Chapter 405: Human Nature
Bai promised to say that everything was true, and his expression looked even more serious, but it made people suspicious.
Zhao Yufeng looked at Bai Promise, who swore an oath, and believed that she was asking for her life for Ji Promise, and couldn't help but fall into silence.
"Imperial Doctor Jiang, do you know that it is a capital crime to not report it and conceal it. Not just a capital crime, but most likely to implicate the clansmen? ”
Zhao Yufeng saw that Imperial Doctor Jiang didn't intend to tell the truth, so he said lightly, but Jiang Qi's face turned completely gray with fright.
A pair of cloudy eyes, the pupils trembled violently in the sockets, obviously very scared, he panicked, but he still couldn't say a word.
"Minister......
Jiang Qi trembled very much, but he trembled and couldn't say a word.
Zhao Yufeng subconsciously glanced at Concubine Min beside him at this time, but Concubine Min was still calm and couldn't see anything wrong.
She looked at Jiang Qi coldly, her whole person was calm and composed, no matter how she looked at it, it seemed that it had nothing to do with this matter.
"Minister......
Jiang Qi was hesitant, and he still couldn't say anything.
After a while, as if he had made some important decision, his face suddenly became resolute, and the old voice echoed in the quiet hall.
"The minister said, this matter is spontaneous and has nothing to do with anyone. The minister knows that his sin deserves death, and he apologizes for his sin with death! ”
As soon as he finished saying this, Jiang Qi directly hit his head on the purple gold incense burner on the side.
"Bang-" sounded, before everyone could react to what was going on, Jiang Qi's whole person had already fallen down in a state of anger, such a bloody scene directly frightened all the concubines to scream.
And Bai Yi, who was beside Jiang Qi, was the most frightened, who could stand the blood splashed so close to him like this? Directly he was frightened and turned white, and his mouth was slightly open but he couldn't make a sound.
She could even feel a hint of coldness on her face, but she didn't dare to wipe it with her hands, for fear that she would see her hands covered with blood when she took it down.
She wanted to cry, but she couldn't, fear took over almost her whole body and mind, and it was like a wooden man's pestle there.
Zhao Yufeng squinted his eyes, and he didn't expect Jiang Qi to be able to make such a move.
But it just happens to prove that this matter is problematic, Jiang Qi did this, sacrificing himself, but he could protect the people behind him and his own people.
I have to say that it is also strong......
"Go ahead, Bai promised to help him up."
Zhao Yufeng said lightly, and the people waiting next to him immediately stepped forward to help Bai Yu, who was paralyzed, up, but even so, she still couldn't stand steadily.
After being supported for a while, Bai promised to open his mouth tremblingly, but his eyes were still sloppy, obviously frightened.
"Your Majesty...... What the concubine said is true, but I don't know why Jiang Qi did it like this...... The concubine didn't force him to ......"
Jiang Qi's move was so sudden, Bai Yu didn't expect that he would dare to do such a thing in the residence of a concubine like Luoxia Palace, which really scared everyone.
She was very afraid that Zhao Yufeng would blame herself for all such faults, as if she had forced Jiang Qi to do this.
"I know."
Zhao Yufeng can naturally see that he is a little tired, but he thinks that Bai Promise may really just ask for Ji Promise, and the rest are just accidents.
"What you said, I will ask someone to check it carefully, if Ji promised to be wronged, I naturally won't let her continue to accept such grievances."
Bai promised to hear Zhao Yufeng say this, and finally felt more relieved in his heart, with Zhao Yufeng's words, it can be said that it is much better.
She nodded in some surprise, pretending to be pleased.
"Good...... The concubine thanked His Majesty. ”
"Well, let's go down and change your clothes."
Saying that, Zhao Yufeng glanced at Jiang Qi's corpse that fell to the ground with some disgust, then beckoned and called the people outside.
"Hurry up and clean up this place, and don't be too unlucky."
It's not strange that people are killed in the harem, and these palace people are also calm when they see such a scene, and they clean up Luoxia Palace.
After such a trip, these individuals no longer dared to laugh or laugh, and when they witnessed such a bloody scene, their faces were very ugly.
Li Meiren covered her mouth and nose with her own handkerchief, but her tightly knit brows still showed that she was somewhat uncomfortable, but An Changzai couldn't help but retching at the spittoon held by the palace maid next to her, Cao Meiren's face was not very good, but it was still calm, and the quietest thing was none other than Concubine Min on the side.
Zhao Yufeng subconsciously glanced at Concubine Min, and saw that although her expression was indifferent, she looked like she was slightly distracted, so she couldn't help but ask.
"Concubine Min, what are you thinking?"
Concubine Min came back to her senses under Zhao Yufeng's voice call, looked at Zhao Yufeng with a little sadness, and asked in person.
"Can Your Majesty be suspicious of your concubines because of Jiang Qi's words?"
Zhao Yufeng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled with relief.
"How could it be, if there is no evidence, why should I believe that Jiang Qi? This matter still needs to be properly investigated, and then it is good to speak with evidence. ”
Concubine Min slowly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly.
"That's good, it's just that the concubine feels a little bitter in her heart."
Zhao Yufeng heard this and asked rhetorically.
"Why does Concubine Min suffer?"
Concubine Min said and slowly locked her eyebrows from the distant mountains, and said with some sadness.
"The concubine has been in the palace for a long time, although she just came in, but she didn't think about offending anyone. His Majesty handed over the power of the concubines to take care of the six palaces, and the concubines were also trembling, and they always adhered to their duties and did not dare to have the slightest trespassing, and these were also watched by the people below. ”
The concubine asked herself if she was sorry for anyone, but why did she just point at the concubine for such a thing? said that the concubine was the mastermind behind Xia Shangyi? ”
said that Concubine Min was becoming more and more aggrieved, with tears in the corners of her eyes, looking like she was about to cry.
"The concubine is strange, what kind of person hates the concubine so much, and wishes it was to deal with the concubine as soon as possible? What kind of grudge does the concubine have with Xia Shangyi? I don't have to go to such great lengths to hurt her. ”
Zhao Yufeng could also hear that Concubine Min was very aggrieved now, so he hurriedly comforted her.
"It came suddenly, and it was indeed a definite number. I have already promised you that I must investigate this matter carefully and see what is going on, so that I can give an explanation. ”
Saying that, Zhao Yufeng took Concubine Min's hand and rubbed it back and forth several times as if soothing.
"Don't worry, I naturally won't wronged you."
Hearing Zhao Yufeng's promise, Concubine Min rarely burst into tears and laughed, as if she was relaxed.
She looked at the concubines with different looks around her, and coughed softly.
"Sisters, although it is very undesirable, but today it is true that such a thing happened, and I am really sorry as an older sister. But now, let's ask the sisters to go back first, something like this happened in Luoxia Palace, and it has to be cleaned well. ”
With Concubine Min's words, it can be said that the hearts of several other people have been said, and if something like this happens, none of them can stay anymore, and they are all eager to leave here.
Hearing Concubine Min take the initiative to mention this matter, they all stood up from their seats impatiently.
"Since my sister said so, then my sister will retire first."
After speaking, several people left Luoxia Palace one by one as if they had lost their souls, and only Zhao Yufeng and Concubine Min were left in the hall for a while.
Concubine Min thought that things would be fine at such a point, but when she turned around, she found that Zhao Yufeng's face was also very gloomy.
Concubine Min knew that Zhao Yufeng was probably also because of this matter, so she stepped forward and asked softly.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter? I hadn't seen His Majesty look so worried. ”
Summoned back to his senses by Concubine Min's words, Zhao Yufeng glanced at Concubine Min with a somewhat complicated expression, this is the way.
"Not really...... It's just hard to imagine that something like this is happening around you. ”
Concubine Min was a little stunned, and she didn't know why Zhao Yufeng suddenly said such a thing.
"Your Majesty...... What's going on? ”
Zhao Yufeng was silent for a moment, his eyes gloomy.
At this time, his eyes were full of clouds, as if thousands of thoughts were surging.
After a while, Zhao Yufeng stepped on and spoke.
"I grew up in the palace since I was a child, and the concubines are deceitful and intrigued. I don't know what they're doing this for, who they're singing all day long, and even playing one play after another, and I've ever wondered if people's hearts are really so sinister? ”
As he spoke, Zhao Yufeng glanced at Concubine Min with far-reaching eyes and asked.
"Concubine Min, you say, are the women of the harem really going to do whatever it takes to get these so-called power and status?"
A fierce light flashed in Concubine Min's eyes, but it was only for a moment, so fast that Zhao Yufeng almost didn't notice it.
In the eyes of Concubine Min, Zhao Yufeng asked a question that he knew the answer to.
But even so, she still smiled and said to Zhao Yufeng gently.
"Your Majesty, people die for money, and birds die for food, this is the eternal truth between heaven and earth. Man is naturally the cloud, and he wants to ride the wind and climb to a higher place, which is human nature, Your Majesty. ”
