Chapter Seventy-Eight: Rectification I
After the case was investigated by Su Miaojing, Qi Jun reported it to the emperor, and the emperor's intention to hide the truth could no longer be implemented, so he had to order, a glass of poisoned wine, to give Concubine Hui to death, and to arrest Concubine Hui's family, degrade it, and kill it. At this point, the maternal power of King Wei in the court collapsed.
There was also the conspirator Shen Yunhan, who was stripped of his title of King of Nancang by order by the emperor, and imprisoned in the Seven Emperors' Mansion for life.
After Su Miaojing heard the news, she felt a little comforted in her heart, she finally found out the truth and avenged Xiao Cheng, hoping that he could rest in peace under Jiuquan.
But thinking of the little boy who once called my fifth sister-in-law in a childish voice disappeared into this world like this, her heart was extremely sad, he was so innocent, so innocent, but he was killed, thinking of this, her heart was very heavy.
On this day, after Su Miaojing treated Shen Yunxun, she returned to the palace, and she gathered all the people from the palace to gather in the courtyard of the hall.
Now that the case is over, it's time to clean up some people, or she'll really be a bully.
Today, Shen Yunche was not in the palace, he went to the palace to discuss the flood in the three states in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is estimated that he will be able to come back in the evening.
Su Miaojing thought that there was a drought in several counties in the southwest a few months ago, and now there are floods in the three states in the south of the Yangtze River.
She estimated that it would not be long before the emperor would hold a ceremony to appease the people. Although it was her guess, most of the people in ancient times would do this, regardless of whether it was useful to worship the heavens, but it was the most important thing to be able to appease the people, so even if most emperors did not believe that they could bless the country by worshipping the heavens, they would still engage in the ritual of worshipping the heavens.
After Su Miaojing gathered the people, she asked the old housekeeper in the house in a gentle tone, "Butler, have all the people in the house arrived?" She looked at the people in front of her by the way, and found that there were still two people who had not arrived, Qi Juan and her personal maid Huan Ling'er.
Su Miaojing's voice was faint, but she asked suspiciously, "Aren't there still two people who haven't arrived?" Why didn't Concubine Qi and her maid ring Ling'er arrive? ”
The old butler stood in front of her with a respectful attitude, because Shen Yunche had instructed that whoever disrespected the princess in the palace would be beaten a hundred boards, thrown out of the palace, and never used again.
He had heard the news of yesterday that the princess had done sorcery and had made a man fall asleep, and that man had given everything without knowing it. Although he doesn't know what method he used, if he can let people tell you the secret unknowingly, then this person is definitely extraordinary.
The old butler lowered his body and replied in his muddy voice, "Back to the princess, His Royal Highness has ordered that Concubine Qi should not be allowed to step out of the Yuxia Courtyard for half a step, otherwise he will kill those who hold on to the unfavorable position." ”
Su Miaojing looked at the housekeeper and said kindly, "Butler, what I want is for the whole house to gather in the hall, you don't care, just go and find them for me, if Shen Yunche blames it, I will bear it." ”
She slandered in her heart, I am looking for them, if they don't come, how can this play be sung.
The housekeeper didn't dare to disobey her, after all, if he let His Highness know, he would definitely not have good fruit to eat, but he didn't care about disobeying His Highness's orders.
He had no choice but to ask in a consultative tone, "Princess, Your Highness has given an order, and the old slave will not dare to disobey it, or the princess will wait for His Highness to come back and ask His Highness if she agrees to let Concubine Qi come out." ”
Su Miaojing looked at the housekeeper, her eyes were like torches, and her clear and bright eyes exuded even more radiance.
"Butler, I don't embarrass you, but what am I going to do next? Please don't stop me, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. Her tone gradually became sharper, and her voice was extremely domineering.
The butler nodded.
So Su Miaojing looked at Xuanzhu, "Xuanzhu, you go and find them for me, remember, if they don't want to come, then you don't have to be polite, just cripple me and drag them over." ”
When the butler heard the words, 'Just cripple me, just drag me over', his heart trembled with fear, it was the first time he had heard the princess say such cruel words.
I was still puzzled in my heart, could it be that Concubine Qi provoked the princess, but Concubine Qi stayed in Yuxia Courtyard all day and never took half a step out of the door, how did that provoke our ancestor.
Others also have this doubt, what happened to the princess? Why is there such a big fire?
Xuanzhu came to Yuxia Courtyard and told them what Su Miaojing wanted them to do, but sure enough, they didn't want to come.
I only heard Xuanzhu's indifferent warning, "Concubine Qi, my subordinates will say it again, the princess is invited, if you don't go, don't blame your subordinates for being serious." ”
As he spoke, he drew his sword and held it against her neck, with an indifferent expression on his face and a thick menace in his voice.
Concubine Qi looked like she didn't dare to measure him, and there was a hint of arrogance and provocation, "Come on!" If you have the ability, you will row down. ”
Xuanzhu only regards Su Miaojing as his master, only obeys her orders, and only cares about her safety, as for the others, it has nothing to do with him whether they are dead or alive.
Besides, the princess has instructed that if she doesn't want to come, she will do it directly.
Seeing that his sword gently cut through her white neck, Qi Wan was startled, and Ling'er next to her saw it and shouted, "Bold, dare to hurt the side concubine." Ling'er pushed him hard and blocked in front of Qi Juan.
Xuanzhu's cool voice, "The princess said, if you don't want to come, you will be crippled and dragged over."
Now I give you two choices, one, cripple, drag it over; Second, it's up to you to go over on your own. Take your pick! ”
Xuanzhu was also not polite, and said in a cold voice for them to choose.
When Qi Juan heard that the words were ordered by Su Miaojing, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth, that damn woman, she had given her slippery pills for so long, and she hadn't had a seizure yet, why didn't she die!
No, it's been more than half a month since the drug was given, how can I say that the medicine should also be poisonous, but there is no poison so far, did she find something? Secretly changed the medicine.
No, it can't be, it's impossible to let people do it so secretly, it's impossible to find it so easily. It's just that what the hell is she going to do today! Was it because she had discovered something and was ready to beat herself, or had she already found out that she had drugged her.
This matter must not be known to others, otherwise His Highness will know, and her entire Qi State Mansion will be finished. Although the conspiracy between his eldest sister and the abolished crown princess last time made the eldest sister die, His Royal Highness did not spare them at all.
His Royal Highness secretly sent someone to burn down several of his father's shops at that time, and beat the eldest brother in the barracks.
He couldn't get out of bed for a month.
As for the second brother, His Royal Highness burned the second brother's most precious wine storehouse, which was full of good wine that the second brother had collected over the course of ten years, and the second brother offered those wines as if they were treasures, and His Royal Highness burned them clean, which made him feel more distressed than killing him.
and his third brother, a child who was not yet ten years old, was sent by His Highness to cut off one of his fingers and dumb him so that he could no longer speak.
His Highness spared no one, such as himself, and ordered me to wear only one garment on the same day, and to kneel for the night in a more revealing night, and from then on, I fell ill with a cough, and when the weather was cold, I would fall ill.
And her half-sister, I heard that she fell into the lotus pond, she was already pregnant, but after such a toss, the child in her belly was gone, and the second sister at that time made trouble with His Royal Highness the Prince, but how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince help her.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also likes that vixen, how could he avenge her, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not kill her directly, it was already polite.
In fact, she guessed wrong, the child in her second sister's belly was not killed by Shen Yunche, Shen Yunche did have that intention at that time, but someone did it in advance. This person is none other than the prince, and it is so that her second sister can never get pregnant again.
Shen Yunze not only took revenge on Qi Jun at that time, but also the family of the crown princess, he sent someone to secretly arrest Yuwen Rujin's own sister, because what she cared about most was her own sister, Yuwen Ruolian, forced her to eat the poison of sterilization, which is why since then, Yuwen Ruolian hated Su Miaojing even more, but she didn't dare to touch her for half a point, because Shen Yunze threatened her that if she dared to tell her about it, she would let everyone know that she could no longer have children, and she would never be able to get married again.
Su Miaojing looked at Qi Juan and Ling'er who came, she had a cold smile, her eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone was cold, "Do you know what I called everyone for?" It's very simple, let everyone watch a good show. ”
Everyone was full of fear and doubt, what is the princess going to do?
Su Miaojing, who was sitting on the chaise longue, stared at Qi Juan with cold eyes, "Qi Juan, tell me, you murdered the child in my belly, how should I fix you so that I can relieve my anger." Her tone was like a discussion about whether or not we should play a game, how about it?
When the people heard this, they were not surprised, what? Concubine Qi plotted to kill the child in the princess's womb, it's impossible! Who dares to have the courage to murder His Highness's children, isn't that looking for death?
Besides, some time ago, Concubine Qi's eldest sister was executed by the emperor for framing the princess's child, and now she is doing it again, isn't she looking for death?
They secretly heard a news, where did Concubine Qi's family come from, the injured and disabled, this is all caused by His Royal Highness, but no one dares to say it, after all, His Royal Highness's cruelty is known to everyone, so who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head, doesn't he want to die?
Su Miaojing didn't care about the doubts in their hearts, looking at Qi Xuan's face after hearing this, the surprise flashed on her face for a moment, and her tone was indifferent, "Don't think that if you don't admit it, I don't know."
The reason why I haven't come to trouble you in the past few days is because I want to investigate the case, and I don't have time to spend with you, and now I have a lot of time to play with you. ”
Qi Juan was shocked and frightened in her heart, shocked that she really knew, afraid that if Her Royal Highness knew about this, then her Qi State Mansion would be completely finished.
