Chapter 220: True Face

"Your Majesty, the slave has something important to report." Ma Hui walked lightly to Huangfu Jingwen's side and said in a low voice.

"Huh? What's the matter? Huangfu Jingwen bowed his head to criticize the chapter, but he didn't hear Ma Hui speak again for a long time, so he looked up at Ma Hui, and Ma Hui had a difficult look on his face, and seemed to be hesitating how to speak.

"What the hell is going on, it doesn't hurt to be straightforward." Huangfu Jingwen asked again.

"Back to the emperor, the imperial concubine has already entered the capital."

Huangfu Jingwen immediately put down the brush in his hand and asked happily, "Really?" Did you send someone to pick it up late? ”

"Yes, the slave had already filmed Commander Bian to save people, but the imperial concubine still didn't stay."

"What do you mean by this, 'saving people'? Be clear. Huangfu Jingwen frowned, why did Ma Hui speak so much.

"Your Majesty, here's the thing, the slave got the news that someone in the palace hired a killer from the Tang Sect to intercept and kill the imperial concubine halfway, so that she couldn't return to the palace, so the slave sent Commander Bian to lead people to the rescue. They had already seen the face of the imperial concubine, but the killers of the Tang Sect were entangled with them, and the people who were respected by the imperial fu took the imperial concubine and quietly fled, and now they don't know their whereabouts. ”

"Bastard! Who is so bold? You just said that the palace insiders, could it be that the Queen Mother sent them? How did the Queen Mother know Xiang Wan's whereabouts? Huangfu Jingwen slapped the table heavily, shaking the lid of the teacup and jumping.

"The refusal of the slave knows, the buyer of the Tang Gate killer is not the queen mother." Ma Hui wanted to speak and stopped.

"Looks like you already know who this man is, just tell me. I want to see who has such a vicious heart to harm my beloved. "Huangfu Jingwen is anxious to know who is behind the scenes.

"The emperor might as well think about it himself, who else have you told about the imperial concubine going back to Beijing?" Ma Hui still didn't say it directly. The emperor himself needs to know this matter, and he may not be able to convince the emperor by rashly accusing him.

Huangfu Jingwen looked at Ma Hui suspiciously, Ma Hui wanted to hide nothing in front of him, but this time it was very strange, he recalled and thought, and finally, he reacted and asked slowly: "Is it Concubine Li?" ”

Speak these words. Before Ma Hui could answer, Huangfu Jingwen shook his head again and denied his words: "Concubine Li and Xiang Wan have a deep sisterhood, how can this be?" And she has a weak temperament. Never"

"Your Majesty, please listen to the minion." Ma Hui suddenly knelt down.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, why bother?" Seeing Ma Hui so cautious, Huangfu Jingwen felt that what he said next must be very important.

"Your Majesty. Concubine Li's 'friendship' with the imperial concubine is probably just a bargaining chip for her to win the favor of the saint. And the second prince has been raised by her, if the imperial concubine returns to the palace, all her favor and hopes will be in vain, how can she stand it. Seeing that Huangfu Jingwen was silent, Ma Hui continued, "Your Majesty, how can the women in this harem have any real sisterhood, you grew up in the palace since you were a child. It should be deeply understood. A woman like the imperial concubine who is gentle and polite and does not quarrel or complain, the harem is really rare. ”

"You said that Concubine Li instructed the Tang Sect killers to intercept and kill Xiang Wan. Is there any evidence? Huangfu Jingwen Xian was moved by Ma Hui's words, but he has been accompanied by Concubine Li all these years, and he is still a little suspicious in his heart.

"The emperor waits, the servant brought someone here." Ma Hui got up and walked to the door.

Huangfu Jingwen nodded.

Ma Hui opened the door, Zizhang had already arrived, it turned out that he asked the little eunuch to find Zizhang to come and plead.

Also entering the imperial study with Zizhang was Bian Yi, and the two knelt in front of Huangfu Jingwen.

"Zizhang, why are you? Arise, all of you. Huangfu Jingwen waved his hand.

"Your Majesty, it was Zizhang who told the slaves that someone was going to assassinate the imperial concubine."

"Zizhang, come on, tell me everything you know."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zizhang Fushen said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li accompanied you to the night after returning from the spring, she mysteriously left the palace, after she returned to the palace, the slave heard her conversation with Honeysuckle, she told Honeysuckle to go to Guanju Palace to get an old dress of the imperial concubine, so that the killers outside the palace have a way to track down the whereabouts of the imperial concubine, and the slave followed Honeysuckle all the way, and she did so." The slave knew that the matter was important and did not dare to hide it, so she found the manager of Ma and told the truth. ”

"Other than that, what else did Concubine Li do?" Huangfu Jingwen frowned, Zizhang has always been steady, and she has done her best to take care of Kai'er over the years, she has been in Yutang Palace for so many years, and some things must not be fake.

"Concubine Li has told the Queen Mother the news that the imperial concubine is going back to the palace, and they are connected in a line, in order to intercept the imperial concubine outside the palace, these years, the emperor does not know, Concubine Li never let us mention the imperial concubine in front of the second prince, and the second prince now only knows the adoptive mother of Concubine Li and does not know the biological mother of the imperial concubine. And Jin'er, her death"

"Didn't Jin'er die of a cold infection?"

"It's not true, it's just because Jin'er often mentions that the imperial concubine is his biological mother in front of the second prince, and Jin'er knows more about Concubine Li's past than I know, Concubine Li is angry and angry, so she killed her." Speaking of this, Zizhang's voice choked, if Jin'er was still there, she would definitely be happier than her knowing that the imperial concubine was coming back.

"Concubine Li, it would be such a woman! I've been deceived by her for so many years?! Huangfu Jingwen's hand held the corner of the table tightly, he was devastated, it turned out that he thought that the "sisterhood" between Fu Qingwu and Chu Xiangwan was very rare in this palace, but he didn't want to, it turned out to be a play.

"Ma Hui, you go to Yutang Palace, and escort Concubine Li to the imperial study immediately." Huangfu Jingwen was furious, pointed at Ma Hui, and was about to convict Fu Qingwu.

"Your Majesty, please take a break from the wrath of the thunder, and now go and investigate Concubine Li's guilt, I'm afraid that the palace will know about the imperial concubine's imminent return, and then the queen mother will only be more crazy to look for the traces of the imperial concubine outside the palace, which will make the imperial concubine dangerous." Ma Hui persuaded on the side, "It's better to be"

"Why not as good as what?"

"It's better to quietly pay attention to Concubine Li's movements in private, and even the Queen Mother can know a thing or two about her actions."

Ma Hui's proposal made Huangfu Jingwen sit on the dragon chair without speaking for a long time, and finally, he nodded and said, "Zizhang, you take good care of the second prince in Yutang Palace and monitor Concubine Li's every move." Ma Hui, you go and check on me in the palace to see how many hurtful things Concubine Li has done behind my back over the years. Bian Yi, you search for the whereabouts of that Tang Sect outside the palace, see what Concubine Li has to do with them, and if they make any more moves, even if they take down these people. ”

"Wechen obeys."

"The minions obey."

"The slave obeys."

The three of them knelt down in unison. (To be continued.) )
