Chapter 196: In-depth Investigation

Even if there was no possibility of a mistake in the matter back then, the look on the pavilion at that moment seemed to make Concubine Lide uneasy in her heart, and she was even more suspicious of Qin Shujiu's identity.

After all, Qin Shujiu is not a child raised in Kyoto, and he only returned to Kyoto a few months before the show, such a person with an unclear identity, even if he really hides an unseen identity, it is not impossible.

Because she was always suspicious of Qin Shujiu in her heart, Concubine Lide ordered Ye Wei to secretly investigate Qin Shujiu, that is, to dig out all the qiē before she entered the palace, but to find out whether she was related to the rebel clan.

Ye Wei also acted properly and beautifully, as soon as Concubine De's life was born, he spread the word outside, and the people outside were so angry that Qin Shujiu was strictly investigated. It's okay that this hasn't been strictly investigated, but there are a lot of suspicious points when it is found.

Qin Shujiu is Qin Tianhao's second daughter, this is a well-known fact in the palace, but in addition to this so-called fact, there is no conclusive evidence. In addition to the unanimous words of the Qin Mansion, Concubine Niangniang is the second daughter of Qin Taiwei, who was sent to the nunnery by Taiwei to practice since she was a child, and no one among the bureaucrats who were officials in the same dynasty had heard of these two young ladies.

A child who has never been known about suddenly returned to Kyoto one day, and also entered the palace draft in place of the injured eldest sister? This fact is too weird, because he feels that there must be something hidden in this matter, Ye Wei ordered people outside the palace to follow these weirdness after hearing about it.

Since Qin Shujiu was able to enter the draft, his identity on this face should be fully done, even if he feels that there is any doubt in it, he may not be able to find any confusion. Starting from Qin Shujiu's identity, there are too few things that can be explored, but Ye Wei still found a breakthrough point.

Kodoan.

Qin Shujiu asked Qin Tianhao to send him to the ancient Dao Nunnery for meditation since he was a child, even if there were not too many things related to Qin Shujiu in Kyoto, but the Gu Dao Nunnery was a place where she had been raised since she was a child, and she should always be able to find something. Even though the ancient Dao Nunnery is now in ruins, and the sisters-in-law who practiced in the nunnery back then have all died in the nameless fire of the year, Ye Wei still sent someone to go there to investigate carefully, and even the slightest clue should not be missed.

This detailed investigation really made Ye Wei find a person, and a fire completely burned the ancient road nunnery into ruins that year. The sisters-in-law who practiced in the nunnery all died in the fire without exception, and just when everyone felt that it was absolutely impossible to leave a living mouth under the fire, they actually found a person in the village near the ancient road hermitage.

It was a sister-in-law who had returned to the world, and now she was married. Before returning to the world, he practiced in the ancient road nunnery, because he fell in love with the woodcutter in the village, so he abandoned Buddhism and turned into the world.

The matter of the ancient Dao Nunnery was also thoroughly investigated, and in the end, they were asked to find the sister-in-law, because she was a person who had something to do with the Gu Dao Nunnery. Those people brought this sister-in-law into the palace and handed it over to Ye Wei for interrogation.

On the top of the hall, the concubine was sitting, and the sister-in-law knelt in the hall and trembled, because she was afraid of the majesty of Concubine De, so she didn't dare to raise her head, but the whole person was stiff and fell to the ground, and she didn't dare to breathe out half a breath.

The person His Royal Highness knelt down to was the person Ye Wei had found, and now he was the only one who was still related to the Ancient Dao Nunnery. When Ye Wei said that he had found someone who was still alive in the ancient Dao Nunnery, Concubine Lide had an indescribable strange feeling in her heart. She couldn't tell what it was like, but she felt a strange swelling in her heart. I was very happy, but I felt that a breath of uncertainty was blocked in my heart.

The strange feeling of a completely different kind of chakra clung to her chest, and for a moment, she even felt like she was almost out of breath. Sitting in the hall silently, she looked at the kneeling girl with such dignified eyes, and after a careful look, Concubine Lide said.

"Look up."

After this voice, her bones trembled violently, she raised her head leisurely with a trembling body, and her sister-in-law said in a trembling voice: "Grass people, grass people meet Niangniang." How could such a sister-in-law, who was born in a remote mountain village all the year round, be able to meet Concubine De of the harem, this reply was already so frightened that her courage was about to break, especially when she looked up to meet the frowning eyes of Concubine Lide. This sister-in-law was even more frightened, and her face turned white.

The sister-in-law's panic, Concubine Lide naturally knew it, but she didn't have the leisure to wait for this sister-in-law to settle her sex, that is, after a cold sweep. Concubine Lide asked, "Are you the sister-in-law of the ancient Dao Nunnery in the past?" "Asked out loud, Concubine Lide personally interrogated, but because she was too frightened, this sister-in-law couldn't answer immediately, so she had a leisurely meal in exchange for Ye Wei. Standing beside Concubine Lide and staring at her sister-in-law coldly, Ye Wei shouted, "Bold." When the mother heard your words, she dared not answer, how many heads do you dare to be presumptuous here? ”

It was such a loud shout that made the sister-in-law frightened, and immediately knelt down and responded: "Yu, Yu Niangniang, grass people, grass people were originally the sister-in-law of the ancient Taoist nunnery. ”

"Hara? And now? ”

"It's still vulgar now."

"Vulgar?" After smelling her sister-in-law's reply, Concubine Lide replied and then glanced at Ye Wei with side eyes, seeing that her mother glanced at herself, Ye Wei hurriedly responded: "Niangniang, this sister-in-law has been vulgar ten years ago, and it is rumored that she is married to a woodcutter in a village and mountain next to the ancient road nunnery. ”

"Ten years ago?" After hearing Ye Wei's return, Concubine Lide keenly captured the key point, straightened her body at the moment, and then moved to look at Ye Wei, and after looking at the confidant who bowed to her, Concubine Lide asked: "Has Concubine Li been in the palace for ten years?" As soon as the words fell, Ye Wei replied: "If you go back to Niangniang, Concubine Yao has been in the palace for six or seven years now, and if you count it, she can be regarded as an old man in the palace." ”

"Six or seven years, so when this sister-in-law left the ancient road nunnery, the concubine should still be in the nunnery, by the way, the palace remembers that the concubine was sent to the ancient road nunnery by Qin Taiwei since she was a child, but everyone was raised in the ancient road nunnery before returning to Beijing?" After the inquiry, Ye Wei immediately replied: "The minister has found out that the concubine was sent to the ancient road nunnery in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, and the Kyoto where Wanhe returned in the thirteenth year was also fourteen years after the ancient road nunnery. I didn't go back to Kyoto until three months before the audition, and ten years ago, my concubine was still in the hermitage. ”

"In the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, the Tilt Mansion was still there."

In the twenty-seventh year of Wanli, when the first emperor was still on the throne, that year, with the help of the court and the strong support of the speech, Liqing finally won the high power and ascended to the throne of power. The twenty-seventh year of Wanli is also the year of Wanhe, but it is also the first year of the change of dynasty, but a terrible thing happened in the court.

The first hero of the court, when the court master was also a hussar general, the family was wiped out.

Even if that incident has been for such a long time, Concubine Lide still remembers Qingming in her heart, when Qin Shujiu entered the nunnery, it was the heyday of the Tan clan, and it stands to reason that Qin Shujiu should have nothing to do with the anti-party. But if this matter is not inquired about, the slightest doubt in Concubine Lide's heart really can't be dispelled, so she pauses and thinks for a moment. Concubine Lide's eyes had moved from Ye Wei to her sister-in-law. Still with a calm look in her eyes, her face was cloudy, and Concubine Lide asked.

"Ten years ago, you were still vulgar, so when did you enter the ancient Dao Nunnery to practice?"

"Back to the mother's words. The grass people grew up in the nunnery since childhood, when there was a famine in the village, they followed their parents together, and their parents starved to death when they were very young. ”

"Oh! Case. Have you figured out the matter of the ancient Dao'an? He said in a quiet voice, that is, after these words, his voice also sank to the bottom, and his eyes stared at his sister-in-law like hooked eagle eyes, and Concubine Lide asked: "In this case, then you should know when Concubine Miao entered the Ancient Dao Nunnery, and what she has always done in the Ancient Dao Nunnery." ”

This sister-in-law looked young and not young, thinking that there should be more than thirty, if it was really as she said, she was rescued by the sister-in-law of Gudao'an in that nunnery since she was a child, and she should know it when Qin Shujiu entered the nunnery to foster Qingxiu. Concubine Lide inquired about this well-known rhetoric in the court, who knew that this inquiry had just fallen. The sister-in-law was full of doubts, and she didn't know what Concubine De meant, and the sister-in-law said sincerely.

"Niangniang, what are you asking? How could our little broken nunnery ever live with a mother. Concubine De's words were really shocking, and at the moment the sister-in-law was full of suspicion and thought that she had heard it wrong, this anti-suspicious words had just fallen behind in exchange for Ye Wei's reprimand, and angrily scolded the sister-in-law for daring to question Concubine De's mother, it was a reprimand that made this sister-in-law so shocked that her heart was in her throat, Ye Wei said.

"My Lady Concubine is the second daughter of today's Qin Taiwei. At that time, the concubine Niangniang was too light to feed after the mother's fetus came out, and a leper monk said that the mother had to be sent to the nunnery to cultivate in order to be raised. Because he believed in the words of the leper monk, Qin Taiwei sent the young concubine Niangniang to the nunnery, and that was raised for more than ten years. Do you remember that? After the inquiry, there was a pause, seeing that the sister-in-law still showed fear and suspicion on her face, Ye Wei said in detail: "Today, Taiwei Qin is the servant of the criminal department back then, and the name of the concubine is called Qin Shujiu, do you remember." ”

Ye Wei's words were already followed, and even Qin Shujiu's name was also revealed. It's just that such a detailed exchange is the sister-in-law's response, that is, she got up and shook her head, and the sister-in-law said: "Niangniang, the grass people really can't remember, the maiden name of this concubine Niangniang grass people really haven't heard of it, think about it, there should be no such name in the nunnery." ”

The last words were a little lighter, and she was not very sure of her appearance, so suspicious. Such a suspicious reply made Concubine Lide angry, and she was now hit hard. This remake scared my sister-in-law again, and I was busy kneeling down again, but Ye Wei, who was waiting on the side, glared angrily and shouted: "Bold, I dare to say that I have never heard of the name of my concubine in the nunnery, and this concubine is raised in your nunnery." You haven't heard of it, but it means that the concubine lies and deceives His Majesty, which is the crime of slandering and deceiving the king, and the felony of punishing the nine clans. ”

This sister-in-law is an ordinary grass people, even if she is still vulgarly married, she is also a village peasant woman who does her duty, how can she afford such a scare, after Ye Wei reprimanded like that, her courage was almost frightened, and her face was even more miserable than half of her blood, and she was trembling when she lay down there, and her sister-in-law said fearfully: "Niangniang, even if you borrow a thousand courage from the grass people, the grass people don't dare to hide it from you, the grass people have really never heard of the name of the concubine in the nunnery, and the people who practice in the nunnery have their own Dharma names, Even if the concubine really cultivated in our nunnery, it would be impossible for her to still call her boudoir name. Besides, we have never been in the temple of the nunnery, and no official lady has ever been in it, so how can there be a mother. ”

was busy kneeling and shouting grievances, and the sister-in-law also told everything she knew, but it was such an urgent request that Concubine Lide moved, straightened up and leaned a little towards the place where her sister-in-law knelt, and Concubine Lide asked in a suppressed voice: "You just said that you have never seen the official lady in the nunnery?" ”

"Yes, Niangniang, although the name of our nunnery sounds good, but in fact it is a broken nunnery, and there are a total of twenty or thirty sisters-in-law in it. As soon as she said this, Ye Wei was asked to reprimand her, scolding her for losing her manners in front of the palace and saying such filthy words in front of Concubine De. This sister-in-law is a mountain village girl, how can there be any etiquette, it is common to say such vulgar words. It was because of Ye Wei's angry rebuke of her sister-in-law's words that Concubine Lide immediately glared at him and motioned not to talk too much, and then looked at her sister-in-law and said.

"Go on."

With Concubine De's support, the sister-in-law was no longer afraid of Ye Wei's angry reprimand, and continued: "There are only a few people in our temple, and on weekdays, we rely on some people in the surrounding villages to worship the Buddha for relief, and there is nothing else. The nunnery is full of people who are as hard-working as the grass people, either they are forced to leave home by famine, or something happens to the family, and after the grass people enter the nunnery, there are indeed one or two people who have entered the nunnery, but those are all escaping from the famine and have no way to run into the nunnery as a sister-in-law, as for the daughter of the housekeeper, I really haven't heard of it. If there really is a housekeeper Miss Qianjin who comes to our dilapidated nunnery to clean up, then her housekeeper's father will have to help our nunnery even for the sake of his daughter, and he will not let us eat gruel and wild vegetable steamed buns for three meals a day. Niangniang, it's not that the grass people are talking about you here, but our ancient road nunnery is really not a place for individuals to go, this is born to the father and mother, who may send the girl to our broken ravine in the broken nunnery, even if the eight characters are really light, they can only be sent to the nunnery to raise, then they have to send those better nunnery. ”

My sister-in-law has also lived in the Gudao Nunnery for a long time, she really hasn't heard of the daughter of a high-ranking official in the nunnery, at least she has never heard of it in the years she has been in the nunnery. Gu Dao'an's life was really hard, if it weren't for the fact that the nunnery was really defeated, she wouldn't have returned the vulgar and finally ran away with a woodcutter.

If my sister-in-law's words fall into the ears of others, it must be amazing, after all, her meaning is clear, Qin Shujiu has not been raised in Gudao'an since childhood, and it is very likely that she is not Qin Tianhao's second daughter. Although there was a little suspicion in her heart, but when she really found someone to ask Qingming, Concubine Lide was still stunned for a while, so she sat on the concubine couch and locked her eyebrows in contemplation, and Concubine Lide looked at Ye Wei beside her and asked.

"What you say this sister-in-law is credible." After the voice inquiry, Ye Wei responded: "Niangniang, this girl is a mountain village woman, and she doesn't dare to deceive Niangniang if she wants to. ”

"If it is credible, then Qin Shujiu is not Qin Tianhao's daughter, then she ......"

"I don't know these ministers, but that Qin Taiwei, according to what the ministers see, is not necessarily a righteous master. If there is no one in the palace in the palace, I am afraid it will be difficult to climb up. With a salute, although Ye Wei's words were light, the words he said were also straightforward, which made Concubine Lide's heart calm. Just nodded in response after thinking in his heart, Concubine Lide suddenly smiled coldly, and then said.

"Yes, if there are no people in this palace, how can you climb up. If you can't enter this palace, how can you stand on a high position and trample on everyone. (To be continued.) )
