Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Third Jade Earring

But how could Shu Wan let her die so easily, the slightest movement of her fingers hidden in her sleeves made Juan Qiao fall to the ground.

"I haven't finished saying this, why are you in a hurry to hit the pillar?" Shu Wan said to Juan Qiao, who threw a big bag out of her head: "These words are just your words, what about the evidence?" Do you have any evidence against this palace? ”

"Yes, slaves and maids!"

Juan Qiao nodded again and again, and hurriedly took out a sachet from her sleeve, "On that day, the slave and maid were afraid that the jade concubine would turn her face and not recognize people afterwards, so I asked the jade concubine to give the slave and maid the same token, and asked the emperor to see it." ”

Soon someone presented the sachet up, opened it and looked at it, and immediately his face changed greatly, and what was in it was one of the pair of Hetian jade earrings that he had rewarded Shu Wan, because this pair of earrings was specially designed by him for Shu Wan, so she was the only one in the palace who had it, although he refused to believe this fact in his heart, but now that the evidence was in hand, Kangxi had to believe it.

threw the earring to the ground at once, slowly raised his head, his eyes were full of loss, looked at Shu Wan, and said slowly word by word: "Wan'er, do you have anything else to say?" ”

Looking at the earring thrown on the ground, Shu Wan chuckled in her heart, she just lost an earring a few days ago, but she didn't expect it to appear here.

Seeing Shu Wan's expression, Concubine Hui was even more sure that the murderer behind the scenes was Shu Wan, and hurriedly knelt in front of Kangxi and begged him to punish Shu Wan severely.

Kangxi was silent for a long time before saying, "Is this true?" Did you really let the big brother push him into the water? ”

"The concubine has nothing to say," Shu Wan's expression calmed down, glanced at Concubine Hui, and said unhurriedly: "However, the pair of earrings of the concubine are still in the Youyou Pavilion, I don't know why there is an identical one here, and the concubine is also very puzzled." ”

"You talk nonsense! Who doesn't know that you are the only one in the palace who has such a pair of jade earrings! Concubine Hui pointed at the tip of Shu Wan's nose and scolded, "Don't think that you can do anything wrong with the emperor's favor, and you will be punished one day for doing bad things." ”

"Concubine Hui's words are very much in favor of this palace, if you do too many bad things, will you have to be punished?" Shu Wan shook her handkerchief and said to Kangxi: "If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can go to the Youyou Pavilion to bring the pair of earrings, and then you will naturally be able to prove the innocence of the concubine." ”

Seeing that Shu Wan still didn't look flustered at this time, Kangxi nodded, and then ordered Liang Jiugong and Zhixing to go to Youyou Pavilion to get the earrings.

The two naturally didn't dare to delay, because they had received Shu Wan's prompt before, and soon Zhixing took Liang Jiugong to find the pair of earrings.

Kangxi saw that the three earrings were exactly the same, and Concubine Hui also stayed there, "What's going on here?" ”

Concubine Hui looked incredulous, how could there be three identical earrings?

The pair of earrings that the emperor rewarded Shu Wan with was the seed material of Hetian jade, which was extremely rare and precious, and it was not possible to covet everyone in the harem at that time.

So when Juan Qiao took out the earring, Concubine Hui recognized it at a glance, but she didn't expect that these three earrings were exactly the same, what the hell is going on?

Juan Qiao on the side was also surprised, the earrings were stolen by her with great effort, it must be real, how could it be fake?

Kangxi frowned and was silent, and for a while, there was silence around him.

Juan Qiao was scared in her heart, Concubine Hui was puzzled, and Shu Wan was open in her heart, looking ahead, observing the reactions of the people around her with the corner of her eye.

Fortunately, after the earrings were lost, she was afraid that Kangxi would be angry, so she immediately found a piece of Hetian jade from the treasure pavilion of the space and made an identical earring, but she didn't expect it to come in handy today.

"Juanqiao, what else do you have to say?"

Kangxi rolled his eyes, looking at Juan Qiao with eyes like knives, after this half a day of torment, Juan Qiao had already been scared to the point that the six gods had no master, and would only kneel on the ground and kowtow desperately, "The slave doesn't know either, but everything is what the Jade Concubine Niangniang told the slave to do, and the slave and the maid have no lies." ”

Kangxi glanced at Shu Wan, who had been calm from beginning to end, and waved his hand to the minions below, "Take someone to the Shen Criminal Division, you must pry her mouth open!" ”

Seeing that Juan Qiao was taken down, Concubine Hui was anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this..."

"Don't say it, there are still a lot of doubts in this matter, don't worry, I will definitely investigate the matter clearly."

Kangxi didn't let Concubine Hui continue, "You go back to the palace to take care of the eldest brother first, and I will definitely give you justice." ”

"However, that Juan Qiao was obviously instructed by the Jade Concubine, does the emperor still want to protect the Jade Concubine?"

"Bold! Don't you listen to what I say? ”

Usually, as long as Kangxi is angry, Concubine Hui will definitely not dare to refute, but this matter is related to the eldest brother, although Concubine Hui is afraid of it, but she still does not give in.

"If the emperor really insists on going his own way and wants to favor the jade concubine, then the concubine has nothing to say," Hui Concubine knelt directly in front of Kangxi, "The concubine knows that she is not as good as the jade concubine, and she never dares to ask for anything, but the eldest brother is the life of the concubine, and now the emperor allows the jade concubine to murder the eldest brother, although the concubine has no way to change the emperor's decision, but she will definitely fight to the end, even if the emperor wants to give the concubine to death, the concubine will never complain." ”

Looking at Concubine Hui kneeling in front of him, Kangxi sighed, but with a hint of anger in his eyes, he said sharply to the slaves around him: "What are you doing standing, why don't you hurry up and help Concubine Hui up?" ”

"The concubines can't afford it, as long as the emperor doesn't administer justice for the concubines and the eldest brother for a day, the concubines will always kneel here!"

Kangxi already had obvious displeasure on his face, after all, he was the emperor, where had he been questioned like this, he took a deep breath and said softly: "It's not that I don't want to uphold justice for you, it's just that there is something strange about this matter, and when I find out the situation, I will naturally punish the guilty." ”

"The emperor is obviously favoring Concubine Yu, since the last incident, Concubine Yu has always hated the eldest brother, this time it must be Concubine Yu who is behind her back in order to take revenge, why don't you believe in the concubine!"

Concubine Hui was heartbroken, her face was full of resentment against Shu Wan, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Is it because the Jade Concubine is young and beautiful and can please the emperor, so the emperor is particularly tolerant of the Jade Concubine?" ”

Kangxi scolded loudly: "Shut up! I see you're going to be lawless! ”

"The concubine is just loyal to the ear, whether the emperor wants to hear it or not, the concubine has to say it!"

Seeing that Concubine Hui was so iron-clad, Shu Wan on the side didn't know what to say, and she wanted to convict her just because of this palace maid's nonsense, which was too ridiculous.

A pair of hands grabbed Kangxi's sleeves, Kangxi looked back, it was Shu Wan, and saw Shu Wan smile slightly, "Your Majesty, the concubine saw that Concubine Hui said so much, could it be that she has other evidence in her hand?" ”

"Concubine Hui, do you have any other evidence in your hands?"

As soon as she heard Kangxi say this, Concubine Hui's heart suddenly became empty, and her eyes began to wander, where did she have any other evidence, originally she thought that she would be able to convict Shu Wan with Juanqiao, but she didn't expect Shu Wan to dodge it by a high level.

Biting her lip, she hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The concubine naturally has no other evidence, but the concubine knows that the mastermind behind this matter must be the Jade Concubine!" ”

Shu Wan's eyes flashed a trace of treachery, why did Concubine Hui have to rely on her to say that she was a murderer?

All kinds of things that have happened from the big brother falling into the water to today instantly appeared in my mind, and suddenly the most unlikely possibility came to my heart, and I was instantly relieved.

Turning his head to look at Kangxi, even his eyes were red, "Your Majesty, you see, Concubine Hui has no evidence to prove that the concubine is guilty, but she convicted the concubine with the words of a little palace maid, the concubine really didn't expect Concubine Hui to hate the concubine so much, is the concubine really so disgusting?" ”

Kangxi hurriedly comforted: "It's not your fault, you're fine." ”

Seeing that Hui Concubine was kneeling on the ground motionless, Kangxi carried Hui Concubine out and stuffed it into the sedan chair, although Hui Concubine was shouting all the way, but no one dared to stop, so he sent Hui Concubine back to Yanxi Palace directly.

After sending away Concubine Hui, Kangxi saw that Shu Wan was still depressed, and thought that it was because he was framed and felt wronged, so he couldn't help but say: "Don't worry, I believe that this matter was not done by you, and I will definitely give you justice." ”

"The concubine knows," Shu Wan nodded, holding back the emotions rolling in her heart, and trying to squeeze out a smile.

After Concubine Hui was forcibly carried back to Yanxi Palace by Kangxi's people, she lost her temper that night, but after a while, she couldn't get angry, because a little eunuch hurriedly came to report that the eldest brother had a fever again, and this time the fever was even worse than last time!

At this time, Concubine Hui was completely panicked, and hurriedly trotted to the side hall to visit the eldest brother, only to see the eldest brother lying on the bed shivering, his lips were already chapped, and when he touched the eldest brother's forehead, the temperature was simply terrifying.

"Where's the Imperial Doctor! Go and call the Imperial Doctor! ”

Hui Concubine pounced on the eldest brother and wiped her body while chanting Amitabha.

After several imperial doctors came, after some discussion, they all thought that the eldest brother was just a general wind and cold, so they prescribed a prescription, who expected that after the eldest brother drank the medicine, he burned even more, and after Hui Concubine knew, her blood surged up, and she fainted all of a sudden.
