The first time I heard the silver reward, the two shopkeepers couldn't help but be surprised, and then listened to the words later, they were so frightened that they sweated like rain, trembling and kowtowing, "The grass people don't dare!"

The emperor waved his hand, and the two of them were led by the inner attendants, all the way like stepping on floating clouds, one foot deep and one foot shallow to exit.

The two of them went out on the front foot, and the little chamberlain brought Qi Concubine and Cuijing back foot in.

When Concubine Qi walked to the side by side with Concubine Li, knelt down and saluted, after greeting her, the emperor leaned forward slightly and looked at Concubine Qi, "It was Concubine Hui who instructed Tao Ye to go to the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion to propose?"

A pair of eyes, with a heart-wrenching intimidation.

The atmosphere in the imperial study was dignified and made the always timid and cowardly Qi Concubine uneasy, and when the emperor asked her like this, she couldn't help but shudder, "Yes...... Be...... The concubine didn't know. ”

"I don't know?" Concubine Li suddenly exploded and turned her head to look at Concubine Qi, "You said you don't know? Didn't you say in front of me that Cui Jing asked you to send me a message and tell me that Tao Ye's request to marry Yingxiu was a conspiracy of Concubine Hui?"

Concubine Li's voice was sharp and mean.

Concubine Qi was so frightened that her mouth trembled, and she hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, it was Concubine Hui, it was Concubine Hui who instructed Tao Ye to go to the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion to propose marriage." ”

As he spoke, tears fell with him, trembling and choking, and the whole person shrank into a ball.

The emperor knew that she had always been timid, but he was surprised that she was so scared that he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, "You raise your head and look at me!"

When Concubine Qi heard this, her body stiffened suddenly, and she hesitated for half a cup of tea before she slowly raised her head, but her eyes did not dare to look directly at the emperor's gloomy eyes, and only avoided flickering.

"You repeat, it was Concubine Hui who instructed Tao Ye!" The emperor stared at Concubine Qi's eyes, and said word by word, the momentum brought out by his voice made people panic.

Concubine Qi couldn't stand this momentum, her body trembled suddenly, she sat down on the ground, turned her head and glanced at Concubine Li, bit her lip vigorously, took a breath, and said, "It was Cui Jingru who said it to the concubine, and the concubine just passed the word." ”

After saying a word, as if she had exhausted all her strength, she suddenly exhaled a sigh of relief, and sat there paralyzed, her face pale.

The emperor frowned and stared at her for a moment, then turned his eyes to look at Cuijing, "How did you know?"

Cuijing, who was named and kneeling behind Qi Concubine, trembled and lowered her head and said, "The slave accidentally heard it." ”

"You are a person in Hui Guifei's palace, you don't feel at ease to serve Hui Guifei, you overheard Hui Guifei's confidential matter, not to mention covering it for her, why did you tell Qi Concubine and let her tell Concubine Li? Do you know that this betrayal of the Lord is to be punished by the rod!"

Compared with Fang just speaking to Concubine Qi, when the emperor faced Cuijing, his voice was even more cold and hard.

Cuijing's lowered head turned slightly, glanced in the direction of Concubine Li, turned back again, and said, "Yes...... It's ......"

I don't know if it was trembling too much or how, just as he was talking, a velvet flower on his head was shaken to the ground, Cuijing's shoulders stiffened, and he reached out to pick up the velvet flower on the ground.

But the moment her fingers touched the velvet flower, Xiao Yu frowned, "Huh, what's going on with your arm?"

Xiao Yu's words fell, and everyone's eyes fell to Cuijing.

Cuijing's action of picking up flowers stiffened, and her small half of her arm was exposed, and her eyes fell, only to see a black green with blood marks.

After a stalemate, Cuijing was busy and didn't pick up the flowers, but hurriedly withdrew his arm and hid the small half of his exposed arm with his sleeve.

"Your arm, what's going on?" repeated Fang Cai Xiao Yu's question, but when the words came out of the emperor's mouth, they carried a heart-rending momentum, "You go and take a look." After the words fell, the emperor turned his head and instructed the chief of the chamberlain.

The chief attendant got the order, and immediately stepped forward, walked to Cuijing, bent down, and was about to check her arm, Cuijing was like an electric shock for a moment, and his whole body trembled violently, "Don't, don't." ”

Desperately wanted to retreat, but was grabbed by the head of the chamberlain, and in the blink of an eye, the slender arm under the loose sleeves was exposed in front of everyone.

Even the chief chamberlain couldn't help but gasp in shock at the scene in front of him.

Cuijing's arm, the part that exposes the sleeves, is only a wrist to the arm wrist, but this short section is a new injury and an old injury overlapped, bruises and blood stains, needle eyes, densely packed, intertwined, people can't help but feel numb on the scalp.

The wound on his arm was suddenly exposed, and Cuijing's tears rained down like rain, biting his lip tightly, and his face was so white that there was no trace of blood.

The emperor was angry, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, and said, "Where did this injury come from?"

Cui Jing subconsciously glanced at Concubine Li, turned her eyes to the emperor and said: "Yes......" hesitated for a moment, as if she had made up her mind, and said quickly: "It was Hui Guifei Niangniang who beat it, so the slave maid discovered the secret of Hui Guifei Niangniang, so she passed it to Concubine Li, and the slave maid wanted to please Concubine Li, so that she asked the slave and maid out, and the slave maid did not want to serve and suffer at Hui Guifei Niangniang anymore." ”

Cuijing is a palace maid who waters flowers and cultivates grass at Hui Guifei, what can she do to provoke Hui Guifei to treat her like this.

Cui Jing's words suddenly seemed like a basin of oil poured on Xiao Yu's charcoal fire, Xiao Yu immediately burst into flames, "Fart! My mother has always been kind to the palace, when did she beat you? Why did she beat you? It's easy to talk about it, but you can tell some credentials, if you can't say one, two, three, I will send you to the Shen Criminal Division!"

Cui Jing's eyelids jumped in fright, "The slave maid doesn't go to the Prudential Criminal Division, the slave doesn't go to the Prudential Criminal Division......" Douda's tears fell, and the whole person seemed to have been drained of his soul, without a trace of strength, and sat there softly, but his eyes looked towards Concubine Li from time to time.

Because there was a concubine in the middle, Concubine Li and Gan naturally couldn't notice her eyes, but the emperor who was sitting on the top saw it clearly, and he only felt strange, and slapped the table in front of him with a "snap", "Say! Why did Concubine Hui punish you?"

Concubine Li only thought that Cuijing was abused like this, all because Cuijing showed favor to her several times, which provoked Hui Guifei's eyes, and she couldn't help but feel a little moved, just thinking that after this catastrophe, she must have thought of getting Cuijing out of Hui Guifei.

But he didn't dare to say a word for her.

Cui Jing was already frightened, and suddenly heard the emperor slap the table, and he was even more shocked for a moment, and fell prostrate on the ground, "Because...... Because...... Because the slave knocked over Hui Guifei's favorite vase. ”

Xiao Yu ......, "Your excuse, can you be a little more clumsy?" Glancing at Cuijing, Xiao Yu looked angry, turned his head to the emperor and said, "Father, it's better to throw the Shen Penal Division, and you will know the result in three or two clicks, so as not to listen to her cry wolf here." ”
