Chapter 67: Confession

Chapter 67

This matter was written in the annals of history by a few officials in the inner palace, and since then, the concubine Jin of the Qianlong Dynasty, who was prominent in the inner palace and had two sons, has become a thing of the past. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The emperor angrily rushed to the crown and asked the palace maid Xi Qiu if she was guilty?

"Slaves and maids are guilty, and slaves and slaves deserve death." Xi Qiuqiang knelt firmly, looking at the beautifully embroidered carpet on the ground with fearless eyes.

yes, how could she not know! Concubine Ling sat on the main seat of this room, hugged the eleventh elder brother who had already lost her breath and asked her: "I heard that your family is sick, and Yongshou Palace has helped you a lot, but this palace has been negligent, and I haven't had time to ask if the family's illness is cured." ”

Xi Qiu trembled with fright, and still cried with a hint of luck: "Niangniang spare her life, the slave maid was confused for a while to hurt E Changzai's face, but after that, the slave maid really didn't take anything from the Yongshou Palace." ”

She was gambling, and the gambling concubine only knew that she was moving around privately with the palace maid of Yongshou Palace. Anyway, there is no longer E Chang here, and Concubine Ling's attack today is just to govern Yanxi Palace, so it can't be for E Chang to avenge her grievances. The lesser of two evils, Xi Qiu decisively admitted her betrayal of her old master.

In fact, dogs can't change eating, and people can't control their greed.

After E Chang's death, Xi Qiu still intermittently passed a lot of news to Yongshou Palace. It's just that she thinks she is secret, but she doesn't know that she has long been seen by Concubine Ling.

"Take it!" Concubine Ling caressed the eleventh elder brother's face, which had turned from warm to slightly cool, as if she was afraid that she would scare the child in her arms if she said it loudly.

Xi Qiu raised her head for some reason, she really didn't, and the palace maid who gave her the medicine bag at that time only said that it would make E Chang's face itch for a while, and she didn't say anything about the scar. Since then, all they have passed on is news.

Today's Concubine Ling was extraordinarily patient, and gently beckoned to her and said, "Come here......"

Xi Qiu didn't think much about it, and crawled forward on his knees. Concubine Ling continued: "Closer. As he spoke, he grabbed her hand and gently pressed it on Brother Eleven's little hand.

Slightly cold to the touch, Xi Qiu realized that something was wrong. Only the palace maid Lamei is there, but the Dongmei girl who is next to the grandmother and the mother on weekdays is nowhere to be seen. When she came in, she was still asleep as Brother Eleven, but no matter how heavy the baby is, she will be disturbed by the noise, how to beat her when she comes in so far, I haven't heard any trouble from Brother Eleven.

A ridiculous thought flashed in his heart, Xi Qiu was frightened by himself, looked up at Concubine Ling in shock, and subconsciously retracted his hand. It's a pity that she didn't get her wish, so Concubine Niangniang used to look delicate, but at this time, she seemed to have the strength to nail Xi Qiu there.

Then he said, "You took it, you took the grape seed powder and gave it to the grandmother, and conspired to change the dextrin in the medicine...... killed ten, one, ah, brother. ”

Concubine Ling's eyes widened like copper bells, a hideous color flashed on her face, and she stared at Xi Qiu and said word by word.

Xi Qiu shook his head desperately, tears flew down unconsciously, and there was only one thought in his mind: "Eleventh Elder Brother is dead, Eleventh Elder Brother is actually dead!" ”

I don't know when Concubine Ling let go of her hand, she stared at the young face of Brother Eleven. Gently patting in his hand, as if he was hugging a child who was about to fall asleep, his eyes were extremely calm, and there was no sadness or joy. After Xi Qiu broke free, the fear in her heart caused her to crawl out on her knees, but was stopped by Lamei who was standing by the door.

"I advised my sister to calm down, it's not good to go out crying like this." People all have a natural position, for example, Lamei is as loyal as the most unsightly person like Xi Qiu who betrays his master for a few taels of silver. Now I remember that I was afraid, what did I do earlier!

Your family's life is fate, and the rest of the people should die?

"I didn't...... No, sister...... Ah no, girl, the slave maid of the Lamei girl didn't kill the eleventh elder brother...... Slaves really don't. After one blow of strength and then three times of exhaustion, Xi Qiu was already crying and paralyzed on the ground when he was stopped by Lamei again.

The despair in her heart grew like dead grass, and soon spread to all her limbs, and even firmly choked her throat, making her breathless.

"Is there any, does it matter?" Lamei comforted softly, and took out a handkerchief to help Xi Qiu wipe the remaining tears on her face. But the words were like a knife, piercing into people's hearts: "My sister's family's illness has only been cured, and there will be more places to use silver in the future, sister, do you say that what I said is so reasonable?" ”

Xi Qiu's mind didn't know how to think anymore, but he still subconsciously shook his head.

"At the beginning, you took the silver of Yongshou Palace in exchange for the medicine of Echangzai, which hurt the appearance of the concubine, and almost hurt the eleventh elder brother who was still in our mother's belly at the time, and then he didn't know how to repent and secretly spread the affairs of Yanxi Palace." Lamei looked at her as she said and shook her head, and said coldly: "Xi Qiu, what you just said, you are guilty of a capital crime if you say anything." ”

An inexplicable chill rushed up from the soles of his feet, and Xi Qiu shivered.

Lamei's palm was gentle, and she gently pinned the scattered hair on Xi Qiu's cheeks before she said seductively: "Niangniang, this is showing you a clear way." Xi Qiu, haven't you always been thinking about your family? They're all settled down so well now that you don't have to worry about it anymore, isn't that a good thing? If you have done something wrong, you have to admit it, and you have to pay back the sins you have created, so you should think that you have changed your life! ”

Lamei is not so much persuading Xi Qiu as comforting herself.

sent Xi Qiu down to make amends to E Changzai, presumably she will feel a little comforted under Jiuquan, and she will no longer owe her.

E was often in a bad mood when he was injured by Concubine Jia, and often scolded the palace maid to get angry. Xi Qiu was also resentful when he was beaten, and coincidentally he needed silver to sit down with a mistake.

When he calmed down and thought about it, he didn't regret hurting E Changzai in Xiqiu, but his family was already in the hands of Concubine Ling. Do as Lamei says, and she will die herself; Otherwise, the whole family will die!

Xi Qiu didn't have a choice, so she admitted: "It's the slave medicine powder given by the sister in Concubine Jia's palace, she said that it was the same as the medicinal power mixed with Echang at that time, but it would make people itch for a while." As he spoke, he knocked his head and helped him: "The emperor spares his life, the slave and maid really didn't know what grape seed powder was at that time, and the slave and maid deserved to die, but the slave and maid didn't think about harming the eleventh elder brother!" ”

", you're lying." Concubine Jia rushed over in a panic, kicked Xi Qiu hard, and turned to plead with the emperor: "Long live the lord, the concubine is wronged, this palace maid must have been framed by a traitor." Your Majesty! ”

She cried miserably, making the concubine a thousand times more miserable than her, and fell under the feet of Qianlong Ye with a snort: "Your Majesty...... Child, our little eleven...... He's just a kid! ”
