"What do you say? Is the demon still refusing to recruit?! The emperor's headache was cured, and he began to interrogate Yunbo for cursing himself.

"When he returned to the saint, he refused to say anything, just laughed." Qu Qing replied helplessly on the side.

"Why didn't you torture him?" The emperor was very angry when he heard this.

"I've used it," Qu Qing said, "I've already used six kinds of punishments." ”

"He still laughed when he was tortured?" The emperor asked.

"He fell asleep during the torture," Qu Qing said cautiously: "No matter how he was tortured, he snored like thunder." ”

"So, it's a demon." The emperor sneered when he heard this: "In this case, let's torture others first, it is impossible for these people to be all ironclad." ”

It turned out that the reason why Yunbo was able to enter the palace was because of the joint recommendation of many senior monks. Now that he has committed a crime, the people who recommended him have naturally been arrested.

"The minions have already interrogated all these people, and they all said that they were deceived by Yunbo." Qu Qing hurriedly said: "This Yunbo came to the capital three years ago, because he was born with fairy wind bones, eloquence is excellent, and he is quite accomplished in magic, so it didn't take long for him to be familiar with the two Buddhism and Taoism in the capital. People thought that he had no desires and no desires, but they valued him more. Where did you think that he actually harbored evil intentions and actually did such a disobedient thing. ”

"Do you think these people are telling the truth or not?" The emperor asked.

"According to the foolish opinion of the minion, it doesn't seem like a lie," Qu Qing said after groaning slightly, "After all, the risks here are too great, and some can't be committed." ”

"Well, I will make a will. I order the Criminal Department to intervene in this matter and work with you to find out the truth of this matter. The emperor said: "As for the others, let them go after a few more days, after all, these people are all elders in various temples and Taoist temples, and they must always take care of some decency." ”

"The slave commands, let's do it." Qu Qing said and retreated.

Runzhi Palace, Sun Mingming came to see Concubine Zeng Li again.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, what are you busy with?" Concubine Zeng asked Sun Mingming with a smile.

"I'm busy cutting silk," Sun Mingming replied, "I'm going to give it to my mother." ”

"Oh? What kind of fresh color is it? Concubine Zeng asked casually.

"It's a piece of plain silk," Sun Mingming said, "and there is nothing of color." ”

"It must be a great piece of material." Concubine Zeng Li's easy-going expression made her bewitching face look very pure and kind.

"The material is naturally good, otherwise it wouldn't be worthy of your identity and beauty." Sun Mingming said and presented it.

"Miss Sun, don't you take the wrong one in a hurry when you came, right?" The palace maid next to Concubine Zeng Li couldn't help but smile when she saw the material presented by Sun Mingming: "This piece of material is long enough, but unfortunately it is too narrow, and even a skirt can't be made." ”

Sun Mingming sent a piece of white silk, ten feet long, but less than three feet wide. It seems to be leftovers, no wonder the palace maid said she took the wrong one.

"That's right, that's what I'm going to give to my mother." Sun Mingming's expression remained unchanged: "Niangniang doesn't need it now, and she will use it in the future." ”

"What do you mean by that?!" Before Concubine Zeng Li could speak, the palace maid next to her asked Sun Mingming sharply: "I sent this thing without a head or tail, and said that Niang Niang will need it in the future." Are you a peace of mind spell? Who gave you such guts?! ”

Anyone who looks at this white silk looks like it was used for suicide, and it is so narrow that it can't be thought of there.

In the face of the palace maid's questioning, Sun Mingming's expression did not change, which made Concubine Zeng Li interested.

"Miss Sun, what do you mean by giving me this white silk?" Concubine Zeng Li was not angry, her self-cultivation was indeed good.

"I gave this thing to Niangniang to make you remember Yang Guifei." Sun Mingming straightened her back and said, "I think about how favored Concubine Yang was at the beginning, three thousand favors in one, sisters and brothers are all in the land. But after all, he couldn't resist Ma Wei's mutiny, and he was given to die in front of the horse. ”

"Am I similar to Concubine Yang?" Concubine Zeng Li smiled and asked: "She has brothers and sisters and I am alone, not to mention that I don't want to be favored alone, and I don't dare to let the king not come to court early." ”

"Niangniang may feel that she is not like Concubine Yang, but in the eyes of many people, there is no difference between you and her." Sun Mingming was aggressive: "Just like the queen mother, she must have thought that you were framing her behind her back." Is the mother going to explain that she is willing to listen? Do you believe it? In the queen's heart, the emperor pampered you and obeyed you, so when the emperor accused her, she would naturally think that you provoked it. ”

"The queen is the master, I am the servant, if she blames me and punishes me, I have no complaints." Concubine Zeng Li said with some resignation.

"If it's just blame and light punishment, it's okay," Sun Mingming sneered, "I'm afraid I won't even leave you a way to live." ”

"So you send this to me." Concubine Zeng Li pointed to the white silk on the table.

"That's right, I just want you to know that compromises can only lead to a dead end." Sun Mingming's expression was solemn.

"But what does my life or death have to do with you?" Concubine Zeng Li looked at Sun Mingming puzzled: "You are now Princess Yuhua's companion, and you should look forward to the concubine's goodness." ”

"Niang Bingxue is smart, it's a pity not to be a queen." Sun Mingming smiled: "Xu Guifei won't take me in her eyes, I am at best the daughter of a stinky copper merchant in her eyes." But you are different, since I entered the palace, only you have treated me as a human being. I think you also know that I am the opposite of Wei Yining, I have been oppressed by them for a long time, and it is impossible for the concubine to support me. After all, the relationship between her and the queen for so many years is reasonable, and it is not as tense as between you and the queen. ”

"You're the head of analysis." Concubine Zeng Li listened with relish: "But I won't hurt anyone." ”

"I didn't ask my mother to harm others, I just told you to protect yourself and not be calculated." Sun Mingming said: "Niangniang may be disgusted with me because of this, but I have no complaints. After all, I am loyal to my ears, and I use this to repay my mother's kindness, and I have no regrets in my heart. ”

"Wei Yining is a very good girl, although she is alienated from me now," Zeng Lifei smiled innocently: "You can't involve me and the queen just because you don't deal with her." ”

"Niangniang, do you think I'm acting out of selfishness?" Sun Mingming couldn't help but smile after listening to Concubine Zeng Li's words: "Wei Yining is really smart, not only does the queen trust her, but the concubine can't do anything about her, even you give her such praise, no wonder I was bullied by her." ”
