu ningyan sounded like he was addressing a friend.

Xu Qi ‘an brought her a bucket of water. Huaiqing squatted down and rolled up his long sleeves. His fair hands were soaked in the water, and his fingers were long and slender.

Her little hands were so pretty ... He thought.

After huaiqing finished soaking his hands, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the water off.”Bengong will take you to the Imperial medicine room.”

Just as Xu Qi ‘an was about to nod, a thought suddenly came to his mind. Why did he have to throw his body into the crab Pavilion?

In the palace, there were at least dozens of them.(River crab, I don’t understand why this is blocked?) There were even more hidden wells, such as the one in the cold Palace and the one in the mortuary.

“Let’s go to the crab restaurant first.”

Lin ‘an, who was in the distance, saw the two of them coming out and walked over with light steps. “What did you find?”

“There are indeed some gains.” Xu Qi ‘an told her the findings of the autopsy. Lin’ an nodded as she listened, her small face very focused. But after Xu Qi ‘an finished speaking, her attention immediately shifted. It was obvious that her attention went in one ear and out the other.

Lin ‘an pointed at the light yellow silk hanging by the well and said in surprise, “”Dog slave, doesn’t the Lotus on it look like you ...”

Xu Qi ‘an suddenly screamed, covered his head, and rolled on the ground.

The mounted man and Huai Qing were shocked and hurriedly said,”What’s wrong with you?”

“My head, my head hurts ...” Xu Qi ‘an clutched her head in pain. She even let her Marten hat fall off, revealing her bald head. It was clear that she was really having a splitting headache.

“Just you wait, bengong will immediately go and get the imperial physician.” Ming Ming stomped her feet anxiously. She turned around and ran away, twisting her slender waist.

Princess huaiqing saw that her annoying younger sister had left, so she didn’t put on any airs. She squatted down beside him and felt his pulse.”Bengong has some medical skills ...”

He touched his pulse and found that it was indeed beating very fast. Xu Tongluo’s heart must be beating faster now.

“Your Highness ...” Xu Qi ‘an held huaiqing’s soft hands and said in pain, ” ever since I stepped into the spirit-refinement realm, I’ve been having headaches all the time. Duke Wei said that it’s because my primordial spirit is restless. Who knows when my primordial spirit might leave my body and I might die.

Huaiqing was shocked. She didn’t know about this, so he didn’t immediately withdraw his hand.

When he ordered the guards to get the imperial physician, he returned to the courtyard and found Xu Qi ‘an patting the dust off his body without a change in expression.

The annoying huaiqing was washing his hands by the wooden bucket.

“You’re fine?” The mounted man was stunned.

Hu ... I almost screwed up, but fortunately, I reacted quickly. Otherwise, if the two sisters find out that I wrote the same love letter to them and gave them the same lotus flower petals, I won’t be able to bear it ... Their affinity would definitely hit rock bottom ...

“I’m fine. It’s just a burst of pain. It’ll be fine in a while.” Xu Qi ‘an waved his hand, looking tired.

Hu ... I almost screwed up, but fortunately, I reacted quickly. Otherwise, if the two sisters find out that I wrote the same love letter to them and gave them the same lotus flower petals, I won’t be able to bear it ... Their affinity would definitely hit rock bottom ... Xu Qi ‘an did a great job. Not only did he stabilize the steering wheel, but he also held huaiqing’s hand ... He was cheering for himself in his heart.

Huaiqing lowered his head and didn’t speak. His little hand was red from being pinched, as if it still had Xu Qi ‘an’s warmth.

The framed man looked at him suspiciously.

.........

Crab Pavilion was located on the west side of the Imperial Palace, far from the palace garden where the concubines gathered. It was a large courtyard.

At this time, the palace maids had already left crab Pavilion and were working in the palace. There was only a maidservant in charge, lying on a large chair, basking in the early spring sun.

The age spots on her face were clearly visible under the sun. Her body was fat and out of shape. Her hair was white, and a simple Jade hairpin was inserted into it.

“Mother Rong, mother Rong ...”

The young eunuch called out a few times, and the old nanny slowly woke up.

Granny Rong?

Xu Qi ‘an’s childhood memories were evoked, and a famous line involuntarily appeared in her mind:

Your Majesty, do you still remember granny Rong from Daming Lake?

“The two Majesties have arrived.” The young eunuch said.

Nanny Rong took a closer look and saw that it was indeed the two most beautiful princesses in the palace who had come together.

She stood up at a speed that was not suitable for her age. She saluted and shouted, “”This old servant greets the two Majesties.”

Huaiqing looked at her and said, ” I’ve accompanied Lord Xu to investigate a case. It’s related to the female corpse that was fished out of the well today. Tell me what you know.

Granny Rong nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Xu Qi ‘an was no longer silent. He asked, ” who fished up the body? when were they found? ”

it was Xiaoyu who found it. This morning, she went to the well to get water and noticed that the sound of the bucket falling into the well was a little off. She was a little depressed, so she leaned over the well and looked at it for a long time. Aiyo, it’s a corpse. The old lady looked very excited.

Xu Qi ‘an pointed at Ishii under the locust tree. “Is it that one?” historical

...

“Yup,”

He walked to the well and looked inside. The well was deep, his vision was dim, and the water was like a mirror.

With the eyesight of an ordinary person, it would indeed take a long time to find a corpse in such a dark well.

no one noticed it yesterday? ” Xu Qi ‘an frowned.

Palace maid Huang xiaorou’s corpse had definitely been in the water for more than 24 hours.

. ‘m so angry just talking about this. This morning. they found a dead person in the well, so those wretched girls said that it was no wonder the sound was strange when they fetched water the day before yesterday ... The old woman got angry at the mention of this and scolded, ”

“None of them dug out their eyes and put them in to take a look. This old servant had to drink corpse water for two days.”

The framed man had a look of disdain.

“Do you know Huang xiaorou?” Xu Qi ‘an’s mouth twitched.

“Huang what?” the old lady was stunned.

“Huang xiaorou,” Xu Qi ‘an said.

...

“What Xiao Rou?” the nanny’s eyes widened.

“I’m not asking you, MA Dongmei,” Xu Qi ‘an said angrily,”you don’t have to reply to me like that.”

The nanny thought for a long time and suddenly realized, ” I’m just trying to confirm. I recognize Huang xiaorou. I do.

Huaiqing’s eyes lit up. She now understood why Xu Qi ‘an wanted to come to crab restaurant.

What kind of brain does this little Gong have to think so quickly?

“You know her?” she’s Consort Fu’s maid, ” Xu Qi ‘an reminded him. how could you know her? ”
