Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Cracked Silk (Part II)
From a distance, Chang Ruo was sitting upright behind the seventh case on the left, and next to him was his brother Xie Xianruo. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBoth of them look like they are looking at their noses and their noses and their hearts.
I couldn't see the clue, so I had to give up.
I only heard Emperor Wei say in a solemn voice: "Huo Tong is leading and sitting." I will reward and punish clearly. Since Jiang Shangshu said that King Xiao should be punished, I don't know if this disrespectful thing about the purity of Buddhism is true?"
Chen Jilun bowed down and smiled: "Naturally, it's true." How dare the minister deceive His Majesty. ”
King Xiao asked with a calm face: "I don't know about such a secret private matter of this king, how did Lord Chen know about it? Then Lord Chen knows that this king has been staying in the camp?
Chen Jilun was confident: "Lord, isn't it Qu Zhaoxun beside you who is in the Jokhang Temple? If people don't know it, they can't do it unless they do it! The prince is really ashamed of His Majesty's high hopes for you." ”
This person avoided answering King Xiao's questions, and only talked about my affairs in the Jokhang Temple, which is indeed true. When everyone sees that this is true, they will subconsciously believe that it is true for the related disrespect for Buddhism, even if there is no evidence.
Sure enough, the eyes of all the people in the hall swept over me. The discussion also became louder.
The prince easily suppressed the color on his face, leaned back on the back of the circle chair and looked at King Xiao.
King Xiao said in a low voice: "Let you stay in the mansion and don't come out and don't listen, now you know that it is powerful?"
I looked up in surprise: Could it be that the deliberate snub before was still for this reason? I found that Xiao Wang was looking at Yao Huatang inquiringly, and the latter nodded slightly.
Before he could think about it, the voices of the attendants came from the door of the palace: "See Concubine Ding." ”
A slightly frightened female voice rang out: "Your Majesty......!" A concubine dressed in a royal blue palace dress rushed in and fell into Emperor Wei's arms.
"Why are you panicking, concubine? Emperor Wei helped Concubine Ding and comforted him softly.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Cairen committed suicide!"
"What, when?" said Wei Di, shocked. It seems that Zhao Cairen cares very much.
"Just now, the concubine changed her clothes and was about to come to the Tai Palace, and the palace people around Zhao Cairen cried and cried to report, and the concubine hurried over, but she couldn't be saved! That was terrible! Zhao Cairen was so pitiful!"
Emperor Wei's face turned blue: "It is a big crime for the palace concubine to commit suicide, although she is from a humble background, didn't the palace housekeeper teach her?
"The concubine knew that His Majesty cared about Zhao Cairen and would definitely ask in person, so she brought her personal palace people. Now he is waiting outside the temple. Concubine Ding wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
Emperor Wei immediately said: "Announce her into the palace!"
Soon, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old little palace maid was brought in. Fell to the ground and shivered.
"I ask you, why did Zhao Cairen look for a short time?" Wei Di slowed down his tone as much as he could.
The servant didn't dare to speak. The palace maid glanced up at Emperor Wei slightly, and quickly lowered her head. It shook even more.
"Bold! Your Majesty's words dare not be returned?" the steward supervisor beside Emperor Wei reprimanded, "Don't come soon!"
The little palace maid bowed her head and said nothing, but the hand on the ground was tightly curled into a fist, and the inner supervisor in charge was about to urge again, but the little palace maid raised her head suddenly and cried: "The maid can't survive today anyway, it's better to seek justice for us in front of Your Majesty! Your Majesty, the talented man committed suicide, but it was because he couldn't live." ”
Emperor Wei said angrily: "What does it mean that there is no way to live? Since she entered the palace, I have been spoiled, what is there to be dissatisfied?"
The palace maid said sadly: "Your Majesty, a talented person was insulted, and in order to save her name, she committed suicide! ”
"Who is it? Who is so bold to mistreat the palace concubine in Ouchi?" Emperor Wei's face turned blue, and he stood up from the dragon chair angrily.
However, in a moment, he seemed to remember something, and sat down abruptly, his face ashen.
A little tremblingly, he raised his hand and pointed at the palace maid and said, "Drag out this alarmist and slanderous." However, his breath was not smooth, his words were weak, and the chief eunuch beside him was busy leaning over to rub his chest to smooth his breath, and for a while, where could he care about sending the guards outside the palace to take the little palace maid away.
When the palace maid saw this, she sneered and said: "Your Majesty is so uncomfortable because you have already guessed who it is! Such a disloyal and unfilial traitor is actually the prince of the country! What a ridiculous thing in the world!"
Sure enough, it was the crown prince.
It's just that I heard that this little palace maid is quite eloquent in her words, but I'm afraid it's not a simple palace maid.
Her words were like a boulder thrown into the lake, and the hall suddenly became loud and loud, like stirring up a thousand waves. Jiang Yuhong and the others were very surprised, and they didn't dare to make a rash voice and help the prince for a while.
The prince was furious, and stretched out his finger to point directly at the little palace maid: "What is your intention in framing this palace like this?"
"When His Royal Highness was rude to my family, the servant was dissuaded on the side, and was pushed down outside the palace gate by His Royal Highness's palm, has His Highness forgotten?"
The crown prince was really anxious at this time, and said to Emperor Wei: "Father, I don't know who wants to frame his son!
"Your Majesty, if you are not forced into a desperate situation, how can you dare to oppose the prince? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince keeps saying that the servant is framed, so please let Your Majesty know this!" As she spoke, the little palace maid straightened her thin back and held up something with both hands.
The Imperial Supervisor walked down the steps quickly, and when she saw clearly what she was holding in her hand, her expression, which had not changed for ten thousand years, was slightly torn slightly. However, in the end, it was the person who had been immersed in the palace for many years, and he recovered in an instant, took it from her hand calmly, and presented it to Emperor Wei.
It is a piece of cloth.
A bright yellow piece of fabric, apparently torn from the garment.
The prince was speechless for a moment.
Wei Di slapped the crack silk on the desk and closed his eyes slightly. His chest heaved and heaved, as if he was trying to suppress his anger, but apparently it didn't work, and after a few breaths, he opened his eyes sharply and shouted, "Rebel!"
The prince knelt down.
Chen Jilun and other four or five ministers also came out and knelt in the hall at this time.
"Your Majesty is angry, there must be something else hidden in this matter!"
"Your Majesty, how noble is the prince, how can he be angry with a little palace maid?"
"What can a piece of cracked silk do, I don't know where this palace maid stole it from!"
……
The little palace maid raised her tear-stained face and cried: "This is after the talented man of my family committed suicide, the maid was pulled out of the tight hand of the talented man! At that time, the prince insulted the talented people of my family, and the talented people struggled to call for help, but the people of the Donggong Jialing Temple blocked the maid and others from the palace gate. Later, when the prince left, the maid rushed into the room and held this tightly in her hand when she helped up my talented person. It was a piece of fabric torn from the prince's robe! This kind of dyeing, texture, and weaving pattern can be found out by the Shanggong Bureau at a glance. ”
