Chapter Eighty-Nine: Suicide in Fear of Crime
As the sun sets and night falls, a few startled birds fly out of the paddock from time to time, and their mournful chirping can be faintly heard.
Wang Zhaoyi twisted the snake's waist, danced the dance he had just learned, and fell into the emperor's arms with a smile in his eyes.
"Your Majesty~Come, the concubine feeds you~"
Twisting the orchid finger, Wang Zhaoyi lifted the wine glass, and the emperor couldn't take his eyes off it with a smile.
While Li Shaowu was playing with her, the powder hidden between her fingernails fell into the cup, and soon disappeared with her swaying.
Raising his hand to put the wine glass to the emperor's lips, Wang Zhaoyi tried every means to persuade him to drink, and the emperor was coaxed to be happy, it was cup after cup, and after a while, he fell asleep.
"The emperor~The emperor~ Don't sleep, come and play with the concubines~"
Even though Wang Zhaoyi spoke softly and lingered, Li Shaowu fell motionless in her arms, beckoning the eunuch to move him to the dragon bed behind the huge landscape screen, and Wang Zhaoyi waved his hand to let people out.
Looking at the sleeping man, Wang Zhaoyi's eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile in the corners of her eyes could no longer be hidden.
Pushing the sleeping Li Shaowu to the side, he began to grope for him, but he didn't find what she wanted, so he couldn't help but rummage between the boxes.
When digging out a half-piece tiger talisman from a box, Wang Zhaoyi showed a happy expression, but after getting up, he couldn't laugh.
"What are you doing here? I think I treat you well, and I am so disappointed that you dare to do such a rebellious thing! Come on, arrest me! ”
As his voice fell, many lanterns were immediately lit up in the originally dim tent, illuminating the tent brightly.
Originally, when Qin Puze came to report earlier, he thought that Shangguan Fei was too careful, but he never thought that he really caught Wang Zhaoyi, which made him feel cold.
If she steals the tiger talisman, there will definitely be turmoil over there.
Thinking of this, Li Shaowu's expression darkened, and the air pressure in the tent continued to drop.
Shangguan Feibai and Zuo Xiangling, who had been waiting for the news, finally waited for the result, and when they heard that they had caught someone, Zuo Xiangling's eyebrows couldn't help jumping, and they were really bumped into by her.
As one of the parties, she had to go even if she didn't want to.
As soon as she entered the emperor's tent, Zuo Xiangling felt that the whole person was tense, and she looked at the palace maids and eunuchs standing in the tent, all of them holding their breath, for fear of making a little noise and angering the already angry emperor.
"Son-in-law, see father."
Shangguan Feibai knelt down and saluted, and Zuo Xiangling followed behind him and bowed.
"Flat."
Li Shaowu waved his hand, frowning, anyone who saw him knew that he was very impatient at this time.
Shangguan Feibai took Zuo Xiangling to sit on one side of the tent, and Zuo Xiangling dared to look at Wang Zhaoyi who was kneeling on the ground.
Although Wang Zhaoyi's eyes were a little flustered, the whole person was calm, as if she was still the concubine who was favored by the emperor.
"Tell me, why did you steal my talisman, and who did you hand it over, if you recruit it, I can still treat you lightly."
Li Shaowu held the golden silk teacup in one hand, raised his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Zhaoyi, his eyes were full of gloom.
"The emperor misunderstood, the concubine just got the news earlier, there are people with bad intentions coveting this talisman, I wanted to make sure if the talisman is safe, but I didn't think that the emperor woke up, so I made this joke."
After Wang Zhaoyi finished sneering, she turned her gaze and fell on Shangguan Feibai's body, as if the person she was talking about was Shangguan Feibai.
When Li Shaowu heard this, he snorted coldly, and immediately smashed the golden silk teacup, which only fell on Wang Zhaoyi's body by a fraction.
The tea had just been brewed, and it was steaming hot when it fell to the ground, which made the already nervous little bit more hot, and many of the eunuchs and palace maids standing in the corner were drenched in a thin layer of sweat.
Zuo Xiangling also sat on the chair with half of her ass and didn't dare to make a sound, but dared to secretly look at it with her spare eyes.
"Since you don't want to tell the truth, then let your palace maid talk about it."
It seemed that he was dissatisfied with Wang Zhaoyi's death and wanted to quibble for himself, Li Shaowu raised his eyes and glanced at Yang Ling, the big eunuch beside him, Yang Ling shouted, and the guards came in with a woman in an orange palace uniform.
"See Your Majesty."
While speaking, the palace maid seemed to be scared, and her body trembled non-stop, which made Li Shaowu even more displeased.
Seeing this, Yang Ling, who was beside him, hurriedly pinched his throat and said a word.
"Don't hurry up and tell the truth what you have seen and heard."
After finishing speaking, the palace maid dared to raise her head slightly, and now she glanced at Li Shaowu, who was sitting in a high position, and quickly retracted her gaze, and finally landed on Wang Zhaoyi's body.
"Back to Your Majesty, last night, last night, the maid gave Zhaoyi Niangniang a bird's nest soup to eat before going to bed, but she heard Zhaoyi Niangniang talking to a man outside the account, and that man asked Zhaoyi Niangniang to find an opportunity to steal the talisman from His Majesty.
The maid knew that this matter was very important, and happened to meet this girl, and a few days ago the slave maid had seen this girl with His Royal Highness King Jing, so she informed His Majesty of the matter through His Royal Highness King Jing.
I also hope that Your Majesty will read it for the sake of the slave maid and the maid in time, let go of the people in Qingyue Palace, Zhaoyi Niangniang does not leave anyone by her side when she rests on weekdays, we don't know that there is such a thing. ”
After speaking, the palace maid threw her whole body on the ground, and her voice was sad.
"Is there anything else you'd like to say?"
Li Shaowu fell on Wang Zhaoyi's face, and when he saw Wang Zhaoyi's lips slightly hooked, looking at him with a mocking expression, he couldn't help but feel angry, and his whole face tensed.
"Heh, I really didn't expect that it was broken by you, a little slut, even so, the concubine has nothing to justify.
This treasury has long been empty because of the perennial war, so he did not hesitate to reduce the offering of the harem by two, and most of the battles with the northern Xiongnu will be lost.
That is to say, without the talisman, this battle will not be able to be fought in a few months, although we may lose the country, but at least we can have a peaceful life.
Since it was broken, then I don't have to live anymore, and as for the people behind me, you will never know for the rest of your life, hahaha! ”
At the end, Wang Zhaoyi smiled, so chic, just when everyone was subdued by her smile, she suddenly pulled off the golden hairpin on her head, and suddenly inserted it into her white neck.
The next moment, Wang Zhaoyi's whole person seemed to lose his strength in an instant, his body softened, and he fell to the side.
Zuo Xiangling was fascinated, and it took a while to realize that Wang Zhaoyi committed suicide after confessing, looking at the emperor on the throne.
His eyes were about to split, his eyes were full of scarlet, and he seemed to be angered by Wang Zhaoyi's words before he died, and the green tendons of his hands holding the dragon chair burst out, as if he would crush the dragon's head under his hand in the next second.
