The queen pointed at her and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the concubine's life and Furong to take precautions in advance, I'm afraid that you wouldn't be able to see this only person now." ”

He said to Liu Caidao: "With this palace in charge for you, you don't have to be afraid, in front of Your Majesty, tell everything you see and hear." ”

Liu Cairen glanced at the prince timidly, came to Mama Xia and knelt down, and said, "The concubine is the talented Liu family Xiu'er in the East Palace. Qi Yu Emperor, Niangniang, concubine originally lived in Qihuatai with the talented Wang family, remember that when the month was not in the month of the year, once, the concubine had heard her say when chatting with Wang, she recently met a good man, after her treatment, the original menstrual blood irregularity on the body was cured.

The concubine has always had this problem, and when she heard it, she was envious, so she pestered her to introduce this Langzhong to treat me. Wang refused at first, but then he could not resist my repeated pleadings, so he reluctantly agreed, but he refused to take me there, and only pointed to the cabin where Na Langzhong lived, and asked me to go and beg her myself.

So, I prepared some gifts and went to the cabin alone to meet Na Langzhong, who ......knows," she subconsciously curled up, hesitating and not daring to continue.

"What the hell are you going to say! I don't have the time to listen to you. The Emperor urged sharply.

The concubine walked less than a hundred steps from the cabin, and suddenly saw the door of the cabin open, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked out of it.

The concubine hurriedly hid behind a tree, only to hear an old woman say, 'Your Highness should not come here in the future, whether it is successful or not, the old woman will bear it alone.' ’

The prince replied, 'Mama just do it, and then the palace will keep Mama safe.' At that time, the concubine saw that Lang Zhong was familiar with the crown prince as Wang said, and heard that the meaning of his words seemed to be something important, and she did not want to be heard by others, so she left in a hurry. ”

Later, after Wang's accident, the concubine lived alone in Qihuatai and was afraid, so she often went to Ning Xiangxuan to find Dugu Niangniang as a companion.

It wasn't until a few days ago that I overheard the conversation between the prince and Mama Xia again, and I realized that the big thing they said in front of the cabin that day was actually poisoning and murdering Niangniang.

The concubine panicked for a moment and accidentally made a noise, which aroused the suspicion of the prince.

He first asked the concubine to move to Yichun Palace to live, and then went to Yichun Palace in person early this morning, forcing the concubine to admit in public at the palace banquet tonight that it was me who drugged Wang's diet, causing him to go crazy and do something rebellious.

The concubine has been greatly wronged, please ask the emperor and the mother to be the master of the concubine......"

After Liu Cairen said these words in one breath, he lay on the ground and sobbed.

"Good story, really good story."

The prince clapped his hands and stood up, walked to Liu Cairen's side and stood down, suddenly raised his right hand, showed a green jade card, and asked Furong, "Shouldn't the girl not recognize this object?" ”

Then, without waiting for her to react, she said to the emperor again: "Please ask my father to order the search of this cheap maid's body, and she also has a piece of it." ”

The emperor was puzzled and asked, "What is this?" ”

The prince picked Liu Cairen up from the ground, and was about to say something like "This is a token of the informant of Qingning Palace", but he heard Li Jinzhong on the side suddenly sneeze unusually loud, and then a loud voice sounded outside the hall: "Chen Liu Yi asks to see the emperor." ”

"Li Jinzhong, what kind of trick are you playing?" The corners of the emperor's mouth showed a subtle smile, and he commanded loudly: "Call in." ”

Pei Baiyao and Jing Yuncong accompanied a middle-aged man with a handsome face and a thin figure into the main hall.

When the emperor saw this person, he laughed and said: "The queen's words are true, there are really old people to meet tonight, and it is not in vain that I came here." Liu Qing, you scattered immortals can't bear to be lonely, did you come to Chang'an City to drink and enjoy the lanterns? ”

Liu Yi looked around at the people in the hall, and made a long bow to the emperor and queen: "The prince is invited to the east, the emperor and the mother are in person, and the people in the mountains and fields dare to disobey their orders?" He said to Li Jinzhong again: "The boy sent by Brother Li to deliver the letter is extraordinary, I want to take him as an apprentice, I don't know if Brother Li is willing to cut his love?" ”

Li Jinzhong replied with a smile: "That's the person from His Royal Highness the Prince, Brother Liu asked for the wrong person." ”

In this way, the already tense atmosphere in the hall suddenly eased.

Only the queen is different from others, she thought that she was in her hands, and she was going to put the prince in a place of no return tonight, but since Liu Yi appeared, she had an ominous feeling of falling into the trap set by the prince.

Xia pleaded guilty in court, although it was unexpected, she still had a back hand, and threw Liu Cairen out in time, not hesitating to break the net, but also to detain a crime of rebellion on the prince's head.

But Liu Yi, who has a deep relationship with the emperor, suddenly came at a critical time, obviously it was not as simple as coming to the East Palace for a night banquet just to be invited by the prince, did he also come to this troubled water?

The queen thought about it, and gave Yang Quanyi, who was standing beside the emperor, Yang Quanyi understood, and quietly slipped out of the hall while everyone was not paying attention.

Liu Yi turned to the prince with an angry face and said: "Your Highness is courteous and invited, and Liu Mou arrived for the overall situation of the court, not to debate right and wrong, right and wrong, and I asked Your Highness for forgiveness." ”

The prince respectfully returned the salute and replied, "The palace is grateful that the gentleman is willing to come." Everything Danyi is. ”

Liu Yi nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the queen: "The Xia family was entrusted by Concubine Wu Xian to arrange to hide in the East Palace three years ago and secretly take care of the prince. ”

The queen laughed angrily, pointed at Liu Cairen and questioned Liu Yi: "The crown prince's envoy, the Xia family's rebellion is witnessed!" Mr. Liu pretended to make such an astonishing statement in front of His Majesty, is there any evidence? ”

Liu Yi replied unhurriedly: "Niangniang wants a certificate, naturally there is." Before showing the voucher, the minister dared to ask Niangniang a question: What is the motive of the so-called prince and the Xia family's rebellion?

The minister has not been in the capital for a few years, and he doesn't know much about the situation in the court and the palace, so he really can't think of why the prince would make such a disloyal and unwise move. ”

"Sir, this is a strange question, what he has done, you want this palace to explain the reason, isn't it implying to Your Majesty that this palace is framing him?"

The queen knew that if she wanted to explain the motives of the prince's rebellion, she would inevitably turn over all kinds of old things and put them in front of everyone for comment, and she would not be fooled by this under any circumstances.

"Okay, Niangniang refused to say, the minister had to prove myself first, not that the prince was the main culprit behind this scene.

The minister first asked His Majesty to testify for the minister, and it was the minister's order to arrange someone to secretly support the prince in the East Palace. ”

Liu Yi's voice was not loud, but as soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt sounding in the queen's ears.
