Chapter 489: Going Farther and Farther (Two More Seeking Powder)
Zhao Qing approached the cuckoo and asked uneasily, "Sister County Lord, is there something wrong?" β
Zhao Chen glared at her and said in a low voice, "I told you not to be impulsive." β
Zhao Qing lowered his head aggrievedly, and secretly glanced at the tower-like general out of the corner of his eye, thinking that he really had hills and ravines in his chest, and he would resolve a crisis quietly?
The cuckoo whispered, "I don't know yet." It's just that this thing is a little strange: why are the eight girls here alone? And Brother Jiu'er, we grew up together, people are the best, and we will never die without help. He was frightened by Lin Chun's matter. Besides, the palace is complicated, and it is not wrong to be cautious. β
Zhao Qing listened to the weakness of her heart, and wanted to say anything but didn't say anything, so she had to watch the progress of things.
Young Master Kong was the most righteous person, he still felt that Jiu'er had behaved inappropriately just now, but he couldn't blame him because of what happened to Lin Chun, so he turned his gaze to that Zhou Langzhong and was angry with him.
"It's all you guys making a fuss! In the long run, no matter how many people are killed, no one dares to come to the rescue, the world is all caused by you! β
Zhou Langzhong was very wolf, and said angrily: "Xiaguan just mentioned yΓ¬, and did not coerce." My lord didn't firmly oppose this matter at the beginning! β
Young Master Kong said angrily: "If people don't take concubines, what's the matter with the old man?" β
Look at him, a saint's son, what has he been doing lately!
The tenth princess whispered in the ear of the ninth princess: "I really don't blame this general. He's also hard. β
She had heard Qin Yan say that the eighth princess had framed Lin Chun, so she said so.
The ninth princess wondered, but after a while, the cuckoo changed and didn't say anything. Why did the tenth sister also change her tone?
The tenth princess pulled her and quietly stepped aside, and said the eighth princess about harming Lin Chun in three or two sentences.
The ninth princess covered her mouth in horror: Eighth sister is too crazy!
Lianqin was interrogated by Mama Cui. The rhetoric is not round, and it is full of loopholes.
In a hurry. She cried that the girl must have been murdered.
Hearing this, the cuckoo bumped up angrily, and asked solemnly, "Did you see someone harming your girl?" Who is this going to climb? You can think about it, don't hurt others, but put yourself in it! β
Lang Qin looked at her in fear and shrunk and said, "Slave maid...... The slave maid guessed. β
When the cuckoo was not powerful before, she dared to fight against her master; Now that she is so favored in the palace, she can't stand the momentum; And she had a ghost in her heart and felt that her heart was weak, so she was angry.
"You can guess this kind of thing?" Mama Cui said with a cold face.
The girls who originally sympathized with Qin Yan and blamed Jiu'er were all puzzled, and felt that her master and servant were so strange. Is there really a conspiracy?
Their gaze at Jiu'er was complicated.
Jiu'er is analyzing the case with Du Juan. Adopt the method of reasoning.
Zhao Qing didn't hold grudges at all, and leaned in front of him to listen.
At this moment, the dragon guards who had been checking on the mountain and stone came back and told the prince that there were only two people's footprints near the mountain stone, and unlike the man's, it was the woman's embroidered shoe prints.
As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the kneeling feet of the piano.
The prince shouted to Mama Cui: "Take her to verify!" β
Mama Cui answered, and ordered the two mammas to drag up the piano and go to check the shoe prints.
A dragon guard crept up on the prince. A whisper whispered in his ear.
Prince Yanwei's eyes flashed when he heard this, and then he returned to normal.
At this time, news also got from the island in the middle of the lake, and the king of Shunjun was ordered to bring people over.
Approached. Hearing that it was Qin Yan who fell into the water, her face suddenly turned extremely ugly.
Because he asked Qin Yan how he fell into the water.
But no one could answer him, and therefore no one knew about it.
The prince whispered to him, "It should be an accident." The fifth brother should wait until the evening to go back and ask his niece. What are you going to do in that place? And that girl, who left her master there alone. Poured himself away. Isn't that a strange thing? β
King Shunjun was furious when he heard this, and glared at the piano that was brought back by Mama Cui.
The piano was so frightened that he lay down. Shrunk and shivered.
Mama Cui replied to the prince: "Back to Your Highness, the footprints belong to the piano and the eighth girl." β
The prince nodded, vaguely understanding the reason in his heart.
It's just that there is one more thing that is not clear: why did Qin Yan go to that place for no reason?
After thinking about it, he ordered Mama Cui to say, "Take them back." Please ask the queen and the concubine to inquire carefully. β
Mama Cui said, "Yes." β
King Shunjun was still unwilling on his face.
The prince asked in a deep voice: "The fifth brother wants to interrogate this matter in front of people?" β
King Shunjun hurriedly said: "It's all up to the prince's orders." β
The prince nodded, and said to the cuckoo again: "Go, don't come here today." β
The cuckoo hurriedly said, "Yes." β
Alas, the good bustle is gone again.
She turned to Jiu'er, gave him a reassuring smile, and said, "Brother Jiu'er...... General Lin, I'll go back and see my godmother. β
She also heard that Lin Dameng and his wife had entered Beijing.
Jiu'er smiled: "Oh, good! My mother must have brought a lot of delicious food. I miss my mother so much. β
At this moment, he smiled very cheerfully, which was completely different from the fierce and vicious appearance just now.
The women looked at him with strange expressions: Such a person, saying that he wants to eat his mother?
Now the two sides are separated and go their separate ways.
On the way back to the palace, all the women were puzzled when they talked about what had just happened; I also think that General Lin is really unexpectedly bold, what if he miscalculated, Qin Yan really drowned?
Du Juan was afraid that they would misunderstand Jiu'er's character, so he hurriedly said that Jiu'er had a hard time, and told him a lot about his childhood, increasing his glorious, cute and amiable image.
The girls laughed coquettishly when they heard it, but they didn't expect such a mighty general to be so naughty and funny when he was a child.
Halfway through, Gonggong Tang of Kunning Palace hurriedly brought someone to pick up the cuckoo.
It turned out that Queen Wang knew about Qin Yan's fall into the water, and she was not at ease and sent him.
When everyone returned to Kunning Palace, the queen first sent away all the foreign wives and nobles, and then took Du Juan and Cui Mama and others to Changchun Palace.
At that time, Qin Yan had already been diagnosed and treated by the imperial doctor and drank the medicine.
She knew that she couldn't avoid this hurdle, and sooner or later she would have to face it, so she tried hard to make a statement.
The result is the same as playing the piano. It's hard to justify yourself.
Thinking about it, come up with an idea:
in this world. For only the dead could not tell the difference, but kept secrets.
Now she's found another category: beasts don't tell. I can keep it a secret, too.
So, she hit the idea like the limelight.
She was scared into the water like the wind, that's a fact.
Distort the facts a little, and the false will be true.
Can Rufeng still confront her?
This is the safest thing, and it is much safer than saying another set of words.
Maybe, she can also implicate the cuckoo, who let her leave halfway.
So, when the queen and the cuckoo came. She said to the queen and Huang Guifei: She found that the forest was quiet and there was no one, so she asked Lianqin to go back and call Aunt Jiu and them, and she was waiting there. Who knew that the wind somehow came and sniffed at her. She was so frightened that she retreated to the lake. The wind roared at her, and she accidentally slipped into the water.
She was right, she couldn't tell the wind, so the queen couldn't verify her statement.
But the cuckoo was confused. Said: "The wind never does this. Unless you provoke it. β
Qin Yan's face was flushed, her breath was weak, and she smiled forcefully: "My sister also thinks it's strange." β
At this time, her heart was full of resentment towards the cuckoo.
Like the wind will scare her. It's just weird.
Also, that General Lin, she came back and heard about it. It's Cuckoo's brother-in-law.
Born into the royal family, she is well versed in intrigues. There's no way not to doubt the cuckoo.
What's more, in her heart, the county lord of Jing'an is the one who will repay her.
Zhan shisha eloped with Huang Yuan. She would rather not marry than let her have a good time; The niece and granddaughter of Anding Bofu had no choice but to marry Lin Chun, and she could refuse all the holy decrees; Uncle Thirteen provoked her, she kept making trouble, causing him to be imprisoned and not to mention, and the Hu family was beheaded all over the house; The eighth princess died more than how many people died, and there were too many lives on her hands!
At the Lan Gui meeting, she offended her, how could she let her go!
If you think like this in your heart, no matter how much you hide it in your eyes, it will inevitably come out.
The queen looked at her expression, and her heart sank-
Does this mean that the wind is driven by the cuckoo?
She was silent and asked gently: "The prince asked someone to check that place before, in addition to the footprints of the eighth girl, the girl who played the qin also left footprints. So, where were your lords and servants first? β
Qin Yan was shocked, and immediately said, "It's to play the piano, she wants to go for convenience." β
Cui Mama immediately said: "I asked Rongqin just now, but Rongqin didn't say this verse." β
Qin Yan looked at Lianqin and said, "What's so embarrassing to say?" β
The piano shook and said, "Just now...... Just now many men ......"
The queen was silent, staring at the piano and saying nothing, seeing her tremble.
Seeing this, Huang Guifei's eyes flashed, and she said to Qin Yan: "You have to think clearly, tell Queen SΓΉ what you see and pass by, so that we can analyze." The county lord is right: how can the wind be good against you? Don't say that the county lord doesn't believe it, even the main palace doesn't believe it. Don't miss anything, be a thorn in the head for nothing. β
She is reminding the queen that maybe someone will separate the crown prince and the fifth prince.
At this time, she didn't want her son to face the prince.
Qin Yan said: "Yes." β
I really thought about it.
The queen was noncommittal, and when she saw that she couldn't ask anything, she was about to leave.
It's good to go back and check it out.
Qin Yan suddenly said, "Granddaughter...... I remembered that the wind opened its mouth wide at me, and I was so frightened that my soul was gone, and I fell into the lake. At that time, I ...... Behold, there was meat in its mouth. It was just eating meat. β
The queen and Huang Guifei were shocked when they heard this.
If that were the case, there were people nearby at the time.
That's a big problem!
The cuckoo asked suspiciously: "You just said that it has been smelling and smelling on you, forcing you to retreat and retreat to the lake, why didn't it swallow a mouthful of meat for a long time?" β
Qin Yan was dumbfounded.
It turned out that she thought of this detail, and she also felt strange, and wanted to find out who drove Rufeng here, so she said it.
Who knows that he has told the truth, and contradicts the previous falsehood.
It's hard to come back now.
In the end, I had to say that I didn't know, or that I couldn't tell if I was bullied like the wind.
The queen stood up and said gently to Qin Yan: "Okay, let's investigate this matter slowly." Yan'er, you relax, just take good care of your body, otherwise it's not fun to get sick. β
Qin Yan was busy on the pillow and thanked him: "Thank you for the care of Queen Mother." β
The queen turned around, looked at the piano, and said, "Do you know what's wrong?" β
The voice was not harsh, but it was so frightened that the piano's face turned pale.
She kept prostrating and crying, "Slave and maid...... The slave knows it's wrong! Ask the queen for mercy! β
The queen said: "What do you want to do in this palace?" Let's go back and beg your lord to go. β
After speaking, he went to the ground without looking back under the support of the cuckoo.
Where did she wait until she went back to be punished by King Shunjun, and as soon as the queen left, Huang Guifei ordered her to kneel down and interrogate again.
Don't say that Qin Yan is making up lies here, and say that in the Ziyue Xuan on the island in the middle of the lake, there is a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere. Between the laughter of the banquet, King Shunjun finally learned that Lin Jiu'er would rather drown his daughter than touch his hands, so he was ashamed and angry, and his evil anger was unsettled!
He sent someone to Changchun Palace in the middle, and after inquiring about the truth about Qin Yan's falling into the water, he had a plan in his heart.
After the banquet was dispersed, the envoys of various countries were accompanied out of the palace by officials of the Ministry of Rites, and he found Emperor Zhengyuan. (To be continued......)
