Chapter 135: On the spot
Today in the library pavilion, after everyone fell asleep, Xiao Dezi thought that they were too tired from playing, so they fell asleep. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info He looked up at the sky outside, wondering how Xiao Yezi had gone to the thatched house for so long and hadn't come back. He thought that Biyue and the others were tired, and if Niangniang would be tired too, he wanted to go into the back room to see if the concubine Niangniang was also asleep, or if she had any orders. However, as soon as he stood up, his feet were somehow weak and he fainted.
He wasn't the murderer, because he also fainted.
Liu Chenxuan pointed at him and said in a deep voice: "You are not wronged, it just rained last night, look at your feet, there is still undried soil on your feet, and where Xiaoye fainted, there are indeed footprints, and the footprints are the same size as your shoes." What else do you have to say? ”
Xiao Dezi looked down at his feet, sure enough, there was undried soil, but what did this have to do with him? "Wronged, sir, wronged, Emperor, the slave has never been to the thatched house until now, and the slave doesn't know where this soil came from. After the girl woke up the minion, the minion's shoes were no longer on the minion's feet. ”
Xiao Yezi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, quietly swung his skirt back, covering his shoes, and suddenly shouted: "You still dare to say that you are wronged, Mu Gong was so good to you on a fair day, you are so ruthless." The concubine is not kind to us, why do you want to do this to us? ”
Xiao Dezi cried and shouted: "The slave is not, the slave is wronged, Xiao Yezi, don't you believe me either?" ”
Xiao Yezi looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and said: "You set fire to the murder, there are all the human and material evidence, who still believes you!" ”
"I, minion, minion, I ......"
The corners of Liu Chenxuan's good-looking mouth showed a wicked smile, looked at Xiao Yezi who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Xiao Yezi, how did you know that Xiao Dezi set fire to the murder?" ”
Xiao Yezi was stunned for a moment, looked up at Liu Chenxuan's inexplicable smile, and sighed in his heart, "No, isn't it what you just said, my lord?" You say you know who the murderer is! ”
"I just told the emperor that I knew who it was, but I didn't say who was the murderer who set the fire."
Xiao Yezi was a little at a loss, and Liu Chenxuan, who didn't know why, turned to him and said, "Didn't the adults just tell Xiao Dezi about the evidence of Xiao Dezi's crime and the process of committing the crime?" Isn't the murderer Xiao Dezi? ”
Liu Chenxuan shook his head and suddenly asked, "Xiao Yezi, did you really go to the thatched house today?" ”
"yes, the minion was beaten on the way back?"
"The section of the road from the library pavilion to the thatched house, I just walked, was all dirt. You said you were beaten, then you must have fallen to the ground, why are your clothes so clean, there is no dirt at all, and your shoes are also very clean. ”
Xiao Yezi lowered his head weakly, and said hesitantly: "Minion, the minion has been replaced." ”
Liu Chenxuan let out an "oh" and said, "The library is on fire, and the concubine Niangniang, who is pregnant with Liujia, is inside, you still have the heart to change your clothes!" And you didn't seem to say that just now, you said that as soon as you woke up, you saw smoke in the direction of the library, so you immediately ran over and saw that there was a fire there, and then you knocked on the door, and the concubine told you to go to the emperor. That's what you said, you won't forget it so quickly, right? ”
Xiao Yezi's heart was entangled, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he said, "No, the slave has not been changed." When the slave went to find the emperor, he was afraid of losing his honor in front of the holy driver, so he blanketed the dust while running. ”
Liu Chenxuan smiled: "Then do you want to say that the dirt on your shoes was also rubbed off when you were running?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes. That's it. Xiao Yezi hurriedly agreed.
With a "slap", a majestic voice came from behind the desk, "A bunch of nonsense, saying, how did you set fire to the murder, and who is the mastermind behind it?" Without making it clear, I'll throw you out to feed the dogs. ”
Xiao Yezi was so frightened that he threw himself on the ground, shouting, "Wronged, Emperor, the slave is not a murderer." ”
Liu Chenxuan shook his head and said, "You know in your heart whether you are a murderer or not, the emperor understands, and everyone who is listening also understands." Let me help you remember how you did the case! First of all, you light the illusion under the table, and the reason why you sit next to Xiao Dezi is because you can see the process of its ignition from your position, and when you see it ignite to a certain extent, you use the excuse to go to the thatched house. Actually, you didn't go to the thatched house, you were outside the pavilion all the time, watching them fall one by one. ”
Liu Chenxuan paced back and forth in the hall and continued: "If everyone is dead and you are still alive, then you are the most suspected of murder. So, in order to get rid of suspicion, you go to the road to the thatched house, which is where you said you were beaten, and make footprints of different shades. Everyone knows that the different shades of footprints indicate that this person must be a cripple, and there happens to be a cripple in the palace. But if you wear your own shoes, if you are discovered, you will lose all your efforts. The little cripple hasn't left the bathroom all day, so he won't hit you. So you borrowed a pair of shoes from Xiao Dezi's feet, and threw them back into the pavilion afterwards, they were all going to be burned anyway, and you didn't have to trouble helping him put them back on. From beginning to end, the fact that you were beaten is nothing, it is just your lie. Once you throw your shoes in, you lock the door and set it on fire from the outside. When you hear the sound of slamming the door inside, you know that the people inside are awake and they are not dead. So you deliberately delayed your time, and only when everyone in the palace noticed that there was a fire in the library did you knock on the door, pretending to be anxious. The concubine asked you to go to the emperor, so you really rushed to find the emperor. Right, Father-in-law Xiaoye? ”
Xiao Yezi raised his head, the initial nervousness had passed, but he calmed down and said: "But if that's the case, Phantom Shensan is by the side of the minion, why doesn't the minion faint, if Xiao Dezi doesn't stuff cotton in his nose, why does he always sneeze?" ”
"You've calculated the time, and when everyone feels sleepy, you'll know it's almost there, and you'll walk out of the library. Also, Xiao Dezi sneezed, not because he stuffed cotton in his nose, but because he was allergic to various aromas. Phantom Powder is made from various flower essences, and when burned, it will have a floral aroma. Also, do you breathe only through your nose? Can't breathe when your nose is plugged and your mouth is blocked? ”
Xiao Yezi was stunned and said, "Then what you just said, what you just said ......"
"That's right, what I just said is purposeful, I just want to see which person will be anxious and anxious to make a mistake." Liu Chenxuan walked to the front of the case, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the interrogation of the minister has been completed. "The rest is none of his business.
The emperor had a calm face and said in a cold voice: "Say, who is your mastermind?" Who instructed you to kill the concubine's mother and son? If you say, I will leave you dead. ”
Seeing that the matter had been revealed, Xiao Yezi no longer argued, and said: "No one instructed the slaves, they were all done by the slaves alone." ”
"Hmph, do you have such a good mind? If you don't say it, I'll take you and feed you to the dogs. ”
Xiao Yezi's whole body was shocked, and her face was pale, but she still said resolutely: "The whole thing was done by the slave alone, the slave hated the concubine Niangniang, every time she went to the library, she looked at the slave with a contemptuous look." We are like a dog, when the master is happy, he will reward you with a plate of fruit and pastry, and the slave hates this kind of person. ”
"Shut up." Xiang Rong immediately shouted, "Our mother is not such a person. Biyue hurriedly grabbed her, shook her head, and pointed to the emperor at the top. I want to understand, she is too impulsive, the emperor is here, which round will she speak!
Xiao Yezi turned his head, looked at Xiangrong, and sneered: "You are just one of her dogs, Ha Yangyang is proud......"
"Someone." Behind the desk, lest anyone stand up at some point, and said angrily: "Drag him out to feed the dogs." ”
A guard came in, and one person pulled Xiao Yezi out, far away, and Xiao Yezi's angry scolding could be heard, "You are all dogs, all dogs." ”
The emperor sat down weakly and said in a deep voice: "Chen Xuan, this case is over here!" ”
Liu Chenxuan bowed and clenched his fists and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." "Since the emperor said that it is over, then it will be over, and if he investigates it, it is not within the scope of his control.
The emperor's helpless voice came from above, "Stand down!" ”
When everyone had retreated, the emperor raised his head and looked at the sun that was gradually setting outside the hall, with endless sadness in his eyes, and he did not know where this sadness came from. A muffled voice came out, "Little Pony, the purpose." ”
Ma Gonggong, who had been standing aside for a long time, approached and asked, "Does the emperor really want to do this?" ”
"Moyu is right, I can't protect her. This is my harem, she is my woman, I can't protect my women and children in my own palace. No wonder Moyu chose him, even if she was lying in my arms, she still chose him. If it were me, I would choose this way. ”
Ma Gonggong didn't know what to say, the emperor had the supreme right, but this right may not be able to protect the people he wants to protect. I heard the emperor's leisurely voice coming, "Since there is always danger around her, let this danger stay away from her!" ”
In the Jade Immortal Palace.
Moyu had a dream and dreamed of her mother. The mother stood in the flames, smiled at her, and did not speak, just smiled. No matter how she called her, she didn't respond. After a while, the picture changed, and the mother stood in the clouds, like a bodhisattva who saved the world, looking at her compassionately, still smiling at her, not saying anything, just smiling quietly.
By the time she woke up, it was already the next morning. Tian'er came in with the medicine, and when she saw her wake up, she hurriedly walked over and said, "Thank God, Niangniang finally woke up." ”
Mo Yu propped up his upper body, looked at the sky outside, and asked, "What time is it?" ”
"It's just past the hour."
"It's rare for me to wake up so early, hehe."
Tian Er made a bitter face and said, "Niangniang has been sleeping since yesterday until now, where is it early." ”
It turned out that he had slept for so long, Moyu shook his head helplessly, and suddenly touched his stomach as if he thought of something. When I felt that my stomach was still bulging, my nervous heart was finally relieved, but fortunately, the child was still there. She knew that the child's father would be able to bless their mother and son with safety.
Seeing her like this, Tian'er couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, the prince is fine." However, this time there was fetal gas, and Imperial Doctor Zhang said that you have to go to bed for a few more days. ”
"As long as the child is okay, let me lie down for the rest of my life. By the way, what do you want to tolerate them? ”
Tian Er brought the medicine to Mo Yu and said, "They are fine, they just lost too much blood." I told them to sleep a little longer, and there was nothing going on in this temple anyway. ”
The stabbing of them yesterday was a last resort, and she was very reluctant to go, and that knife would leave a lifetime scar on their arms. After drinking the medicine, Moyu handed the bowl to Tian'er and asked, "Where is Manxue?" ”
"Yesterday, the Jade Immortal Palace was too busy, so I asked Concubine Shuniang to take her back to take care of her. Rest assured, Concubine Niangniang will definitely be able to take care of her. ”
Mo Yu nodded and said, "Manxue is at Concubine Shu's, so I am naturally relieved." After yesterday's incident, I was thinking, why don't I leave Manxue with Concubine Shu! If you follow me, you will only cause endless murder, and if this disaster affects her, then I might as well not save her in the first place! Besides, Concubine Shu is kind and kind, and if Manxue follows her, she will only enjoy inexhaustible blessings. ”
"Actually, the slave and maid did not object to this. After all, now that Niangniang has a child, it is difficult to even take care of herself, not to mention taking care of Manxue, just Niangniang, are you really willing? ”
"I've been raising her for more than half a year, and it's false to say that I'm willing to do it. I'm afraid that if I don't let go now, I won't be able to let go after a long time. When my child is born in the future, I can't guarantee that I will not be biased. I can only get a little love here, but it is better to get all the love from Concubine Shu. There is another reason, she doesn't know if she can keep the child's secret, in case she can't hold it, Manxue still has to endure hardships. It's better to put her in the concubine, anyway, she is still in this palace.
"I understand what the mother means. When is the lady going to tell the lady lady? ”
Mo Yu looked up at the top of the tent and said quietly: "Since the child is already there with her, there is no need to say it, it will make her uncomfortable." You tell the people in our palace not to pick up the children. After a long time, Concubine Shu will know what I mean. ”
Concubine Shu is a proud person, even if she has no children, she will not allow others to give her a child. The snow is in her hands, and she shouldn't take the initiative to send it back in a short time. After waiting for a while, seeing that no one from the Jade Immortal Palace came to pick it up, she may also know Moyu's intentions, and at that time, she already had a relationship with the child, and I am afraid that she will not return it.
Tian'er raised the quilt to Moyu and said, "Niangniang, the emperor made a decree last night. It is said that Concubine Shuyue Palace took the initiative to invite Ying to go to the meditation temple to fast and pray for blessings for the prosperity of the Zhou Kingdom and to welcome the arrival of the Empress of Zhou. Princess Jingde was handed over to Lian Jieyu to raise. Niangniang, you said that the ceremony is coming soon, so how can you make this will? ”
Mo Yu was still shocked in her heart, but she understood after a while. "The matter of the library pavilion is probably inseparable from Concubine De, the emperor should have no direct evidence to prove that Concubine De did it, or a husband and wife for a day, the emperor can't be ruthless after all, so he found such a reason to send Concubine De to a corner of the palace. Otherwise, the ceremony is imminent, and the four concubines of Guide Shuxian are indispensable that day, and Concubine De is the person in charge of everything. ”
Tian'er then understood, and said: "No wonder early in the morning, Concubine Shu went to the Queen Mother's Palace." Now that Concubine De is gone, the matter of the ceremony falls on the Queen Mother. ”
"Concubine De doesn't care about anything, Concubine Shu is a novice in managing the harem, won't this matter fall on the Queen Mother?" The Queen Mother is very comfortable with dealing with this kind of thing, effortlessly, and handy. Mo Yu lifted the quilt up a little and said, "You will go to the Moon Palace to help me bring a message in a while, and let the Yuan family stay in the capital!" As long as she goes to the nunnery and fasts for three days a month. ”
Tian'er didn't understand, "Did Niangniang just let her go?" ”
"I just had a dream that my mother was smiling at me. It was a tolerant, compassionate smile, and my mother was telling me to be merciful to everyone. Forgiving and forgiving, a person's hatred will only attract more hatred, as my mother's daughter, why can't I be merciful and tolerant of others, just for my child, accumulate some blessings! ”
"I'm going to pass the word for my mother." Tian Er said softly: "It is everyone's blessing to meet someone like Niangniang, but not everyone knows how to cherish this blessing." Concubine Xian Niangniang and Mrs. Ji may not thank you, when the time comes, Niangniang is not a person inside and out. ”
Mo Yu smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter, I only care about my children now." If she could accumulate a little blessing for this child with a tolerant heart, she would be willing to do it. Because the arrival of this child was caused by her sins, but she did not regret it. (To be continued.) )
