Chapter 242: The Cunning Prince
Li Han's sudden words of laughter, although they still sounded like a joke, but what was said in this smile shocked everyone present. Liqing on the hall frowned even more, looking at Lihan, speechless, but his eyes inquired. also knew that Liqing must be trying to inquire at this time, so Lihan didn't wait for Liqing to speak, but said with a smile.
"Do you still remember the lotus root powder that the younger brother brought into the palace last month to give to the imperial brother?" didn't Dao Ming but first inquired, seeing that Lihan asked like this, Liqing thought for a while and then said that he remembered this matter, since Liqing remembered this matter, it was much easier to say. Immediately laughed again, Li Han continued.
"The brother of the lotus root fan talked about it at that time, and it was from the minister's house, and it was right to say this, and it was not right to say it wrong. Although the taste of lotus root flour is crisp and sweet, it is a pity that there is one thing that is extremely inconvenient, that is, this lotus root flour cannot be left for a long time, otherwise it will lose its original crisp and sweet taste. The royal brother is also happy with the lotus root powder in the minister's brother's house, and the rise of that day is also the way, although the imperial brother did not take it to heart later, but the minister's brother remembered it for the imperial brother. Last month, I had been thinking about how to bring lotus root powder into the palace without losing its taste, but who knew that it was also the night of the thirteenth that I happened to meet the curtain. Although the curtain girl is very useless in the house, but the lotus root powder is very good, at that time, the younger brother also pulled her to taste the lotus root powder, and the belt was to make sure that the girl's craftsmanship was not unfamiliar, so she ordered her to make the lotus root powder for the younger brother. After all, it was carried directly by the palace, and only when it came to the imperial brother could it be ensured that the lotus root powder still had the best taste. ”
Li Huwei said that he had a private meeting with the curtain on the thirteenth of last month, but now Lihan said that the **** met with the curtain, and most of the curtains were with Lihan, how could this person meet the two at the same time? It was Li Huwei's remarks just now, which made people speculate.
The curtain was in the same place with Li Han on the thirteenth of last month, not what Li Han said, but after hearing his words, Qin Shujiu was clear and then said: "Your Majesty, the prince of the thirteenth Han of last month borrowed the curtain, and the concubine remembered this matter." ”
On the thirteenth of last month, whether the curtain was with Lihan or not, only they were clear in their hearts, and now they are willing to say whatever they want. It was also after Qin Shujiu greeted him, Li Huwei panicked in his heart, and hurriedly changed his words.
"No, yes, it's the minister's mistake, not the thirteenth of last month, but the tenth of the first month of last month!"
"The tenth day of last month?" After calling Li Huwei to change his mouth, Li Han was not in a hurry, but after repeating it, he asked: "On the tenth day of the first month of last month, it was a good day, and the moon is also bright, and it is excellent to enjoy the moon view." ”
It was also the words that fell Li Guard's immediate busyness: "The criminal is guilty, because the night was very good that day, so he invited the curtain to have a private meeting." The sinner knew that this matter was very evil, and he hoped that His Majesty would forgive him. After finishing the word, he knocked down again, and a muffled sound made people feel frightened. Li Huwei was anxious to beg for words, as if he wanted to solve Fang Cai's thirteenth mistake, but his heavy knock was exchanged for a smile from Li Han. I don't know why I suddenly lost my smile, Li Han turned around and faced Li Qing and then bowed, and Li Han said with a smile.
"The younger brother pleaded guilty again, and I hope that the imperial brother will not blame the younger brother." If you don't say anything, you just say such a strange tone, and anyone should be very suspicious in their hearts, and so is Liqing. Rin in the hall looked at Lihan and pleaded guilty, and after taking a closer look, Liqing said.
"Don't blame? Could it be that the ninth brother has concealed what disobedience I have done? "Since he is guilty, he should have committed a crime, so Li Han has not been a less offender, Li Qing asked smoothly, although he did not blame Li Han for something, but he also had to ask to understand what he meant by this. Today's holy question, Prince Han has to answer, that is, the words fell into Han and said.
"The younger brother invited me this time, but for the gaffe of the younger brother, he was blinded by the royal brother."
"Blinded by gaffes? But why? ”
"Isn't the younger brother the Taoist at the beginning of last month, and the October scene is excellent? But now that I think about it carefully, it was raining in the middle of the tenth night of the first month of last month, and the rain was continuous, not to mention admiring the moon, even if it was inconvenient to go out, oh yes, Li Huwei was also the tenth day of the first day of the Tao, and the moonlight was excellent? This rainy day is a wonderful moonlight? Could it be that Li Huwei remembered it wrongly, or did this king remember it wrong? ”
How could what the prince said be wrong? The fault can only be Li Huwei. It is extremely evil to make a mistake in the words of the saint once, but now it is a mistake again, again and again, but it is a loss of speech in front of the saint, which is a qiē of Li Huwei's words in this matter, and I am afraid that it will also arouse people's suspicions.
After thinking about it for a long time, I was afraid that I didn't expect that Lihan would enter the Yanying Hall on the way, so only this prince dared to laugh so unscrupulously in front of the saint. Lihan's play, looking at the boring things that seem to ignore the palace rules, but if you think about it carefully, you can see the hidden inside.
Li Han inquired, what Li Huwei said was very inconsistent, if what Li Huwei said was the truth. How could there be so many faults. This time, it seems that what Li Huwei said may have an implicit, and immediately Li Huwei also knew that he had accidentally fallen into the trap of Lihan, and now his face has long been bloodless.
What Lihan is thinking, how could Liqing not see it, but now it is not this brother who has no rules, but the Li guard who is kneeling in the hall. The preface and the afterword are all incompatible? This person is actually a truth, but what he means is to play Liqing? When the more he thought about it, the more he didn't like it, his face was already gloomy, and he looked at it with his eyes for a while, and Liqing suddenly asked in a deep voice.
"Wait for the last private meeting, whether it was the thirteenth of last month, or the tenth day of the first month of last month, or the ......" The words should be a meal, that is, after that word, he called Li Escort was even more shocked, and he didn't dare to breathe again when he fell into His Royal Highness, and Li Escort fell into misery under Liqing's scrutiny. Liqing suddenly paused like this, in order to see Li Huwei's reaction, and now this reaction that he was so afraid that he didn't dare to take a breath immediately caused Liqing's eyes to sink. After a pause, Liqing said.
"Or when?"
When? Liqing asked him when the last private meeting was around? The words of inquiry sounded like a chance to defend him, but in fact, there was already a hint of anger here. Liqing's inquiry already showed the hidden anger in his heart at this time, that is, who dared to squeak when he knelt down with His Highness. No one responded, and Liqing would not stop the intention of continuing the inquiry because of Li Huwei's dare not speak, and after a pause, Liqing continued to ask.
"What? I can't remember, but I want you to think about it, when? As soon as Liqing's words fell, the forbidden army who had just escorted Li Escort and the inner guards into the palace had already taken a step forward, and the sound of stepping on it knocked on Li Guard's heart like a heavy shield, making him pale. Liqing wants to help him think about it, it is definitely the help on the surface, how can Li Huwei not feel afraid.
Li Huwei never thought that things would be like this, even Empress Zheng couldn't think of it, and now seeing such a situation, Empress Zheng was also restless in her heart, and when she saluted in front of the saint, Empress Zheng said: "Your Majesty, this last month's incident was a few days ago, even if the matter is not clear to remember, it is often true." Now that this matter has also come to light, it has been ascertained according to all the facts, how can such a filthy and obscene affair between this palace maid and the guards defile His Majesty's ears. The palace maid guards fornication, but the concubine is purging and unchecked, and the concubine begged His Majesty to surrender the crime, but this kind of filthy and obscene thing really doesn't dare to annoy His Majesty, and I hope that His Majesty will allow the concubine to handle it. ”
Things are already a certainty, now there is more Lihan, things seem to have a rebellious trend, finally a good thing, Queen Zheng doesn't want to be ruined by Lihan at the last moment, and immediately asked Liqing to give her an order to hand over the affairs in the palace to her, she will inevitably use this to reorganize the harem and put an end to such filthy and obscene things. Empress Zheng was in a hurry, but Li Han was still waiting here, and after hearing Queen Zheng's words, Li Han said with a smile.
"Now that the investigation has come to light, the queen's sister-in-law owes a little bit of this, and the queen's sister-in-law feels that it is all clear at this time, but how can this king feel strange the more he listens to it. One will be on the thirteenth of the last month, and the tenth day of the first month of the last month, Li Huwei's words are not in line with the preface and the words are tight, and the king is really fascinated when he listens to it. ”
How can it be convincing? Lihan likes to hold on to these trivial matters the most, and now this matter involves the maids from his house, and he should be more concerned. After Empress Zheng heard his words, Bingshen said: "Do you remember to please on time, I'm afraid it's not a big deal, but what if it's really rainy on the tenth day of the first lunar month?" People who dare to violate even the palace rules, Prince Han feels that there is something they will not do. ”
The palace rules are strict, and those who have the courage to offend should no longer worry about anything, Queen Zheng's words also called Li Han clear, but after that clear response, Li Han turned to smile and said: "The queen's sister-in-law is the queen's sister-in-law, it is polite, but it's just ......"
"Just what?"
"It's just that if this king remembers correctly, isn't the tenth day of the first month of the month the day when Li Huwei is on an errand? It's not an errand in the palace, but it's a private meeting with the palace maid? I'm afraid this is not only a violation of the palace rules and severe punishment, but also a guard of the forbidden army, who has a good martial arts and is well versed in the terrain of the palace, but he broke into the palace privately on a non-duty day. What kind of sin is this? If this king is not mistaken, this is a great crime of rebellion, but it will punish the nine clans. ”
The forbidden army guards actually entered the palace privately on the day they were not on duty, and this matter can be convicted of conspiracy against the master, which is a first-class responsibility, and it is not an exaggeration to issue an edict to punish his nine clans. The first ten days are not Li Guard's errands, this matter is not Lihan alone, that is, the place where the servants in the palace have also made a record of all ten, as long as Liqing wants to check, he can check a qiē at any time.
If you only need your own life, it is not a pity, but now that Lihan has set up a set step by step to bring it to the circle, this crime is becoming more and more strict, and now even the old and young of the family are afraid of being implicated. The life of a family of old and young, what can be compared with the life of a family, and now Li Huwei is also involved in fear, and he has no way to respond.
If you continue to insist that you have an adulterous affair with Curtain Child, you will be rushing to Li Han's heart for Curtain Child, but I am afraid that this crime of punishing the Nine Clans will make this holy brother lead him to sit down without knowing it. Curtain, so he was framed by himself, but the person who wanted Curtain's life was also himself, he was just influenced by interests and blinded his conscience, so he was involved in it and harmed his fellow villagers.
Although interests can smoke people's hearts, but interests and clansmen cannot be placed on the same balance after all, Li Han's words are already a threat, and the safety of the clansmen is not guaranteed, Li Huwei can finally make up his mind.
The saint was silent, it was because the saint was quietly examining, and he already knew that this matter was not what he thought before, and after making up his mind, Li Huwei knocked down and said: "The guilty minister is guilty, and he deceived the saint and deceived the king, and I hope that His Majesty will be severely punished." A knock, a word behind, Li Huwei's suddenly adjusted words can make the current shape change instantly, directly silenced everyone in the hall, but on Liqing's side, he didn't show half of his anger because of Li Huwei's words, he still looked at it with his eyes in the morning, as if he had guessed that things might suddenly reverse like this, Liqing looked at it and then said.
"Blinded me? What deceived me? After the inquiry, Li Huwei said deeply: "It's a sinner, it's a sinner, because it's a fellow countryman, seeing that the curtain is now a celebrity around my concubine, so I want to ask her to say a few words in front of my concubine, so I want to find a better errand." Who knew that she was rejected by the curtain, that is, because she didn't care about half of her fellow villagers, so the criminal minister was resentful in his heart, pretended to steal her purse, and took the opportunity to stuff the half of the jade pendant into her sleeve and blame her. The sinner deserves death, the sinner is unforgivable, and he hopes that His Majesty will surrender the crime. ”
He also said that he and Curtain were in love with each other, and the fornication in the palace touched the palace rules, but now the words turned very quickly, and it directly became a request that Curtain Er was not angry and jealous, that is, the evil was born out of guts and wanted to harm her.
Whether Li Huwei has ever looked for himself because of the matter of the official, the curtain is the clearest, at this time, these words are obviously to protect the people behind the scenes, only by pulling all the sins on himself, then the people behind the command are safe, and his family is also safe. What kind of thoughts Li Huwei is playing, even the curtain can be seen, but now that he wants to protect himself, Li Huwei's words must be inseparable, and he is silent at the moment.
In order to seek a way to be promoted, he did such a hateful thing, Li Huwei could not escape heavy punishment, not to mention that he also deceived the saint, the criminal deceived the king, and it was a matter of losing his head, kneeling down like this, Li Huwei's life was gone. The crime of bullying the king must not be tolerated, that is, he fixed his eyes on the Li guard who knelt down and asked for the sin, and looked at it for a moment, and Liqing moved his eyes to the palace maid.
The palace maid is the witness of this fornication, and now that Li Huwei has knelt down like this, how can the palace maid hold the rhetoric, when Liqing's cold eyes swept down to her body, the palace maid was directly terrified.
The palace maid's heart was already terrified, and the Prince Han, who had always laughed the most about his pity and cherishing jade, somehow didn't have any pity today, and looked at the palace maid who was trembling, Li Han asked: "How many times does this Li Guard's words seem to match your testimony?" Is it Li Huwei who is lying again and trying to deceive His Majesty, or is it you, the palace maid? What did you see wrong? ”
The two are all different, the palace maid naturally did not dare to have anything to do with the deception of the saint for their own lives, when even if they knelt down and knocked hard, the palace maid begged and said: "The maid has had, the maid has had, that day, the maid just watched from a distance, just watched them sit on the pavilion." In fact, other than that, the maid next to him did not see it, and the maid begged for forgiveness. ”
Just saw the two of them sitting in the Wan Pavilion, there was no ambiguous trip, and they didn't see anything bad or moral, and the palace maid's words at this time were also a little unclear. The human and physical evidence is that even the people who fornicate are also clear and clear, but now things are suddenly turning, and there is confusion.
Li Guard's fornication with Curtain Er was deliberately framed by his hatred, and the palace maid also said that he didn't see it really that day, and a qiē was just a fabrication from her bottom, and Curtain Er and the guards fornicated with each other and filthy harem, and now it is not true.
Li Huwei harmed the palace maid for his private structure, ruined her innocence, and almost harmed the maid in the palace, Qin Shujiu naturally refused to spare him. This matter is really wronged by this matter now, and he has been wronged in this matter, and Liqing should compensate himself, so he gave Qin Shujiu the right to punish.
A little forbidden army guard, he didn't dare to harm her palace maid, but after all, he was on an errand for others, and since he did something, he had to pay the price for his stupidity. The person behind the plot, Qin Shujiu can't move, but this errand master, Qin Shujiu doesn't intend to spare it.
The crime of bending the law and framing others, and the crime of deceiving the king is even more unforgivable, and such a sinner should not be able to spare his life. As for the palace maid who deliberately framed the right and wrong, of course, he was not to be punished heavily, and it was also inevitable to be sent to the court prison to be punished.
Li Huwei opened his mouth and said the meaning of framing, even if Empress Zheng was unwilling in her heart, she couldn't say anything now. This matter has also been done so far, although Queen Zheng is upright and strict, but in this harem there is still more to pay attention to, after the grievances of the curtain matter are resolved, Liqing also said a few words to her.
is to order her to act more carefully in the future, and he doesn't want to see such an unjust thing today.
The Holy Lord's decree, Empress Zheng should be remembered, and she should pay attention everywhere in the future, and she will definitely not let anyone in the palace suffer unnecessary grievances.
Empress Zheng's remarks are equivalent to making her own palace slapped in the face, even if she thinks about it on her face, but she has it in her heart.
I'm afraid only she knows. (To be continued.) )
