Citron subconsciously asked Concubine Tong for help, but Concubine An's expression froze, and she asked coldly, "What's the matter?" Citron seems to be very familiar with Concubine Tong!"

Concubine Tong roared angrily: "You don't want to talk nonsense! This palace doesn't know this cheap maid at all!!"

Hearing Tong Guifei's words, the citron fell into the abyss, her body trembled, and she couldn't help shouting: "Niangniang, how can you turn your face and deny people?!"

After the citron shouted this, Concubine Tong's eyes widened, and she trembled and shouted anxiously: "Shut up! You dare to slander this palace!

Kangxi raised his hand and said, "Slow down......"

After a slight pause, Kangxi narrowed his cold phoenix eyes, "You mean, everything was instructed by Tong Jia's family?!"

Citron's face trembled, she nodded, and said quickly: "Yes! It was Concubine Tong who asked the slave to monitor Jia Concubine, and the slaves she gave to the slaves, the slaves were all under her bed!"

Kangxi said coldly: "Go and check if it's true immediately!"

Concubine Tong Guifei's face was pale at the moment, but she tried her best to justify: "Your Majesty, someone must have instructed this cheap maid to slander the concubine......! I don't know her at all!"

Kangxi responded to Concubine Tong with a frighteningly cold look. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

A layer of cold sweat had already appeared on Concubine Tong's forehead.

About two quarters of an hour later, Li Dequan came back, still holding a large bag of things in his hand, he opened the heavy package, and presented it, which was full of silver ingots and a golden bracelet.

Zhao Yan said: "The silver may not be able to find the source, this bracelet ......" All the jewelry of the palace concubine is made by the manufacturing office, and there will be a record of which palace it is sent to in the end.

Concubine Tong looked at the golden bracelet, and couldn't help but have a look of surprise in her eyes: "This ...... This can't be!!This bracelet, the concubine didn't reward her!It must have been stolen by her!!"

Kangxi slapped the kang heavily and scolded angrily: "Steal?!, how can a palace maid from another palace sneak into Jingren Palace and steal this thing?!!

Kangxi's roar was deafening. Frightened, Concubine Tong was weak, so she knelt on the ground with a pop, Concubine Tong said with tears in her eyes and a face full of grievances: "The concubine really doesn't know why this bracelet is ......"

"Enough! I don't want to hear your quibbles!!" Kangxi roared angrily, interrupting Concubine Tong's defense.

Kangxi coldly glanced at the citron who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, "So, it was Tong Jia's who instructed you to murder Jia Concubine and the emperor's heir?!"

Concubine Tong's eyes were full of horror, and she hurriedly looked back at the citron.

Citron's face was full of confusion, and she couldn't stop shaking her head: "No! Concubine Tong just asked the slave to monitor Jia Concubine, and didn't let the slave harm Jia Concubine! Those things really weren't done by the slave! The slave didn't dare to murder the emperor's heir!!"

Concubine Tong breathed a sigh of relief.

But how could Kangxi believe it? He snorted coldly, "Stubborn!" and ordered: "Li Dequan, immediately send her to the Criminal Division!! Torture her overnight! I will hear the results tomorrow! Otherwise, you are the only one who asks!"

Li Dequan tightened, gritted his teeth and said, "Huh!"

Hearing these words, Concubine Tong's face turned pale, and she hurriedly asked with tears: "Is the emperor going to bend into a trick?"

Kangxi didn't respond to her words, he only looked at Concubine Tong Guifei coldly, and his tone was as heavy as a thousand pounds: "Temporarily grounding Tong Jia's family in Jingren Palace, no one is allowed to visit without my will!!"

A word seemed to hit Tong Guifei's heart, Tong Guifei's body shook, her eyes were full of tears of grievance, and she couldn't help arguing loudly: "Someone deliberately framed her! The concubine is wronged!"

However, Kangxi didn't believe her, and didn't even look at her anymore.

The two eunuchs stepped forward and put the most noble concubine of the Six Palaces out of the house!!

Zhao Yan saw it in her eyes, and her heart was happy!

Concubine An also had a happy look on her face, and she bent her knees and said: "Since the emperor is in charge, the concubine will retire." ”

Kangxi nodded.

Finally, Zhong Cui Palace fell silent.

The hall was quiet, Kangxi looked at Zhao Yan with deep eyes, looked at her tightly wrapped feet, and couldn't help asking, "It hurts, right?"

Zhao Yan smiled gently: "It's okay, but it hurts badly when I just stepped on it." It's going to be fine. ”

Kangxi sighed faintly, and reached out to caress Zhao Yan's delicate jade-like cheeks, "Concubine...... If it was really her this time, I wouldn't have indulged her anymore. ”

Zhao Chang's heart was happy, it was true that Concubine Tong had the intention of harming her last time, but unfortunately Kangxi didn't believe it, but now this time she designed it single-handedly, but Kangxi suspected that Concubine Tong was not far from ten.

Thinking of this, I felt a little lost in my heart.

"Concubine...... After all, there is no big problem, Concubine Tong is just an attempted crime. It's really not a big crime. Zhao Yan smiled bitterly, "Just like the previous time, the concubine is still good." ”

Kangxi said with a tiger face: "What a 'good and dignified', your feet are tied like this!"

Zhao Yan lifted her feet, which were wrapped like zongzi......

Belch......

After a long time, Zhao Yan lowered her eyes and said, "Your Majesty...... Didn't you say before that Concubine Tong didn't dare to murder the imperial heir? Why is she ...... now?"

Kangxi pondered for a moment, "I also have some doubts about this. ”

Sure enough, in my mind, the mother family is too important, and even with Concubine Tong has become an extremely important person. Therefore, Concubine Tong is the most difficult concubine in this palace to bring down - so, at the beginning, she didn't want to be an enemy of Concubine Tong, but the development of things stepped out of her expectations step by step.

She has only been in the palace for a year, and Concubine Tong's hatred for her is far greater than that of any one in the six palaces.

Not only because she is favored, but also because she is unwilling to surrender! Her intentional or unintentional actions have already leveraged Concubine Tong's status and foundation in the Six Palaces little by little—therefore, they are undying enemies!

In the face of such an enemy, she must strike before the other party makes another move!!

It is a matter of survival for herself and the child in her womb, she can't be soft on her heart just because of Concubine Tong's short-term overtures!!

"In the final analysis, it was the concubine who caused her to lose her fourth elder brother, and also caused her to lose the emperor's favor. It is natural that she hates her concubines. Zhao Yan said in a low voice, "Concubine Tong has been in the palace for so long, why has she been so neglected? It is understandable that she has lost her mind and done impulsive things because of this. ”

Zhao Yan gave the most reasonable explanation to Kangxi's doubts.

Women are easily impulsive. A jealous woman is more likely to lose her mind impulsively.

Kangxi's face instantly became gloomy: "No matter what the reason, I will never tolerate doing something to murder my heir!!"

Zhao Yan sighed: "But Concubine Tong is different from others, she is the cousin of the emperor's relatives and the daughter of the Tong family......"

Kangxi snorted coldly: "The daughter of the Tong family, she is not the only one!!"

Zhao Yan was shocked, what does Kangxi mean by this?!

The daughter of the Tong family, she is not the only one......

Meaning, Concubine Tong is not unique, not irreplaceable!!

Other words...... If Concubine Tong really convicted of murdering the child in her womb, would Kangxi kill Concubine Tong?

The speculation in her heart didn't dare to really ask after all.
