Chapter 416: Keep a Hand
Ying Zhan tilted his face slightly, and then raised his feet and sat down.
After the emperor took his seat, Tianyan and the concubines continued to sit down.
Immediately afterwards, Dali Siqing came in with several subordinates.
After saluting the emperor and his concubines, he got down to business.
Dali Siqing: "Your Majesty, the ministers found out that the princess's maid was poisoned, and it was Xin Guifei who bribed a palace maid in Xiyan Palace, and the palace maid got along well with the nurse, so she secretly put down the 'yellow sand man' in the kettle of the nurse. ”
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone present were staring at Xin Guifei.
Qian Yan also looked sideways at Xin Guifei opposite, with anger in her eyes.
I saw Xin Guifei get up and say to the emperor at the top: "Your Majesty, the concubine and the concubine have no grievances, and the little princess is so cute, how can the concubine let people poison the little princess, this must be their mistake, and ask the emperor to make the decision for the concubine." ”
Even if Dali Siqing thought that it was Xin Gui Concubine who did it, this one did not rush to intercede, without a trace of panic.
The pure concubine on the side also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, Sister Xin Guifei is very good, since the concubine entered the palace, she has always taken good care of me, how could she harm the princess, is it a mistake in Dali Temple?" ”
The pure concubine and the Xin noble concubine have always gotten along well, and both of them live in the pear hall and have a friendship with each other under the same roof.
In addition, since beating her and the emperor to break up, the emperor has never seen her in the Tilting Pear Palace.
Even if she asked someone to send some meals and hand-made gadgets to the emperor, it was all in vain and there was no response.
In the past, the emperor would take the initiative to come to see her.
Not to mention making things by myself and sending them over, I will basically come to see her on the same day.
Today, the emperor hasn't looked at her since he entered the palace.
In addition to speaking for Concubine Xin, she also wanted to attract the emperor's attention.
However, the emperor still didn't look at her, and he didn't even pay attention to what the two of them said.
Seeing that Xin Gui Concubine didn't admit it, Dali Siqing said: "Xin Gui Concubine doesn't admit it and doesn't matter, so the minister will invite the human and material evidence." ”
As he spoke, he high-fived slightly, and a subordinate brought the palace maid in.
Looking at it, the palace maid is indeed a low-level palace maid in the Xiyan Palace, who usually cleans the yard.
In addition, a subordinate came in with a mahogany tray with a snow-white porcelain vase on it
The vase was small, the size of an adult's thumb.
When this pedestrian entered the house, Xin Guifei's face was not too calm.
His eyes began to dodge around, and he sat down with some weakness and did not shout any more grievances.
Dali Siqing said to the palace maid: "As for you, who instructed you to do it?" ”
The palace maid glanced around, and finally landed her eyes on the palace maid beside Xin Guifei.
She pointed to Xin Guifei's personal palace maid: "It was the palace maid next to Xin Guifei who found me and asked me to poison the princess's food, saying that this is not better than directly poisoning the princess, no one will find out." ”
"At that time, she gave me a pair of golden hairpins, and said that as long as it was done, Concubine Xin would find a way to let me go out of the palace and marry......"
"You talk nonsense!" Concubine Xin directly interrupted the palace maid's words, "This palace has never let the minions below do such a thing, don't pour dirty water on this palace as soon as you enter the house, say!" Is there someone who is jealous that Hongu is pregnant with a dragon heir, and deliberately asked you to frame Hongu?! ”
Concubine Xin could no longer sit down calmly, but walked to the middle and knelt down.
She said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, there must be someone who is jealous of the concubines, so they design to frame the concubines, they are not only for the concubines, but also for the imperial heirs in the concubines' wombs." ”
Speaking of which, she also stroked her stomach with her hand.
This is using the imperial heir in the belly to intercede with the emperor.
In the end, she also glared at Qian Yan and Zhang Meiren, and began to bite like a mad dog, "Maybe Concubine Qian has always held a grudge against her concubine because she intercepted her beard." ”
"Otherwise, it's Zhang Meiren, she is as pregnant as the concubine, and she wants to murder the concubine."
"Tiger poison does not eat children, if even your own children are so heavy-handed, isn't it a cold-blooded animal?" Regarding Xin Guifei's illogical words, he said coldly: "In this harem, although palace fights are inevitable, this palace never uses children as bargaining chips for palace fights, and never counts the emperor's heirs, regardless of whether it is someone else's child or my own." ”
"Therefore, I advise Concubine Xin not to talk about these things, rather than this, it is better to be cheerful and admit it as soon as possible."
The eyes of the masses are bright, and they are well-known in the harem over the years.
After listening to Dump Yan's words, everyone felt that Dump Yan was reasonable.
Many concubines think about it carefully, in the past few years, although the concubines are not easy to mess with, they really did not attack the imperial heirs of the harem.
Such a person, who doesn't even do other people's children, how can he bear to attack his own flesh and blood?
Even if you do it, that's what it means.
But the princess is so sick, it can't be the concubine's doing.
Zhang Meiren was dragged into this troubled water for no reason, and quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine and the concubine Xin Gui have no grievances or hatred, there is no reason to harm her." ”
Ying Zhan glanced at Zhang Meiren's stomach, waved her hand at Zhang Meiren, and motioned for Zhang Meiren to sit down.
Then he looked at Xin Guifei and said coldly: "Since Xin Guifei keeps saying that she was wronged, then it is even more important to let the people of Dali Temple explain it clearly." ”
Xin Guifei: "......"
It's not so much to make it clear, but to put all the evidence on the table and make her admit her guilt obediently.
Dali Siqing took a painting from his subordinates, "Your Majesty, this is the palace maid's identification of Xin Guifei's painting, which clearly states the transaction, time, and place between her and Xin Guifei." ”
As he spoke, he also pointed to the tray held by his subordinates, "And the small porcelain bottle on this tray contains the body of yellow sand." ”
As soon as the voice fell, the body of Xin Guifei, who was still pleading, was weak, and she almost couldn't kneel.
Now that there are human and material evidence, she can't run away from anything.
She glared at the maid viciously.
This little slut said at the time that he would destroy the evidence when the matter was completed.
As a result, I actually kept a hand, and I didn't want to pull her with me if I wanted to die!
The palace maid was glared at by Concubine Xin, a little timid.
She was worried that Concubine Xin would kill people, and she really thought about keeping her hand to save her life.
Or it is used to threaten Xin Guifei, if Xin Guifei refuses to arrange for her to leave the palace to marry in advance, she will have a trouble with Xin Guifei.
Who knows, at that time, after she poisoned the milk kettle as usual, Concubine Dumping made people block the Xiyan Palace without warning, and directly launched a carpet search.
Not long after, the people of Dali Temple also began to investigate.
If Concubine Dump had had some signs beforehand, she might have been able to destroy the evidence before the search.
