Chapter 303: Concubine Min's Double Carving Scheme
At dusk, the golden Qibao glazed palace lamp at the entrance of the new palace was replaced with a dull ivory yellow nasa lamp. The four eunuchs who usually guard the door www.biquge.info Pen, Fun, and Pavilion were also taken away by Concubine Min for a reason.
The palace gate of the new palace was hidden, and a heavy twilight seeped in from outside the door, climbing around the courtyard like a ghost, as if waiting for something.
After it was completely dark, the Hanyang Palace gradually quieted down, except for the occasional footsteps of the forbidden guards passing by, the rest was silent.
After dinner, Concubine Min didn't say much. She sat on top of the soft collapse, her fingers rubbing back and forth against a red gold phoenix bracelet on her left wrist, but the expression on her face was thoughtful.
At this moment, Bao Lai walked in from the outer hall, and when he saw Concubine Min alone, he stepped forward and whispered, "Niangniang, I brought the person you wanted,"
When Concubine Min heard this, she immediately said, "Bring him in quickly." ”
Soon a man dressed in eunuch clothes walked in. When he saw Concubine Min, he immediately bowed his head and bowed: "The villain greets Niangniang." ”
After speaking, he raised his head and looked at Concubine Min nervously, it turned out that this person was the deputy manager of the Hanging Lang Mansion!
Concubine Min glanced at him and asked as usual, "How did you do the things entrusted to you before?" ”
The deputy steward's body stiffened after hearing this, and he whispered: "The villain is incompetent, and the medicine given by the mother is refusing to be put in the mouth of the Taifu." This person is very alert, and even the white water sent in, he has to put it under his nose and smell it. ”
"If he doesn't smell the smell, he won't take a sip, otherwise he won't touch the bowl of water even if he is so thirsty that his lips crack."
After hearing this, Concubine Min laughed sensibly: "What a master, I really don't know what he thinks?" Hengzhi is a death, it is better to be happy and happy in the past. ”
"The medicine given to him by the palace is to hope that he will go quickly, and he doesn't have to wait for the emperor to come back and use those torturous things in the Hanging Lang Mansion on him. But he is like this, it really makes people laugh to death, stupid to home. ”
Speaking of this, Concubine Min pointed to the letter in front of her and said, "Today, Concubine Guifei went to the Hanging Lang Mansion to get this letter, but it happened that they lost this letter on the heavenly street of the palace. ”
"Fortunately, someone from the main palace passed by there and delivered the letter. Now," Concubine Min paused for a moment and stared deeply at the deputy administrator of the Hanging Lang Mansion: "This palace wants you to send this letter to the Taifu." ”
The deputy steward nodded and said, "The villain respectfully obeys Concubine Min's instructions, and must hand over the letter to the Taifu himself." ”
Concubine Min raised her eyes and said coldly to the deputy manager: "You still don't go in person, it's better to find a smart and clever one and let him send the letter to Fu." ”
"Because the white silk in this letter is highly poisonous, don't touch yourself, understand?"
The deputy steward's face changed, and his skin took on a blue glow of fear. He trembled and said: "The villain Xie Niangniang reminded that the villain must handle this matter well for Niangniang." ”
Concubine Min smiled lightly when she heard this. A smug glint flashed in his eyes.
In less than an hour, the deputy steward appeared in the Hanging Nut. He first walked around the courtyard like a walk, but his eyes were not idle to check the inside and outside of the hanging nut mansion.
After confirming that he was safe, the deputy steward called a jailer named Bai Shui, who looked to be only about twenty years old, but he had a shrewd face.
As soon as he saw the deputy steward, he stepped forward and flattered: "I haven't seen you for a day, you are getting more and more energetic, it's really ......"
"Ahem, ahem." The deputy steward interrupted him with a cough: "You see, I am getting older, and my health is getting worse day by day. It's not good to be good again. ”
"I have a letter here, which is an important physical evidence in the case of mutiny, and I wanted to take the letter to the Taifu in person and ask him to identify it. Can ...... now Look at my body, but I can't go. ”
When Bai Shui heard this, he immediately volunteered and said: "Worry about the adult, the villain is duty-bound!" Please give the letter to the villain, and the villain will help you do this well, and you will never be ashamed. ”
When the deputy steward heard him say this, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness. He tried to control his emotions, and finally said in an extremely cold voice: "You must take out this letter, hand it to the Taifu, and prevent him from tearing it up, do you know?" ”
"Yes, yes." Bai Shui replied: "The villain must do what the adults tell him." ”
The deputy steward then handed Wang Chongbei's letter to Bai Shui. Bai Shui took the letter, did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately walked to the east wing where the felons were held.
Under the moonlight, Taifu's face no longer had the brilliance it used to be, it was pale and a little puffy, like the belly of a dead fish by the river.
Bai Shui opened the chain of the prison door, walked in, and saw Taifu handing him a letter and said, "This is Wang Chongbei's last letter saying that it is for you, you can open it and take a look." ”
Taifu didn't listen to it, and when he heard Wang Chongbei's name, he only gritted his teeth with hatred - this stupid man, if he hadn't revealed the news, how could we have rushed to raise troops? After the army was raised, if there was no random arrangement by this person, there would not be such an ending as today. So far, do you still have the face to show me the last letter?
"Ahh Taifu spat fiercely to the side: "This thief, you can die as much as you love, give me any desperate letter, I don't want to read it, you take it back quickly." Don't let this person's stuff stain my clothes. ”
Bai Shui was a little anxious when he heard this: "Now that the emperor has not returned, there is no law to punish your crimes." also called you a Taifu, which is considered to lift you. Don't be embarrassed, you are now a criminal of the imperial court, and you are not a product of the court, and you still put on a stinky shelf, you can do whatever you want, and talk less nonsense! ”
I didn't expect this Taifu to be very stubborn, his neck was stalked, what Ren Baishui said, just make up his mind and don't look at it!
Bai Shui is in a hurry now. He patted his chest and said a big thing in front of the deputy steward just now, and now this old man just doesn't cooperate, how should he explain it when he goes to the deputy steward's office later?
Thinking of this, Bai Shui was even more depressed, he pointed to Taifu's nose and scolded: "You old coffin, this is an important piece of evidence in this case, and it will give you a lot of face for you to see." Don't you take this opportunity to make amends, even if you don't think about yourself, but don't you think about the young son in the family? ”
Taifu didn't hear it in front of or behind, but he noticed that there was a sentence in the middle of Bai Shui: "This is important evidence in this case." This sentence woke up Taifu: "That's right, Wang Chongbei is the main culprit of the Luoyang Mutiny, and his last letter will definitely write some confidential things and names." ”
"The jailer showed me the letter, just to ask me to identify whether what was written in Wang Chongbei's letter was true. If it is true, then Cheng Xin will immediately send troops to make up for it, and wipe out the few remaining teams of us, and at that time, our strength will be cleansed overnight, and Zhao Yuan's country will become more and more stable. ”
