Chapter 197: Sticking to the Officials
Walking on the way back to Yutang Palace, Fu Qingwu's face was very ugly, and Honeysuckle followed the sedan chair and whispered: "The emperor is distressed by Niangniang, and he doesn't want Niangniang to be caught." ”
Fu Qingwu was originally stroking her forehead without saying a word, but when she heard Honeysuckle's words, she put down her hand and smiled coldly: "Distressed? What is the most important thing about this harem? Isn't it the emperor's favor? This palace is of the same rank as Concubine Yun and Concubine Hui, and their qualifications are much later than them, why do other concubines in the palace attach themselves to this palace instead of them? ”
Honeysuckle groaned, Fu Qingwu continued: "The people in the palace are the best at looking at the direction of the wind, and it is precisely because the emperor has given the palace favor that the palace can stand out in the harem. ”
"This just shows the weight of Niangniang in the emperor's heart." Honeysuckle answered.
Fu Qingwu's face did not distinguish between light and dark: "When the emperor first inherited the throne, the court situation was unstable, and he should have been of the same heart as the queen mother's mother and son, but it was not for that woman to repeatedly break the palace rules and argue with the queen mother." If the emperor really feels sorry for the palace, even if there is any handle, it will shut up the gossips, in the final analysis, the emperor is just a love for the palace, and the main lord is about to come back, and the shadow of the palace is no longer meaningful. ”
"Don't be discouraged, it is still unknown whether that woman will come back or when she will come back, and that woman has been living abroad for so many years, I am afraid that she is already an unclean body, and the emperor may not be able to dislike it when the time comes." In fact, Honeysuckle is not wrong in what she said, Chu Xiangwan has gone and what she has done all these years, no one in the palace knows, even if she looks like a heavenly immortal, the royal family will not want an unclear woman.
Fu Qingwu suddenly smiled: "What you said is good. The palace will not let her return to the palace smoothly, let alone return all the things she has in her hands, Chu Xiangwan. Hongu won't let you get your wish. ”
Fu Qingwu's laughter echoed within such an empty palace wall, making people feel eerie and terrifying, but she didn't notice it at all, and only quietly thought about how to get Chu Xiangwan's whereabouts and deal with this woman on the way.
When she arrived at the gate of Yutang Palace, Fu Qingwu saw Mama Li walking up with someone before she got off the sedan chair. At this time, it is really unusual for Mama Li to appear here. Fu Qingwu felt bad in her heart, so she calmed down and asked, "Mama Li, why did you come here late at night?" ”
Mama Li seemed to have a smile on her face. She said in a low voice: "Niangniang doesn't need to get off the sedan chair, the Queen Mother asked you to go to Cihe Palace immediately." After speaking, Mama Li directly commanded the sedan chair man and said, "Get up the sedan chair." ”
Honeysuckle was a little anxious, and just as she wanted to speak, she saw Concubine Li's face. It was Concubine Li who signaled her not to move. Mama Li came prepared, and if she didn't go to Cihe Palace, she would be able to resist the decree, and she would be able to cure her master's sins immediately.
The sedan chair drivers did not dare to slack off, and carried the sedan chair all the way to the door of the Cihe Palace, sitting on the sedan chair Fu Qingwu was a little dizzy, as soon as the sedan chair stopped, she leaned on the side and rubbed her temples, Mama Li saw this situation and said in a bad tone: "Niangniang, don't waste time anymore." The queen mother's golden body has not rested until this time for the affairs of the harem, and your body seems to be more delicate than the queen mother! ”
Fu Qingwu suddenly raised her eyes and looked directly at Mama Li and said, "Since the Queen Mother is a golden body. Mama Li should take good care of it, and big things can't damage the queen mother's noble body, Mama Li, if the queen mother has anything, it's not you slaves! Besides, Mama Li is an old man in the palace, why is she still so impatient when she encounters trouble. ”
"You!" Mama Li's face was a little pale, although Concubine Li had suppressed the concubines in the harem over the years and used ruthless methods, she always looked humble in front of the Queen Mother. No matter how Concubine Li is, she is also the master, the Queen Mother has not been convicted, and Mama Li does not dare to make a mistake.
Concubine Li didn't look at Mama Li anymore, got up and got off the sedan chair, and took Honeysuckle's hand into the gate of Cihe Palace.
Entering the main hall, the Queen Mother sat neatly dressed in the middle, and Concubine Yun and Concubine Hui were standing beside her, Concubine Yun's face was a little proud, but Concubine Hui's face was not abnormal. Fu Qingwu walked a few steps quickly to the Queen Mother, Ying Ying bowed down: "The concubines see the Queen Mother, and they summon the concubines to come late at night, I don't know what happened?" ”
"Concubine Li, you are so bold that you dare to invite pets with forbidden drugs in the palace, what crime should you be guilty of?" The Queen Mother slammed the table and asked.
Concubine Li's face changed, how could this be, how could the Queen Mother know about Wushisan? No, is it a deliberate temptation of the Queen Mother? You can't mess up first. Thinking of how to deal with it in his mind, he kept hiding his expression, Fu Qingwu bowed down again, and said innocently: "The Queen Mother is clear, and the concubines don't know what the Queen Mother is referring to?" ”
"At this moment, you are still so calm, Concubine Li, the mourning family has to say that you have indeed impressed the mourning family." The Queen Mother sneered.
"The concubine is afraid, please make it clear to the Queen Mother."
"Mama Li, you show her."
"Yes." Mama Li picked up the white paper wrapped five stone powder from the table and put it in front of Fu Qingwu.
"This is" Fu Qingwu was shocked, it was indeed Wushisan, but she pretended not to know what it was.
"This is Goshisan. Do you still want to quibble? This is what the Queen Mother asked Mama Li to take people to search for in your palace, you dare to use such a dirty thing for the emperor to cause damage to the emperor's dragon body, what a slut! Fang Xiaozhou couldn't wait, she couldn't see Fu Qingwu's innocent look, so she rushed ahead of Mama Li and scolded sharply. But Fang Xiaohan still didn't speak, didn't the emperor know that this was Wushisan, since the emperor was willing to use it, I am afraid that it would not be so easy to cure Qingwu's sin.
"Concubine Li, the mourning family will ask you again, are you guilty?" The Queen Mother's tone was full of ice, and she would not let anyone want to hurt her son's life.
Fu Qingwu lowered her head and did not speak.
The Queen Mother continued: "Okay, it seems that you have admitted it, you secretly hid five stones and scattered them first, and bewitched the emperor to take forbidden drugs to damage the dragon body, and according to the palace rules, there is only one word - death." Spread the will of the mourning family, and post the officials. "The Queen Mother has already made a killing move, Fu Qingwu's actions are based on the temperament of the Queen Mother, I can't wait to let her die a hundred times, just look at the degree of hemoptysis that day on the emperor, the emperor will not take Wushisan for a day or two.
This is not a decent way to die, and people are very painful when they are executed. Put the mulberry paper on the person's face, the prisoner has a burning knife in his mouth, spray hard, poke out a burst of mist, the mulberry paper is damp and soft, and immediately sticks to the person's face, the prisoner then covers the second sheet, as the law concocted, the prisoner first struggles with his hands and feet, and when the fifth sheet is used, the person will never move again. The judge lifted up the five pieces of mulberry paper, which were concave and convex, like a mask of "jumping plus officials" on the stage, which is the origin of the name "sticking plus officials".
"What else are you looking at? Don't drag her down yet! Concubine Yun commanded to the minions beside her.
Several minions looked at each other, and some did not dare to step forward, but they looked at the face of the Queen Mother and knew that they could not delay, so they stepped forward one after another to prepare to set up Fu Qingwu. (To be continued.) )
