Chapter 153
After about half an hour, Liang Huanqing slowly woke up, and Imperial Doctor Li breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked Qingyin to inform everyone.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Niangniang, Princess Jing is awake!" Qingyin hurriedly ran out and said with a smile to the masters who had been waiting outside for half an hour.
When Qi Wangshu heard this, he didn't care about the dignity and orderliness, and hurriedly ran in, but at this time, everyone didn't have time to pay attention to this.
Qi Wangshu ran to Liang Huanqing's bed and knelt on the ground, holding her hand, looking at her tired look, and looking like she was about to cry: "Huanqing... How are you? Still uncomfortable? Would you like to eat something? ”
Qi Wangshu felt sorry for Liang Huanqing who had been in the palace for so long, and he had never even used dinner, but he suffered such a big crime.
Liang Huanqing was weak, dizzy, her hand was cold, and Qi Wangshu held her hand, but it was very hot.
"Princess... What about Jiang Yi? When Liang Huanqing was unconscious, her mind kept replaying the appearance of Jiang Yi being killed in front of her, she kept crying and screaming to make Jiang Yi stop, but she shouted over and over again, Jiang Yi hit the hard wall again and again, and suddenly blood poured into it.
"Jiang Yi is dead." Qi Wangshu couldn't bear to tell her the truth of the matter, but he couldn't hide it until now, so he had to tell the truth.
Liang Huanqing didn't look at Qi Wangshu, but instead looked up at the top, slowly closed her eyes, tears flowed down from both sides, she let go of Qi Wangshu's hand and put it in the quilt.
"Huanqing... You don't want that. Qi Wangshu looked at her like this, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable, and his tears couldn't stop flowing down, "You don't want to be like this, it's my fault, I shouldn't have taken you into the palace, if it weren't for this, Jiang Yi wouldn't have died." ”
Qi Wangshu knew that Liang Huanqing valued love and righteousness, and she would never forget Jiang Yi for the rest of her life, and she would definitely be sad when she knew that Jiang Yi was dead.
Before Liang Huanqing fell into a coma, she and Jiang Yi were lying back to back in a pool of blood, and at this time, her body and hair bun were all stains of Jiang Yi's coagulated blood, and she smelled fishy, and she was afraid that she would not be able to wash it off in this life.
Liang Huanqing cried more and more sadly, she slowly covered the quilt over her head, not wanting so many people to see her crying silently.
She was crying silently, but when the quilt covered her head, there was a whimpering cry, and the quilt trembled with her crying.
"Huanqing... Huanqing, you don't want this. Qi Wangshu was worried that Liang Huanqing would kill her with the quilt inside, so he reached out to lift the quilt, but Liang Huanqing pressed the quilt tightly, and Qi Wangshu was weakly paralyzed and cried bitterly.
This scene moved everyone present, even Qi Bingyu was no exception.
He turned away from them, but the whimper in his ears lingered.
Lu Huiling watched the two of them cry like this, and remembered Ning Xue who had been serving him, if the person who died was Ning Xue, he must have been so uncomfortable.
But the top priority is to find out how Jiang Yi died, Lu Huiling knew that he did not kill Jiang Yi, at most he lynched her, and his strength did not lead to death, but now all kinds of signs show that Jiang Yi's death is inextricably linked to her, and the only thing that can be concluded is Liang Huanqing's confession.
Xia Rongxin couldn't bear to look at this scene, the older a person is, the more compassionate she feels, she stepped forward and patted Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing gently, Xia Rongxin knows that Liang Huanqing has lost her mother since she was a child, and her feelings will naturally be much more sincere, which is not difficult to explain why she was so anxious after Jiang Yi was arrested, she had to come to Minghuatang to ask for someone.
"Huanqing... Don't cry, the top priority is to find out who killed Jiang Yi, so that Jiang Yi and you can give an explanation. Xia Rongxin has always been sensible, and she wants to find out the real culprit as soon as possible, and it is inevitable that there will be some selfishness in this, and she concluded that this matter must have something to do with Lu Huiling.
Lu Huiling suddenly chuckled in her heart, and when she saw that Xia Rongxin was about to ask Liang Huanqing, she hurriedly cleared off the suspicion before that: "Since Princess Jing and Jiang Yi were imprisoned, the concubine has been sitting in the main hall waiting for Xu Lan to invite the emperor over, Jiang Yi must not have been killed by the concubine." ”
Qi Bingyu turned around and looked at them without saying a word, although he didn't say anything, but looking at them with a little inquiry, whether he was public or private, he wanted to know how Jiang Yi died as soon as possible.
Liang Huanqing was whimpering and crying in the quilt, she herself knew best how Jiang Yi died, but Jiang Yi's original intention before she died was to use her death to blame Lu Huiling, so as to exonerate Liang Huanqing from the charge of doing something to Lu Huiling.
"Huanqing... Did you come out and say yes? I'm worried about you like this..."Qi Wangshu patted Liang Huanqing lightly and slowly lifted the quilt.
Liang Huanqing obediently loosened the quilt, she looked at Xia Rongxin and Qi Wangshu sitting on the edge of the bed with teary eyes, and felt inexplicably relieved, at least in the palace, there were still people who would care about her life and death.
Qi Wangshu and Qingyin slowly helped Liang Huanqing to sit up, Liang Huanqing saw Lu Huiling behind everyone, her eyes instantly looked at Lu Huiling like a knife, and when she looked at Lu Huiling now, she just wanted to pull out her cramps and bones in order to relieve the hatred in her heart.
After Liang Huanqing sat down, Xia Rongxin said to Qi Bingyu politely: "Your Majesty, Huanqing has just woken up and is mentally weak, if you want to ask her, please let the concubines come and say hello?" ”
Everyone is on the scene, who asks, isn't it all the same?
Qi Bingyu nodded and said in a deep voice: "You must enforce the law impartially and must not engage in favoritism." ”
"The concubines obey the holy decree." Xia Rongxin blessed her body, then sat on the edge of Liang Huanqing's bed and touched her damp blood-stained bun.
"Concubine Ming said that you slapped her and strangled her neck in order to kill her, but is it all true?" Xia Rongxin's eyes are gentle, and her voice is as warm as jade, like a trickle, which makes people forget to return.
Liang Huanqing looked at Qi Wangshu, then at Lu Huiling, then at Xia Rongxin, nodded slowly, and said, "Yes." ”
Xia Rongxin turned around and glanced at Qi Bingyu, and then asked, "After Princess Wangshu left, what did Concubine Ming say to you, why are you so rude?" ”
"Concubine Ming said that she broke Jiang Yi's body into thousands of pieces and threw her into a mass grave." Liang Huanqing cried again as he spoke.
Lu Huiling's expression was a little unnatural, and she pinched the handkerchief in her hand and twisted it back and forth.
Xia Rongxin nodded, looked back at Lu Huiling, and asked, "Concubine Ming, can you explain why Princess Hejing said that?" ”
"The concubine was just joking with her, besides, the concubine didn't kill Jiang Yi, she just talked, Princess Jing's attitude was not good at that time, and the concubine was angry with her." Saying that, Lu Huiling glanced at Qi Bingyu's expression and said coquettishly to him, "The concubine didn't mean to. ”
Qi Bingyu looked at her and didn't speak, but what he thought in his heart was that it was just a joke, it didn't matter, and he didn't mean to blame her at all.
Xia Rongxin looked at Qi Bingyu, and saw that his eyes were still unfazed when he looked at Lu Huiling, and his heart sank, and he turned to Liang Huanqing and asked, "Then when Concubine Ming locked you up in the side hall, Jiang Yike was still alive?" ”
Liang Huanqing glanced at Qi Wangshu again, Qi Wangshu was also eager to know the answer at this time, just now Lu Huiling and Xu Lan both said that when they locked Liang Huanqing in the side hall, Jiang Yi was alive, Qi Wangshu didn't believe them, she just wanted to hear what Liang Huanqing said.
Liang Huanqing looked at Xia Rongxin, her eyes were full of tears, she nodded and said, "Yes." ”
As soon as she said this, Lu Huiling and Xu Lan both breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they could conclude that Jiang Yi had committed suicide, and they thought that they had done it for the sake of the Savior.
Although they thought so, they didn't say it, and they wanted to hear Xia Rongxin ask again.
When Qi Wangshu heard this, he was very surprised, could it really be as Lu Huiling said, Jiang Yi committed suicide?
"What was she like?" Xia Rongxin continued to ask.
"Jiang Yi... Jiang Yi was lying on the ground with her hands tied behind her back..."Liang Huanqing looked at Qi Wangshu, and tears finally flowed out again, "She was covered with whip marks." ”
They all saw this, when Jiang Yi's body was carried out, it was covered in blood, in addition to the blood stains that flowed from the cracked head, there were also countless whip marks on the body, and they were tortured before they died.
And Liang Huanqing and Jiang Yi's hands were tied behind their backs, Qi Wangshu was very angry when he saw it, how could Liang Huanqing also be the minister of the Third Duke, when was the princess of Chaojing, her status was noble, when could Lu Huiling and a little concubine be tied and imprisoned back? !
"But what did you do?" Xia Rongxin turned to look at Lu Huiling again, and asked word by word.
Lu Huiling struggled inwardly for a while, when she physically punished Jiang Yi at that time, she categorically didn't expect this to happen, but this matter was indeed done by her, and she stubbornly admitted: "Yes." Jiang Yi contradicted the concubines at that time, and should be punished according to the palace rules, and the concubines also followed the palace rules. ”
"Follow the palace rules?!" Qi Wangshu couldn't help but explode again, "I'm afraid this isn't a personal vendetta in the communiqué, right?!" Collide with the concubines and concubines with a maximum of 20 boards, but Jiang Yi has countless whip marks on his body, which is also called following the palace rules? Where are the palace rules of Concubine Ming?! Do you think this is the Land Prime Minister's Mansion! ”
"Wangshu!" Qi Bingyu couldn't help but scold, "You should be quiet and don't interject!" ”
Seeing that his father was so partial to Lu Huiling, Qi Wangshu turned around angrily and stopped looking at them, Lu Huiling was naturally happy in his heart, thinking that the emperor still didn't dislike her.
"Later, Concubine Ming said that after you were imprisoned, she never went to the side hall again, and at the same time, the side hall was unguarded, how did Jiang Yi die?" Xia Rongxin continued to ask.
"A eunuch has gone to check and confirmed that Jiang Yi committed suicide by hitting the wall, Princess Jing should answer cautiously." Lu Huiling was worried that Liang Huanqing would slander her, so she couldn't help but remind.
