Chapter 240
"Concubine Mei herself said that this matter was done by the nobles, why don't you believe it!" Lu Hui was in a hurry, she looked at Liang Huanqing with a look of imminent victory, and her heart was angry and anxious.
"When did Hongu say it!" Xia Rongxin saw that Lu Huiling was going to put the blame on herself, and she didn't plan to continue to be silent, so she turned to look at Qi Bingyu and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine didn't know that Concubine Ming had the credit behind this matter, and besides, the concubine did her best to manage the feast, no matter how she couldn't prevent it, for all kinds of reasons, she still had to wait until Princess Jing's evidence arrived, after all, the princess and the princess were the real victims!" ”
"Evidence evidence, what is the evidence that Princess Jing said, now that the people involved in the case are here, why is Mei Guifei seeking evidence that does not exist at all, Xue Guiren is here, don't you ask!" Lu Huiling's emotions gradually became excited, she pointed to the nobleman and said to her, "You say! Tell them how you planned this case, how you used Concubine Mei, what you wanted to achieve, and why you framed me! You say! ”
Yin Zhi was stunned for a moment, she was instantly pushed to the forefront by Lu Huiling, and at this time Liang Huanqing already knew that Yin Zhi was instructed by Lu Huiling, as long as Lu Huiling always had what Yin Zhi cared about, he didn't have to think about being able to get the truth from Yin Zhi's mouth at all.
However, everyone was really led astray by Lu Huiling, and even Qi Bingyu stared at Yin Xue and asked, "Since that's the case, you can talk about it." ”
Liang Huanqing stared at the emperor with wide eyes in astonishment: Didn't you say that you would wait for her evidence? But after so long, the evidence has not yet come, and Liang Huanqing himself is a little flustered.
Yin Zhi raised his head, looked at the high monarch, and reluctantly leaned over and kowtowed first, so as to give himself a buffer time.
Everyone watched her slowly raise her head, a plain white face with a little tear stains, her eyes were pure and thorough, Qi Bingyu had only seen her cherry mouth similar to Empress Mingxian before, but she didn't notice that Yin Xue had such a pair of pearl-like clear and pure eyes, this glance, I saw pity, like a pearl in the sky, it was amazing.
"Now, the concubine doesn't want to hide it from everyone anymore... Your Majesty, the concubine deserves death! The sins committed are more than innocent! Yin Xue said slowly.
Liang Huanqing watched Yin Zhi admit his crime, surprised, but also a trace of indignation and distress, why did Yin Zhi agree to Lu Huiling to do such a hurtful thing, although Yin Zhi is not the mastermind, but in this case, Yin Zhi also played an indelible role.
Everyone looked at Yin Xue and was surprised that this woman in the deep palace actually had such ambition and city government.
But Qi Wangshu was paying attention to Liang Huanqing's expression, Liang Huanqing turned his head to look at Yin Xu, Qi Wangshu turned sideways to look at Liang Huanqing's side face, she was too worried that Liang Huanqing would be impulsive, as expected, when Yin Xue said that sentence, Liang Huanqing suddenly turned around to say something to the emperor, but Qi Wangshu grabbed her hand and shook his head at Liang Huanqing.
Qi Wangshu thought, now Yin Zhi is also innocent, if they deceive the emperor more, when Liang Zhi and they come, they can also slap their faces forcefully, if Yin Zhi doesn't say anything at this time, then Lu Huiling will definitely chase and bite Liang Huanqing, but let her talk, so that they can give them enough time to wait for Liang Liang and them to come back.
Xia Rongxin never thought that Yin Zhi, who had just denied it repeatedly, now admitted it, but Lu Huiling looked at the emperor with a very aggrieved look and shouted: "Your Majesty! Now you have to call the shots for your concubines! ”
In a few words, Lu Huiling brought the topic to Yin Zhi again.
Qi Bingyu looked at Yin Xue and asked, "Why did you do this!" ”
As he spoke, he slapped the handle on the dragon chair angrily, the failure of this banquet made him lose face in front of the envoys of all countries, and also made the Celestial Empire lose face in front of other countries!
He never thought that this matter would actually be done by Yin Xu, a woman in the harem!
When Yin Zhi heard the emperor's words, he was so frightened that his internal organs were trembling, his hands were supported on the ground, and he kept trembling, and his body was almost soft and couldn't kneel.
"Concubine Mei! I give you the right to be in charge of the harem! That's how you repay me! The sins of the nobles! It is inextricably linked to your lack of strictness! Qi Bingyu's entire chest was burning, and he pointed at Xia Rongxin and scolded again.
"The concubine is guilty." Xia Rongxin hurriedly leaned down and knelt down, not daring to say more, whether this matter had anything to do with her or not, since it was an accident that happened in her hands, then it was her responsibility.
This is why Lu Huiling feels that this plan has the effect of killing two birds with one stone, and the situation in front of him is really in line with Lu Huiling's wishes.
Liang Huanqing looked at all this anxiously, wanting to raise his head and explain the truth to the emperor, but at this moment, Qi Wangshu tightly pulled Liang Huanqing to prevent her from saying it, and they checked and supported each other like this.
"Say it! Why the hell are you doing this! Qi Bingyu asked Yin Xue sharply.
Yin Xue was startled, his whole body was trembling, at this time Lu Gaohong coughed a few times, everyone knew that he was not in good health, and it was inevitable that he would be a little uncomfortable after kneeling on the ground for a long time, so he didn't care much, but the prince Qi Jingyang looked at Lu Gaohong with a worried face, and he was a little worried in his heart.
Lu Gaohong's cough became a powerful threat when it reached Yin Zhi's ears, Yin Zhi knew that his father was able to survive because of Lu Gaohong's help, Lu Gaohong was reminding himself not to forget that he could rescue Yin Renzhao and give him a good old age, and he could also let him live in pain from now on.
Yin Zhi has done so much before, in the end, he still wants to give his family a stable life, and now that he has reached this point, he will die after all, so it is better to be happy.
"Your Majesty... Since the concubines entered the palace eight years ago, the number of times they have seen the emperor is only a handful, more than 2,600 days and nights, and the concubines have spent their time in the Lanyuan Pavilion..."Yin Zhi smiled weakly, and now what can be used as an excuse and motivation is only jealousy that cannot be put on the table.
"I'm jealous, jealous that Concubine Mei is deeply valued by the emperor, and jealous that Concubine Ming is young and beautiful, and is deeply favored by the emperor. All of this is what I longed for but couldn't get..."Yin Xue said slowly.
"I don't want to live like this anymore, every winter in Orchid Pavilion, I have to count how many days the charcoal fire is enough, and whether I want Ah Xun to go to the Internal Affairs Office to ask for charcoal! I don't want to live anymore..."Yin Zhi smiled, she laughed at herself, these words can't be put on the table, they are all women's sensitive thoughts, they are the excuses she used to apologize for Lu Huiling, and they are also her true words.
"Everyone else says that the palace is a place to eat people, I didn't believe it before entering the palace, but now I do..."Yin Zhi raised his head and looked at Qi Bingyu, smiled, and slowly stood up and said.
"I did all this, the involvement system that I instigated Mei Guifei to change, and I approached Mei Guifei step by step, deliberately trying to frame her! It was the feather arrow that I replaced, and it was I who instructed the palace maid to say that sentence to the princess and princess to write off Concubine Ming! I did everything! Since I had this idea, I haven't thought about living, that Yin Zhi has already died in the draft eight years ago! ”
Yin Zhi stood up straight, her eyes were not afraid of Qi Bingyu at all, her eyes met with him, and the anger in his eyes could be felt across a large hall.
"Are you weird?!" Qi Bingyu said such a sentence for a long time, he couldn't believe that there would be a woman in the harem who spoke to him like this in this life.
