Thinking of this, he said: "Hongying, do you dare to say these words again in front of the emperor?" ”

Hongying's eyes rolled and said: "As long as the boss is willing to intercede for the slave and let the emperor spare the slave and maid, the slave and the maid will definitely tell the truth." ”

"Okay." Tu Lichen gritted his teeth and said: "But in front of the emperor, you just need to say that Concubine Qin asked Ping'er to push the matter on the queen, and don't say anything else?" ”

Hongying looked at Tu Lichen puzzled, "Boss, why is this?" ”

"You don't have to ask, just do what the old man says, otherwise the old man won't guarantee that you will leave the Forbidden City alive." His words immediately frightened Hongying, and he nodded again and again: "Yes, the slave and maid know the way, and the slave and maid will definitely not talk nonsense." ”

Tu Lichen nodded, got up and brought Hongying into the main hall, as soon as they came in, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, and Yinzhen even said: "What, Hongyingken said it?" ”

"Back to the emperor's words, after the old minister understood her reasoning, she decided to tell the truth and not be in the same stream as Concubine Qin!" Tu Lichen's words shocked Concubine Qin, and her gaze staring at Hongying suddenly became cold, although the latter lowered his head, he could still feel the coldness, and his body trembled slightly involuntarily.

Concubine Qin said expressionlessly: "Hongying, I really want to hear what the truth you tell Master Tu Lichen. You are different from Ping'er, you are an old man who has been around me for many years, and I believe that you will not say some unwarranted words to wronged me. ”

Hearing this, Hongying's body trembled more than just now, and Tu Lichen saw this and said, "Hongying, you don't have to be afraid, just say what you told the old man in front of the emperor." Speaking of this, he glanced at Concubine Qin and said, "Don't worry, in this Heart Cultivation Palace, without the emperor's words, no one dares to do anything to you." ”

"Yes." Hongying agreed, knelt down and said something that made Concubine Qin change color in shock, "Your Majesty, Concubine Qin did ask Ping'er to push everything on the queen's mother, which is what the slave maid has heard. ”

In the face of a series of accusations, Concubine Qin could no longer maintain her composure, and said sharply: "Hongying, did Tu Lichen force you to say these words to wronged me?" What did he just say to you? ”

Hongying was reprimanded by her and didn't dare to speak, but Tu Lichen sneered: "The concubine doesn't want to spew blood, the old man just persuaded the Hongying girl not to speak with her conscience, and she didn't say anything on the side, let alone the word persecution." Concubine, the matter is already in front of you, and the old man advises you not to hold on any longer. ”

Yinzhen's gaze swept over Ping'er and Hongying's faces, and finally fell on Concubine Qin, and said slowly: "Concubine, are there something you haven't told me?" ”

Concubine Qin was shocked, raised her head to meet Yinzhen's questioning gaze, and said in a trembling voice: "Could it be that even the emperor listens to the words of these two cheap maids and doubts me?" ”

"If there is only one Ping'er, I can still say whether I believe it or not, but right now, even Hongying, who has followed the concubine for many years, has come forward to testify against you, which really makes me unbelievable." He paused and said, "The matter has come to this point, please tell the princess the truth, don't hide it any longer." ”

"I have already said everything I want to say, and there is nothing to hide, if the emperor really doesn't believe it, I can't do it." Concubine Qin hated Hongying and Ping'er to the core, especially Hongying, who actually turned against her at this time, which was simply her life, I don't know what kind of soup Tu Lichen poured her.

Yun Li saw that the atmosphere was getting stiffer, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my brother believes that E-Niang will not do such a thing, there must be any misunderstanding here, and please ask the emperor to find out." ”

Facing Yunli, Yinzhen was a little embarrassed for a while, and he didn't know how to answer, after all, in addition to Yunxiang, Yunli was the closest to him. But when it comes to this, it should be clear that Concubine Qin did do some disgraceful things to frame the queen. As for the purpose, it is to preserve her current glory.

Seeing that Yinzhen didn't speak, Tu Lichen stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Ping'er and Hongying both pointed out in unison that Concubine Qin, I believe that there will be no leave, please make a clear decision!" ”

Yin Zhen nodded slightly, slowly walked to the flustered Concubine Qin, and said, "Concubine, you wronged the queen, right?" ”

Concubine Qin is a person who is very good at judging the situation, looking at the situation in front of her, she knows that she can't escape this catastrophe, even if she denies it, it is useless, because listening to Yinzhen's tone, he clearly believes it. However, she didn't plan to carry all the black cauldrons on her back, and took a deep breath and said: "I didn't wronged the queen, that day in Kunning Palace, Ping'er was indeed instructed by me, but everything she said in front of the emperor at that time was the truth, the queen really bought Ping'er to kill Concubine Xi." ”

"E-Niang, ...... you" Yunli looked at Concubine Qin in disbelief, she couldn't imagine that what she had denied for a long time just now was actually true, E-Niang was really ......

Concubine Qin said guiltily: "Yunli, E-Niang can't help it, if E-Niang doesn't do that, it will be you and Concubine Xi who will suffer." Speaking of this, she looked at Yinzhen, whose face was uncertain, and said, "If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can ask Ping'er and Hongying to see if I lied." ”

Without waiting for Yinzhen to ask, Ping'er already kowtowed and said: "If you go back to the emperor, the queen mother has never bought the slave maid, and the slave doesn't know why Concubine Lu Daoqin wants to harm the queen like this." ”

Concubine Qin's face changed, she rushed to Ping'er and slapped her in the face, with so much force, she slapped Ping'er to the ground, gritted her teeth and said, ", it's not enough for you to betray me, do you want to continue to reverse right and wrong here?" ”

Ping'er covered her face and sobbed: "The slave didn't lie, the slave ......"

"Still lying here!" Concubine Qin was so angry that she trembled, raised her hand to fight again, Yunli grabbed her and said, "E-Niang, don't fight, let's listen to what Hongying has to say first." ”

Yunli reminded her of this, her cold gaze fell on Hongying, and she said word by word: "Hongying, you say, if you dare to lie like Ping'er, I will pick your skin!" ”

Tu Lichen was afraid that Hongying would be afraid to tell the truth, so he hurriedly followed: "Hongying, don't worry, the emperor and the old man are here, and they won't let Concubine Qin hurt you in the slightest." ”

"Yes." Hongying was so frightened that her whole body was paralyzed, and she trembled and said something that made Concubine Qin desperate, "Your Majesty, the slave maid has never heard that the queen mother wants to kill Concubine Xi......"

As soon as she finished speaking, her face was already the same as Ping'er, and she was slapped hard, and Concubine Qin's angry voice came from her ears, ", what am I sorry for you, you want to harm me like this?!" ”

When Hongying covered her face and cried, Concubine Qin had already said: "Your Majesty, these two cheap maids must have been bought by Tu Lichen, so they are talking nonsense to slander me, otherwise why did Tu Lichen talk to Hong Ying alone just now." Your Majesty, don't believe the words of the two of them, I really didn't harm the queen, it was the queen herself who had the intention of harming others, so she would ......"
