After Concubine De finished asking everything, she asked Mama to bring Concubine Su.

The gate of Deshang Palace was closed, and Concubine Su knelt in the hall without saying a word.

Concubine De looked at her, her heart was furious, she had always been well-behaved and sensible, how could she commit such a wrong thing?

Concubine De held back her anger and said coldly: "Who is that person?" ”

Concubine Su raised her stubborn face, her beautiful eyes were full of tears, "Niangniang doesn't have to ask, let's execute the concubine." ”

"You're dead and you're done?" Concubine De was furious, "Not to mention that this palace will be affected by you, and your family will also be disposed of because of you, your father and brother are now released as officials, and they can return to Beijing to take up their posts in two years, are you going to cut off their future?" ”

Concubine Su said miserably: "Even if the concubine confesses, can my father and brother stay out of the matter?" The concubine has hurt them, but there is no turning back, if she had known today, the concubine would not have dared to die. ”

"I regret it now, it's too late, you'd better recruit from the truth, I can still plead with the emperor for your father and brother." Concubine De said angrily.

"I'm afraid that anyone's plea is useless, Niangniang, the concubine can't live up to your teaching and love all the time, the concubine is guilty!" Su Concubine burst into tears.

Concubine De looked at her, angry and distressed.

After living under the same roof for so long, it is impossible to say that she has no emotions at all, and now she can still kneel here, but her fate has been decided, and she will definitely die.

Concubine De said in a deep voice: "You are guilty, you are in trouble, it is not a pity for you to die, but if you recruit an adulterer, your clan relatives still have a way to live, you can think about it yourself." ”

Concubine De's henchmen are still questioning and investigating, so she is not in a hurry to ask Concubine Su to confess, the men she can contact are limited, as long as it takes some effort, she can always investigate.

It's just that after all, I still hope that she will confess herself.

The palace maid in charge of Deshang Palace walked in and whispered a few words in Concubine De's ear, Concubine De nodded and said, "Don't be alarmed yet, continue to ask." ”

The palace maid responded and walked out.

Su Concubine glanced at Concubine De in a panic.

Concubine De said lightly: "Do you think you can hide it?" Hongu will always look into it. ”

Su Concubine was terrified, she couldn't affect him, he was already victimized by himself.

I remembered that person's words in my mind, if you really can't be punished, you will confess that person is the king of Chu, you are dead, but your sweetheart can still live.

She cried, bowed her head to the ground, and said sadly: "Niangniang, it is the king of Chu, that person is the king of Chu, the concubine is really unwilling to let him come out, Niangniang, you can't let the emperor know, the prince will be killed, the concubine is willing to accept the guilt alone, Niangniang, please keep this secret, the concubine will be a cow and a horse in the next life, and you will also repay your great kindness." ”

When Concubine De heard this, her eyes turned black and she almost fainted.

She reached out and grabbed the armrest of the chair, stared at Su Concubine deadly, and gritted her teeth, "You...... You don't change your life, but you dare to slander the King of Chu? If your adulterer is the king of Chu, why did he call this palace to investigate you? Are you a fool when this palace is? You've really wasted this palace to love you. ”

Su Concubine kept kowtowing and cried: "The concubine didn't lie, it was the King of Chu, the two of us made an appointment in the Minghua Palace, but we didn't know that we were doing good things, but we were bumped into by the Eighth Prince and the little eunuch, the King of Chu killed the little eunuch with a sword, for fear that the Eighth Prince would say it, he also killed the Eighth Prince, Gu Si was present, he was looking at the wind for us, and when he heard someone coming outside, the prince hurriedly took me over the wall and came out, Gu Si couldn't escape, so he could only take the blame for him. ”

A flame burst out of Concubine De's eyes, "It's very well written, but unfortunately, this palace is not a fool." ”

Concubine Su cried: "Niangniang, what the concubine said is true, if it weren't for the King of Chu, how could Gu Si admit to murder?" That's a great crime to kill your head. ”

Concubine De knew that he had a point, but she didn't believe Concubine Su's words.

She knew that she couldn't let Concubine Su go out and talk nonsense, otherwise she would be the fifth child.

She sank down and said coldly, "Someone! ”

The door was pushed open, and Mama walked in, "Niangniang, you command." ”

"Take Concubine Su back to the palace, gag her mouth, and don't let her talk nonsense." Concubine De said angrily.

Mama got the order, turned around and took a piece of cloth, pulled up Su Concubine with one hand, blocked the cloth strip in her mouth, and said, "Su Concubine, please!" ”

Su Concubine was taken out in a hurry.

Concubine De felt that she had to see the fifth child.

She said: "Someone, invite the king of Chu to my palace, and say that there are a few fetal pills for the princess in this palace." ”

"Yes!" The palace maid was ordered to go out.

Yu Wenhao was inquiring about the list of the forbidden army on duty that day, and when he heard that Concubine De wanted to see him, he went.

When she came to Deshang Palace, Concubine De ordered someone to close the door.

Yu Wenhao asked for peace first, and then asked, "Mother De, how is it?" Did she recruit? ”

Concubine De looked at him, this child was raised by her when she was a child, and she was definitely not that kind of person.

Therefore, Concubine De said: "You sit down and listen to what Bengong has to say." ”

Yu Wenhao looked suspicious, sat down and looked at Concubine De.

Concubine De said: "That slut recruited it, but she said that the adulterer was you." ”

Yu Wenhao nodded, "I expected it." ”

Concubine De was stunned, "Do you know she would say that?"

Yu Wenhao said: "Mother De, I have already investigated, after I came out of the imperial study that day, Gonggong Li informed me that my mother was not feeling well, so it was Gonggong Li who guided me to the Minghua Palace, which was originally a bureau set up for me, Gu Si just happened to appear in the Minghua Palace, Gu Si saw Su Concubine and the adulterer, and his face looked a little similar to me, so Gu Si also thought it was me, so he thought it was me, so he cleverly took the crime for me. ”

Concubine De nodded, and thought about it again, "They know that the Eighth Prince often goes to the Minghua Palace, so they choose the Minghua Palace to do a good thing, this is indeed like a conspiracy, however, if that person is just like you, after being broken by the Eighth Prince, it is said that you can escape quickly without hurting anyone, the eunuch next to the Eighth Prince will report this matter to the queen, and this person's strategy has successfully implicated you, why should you seriously injure the Eighth Prince and make a big deal?" You know, this matter is big, and it won't do them any good, after all, with a close investigation, they can't guarantee that they won't show clues, although if they succeed, they can beat you to a place where you can't turn over, but if it doesn't work, they are exposed, and it's not worth it. ”

Yu Wenhao said: "Mother De's analysis is not wrong, so, they didn't plan to hurt the eighth child, they just wanted the eighth and the little eunuch to see, the little eunuch reported to the queen, the queen will ask the old eight, the eighth person will not lie, if he says it is me, the father will also firmly believe that it is me, plus I have the guidance of Gonggong Li, at this moment I appeared near the Minghua Palace, basically I can't wash it away." However, when they killed the little eunuch, they also wanted to kill the old eight, but the eighth was only seriously injured, and the man couldn't make up for the sword, so Gu Si came. Why would they do this? There is only one reason, that is, the eighth and the little eunuch both saw the adulterer's face, and that person was not me. ”
