Chapter 51: Coerced Confessions

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the palace people are wearing thick cotton jackets, and I am no exception.

Father-in-law Liu brought me charcoal, on such a cold day, if you don't make some charcoal fire in the house, you will freeze your body. I sat in the house, drinking ginger tea, warm.

The trees in the courtyard were not alive at all, and the sky was gloomy, and a bird flew down, as if foraging, but pecked twice and flew away.

Xia Ning has been gone for more than half a month, and I don't know when he will be able to come back.

"Ann is in charge...... Oh no......! ”

Gonggong Liu ran over to me and said in a panic: "Concubine Liu Guifei is going to search our Shangqing Palace with a group of people!" ”

I stood up and asked, "What?" Searching the palace? Why did she search our Shangqing Palace? ”

Gonggong Liu said: "The concubine said that she lost a jade bracelet during hunting, and the jade bracelet was given to her by the emperor, which was very precious, and she thought that it must have been stolen by someone in the palace, so she wanted to search the palace!" What can I do? ”

She ...... That's what she did on purpose! I said, "She's just trying to get into trouble with us!" ”

"That'...... What are we going to do? ”

"I always thought that if I didn't leave this Shangqing Palace, I wouldn't be able to touch their Liu family, but I didn't expect her to ...... Thinking of a way to fix me! It's so damning! ”

"Right now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not here, this is still the Qing Palace...... How can you say that you can search for it? Your Highness is back, how should I explain it! ”

"How can we people from Shangqing Palace steal things? If she wants to search it, I don't believe that this bracelet will run to our Shangqing Palace by itself! ”

"Search for me! Not a single room can be spared! ”

"Yes!"

Liu Guifei rushed into my courtyard with a group of people, and these people began to rummage around the room.

I greeted her, facing the domineering Liu Guifei, and saluted her, "See Guifei Niangniang!" I don't know what Qiao'er has done, Lao Deniang is so excited! ”

Liu Guifei said disdainfully: "The palace lost a jade bracelet, I have searched the palace for most of the month and I haven't found it, and you are left in the Shangqing Palace, An's niece and nephew shouldn't mind the palace coming to find the bracelet!" ”

"How dare the juniors! It's just that...... This Shangqing Palace is the bedroom of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the concubine is doing this, I'm afraid it's not good! ”

"Humph! I am the mistress of this palace! Search wherever you want! Prince? When he sees me, he has to call me a concubine! ”

"Found it! Got it! ”

What the? I turned around and saw a palace man running over with a jade bracelet in both hands, and then handed it to Concubine Liu.

Liu Guifei took the jade bracelet and said, "I know!" Your hands and feet are not clean! Take it with me! ”

Then, the two palace people set me up, I pushed and shoved, and said loudly: "You let go of me!" I didn't take the bracelet! Why are you arresting me? ”

Liu Guifei said: "This bracelet was found in your room!" If you didn't take it, it wouldn't be possible...... Did it run to your room on its own legs? Take! ”

I used all my strength to push the two palace people away and said, "You can't arrest people for no reason!" Someone must have planted the blame! Even if it was found in my room, it wouldn't prove it...... I must have taken it! If the prince's brother knew about it......"

"Smack"!

A slap fell on my face, Liu Guifei shook her sleeves and said, "Who took it!" Bring it back and you'll know! Where can you be presumptuous here! Don't take it away yet! ”

Then, three or five palace people put me on the rails, dragged me out of Shangqing Palace, and I shouted: "You guys are grass and people's lives!" You have no proof! I didn't take the bracelet! You can't arrest people for nothing! I want to see the emperor! I want to see the emperor! Hmmm......"

These palace men stuffed a ball of cloth in my mouth, and I fainted......

I don't know how long it took, but I just felt that my face was cold and hard.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself lying on the ground, and I tried to support myself to sit up, but my hands couldn't move, and I was tied behind my back.

I leaned sideways and pressed my head against the ground to sit up.

It was like a firewood house, with a few bundles of branches piled up around it, and some charcoal fires. The room was dim, with only a few sporadic bits of light coming through a closed window.

My hair was wet, like it had been watered......

"Miss, she's awake!"

I looked in the direction where the voice came from, it was Ru'er, why was she here?

Then, a figure slowly walked towards me, and I instinctively stepped back. When I got closer, I found out that it was Liu Yueli!

I asked, "Why are you here?" ”

I saw Liu Yueli pacing in front of me with the attitude of a victor, and said, "It was my aunt who asked me to interrogate you!" You slept so deeply, it took several pots of water to wake you up! Go ahead! The bracelet is not your take! ”

"Huh! Bracelet? Save it! Why do you have to act like this! I don't know who was blackmailed by you, put the bracelet in my room, and then blamed me! ”

"Smack"!

Liu Yueli slapped me hard and said, "I still want to quibble!" Say! You didn't take it! ”

I spat and said, "Huh! That's right, too! Everyone in the world knows that Concubine Liu is gentle and virtuous, she wants to dispose of a person, but she has to find a reason, otherwise she will be accused of indiscriminate killing of innocents, and I am afraid that she will lose the title of concubine! ”

Another slap fell heavily on my face, and Liu Yueli said, "It seems that I have to teach you a lesson...... You'll admit it! Ru'er, slap mouth! ”

"Yes, Miss!"

The slap fell heavily on my face, the crimson liquid kept flowing out of my mouth, and the crisp sound echoed in the room, my face gradually became numb, and I no longer knew what it was like to hurt!

I laughed, the corners of my mouth were so swollen that I couldn't use my strength, Ru'er stopped when she saw me laughing, "Miss, this ......"

I said vaguely, "Huh! Is that all you have to do? ”

Liu Yueli looked at me and said arrogantly, "Hmph! Go get some basins of ice water and keep her sober! I don't believe her! ”

"Yes!"

I laughed and said, "Why don't you just kill me!" Aren't you tired of playing all these tricks?! ”

Liu Yueli said: "Didn't you say it all! There is a reason to kill! My aunt will be the queen mother in the future, but I don't want to be stained because of you! As long as you admit that you took the bracelet, I will give you a good time! ”

"Dream! I didn't take the bracelet! Even if I die, I won't admit it! ”

Liu Yueli smiled weirdly, her appearance was like a ghost.

Fingertips ran from my forehead to my face, and then tugged at my face so hard that the swollen flesh was about to explode under her grasp.

"Ahh

I cried out at the sudden pain......
