Chapter 1782: The Sin of Deception
Not to mention what happened to them, Xu promised to hesitate after getting Xiao Ningzi's words, but in the end, he went to the Heart Cultivation Hall to see Yinzhen according to the words of the Nala clan. Before that, she specially asked people to inquire and learned that Ling Ruo had never left the Chengqian Palace.
Entering the palace, Xu promised to sneak a glance at Yinzhen, who was sitting behind the imperial case, and bowed his head and said: "The concubine has seen the emperor, and the emperor is blessed." ”
"Let's be flat." Yin Zhen looked at her for a while before saying, "You came to see me now, why did you come to see me?" ”
"If you go back to the emperor, the concubines are here for the affairs of the concubines and Yan Guiren." Listening to Xu's words, Yin Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "I have handed over this matter to Concubine Xi for full disposal, if you have anything to say, you should go to see Concubine Xi." ”
Xu Shi looked at his reflection on the gold brick and said softly: "The concubine is only afraid that the concubine Niangniang will not want to hear the words of the concubine, because ...... The concubine Niangniang has always thought that the matter of the Imperial Garden is a trap set by the concubine Niangniang to frame the Yan nobles. ”
Yin Zhen stared at her and said slowly: "What do you know?" ”
Xu clenched his hands in his sleeves and said: "The concubine didn't dare to hide it from the emperor, yesterday the concubine really didn't see who pushed the sixth elder brother, but the concubine saw that the wrist of that hand had a string of jade beads, and afterwards the concubine didn't find any jade beads on the wrist of the begonia, but Yan Guiren ......"
Although Xu Shi didn't say it, how could Yinzhen not understand what she meant, and said at the moment: "Since you know the Tao, why didn't you say it yesterday?" ”
Xu said with a sad face: "The concubine and Yan Guiren were elected to the palace together, and Yan Guiren has always treated the concubines very well, and the concubines really can't bear to tell the truth, so before Xi Guifei asked the concubines, the concubines all said that they didn't know." But the concubine has been condemned by her conscience in her heart, she can't sleep, she doesn't know the taste of food, and after thinking about it several times, the concubine still decided to tell the truth, so as not to wronged the concubine. ”
Yin Zhen nodded, and the next moment he said something that Xu promised to be unable to react for a long time, "Are you afraid that you have wronged Concubine Qian, or are you afraid that Concubine Qian will really be convicted?" ”
After Xu Yu came back to his senses, he endured the doubt in his heart and said, "Forgive the concubine for being ignorant and don't understand the emperor's meaning." ”
"You'll get it soon." Saying this, Yinzhen said to Xiao Wu who was waiting on the side: "Go and invite Concubine Qian to come over." ”
Xiao Wu retreated according to his words, but when he arrived at Yongshou Palace, he learned that Concubine Qian had gone to Kunning Palace, so he hurriedly rushed to Kunning Palace and asked Concubine Qian to go to the Palace of Nourishing Heart with him.
Liu knew that he must have promised to meet Yinzhen according to Nala's instructions, and now Yinzhen wanted to pass on himself to question, and after saluting Nala, she followed Xiao Wu all the way to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Before Liu could bend his knees and say the words of greeting, he heard Yinzhen say: "Concubine Qian, I want to ask you again in person, who was Hongzhan pushed down, Haitang or Yan Guiren?" ”
Liu's eyes turned red, and he said: "The concubine has said countless times, Haitang will never do anything to hurt Hongzhan, why does the emperor just not believe in the concubine?" ”
Yin Zhen bowed his head and said: "Yes, Begonia will indeed not hurt Hongzhan, but you will be a mother!" ”
As soon as these words came out, both the Liu family and the Xu family were taken aback, how could Yinzhen say such a thing, shouldn't he ......
When they were still thinking about what Yinzhen meant by this, Yinzhen had already spoken out again: "Come out." ”
Come out? Who to let out?
Liu's and Xu's questions were quickly answered, because a figure walked out of the screen behind Yinzhen, and it was Ling Ruo.
"You...... How did you end up here? Liu Shi stared at Ling Ruo like a ghost, she didn't know what words to use to describe the shock in her heart, but the moment Ling Ruo appeared, she already smelled a trace of bad breath.
"It's strange that Hongu will be here?" Ling Ruo smiled and said, "But this palace is not strange at all, and Concubine Qian and Xu promised to be here. ”
Xu was a little calmer than Liu, swallowed his saliva, and whispered: "The concubine is stupid and doesn't understand what Niangniang means." ”
"Actually, it's very simple, this palace made a bet with the emperor, saying that as long as this palace lets out the word and finds someone who witnessed the whole thing in the imperial garden, someone will definitely appear in front of the emperor to prove her innocence for the concubine. As a result, Xu promised that you would appear. ”
Both Liu's and Xu's faces changed drastically, and the former said in a trembling voice: "In this way, there are no witnesses at all?" ”
Ling Ruoyan smiled and said: "No, Begonia is so secretive, how can this palace find witnesses, but now it seems that it doesn't matter if there are witnesses or not." ”
Whether it was the Liu family or the Xu family, they all understood that they had fallen for Ling Ruo's plan, but it was too late to say anything now, and in a panic, the Liu family saw Yinzhen's gloomy face, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, you listen to what the concubine ......said."
"I don't want to hear it!" Yin Zhen interrupted Liu's words sharply, "Before, Concubine Xi said that Hongzhan's matter was related to you, I still don't believe it, I always think that you are Hongzhan's mother, and you won't harm Hongzhan, they all say that tigers don't eat children, but you are more vicious than that tiger!" Speaking of hatred, Yinzhen picked up the glass paperweight on the case and threw it at Liu, smashing it in front of her feet, scaring Liu so much that he was paralyzed and speechless.
Looking at the frightened expressions of the Liu family and the Xu family, Ling Ruo showed a cold smile, she knew that as long as she released the news that she had found a witness, the Liu family would definitely panic, and if she couldn't think of a way, she would definitely go to the Nala family for help. If she wants to veto the "witness" she found, the only way is to find a more powerful witness, and Xu Promise is an excellent choice, so she boldly speculates that the Nala clan will push Xu Promise out, first, she is the master, and her words are far more weighty than the palace people; Second, she has always been on Qi Jia's side, and no one will suspect that she is intentionally helping Liu.
After figuring this out, she quietly came to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and made such a bet with Yinzhen, as for the things in the Chengqian Palace, she told Yang Hai to do it before leaving, and the rumors were also released by Yang Hai, and she has been staying in the Heart Cultivation Palace.
In a fit of rage, Yinzhen turned his gaze to Xu's and said coldly: "What about you, what kind of benefits did Liu Runyu promise you, so that you could help her commit the crime of bullying the king?" ”
Xu Shi hurriedly knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "The concubine knows her mistake!" ”
Ling Ruo stared at the Xu clan who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "Xu promised, who instructed you to do this, concubine Qian?" Or is it someone else? ”
Xu Shi trembled, feeling that Ling Ruo seemed to know the person who really mastered her, but how did she know that she had never been in contact with the queen.
Do you want to give the queen out? This thought was only erased by her for a moment, she had already offended Concubine Xi, and she must not offend the queen again, otherwise there would really be no one to save herself.
