Chapter 153: Clearing
It seems that today is another big drama that Concubine Jing prepared for herself, Du Ruonan thought to herself.
"What kind of ghost can I have in my heart, it's a ghost in your heart, obviously everyone has already stolen and obtained, and you are still here to force words, is it interesting for you to do this?"
Concubine Jing saw that Du Ruonan actually rebelled against her army, and immediately retorted.
"Since Concubine Jing has already decided that it is me, and she is very confident in her evidence, what if you give me two hours?"
Du Ruonan asked repeatedly.
"The emperor's time is so precious, how can you delay the emperor's time for two hours for such a trivial matter, you can't help but think too highly of yourself."
Concubine Jing said disdainfully.
"Your Majesty, please also give the people two hours to prove their innocence."
Du Ruonan no longer quarreled with Concubine Jing, but looked at the emperor on the side, the final decision was in the hands of this man, and Du Ruonan's life was also in the hands of this man.
If he chooses to believe Concubine Jing's words, Du Ruonan will not be able to escape today's cane punishment, and her life will not be guaranteed.
And if he chooses to give Du Ruonan two hours, then Du Ruonan still has a chance to live, of course, it is only possible, if Du Ruonan can't find evidence to prove that she is innocent, then she is still a capital crime.
It's just two more hours to live.
"Don't quarrel anymore, Du Ruonan, I'll give you two hours, if you can't prove that you didn't steal it, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
The emperor said to Du Ruonan with a smile.
"Okay Wan'er, it's just to give her two hours, if it's really her, she can't run, why are you in a hurry, it's really as she said......
After saying it to Du Ruonan, the emperor comforted Concubine Jing who was reluctant on the side.
"Your Majesty, how can you listen to her side of the story? You're so busy, isn't the concubine worried about wasting your time on such a trivial matter? ”
Concubine Jing said weakly.
"It's okay, I happened to have nothing to do today, I originally planned to accompany you and make up for not accompanying you a few days ago, but now that something like this has happened, I will naturally make the decision for you."
The emperor chatted with Concubine Jing and looked at Du Ruonan at the same time.
I saw Du Ruonan squatting on the ground and didn't move, I don't know what kind of fame she is doing, only Du Ruonan herself knows, she has no choice.
To say that this was arranged in advance by Concubine Jing is also unreasonable, after all, if she hadn't been witty yesterday, it is very likely that she would have been planted in that matter.
And Concubine Jing swore so much at the time, she must have felt that one thing was enough for her to never turn over, how could she frame herself again.
And she was worried last night that Concubine Jing was likely to be detrimental to herself if she left herself, so she didn't rest much last night, occasionally took a nap, and fell asleep lightly, if someone came in, she would definitely be able to find out.
From this point of view, this pair of jade bracelets must not have been hidden in the room where Concubine Jing sent someone to hide them last night.
Since neither of these times were the case, it was only this morning that the pair of jade bracelets were put in. But what about the evidence? Du Ruonan's head was already a little dizzy at this time.
She didn't have a good rest last night, and she was still struggling under the arrest of the guards just now, so she was very uncomfortable at this time, which also affected her judgment.
"Now it seems that this jade bracelet can only be put in my room this morning, who put it in such a short time?"
Du Ruonan muttered to himself. Then Du Ruonan unconsciously looked at his shoes, because there was still dew when he got up this morning, so there was some mud on his shoes.
Then the people who came to their rooms today to put things must have mud on the soles of their feet, and if they are lucky, there are still footprints of murderers in their rooms.
Du Ruonan's eyes lit up and he hurriedly rushed to the room.
Soon, Du Ruonan was disappointed. There are indeed shoe prints in the room, but there is more than one, and the shoe prints inside are messy, presumably the shoe prints of the palace maid who came in just now.
It seems that there is no hope of finding clues on the shoe prints, Du Ruonan sighed, it seems that he was happy too early.
"Du Ruonan, two hours are coming."
Concubine Jing reminded on the side that she was still a little worried at first, but later she was relieved to see Du Ruonan's actions.
As soon as Concubine Jing said this, Du Ruonan's heart also began to be anxious, she didn't expect two hours to pass so quickly, but she was still at a loss.
"Your Majesty, the people's daughter has found evidence."
Suddenly, Du Ruonan thought of something, and said to the emperor excitedly, and then her eyes unconsciously looked at the shoes worn by the maids, although the footprints in the room were disorganized, and she couldn't tell who framed her, but she still glanced at it.
"What about the evidence?"
The emperor saw that Du Ruonan was empty-handed and didn't take anything, where did the evidence come from.
"Please also ask the emperor to come in with me, I am afraid that this evidence will not be able to be held with the strength of the people's daughter."
Du Ruonan said confidently, of course, there is also a trace of happiness for the rest of her life, if she hadn't suddenly thought of this matter at the last moment, she would really have a hard time arguing today.
"Du Ruonan, don't beat around the bush, hurry up and take out the evidence."
Concubine Jing said impatiently, Concubine Jing looked at the room where there was nothing, and she really couldn't think of where Du Ruonan's so-called evidence was.
"The pair of jade bracelets that Concubine Jing lost just now were found here." 139
Du Ruonan looked at Mei'er and asked, because she took it out here.
Everyone nodded, no one knew what kind of medicine Du Ruonan was selling in this gourd.
"Your Majesty, please also instruct the guards to let him push the bed back."
Du Ruonan said to the emperor.
"You go over and push the bed back."
The emperor didn't ask Du Ruonan the reason, and directly ordered one of the several guards who had escorted Du Ruonan just now to do this matter. I saw that this guard had pushed hard for a long time in the past, and the bed moved slightly.
"Okay, don't push it, Your Majesty, you have also seen it, even such a big man is so laborious to push this bed, let alone a people's daughter?"
Du Ruonan said with a smile, she felt that this was enough to explain that the thing was not hidden by her.
"You are arguing, maybe you have other ways, this does not mean that you did not steal it."
Mei'er said anxiously.
"Then let me ask you, what is my purpose in stealing Concubine Jing's jade bracelet?"
Du Ruonan asked Mei'er calmly, and then looked at Mei'er's shoes, if she was eight points sure just now, then now she is completely sure.
"Of course, it's out of the palace, as for what you want to do when you take it out, only you know."
Mei'er said disdainfully.
"That's right, that's what I want, since my purpose in stealing it is to take it out of the palace, then why am I hiding here, aren't I making trouble for myself?"
Du Ruonan looked at Mei'er with a smile.
"Maybe you won't be able to use your hands at all?"
Mei'er thought that this matter was explained to her by Concubine Jing, if Du Ruonan escaped like this, she was afraid that she would also be punished by Concubine Jing, so she hurriedly found a reason at this time.
"Actually, speaking of which, I'm also a little strange, let alone taking it out, even how to put this jade bracelet in, I haven't thought of a way yet?"
Du Ruonan pretended to be stupid and said, she said this just to lure Mei'er to leak herself.
"It's not easy."
Mei'er said nonchalantly, and then began to demonstrate how to put the jade bracelet in it. Concubine Jing always felt that something was wrong, but it was too late to stop it.
"Presumably the emperor has already made a decision in his heart now."
Seeing Mei'er's demonstration, Du Ruonan no longer paid attention to Mei'er, but looked at the emperor, the goal she wanted had been achieved.
"Bold Mei'er, why did you steal Wan'er's jade bracelet."
The emperor questioned Mei'er.
"Meier is wronged."
As soon as Mei'er heard that the emperor actually said that she had stolen it herself, she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, she really didn't think that she had exposed her feet, so that the emperor thought that it was the jade bracelet of Concubine Jing that she had taken.
"Bold Mei'er, you still dare to deceive me, you still don't admit it at this time, are you old and confused?"
The emperor was furious, and Mei'er trembled when she heard it, and she didn't dare to speak again.
"And you and I must have been the ones who came to this room the most today, so we have more dirt on our shoes than anyone else's, and you dare to say that you didn't steal it this morning?"
Du Ruonan added on the side, although she couldn't tell who framed her by the footprints in the room, she could see something on Mei'er's shoes.
"Pull it out and replay the twenty boards."
The emperor said impatiently, and it could be heard from the emperor's words that the emperor was still very sure of proportion, and he couldn't kill Mei'er, but punished her again.
"The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life, Concubine Jing, please help me plead for mercy."
At the moment when her life was at stake, where could Mei'er take care of so much, begging for mercy like the emperor, and at the same time asking Concubine Jing to intercede for herself.
"Why don't you do it yet?"
The emperor said very displeased.
"And you, how to manage your subordinate maids, you can't even manage your own maids, how can I rest assured that I will hand over the harem to you to take care of. Seven days of grounding and reflecting. ”
After teaching Mei'er a lesson, the emperor began to scold Concubine Jing again.
"The Emperor's ......"
When Concubine Jing heard that the emperor was so cruel to herself, she thought that she would hurry up and say a few good words, so that she would not have to suffer.
"Needless to say, I've made up my mind."
The emperor didn't listen to Concubine Jing at all, and there was no doubt about the affirmation between the words. Concubine Jing looked at Du Ruonan unkindly, she was punished today because of this woman.
Even the queen is not her opponent, she has repeatedly hit a wall in front of this woman, how can Concubine Jing be convinced, and her heart is full of dissatisfaction.
