Chapter 81: The Truth Revealed
A person who has been in the palace for a long time, even if it is just a small palace maid, can become sleek. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Smart people will not sacrifice their lives for the so-called eternity, especially in the palace where life is the most important goal. It's just a pity that this Avan didn't realize it.
In the world of love, there are those who die for you and you die for me.
Looking at the eyes of the group of people around him, Mo Yu said in a deep voice: "I guess that there should be a bigger mastermind behind you, and it is this mastermind who instructed you to do this series of things. Because in terms of motive for killing, that doesn't hold true for you. You have followed Concubine Ning since you were a child, and you know your master very well. Concubine Ning is not thin with you, and even such a high-grade jade ring can be rewarded to you, which shows her trust in you. But one day, your affairs were discovered by the mastermind, that is, the affairs of you and the guards were discovered, and someone else grabbed the handle, and this person used this handle to threaten you, if you don't do what he wants, you and the guard will be ruined and will not be able to die. Of course, this is just my conjecture, I have no evidence. ā
Mo Yu walked in front of the pile of gold, silver and jewelry, and said while fiddling: "You originally wanted to wait for the matter to be over, and you and that guard went away to fly away, and you didn't want that guard to be greedy for money and let you come back to steal Concubine Ning's relics, but in desperation, you can only do this, but this is a waste of time, Lord Liu sealed the Changde Palace, and you can't get out, so you have stayed until now." ā
Concubine Shu interjected: "Concubine Li means that the murderer of Concubine Ning is this palace maid named Afan?" ā
"That's right, the entire case was planned by the mastermind behind Afan. She took advantage of the relationship between Ah Fan and the guards, who were responsible for ventilating and reporting the news, and saw me coming back at the palace gate, so she hurriedly went to report Ah Fan, so Concubine Li's death was after me, which is why the time I returned to the palace and the time when Concubine Ning was killed was almost the same. ā
"Then where did Afan's poison come from?"
"Naturally, this mastermind has been prepared for a long time, Concubine Ning may not know until she dies that the palace maid she trusts the most wants her life all the time."
"Then why didn't you do it when you already had the poison in your hand?"
I'm afraid I'm waiting for her, the purpose of this murderer is to blame her. Mo Yu said: "Because we have to wait until the right time, that is, to find a substitute ghost." Then I'll talk about how Ah Fan killed Concubine Ning! The reason why Concubine Ning took the initiative to get up in the middle of the night and drink that cup of poisoned water was calculated by Afan. ā
Concubine De was puzzled and said, "Does this Concubine Ning drink water at night, can she also predict it?" Concubine Li, don't talk about it. ā
Mo Yu bowed her head slightly, and said: "Yes, because she put Huashan ginseng powder in the candle flame of Concubine Ning's dresser, this medicine is usually nothing, once it is burned with fire, it is emitted in the air, and people immediately have a dry mouth after inhaling it, and they want to drink water." That's why Concubine Ning had a dry mouth that night, and when she got up, she didn't even care about wearing shoes, so she hurriedly ran to the tea on the table and drank it as soon as she poured it. ā
Liu Chenxuan, who was on the side, added: "Empress Dowager, under Concubine Ning's couch, she did find a pair of shoes, and Concubine Ning did not have shoes on her feet at that time. ā
Concubine De asked again, "How do you know that the candle flame has the powder of Chinese ginseng?" ā
"The candle flame was mixed with Chinese ginseng, and the burning gas smoked to the window edge of the dresser, and the ant crawled there, and because it could not bear its medicinal properties, it died on the window edge. This is something that Lord Liu has seen just now, and the Queen Mother can also verify it again with the imperial doctor. ā
The Queen Mother said coldly: "You continue." ā
"Concubine Ning's dresser is facing a clearing in the garden, looking at a steep slope in the garden, you can see everything in the room clearly, Ah Fan is through that window, after seeing Concubine Ning drank the poisonous water that night, so he returned to Concubine Ning's room, and removed the candle flame and teacups and teapots under the pretext of closing the window, and then asked this guard to put the teacups and teapots and bottles filled with poison in my room at the right time, and the murder case can be successfully completed. That's the whole case. ā
The Queen Mother slammed a row of chairs, stood up, and said angrily: "Bold slaves, dare to murder their masters, it's simply hateful, come here, take them out, and correct the Fa on the spot." ā
Ah Fan and the guard cried out for help, crying out for mercy. Ah Fan even shouted the key problem, "Concubine Li, you have no evidence to prove that I did it......"
Indeed, in this murder, Moyu could not find evidence of Afan's crime, just based on the fact that she had an affair with the guards, it was said that she killed someone, which was not established, many things were still her guesses, and there was no substantive evidence. However, the queen mother, who has the most power in the field, said so, who dares to raise objections, and the emperor will not mention it, Liu Chenxuan was threatened, and he didn't dare to say anything if he wanted to. Everyone can only accept Moyu's conjecture.
To be precise, there are two groups of people in a case, one is the person who killed Concubine Ning, and the other is the Queen Mother and the Ji family, but their tacit understanding doesn't seem to be too compatible.
If He Sheng and Ah Gui sent by the Ji Mansion hadn't appeared, maybe she would still not have been able to get rid of the suspicion of murder. However, the Ji family did a disservice and revived the original period of death, and everyone's attention was naturally focused on the false testimony of those false witnesses, and they preconceived that Moyu was framed. When they hear too much of the fakes, they don't pay much attention to the loopholes in the truth.
The Queen Mother naturally didn't want Moyu to talk more, who knew that with her brain, she would turn out something that shouldn't be turned out, in case it turned over her head and made the emperor suspicious, how could she have to pay for the loss. Forget it, even if she has a big life this time, there is a way to deal with her next.
Since you can't kill her, what else can you do? The Queen Mother said in a deep voice: "Now that the truth has been revealed, it has proved that Concubine Li is not a murderer." That's it. But Concubine Li, you are still in the grounding period, and you can't take half a step out of the Jade Immortal Palace at will. ā
"Yes."
The emperor turned his head to the queen mother and said: "Queen Mother, I promised Concubine Li to let her go out of the palace to live for a while, she was supposed to leave a few days ago, but this trip was delayed, so, I thought, it is better to let her out of the palace after the Shangyuan Festival, after all, I personally promised her." ā
The Queen Mother wished that Moyu would leave the palace as soon as possible, so that Concubine Xian would have more opportunities, so she said: "The emperor has decided." It's just that the outside of the palace is not as good as the palace, but you should pay attention to safety. ā
"Thank you for your mother's generosity."
"Okay, the matter is over, leave the rest to the Criminal Department! After tossing all morning, the mourning family was also tired, so they went back to the palace first. ā
The emperor and the other two concubines also stood up and sent the queen mother out.
After the people left, the emperor walked up to Moyu, gently hugged her into his arms, and said, "Your surprise to me is getting bigger and bigger, Moyu, I love you more and more, what should I do?" ā
Holding on the emperor's shoulder, Mo Yu looked at the cold standing behind him, and his heart was full of mixed tastes. smiled: "Don't joke about the emperor, it's the queen mother who deliberately lets me go." ā
"I know, but I'm still glad that I have a wife like you in this life, it must be that I have accumulated good fortune in my previous life."
Mo Yu stretched out his arms and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, you don't say you're afraid, that's fake." If it weren't for the emperor's protection, I'm afraid I would have died several times, and I don't know, what would happen when I left the palace this time? ā
"Don't worry! I've already thought about it, so I'll let the night follow you. I'd like to see which one is so bold and reckless as to want your life over and over again. With him there, you don't have to be afraid. ā
"Your Majesty, I mean, just find a few guards with high martial arts, Lord Ye is a privy envoy, shouldering heavy burdens, heavy responsibilities, and usually busy with a lot of things, accompanying me as a woman to live in the deep mountains and forests, overkill, Lord Ye will definitely not be happy."
The emperor turned to look at Yetian behind him and said with a smile: "Yetian, aren't you happy?" ā
Ye Tian bowed down and said: "The minister didn't say that there is a free life to live, why not do it, besides, the girls around the mother are all little girls who have no master yet!" ā
"As much as you can be poor, don't even think about the girl next to Niangniang, your task is to ensure Niangniang's safety, in addition, find out who wants Mo'er's life three times and several times."
"Yes."
The emperor turned his head and said to Mo Yu, "Let's go!" I got tired and went up in the morning, so I went back and rested. Then he hugged her and walked outside the gate of the Changde Palace.
Mo Yu turned his head slightly, his eyes swept over the figure standing quietly behind him, and his heart should not be happy or heavy. Where are you going back this time, and is it still the same mood as before? Can their relationship still be the same as before?
The Mercy Garden of Kifu.
The night is already dark, and the Jifu is already brightly lit. The masters of the Ji Mansion gathered in the Compassion Garden, and at a glance, they knew that they were discussing important matters.
Ji Gangyang said: "Mo Yu is too smart, I originally thought that this would justifiably put her in prison, but I didn't expect her to see through it, and she refuted it in court, forcing the Queen Mother to give up this chess piece." ā
The old lady sighed and said quietly: "We chose the wrong person at the beginning, if it was Moyu who was chosen at the beginning, perhaps, she is now the queen, and she will not make so many troubles." ā
Yuan immediately said: "She is an illegitimate child, how can she compare with Jade." The back seat belongs to my family's jadeite, and no one is allowed to take it away. ā
"You're enough!" The old lady said angrily: "If it weren't for you, would Mo Yu be able to turn against the Ji family?" You still have to think about where you will stay after a month. ā
Ji Boyuan interjected: "Old lady, does my mother have to leave the house?" Concubine Li may not have that much ability. The emperor is spoiling her on the surface, but you see, since the emperor already knows that we did the assassination of Moyu last time, but he doesn't say a word, perhaps, the emperor is still towards the Ji family. ā
"How true or false Moyu's words are, we don't know. But with her character, the ancestral hall dares to burn, and there is nothing she can't do. ā
Yuan thought for a moment and proposed, "Isn't the relationship between Zhongting and Concubine Li quite good?" It's better to let him enter the palace to explore the truth and reality. ā
Ji Gangyang then remembered that there was one less person in this room, so he asked, "What about Ting'er?" ā
"Just now I sent someone to spread the word, saying that I want to read books carefully and prepare for scientific examinations, and I don't have time to pay attention to our mess." Ji Boyuan replied.
The old lady nodded and said, "He actually wants to eat by his own efforts, so let him be!" It is estimated that Ting'er will not be able to ask anything substantive when she enters the palace, and Concubine Li's vigilance is too high. ā
"So what should we do next?" Ji Gangyang asked.
"Since the emperor has paid attention to us, don't take any more action recently." Then he said to the Yuan family: "Tomorrow, you go into the palace to see Jade, let Jade go to the Queen Mother, explain to her our current situation, and the next thing depends on how the Queen Mother handles it." Concubine Li will leave the palace tomorrow to live in Wuyan Mountain, which is a good opportunity. ā
"But when Concubine Li goes to Wuyan Mountain, there will definitely be masters around to protect her, and it is not easy to start."
"No matter how difficult it is, it's easier than in the palace, and it's more convenient to perform. She knows about us, she can't stay, who knows that one day her head is hot, she blows a pillow wind for the emperor, and takes the life of our Ji family. Leave this matter to the Queen Mother! We don't meddle. ā
"Yes, Mother."
At the same time, it was on the first floor of the night house on Nanhua Street.
Ye Tian was opening the door and entering, and suddenly felt a different atmosphere in the room. So the alarm bell rang immediately, and although the room was very bright, there was still no superfluous figure to be seen. Yetian walked in step by step, and under a wall in the middle of the room, he saw a superfluous figure.
The long sword rested on her shoulder, near her neck, and a cold voice came, "Do you know that there is a rule in my night mansion, those who trespass on the first floor will die." ā
The owner of the figure said leisurely: "I know. Dignified and elegant, light and dusty, a good woman who does not eat fireworks. The resentful spirit really admired Childe, and while interpreting her lovesickness at her portrait, he pushed her to the cusp. Being loved by a man like you, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse? ā
"All I know is that your next misfortune is not a blessing." As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword was deflected, and it slashed towards Liu Yanling's neck, Liu Yanling stole one side and one low, dodged the arrow, and after driving a few meters away, he said, "Wait." ā
Ye Tian said coldly: "I allow you to leave your last words before you die." ā
"The lord is already impatient, when did you kill Emperor Zhou?"
"Hehe, I already had a plan, but as soon as you broke in like this, I changed my mind, if you want to kill him, find a way yourself."
"Yetian, do you think that we will not be able to do it without you in the Northern Han? You just used some means to let your woman drive a wedge between the queen mother and the emperor, so as to sit on the fisherman. I thought you were so clever, but that's it. ā
Ye Tian waved his sword in his hand and said coldly: "Since you don't look down on my means, then our cooperation will end here, go back and tell your lord that it is you who want to break off the cooperation, and it has nothing to do with me." Also, you remember, from now on, you will always live in the days of being hunted down. Get lost. ā
Liu Yanling said angrily: "Yetian, you dare." ā
"Hmph. I don't want anything else to stain here, so, you'd better get out. ā
"Hmph." Liu Yanling was speechless, and left the first floor with light skills. Yetian walked outside the door and said to the empty courtyard: "From now on, hunt down and kill Liu Yanling." Whoever takes her head will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold. ā
There was nothing in the courtyard, but something seemed to have moved again.
