Chapter Seventy-Four: Who Gave You the Courage?
The kneeling little eunuch was slapped, and hurriedly got up and knelt down at Concubine Jia's feet again.
"The slave is guilty, the slave deserves to die, please Concubine Jia's anger." The little eunuch kept begging for mercy.
He was also ruthless at the time, which Cheng thought that one of them was so fateful, he should have confirmed that he was out of breath before leaving, but now it has become his own life talisman.
"Don't worry, the slave maid heard that Li Defu, the former head of the imperial dining room, was demoted because Yu Qing handed over a message to the emperor, so she hated Yu Qing very much and wanted to put her to death."
When Concubine Jia heard this, she grabbed Xiuchun's hand, and Xiuchun who grabbed it hurt, and she didn't dare to make a sound.
Concubine Jia looked at Xiuchun like a savior, "Go, go quickly, take care of the side of the Punishment Division, how much silver is enough." ”
Needless to say, Xiuchun also knows how to do it.
When Xiuchun went out, Concubine Jia saw that the little eunuch was still kneeling, raised her legs, and kicked the bottom of the thick flower pot on the little eunuch's shoulder.
"Get out of the palace and get thirty boards, do you want to stay here and die in the palace?!"
"The slave obeys, the slave obeys, Concubine Xie Jia." Rolling out the door.
Fu Ankang got the news and hurried to the imperial study.
After being tortured by the Criminal Division, the maid confessed that she was instructed by Li Defu to drugged Concubine Zhen's food.
It turned out that Li Defu knew that he was removed because of Yu Qing's words, and he always held a grudge against Yu Qing and wanted to take revenge, so he sent two maids to mix in among the people who entered Tsinghua Garden to serve.
When Fu Ankang said that when he listened to the emperor, the emperor didn't remember who Li Defu was.
Seeing this, Xue Gui stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, when Qing Guiren was still the escort of the imperial court, because his friends in the imperial dining room were bullied and unhappy, you specially ordered to promote that person to be the head of the imperial dining room, and the one who was replaced was Li Defu." ”
"Ridiculous! Why does my will implicate others! ”
Because of this, he used such vicious means to do great rebellion, and if such a person let him live in the world, he, the emperor, would not have to do it.
The emperor's angry words, Fu Ankang and Xue Gui can only listen, who dares to take over. You love the house and the position of the Wuti people, but who dares to record the grievances on the head of the Son of Heaven.
The emperor didn't expect that everything was because of his love for Yu Qing that she had many disasters today.
But since ancient times, how can any king admit that he has made a mistake, and can only turn all his anger on the culprit.
In anger, he ordered the Shen Criminal Division to immediately take the person, torture him, and make sure to confess.
How do you know that the guards of the Shen Xing Division have long been beaten with gold and silver by Concubine Jia, and when they went to the imperial dining room to get people, they directly blocked Li Defu's mouth with a coarse cloth, and took a heavy punishment back to Shen Xing Sima.
After Li Defu couldn't stand the punishment and fainted, he lifted his finger and drew a charge on the confession that had been written long ago.
In the end, it was accepted to the royal case, and was criticized by the emperor's royal pen Zhu, and the nine clans were punished, so far, the case is thoroughly understood.
Poor Li Defu, although he held a grudge against Yuqing, he also wanted to take revenge, but before he could make a move, he was used by Concubine Jia and became a substitute for the dead, and he didn't understand what crime he had committed until he died.
The emperor decreed that Li Defu was punished by the nine clans, and at the same time ordered someone to release Yu Qing.
After thinking about it, after all, it was because of one of his own wills that caused today's situation. Concubine Zhen is dead, and he can't make amends, so he can only pay more to their children in the future.
But Yu Qing was wrongfully imprisoned by him, so he decided to take her back to the palace in person.
Fu Ankang was present at the time and asked to go together, and the emperor remembered that he had made a contribution to solving the case, and he did not care about him.
But I don't want a few people to see this scene after they arrive.
The prison was dark and damp, and Yu Qing lay on a broken straw mat with a bloodless face, and the prison clothes on his body were stained with blood.
"You dare to torture her, who gave you the guts!" The corners of Fu Ankang's eyes were red, and the blood shot skyrocketed.
"The emperor forgives the sin, the Fu Lord forgives the sin, the slave thinks it is an ordinary prisoner, so he will be punished a little, which Cheng thinks it is the noble master in the palace, the slave should die, ask the emperor to punish."
When the group arrived at the prison, the guards on duty were frightened and knelt on the ground, especially the two jailers and guards, who were even more at a loss at the moment, but they didn't dare to shake Concubine Hua out, otherwise there was really only one way to die.
Ignoring Xue Gui's dissuasion, the emperor stepped forward and picked up Yu Qing and walked out, "Fu Ankang, this is handed over to you, those who use torture without authorization will be severely punished!" ”
"Yes!" When he saw Yu Qing's appearance, Fu Ankang was very distressed, he wanted to pick her up and leave like the emperor, but he couldn't, he was not qualified, he could only punish those who hurt her.
"Lynching without permission, each person will receive eighty boards, and all existing positions will be removed!"
The three of them are stupid, but they just punished a little nobleman, eighty big boards, although it is not fatal, it is estimated that they will live paralyzed for the rest of their lives, not to mention any position.
The emperor carried Yu Qing all the way back to the Qianqing Palace, Xue Gui was very discerning and went to the hospital as soon as he was released from prison to pass the doctor, and when the emperor entered the dormitory, the doctor had been waiting for a long time.
The emperor hugged Yu Qing carefully all the way, for fear that the action would be too big and hurt her wounds, and after putting it down, he even exempted the imperial doctor from saluting and asked him to treat Yu Qing as soon as possible.
The imperial doctor saw that the emperor was like this, how dare he slack off, and he attached so much importance to it, even the queen had never done it.
The sweat on the imperial doctor's head came down, first, the emperor had been staring at him, and second, the situation of this noble person was not good.
"Back to the emperor." The imperial doctor trembled, "The wound of the noble man has been delayed for a day, and it has already suppurated, and the prison is cold, and the noble man has a high fever and can't wake up now." ”
Before he finished speaking, Tianzi Longwei suppressed him a little breathlessly, raised his hand to wipe his sweat, and considered his words more carefully.
"The high fever is easy to go away, but this wound is soaked in chili pepper water, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will leave a scar."
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "The scar is okay, try your best to heal it." ”
There are no precious medicinal materials in the palace, the scar can be removed slowly, and the person who is important at the moment can wake up.
The imperial doctor returned to the hospital to grab medicine, and the emperor sat on the edge of Yuqing's bed and watched her.
Lian, who was originally pale and bloodless, turned red because of fever, his hand was attached to his forehead, and the emperor frowned, so hot.
"Bring a basin of water."
When Xue Gui heard this, he immediately ordered the palace maid to fetch water.
When the basin came, the palace maid soaked a white handkerchief in it and soaked it, then took it out and wrung out the excess water, and folded it into a long strip to cool down on Yu Qing's forehead.
Halfway through the hand, he was picked up by a pair of bony thugs, "Give me, come me." ”
Xue Gui gave the palace maid a look, and the two retreated silently.
The emperor put the veil on Yu Qing's forehead, covered the corners of the quilt, and reached out to gently stroke the broken hair on her sideburns, feeling complicated and indescribable.
How could a little woman make him so uneasy, and almost really wronged her, the emperor felt guilty about a woman for the first time.
The scars on the face are finally healed, if there are two more ...... on the body
The woman is so interested in her appearance, he can not care, I don't know if she will complain about him when she wakes up.
The emperor strangely gave birth to a fear that Yu Qing would wake up soon.
The emperor personally went to the prison to pick up the Qing nobles, carried her all the way into the Qianqing Palace, and invited the imperial doctor to treat her.
Concubine Hua was so angry that she had already smashed a bunch of objects, "How can this slut be so fateful, and he can still hook up with the emperor when he enters the prison." ”
"Niangniang is not more angry, after this, there are more people who want to clean her up, why be angry for a little ant, it is not worth it to hurt her body."
Yuzhi looked at the fragments and felt distressed, just one piece was enough for their ordinary people to eat for a lifetime.
Concubine Hua also knew that what Yuzhi said was right, but she couldn't swallow this breath, "Why can she be so favored by the emperor, she has served in this palace for many years, and the emperor has not treated me like this." ”
As he spoke, he picked up another enamel dragon bottle and smashed it to the ground.
Coincidentally, there was also a sound of porcelain breaking from the Jiafei dormitory in Changchun Palace, and cursing was heard from time to time, and the maids and eunuchs in the courtyard were hiding far away, and no one dared to go in and touch the mold.
Diametrically opposed to these two is the Kunning Palace, where the empress is located.
When she received the news, the queen was enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden, and she didn't react too much after hearing it, and she was still calm.
Hold up a peony and sniff it lightly, "The peony is so delicate that people can't help but get closer, but if there are a few more scratches on the petals, after a long time, no one wants to look at it." ”
This harem warbler Yanyan, which is not a delicate flower, but where did the emperor stay for a long time.
What's more, she has two more scars on her body, even if the emperor is now guilty and loving, he will see it every time he shares a bed, and over time, how can he not be disgusted.
"What the queen said is, but a nobleman, even if he is injured and lives in the Qianqing Palace, is it unreasonable, and the mother will not persuade him." The queen's personal maid Tinglan said.
"What to persuade, once or twice, haven't you had enough lessons?" The queen put down the peony in her hand, took the handkerchief handed by Ting Lan and wiped it, "Go back to the palace." ”
"Niangniang doesn't look at it?" Tinglan hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the queen's arm and said.
"The noble man was wronged and sick, and this palace, as the lord of the first palace, must prepare some supplements to visit."
When the queen returned to Kunning Palace, she ordered Tinglan to go to the private treasury to take a thousand-year-old ginseng, and instructed the small kitchen to stew red dates and bird's nest soup, and then took the maid to the Qianqing Palace.
"Your Majesty, the queen mother heard that Qing Guiren was sick and came to visit." Xue Gui entered the house to report.
"Well, let her in." Although the emperor didn't want someone to disturb him at this time, he couldn't refute the queen's face.
When the queen was sleeping, she saw Yu Qing lying on the bed, and the emperor was sitting on the edge of the bed, his face was obviously tired, and it seemed that he had been guarding for a long time.
pinched the handkerchief, his face was silent, but he put on a dignified smile, and said with a caring face: "Your Majesty, it's okay for you to be a nobleman." ”
"I was tortured and burned all the time." Even when talking to the queen, the emperor's eyes did not leave Yu Qing.
"Your Majesty, the concubine brought a thousand-year-old ginseng to the Qing nobles, which can nourish vitality, and instructed the small kitchen to stew red dates and bird's nest soup, which is the most nourishing for blood and qi."
Even if the emperor ignores her, the queen can still smile dignified.
This old ginseng was rewarded by the emperor when the queen had a head attack a year ago, and the queen has been reluctant to use it, and now it is given to Yuqing, which can be regarded as a blood capital.
Hearing this, the emperor turned his head and glanced at it, and said with appreciation, "The queen has a heart." ”
