Comprehensive film and television: Every time I dress up as a supporting role

"Yes, Your Majesty, it hasn't even been a year since the last death, and now two more have died..."

Yixiu's words were still vague, hiding important information and only extracting key points, but he didn't say who died.

She learned her lesson. Last time, even though she told the emperor clearly who died, the emperor never punished Concubine Hua. Since she couldn't get the emperor's definite word on punishing Concubine Hua, she blurred the important information and made Concubine Hua feel aggrieved!

"I think Hua Fei is innocent. Well, Queen, just bury those two palace maids and assign two more people to fill the vacancy in Hua Fei's service. There's no need to make a big fuss."

Worried that Concubine Hua would be implicated and difficult to deal with, Yinzhen thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

The Queen lowered her head slightly and smiled, but before the Emperor noticed, her smile faded and her expression of worry returned.

"Will this matter be handled so simply? Will it not satisfy Concubine Hua? If Concubine Hua asks about it, I will not be able to appease her."

Yinzhen paused while twirling his Buddhist beads, then looked up at the Queen, his tone slightly angry, "If she's dissatisfied, tell her to investigate thoroughly herself."

Anger inevitably welled up in his heart, and he became dissatisfied with Concubine Hua. He deliberately asked the Queen not to pursue the matter, wasn't it just to protect Concubine Hua's reputation?

If this still doesn't satisfy Concubine Hua, and she continues to make trouble, then the investigation will be directed at Concubine Hua herself...

Yinzhen felt a headache when he thought of this. "I have to deal with the memorials. If the Queen has nothing else to do, please return to the palace."

He threw off his dragon robe, stood up, and walked towards the dragon table without even looking at the queen.

A silent, gloomy atmosphere filled the air.

The Queen was in a very good mood. Since the Emperor had spoken, Concubine Hua was doomed to suffer the consequences. Her confidant had died. Given Concubine Hua's personality, she would surely be so angry that she would want to turn the entire palace upside down to find the murderer. But with the Emperor's approval, Yixiu could just investigate the case perfunctorily and then end it hastily.

Even if Concubine Hua was dissatisfied, she had no reason to shout at the Queen.

In this round, Yixiu won.

As for the real cause of death of Zhou Ninghai and another palace maid?

Yixiu didn't care.

It was just a servant who died, or it was just a revenge killing among the subordinates, or a concubine secretly attacked someone around Concubine Hua. No matter what the situation was, as long as the fire did not fall on Yixiu, she would sit back and watch the fight leisurely. It would be best if the person who secretly attacked could eliminate Concubine Hua, who was a big threat to her.

-

Concubine Hua returned to Yiku Palace, but her restless heart, filled with anger, could not calm down and instead became more and more intense.

It would be fine if someone else died, but it happened to be one of her most trusted confidants who died. Zhou Ninghai had saved her life. Concubine Hua had long distinguished Zhou Ninghai from an ordinary loyal servant. How could she not be angry about his death?

Besides, apart from Zhou Ninghai, it would be hard to find another servant who is so obedient, useful, fearless, and understands her preferences to serve her.

In addition to reporting to the Queen, Concubine Hua also sent a number of people to investigate the cause of Zhou Ninghai's death, but they were all done secretly.

Because the timing of Zhou Ninghai's death was too coincidental, he died when he was assassinating Qu Lian, Concubine Hua was afraid that someone would find out about it.

How could Qu Lian, a palace maid who was barely able to even tie a chicken, kill Zhou Ninghai and the palace maids she sent alone?

There must be a third party helping out. Even worse, Zhou Ninghai might have died without even seeing Qu Lian.

Nian Shilan suspected Qu Lian, but not much.

Feeling depressed and anxious, Nian Shilan summoned Concubine Cao alone and told her about this matter.

After hearing the story, Concubine Cao was stunned. However, she was not surprised that Nian Shilan dared to murder the palace maid. Nian Shilan had murdered so many palace maids that he even dared to kill the concubines. What was a mere palace maid?

What surprised her was that Nian Shilan's methods were so low-level that he not only failed to assassinate her but also lost a confidant.

"Your Majesty, if you want to kill a palace maid, just find an opportunity to punish her. Why bother sending someone in person?" Concubine Cao carefully chose her words, trying to wake Concubine Hua up.

"I didn't call you here to preach!" As if she had found a breakthrough to vent her anger, Nian Shilan was so angry that she threw the exquisite fan in her hand at Concubine Cao's head, her chest heaving violently.

With this powerful throw, Concubine Cao's banner was knocked off balance. Startled, she quickly stood up from a half-squatting position, then lowered her head and knelt again, saying in humiliation:

"My words have gone astray, Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Hurry up and find a way to find the bitch who killed Zhou Ninghai." Nian Shilan took a sip of water. She had been angry for a long time, and her mouth was dry and she almost had a blisters.

"Yes, I will try my best to find a solution."

Concubine Cao felt bitter in her mouth and even more bitter in her heart. She was given a vague message and was asked to find the murderer. She was not a detective. She was fine with plotting and harming people, but finding the murderer based on clues that were almost scarce was putting her in a difficult position!

-

The news of another death in the palace could not be concealed from other palaces. Following Concubine Hua's actions, almost all the onlookers knew that Zhou Ninghai had died.

Zhou Ninghai. Who among the servants with even a little ambition doesn't know him?

The chief eunuch of Yikun Palace is deeply trusted by Concubine Hua and has been her confidant for many years.

Unexpectedly, he died in a well without any dignity, just like Fu Zi died before.

The incident was spread from mouth to mouth, with one person adding another, and in the end, a version of the story emerged that Fuzi sought revenge on Zhou Ninghai.

It is not known whether Concubine Hua was frightened or not, but Noble Lady Fucha in the Yanx Palace was very scared and almost dared not go out at night. Although she did not kill the man, she acted as if she had something to hide.

Fucha Guiren's overly timid behavior attracted the attention of Concubine Hua. She specially called Fucha Guiren over for questioning. When she couldn't get anything out of her, she angrily kept her to torture her.

Something went wrong during this negotiation. After standing in the Yiku Palace grinding ink for an hour and a half, Noble Lady Fucha fainted!

Concubine Hua thought that Noble Lady Fucha was pretending to faint and be lazy, but when Songzhi went up to check, she found that she was really fainted.

Concubine Hua finally felt fear in her heart. Noblewoman Fucha was different from Shen Meiyu and the like. The Fucha family behind Noblewoman Fucha still had some power. If something really happened to Noblewoman Fucha, the emperor would definitely be angry with Nian Shilan.

"Songzhi, go get the imperial physician to come and see Noble Lady Fucha!" Nian Shilan calmed herself down, maintaining her pride as she raised her voice and ordered. Finally, she muttered, "What bad luck! Don't let him die in my Yikun Palace."

The Yanx Palace was too far away, so Concubine Fucha could not go back, so she rested directly in the west side hall of the Yiku Palace.

The Yiku Palace has always been exclusively for Nian Shilan. No one has ever lived in any of the side halls. Even though no one has lived there, the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not dare to neglect it and sent people to clean it regularly. Therefore, there was no need to clean up when taking a temporary rest, which was convenient for Noble Lady Fucha.
