Chapter 144: The Innocent

"Someone! Concubine Shu colluded with the courtiers and brutalized the emperor's heir, and immediately, she took away her title and entered the cold palace. ”

The chill in his voice made everyone shiver.

Zhao Yuxuan obviously didn't understand what the situation was, and was about to step forward to defend himself, but he was pulled by Concubine Shu, and the tears slipped down first, and finally shook his head gently.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!"

The queen didn't know what was in that box, but she had been in the harem for many years, and she already knew what to ask, what not to ask, what to do, and what not to do.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu, as a concubine, has made such a big mistake, it is a concubine who is immoral, and I implore Your Majesty to punish her."

The emperor waved his hand: "It's none of your business. ”

"Concubine Shu plotted to kill the emperor's heir, there must be a beginning and an end, and the concubine asked His Majesty to give His Majesty a chance to make meritorious contributions to the concubine, and find out about this matter."

When the emperor heard this, he lowered his head to look at the queen, saw that her eyes were clear, and knew that she had understood, so he nodded and said, "I'll leave it to you." ”

Concubine Shu suddenly fell to the ground, and no one knew better than herself how much the queen hated her in her heart.

This time, Duanmu Zhu is not harmed by her, but it will become harmed by her, the point is that the power she has cultivated in the harem over the years is only afraid that it will be put into use.

Zhao Yuxuan could only stared blankly at the changes at this time, unable to say a word.

The two guards walked in, saluted, and without saying a word, immediately picked up the concubine and dragged her out.

At this time, Concubine Shu was like a lifeless doll, let others drag her away.

"!" Imperial Physician Wen, who had been silent, finally couldn't help but shout at this time.

But just as he opened his mouth, he clearly felt the gaze from the superior over there.

"Beat the slut to the twenty boards first!"

A cold voice sounded, and it immediately stopped what Imperial Physician Wen had not yet spoken.

The emperor is obviously forcing him to be silent, otherwise, there will be more severe punishment waiting for Concubine Shu later.

"Send this to the border and give it to Qi Yunfei."

What this means, everyone present understands.

Qi Yunfei's military power is not small, but this matter is obviously the crime of Concubine Shu, and the emperor dares to send this evidence to the border pass.

It can be seen that sending her into the cold palace is already a light punishment.

"Li Jingzi, do you want to explain yourself, or do you ......?"

The emperor reverted to his expression, as if the incident with Concubine Shu had never happened at all.

But the water in the pot was still boiling, and the trembling of the eunuch next to him continued.

And outside the palace gate, the screams of the concubine also came in.

Li Jingzi has never suffered like this, and she has long been scared to the point of cold hands and feet.

Deng Shi slumped to the ground: "Your Majesty, the concubine was instructed by the concubine to buy a murderer, regardless of the concubine's affairs, she is the mother concubine, and the concubine dare not listen!" ”

When Zhao Yuxuan heard this, he hated it in his heart, but he didn't dare to say a word.

The mother was executed outside, and the wife was tried here, again accusing her own mother.

Zhao Yuxuan only felt that he was in pain like accepting Ling Chi.

"Then you explain things clearly, when did she tell you to do it? How do you know all this? ”

Li Jingzi was stunned for a moment, this was not what Concubine Shu instructed her to do.

The reason why I know Qiulan is completely because of the concubine's mother's family.

When the emperor asked, she didn't know what to say.

It was a long time coming, which made Han Ling laugh out loud.

"Why is Jun Hao laughing?"

I don't know why, the emperor seems to be particularly tolerant of Han Ling.

Just like at this moment, in such an angry situation, he still had good words for Han Lingxi.

"Naturally, she didn't know how to answer, because she was all nonsense!"

"Oh? Jun Hao seems to know very well? ”

Han Ling laughed and said, "Unfortunately, a friend of mine who has a good relationship seems to be quite close to the fifth princess. ”

These words not only made Li Jingzi strange, but also surprised Zhao Yuxuan.

"Jiang Lishi, after waiting for so long, it's finally your turn."

"Who? Declare! ”

When the emperor heard this, he didn't ask much, and just let people in.

The man who came in was a young man, who was good-looking, and his clothes were not gorgeous, but they were very neat.

Seeing such a look in the hall, but his face did not change, it can be seen that he is not the offspring of an ordinary small family.

"Dust Jiang Chen knocks on my emperor, long live Your Majesty."

The emperor naturally didn't recognize this person, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time before asking, "Who are you and what are your duties?" ”

"My father was working under Lord Yuan, and when he saw that the ministers could still be sent, he appointed the ministers to the position of subordinates, and the ministers were ashamed and had a negative trust."

Jiang Chen said, but his attitude was still neither humble nor arrogant, which made people look very comfortable.

The emperor turned his face to look at Yuan Tianchong, but saw him nodding with appreciation in his eyes.

"Jun Hao asked Jiang Aiqing to come up, why?"

"Back to Your Majesty, it just so happens that Weichen knows something about the five princesses, and Brother Han knows about it, so he will bring the ministers to face the saint."

From hearing his identity, Li Jingzi knew that everything was a foregone conclusion.

"What's the matter?"

"The younger sister is a side concubine in the Five Princes' Mansion, and one day, she told Weichen that the Fifth Princess, who has never liked her very much, was inexplicably courteous to her and asked me what I wanted.

The so-called nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, let the housekeeper look at it, and don't make a big deal.

Sure enough, as Weichen expected, what the five princesses asked for was the evidence of Duanhui Junjun's case, and asked her father to tamper with the confession of the palace maid with a lot of money. ”

Unexpectedly, Concubine Jiang was not bought by herself, and there were only two words coming and going in Li Jingzi's mind - it's over.

"Li Jingzi, is this the case?"

The emperor suddenly asked, which almost made her collapse, but before the collapse, he thought of the tragic situation of the concubine and immediately came to his senses.

"Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life, I just want Duanmu Qing to die."

Duanmuqing knew that Li Jingzi would not let go of such a good opportunity, so when he heard this result, he was not surprised, and watched this scene like a passerby.

"Then I'm just asking for your life, okay?"

This sentence is good, so that Li Jingzi's heart was suddenly surrounded by fear.

The sound of boiling water rolling was suddenly amplified hundreds of times, tumbling in my ears.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I know it's wrong, Your Majesty spare your life, Your Majesty spare your life!"

"Your Majesty, the food and water that the county monarch eats and drinks in the heavenly prison have all been poisoned."

Han Lingyan didn't care at this time, the Wen Taiyi who had already gone to the half-life of the Imperial Doctor, said lazily.

Looking at his appearance today, it is quite a bit of a taste of settling accounts after the autumn.

"What?!" The emperor looked very surprised, and then looked at Li Jingzi, who was like soft mud, "You did it too?" ”

"No, no, no, Your Majesty, I didn't, I didn't do it, and I don't know."

Afraid that she would be charged with another crime, Li Jingzi was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

I was almost about to jump up and defend myself.

"You don't have the ability to command the people of the ministry."

When the words came out, the queen's heart jumped, as if she had a premonition.

Raised his eyes to look at Han Lingxi, wanting to see what he meant.

However, the other party did not show it at all.

After saying a word lazily, Han Lingyan stopped talking and walked straight to Duanmu Qing.

Squatted down and looked at her and smiled gently, but there was a hint of pity in the smile.

Then he said to the emperor: "Duanhui Junjun has been kneeling for so long, can you get up now?" ”

The jump back and forth is so fast that it is almost impossible to turn.

The emperor glanced at the people on the ground: "What are you doing on your knees that are not guilty?" ”

Because of his anger, all the concubines fell to their knees, and when they heard this, they were helped up by their respective maids.

Duanmu Qing was originally kneeling straight, and all the weight was pressed on the kneecaps.

At this time, the two legs have long been numb as if they were not their own, and even if they want to get up, they can't do it.

As soon as I moved, my knee hurt and fell to the side.

As soon as he was about to use his hands to support the ground, the whole person was lifted up in the air.

couldn't help but let out a low breath, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Han Ling's smiling eyes.

"Your Majesty, her knees are numb and she can't stand up, Your Majesty is not to blame!"

Although he said this, he didn't even return his face, and hugged the beautiful woman to the side.

Such unscrupulousness, looking at the entire Xiqi, where is there a second one.

The emperor waved his hand with a faint smile, not minding at all.

When Duanmu Qing was gently placed on his chair by him, the atmosphere of the entire hall became strange.

Li Jingzi's eyes were full of resentment, she really couldn't understand why Duanmu Qing was so good.

In such a large hall, there is a man who cares for her desperately, and she faces the fear of death.

Duanmu Jun and Duanmu He couldn't help but smile, such a man should be the best for Qing'er!

But Zhao Yuhong felt that there was a dull place in his heart that was painful.

From this time, he knew how much strength this man who looked a little hanging.

Not everyone can understand this whole game in such a short time, let alone control it so well.

When he saw Han Lingxian and Jiang Chen drinking together, he realized that this man had already designed everything.

What's more, he is still so uninhibited, even in front of the emperor, he still does his own thing, with such an attitude, he can't ask himself.

In such a variety of eyes and expressions, Duanmu Qing clearly felt a trace of coldness, and a resentful gaze came towards them.

keenly captured that direction, and saw Han Yuyan sitting next to Zhao Yufeng.

And when she came into contact with Duanmu Qing's gaze, she didn't have any panic, but just moved away lightly, as if it was all her illusion.

"If it's not you, who could it be?"

After Han Ling's trouble, the emperor's anger disappeared a lot, and even the coldness in his tone was much less.

Li Jingzi's heart was a little calm, and her eyes showed pleading: "Your Majesty, you really are not a concubine, and the concubine is not familiar with the people of the ministry, how can you do it?" ”

Squinting slightly, the emperor seemed to be thinking about something, and slowly read out two words in his mouth: "Officials!" ”

Hearing these two words, the strings in the queen's heart suddenly tightened.
