Chapter 107: Cloth Man
"It was the beauty who made the slave do this. That day, the beauty was very unhappy when she saw the emperor go to Yuquan Palace, so she kept staring at it. It wasn't until the next day that I saw the emperor and Xin Zhaoyi go to the Qiangong together, and soon after, Concubine Yun Guifei also passed, and they didn't come out until the evening, so the beauty came up with this method. She said that she asked the slave maid to go to the little seventh son of the laundry bureau to help spread some rumors, and said that there would be a heavy reward after the deed. ”
Looking at Lan Yu's expression of wanting to kill, Qing'er gritted her teeth and continued. "All the people in the laundry bureau saw that the slaves and maids had gone, and if the emperor didn't believe it, he could send them to testify."
"Blue Beauty asked you to find Xiao Qizi, why not someone else? Do you know why? Wang Jinyun's sudden question immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Yes, how could Lan Yu know Xiao Qizi? And so sure he would help her. It stands to reason that even when I was a palace maid in the past, I wouldn't have contact with someone like Xiao Qizi. She is the palace maid next to Chen Jing, and she follows Chen Jing on weekdays. Moreover, looking at Xiao Qizi's appearance today, he has always been defending Lan Yu, and even his own apprentices can't take care of it.
"The slave doesn't know, the beauty just asked the slave to take the silver to bribe the little seventh son."
"You talk nonsense! Your Majesty, the concubine has never done it! How could the concubine know any little seventh son, the concubine has rarely left the Lanxi Palace since she followed the emperor, and it is impossible for her to go to a place like the laundry bureau. All this is because Qing'er wants to slander the concubine, she remembers that the concubine beats and scolds her a lot on weekdays, so she wants to wait for an opportunity to retaliate. The emperor is discerning! ”
Listening to Wang Jinyun's question, Lan Yu seemed to grasp a life-saving straw. As long as they can't explain why they went to find Xiao Qizi, then no one can prove that what Qing'er said is true, and they are still innocent. As for Xiao Qizi, he didn't have the courage to admit it.
"Yes, Your Majesty. The minion has never seen a blue beauty, let alone has anything to do with a beauty. It's all Qing'er, a slut, she came to the slave one night, saying that it was lonely in the deep palace, and she wanted to be a husband and wife with the slave, but the slave didn't agree, so she came up with such a poisonous plan to kill the slave. Xiao Qizi listened to Lan Yu's words, and naturally knew that she was going to put all the charges on Qing'er's head, and she quickly came up with a statement in her mind to explain the reason why he was involved in Lan Yu.
"Nonsense! Did Qing'er buy it out of the laundry bureau alone? Not to mention where did she get so much silver as a palace maid, even if she has so much money, isn't there a person from your little seventh son in the entire laundry bureau? Even your apprentice Xiao Qiuzi won't help you? Wu Yuyan was angry when she heard their sophistry, and blurted out the questioning words without thinking.
This was originally what he thought of temporarily, how could Xiao Qizi think so much, and he was speechless for a while.
Li Yiqian listened to these people's arguments, although he was a little annoyed and wanted to convict Lan Yu as soon as possible, but he had to say that from an objective point of view, they really had no conclusive evidence to prove that Lan Yu had done it.
"Last year, Blue Beauty spent half a month in the laundry bureau." Suddenly, Xiao Qiuzi's words suddenly interrupted the war of words on the field.
Lan Yu and Xiao Qizi both looked at him nervously, while the others smiled slightly, among which Zhao Qinyue was the most obvious. "Xiao Qiuzi, you say, what happened to Blue Rain in the first place!"
"At that time, the minions ...... The slave heard from the master that there was a new palace maid who was demoted, and she was assigned to the laundry bureau because she made the master angry. That person was none other than Blue Beauty, but then she didn't stay long before she disappeared again. Xiao Qiuzi said timidly.
Seeing what Lan Yu and Xiao Qizi wanted to say, Wu Yuyan motioned to the palace maid at the door to directly block their mouths, and then asked, "What month was it at that time?" ”
Xiao Qiuzi thought for a while before saying, "It's about October, and the slave remembers that when Lan Meiren first went, she had chilblains on her hands within two days. ”
"October? At that time, Chen Jing was still there, and she must have done something wrong and was sent there by her. Wu Yuyan muttered.
"Your Majesty, it's better to let the imperial doctor come over and take a look, if Lan Meiren really has chilblains on her hands, she will definitely be diagnosed." Wang Jinyun proposed.
At this time, Lan Yu's eyes were full of horror, she knew that she had frostbite on her hands, and if she was ordered by the imperial doctor to see it, she would not be able to hide anything, and everything would be over by then. "Hmmm......" Lan Yu twisted desperately, trying to break free from the mama who was pressing her.
Wu Yuyan asked her to let her go, only to see her looking at Li Yiqian with sad eyes: "If the emperor suspects the concubine, the concubine might as well die, and it will save the eyes of others." With that, he staggered to his feet and rushed to the corner of the table not far away.
As long as she bumps into it, this matter will definitely not be pursued any longer, this is her hope. Lan Yu's expression was a little hideous, but he didn't have the slightest fear of death, but showed a hint of joy.
"Stop her!" When Wang Jinyun heard her words, she thought of what she might do, and just as she was about to run over, she let the original grandmother who was holding her stop her. Fortunately, that grandma was also arranged in advance, so that she could keep an eye on the movement of the blue rain, which came in handy at this time.
Lan Yu saw that the bitter meat couldn't make a plan, and he was already a little desperate in his heart.
When Qing'er saw that she wanted to die, she immediately thought that this was a bitter plan. She has served Lan Yu for so long, and she has already figured out her temperament, she is definitely the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and she will not be willing to die.
Lan Yu, don't blame me Qing'er, you can only blame yourself! If you don't die, I'll be the one who dies. I'm here to save my life, so don't come to me when you get down there! Who let you do that kind of thing yourself. A touch of ruthlessness flashed in Qing'er's eyes.
After figuring out that, Qing'er opened her mouth and shouted: "Your Majesty, the slave still has something to say!" ”
After getting Li Yiqian's permission, she added a few more charges to Lan Yu's forehead. She pointed out that Lan Yu usually has resentment towards Lin Yaxin, Zhao Qinyue and others. Once, when she was helping her clean up her bed, she noticed a little figure covered with silver needles under the pillow, and she didn't know what was written on it.
"Where is the villain now?" Originally, it sounded nothing, because it was inevitable that Lan Yu hated them. But when she heard this, Zhao Qinyue instantly became very excited, this kind of thing must be written on it. And the most likely thing she knows in the palace is her own, and she is going to use the curse technique against herself!
"Slave maid...... The slave remembered seeing the beauty put it under the bed, but she didn't know if it was still there. Qing'er knew that she had already let herself out this time, if Lan Yu didn't die, she would be the unlucky one, so she didn't have the idea of helping her hide it at all.
"Xiao Muzi, you go in person." In order to prevent Wu Yuyan and Wang Jinyun from being gossiped about, Li Yiqian asked Mu Xiu to find them.
After saying this, Li Yiqian's face was not very good-looking.
After a while, when he saw what Mu Xiu had brought back, he took it in his hand and looked at it, and then threw it down. "It is forbidden to use these crooked magic in the palace, but I didn't expect that there are still people who want to violate the ban. What else do you have to say! After speaking, his eyes looked at Lan Yu fiercely.
I thought she was just trying to compete for favor by some subordinate means, but I didn't expect that such things would be involved. Li Yiqian was really a little angry.
The sitting palace concubines were also startled when they saw the appearance of the cloth man, the workmanship of the cloth man was very rough, and the appearance was also very ugly, or it was almost put together from rags. The most striking thing is that its front is densely filled with silver needles, and under the silver needles is a note, which can be faintly seen in some red handwriting.
"This is not a concubine's thing, it must be Qing'er who deliberately framed the concubine!" Lan Yu seemed to be crazy and pushed all the charges on Qing'er's body. "Your Majesty, don't you believe in concubines?"
"The evidence is conclusive, Lan Yu, what else do you have to say!" Zhao Qinyue also kicked Wu Yuyan's words on behalf of Yue Yu at this time, and directly began to question Lan Yu. She had already picked it up and looked at it just now, although most of the handwriting was covered by silver needles, but from which traces leaked out she knew that it was her birthday, but she didn't expect her to dare to do this.
"Why are you cursing me? Why spread rumors to slander the reputation of Xin Zhaoyi and Yun Guifei? Zhao Qinyue knew that if it was just herself, Li Yiqian would probably not be very angry, but if Lin Yaxin was added, the effect would be different. So even if she was unwilling, she brought the two of them to talk about the time.
"Why? Zhao Qinyue, you actually asked me why? When Lan Yu heard Zhao Qinyue's words, she immediately became very excited, "Don't you know the reason for this?" ”
Maybe it was because the emotions in her heart had not been vented for a long time, but the anger accumulated in her heart at this time actually made her break free from the shackles of that grandmother, and her hands trembled and pointed at Zhao Qinyue. Because she came to see the cloth man just now, Zhao Qinyue was very close to her, and just as Zhao Qinyue made a flash of effort, Lan Yu pounced on her and knocked her down in an instant. The two fell to the ground together.
Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone exclaimed. But Zhao Qinyue is the daughter of a military general family after all, and Zhao Jing has also taught her a lot of martial arts since she was a child. Just now, she was just distracted and was attacked by Lan Yu, and at this time she reacted, and directly turned over, pressed on Lan Yu's body, and hit her. Because she was below when Lan Yu pounced on her just now, her back hit the ground entirely, and she felt a little painful at this time. Coupled with the matter of the cloth man just now, Zhao Qinyue almost did not reserve his hand at Lan Yu.
"Slut, you dare to hit me too? Don't look at what you are! ”
