Chapter 172: You Talk Nonsense
A palm of sweat gradually appeared in the palms of Hu Cairen's hands.
Chang Zhaoyi snorted coldly, and said loudly: "Hu Cairen, this palace is here to ask you, what do you have to say about your previous miscarriage?" ”
Hu Cairen's face turned pale, but he still stood up straight, gritted his teeth and replied, "Chang Zhaoyi, I don't know what you want to say." ”
"What do you want to say? This palace is here to ask you, were you really pregnant at the time? Chang Zhaoyi continued to say coldly.
"What does Chang Zhaoyi mean when she says this, isn't it accusing me of not being pregnant at the time?" Hu Cairen looked at Chang Zhaoyi with cold eyes and stared fiercely.
"If people don't know unless they do it, this palace will not cry when they see that you don't see the coffin!" Chang Zhaoyi slammed the armrest of the chair and drank: "Come on, bring Zhu Mei!" ”
Someone outside shouted yes.
Hu Cairen's heart became more and more nervous.
Zhu Mei walked in, knelt down and said hello to the emperor, Chang Zhaoyi and Hu Cairen.
"Get up, this palace has sent you today, that is, if you have something to ask you, you can answer truthfully." Chang Zhaoyi said softly.
"Yes." Zhu Mei agreed and got up, and stood aside with his hands down.
"Zhu Mei, this palace is here to ask you, what did you hear and see last night?" Chang Zhaoyi asked.
"Yes, sis. Yesterday, the slave maid was in Yaohua Pavilion, and a girl named Ru Xuan came to find Hu Cairen, and after a few words, they quarreled, and the slave and maid heard movement outside the window, and listened to the wall for a while. I only heard that the content of the dispute between Hu Cairen and Ru Xuan was probably about the last time Hu Cairen had a miscarriage, which seemed to mean that Hu Cairen was not pregnant at the time, but in order to compete for favor, he claimed that he was pregnant...... Zhu Mei whispered.
"You talk nonsense!" Hu Cairen suddenly argued.
Chang Zhaoyi frowned, and drank: "Hu Cairen, after you listen to her, if what she says is not the truth, then the palace will definitely return you to a clean slate." ”
At this time, if you argue strongly, I am afraid that it will make others think that they have ghosts in their hearts!
Hu Cairen's lips trembled a few times, and finally stopped.
Zhu Mei continued: "But as time passed, Hu Cairen knew that he couldn't hide it from others, so he came up with the matter of framing Shang Meiren, so that Shang Meiren could bear the charge of mutilating the imperial heir, and at the same time get rid of the fake pregnancy...... Later, the slave and maid also saw that Hu Cairen ordered Yaohua Pavilion to tie up Ru Xuan and put her in the firewood room, for fear that she would kill people and kill her. The slave was frightened, knowing that this matter was very important, so she found the mother to tell the truth, and gave justice to the beauty that day! ”
The emperor, who had been closing his eyes at first, suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Hu Cairen when he heard the words "Shang Meiren" at this time.
Hu Cairen was shocked, but he still stabilized his mind.
"Is it fair to still be beautiful? Hmph, I think you're a bloody squirt! Hu Cairen couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and shouted: "Zhu Mei, you are the palace maid in my Yaohua Pavilion, why don't you tell the emperor and queen if you have something, how did you find Chang Zhaoyi?" Could it be that you still hate me for smashing the pearl white porcelain vase given to me by the emperor that day, and I punished you? ”
Hu Cairen's words are obviously saying that Zhu Mei is dissatisfied with her because of the punishment, so she is suspected of being framed, so Zhu Mei's words cannot be fully believed.
Chang Zhaoyi's body shook and glanced at Zhu Mei.
Zhu Mei understood, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Ask the emperor and Chang Zhaoyi to learn clearly, the slave maid has been down-to-earth since he entered the palace for several years, no matter which master he serves, he is conscientious, and he never dares to lose the duty of the slave and maid." It's just that last night's incident, the slave maid felt that the matter was very important, involving the imperial heir and Shang Meiren, and the slave and maid did not dare not report it. But the slave and maid were only familiar with Chang Zhaoyi, so they had to tell Chang Zhaoyi first. ”
Zhu Mei listened to Yunxuan serving Chang Zhaoyi at first, he was considered an old master, and it was a matter of course for him to take refuge if something happened, so Zhu Mei's words were also reasonable.
Hu Cairen still wanted to argue, but Chang Zhaoyi raised his hand at this time and said: "Since this is the case, then ask Ru Xuan to come out to confront you, and you can know whether what happened last night is true." What does the emperor think? ”
The emperor did not change his color, and said lightly: "Chang Zhaoyi can just look at the arrangement, according to Zhu Mei, Ru Xuan is locked up in the firewood room at this time?" ”
"Exactly, the concubine overstepped." Chang Zhaoyi said modestly, but his face was proud.
finally had the opportunity to suppress Hu Cairen openly, how could she not be happy in her heart?
The emperor did not speak, which was equivalent to acquiescence.
So, Chang Zhaoyi greeted the two stout grandmothers and ordered them to go to the firewood room to find someone.
Seeing this, Hu Cairen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a smile: "Chang Zhaoyi, the concubine can be guaranteed, the firewood room of Yaohua Pavilion is all sundries, and no one has been imprisoned. ”
"Is there anyone else, what Hu Cairen said doesn't count, and what Bengong said doesn't count, you have to speak with facts." Chang Zhaoyi thought that Hu Cairen was pretending to be calm, and sneered.
After a while, Mama came back and said, "Back to the emperor, Chang Zhaoyi, there is indeed no half of a figure in the firewood room, only some firewood, grass and sundries. ”
What the?
Chang Zhaoyi sat up straight and glanced at Zhu Mei in disbelief.
Could it be that this Zhu Mei can't trick her?
Zhu Mei also glanced at Chang Zhaoyi in surprise, spread his hands, and said that he didn't know anything about this matter.
"Chang Zhaoyi, it seems that there is no palace maid named Ru Xuan in the firewood room, and Zhu Mei must be lying, what should he be guilty of framing others?" Hu Cairen said with a smile, his face full of sarcasm.
Chang Zhaoyi's face changed again and again, and he suddenly slapped the armrest of the chair under his hand, and drank: "Bold Hu Cairen, you actually took the first step to kill people and kill people!" ”
"The concubine is wronged, Chang Zhaoyi, you are clearly a bloody spew, Ru Xuan is a palace maid in the Queen Mother's Palace, she must be in the Queen Mother's Palace at this time, where is there any murder to say?" Hu Cairen sneered and replied.
Seeing that Hu Cairen was so fearless, Chang Zhaoyi muttered in his heart.
Could it be that this talented man really had an arrangement early, so he responded so calmly?
If Ru Xuan was really invited over, not only would it disturb the Queen Mother, but if this matter was really a bureau set up by Hu Cairen, wouldn't he let himself fall into the net?
Chang Zhaoyi thought for a while and shouted: "Okay, let's not talk about Zhu Mei's testimony for the time being, there is another person in this palace who can testify to what Hu Cairen did, see what else you have to quibble!" ”
"Then please ask Chang Zhaoyi to bring her up, the concubine is willing to argue with her, and the concubine will be innocent." Hu Cairen replied.
A gleam flashed in Chang Zhaoyi's eyes, and he drank: "Bring Imperial Doctor Meng up!" ”
Hu Cairen's heart tightened, and cold sweat fell.
"Hu Cairen, what are you nervous about? Aren't you worried about the ruin? Chang Zhaoyi looked at Hu Cairen's somewhat pale face and said with a smile.
Hu Cairen forced a smile and said: "Chang Zhaoyi said that she laughed, the concubine's body is not afraid of crooked shadows, so naturally she will not be nervous." ”
That being said, Hu Cairen's hands couldn't stop trembling, but fortunately, the sleeves were wide and he was not seen by others. R1152
