Chapter Seventy-Seven: Disclosure
Tassel understood this, but still replied respectfully: "Every word is true." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
This was expected by Lin Qingwu.
Emperor Yongding was furious when she learned about this, and she could know about the torture to extract confessions.
The only surprise was that Xi Zhi actually appeared in Shaohua Palace and captured those assassins with his own hands.
It's just that the assassins were also well-trained, and they all committed suicide by taking poison, but Xi Zhi was quick to stop one of them, capture him alive, and somehow made him give up and commit suicide.
It's just that Lin Qingwu saw Xi Zhifang hearing Concubine Shu's name, and he was also guessing whether he would regret leaving such a disaster and helping her, but confessed his mother and uncle.
Things are going well.
Emperor Yongding confirmed the position of the main envoy of Concubine Shu, and Lin Qingwu kept blowing the wind in his ears, and he was furious, but he took into account the relationship between him and Concubine Shu. In addition, the Liang family has a very high status and many parties, so only the punishment of grounding Concubine Shugui was given, and the Liang family's three-year fortune was refuted.
It's the lightest punishment, but it's not surprising.
In the end, Lin Qingwu is just a powerless and powerless low-level woman, and she grew up in the Qinglou, her identity is already embarrassing, even if she is lucky to become the emperor's concubine, she still has no backer after all.
However, with this assassination as a foundation, things will come naturally in the future.
During Lin Qingwu's recuperation, Xi Zhi avoided her eyes and ears and came to see her a few times.
He didn't seem to mind that his biological mother was snubbed and blinded by the emperor because of Lin Qingwu, and his uncle was suspended because of her, but he took good care of Lin Qingwu.
"You don't blame me?" Lin Qingwu looked at Xi Zhi, who was arranging the pillow for her, and couldn't help but ask.
"It was you who almost lost your life, you don't blame me, I'm already grateful." Xi Zhi helped Lin Qingwu lean on the side of the bed, and twisted the quilt corner for her.
I don't know if it's because she's too careful, Lin Qingwu always feels that Xi Zhi has changed a lot.
Although it has long been rumored that the prince is smart and has the talent to govern the country, it is not said that he is so happy and angry, and the city is quite deep.
It was so deep that Lin Qingwu was a little flustered.
"About my mother... I'm sorry. Xi Zhi lowered his head and didn't look at Lin Qingwu, and said sullenly.
Lin Qingwu didn't speak, and she didn't know how to answer.
"I will protect you, Qingwu, you believe me, I must protect you." Xi Zhi suddenly raised his head and looked directly into Lin Qingwu's eyes, there seemed to be something shiny in his eyes.
At this moment, Lin Qingwu suddenly thought that he didn't care about anything, and left everything and flew away with the man in front of him.
But she can't, neither can he, that's their life.
"The emperor's health is just getting better, some political affairs are being handled, and he is about to come to Shaohua Palace, so you better leave quickly." Lin Qingwu sniffed and said with tears in her eyes.
Xi Zhi brought the medicine to the bedside for her, stood for a while and left.
Emperor Yongding really came soon, but he had an angry face, and as soon as he entered the door, he dropped the fold in his hand and shouted: "What a reason! ”
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Lin Qingwu glanced at the fold on the ground not far away, with the names of Chu Zhengqing and the ministers signed on it, and he knew eight or nine points in his heart, but he still asked knowingly.
"Today, I went to the early dynasty with my body, and the ministers exposed the evil deeds of Liang Chaoqun and Shuguifei's family of buying and selling officials, and they also killed people and killed people, ignoring the law of the country, and the evidence is there. Do they still have the emperor in their eyes? It's the other way around! Emperor Yongding was so angry that he coughed several times.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry." Lin Qingwu helped Emperor Yongding on the side of the bed smooth his back, and Emperor Yongding's face softened a little.
"First I wanted to kill my concubines, but now I am above the imperial power, I can't spare them!"
At this time, the Wu nobles and several concubines came to Shaohua Palace.
Lin Qingwu smiled invisibly and glanced at the nobleman.
Wu nobles were relieved, took a step forward, and knelt in front of Emperor Yongding.
"You're pregnant, what are you doing on your knees? Get up. Emperor Yongding's mood calmed down a little, and ordered Li Fusheng to help the nobles up.
"Your Majesty, the concubines have the courage to come to the court, and I implore the emperor to listen to the confessions of the concubines." Wu Guiren refused to get up and said firmly.
"What's the matter?" Emperor Yongding also came to be interested.
"About why the emperor's heirs withered." Wu Guiren looked directly at Emperor Yongding, she saw that Emperor Yongding's face changed when she heard this, and continued:
"The emperor doesn't know that Concubine Shu covers the sky with one hand in the harem, and she is cold-blooded and cruel. Any concubine who chooses to join the command of Concubine Shu must take the medicine given by Concubine Shu and will never be pregnant. And those who are unwilling to obey her will either die, or they will have been beaten openly and secretly when they just found out that they have children! ”
"What did you say?!" Emperor Yongding's eyes widened and he asked incredulously.
"Your Majesty, these concubines can all testify, and the concubines also found the palace maid of Wuhua Palace who participated in this matter, she was originally going to be killed by Concubine Shu and others, but she didn't expect to pretend to be dead and escape, and she is also willing to come out to testify against Concubine Shu's crimes!" The noble man kowtowed and replied loudly.
The palace maid walked out from behind, and it could be seen that she no longer lived in the palace. She knelt down tremblingly and said, "The slave was originally forced by Concubine Shu to send poison to the nobles of Zong, but after the matter was completed, Concubine Shu was not at ease and wanted to kill all the people involved in this matter to prevent future troubles." The slave maid pretended to be dead, and was thrown into the mass grave along with the bodies of other palace maids and eunuchs, and picked up a life. ”
"This palace maid was found by the concubine with great effort, and as soon as she heard that we were going to expose Concubine Shugui, she immediately agreed to come out and testify." Wu Guiren added.
The concubines behind her also spoke: "Your Majesty, Concubine Rong who fell into the water that year, the noble man who died of typhoid fever, Chu Jieyu who hanged herself, and many others were all killed by Concubine Shu!" Many of them were already pregnant with the emperor's heirs! Emperor! ”
Emperor Yongding was already so angry that his face was defeated, he trembled his lips, and kept repeating: "Bastard! Darn! ”
Lin Qingwu didn't speak, she kept silently helping Emperor Yongding pat his back and breathe beside her.
Wu Guiren is a discerning person, glanced at the two people beside the bed, and immediately said: "The concubine has also been poisoned by the concubine Shu Guifei repeatedly, and drank the bird's nest with chronic poison given by the concubine, thanks to the rescue of the concubine Niangniang, who saved the lives of the concubine and the child in her belly many times, and survived." The great kindness of the dancing concubine, the concubine is unforgettable! ”
It's just that what Wu Guiren said was a bit suspicious of forming a gang, and Lin Qingwu frowned when he heard it. Fortunately, Emperor Yongding was in a rage, and he didn't hear anything wrong, but he really felt that Lin Qingwu was a great good man who saved the world.
