Chapter 502: An Unexpected Betrayal (Part II)
"In the final analysis, it's because the mourning family is old and can't manage the harem for the emperor."
"The queen mother's words made her sons really ashamed, they should have enjoyed their lives in peace, but they still worked hard about the affairs of the harem."
The Queen Mother sighed,
"What's not to worry about, fortunately, I have seen these things for a lifetime, the emperor continues to inquire, and the mourning family is listening."
"Yes."
Yuan Ruiming's head,
It is true that he was in trouble because of the Queen Mother's sudden arrival, no matter what before, he could ignore all the evidence with his trust in Bai Jingyin, but now that the Queen Mother is here, I'm afraid it will not be so simple.
The event continues,
"Is there any other evidence to prove it other than what you said before?"
"Your Majesty, there is evidence of humiliation."
Hearing him say this, there was an uproar in the Linlang Hall again,
Yuan Ruiming's eyes sank,
Things are really more complicated than he imagined, and what development will go depends on what kind of evidence he will come up with.
Guard Zhou raised his head, looked at Bai Jingyin with a blue nose and swollen face, pointed to his face and said:
"One of them is the appearance of lowly office."
"The mourning family just heard that you are sure that it was the hands of the people in Qionghua Palace?"
"That's just the way it is." Zhou Weiwei said firmly, "Because there is only one friend in the palace, and he is kind to his humble position, so he would rather bear the crime of deception without reporting it, and he really can't report it. After all, if it continues like this, Skynet will be restored and will not leak, and sooner or later it will be broken. At that time, I don't know how the concubine Niangniang was lowly, but her humble brother Zhang Huaiyi was bound to die. Fang Cai humbly admitted that he had been to Qionghua Palace, and it was because of this, not what the concubine said. ”
Originally, it was said that it would be good to listen to it from the side,
But involuntarily interrogated,
"One fact, two different statements and reasons, is really tortuous and bizarre. Concubine Jing, do you have anything to refute, the mourning family also wants to hear what you have to say. ”
"Empress Dowager Qi, I just think that Zhou Guard's rhetoric is ridiculous and vulnerable."
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows,
"Oh? Concubine Jing was sure. ”
"According to Zhou Guard, he knew about my personal relationship with Zhang Huaiyi, and then came to persuade me to get lost? It's a joke, to put it bluntly, he's just a guard, where did he get the courage and qualifications to persuade me, and dare to say these things to me as a concubine, aren't you afraid that I will be angry and ashamed, or kill people because I am afraid that the matter will be revealed. At least in my opinion, it is an unwritten code of conduct for the palace to protect one's self, and as for Zhou Guard's 'death as home' action, how credible it can be, you can imagine. ”
Bai Jingyin spoke loudly and retorted mercilessly.
"If you change to someone else, you will naturally not dare to be humble."
Zhou Guards didn't even think about it,
After Bai Jingyin finished saying that, he immediately responded, as if he had prepared in advance:
"Just because I always heard Zhang Huaiyi privately praise Niangniang's background, several times to resolve the crisis for the Great Apocalypse, martial arts strategy and courage are not lost to men, these are also obvious to all, and on weekdays in the palace is also easy-going, I think that the concubine Niangniang is different from others, she can listen to the persuasion of humble words, so she will stop." Zhou Guard sneered, "But who knew that those were just appearances, Concubine Jing became angry after hearing this, and threatened that if she dared to divulge half a sentence, she would directly take her life." ”
The Queen Mother looked at his 'miserable' face,
Slowly frowned,
"If Concubine Jing starts, she can really hit it so badly."
"I don't think it's clear who these injuries came from, and it is not known if they were planted for them."
"It's too obvious for the emperor to look at that girl."
The Queen Mother lowered her voice and reminded in a voice that only the two of them could hear, after all, as an emperor, there really shouldn't be such an obvious bias.
"Erchen believes in her."
Yuan Ruiming looked at Bai Jingyin, and said to the Queen Mother quietly, although it was a simple sentence, he showed his attitude.
The Queen Mother shook her head,
It is even more determined that Bai Jingyin must not stay in the palace, whether he will be convicted this time or not.
"What the emperor said is also reasonable, this is indeed weak as evidence. However, Zhou Guards only said 'one of them', which means that there is also 'two'? ”
"Empress Dowager Qi, in addition to what you know and see, there are also key physical evidence, and the specific situation has been explained to the imperial concubine and Lord Li last night."
At this moment, the people of Dali Temple happened to walk into the hall quickly, and after saluting according to the rules, they handed over the things in their hands to Li Dian, and whispered a few words.
Li Dian's face was slightly different, he took it in his hand, glanced at the object, walked up to the front of the hall and said to Yuan Ruiming and the Queen Mother:
"After the lower officials interrogated Zhou's guards at night, they took Zhang Huaiyi back to Dali Temple for interrogation early this morning, and sent people to conduct a detailed search of the guards and the hot spring courtyard.
Speaking of which,
Put the things you just brought in on the tray and have your father-in-law present them.
Yuan Ruiming looked at it, and saw three items on the tray: a silk handkerchief, a folded letter, and a bag of powder that I couldn't tell what it was. On the surface, there seems to be no way to connect the dots.
The Queen Mother took the silk handkerchief, unfolded it, and embroidered an embroidered mandarin duck on the pale yellow satin, the embroidery was crooked, and it took a lot of effort to barely see that it was a mandarin duck instead of a duck.
"There is really no embroidery at all, such a clumsy stitch does not look like a thing in the palace."
Said mercilessly.
"Guard Zhou, is this what you call 'the second'?"
"Back to the Queen Mother's words, I often saw Zhang Huaiyi holding a yellow silk handkerchief in his hand, holding it in his hand like a treasure and never reluctant to use it, and often talking to himself to the handkerchief, and guessing that it must be a token of love given by Concubine Jing. After explaining this matter to the imperial concubine Niangniang and Lord Li, I didn't expect it to be really searched. ”
Yuan Ruiming glanced at the silk handkerchief,
Judging from the degree of ugliness,
It is indeed from the hand of Bai Jingyin, which is very easy to recognize......
Although I was sure in my heart, I still said:
"Whether it is from Concubine Jing or not, it is still unknown."
"The concubine was also afraid that she had wronged Concubine Jing, so when she went to 'invite' Concubine Jing, she took the rest of the embroidery from Qionghua Palace to compare the stitches. As we all know, the Queen Mother's female red needle is a must for the public, whether it comes from the same person, it is necessary to trouble the Queen Mother to distinguish. ”
