Chapter 81: That's it
() The cuttlefish persuaded meaningfully, but his voice did not decrease harshly, "Life is your own, why bother, for the sake of Concubine Xi and Gu Changzai, I plan to take the lives of you and your family, you really don't have a long brain, and you deserve to die." ”
repeatedly threatened with his life, and it really worked, people are afraid of death, especially a cowardly and spineless person like Caiyun.
Caiyun's face was a little bloody, she suddenly got up from the ground, hugged the cuttlefish's thigh tightly, and begged while trembling, "Su Chang is here, the slave doesn't want to die, the slave doesn't want to die, please, all the mistakes are the slave's fault, as long as you spare the slave's life, the slave is willing to make you a cow and a horse." ”
"You don't have to be a cow or a horse, as long as you are honest and obedient, you can answer whatever you ask, and I will naturally not be too embarrassed for you." The cuttlefish broke the hands that were tightly attached to his legs and said coldly, "On the contrary, if you dare to play tricks with me, I will not show mercy anymore." ”
She sighed in her heart, Caiyun is really a cheap bone, she refuses to listen to her good words, she has to be scolded and threatened to work, she really looks down on her in her heart.
Now, Caiyun had no choice, she begged with tears, "As long as you are willing to let go of the slave maid, the slave and maid will never play tricks." ”
The cuttlefish sat back on the chair and asked, "You tell me first how Gu Xiaochuan died, whether Gu Chang was harmed, and what happened to the handkerchief, quickly explain it clearly." ”
Caiyun didn't dare not answer, "You're right, Gu Xiaochuan was indeed killed by Gu Changzai, not really committed suicide, but ...... was strangled to death by Gu Changzai, and in order to frame you, she wanted to die without proof, so she made this decision. As for the silk handkerchief, the slave and maid don't know, they really don't know, Gu Changzai won't tell the slave and maid everything, and the slave and maid don't dare to ask more. ”
Look at her honest and terrified look. Presumably she didn't dare to lie anymore, the cuttlefish believed her for the time being, but she was sad for Xiaochuan in her heart, and her eyebrows and eyes were no longer so sharp. With a sad look.
After a moment, the cuttlefish recovered from her grief, she raised her teacup and drank two large sips of herbal tea, and continued to ask, "I'll ask you again." Do you know a palace maid named Xianglan? I heard that she died of tuberculosis not long ago, but the cause of death is strange, you tell me the truth, how did she die? ”
As soon as she heard Xianglan's name, Caiyun's face immediately froze, and she hesitated for a moment, hesitating and not answering.
"What? You won't say? Or are you going to make up a lie? The cuttlefish narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
Caiyun gritted her teeth, so she had to bite the bullet and tell the truth, "The slave doesn't dare to lie. This pandan is a palace maid in Zhongcui Palace, and of course the slave maid knows it. Once, Xianglan misheard Gu Chang talking to Guo Guiren, and Gu Chang was afraid that she would leak out, so she ...... So he sent for her to be thrown into the well, and she was never fished out again. ”
After hearing this, the cuttlefish frowned, "Throw it into the well?" Blame had to let hearts go over to collect the body, so it was. Do you know which palace person Gu Changzai sent to do this unconscionable thing. ”
Caiyun was a little weak-hearted, and she stammered, "If you are always there." Be...... It's a slave...... To do it. ”
The cuttlefish turned its face away in disgust, unwilling to look at Caiyun again.
Not seeing the cuttlefish's expression, it made Caiyun even more panicked, she bent forward and said cautiously, "Su Chang is here." The slave and maid are really telling the truth, and they know everything and say everything, so you can let the slave and maid go. ”
"Spare you? Yes, but there is another condition, you have to go to Yongshou Palace with me, and repeat what you just said in front of the queen. There was no unmistakable implication in the tone.
The cuttlefish wants to take advantage of this good opportunity to bring down the Gu family in one fell swoop and avenge Xiaochuan for himself.
Caiyun was immediately dumbfounded, "That will hurt Gu Changzai, the slave doesn't dare, Gu Changzai's powerful slave knows that she won't let the slave go, please, don't toss the slave anymore......"
The cuttlefish got up and called Xiao Yuezi and Shungui in, and after they came in, they took out a rope and tied Caiyun up without saying a word, and tied it tightly.
The cuttlefish looked at Caiyun, who was crying and begging, and said slowly, word by word, "She won't let you go?" Then I'm going to let you go! Gu Chang is hurting me badly, I will never let her be arrogant in front of me, if you want to bury her, I will naturally be happy, anyway, your nest of snakes and rats is not a good thing. Of course, if you are willing to know each other and tell the truth obediently in front of the queen, I can also spare your life. ”
After that, the cuttlefish picked up a rag and blocked Caiyun's mouth, so that she could no longer talk nonsense, and could only hum in a muffled voice.
Shungui and Xiao Yuezi held Caiyun and followed behind the cuttlefish, walking in the direction of Yongshou Palace.
On the way, Shungui knelt in Caiyun's ear and said, "If you are afraid that Gu Changzai will retaliate, then I will give you a trick, and in front of the queen mother for a while, tell all the bad things that Gu Changzai is doing, and say that Gu Changzai is capital crime can be avoided and life crime cannot be escaped, even if she wants to, she has no ability to retaliate against you anymore, do you say this is the reason." ”
……
As soon as they arrived at Yongshou Palace, the eunuch at the door saw this posture and didn't even ask, and hurriedly let the cuttlefish and them in. If it were normal, I would have to go in and report it first.
When the queen saw the menacing cuttlefish and the colorful clouds with a distorted face behind her, she couldn't figure out what was going on.
After the cuttlefish explained the intention and repeated all the words of Caiyun, the queen's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly asked someone to take out the rag in Caiyun's mouth.
She asked anxiously, "Caiyun, what Su Chang is saying is the truth?" Gu Changzai really lost his conscience so much, harmed Gu Xiaochuan, and harmed the palace maid Xianglan? ”
Caiyun hung his head weakly and said hoarsely, "Yes, it's all true, Xianglan's body is still in the well in the backyard of Zhongcui Palace." ”
In order to survive, Caiyun had to turn her back on her master, Gu Changzai often shouted at her, embarrassed in every way, she was thinking, if Gu Changzai was really guilty because of this, she would be able to free herself from the sea of suffering in Yiyuan Palace.
A trace of coldness flashed in the cuttlefish's eyes, and she said secretly, no matter how good the Gu family's background is, this time it will not save her, the wicked have their own evil retribution, and it is all retribution!
"Come on, go to Zhong Cui Palace to find Gu Changzai and confront Caiyun! Go to the well in the backyard of Zhongcui Palace and fish out Xianglan's body! The queen commanded in a loud voice.
Soon, Hui Jin took a group of palace people to Zhong Cui Palace in a hurry.
The queen couldn't hide her tiredness, and sat on her seat tiredly, the things in the harem in the past two days made her anxious, first Lan Guiren's miscarriage, and Gu Chang's murder, which were all tricky matters.
Her health is already not good, and with such a toss, she is even more sick. (To be continued.) )
