Leng Xiang Ning [I]

As soon as Leng Xiangning died, the dragons of Huayue Palace had no head, and Leng Aoshuang, as the aunt of Huayue Palace, assumed the leading responsibility.

She dragged her injured body, temporarily settled the people in Huayue Palace, and ordered the release of all the scholars locked in the secret road stone prison and handed them to Lu Ziqing to take back to Yunzhou City.

For those scholars, she had done her best to keep them alive. As for the impact of the Huayue Palace experience on them, she couldn't do anything about it.

Then she came to the ice room in the palace, where Leng Xiangning's body was placed. In the ice room, Zhao Ling and Situ Gong were inspecting Leng Xiangning's body.

Zhao Ling suspected that Leng Xiangning died abnormally. According to her recent actions and performances, she should be suffering from mania and hypothesis. Simply put, it was a little insanity, and this situation couldn't be ruled out as caused by a certain drug. So she specifically called Situ Gong in to check it out.

Seeing Leng Aoshuang coming in, Zhao Ling nodded at her and asked. "Miss Leng, has the Lord Leng always been as grumpy as she was just now, and even often acquired the wrong person?"

Leng Aoshuang shook her head and denied: "No, she was not like this at the beginning. My sister was a gentle and elegant person with a deep understanding of righteousness. Even if Tao Zhirui's shameless person deceived her and abandoned her at that time, she did not have any excuses."

Tao Zhirui, could it be the "Rui Lang" that Leng Xiangning said?

As if he knew Zhao Ling's questions, Leng Aoshuang went on to explain: "Tao Zhirui once had a relationship with my sister. At that time, he was just a poor scholar who was bitten by a poisonous snake while collecting medicine in the mountains. It was my sister who rescued him back to the palace and helped him heal his injuries. The two of them became in love with each other for a long time, so they settled for life."

Tao Zhirui was about to go to Beijing for the exam that year and promised to marry my sister after he was in high school. My sister was here waiting for him wholeheartedly, but who knew that he would never return, and there was no news.

A year ago, he returned home in good shape and became the prefect of Yunzhou. When my sister heard the news, she went to him with joy. Who thought he already had a wife, and he was newly married to his princess wife, Yaner, who was deeply affectionate. He didn't recognize my sister at all. "

Leng Aoshuang paused, she was deeply worthless for her sister. She had long seen that Tao Zhirui's rhetoric was not a good person, but her sister was fascinated by him at that time, and she couldn't listen to her advice.

She blamed herself. If she had tried to persuade her sister several times more, maybe her sister's fate would not be miserable.

"Chen Shimei!" Zhao Ling blurted out, seeing Leng Aoshuang and Situ Gong's suspicious eyes, expecting that they might not know Chen Shimei. So they laughed, and she continued, "Well, I just heard that there was a man named Chen Shimei before. Ren, he married the princess after passing the exam and abandoned his wife and two children. In order to prevent his wife from coming to the government office to sue and expose him, he sent someone to assassinate his wife and children. Much worse than Tao Zhirui."

"There is such a hateful person in this world?" Leng Aoshuang lived in Huayue Palace all year round, with a simple mind, and looked surprised when he heard Chen Shimei's evil deeds. Compared with Chen Shimei's wife, her sister does not seem to be the worst of bad love deeds.

"The most unpredictable thing in this world is people's hearts, so Miss Leng doesn't have to blame herself too much for what happened to Sister Ling." Zhao Ling was not very good at comforting people, and could only do her best at this.

Although Zhao Ling's tone was faint, Leng Aoshuang also heard the relief in her words, and was a little moved for a while. The woman in front of her was dressed plainly and did not apply any beauty powder. Although her facial features were exquisite, she had a scar on her face. But her gentle and calm temperament and calm and indifferent look made her involuntarily good.

Leng Aoshuang glanced at Zhao Ling gratefully, and continued to recall. "When did my sister start to change, you asked? It should be after the Baoning Temple fire.

That day, for some reason, a fire broke out in Baoning Temple, and Tao Zhirui and his wife were also burned to death in the fire. I originally thought that the fire was caused by my sister, but seeing my sister holding Tao Zhirui's charred body crying sadly, I knew it had nothing to do with her. Maybe it was retribution, who told him to betray my sister.

But after that, my sister's temperament slowly changed. At first, her temper became more and more irritable, and she was very easy to get angry. Later she became more and more cruel and bloodthirsty. She hated all the scholars who were locked up in stone prisons. She ordered someone to catch the scholar secretly.

The scholars who were caught were a bit disobedient, so she did not hesitate to kill them, and threw the corpse into the Sanskrit Forest, letting the wild beasts eat, and it was useless to persuade her no matter what I did.

On the contrary, it made her even more angry and made the scholars even more angry. She wanted them to suffer.

There must be a reason for a person's sudden personality change, either external or internal. Zhao Ling felt that Tao Zhirui's death might be an external cause of Leng Xiangning's change in temperament, but this did not explain the sudden death of Leng Xiangning from vomiting blood.

Is there another internal cause? But according to her inspection of Leng Xiangning's body just now, she did not find any signs of poisoning, so what was the cause of her death?

She asked Situ Gong: "Did Mr. Situ find out anything?"

Situ Gong shook his head, "This subordinate is incompetent."

It wasn't that Situ Gong was incompetent. From the surface of the corpse, there was indeed nothing unusual, nor could he find out the cause of death. So what was the cause of Leng Xiangning's death?
