"What's your name?" Meng Zixian looked at the servant girl and asked.
"Servant Bai Yunlai." Because Bai Yunlai was holding his concubine by his side, he didn't move very well and could only nod slightly.
"First settle down your master properly, then tell me about it."
Bai Yunlai nodded and sent the girl back to her room. When she came out, an hour had already passed.
"Normally, Huai Zhaoyi would have taken good care of us and would have given us everything. If it weren't for her, we would have already starved to death." Bai Yunlai spoke with complete sincerity.
"The harem no longer has our records, but fortunately, they did not, otherwise we might have been silenced." Thinking back to that day, Bai Yunlai seemed to have some lingering fear.
She slowly began to explain, and Meng Zixian listened attentively.
On the night that Huai Qingge was killed, a few uninvited guests came here.
However, these people were all wearing black cloaks that tightly covered their faces, making it impossible to see their human faces. Bai Yunlai let out a deep sigh, "Huai Yaoyi's servant girl was strangled to death by those people. When I looked through the window, her eyes were still staring at me."
"After that, there would be an argument in the room. I did not dare to go close, so I did not hear it clearly." Bai Yunlai sat very properly. He placed his hands together and unconsciously twined his fingers together. "My master has woken up at this time. She is truly worried. If she wants to go and see, I can only hold her back."
"After those people came out of Huai Zhaoyi's room, I saw one of them and he looked at us. I was worried that they would come in and take Master and hide under the bed."
Bai Yunlai's breathing quickened, as if he was afraid.
So it was those people who came in. Perhaps they saw that this place was really shabby, but there were traces of having lived here before. These people were looking around.
"For the next few days, we didn't dare to go out. I bravely went to Huai Zhaoyi's room and discovered that she was already dead, but we didn't dare to go out and say anything. Otherwise, we would have exposed that there was actually someone in the room." Bai Yunlai was slightly vexed.
"Even if we were to say it out loud, no one would believe us."
Bai Yunlai took out an item from his room and opened the box. He discovered that it was a bamboo hairpin. This hairpin was extremely exquisite and beautiful; it was obviously not something that ordinary women would use.
"There are still a few broken pearls inside. I've picked them all up, Zhu Chai. This style, it's definitely a concubine." Bai Yunlai calmly said.
Meng Zixian took it and looked it over in her hand. She found it was a little familiar. Of all the concubines she had met before, the ones she had seen the most were Dai Jade Sunflower and Chen Huaizhi.
She held it in her hand as if she was playing with it unintentionally: "You guys are still staying here? Aren't you afraid that they will continue to look for you? "
Bai Yunlai shook his head. "We've left. Where else can we go? My master's health is not good, and he's been frightened. Walking is also a problem."
"If you can find out who killed Huai Zhaoyi, please help me." Bai Yunlai stood up and gave a big bow.
Meng Zixian had originally come to try her luck, but now that she had obtained these things, it was impossible not to check. Now that everyone was dead, she definitely had to give them a thorough explanation.
He suddenly thought of Song Qi's words and told her not to interfere in this matter. After a few times, Song Qi's words sometimes made sense. If she knew that there was a reason, then she would go and touch the reverse scale.
Furthermore, Huai Qingge had once been friends with her. Now, it was certain that it was unfair for her to sit idly while people were killed.
"Alright, if I can get justice, I will definitely be able to help."
Meng Zixian took the box and left. Seeing that she had finally returned, Ling'er let out a sigh of relief. "Little Lord, it's been a very cold night. It would be bad if you had a cold."
"Ling'er, help me contact Song Qishen and have him come to the palace to meet me."
Ling'er nodded.
Ling'er did things very quickly. Sure enough, on the second night, Song Qi slowly arrived.
Meng Zijue looked at him and felt indescribably excited. However, as he was thinking about it, he forcefully suppressed his excitement and took out the box. "Huai Qingge died unjustly."
Song Que frowned: "Didn't I tell you not to interfere?"
Meng Zixian looked into his eyes. They were clear and clear, black and white, and his pupils were like black obsidian. "I know she didn't commit suicide and was killed by someone. How could I do that?"
"Although Huai Qingge had set me up before and made me wish I could beat her up, people are compassionate after all. She is already very pitiful, and now that she has been inexplicably killed, with evidence in her hands that can kill her own family, isn't that even more pitiful?"
"If I don't find out who the real culprit is, I'll only see her every night in my dreams. I won't be able to sleep or eat in peace."
Meng Zixian looked worried and a little sad. Her leather bag looked like the sickly beauty she was before, but now, her delicate eyebrows were furrowed. Her eyes were filled with worry, causing people to feel pity for her.
"Where do you want to start?"
"You, you agreed?" Meng Zixian was a bit surprised as she didn't expect Song Qishen to agree.
"The Qi family has been loyal for generations, and they are about to be exiled now. The evidence has a huge loophole, and I think if we don't investigate thoroughly, this court will belong to someone." Song Qishen said seriously.
He was also a bit worried and worried in his heart. Currently, the imperial court seemed to be pushing out those truly good officials, bringing up those deceitful officials and coaxing Gu Jingyuan into a daze. Recently, they had prepared to welcome a new batch of concubines.
All of these beauties that were like flowers and beautiful flowers had entered this palace at such a good age. Gu Jingyuan was the kind of person that could not bear to do so.
Moreover, not all of these girls had a clean background. They had all sorts of benefits to play with, so it would be even more difficult for him and Gu Jing Cheng to fight in the future.
"I've thought about this hairpin for a long time. Finally, I know whose hairpin it belongs to." From yesterday onwards, Meng Zixian took the hairpin and looked left and right, only to find that there were still some blood stains on it. The appearance of a phoenix on the verge of flying had made it seem like it had been reborn.
"Although the harem is looking out for Jingyuan's mood to promote the position of concubine, I've asked about it. The rewards and penalties are clear, and the allocation should be based on the ranking of concubine."
"Who do you think is worthy of the phoenix hairpin?"
Song Que's eyes suddenly became sharp as he looked at Meng Zixian. Meng Zixian also knew that she had touched Song Que's reverse scale, but she had to say it!
