Chapter 158: Above the Court

Xichen Palace.

Wang Meng and Li Ya looked at the burned house, followed Li Ya's side with complicated expressions, and asked Li Ya to order the burned house to be cleaned up, and then temporarily moved into the auxiliary hall.

In the deputy hall, when he saw the concubines of the harem coming to ask for peace, Wang Meng couldn't help but hold his forehead.

Let a person who has nothing to do with the Wang family and has a humble status become the queen, Mrs. Wang and Wang Yan actually did it and dared to do it?

With the invitation of An, Wang Meng looked at the concubines who asked for An, and then found that the concubines on the throne and those concubines with strong family backgrounds did not come to ask for An, so he signaled to Li Ya.

"What about the others?" Li Ya asked.

Suddenly, the concubines who asked for peace below were embarrassed and uncomfortable.

"Speak!" Li Ya urged.

"Everyone else went to the Imperial Concubine Niangniang's Fengzao Palace." After a concubine finished speaking, she immediately lowered her head.

Wang Meng sighed in his heart, and immediately knew that about Li Ya's identity, everyone else must have already known, those concubines would rather go to the imperial concubine like the daughter of Zhenbei Hou, whose father has deceased, to ask for peace, rather than come to Xichen Palace to suffer this humiliation, and among them, there are also people in the original regent lineage, so Wang Meng knows that the matter is more serious than imagined.

Wang Meng was silent for a moment, then motioned to Li Ya to let these concubines retreat.

As soon as those concubines left Xichen Palace, they immediately went to Fengzao Palace, in Fengzao Palace, the four concubines sat under the imperial concubine, and the other concubines also sat one by one, although they didn't talk much, but the atmosphere was not sharp.

Su Qing wanted to keep these concubines, so she occasionally said a few words, and Liang Lian'er and Mu Zi'er realized Su Qing's thoughts and chatted with other people.

No matter what the other concubines think, they have to deal with it.

A few times he talked about things in the boudoir, and everyone gradually chatted, and at this time, the eunuchs around the emperor came to deliver the decree, saying that they were inviting Su Qing to go to the court.

"To the court? But what happened? Su Qing raised her eyebrows lightly.

Since ancient times, there have been few things that let the harem go to the previous dynasty, and the other concubines also looked at it curiously when they heard this.

The eunuch didn't answer, but said, "The slave doesn't know, but the mother will know when she goes." ”

"Hongu knows." Su Qing responded.

She got together, and the other concubines also got up, and Su Qing said when she saw this: "You don't have to be so restrained, and continue to play, go and have a look in this palace." ”

In the previous dynasty, Su Qing followed the eunuch into the court, and his expression was faint.

She has always wanted to enter the court, but she never thought that standing in the court for the first time in her life would be like this.

"Love, you come to my side." When Murong An saw Su Qing, he immediately said to Su Qing.

Su Qing first gave Murong An a salute, and after seeing the salute, he sat down under the dragon chair and looked at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military condescendingly, and at this time, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military courtesy to Su Qing.

Su Qing bowed slightly, and when he saw that the people below didn't speak, he looked at the emperor and asked softly: "Your Majesty, the slave sent a decree to let the palace come to the court, I don't know what happened?" ”

"I brought you here because Lord Wang said that you were not a ghost, set fire to Xichen Palace, and imprisoned her daughter, who is now the queen mother." Murong An said lightly, when he looked at Su Qing in front of him, he tried his best to hide his friendship for his lover, so that his eyes seemed to be spoiled, but they seemed to be full of calculations.

Su Qing's expression did not move, and when he heard the words, he just looked at Lord Wang lightly and said with a smile: "Lord Wang is well informed about the news of the harem. The fire that started last night, the concubines in the harem don't know about it yet, Lord Wang knows it clearly, and the charges are all thought out for the palace. ”

"Imperial concubine, the minister knows that the minister's daughter is in your way, but you can't be so vicious and set fire to kill people, right?" Lord Wang said with a sad face.

"Set fire? Xichen Palace did catch fire yesterday, but Lord Wang said that I set the fire, is it over? And then murder? Who did Hongu kill? Su Qing asked lightly, when he looked at Lord Wang, he showed a little coldness and impatience, and his eyes turned to look at the regent.

The regent was also looking at Su Qing at the moment, the two of them looked at each other, and the regent's eyebrows were lazy and cold.

"It was my daughter's maidservant, who escaped from the palace overnight, and told me that my mother had set fire to my two daughters, and ah, my poor daughter......" said the king, howling with grief on his face.

Su Qing looked at Lord Wang, the corners of her lips rose, revealing a sneer: "Lord Wang should pay attention to what he says, the queen mother and the second miss of the Wang family, now they are well, gathered in the Xichen Palace, when the concubine met in the morning, I saw it with my own eyes, why did you open your mouth and these two people died?" ”

Lord Wang was stunned and looked up at Su Qing.

Su Qing looked at Lord Wang lightly, "Originally, this matter only involved the harem, and the palace did not intend to disturb the emperor, since Lord Wang mentioned it, it is better to ask the emperor to judge." ”

After speaking, Su Qing turned his head to look at the master, and said softly: "Your Majesty, last night Xichen Palace was on fire, caught a few eunuchs, and after some interrogation, I found that these eunuchs were ordered by Lord Wang and were ordered to set fire to the queen mother and the second lady of the Wang family, because this matter is related to the queen mother's father, so the concubine handed over the matter to the queen mother, the concubine really doesn't know, what does Lord Wang mean?" The daughter is fine, but if she wants to say that her daughter is dead, the matter is almost not verified, if you are a servant girl, you will be convicted of the concubine! ”

What's the situation?

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty exchanged views with each other, and they all looked at Lord Wang, and even the regent also looked over.

Although the regent didn't like Su Qing, he still knew a little bit about Su Qing's relationship with Chongmingwan, and knew that this girl was very smart, and she was definitely not the kind of person who set fire to people and left the evidence of the crime, so he looked at Lord Wang at the moment.

"Someone, go summon the queen." Murong An commanded.

Lord Wang looked up at Su Qing, and saw that Su Qing's eyebrows were faint, and his expression did not change at all, and his heart chuckled.

What's going on? Didn't the maid say last night that she had seen two bodies burned to death?

After a while, the queen was also invited to the main hall, because she didn't get guidance, Li Ya arrived a little dazed, and it caused an uproar as soon as she arrived.

"Who is this?" Captain Yun asked.

yes, who is this?

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all looked at Li Ya and frowned.

The juniors of each family, everyone may not know the concubine, but the concubine and the concubine have seen some of them, and this Li Ya's temperament and appearance, no matter who looks at it, it is by no means a noble daughter of a big family.

"Your Majesty, the minister once saw Lord Wang's concubine in Lord Wang's home, this one is not Lord Wang's concubine!" Captain Yun looked at Li Ya and frowned.

The other people in the court who got the news from their own daughter all looked sunk, and they all spoke: "Your Majesty, this is not the daughter of the Wang family!" ”
