Chapter 20 Window Paper

Zhao Xu walked in, ignored the palace maid who was saluting, and stared at Concubine Wuxian.

There is something wrong with this woman’s reaction!

Zhao Xu looked cold and said directly: "Tell me, if you don't want to help, you will have a way out."

Concubine Wu Xian hugged Zhao Qi, shook her head desperately, and kept shrinking backwards.

Zhao Qishu was blind. He turned his ears left and right and said anxiously: "Official family, believe me, neither I nor Xiaoniang want to harm you. I was in the palace that day and I never went out..."

Zhao Xu's eyes were always staring at Concubine Wu Xian. Concubine Wu Xian hugged Zhao Xu, shrank her head, and looked scared. She reached out to cover Zhao Qi's mouth and stopped him from speaking.

Zhao Xu's thoughts were circulating. This Concubine Wuxian must have problems, but judging from her appearance, she should not have the courage to harm him.

Zhao Xu tried his best to remain calm, thinking and said, "Grandmother is angry. You will be killed at noon tomorrow. It doesn't matter if you die. Zhao Qi, don't think about it? Do you think that everything will be fine if you die? He even dares to harm me, Gao Gongji dares to kill him, but Zhao Qi will not dare? No matter what you think, what he says, I can tell you 100% that after you die, Zhao Qi will die soon, and kill the roots!"

Concubine Wu's eyes widened, with a fearful expression, and hugged Zhao Qi tightly. She hesitated first and then buried her head, not saying a word.

Zhao Qi seemed to have heard something, hugged Concubine Wu Xian and said, "Little Mother, you..."

Concubine Wu Xian shook her head desperately, holding Zhao Qi's words and refused to speak out.

Zhao Xu looked at her expression and frowned deeply.

Who made Concubine Wu Xian so scared? At this time, he still refused to reveal it. The murderer was sure that Concubine Wu Xian dared not speak, so he didn't silence her?

Is it from the palace? Or outside the palace?

Zhao Xu was so troublesome that he seemed to be suspicious and unlikely to be anyone.

The current situation is too complicated, and various forces are intertwined, making it difficult to clarify the clue.

At this time, the guard's yellow gate came over and whispered: "The official family, don't say much. The Empress Dowager has an order and no one can see them. You should leave quickly."

Zhao Xu glanced at him and knew that he could not ask anything for the time being, so he had to look at Concubine Wu Xian and said, "I think it through clearly and send someone to notify me before I die."

After saying that, Zhao Xu left.

Zhao Qi shouted behind him, and Zhao Xu also pretended that he had not heard it and could not find the real murderer behind the scenes. Concubine Wu Xian could only be a scapegoat, and he could not save him!

After leaving Kanghe Palace, Zhao Xu was still thinking deeply. It seemed to be close to the truth, but the real murderer was just a layer of paper, but he couldn't break it!

Tangerine Pi and Chu You looked solemn and dared not say much.

They originally thought they were Empress Dowager Gao, but now Concubine Wu Xian appeared again. This matter is getting more and more complicated, and they dare not think about it anymore.

Zhao Xu returned to Funing Palace. As soon as he walked in, he saw Zhao Ji holding a stool, stretching his head, and heading towards a team of palace maids coming: "Wow, wool, wool..."

The palace maid held the plate and said, "Your Highness Eleventh, we are giving it to the official..."

"Woom wool wool..."

Zhao Ji didn't care, he stretched out his head and opened his mouth wide and said that he was woolly.

When the two palace maids were about to approach, he threw down the stool, landed with both hands, ran over like a dog, and chased "Wangwangwang".

Zhao Xu's mouth twitched, what is this little bastard doing?

Zhao Xu walked over, Zhao Ji turned his head and looked over, his eyes wide open, jumped over, lay on the ground, sticking his tongue out, and panting, "Official family, you are back, don't worry, no one noticed..."

Zhao Xu took a deep breath and took Zhao Ji's collar into the study.

“Ah~”

Not long after, screams came from the study.

A long time later, Zhao Ji left the study room, raised his head and chest out, and left Funing Palace seriously.

But those who walk in will see that his posture is a little awkward and his face is bulging.

Zhao Xu sat on the chair with his eyes closed. By now, it was nothing more than his stealing out of the palace.

Chu You walked in and whispered: "Official family, please think of a solution as soon as possible."

He also realized that Concubine Wu Xian was not the real murderer. If Concubine Wu Xian was executed like this, the real murderer would be completely safe and the official family would still be in danger at any time.

Zhao Xu closed his eyes and said, "You are staring outside, let me be quiet first."

Chu You looked at Zhao Xu's tired expression and responded, quietly retreating.

Tangerine Pi is also searching for news and investigating recent events.

Zhao Xu lay on the chair, his mind kept turning, and repeated the clues and suspicious people.

But he lacks a clear direction, or clue, evidence.

The person behind this scene did it too straightforwardly, and no clue or evidence was left behind.

Now, even if Zhao Xu remembered what happened that day, or if Concubine Wu Xian spoke, he might not find any definite evidence to prove the person behind the scenes.

This person must have a special identity, maybe in the palace or outside the palace, and it must be very unusual! Not to mention Zhao Xu, even Empress Dowager Gao may not be able to move lightly!

I don’t know how long it took, but Zhao Xu let out a light breath, but there was still no clue.

"Who will it be?"

Zhao Xu sat upright, rubbed his face, and couldn't figure it out.

At this time, Chenpi knocked on the door outside and whispered: "Official Family"

"Come in." Zhao Xu said.

Chenpi pushed open the door, came in with a bowl of red medicine, and said, "Official family, it's time to take medicine."

Zhao Xu nodded, picked up the bowl, lowered his head and drank before saying, "What's going on outside?"

Just as Chenpi was about to speak, Zhao Xu suddenly raised his head and said, "Is this the medicine I usually drink?"

Because he fell into the well, Zhao Xu had been recuperating and drank a lot of medicines, but this bowl was not what he had now. It was a tonic that he used to drink to strengthen his body.

Chenpi said: "Yes, the imperial physician said that the official's meditation is the key, and the medicine is the auxiliary."

Zhao Xu looked at the bowl of medicine, and suddenly there was lightning flashing through his mind. He remembered the thought that he had been interrupted by Meng Tang in the restaurant before!

He stared at the bowl of medicine, his eyes flashed for a while, and said, "Talented Doctor, no, you go in person, find the most senior doctor and bring it to you quietly."

Chenpi was a little confused, and looked at the bowl of medicine again, and was secretly shocked and said quickly: "Yes, the villain went to find Chu You and asked him to take someone to follow him."

Zhao Xu nodded and looked at the bowl of medicine with a calm look.

In Fanlou, when he saw Meng Tang and contacted his sister Meng Meiren, the thought that flashed through him was two words - descendants.

In history, he had no prince left behind, which was why Zhao Ji was able to succeed to the throne after his sudden death.

In his twenties, from the time he chose a concubine to enter the palace to his death, it was at least seven or eight years. Why did dozens of women not have a single child left behind? Is this accidental or artificial?

If it is artificial, is it the same person as the murderer who wants to harm him?

If it was the same person, then after his death, he would definitely be the one who benefited the most. Maybe it could not be seen now, but when Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne, the one who benefited the most could be seen!

Zhao Xu did not know much about this history, but he inferred from all kinds of people and things inside and outside the palace, and was able to silently arrange for him to fall into the well, reaching out of the palace to poison Gao Gongji, which made Concubine Wu Xian so afraid that he would rather die than say that. In this way, there were fewer and fewer suspects, and the direction was very obvious!
