Chapter 126: It's hard to escape the blame
However, even if the man in black is a person in the palace, then his identity must not be simple, and it is not something that she Su Jieyu can provoke. What's more, he knows everything about her like Shen Yunxi.
So, what's the use of letting her know who that person is?
Thinking like this, Su Lianrong sighed slightly and said, "Forget it, Dad." It doesn't matter if she has anyone in the palace or not, now let's think about how to deal with this matter. Pressed for time. ”
Su Bai'an pursed his head and thought about it, Su Lianrong's words this time were good.
He nodded, looking at Su Lianrong's somewhat tired appearance, and remembering that she almost had a miscarriage last night, he said, "How to deal with this matter, Dad is in charge." You just have to rest assured that you can raise the baby in the womb and don't worry too much, so as not to tire your body. ”
"Thank you." Su Lianrong finally showed a smile on her face, but she still asked a little uneasily: "That father is going to let people take the blame?" ”
Su Bai'an pondered for a moment before he said to her, "Cuihuan! ”
Su Lianrong was stunned, but she didn't expect that the first person Su Bai'an thought of was Cuihuan, although she also had a time last night if necessary, she didn't mind letting Cuihuan take her place.
At this time, listening to Su Bai'an, it coincided with her thoughts at that time.
Seeing that Su Lianrong didn't speak, Su Bai'an mistakenly thought that she couldn't bear it, after all, Cuihuan had been by her side for many years, and she had written about the friendship between master and servant, but now was an extraordinary time, not the time to talk about feelings.
Then, he said, "Pity Rong, now is not the time to feel sorry for the minions. Dad would have such an idea, and it was also well thought out. First, Cuihuan has been by your side for many years, and she knows exactly what you have done, although she is still loyal to you, and it is difficult to guarantee that one day she will be threatened and used to tell you about your previous behavior.
Second, since she returned to Zhong'an Palace last night, she has been muttering about seeing ghosts, and she is still in a state of confusion, and it is best to take advantage of her state to deal with things before she wakes up. Dad hopes you understand these two points, except for Cuihuan, no one else is a good candidate. You have to be resolute in your decision, and don't care about your friendship with your master and servant. ”
After Su Bai'an said his thoughts, it was not in vain to say something serious to Su Lianrong.
Listening to Su Bai'an's words, Su Lianrong smiled suddenly, then looked at him and said, "Dad, you don't have to comfort me. Your daughter and I are not a person with a bodhisattva's heart, Cuihuan is just a palace maid by my side, and I will not push myself into a dangerous situation because I am reluctant to her. Therefore, I still want to thank Xie Dad for thinking so much for me, if it weren't for you to come, I would still be anxious here. ”
"Hmm." Su Bai'an nodded, "If you can think like this, my father will be relieved." …… Okay, I'll go and arrange things properly first, and then you can think about how to tell the emperor later. ”
After Su Lianrong nodded, Su Bai'an left quickly. And Su Lianrong sat on the chair and thought about what she wanted to say to the emperor in the future, how to say it to show that she was wronged, and how to say it to show that she understood the righteousness.
……
In the evening, Su Lianrong went to the imperial study with Su Bai'an, Feng Linye was a little surprised by their arrival, and even more surprised after hearing what they wanted to explain.
Su Lianrong said: Cuihuan was very angry because she was wronged in front of Shen Yunxi on the day of the Queen Mother's wedding banquet, so she had the idea of framing her under impulse, but after doing it, she was always worried about being found out of the truth, and she was panicked every night.
And Cuihuan has been by her side for all these years, seeing her like this, she finally couldn't bear it, and today, under her many comforts, she told her about the murder of the queen mother in an attempt to frame Princess Rui. She was even more stunned when she heard this, and only then did she tell her why she did this.
When she said this, Su Lianrong burst into tears, blaming herself for not discovering that Cuihuan was wrong earlier, and blaming herself for the grievances in her heart when she had a little dispute with Princess Rui in the back garden. If she hadn't said those words, or if she had been more careful, the Queen Mother would not have suffered such suffering, and Princess Rui was imprisoned in the prison for no reason.
She has the responsibility of not being strict with her slaves and having no way to discipline her. Therefore, after hearing what she said, she immediately rushed to the imperial study, and in addition to revealing the truth of the matter, she also came to the imperial study to ask him for guilt.
Feng Linye put down the fold in his hand, spared the table, walked slowly to Su Lianrong, bent down to help her up, and said, "Concubine Ai, you get up first." ”
"Your Majesty." Su Lianrong responded with a low sob, and stood up with the strength of Feng Linye's help to her.
Gonggong Li watched from the sidelines, and immediately moved the chair and put it in front of Su Lianrong, "Su Jieyu, please take a seat." ”
Su Lianrong looked at Feng Linye with tears in her eyes, and after seeing him nodding to her, she sat down elegantly.
And Su Bai'an on the side also sat down.
After sitting down, Su Lianrong raised her head and said to Feng Linye: "Your Majesty, this time fortunately, it didn't hurt the life of the queen mother, otherwise the concubine would really be to blame." As he spoke, tears slid down from the corners of his eyes.
"It's come to this, don't blame yourself too much." Feng Linye said comfortingly, and bent over to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Then, he asked: "In addition to Cuihuan's statement, there are other physical evidences that can prove that this matter was done by Cuihuan alone." ”
Su Lianrong was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Feng Linye to ask such a question, and then she said: "The concubine thinks, Cuihuan has no reason to joke about this kind of thing." In addition, if it is true as she said, there must be poison hidden in her room to murder the queen mother. ”
Feng Linye pursed his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said to Gonggong Li on the side: "Spread my word and order Wei Qian to go to Zhong'an Palace immediately to search for evidence of murdering the Empress Dowager. If evidence is found, the offender will be punished. As he said this, a cruel sneer hung on his lips.
"The minions obey." Gonggong Li responded respectfully, turned around and walked out of the imperial study.
Previously, after he announced that Shen Yunxi would be sent to the prison, he did not immediately order someone to try the case, firstly, because the border disturbed his heart, and secondly, Shen Yunxi was the princess Rui appointed by himself, and the matter was very high.
Originally, she thought that she would make a decision on this matter after making detailed plans for the border matter, but she didn't expect that at this time, Su Lianrong would come to tell her that this matter was done by people in her palace, so that Shen Yunxi was no longer involved in this matter, which reduced a lot of burden on him.
If it is found out that she Shen Yunxi has something to do with this matter, it will really be difficult for him to choose punishment.
After all, there are Shen Mutian and Feng Qingchen behind her.
One is the God of Wealth and the other is the God of War. He can't afford to slack off on either of them.
But at the same time, the queen mother is his mother, and he can't really not punish her, so this relationship is also the reason why he has not ordered a review for a long time. However, now that Su Lianrong has this statement, these thoughts no longer exist.
In this way, my heart suddenly felt a lot easier.
And Su Lianrong and Su Bai'an listened to his order, and they were also relieved. The two of them couldn't help but look at each other, everything was in their eyes.
This should be the end of this matter.
