Chapter 71: Dare to pretend
As soon as the two of them wanted to make a move, their jaws fell in shock by the words of Fan Yuyi's mother, Granny Li.
This eldest lady is crazy, she dares to pretend to be the biological mother of the official family, even if the law of the Great Song Dynasty does not require the death penalty, she must be punished for capital crimes.
The two froze on the spot, and looked at Bao Zheng with four eyes, intending to ask.
Bao Zheng didn't expect that this Mrs. Li was hard to be light, and her words at this time were fatal.
Gongsun Ce's eyes widened wider and wider, almost protruding, this matter was too incredible, almost like in a dream.
For example, the people of the Qin Mansion, as well as Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others, all opened their mouths, and for a while, the entire side hall seemed to be silent and could be heard.
The two Chen sisters who served beside Granny Li were a little unclear, so their four eyes looked at each other curiously.
Only Fan Yu had expected it in his heart, and when he saw the arrival of his stepmother Granny Li, he had already guessed that his stepmother was going to stand up for him. At this time, his stepmother really stood up for him, and Fan Yu was also shocked in his heart.
In fact, he has not reached a dead end, as long as he talks to Bao Zheng again, he can express his thoughts and ideas, so as to reverse the case. But her stepmother, Granny Li, didn't know about it, and she was only afraid of her righteous son Fan Yu. didn't wait for Bao Zheng to ask, so he stepped forward directly.
Originally, Fan Yu didn't plan to let his stepmother recognize the official family, and with his own ability, he could fight for a lifetime of wealth. But when he saw his stepmother say these earth-shattering words at this time, he felt both distressed and secretly happy in his heart.
Fan Yu couldn't help but scold himself, Fan Yu, what are you secretly happy about? Could it be that with your stepmother's love for you, you can hug the thigh of the official family and add infinite wealth from now on, that's all? Unpromising! Your stepmother treats you like her own flesh and blood, and protects you in every way. But you have the heart to take advantage of it, which is really pitiful, shameful, and pathetic, and you are simply not human.
"Bao Qincha, my stepmother is really fond and worried about me, her words are just jokes, please don't take Bao Qincha seriously." Fan Yu couldn't help it, so he immediately opened his mouth to break the silence and tried to remedy it.
Bao Zheng's black face went from shock to relaxation, and then became extremely serious, "The matter involves the official family, how can there be child's play!" Mr. Gongsun, bring me the gold beads! ”
Gongsun Ce didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand to Granny Li and said, "Gongsun Ce wants to take the gold bead in the eldest lady's hand to inspect it, it's rude." ”
Fan Yu watched his stepmother hand over the gold bead in her hand to Gongsun Ce's hand, and felt very uncomfortable. Although he didn't force his stepmother to reveal his identity, his stepmother also did it for Fan Yu.
Gongsun Ce held the gold bead in both hands, careful not to shake it at all.
The eyes of the others were also fixed on the golden bead, moving with Gongsun Ce's footsteps.
Qin Yuanwai's Adam's apple moved up and down, and he only felt that his mouth was extremely dry. Mrs. Li has a very close relationship with his Qin family, and she has lived in the Qin Mansion for many years like a guest, but she was driven away by herself. If this Mrs. Li is really the biological mother of today's official family, then how should the Qin family deal with themselves? Where did his eldest brother live in Bianliang and why did he die, many of these questions are now extremely mysterious.
And Fan Zonghua, the temple of Tianqi Temple, was already stunned, and he didn't even dare to pant a little.
Bao Zheng solemnly took the gold bead in Gongsun Ce's hand and looked at it carefully.
The gold beads are made of pure gold, with a knot tied in the middle perforated, and they are very heavy in the hand. It is carved with the pattern of a dragon and a phoenix, covering a whole gold bead. When the gold bead rolls in his hand, it is as if the dragon and phoenix on the bead are alive and dancing. Just look at this carving, the lines are smooth and free, and the turning point is even more free, which must be from the hands of the master craftsman. Moreover, between the dragon and the phoenix, there are three small words 'Concubine Li Chen'.
Of course, none of this proves that this gold bead came from the palace. What really proves that this gold bead came from the palace is the mark on the gold bead. Engraved between the dragon scales are almost imperceptible imperial characters, as well as the year, month and date.
Imperial items like this are generally recorded in the palace, and it is impossible to pass them off.
Bao Zheng is the prefect of Kaifeng Mansion and the official Qincha, of course he has seen the imperial things in the palace. He held the gold bead tightly in his hand, and he actually believed seven or eight points in his heart. He doesn't know if this eldest lady is the biological mother of the official family, but this gold bead must be something in the palace.
"Dynasty Mahan, take the family outside the Qin Yuan, as well as the temple Zhu Fan Zonghua and the two little ladies out, and they can't come in without a summons." Bao Zheng said calmly.
When everyone in the Qin Mansion heard Bao Zheng say this, they were all apprehensive in their hearts, but they didn't dare to resist, and they all followed the two of them out obediently.
Bao Zheng looked at Fan Yu, and had the intention to drive him out, but after thinking about it, forget it. Looking at Fan Yu's performance, he didn't show much shock, as if he had already known something. And today's events are because of a series of changes caused by this kid.
Fan Yu had already judged the identity of his stepmother in his heart, so naturally he would not show much shock. But Bao Zheng is an expert in solving cases, and as soon as Fan Yu didn't pay attention, he was observed by Bao Zheng.
"Now the matter involves secrets in the palace, and everyone present must know the severity." Bao Zheng's gaze swept over everyone's faces and said: "Some of the things I want to ask later, you must not spread them, if they are spread, you will bear the consequences." ”
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Gongsun Ce, and Fan Yu, the four of them bowed to Bao Zheng at the same time, expressing their understanding.
Only Fan Yu's stepmother, Granny Li, stood tall, "Bao Qing, have you ever confirmed it." ”
Except for Fan Yu, the rest of the people present were a little frightened when they heard this Bao Qing. Even Bao Zheng himself, but also his heart sank.
Fan Yu stepped forward and grabbed his stepmother's arm and said, "Mother, why are you bothering." ”
blamed himself for taking it for too much and despising that Jia Zhixian. thought that with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, he could move Wang Feng to expose Jia Zhixian together. But I don't want to think about it, Wang Feng and Jia Zhixian have been in the same stream for many years, how can they be persuaded by a few words.
Now it is impossible to report Jia Zhixian, but it has involved his stepmother to stand up for himself. Fan Yu has nothing to worry about his safety, he just feels that he is sorry for his mother-in-law, Granny Li.
"Big lady, this gold bead is indeed a royal thing in the palace." Bao Zheng changed his words, but said: "But just this gold bead can't prove that the eldest lady is Concubine Li Chen." Even if the eldest lady is Concubine Li Chen, I am afraid that she is not the biological mother of today's official family. The biological mother of today's official family is known to the whole world, and she is the former emperor's Empress Zhang Xian Mingsu. It's only been a year since you died, how dare you pretend? ”
Only then did Gongsun Ce remember that the identity of the biological mother of the official family was known to everyone, and she was the late Empress Dowager Liu E, who was the first precedent of the Great Song Dynasty.
