The candlelight flickered, and Zhao Jingyi's pen tip did not pause, but he ordered in a cold voice, "Prepare a coffin and send it to Qingci Nunnery." β
"Yes."
After a while, Zhao Jingyi suddenly asked, "What did she leave behind?" β
The door was pushed open, and the guard walked in softly, handing him a plain letter sticker.
After the incident, Aunt Qiu dressed up and waited for Zhao Jingyi's return, just to take another look at this person, but β‘β‘, her prince never took a step from beginning to end, and finally despaired, the autumn flowers withered, and the dust turned into dust.
After all, it was a former woman, Wei Jia watched Zhao Jingyi take the letter, took out the envelope, and knew that although his prince didn't say anything, his heart was unhappy after all.
The letter is not long, it can be read in less than a cup of tea, and after reading it, Zhao Jingyi folded the letter again, put it in the envelope, put it in his hand, and raised his eyes to look at Wei Jia, "Qingzhi Pavilion has confessed?" β
"Recruited." Wei Jia took out the confession from his arms and respectfully handed it to Zhao Jingyi, "Lord Wang, Zihong can't stand it, she has lost her breath, her confession is here, she has been re-examined back and forth five times, and the things she recruited have been repeatedly verified, there should be nothing to hide." As for Aunt Qing, she used the same means, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to survive tonight. β
For this woman, Zhao Jingyi's eyebrows flashed with deep disgust, and she accepted the confession and placed it together with Aunt Qiu's letter.
He waved his hand and told the armor to pull back.
The guard hesitated, but didn't move.
"Anything else?"
"Gu's mother's family ......"
Zhao Jingyi looked at him, and Wei Jia said: "The prince ordered someone to send Gu's mother and his family a cup of poisoned wine, sold their daughter Jasmine's family, and demoted the relevant people to Zhuangzi. β
Zhao Jingyi didn't say good or bad, just said, "Just do it, enter the palace tomorrow." β
The palace door was closed, the inside and outside were not connected, and the news was always delivered with delay.
When a few corpses were sent out from the back door of King Rui's Mansion in the early morning, King Shu couldn't hold back any longer, and rode on his horse and hurried to King Rui's Mansion.
Compared with himself and King Liang, this cousin, who was cold and indifferent to others, was more valued by the emperor, because unlike other clans, there was no need to buy their accounts at all, and he tried everything to win them over, but with little effect.
Of course, Zhao Jingyi never neglected or obstructed them, he was not on the same road, the well water did not interfere with the river water, so naturally he would not act according to their feelings.
Four years ago, the shocking news of poisoning the concubine and killing the concubine with a rod that caused a sensation in the entire capital is still a lingering shadow over the head of the Rui Wangfu. Now putting aside the small role of Lin Xi, Aunt Qiu wants to murder the son again under the influence of Aunt Qing, and even a saint can't bear this breath.
Behind the two things is the dispute in the harem, the evidence points directly to the virtuous concubine, the king of Shu thought that Zhao Jingyi was completely spread out in front of Emperor Xia Jing mercilessly, what would happen to his mother concubine, he panicked, and in the same way, he was further away from the chair.
The King of Shu quickly arrived at the door of the Rui Wang's Mansion with a calm face, and walked in as soon as he got off the horse.
"This king wants to see your lord."
The porter was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Your Highness, the prince has entered the palace." β
What the!
The face of the King of Shu suddenly became gloomy and terrifying, and he was stunned before he asked angrily: "How long have you been gone?" β
The porter was frightened and shrank for a moment, and whispered back, "It's been an hour of incense......
It's not too late!
The king of Shu turned around suddenly, the horse had not yet been bolted, and now the fast horse should have time to catch up and stop in front of the palace gate.
However, as soon as he touched the reins, King Liang rode up to him, smiling, "Fifth brother, my brother is looking for you on an important matter, but let me find you." β
With a face that looked elegant, the King of Shu clenched his whip and couldn't wait to throw it over.
Emperor Xia Jing was rectifying the harem, and the various confessions submitted by Gonggong Cui made his mood worse and worse, and he didn't even see the cabinet ministers, so naturally he didn't want to see Zhao Jingyi.
However, the father-in-law took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, the prince is kneeling outside the Heart Nourishing Palace, saying that he dare not deceive the emperor if he has something important." The slave and maid looked at the face, but it was really heavy, and people had to freeze if they stood within a radius of five miles. β
Zhao Jingyi rarely disobeyed his will so stubbornly, and Emperor Xia Jingdi frowned and asked, "Do you know anything about it?" β
"Shhh...... The prince didn't say it, but the slave maid vaguely heard that it was related to Xiao Shizi. β
Emperor Xia Jing didn't want to listen to any intercession or fall into the trap now, and when his father-in-law said this, he felt that it was not impossible to see him, so he nodded.
Zhao Jingyi followed his father-in-law into the main hall and knelt down, "The nephew and nephew visited the imperial uncle, disturbed in the morning, and asked the imperial uncle to atone for his sins, long live the emperor." β
Emperor Xia Jing squinted his eyes and looked at his nephew who was kneeling straight with his head bowed, and couldn't help but feel a little strange. Zhao Jingyi, who has always been straightforward, even respectfully called the emperor in private, was called "Uncle Huang" when he saw it today, which shows that the things he played have nothing to do with the court, and are mostly "family affairs".
He waved his hand, let Zhao Jingyi calm down, and said softly: "I entered the palace early in the morning to see me, it can be seen that it is an important matter, you and my uncle and nephew don't have to beat around the bush, I always favor you, let's say, what happened to Rong'er?" β
Zhao Jingyi got up and glanced at her father-in-law.
Father-in-law looked at Emperor Xia Jing again, the latter raised his eyebrows, glanced at Zhao Jingyi suspiciously, and finally nodded.
When the father-in-law came, he swept away the dust, retreated from the palace maids and chamberlains who were waiting in the palace, and stood by the door himself.
Can you say that now? Emperor Xia Jing raised his chin in motion.
Zhao Jingyi took out a stack of white paper and an envelope from his sleeve and presented it with both hands, "Rong'er is fine, just a little frightened." The ministers and nephews ordered people to torture them strictly, and they got these, the stakes are very important, they dare not hide it, and they involve a lot, it is difficult to decide, think about it, and you need to show your uncle. β
The white paper is not only the confession of Aunt Qing and Zihong, but also the slaves who secretly go back and forth, and Shan'an, the nun in Qingci'an, can't hold on to confess. Emperor Xia Jing only needed to see this, the anger in his heart had been poured with oil and burned, and then he saw the letter from Aunt Qiu's sincere but honest explanation of how she was picked, and the belief of six points immediately became nine points.
The green tendons on his forehead jumped, and with a "snap-" sound, Emperor Xia Jing slapped the letter and paper on the table, and the sound was so loud that the father-in-law by the door immediately knelt down and called: "The emperor is angry." β
Zhao Jingyi didn't stand for long, so he naturally knelt down, and then calmly announced: "The Qiu family hanged themselves, and the Qing family and related people have been executed by their ministers and nephews after confessing, only the nun is in custody, please ask the imperial uncle to signal." β
Emperor Xia Jingdi looked at Zhao Jingyi with some surprise, he didn't care if these sluts died or not, but Zhao Jingyi dealt with the people in the know and submitted a confession, and he didn't even leave the letter before Qiu's death, did he plan to settle the matter and not seek justice?
The sad past four years ago is still vivid, and I don't know it, but now I find that someone has caused such a tragedy, and the wife and son are dead, who can bear it? What's more, four years later, he stretched out his poisonous claws, if it weren't for Zhao Yuanrong's own cleverness, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Emperor Xia Jingdi's boundless anger was not only because the concubine dared to carry him behind his back and put her hand into the mansion of the important minister, but also used vicious means to interfere in his family affairs, and the revelation of the conspiracy simply discredited the royal face, what a big debt! How can we appease the pillars of the country?
Zhao Jingyi is a super-grade prince with heavy troops and a pivotal role in the court, and the Rui Wangfu has any tendency in the position of the prince, and the consequences are simply difficult to control.
Thinking of this, Emperor Xia Jing turned up his surging anger again, he reluctantly pressed it down, revealing regret, "Jingyi, I will give you and Rong'er an explanation!" Good boy, get up. "No matter what, he must be appeased in the Rui Wangfu.
Zhao Jingyi didn't move, he didn't even bend his back, he still knelt on the ground, and said lightly: "Uncle Xie, it's just that Rong'er is fine, so why bother Uncle Xie anymore?" The relevant people have been disposed of, and the nephew who should have been released has already come out, so he shouldn't have disturbed his uncle, but he heard that Leng Mei in the palace was making waves again, thinking that maybe it was related to this, so he entered the palace to pay attention. β
Regardless of whether Zhao Jingyi is retreating or sincere, these words made Emperor Xia Jing extremely ironed, and he hurriedly leaned over to help his intimate nephew up, "You understand me, I understand in my heart, it's just that my imperial nephew has suffered such a big grievance, even if I agree, your imperial grandmother can't explain it." β
Speaking of this, Emperor Xia Jing was jealous of his younger brother who died early, and patted Zhao Jingyi's shoulder, "Go back and appease Rong'er for me, but at a young age, I suffered such a big sin, alas!" Laifu, find out the set of white jade chess that was paid tribute in the south and send it to the Rui Wangfu, and you can do the rest. β
Zhao Jingyi didn't make sense, so Xie En retreated.
The father-in-law delivered it to the door, and said almost silently: "Lord, I'm afraid that the virtuous concubine will not be able to do it." β
Concubine Xian watched Emperor Xia Jing walk in slowly with the light on his back, his expression was not clear, the golden dragon with teeth and claws on the bright yellow dragon robe seemed to be able to rush over and strangle her throat in the next moment, and with the slow pace step by step, the feeling of suffocation became more and more intense, pressing her heart and making it difficult to beat.
Finally-"Smack! An incomparably crisp slap resounded through Lizheng Palace.
Concubine Xian was suddenly knocked to the ground vigorously, and even the loose hairpin on her head was thrown to the ground and slid away.
Her face was hot, she didn't care about the rapid redness and swelling of her cheeks and the pain of the bumps, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, her thin body trembling, "The concubine is guilty......
"You're so daring! 500,000 troops are fighting abroad, and you dare to calculate the heirs of his family, who will borrow your courage! Aren't you afraid that the court will be unstable, the family and country will be unstable, and the frontier will be lost? With such inferior means and such a ruthless scheme, how can you be a "virtuous"? Emperor Xia Jing was already furious on the way here, and roared directly under the slap, "What's even more ridiculous is that you think he doesn't know, after four years, he actually repeats his old tricks, and even more so it moves to Concubine Shu's head, you really don't take me seriously!" Do you think I'm so stupid and foolish? β
Concubine Xian raised her head suddenly, looked at Emperor Xia Jingdi's dangerous gaze in horror, and shook her head fiercely, "The concubine doesn't dare, the concubine doesn't dare!" β
"The human and material evidence is here, why don't you dare now!"
The confession that belonged to Aunt Qing and Mrs. Shan'an was thrown in front of Concubine Xian, her eyes widened, and she hurriedly took it to look at it, and then cried and crawled at the feet of Emperor Xia Jing, and pulled the hem of his clothes, "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty, Qingzhi is indeed the concubine who hinted at being sent to the Rui Wangfu to serve the prince, the concubine pointed to the Yao family, so the concubine was selfish, but the concubine didn't know that she was so bold and dared to assassinate the prince!" The affairs of the frontier, the prince is extremely important, although the concubine is a woman, she also knows that the emperor is concerned about the frontier and wants to share your worries, how dare she secretly do such a treasonous thing. It's just that after the incident, the concubine heard about it and was faintly uneasy, but she really didn't know the truth, but the concubine really didn't dare to deceive the emperor! This time the concubine is even more wronged, I really don't know that the slut dares to make waves, so that the prince misunderstands, the concubine really has suffering, the poison of the concubine, it is impossible to get it, the emperor is sage! β
Emperor Xia Jing withdrew, but was hugged tightly by Concubine Xian, frowned and asked coldly, "You don't know?" So how did Leng Mei come from in this confession? β
Concubine Xian was stunned for a moment, clenched her fists, bit her lip, and shook her head, "Qingzhi's slut, how can you believe the bite before she dies, no matter how powerful the concubine is, she can't get the poison of the previous dynasty, please let the emperor know about it." β
Emperor Xia Jing smiled coldly, the danger in his eyes was like substance, he lowered his head and stared at Concubine Xian's eyes tightly, "Concubine Ai, to be honest, I may be able to spare you." Otherwise, you can't keep it yourself, and you won't be able to escape with the King of Shu. β
Concubine Xian's heart suddenly tightened, her face was as white as a ghost, and there was a sense of sadness under the cloak, she let go of Emperor Xia Jing, leaned over the ground, and said firmly and slowly: "Your Majesty!" The concubines don't dare to deceive! β
"Good! Very good! Emperor Xia Jing nodded and smiled, "My beloved concubine, I really don't shed tears when I don't see the coffin, the old palace man in the Anping Marquis Mansion, do you remember?" β
Immediately, Concubine Xian was speechless, and if she continued to quibble, it would not be at this point.
So he cried and begged: "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that she is wrong...... Knowing that I am wrong, for the sake of the king of Shu, for the sake of the king of Shu, ......"
"Spare you, I can't explain to the Rui Wangfu, I can't explain to the Queen Mother, and I have no shame to face the frontier soldiers."
Emperor Xia Jing looked down at the miserable woman, the despair in his eyes made him suddenly unbearable, and after more than 20 years, this overnight anger was gone, but what was left was reluctance.
"From now on, go to the concubine position and be demoted to a beauty...... For the sake of the King of Shu, temporarily live in Lizheng Palace, be grounded for one year, and are not allowed to visit, in order to observe the after-effects. β
As soon as Emperor Xia Jing finished speaking, he glanced at her again, "I hope you are doing it yourself." β
Concubine Xian, no, today's Zuo beauty, with tears in her eyes, trembled and knelt down to thank her, "Concubine Xie Lord Longen." β
Emperor Xia Jing suddenly became bored and was about to leave, but he saw a chamberlain running in in a hurry, kneeling on the ground, holding his hands high above his head and presenting a white rice paper, "Your Majesty, this is Cui Zhang's order to present it to His Majesty immediately." β
Cui Gonggong......
Zuo Meiren suddenly stared at the piece of paper with palpitations, watching Emperor Xia Jingdi take it and open it, she moved her lips, but her whole body couldn't move.
Then she saw that Xia Jingdi's face suddenly changed, and she turned her head to look at her, and the strange gaze made her whole body cold, as if she had fallen into eighteen layers of hell.
Suddenly, her eyes were red, and the warm liquid was cheap on her face, and when she looked at it again, Xia Jingdi's body shook and slowly fell backwards.
"Your Majestyβ" The scream came out of her chest, Zuo Meiren got up in a panic and ran to the emperor, and the father-in-law threw away the dust in fright, and was able to hold the fallen emperor, and then poured into the forbidden army.
