Chapter 172: Not even a drop of blood
This is the second concubine after Concubine Rong, and her status is even better because of the special title of Xian.
The harem was accustomed to being a place where one could act according to the changing circumstances, and the title of concubine was a big event. Many people came out to congratulate her, hoping to be familiar with her so that she could become a wealthy new master.
Linlang was mixed in with the crowd, and through the dazzling sunlight, she saw the woman's face in the distance, as if she didn't exist in this world.
Her eyes were as calm as a lake, exuding an aura of isolation and alienation.
There were palace people nearby who were talking quietly.
"The Concubine Xian is so lucky. She didn't lose anything and she still has a high position when she comes back."
"Furthermore, no one can compare to the Emperor's feeling of guilt..."
No one in the Shen family was missing and they returned to Beijing smoothly.
Everything is back on track, which is not a good thing in the eyes of others.
Linlang was in the last place, listening to these private whispers, but suddenly thought of the child in her belly who had lost just one month old...
None of them remember this.
But the heart-to-heart connection between mother and son, how can outsiders feel the pain of heart-to-heart and flesh-tossing? How can such a loss be truly forgotten?

…
After the crowd gradually dispersed, Linlang went to find He Chu with the freshly brewed Qiuli ointment.
After spring, both of them grew a lot taller.
Linlang really grew taller, and as for Hechu, it was because the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy was in a prime stage for drawing.
Even if he wanted to suppress it, he couldn't.
"elder sister."
The other party stuffed a box of good rouge and gouache into her hand and said in a low voice, "You helped the master a lot last time. The master said he didn't have anything good, so he could only give this to express his gratitude."
Linlang was a little dumbfounded.
"Don't let your master spend so much money next time. I'm often in a smoky kitchen, so there's no need for such a thing."
Moreover, she is a palace maid, who can show her all her makeup and makeup?
"Okay." He Chu smiled and responded, "Sister, she looks very good even if she doesn't dress up."
"You see, sweet lips can achieve the same effect as rouge." Linlang handed the food box to him and said, "Still the old rule, twice a day, one spoonful at a time."
"Sister is so kind."
He Chu no longer says thank you anymore, he just says this directly.
The corners of Linlang's mouth twitched.
She finally understood where the familiarity came from. This was exactly how she dealt with Qiu Bai.
"By the way, sister, the results of the last examination of the body that fell into the water have come out." He Chu said in a lower voice after looking around to make sure there was no one around.
"It is said that it came out a few days ago, but was hurriedly disposed of on the same day. The master has already inquired for us and said that the body died in a strange way and there was not a drop of blood on it."
"No blood?" Linlang frowned slightly.
With her current level of poison skills, even if she can't solve it, she can definitely see it.
But no matter what she saw back then or what she heard now, she couldn't figure out what kind of poison it was.
It can only be determined to be Nanyi's poison technique.
"Yes." He Chu nodded.
"And the corpse from the dead tree last time can also be confirmed to be Princess Nanyi. She was responsible for checking those who were seriously ill, and finally sought the emperor's permission to have her body incinerated."
"But there is a precedent for Princess Xiaoyi. It is said that she adopted a little prince who was not very popular before, and she almost had an accident. Later, the late emperor was so angry that he banished her to the cold palace.
"
Even being a prince is not easy these days.
