Chapter Eighty-Six: Selfishness

"You see, the two palace people in Lu Jieyu's palace have scolded Concubine Quan," Haitong pointed to the words in the confession: "Saying that you will give birth to an old pig and dog in the next life, it is so vicious and ugly - when you quarrel, you say that your mother and mother should die, what do you say to pierce your eyes, criticize her cheeks, learn from the Empress Dowager Lu of the Han Dynasty, be a person, and so on." ”

But this is like people in the market scolding each other, and the government cannot really think that people are dead like this, nor can they be convicted because of this. Hai Tong said: "If it is true that the Pu family said that they were ground with arsenic and drank it for Concubine Quan, then what the palace people Li and Wang said is true?

"What Li and Wang said is false," Ma Yun said: "But what Park said must be true, because there are indeed silversmiths and arsenic!"

Haitong shook his head, now all the basis is in the mouth of the palace man Lu Jia, how credible is Lu Jia's words?

Soon began to interrogate the silversmith, who could not help but torture him, and admitted that there were indeed nobles and court maids who had bought arsenic from him, and told him to identify Jinde, and he said at first that he was no, and then that he did not remember, and finally said yes.

Ma Yun took the silversmith's confession and came to the eunuch Jinde's torture room. He stared at the almost inhuman, sighed, and said, "The silversmith has identified you as having bought arsenic from him, what else do you say?"

"I-no," Kim could still hear, and he could still speak when he was dying, "No!"

"Actually, I don't think you have it," Ma Yun said: "If you are beaten like this, and you still don't admit it, you should have really not done it." However, let me ask you something else—where did you hide the obscene Spring Palace diagram and Mr. Jujiao and other things that you got from Lu Jieyu's uncle, Lu Qizheng?"

Kim began to tremble, and he whimpered and curled up in a ball, the shackles on his hands and feet making a cold, pleasant thud.

Ji Gang found a bunch of such disgusting things from Lu Qizheng, these things Lu Qizheng admitted that he supplied Lu Jieyu in the palace through the eunuch Jinde, and the news that Ji Gang got was "Lu Jieyu caused chaos in the palace", and it was also confirmed from Lu Qizheng - but who would have thought that this was a poisoning case, Ma Yun found that he was difficult to enter in the poisoning case, so he had to start with this weathering case.

"Let's talk about it," Ma Yun said angrily: "I didn't find these things in Lu Jieyu's palace, I think you heard the wind and put these things elsewhere, but you also know that this palace is not a place where you can bury things by digging a pit casually, if you don't say it, you have to search the six palaces, and you will definitely be able to find it, but it will take more time." ”

"There is impotence in the saint, sometimes good and sometimes bad," Ma Yun approached him, and said in a low but calm voice: "Those of us who serve know it and know it." You're getting clearer, aren't you? But the harem is peaceful and quiet, everyone can get by, why can't you live like this with your Lu Jieyu?"

Kim curled up in a ball, shaking all the time, and the whites of his eyes flashed with deep fear.

"Do you know if you touch the scales," Ma Yun said: "The poisoning case and the weathering case, to tell the truth, if you admit to poisoning, you will die and die in your palace." If I search for these things, you tribute girls from North Korea, no matter how big the position you have now, will be pulled down, and there will be no one alive. ”

Jin De soon couldn't bear it, he confessed to the poisoning case, and also said the location of the things in the obscene harem, actually in the palace of Concubine Shun, Ma Yun went to Concubine Shun's palace and lifted a big box out, and then soon this box was taken out of the palace wall by him, and no one in the palace seemed to know what was in this box.

However, Zhang Zhaohua knew.

From the original birthday banquet of Zhang Guifei, Lu Jieyu drove Sister Yu to the sun under the pretext of the reason, and after half an hour, Zhang Zhaohua remembered her - the last person who was remembered by Zhang Zhaohua was He Fu, and now He Fu has committed suicide, Princess Zhao was deposed because she had no children, and she entered the nunnery to practice.

Zhang Zhaohua not only probed Lu Jieyu's private affairs in the palace, but also let Xie Chuan start an investigation outside the palace, to be honest, as long as Lu Jieyu is innocent enough to withstand it, Zhang Zhaohua wants to design a frame, but he can't catch it. The problem is that they have been in the harem for so long, and these concubines can't be said to be very innocent in their hands at all, some forbidden things exist, and the entire inner palace is strictly guarded, and they can't be discarded at all. When Zhang Zhaohua found out that Lu Qizheng provided Lu Jieyu with these sexual devices, she also felt incredible, she only checked Lu Jieyu one, and did not check the other Korean concubines, but from this, these people should all be more or less selfish, because they are not coming from the right way, and many of the people who serve them are not good families, and many bad habits have been brought in like this.

In her plan, even if there was no poisoning case, she planned to expose this matter, and she wanted Lu Jieyu to die.

So when this case was issued, Zhang Zhaohua led Ji Gang to find out about Lu Qizheng's head, this is a way to kill two birds with one stone, the emperor did not let Ji Gang interfere, Ji Gang intervened, this time he really committed the emperor's taboo, and in the future, he will only wait for the last straw that crushes the camel to appear. And Lu Jieyu's weathering case, in Zhang Zhaohua's plan, should be exposed, Lu Jieyu's death is a certainty, although it will implicate the Korean concubines in the palace and countless people in the palace, but Zhang Zhaohua doesn't care - but she didn't expect that Ma Yun used Yama methods, and in the end, there was a bodhisattva heart, and he actually smuggled a bag of things out of the palace and burned them all.

"To tell the truth, people who can be looked down upon by their father," Zhang Zhaohua also sighed to Gao Chi: "Whether it is from the outer court or the eunuchs who serve, it is amazing, I am convinced by my father's knowledge." ”

Gao Chi is really isolated from the world in the Chunhe Palace, he is not like Zhang Zhaohua, who is locked up here but always pays attention to and even controls every move outside, he only vaguely knows that Lu Jieyu and Concubine Quan have something unseemly, but I really don't know the specifics, until the case ended, I knew that there were one hundred and seventy-three people involved in the palace, only a few survived, and the culprit Lu Jieyu actually asked the emperor to use a soldering iron for a month before she died.

However, Zhang Zhaohua felt that it was not over, she had a great interest in the palace man Lu Jia, she knew everything about Lu Jieyu as early as when she was investigating Lu Jieyu's private affairs, whether this person had instructed someone to buy arsenic, she knew best. However, Lu Jia jumped out and confessed all the clues, and convicted Lu Jieyu in this way-

Zhang Zhaohua then ordered the painter who taught Chun Ge'er to secretly paint a portrait of Lu Jia, and took advantage of the gap to let Yi Shuha take him into the torture room where the silversmith was imprisoned, and sure enough, the silversmith saw the portrait and immediately identified this woman as the person who most often came to her place to buy arsenic.

No matter how this woman was able to go out of the palace many times and buy arsenic, because the palace stipulates that only palace people who have served for more than five years will be given signs to enter and leave the palace - Zhang Zhaohua only talked about her framing Lu Jieyu, and after some secret visits, she knew that it was true that Lu Jieyu was not good to her, but this Lu Jia's biggest resentment towards Lu Jieyu was that she felt that the two of them had the same surname, so it was better to take care of each other if they were sisters. As a result, Lu Jieyu refused, and scolded her so much that she was squirting blood. This incident was a laughing stock in the court at that time, and they all ridiculed Lu Gong for being the wrong person - however, Zhang Zhaohua found out that Lu Jia's mother was a good lowly, and she was born from her mother in this era, but her father was actually Lu Guizhen, that is, Lu Jieyu's biological father.

In this way, it can be said that Lu Guizhen and Lu Jia's mother - maybe a singer or maybe an official, gave birth to Lu Jia illegally, Lu Jia is from his mother, and his hometown is cheap, but Lu Guizhen knows that this is his own daughter, Lu Jieyu has a future, so he also planned a future for Lu Jia, and let her go to Daming with her sister. However, Lu Jia knew about this, but Lu Jieyu didn't, so Lu Jia's request seemed to her to be tantamount to a fool's dream, so Lu Jia held a grudge and framed her sister Lu Jieyu.
