Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!
Chapter 418: Finding the Real Murderer Tong Jiashi
At this moment, Shi Nanxi suddenly had an idea and thought of something. She looked at Xiao Ai who was lying unconscious on the ground and suddenly said:
"Liang Jiugong, wake up Xiao Ai. I have a question for her."
Liang Jiugong was stunned, and then Kangxi immediately said:
"Listen to the Imperial Concubine."
Liang Jiugong immediately agreed when he heard this and had Xiao Ai dragged out. When Xiao Ai came back, she was soaked and shivering from the cold, but she had woken up.
Shi Nanxi looked at her and said:
"Xiao Ai, I want to ask you a question. Did you notice anything special about the person who approached you? For example, was he very tall, or very fat, or had a very special voice? Or did he have any habits worth noting? Or did he have any moles or scars on any exposed parts of his body? Anyway, anything worth noting is fine."
"Think about it carefully. If you can help the emperor and me find that person, I can spare your life."
Hearing this, Xiao Ai, who was originally lying on the ground breathing in more than out, her eyelashes moved and her eyes became bright again. She didn't want to die, so she immediately tried to recall.
The hall was completely silent, and time passed by. Suddenly, Xiao Ai's eyes lit up, and he raised his head and said excitedly:
"I remember now."
After hearing this, Shi Nanxi became excited. Kangxi did not expect that there might be a real discovery, so he looked over immediately.
Xiao Ai raised her right hand with difficulty, pointed to her wrist, and described:
"When that man handed me the silver, he accidentally exposed his right wrist. Although it was dark at the time, there was still some moonlight. When I took the silver, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a large black mole under his wrist. Yes, it was a black mole, but I was only thinking about the silver at the time, and it flashed by and I forgot about it."
There is always light at the end of the tunnel. A smile appeared on Shi Nanxi's face. There are many old eunuchs in the palace, but there are definitely not many old eunuchs with a big black mole under their right wrist.
Kangxi responded immediately:
"Liang Jiugong."
Liang Jiugong understood immediately and turned around to ask someone to find the person based on his characteristics.
The atmosphere eased a little. At this time, Xiao Fuzi came over again and brought a new clue. They found a tourmaline crabapple flower hairpin under the floor tiles under Xiuzhen's bed.
As he spoke, he carefully took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, opened it, and inside was an exquisite and eye-catching hairpin.
Kangxi's gaze fell on the tourmaline in the center of the hairpin's pistil, and his phoenix eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Tourmaline is a very precious gemstone, and it is very rare in the Qing Dynasty. Even the concubines of low rank in the harem may not have a piece of jewelry made of tourmaline. How could a little palace maid get it? Check!"
"Whoo."
This matter is becoming more and more complicated, but Shi Nanxi remains calm. The more complicated something is, the easier it is to investigate.
She glanced at Kangxi, who had a gloomy face, and asked someone to take the cold tea away. She personally took the teapot and poured him a cup of hot tea, and advised:
"Your Majesty, have a cup of hot tea and calm down. After all, today is your birthday party, how can the birthday boy not be happy? And we already have a clue, I think there will be a result soon."
Kangxi's expression softened a little after hearing this, and he obediently picked up the teacup and took a sip. He was very happy today, but he didn't expect that Shi Yiyao would be involved in so many things, especially that might involve the prince.
Thinking of this, his face darkened again. Who on earth was that person behind him?
After a while, Liang Jiugong came back first, but his expression was obviously not right. Seeing this, Kangxi put down his teacup.
"Have you found the eunuch with the black mole?"
Liang Jiugong nodded, but his expression was solemn. He looked at the people around him, waved his hand, and asked someone to drag Xiao Ai and the unconscious Shi Yiyao away.
When Kangxi saw this scene, his expression became even gloomier.
Shi Nanxi had a hunch that she had found the right person this time. Sure enough, when she heard that the eunuch was an old man in the palace of Empress Xiaoyi in Jingren Palace, she suddenly understood.
It turned out to be Tong Jia. They were indeed the candidates who were not from the palace, but had great power in the palace and had a grudge against her.
But this time Kangxi was completely furious. He stared at Liang Jiugong closely, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth:
"You said that the eunuch is from Xiaoyi Palace? Where is he now?"
Liang Jiugong knelt down and said with a stiff upper lip:
"Your Majesty, the eunuch's name is Zhao Bao. He used to be the chief eunuch of Jingren Palace. When I and others went to find him, he had already bitten his tongue and committed suicide."
Why did he bite his tongue to commit suicide? It was obvious that he knew he was exposed, but did not want to betray his master, so he chose to commit suicide.
At this moment, Xiao Fuzi ran in breathlessly and reported urgently:
"Your Majesty, Xiuzhen has been summoned. The hairpin was given to her by Zhao Bao, the chief eunuch of Jingren Palace. He said that if she did one thing for him, he would let her leave the palace early and become the concubine of the eldest son in Tongjia Mansion. She was tempted by the wealth and glory, so she agreed."
At this point, the matter was completely clear. The person behind today's incident was Tong Jia. Shi Nanxi also guessed why the other party did this.
The source should be from Longkodo. When Longkodo was exiled to Ningguta, he could not adapt to the extreme cold there and almost died. Even if he was alive, it is said that one of his feet was inconvenient.
There was no particularly outstanding person among the younger generation of the Tonggiya clan, and because of the rift between them and the emperor, their position in the court began to decline after their peak in the past two years.
But what does all this have to do with her? Longkodo was exiled to Ningguta because of his own fault. Who made him allow his concubine to turn his wife into a human pig and even tried to have Kangxi execute her? Sparing his life was already a mercy from Kangxi.
Since the Tonggiya clan still wanted to avenge Longkodo, their path was becoming increasingly narrow.
Compared to Shi Nanxi's calmness, Kangxi held the ring tightly. It turned out to be Tonggiya, his maternal clan!
Why? For a Longkodo? Kangxi, who was extremely angry, calmed down instead. He waved his hand, and Liang Jiugong and others immediately withdrew.
Shi Nanxi looked at Kangxi and knew that he must be upset at this moment. After all, Tong Jia was his mother's family. But this matter involved her, so she did not comfort him, but said:
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. Xixi is still in Chuxiu Palace. If she can't see me, she will definitely make a fuss. I will go back first."
As he was about to leave, Kangxi suddenly grabbed Shi Nanxi's hand from behind, and at the same time his deep voice came:
"You go back first. I didn't eat well at the birthday banquet. Ask the kitchen to make a bowl of mutton noodles. I'll go over later."
Shi Nanxi, who was facing away, raised her lips slightly, hummed, and continued to walk out the door. Just as she was about to step out of the threshold, Kangxi's voice came from behind her:
"Nanxi, I will give you an explanation."
Shi Nanxi turned around and said with a smile in her eyes:
"I am waiting for the emperor to come and eat mutton noodles."
The bright light shone on Shi Nanxi, casting a soft halo on her, and Kangxi's heavy heart suddenly relaxed.
"it is good."
