"In that case, why don't I sell my father-in-law?" Shen Qingwan raised her eyes, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a determined smile.
Lin Quan really had a hint of ominous premonition, and he wanted to ignore it and was apprehensive: "What favor can Miss Shen have that she needs to be bought by a slave?" ”
The corners of Shen Qingwan's mouth hooked, in fact, from Lin Quanneng got into the carriage, he knew that the insistence in his heart was already on her side, as long as she worked harder, she could find out the news she wanted.
In fact, as long as she waited until she met Duan Yuyuan, she would know the news, but she wanted to talk about Lin De, but she never found a chance.
Moreover, if she doesn't ask here, it is abnormal.
What's more, Lin Quan unknowingly called himself a "slave" to her, which shows that he has lowered himself deep down.
If Lin Quan is arrogant and thinks from the bottom of his heart that she can't turn over, then this time the matter of entering the palace is really dangerous.
Shen Qingwan raised her eyebrows, lowered her head and played with the jade bracelet, and said casually: "There seems to be a little eunuch named Xiao Dezi next to my father-in-law?" ”
When Lin Quan heard this, his heart really clicked and he was heavy.
Shen Qingwan said a little slowly: "Last time in the palace, I seemed to see him walking very close to King Qin, this person is working next to his father-in-law, I don't know which side?" ”
Lin De is only called Xiao Dezi now, and Lin Quan is afraid that others will see something from the name, so he is very careful.
Therefore, even the emperor is not very clear about this situation for the time being.
Lin Quan's eyelids jumped: "Prince Qin is the master, Xiao Dezi is the slave, the master has orders, how dare the slave disobey?" ”
Having said that, Lin couldn't help but chill in his heart.
The corners of Shen Qingwan's mouth hooked: "That's what I said, it seems that I can't sell my favor, and my father-in-law won't accept it." ”
Lin Quan has been in the palace for so many years, and he is careful to survive in front of the emperor, so naturally it is impossible to trust Lin De so easily.
It took Lin De several years and saved Lin Quan several times before Lin Quan really believed him.
At this time, Lin Quan did not trust Lin De wholeheartedly, as long as there was wind and grass, he would definitely stir up his suspicions to the maximum.
Therefore, Shen Qing arrived later, there was no need to convince Lin Quan, as long as he was suspicious, he would be able to find more clues with Lin Quan's connections, and she didn't need to interfere at all.
After Lin Quan thought for a while, Shen Qingwan took out a silver ticket: "Why don't I use silver to buy my father-in-law's favor?" Anyway, if I enter the palace, I will know the situation, my father-in-law is just one step ahead of the situation, and it is only a quarter of an hour, which has nothing to do with my father-in-law. ”
Lin Quan smiled, this time he took Shen Qingwan's silver ticket, opened it and saw that it was five hundred taels, and couldn't help but sigh that these six young ladies were so generous.
Five hundred taels, it turned out to be just to buy a message? What's more, he also sent him a fatal message.
"Actually, it's not difficult to say, it's not easy to say it's simple, Concubine Liu had a miscarriage, but she said that Miss did it." Lin Quan really compromised, Xiao Dezi's matter was enough for him to capsize in the gutter.
Of course, the most important thing is that Shen Qingwan is right, as long as she enters the palace, she knows what has happened, why bother to form such a wrongdoer, there is still a King of Chu behind Shen Qingwan.
When such a thing happened, Lin Quan wanted to see what the King of Chu had towards Shen Qing's party?
"I did it?" Shen Qingwan felt a little confused, Concubine Liu had a miscarriage, what did it matter to her? She hasn't been in contact with Concubine Liu from beginning to end, okay?
"I want to know, how did this happen to me?" Shen Qing wondered late, these eight poles can't be hit by her? How much did you want to kill her behind the scenes?
It's a pity for Concubine Liu, there was no news at this time, but it turned out to be a miscarriage on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which was really bad enough.
"It means that Concubine Liu was relaxing in the small garden and met Miss Shen who was out of the palace, and Miss Shen had a handkerchief on Concubine Liu's body, which was infected with red flowers." Lin Quan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't believe that it was Shen Qingwan who did it.
Concubine Liu and Shen Qingwan have no conflict of interest, and if you really want to calculate people, you won't use such a straightforward means to be stupid enough to put yourself in.
"My handkerchief?" Shen Qingwan's eyes flashed, and she couldn't help but be a little weird: "I don't know who found this handkerchief, and then found out that it was mine?" ”
Lin Quan was immediately a little impressed by Shen Qingwan, and found the key point at the first time, no wonder he would use such a method to pry open his mouth and purely grasp his weakness.
First, he softened him with Xiao Dezi's news, which seemed to have failed to achieve his goal, but in fact he had succeeded. and then bribed with a silver ticket, and explained the interests of the relationship, so that even if he said the news, he would not be responsible, could he still not speak?
Thinking like this, Lin Quan sweated, only to find out that he had actually fallen into Shen Qingwan's trap, from the moment he entered the carriage, the initiative had always been on Shen Qingwan.
But when it came to this, he couldn't hide it anymore, Lin Quan could only speak helplessly: "It's Princess Jingyi, the handkerchief problem discovered by the imperial doctor, Princess Jingyi said that it was Miss." ”
Shen Qingwan raised her eyebrows, and was immediately relieved, it turned out to be Jingyi's idiot.
Therefore, no matter who caused Concubine Liu to have a miscarriage, Jingyi dug such a pit for her.
Shen Qing's evening eyes were shining, and he was prepared, this pit was indeed dug up, but who didn't know how to bury it in the end!
Seeing the confident smile on the corner of Shen Qingwan's mouth, Lin Quan suddenly felt that his choice might be right.
Selling well now is tantamount to giving yourself a way back.
This kind of thought converged at Duan Yuyuan at the gate of the palace and reached its highest point.
Duan Yuyuan directly participated in the merger, obviously not worrying about Shen Qing's lateness, if it was not a favorite, it would be nothing.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Lin Quan got out of the carriage in order to avoid suspicion and Duan Yuyuan appeared.
Duan Yuyuan drilled in: "Do you know what's going on?" He went back to the palace and got the news of the certainty.
Shen Qingwan nodded: "It's okay, Gonggong Lin has already said it just now." ”
Duan Yuyuan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shen Qingwan: "It's really amazing to be able to pry Lin Quan's mouth open." ”
Shen Qingwan sighed, the price she paid was not low, the favor was offset, the silver was spent, and sometimes Lin Quan was also greedy.
To tell the truth, Lin Quan has been by the emperor's side for so many years, and his net worth may be richer than that of a nouveau riche in the imperial court.
"The evidence is conclusive, what are you going to do?" Duan Yu is far from having a big package, knowing that Shen Qingwan's relaxed attitude must have a way to deal with it, he only needs to ensure the way back.
It is definitely the best policy to be able to get rid of oneself.
"Is this called evidence?" Shen Qingwan glanced at Duan Yuyuan: "If you really want to judge the case like this, how many unjust prisons do you have to create?" ”
Duan Yuyuan chuckled, feeling Shen Qingwan's determination even more, and immediately relieved.
"Do you know who it is?" Duan Yuyuan changed the subject, with a cold light in his eyes.
"Princess Jingyi." Shen Qingwan chuckled: "Or is it because of my cousin's matter?" I'm so wronged, and if I have a cousin in the future, I must ask for some benefits. However, this matter should be the princess's own idea, and Concubine De did not participate. ”
Duan Yuyuan chuckled: "That's true, you can see it before you meet?" ”
Shen Qingwan shook her head: "I just think that Concubine De is not so stupid, can she be convicted with a handkerchief?" Although Concubine De was one step to the sky and sat in this position, she did not waver after so many years, if she was too stupid, she would not be able to live now. ”
"Perhaps, Jingyi didn't think that she would be able to convict you like this." Duan Yuyuan was meaningful: "A handkerchief, it's just a trivial matter, with me, you won't be fine." ”
"She wants you to suffer a little, to intercede with you in your most difficult time, to make you grateful to her, or rather, to warn you that with her identity, it is easy to kill you."
Shen Qingwan was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect this, purely because she thought about human nature too complicated, and she didn't expect Princess Jingyi to involve her in this matter for such a simple reason.
It's like a child fighting, someone bullying someone with their identity, and coaxing you to be obedient with candy when it's over.
"Stupid, who killed Concubine Liu's child? If Princess Jingyi did it in order to frame me, it can only mean that she died by herself, and the emperor doesn't think it's a trivial matter, if it weren't for Princess Jingyi's move, she just wanted to frame me by the way, then it can only be said that she disrupted the direction of the investigation, there is no distinction between right and wrong, and the emperor is still disappointed in her. ”
Shen Qingwan sneered, if it weren't for Princess Jingyi's cruelty to Qiao Siwen in her previous life, which disappointed the emperor again and again, she would not have chosen her to marry.
The emperor has always been very fond of Concubine De's daughter.
"It should just be by the way, she doesn't have the ability to calculate Concubine Liu's child yet." Duan Yu is far from despising Jingyi, unless Concubine De makes a move, otherwise she really doesn't have that kind of ability.
After that, Lu did not speak, and the two were silent until the place.
In order to be in a hurry, she didn't get out of the carriage after entering the palace, and Shen Qingwan rarely enjoyed the treatment of not having to walk once.
Shen Qing got out of the carriage late and looked up to see the plaque of Fengqi Palace, he had lived here for several years, and he felt very delicate.
Concubine Liu had a miscarriage and rested in her own palace, and everyone interrogated Concubine Liang's Fengqi Palace, and there were many people present.
The nine concubines and above are all here, including the emperor.
Concubine Liang sat next to the emperor, and for the first time looked seriously at the side concubine of the King of Chu, how could she get involved in something that obviously had nothing to do with it, she was also a little confused.
Concubine De, Concubine Xian, Concubine Liang sat aside, Princess Jingyi was beside Concubine De, looking at Shen Qingwan proudly, waiting for this woman to be frightened and ask for forgiveness.
Concubine De glanced back at Princess Jingyi, with coldness and warning, just now Princess Jingyi said that the handkerchief on Concubine Liu's body was Shen Qingwan, and even she was startled.
This matter has nothing to do with her, if Jing Yi participates in it, it will be jumping into it by herself.
And as long as you are not stupid, you can see that Princess Jingyi is framing Shen Qingwan, think about what happened to Gu Ci a while ago, who still doesn't understand?
Although she didn't say it explicitly at the beginning, Princess Jingyi got the news about Gu Ci, just to stop other noble girls from robbing people.
Hate for Jingyi, iron does not become steel, and now that Shen Qingwan has been called for questioning, it is no longer possible to shirk it, and she has caused a commotion for no reason, and Concubine De's face is not very good-looking.
The position of the nine concubines is not complete, there are only seven, including Concubine De.
At the same time, how many princes are actually there?
Shen Qingwan glanced at the door and found that the big man was quite complete, knowing that Duan Yuyuan must have left early again.
Several princes haven't left yet, but they just happened to meet this stubble, so they will naturally come together to watch the excitement.
The emperor looked at Duan Yuyuan and Shen Qingwan in surprise and vaguely, the King of Chu, who had already left, would rush over? Regardless of their body?
The emperor suddenly realized the problem, and looked at the two of them without a trace, as if he had thought of something else.
"The courtiers meet the emperor." Shen Qing knelt down in the evening: "Meet Concubine Liang, as well as all the mothers, princes, and Jin An." ”
The corners of the other people watching the play twitched, and it was the first time they had met so many people packing up to say goodbye.
However, the emperor was present, and there was no obvious mistake in Shen Qingwan's doing.
The emperor was silent for a while, and even let Shen Qingwan dry for a while, so that she maintained the posture of kowtowing and did not scream.
Duan Yuyuan just sat down, straightened his back when he saw this, and looked at the emperor with displeasure.
The emperor took his reaction into his eyes, his eyes turned cold, and then he slowly spoke: "Get up and talk back." ”
"Your Majesty." Shen Qing sighed late, although she hadn't seen the emperor a few times, but since she saw her for the first time in the draft, the emperor's tone had never been so bad.
Is this disgruntled with her? Not so much!
Concubine Liu's matter, did the emperor convict her in his heart? If you're not blind, you know it can't be her!
But why is the emperor's attitude suddenly so indifferent?
In the process of Shen Qingwan standing up, he thought of a lot of possibilities, concubine? Excuses? Or something else? Do you always feel a little inexplicable about this change? Sure enough, the Sacred Heart is unfathomable.
Finding the change in the emperor's attitude, Shen Qing's heart sank, and he stood in the hall more respectfully, bowing his head and pretending to be harmless.
"Look at this handkerchief, do you have an impression?" The emperor went straight to the topic and did not say much.
Duan Yuyuan's heart froze, and he looked at the emperor several times, and he also found that the emperor's attitude towards Shen Qingwan had changed, full of temptation and coldness.
It also means that the emperor will probably not be on Shen Qingwan's side in the whole matter, and maybe he will be biased and quiet.
Duan Yuyuan lowered his eyes, I don't know if Shen Qingwan has counted this? The emperor's eccentricity can definitely affect the ending, and if the way of questioning is different, it is likely to wrap himself around.
He was so relieved just now, that is, he knew that the emperor had a certain degree of partiality towards Shen Qingwan, and it could be seen from Lin Quan that he went to bring people into the palace, and now it was obviously the other way around.
In the short time that Lin Quan went to take Shen Qing into the palace, what happened to make the emperor change his impression?
Duan Yuyuan looked at everyone, obviously there was no clue, which made him puzzled.
Hearing the emperor's question, Shen Qingwan confirmed his feelings, although he didn't know what was happening, he became more cautious.
The emperor's partiality is actually useful, and some preconceived notions can make the argument and evidence appear stronger.
Now that there is no amulet, Shen Qingwan needs to be careful, he can't be spared.
If the emperor still has a partiality for her, he will not ask such a question, and will say "This handkerchief is not yours", and if he denies it, it is easy to show that he is not suspicious.
However, the emperor only asked if she had any impression, and did not ask by name if it was hers, if she was in a hurry to get out and directly said that it was not her own, then the suspicion increased.
After all, the emperor didn't say it was yours, so why are you in a hurry to deny it?
Having dealt with the emperor many times in his previous life, he was relatively familiar with the emperor's way of thinking and language traps, Shen Qingwan instantly figured out the key, and his fingers were a little cold.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Qingwan took a closer look at the handkerchief spread out on the tray, and motioned to the little eunuch to turn it over, from beginning to end, let alone the handkerchief, Shen Qingwan didn't even touch the tray.
Seeing this, a touch of surprise flashed in Concubine Liang's eyes, she was really a cautious little girl.
Other people who understood Shen Qingwan's meaning couldn't help but look her up and down, and instantly felt that this Miss Shen Jiayan was very different, could this be the reason why King Chu could be so favored?
The little eunuch was very clever and did not dare to move casually, looked at the emperor, and only turned the handkerchief over with tacit approval.
With the eyes of the eunuch, Shen Qingwan also glanced at the emperor, with suspicion and thought.
The emperor kowtowed his eyelids, covering up the emotions in his eyes, making it difficult to see.
Shen Qingwan didn't dare to look at it more, his eyes fell on the handkerchief, and he knew it.
"Back to the emperor, the courtiers have no impression." Shen Qingwan said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
The emperor does have language traps, but most of the time as long as he answers the question itself, it is no problem, not too much thought, not too much thought, less words and fewer mistakes can be avoided.
Therefore, Shen Qingwan's answer was very direct, and he did not express his opinions randomly, and did not insinuate who this handkerchief belonged to, or justified that it was not his own.
The emperor paused, he couldn't find a point to refute at all, and suddenly felt that Shen Qing slipped and didn't leave his hand, and his eyes looked at her even more meaningful.
Shen Qingwan knew that this would arouse the emperor's vigilance, and might even attract Concubine Liang's interest, but instead of being forced to admit that the handkerchief was hers step by step, Shengsheng put the black pot of Concubine Liu's miscarriage on her head, and finally had to be saved by Duan Yuyuan as a prince.
Shen Qingwan is more inclined to prove his innocence with facts, if he really has to bear such a charge, how much Duan Yuyuan spoils her in the future, how much he ruins his own reputation.
She is not afraid of facing the emperor, and she has not been against her in her previous life.
Later in the previous life, the emperor discovered the ambitions and actions of King Qin, and also discovered Concubine De's calculations, so it was not fun to be hostile.
The emperor is really not as shrewd as when he was young, not without weaknesses.
Therefore, knowing that the emperor doesn't like women who are too smart and shrewd, but now that he has a coldness, he is afraid that this matter will be very inappropriate for her in the future, and Shen Qingwan also chose to be sharp without hesitation.
Even the reason for the emperor's change of attitude has not yet been discovered, let alone a solution to be relaxed.
Even if the emperor is temporarily let down his guard, it may not last for a few days.
But if this black cauldron is carried back, it will affect the lives of her and Duan Yuyuan, and rehabilitation, it is not enough to eliminate all the bad consequences, no matter how it is calculated, it will not be worth it.
Therefore, Shen Qingwan was respectful on the surface, but in fact she was not afraid, and countless pairs of eyes looked at her with a hint of stunned.
Concubine Liang's eyes lit up, and then a hint of pity flashed, and she glanced at Duan Yuyuan with an inexplicable expression.
King Qin's eyes were already surging, and he had a little more understanding of Shen Qingwan's calmness, calmness and clarity, but he didn't want this kind of understanding.
Every time he saw Shen Qingwan a little more amazing, he regretted it a little more, obviously he was the person he took a fancy to first, obviously before the marriage, King Chu didn't feel that this woman was different.
Just these faces he saw were enough, what was Shen Qing's party like in private, King Qin really didn't want to think about it, he was afraid that after he thought about it, he would rob people desperately.
