Chapter 796: Confession
The concubines glanced at each other, both scared and wanted to see, but no one retreated at the end, Yinzhen glanced around, and saw Shu Mulu biting her lip standing behind Tong Jia, beckoning her to come closer, and said slowly: "You have always been timid, don't stay here." 0”
Shu Mulu twisted a handkerchief, flashed black and white eyes, and said softly: "The concubine is not afraid, and the concubine wants to ......" She seemed to be a little embarrassed, lowered her head, and said inaudibly: "I want to be by the emperor's side." ”
"Kitsune!" Nian scolded hatefully beside her, she has just died of her son now, and it is not pleasing to the eye, and she can't wait to make everyone feel bad.
Yin Zhen glanced at it lightly, displeasure flashed in his eyes, and when he looked at Shu Mulu again, he was already gentle, "In this case, then you should stand behind me, so as not to be frightened if you get too close." ”
Shu Mulu thanked him in surprise, and stood behind Yinzhen in Nian's distorted and uncomfortable face, and after a while, Imperial Doctor Liu arrived first, followed by the palace man who was responsible for carrying out Ling Chi's punishment, although this person was a eunuch, he was born with a face full of flesh, and a fierce aura was revealed from his bones. He is also thicker than ordinary people, wearing a eunuch suit on his body, as if he will be squeezed at any time, and holding a small knife as thin as a willow leaf in his hand, the blade is shiny and snow-white, but everyone who sees it knows in their hearts that this knife has drunk the blood of many people.
When the concubines and Imperial Physician Liu saw this person, they were all a little scared, and subconsciously stepped back a little, lest they were accidentally slashed by the knife.
After the eunuch entered the hall, he knelt down and kowtowed excitedly, "Slave Liu knocked on the emperor and queen and all the maidens with a knife." ”
Liu Yidao has been an execution eunuch for many years, but because what he does is blood, he is a coarse and ominous person, not to mention entering the East and West Zodiac Palaces, it is the first time to meet Yinzhen.
After Yinzhen motioned for him to get up, Ling Ruo said quietly: "Hey, you are also surnamed Liu?" After he nodded, Ling Ruo's eyes turned and fell on Liu Hua's face, and he said with a smile: "Imperial Doctor Liu, he has the same surname as you, what a coincidence, maybe your ancestors are still brothers." ”
"The mother laughed." Liu Hua replied uncomfortably, but her feet subconsciously moved back a few more points, and this subtle movement unexpectedly fell in Ling Ruo's eyes, making the smile on her face a little deeper.
Imperial Physician Jin was the last one to be brought up, and when he appeared, many people covered their mouths and exclaimed, it was really his appearance that was too miserable, and there was no good meat on his body, and this was the result of Ling Ruo asking Hong Quan not to be tortured again last night, otherwise it would be even worse.
Imperial Physician Jin was thrown to the ground like a rag, and the wounds and blood on his body also added a trace of blood to the air in Yikun Palace.
And in this regard, Yin Zhen did not have a trace of sympathy, but with a deep disgust, "Jin Mingze, I ask you, who is the one who made you murder the third elder brother, and quickly recruit from the truth, otherwise I will kill you thousands of times!" ”
On the side, Nala also said with heavy eyes: "Jin Mingze, you have heard the emperor's words, and if you don't say it, it will not be good for you, so you should offer it early, so as not to suffer more from the flesh and skin." ”
Imperial Physician Jin swept the knife in Liu Yidao's hand, and there was a slight trace of anger in his numb eyes, but it soon dimmed again, and he could only hear him say: "Your Majesty, will the guilty minister confess the main messenger, and the emperor will be exempted from the pain of the flesh and skin on the criminal minister?" ”
"There is no escape from capital crimes, but living crimes can be avoided." Yin Zhen said these eight words coldly.
Imperial Physician Jin nodded silently, and Liu Hua next to him said hypocritically: "Imperial Physician Liu, I am thinking about you and my colleagues, I advise you not to be stubborn and not get along with yourself." ”
Imperial Physician Jin looked at Liu Hua's hypocritical face, revealing a sarcastic smile, he fell to this point, all thanks to him, and he even had the face to say this to himself, his cheekiness was really thick.
At this time, Nian suddenly rushed forward and said with undisguised hatred: "Jin Mingze, who is the mastermind, if you don't recruit from the truth, this palace will make your life worse than death!" ”
Jin Mingze looked at her in a daze, and after revealing a trace of sadness, he suddenly raised his hands handcuffed with iron chains and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the crime of killing the third elder brother deserves death, and the criminal minister is willing to say the name of the person behind the curtain to atone for the sins he has committed." ”
Seeing that Imperial Physician Jin was willing to say, whether it was Yinzhen or others, their expressions perked up, Yinzhen leaned over and stared at Imperial Physician Jin and said, "Say, who is it?" ”
"That person is ......" With Imperial Physician Jin's words, everyone's hearts rose to their throats, and they forgot to breathe, just staring at Jin Mingze without blinking.
The corners of Imperial Physician Liu's mouth curled slightly, revealing a subtle smile, as long as Jin Mingze said the word "Concubine Hui", the matter explained by the queen mother would be completed, and at that time, he would inevitably be more trusted by the queen mother than now, and Concubine Xi would also take care of herself flawlessly, and it would be difficult to trouble herself.
As long as she has a firm foothold in the palace and leans on the big tree of the queen's mother, even if Concubine Xi eases up, she can't help herself, unless she wants to clash with the queen head-on.
However, all the smugness and smiles turned into nothing when Jin Mingze said the second half of the sentence, and he only heard him say word by word: "It's the queen's mother!" ”
Quiet, death-like silence shrouded the sky over Yikun Palace, except for Ling Ruo, everyone felt incredible, how could it be the queen, how could it be her? Obviously, she has cleared her suspicions......
After returning to the earth one by one, Yikun Palace suddenly became chaotic, staring at the queen with suspicion and fear, being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, even the queen couldn't help but be a little breathless, slapped the armrest heavily, got up and pointed at Imperial Doctor Jin and said: "Bold, who are you instructed to dare to wronged this palace!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Ruyan already said with a happy smile: "Obviously, it was the queen mother who persuaded him to confess the main messenger, why is it that now that Imperial Doctor Jin has recruited him, you say that he wronged you?" ”
"Sister!" Ling Ruo pulled her sleeve and shook her head to signal her not to speak at this time, but Wen Ruyan finally caught the queen's sore spot, how could she let go, brushed away Ling Ruo's hand and stared at the pale-faced Nala clan with a sneer: "What, the queen has nothing to say?" ”
A trace of gloom flashed in Nala's eyes, calmed the anger in his chest, and turned to Yinzhen, who was speechless, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has been wronged once the day before yesterday, will she be wronged again today?" If the queen concubine is so unworthy of the emperor's trust, then ask the emperor to abolish the position of concubine and queen. ”
Strike first is strong, it has always been Nala's usual technique.
Sure enough, her words evoked Yinzhen's memory of the day before yesterday, and her expression eased, and Shu Mulu also said at this time: "Your Majesty, the concubine has something to say." ”
