Chapter 121: The palace maid confesses
"Wanyue, I ask you again, where did you get the Jezi Vine!" Qi Yuan spoke in a cold voice, and the eyes that looked at Wan Yue also thought it was a sharp sword.
Wan Yue's eyes trembled when she looked at Qi Yuan, but she didn't dare to confess to the queen, otherwise she knew that she would be miserable, even worse than now, and it might even affect her family.
So she had to bear it herself.
"Majesty, majesty, it's really a slave and maid, that thing is...... I bought it from a vendor outside the palace...... But the slave and maid really don't know that the effect of the medicine is so powerful, the slave and the maid really don't know, beg Your Majesty to spare her life......" Wanyue kept kowtowing, and the blood flowed on her forehead, which made people feel very unbearable to look at.
But Qing Shao didn't have a trace of pity when she looked at Wan Yue, because Wan Yue had harmed Yang Yueshu, if Yan Fu hadn't arrived in time, Yang Yueshu would have even ...... So Qingshao didn't want to forgive her.
Even so, she knew that there must be a mastermind behind this matter, and eighty percent of it was done by the queen, otherwise who would have the ability to buy the palace maid next to the queen.
Qing Shao looked at Qi Yuan, she wanted to know how he handled this matter.
Queen, will he move the queen......
"I think it's because this palace maid has a bad heart, the emperor should hurry up and kill this palace maid, and it can be regarded as an explanation to Concubine Yue." Empress Dowager Song spoke lightly, she was very normal about killing a palace maid, because she had long been used to it.
Empress Song also looked at Qi Yuan, and hoped that Qi Yuan would give Wanyue to death, so that she would have no worries at all. Although this is a little unfair to Wanyue, she has no other way than this. What's more, Wanyue has been following her for so many years, and she is not thin on Wanyue, so it is also appropriate for her to pay something for her master.
Thinking like this, Empress Song felt that geography became more and more natural.
"Why is the queen mother so anxious, a palace maid can't run away, of course she has to be interrogated, who knows who else is behind her." Qi Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Queen, Wanyue is your palace maid, what do you think?" ”
Queen Song hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the concubine also agrees with the queen mother's mentions, this palace maid has such a vicious mind and must be killed fiercely, the concubine was blinded by her before she didn't know anyone, and now she has killed Concubine Yue, and the concubine is also very wrong......"
Wanyue below listened to the queen's words, and felt even more like ashes.
Forget it, let's die, she admits it. Who made her a palace maid, and what is her life?
"Come on, press Wanyue to the Criminal Department, and hand it over to Shangshu of the Criminal Department for personal trial." Qi Yuan commanded in a cold voice.
As soon as Qi Yuan's words fell, even if there were guards escorting Wanyue away.
"Wait!" Empress Dowager Song said, "Your Majesty, this is a bit unruly!" ”
Empress Dowager Song looked at Qi Yuan's eyes a little cold, she couldn't let Wanyue be pressed to the Criminal Department, first, the rumors of Qi Qingcang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, were known to everyone, it was said that no matter who he was, no one would not admit his crimes, and secondly, Qi Qingcang was Qi Yuan's henchman, except for Qi Yuan, he didn't recognize anyone else, and the Song family couldn't do anything at all with him.
Therefore, Wanyue must not be allowed to be sent to the Criminal Department.
"What is the opinion of the queen mother?" Qi Yuan had a premonition that the Empress Dowager Song would speak out against it, so he didn't rush to the accident at all.
"Your Majesty, this is just a simple matter of a palace maid drugged and a concubine, why did you need to use the book of the criminal department," Empress Dowager Song said, "If Your Majesty feels that there is something unknown behind it, then it is better to hand Wanyue over to the mourning family, the mourning family must ask clearly, what does the emperor think?" ”
Give it to the Empress Dowager Song?
Qi Yuan suddenly wanted to laugh, if Wanyue was handed over to the Empress Dowager Song, everyone would only see Wanyue's corpse the next day.
"This matter still doesn't bother the queen mother, I have already decided!" Qi Yuan opened his mouth coldly, and as he spoke, he asked people to take Wanyue down.
Looking at Qi Yuan's sarcastic expression, Empress Dowager Song's face was a little ugly, and then she watched Wanyue being escorted away by Qi Yuan's guards.
"Isn't the emperor too self-righteous!" Empress Dowager Song's anger was even greater.
But Qi Yuan had long been accustomed to Empress Dowager Song's anger, so now Qi Yuan's face hadn't changed at all.
"Sister, the emperor also has his own ideas about doing things, not to mention why should a palace maid sister be so angry!" Empress Dowager Guo said at the right time.
"The mourning family is tired, and the queen accompanies the mourning family back." Empress Dowager Song stood up, her eyes full of anger.
Qi Yuan, who didn't care about her words so much, really had his wings getting harder and harder.
If Qi Yuan knew what the Empress Dowager Song was thinking, he would definitely want to thank the Empress Dowager Song for her "compliment".
The Empress Dowager Song left Yuyang Palace with Empress Song.
"The queen mother should also go back to rest, watch your body!" Qi Yuan said with concern, "Let's talk about something tomorrow." ”
Empress Dowager Guo nodded, but when she left, she glanced at Qing Shao, and that look was a little unpredictable.
"The concubine also retired." Since she was going to disperse, Concubine Xin naturally had to go back, and obviously the emperor was in a very unhappy mood now.
But before Concubine Xin was about to leave, Qi Yuan suddenly spoke.
"It's better not to fight for something that doesn't belong to you, otherwise the consequences may be unbearable."
Qi Yuan's words had a beginning and an end, which made people a little confused about what he meant, but Xin Concubine understood.
Whether it was an argument in the imperial dining room over a bowl of bird's nest porridge, or because of the child in her belly who shouldn't have been, neither of these belonged to her.
Concubine Xin's face looked very unsightly, but Qi Yuan didn't care at all.
Concubine Xin reluctantly settled down and thanked the emperor before leaving with the palace maid.
Although everyone else is gone, there are still some palace people from Yuyang Palace left in the inner hall, so Qi Yuan can't say anything to Qing Shao in public, otherwise he will definitely be suspected, although what he wants to do most at the moment is to hold Qing Shao in his arms and comfort him.
But there was no way, Qi Yuan finally instructed them to take good care of Yang Yueshu, and then he could only leave Yuyang Palace.
And Qing Shao is still a little restless now.
Because before Empress Dowager Guo left, she seemed to feel that Empress Dowager Guo glanced at her, that kind of gaze that seemed to be inquisitive and curious.
Why, is she dazzled, or is it ......
The uncertain Qing Shao was also in a trance in the face of Qi Yuan's departure, because she was very worried that her and Qi Yuan's affairs would be known by others.
Now Empress Dowager Guo ...... She really felt like she had a splitting headache. (To be continued.) )
