Seeing this, Ah Ruan didn't dare to continue to say anything, so he had to nod his head in response.

The slave hurriedly walked into the palace, and saw Ye Hao sitting on the chaise longue in a robe.

"The slave and maid have no choice but to disturb the concubine Niangniang, and ask the concubine to atone for her sins." The slave knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Looking at the uneasy appearance of the slave maid, she couldn't help frowning and shouting: "But what happened, why are you so panicked, and there are no rules at all?" ”

"Please also ask the concubine to atone for her sins." The slave knelt on the ground with a terrified look on her face.

"Say it." Ye Hao lowered her eyes and took a sip of the teacup.

"Back to Niangniang, Cuilan, who was imprisoned in the small kitchen, wanted to escape, but was knocked out by the guards." The slave knelt on the ground and replied word by word.

Hearing this, Ye Hao's face changed slightly, put the teacup in his hand on the table, and scolded: "But what happened?" ”

"Please also ask the mother to calm her anger, now Cuilan has woken up." The slave whispered.

"Bring her here, this palace has something to ask her." Ye Hao commanded softly.

"Yes."

Don't dare to delay, the slave maid immediately nodded in response, turned around and retreated.

A moment later, several guards carried the half-dead Cuilan to the hall and threw her at Ye Hao's feet.

"Ahem......"

Cuilan's body fell heavily on the ground, and she gasped and coughed violently in pain.

After being imprisoned in the small kitchen for a few days, not allowing the slightest rumor to leak the news, Cuilan was already tortured and haggard, her unkempt little face was filthy, and her eyes were full of chaos, looking half-dead.

After she coughed for a long time, she raised her eyes groggily to look in front of her.

"Please also ask the mother to atone for her sins." Cuilan said weakly, as if she was hanging for her life with only one breath left.

"This palace asked you why you sneaked up in the cold palace that day?" Ye Zhen stared at Cuilan at her feet and asked in a deep voice.

"The slave and maid met by chance, but I didn't know that the concubine would pass by here, and asked the lady to atone for her sins."

Still the same words as before, Cuilan begged for mercy weakly.

"It's nonsense, you don't dare to tell the truth when you die."

Ah Ruan on the side scolded in a deep voice, staring at Cuilan coldly.

However, Ye Hao's face was cold, she looked at Cuilan with cold eyes, and scolded in a deep voice: "You were originally a little palace maid in the imperial dining room, and as the eldest sister in the family, you have elderly parents under your knees, don't you say it?" ”

The threatening tone in the words was not small, Ye Hao's face was cold, and she looked at Cuilan coldly.

Immediately, Cuilan's face changed slightly, and her eyes were full of weakness, but she still bit her mouth and refused to admit it: "The slave doesn't know anything......

She shook her head and didn't answer.

Ah Ruan, who was anxious on the side, frowned and looked at Cuilan, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't answer again, will the concubine Niangniang forgive you?" ”

The palace suddenly fell silent, and the surrounding atmosphere became eerie, making people fall into an ice cellar like a chill.

"You don't have to say it, but as the eldest son in the family, you have to think more about your family in everything." Ye Hao's face did not change, and Yun said a sentence lightly.

In just a moment, Cuilan's face changed greatly, her hands slowly clenched into fists, biting her lip but never saying a word, "......"

"Do you recognize the concubine in the cold palace?" Ye Hao's eyes sank, and she asked in a deep voice as she stared at Cuilan.

I saw Cuilan's body trembling slightly, her eyes flickering, as if her heart was weak, kneeling on the ground motionless.

Seeing that she still didn't speak, Ah Ruan became a little impatient, and scolded sharply: "A concubine in a cold palace has long been out of the emperor's favor, if you follow Concubine Li, you will really be blind." "Worry-free love book network

Who knew that Ah Ruan's casual words immediately made Cuilan roar angrily: "Concubine Li is a good person, treat slaves and maids as if they were their own......"

As soon as the words fell, Cuilan's face changed greatly, she knew that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly closed her mouth.

But this scene fell into Ye Hao's eyes, her face was cold, and she asked in a deep voice: "No wonder you go to the cold palace, isn't it Concubine Li's acquaintance?" Or are you just a slave who is waiting for her? ”

The words were broken, Cuilan had nothing to say, her eyes were full of panic, and she didn't dare to look directly into Ye Hao's eyes.

"Do you dare not tell the truth until now?" Ye Hao asked in a cold voice.

Her clear eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, which made people feel cold.

Cuilan knelt on the ground and just lowered her head, her eyes couldn't help but redden, and she bit her lip and choked a few times.

"What is the concubine asking you, why are you crying?"

I didn't see Cuilan say anything for a long time, and immediately Ah Ruan looked unhappy and reprimanded sharply.

"This palace once heard that Concubine Li had a dispute with Xian Zhaoyi earlier, and she was beaten into the cold palace by the emperor?" Ye Hao's face was cold, and she asked in a deep voice.

Finally, Cuilan cried a few times, then raised her head and cried: "Concubine Li is not as unbearable as Xian Zhaoyi said, it is clear that Xian Zhaoyi can't see that Concubine Li is beautiful, so she will ask the emperor to send her into the cold palace." ”

Since Cui Lan said Li Concubine in her mouth, she thinks that she is also a person related to Li Concubine.

Thinking of this, Ye Hao's eyes sank, and she asked in a cold voice: "When Concubine Li entered the cold palace, you became harmful to Xian Zhaoyi?" ”

"Xian Zhaoyi's poisoning is also related to you?" Ye Hao asked in a cold voice.

Having said this, it is not difficult to guess that Cuilan in front of her is a slave who was once blessed by Concubine Li, but now she has a heart of harm in order to avenge Concubine Li.

"She deserves it, whoever lets her be reckless in the palace by virtue of being the emperor's childhood sweetheart." Cuilan's face sank, and she reprimanded disdainfully.

"Did you know that framing a concubine has always been a capital offense?"

Immediately, Ye Hao asked in a deep voice, looking coldly at Cuilan who was kneeling on the ground.

However, Cuilan didn't even frown, and her little face was full of resentment, "She deserves it." ”

"Presumptuous, murdering the little master in the palace, your slave and maid are dying."

Ah Ruan, who was standing beside him, scolded with a look of shame.

However, Ye Hao waved her hand to signal her to retreat, Ye Hao sat on a high position, staring at Cuilan with lowered eyes, and took in the look on her face.

"You went to the cold palace that day, and you thought you came to visit Concubine Li?"

Ye Zhenxiu frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice.

At this time, Cuilan coughed lightly, nodded slightly, and replied: "Even if the concubine wants to ask anything, this matter has nothing to do with Concubine Li. ”

"You couldn't be more wrong."

Immediately, Ye Hao sneered, her delicate cheeks were covered with a layer of disdain, and she only felt that this was too funny.

"If the emperor learns that you are Concubine Li's former maid, you are guilty of a capital crime, but you have also affected the little master of your family, right?" Ye Hao didn't answer the rhetorical question.

Suddenly, Cuilan's face changed greatly, her eyes were full of panic, and her body was spread on the ground like mud.

"Impossible...... These things are all caused by the slave maid, and they have absolutely nothing to do with Concubine Li. Cuilan's body went limp, lying on the ground and gasping.

Looking at the sky outside the window gradually turning white, Ye Hao's face was cold, and she said indifferently: "Before dawn, the palace will hand you over to the emperor for disposal." ”

At this time, Cuilan's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly kowtowed to Ye Hao and confessed: "Please also ask the concubine to save the slave." ”

"Murdering harem concubines has always been a capital crime, not to mention that Xian Zhaoyi is the emperor's favorite concubine, even if Xian Zhaoyi's body is fine now, she will not let you go." Ye Hao's eyes sank, and a cold light burst out from the bottom of her eyes.

"Because of this matter, Concubine Xian was grounded, and her temperament harem is known to everyone, she is arrogant and domineering, and will let you go?"
