Chapter 268: The Death of the Old Palace Maid

There are all the people, so I'll ask carefully, Concubine An, tell me everything you know. Shangguan Yue said that after Zhao Jue's instructions, he knew that An Ran would expose what the prime minister had done before in the palace, so as soon as An Ran came in, he gave the conversation to An Ran.

An Ran was weighing what he said in order to help him get out of the current danger, and finally he decided, "The prime minister designed to kill the old emperor angrily, concealed the truth after the death of the old emperor, assassinated the four princes, and accused him of rebellion, so that the four princes could not return home, and after the death of the old emperor, he controlled the government with one hand, and wanted the four princes to die without a place to be buried." ”

Shangguan Yue was very happy when he heard this, now that he has a witness, no matter how smart the prime minister is, he can't argue.

"That's what you want to hear, but unfortunately these are not what I want to say, these are just Jiang Youxi taking the child in my belly to force me, I have to say so."

An Ran's second half of the sentence made the people present a little embarrassed, wasn't he commanded by Zhao Jue like this? He, an emperor of another country, did he want to mess up the government affairs of Southern Liang, and then he wanted to take the land of Southern Liang as his own and make his own land a part of Gaohua?

"Oh!" Shangguan Yue glanced at Zhao Jue, Zhao Jue has been planning for himself in the past few days, logically speaking, he is not the kind of person who violates his oath, let alone robs while the fire is burning.

"What evidence does it have that Jiang Youxi forced you, and what evidence do you have that the prime minister didn't do these things at all?" Shangguan Yue asked, An Ran is a very ghostly person, she must have regretted it when she arrived at the palace today, and she is still waiting for the prime minister to save her.

"Jiang Youxi once pretended to be a palace maid who delivered food and entered my dormitory, you can ask, if there is a day when the palace maid who delivers food is knocked unconscious in the imperial garden and robbed of the token." This matter is true, so even if you go to investigate, the results are true, but it was not because of this that day, but because I wanted to know what happened to Enron.

"This ......" Hearing this question, Zhao Jue didn't know how to reply for a while, Jiang Youxi didn't listen to his advice, and he did enter the palace, but for what, he was clear about several people.

"Since it's a confrontation in front of the palace, now that this matter has implicated me, I should also appear, since there are people to witness now, then I will also bring a witness to appear, don't be embarrassed."

Jiang Youxi has always felt that it is inappropriate since he saw An Ran yesterday, and he is afraid that An Ran changed his confession before everyone else, and when the time comes, he can only argue, so he followed Zhao Jue into the palace this morning and went to find the palace maid by himself.

Jiang Youxi led the palace maid in, and the palace maid asked for peace, "The old slave has seen King Yue every month. ”

Although the imperial uncle was assigned to the fief when he was young, he still remembers the old people in this palace, especially this old slave who was gifted by the queen mother when her brother was newly married.

"Excuse me, Aunt Yue has served the Queen Mother, Queen, I can't afford your gift." After speaking, Shangguan Yue personally helped the old man up.

The old palace maid stood up and said, "I heard today that the prince caught the confrontation in front of the prime minister's palace, I have something to say, and I hope the prince can allow it." "The old palace maid was taken all the way here by Jiang Youxi, and she was a little weak and unstable.

"You say, we're all listening."

After thinking about it for a while, he said, "That day, I was on an errand in Concubine An's palace, because it was afternoon, the old woman was sleepy, so I accidentally slept on the errand, and when I woke up, I found that there was no one in the entire palace of Concubine An. ”

Shangguan Yue hurriedly gave the tea he had just made to the old palace maid, and the old palace maid said, "Listening to that voice, it is the prime minister and the emperor, I have been in this harem for decades, I heard this voice well, and I heard the two people arguing there, because it was because of disagreement on government affairs, I didn't care." Later, I listened to a few more words, and it was indeed because of women. ”

"I took a few steps closer, and I heard the sound of men and women enjoying the water, and the prime minister also said that you wanted my woman back then, and today I will return it to you or something, and then said a few words, and the emperor's voice became quieter and quieter, and I was afraid and hid, for fear of getting into trouble."

After hearing this, most people understood that the emperor was caught on Concubine An's bed, and the two of them were really ...... The relationship is not simple.

"Soon after, the prime minister left, but the house was very quiet, the old slave could not rest assured that His Majesty, so he went in to take a look, the clothes were messy all over the ground, the concubine Niangniang was lying on the ground without clothes, and not far away, lying on the side of Your Majesty, I went up to touch it, Your Majesty's body was stiff, and he ran out of breath early."

In this story, it is not only the prime minister and An Guifei who are reluctant, but also the prime minister and An Guifei who are angry with the emperor together.

"The prime minister and Concubine An have heard this story, but they have something to say." Shangguan Yue asked.

Concubine An Guifei cleaned everyone up afterwards, except for these old mothers, she never thought that she was really bumped into, but even if she did, no one could prove that the emperor really died in his own palace.

"This is simply a deliberate murder, I am in love with the emperor, why should I kill him, what is the benefit of killing him, and this is just your side of the story, what can you prove that these things are really done by me." Concubine An replied.

I thought about it monthly, "I was very scared, I lived in the palace for a long time, and I understood a truth that only by pretending to be stupid can I live for a long time, but the slave felt sorry for the emperor, thinking that one day I would be able to seek justice for the emperor, that day, I deliberately dragged His Majesty's favorite pendant during his life and hid it in the palace of the concubine, if you don't believe it, you can go to find it, and you can also determine whether Your Majesty does not have the pendant." ”

An Ran heard this, a little panicked, indeed the old emperor had a pendant on his body, which was given by the first queen, and the emperor took it as a treasure and brought it on his body, although the emperor was abusive, but he really couldn't see the queen, that day, when he collected the body for the emperor, he felt that something had fallen.

"Go look for it in Concubine An's palace." Shangguan Yue commanded.

"Uncle Huang doesn't need to send someone, I've already brought it." Shangguan Chu walked in from the door, holding the pendant that the emperor loved most during his lifetime.

"The human and physical evidence are all there, what else do you have to say?" Shangguan looked at the prime minister and Concubine An Guifei, regardless of whether the two of them did anything else or not, it was this one thing, and it was a felony to kill the head if it was implemented.

The prime minister watched this farce, and even if this crazy woman had some conscience, she could remember that she was kind to him before, and she didn't expose him in front of everyone, but it was just a battle between trapped beasts.

"Forget it, it's all like this, I don't struggle, you can do whatever you want."

Nan Shenyue knew deeply that at this time, it was useless to say anything, it was better to go with them, at least some things were not poked out, and his sins could be cleared up.

"In that case, put Concubine An and the prime minister in the prison for me, waiting to be disposed of." After Shangguan Yue said this, someone went up and took the two of them down.

The ministers watched this farce, and the ministers who had swallowed their anger in order to stay in the court felt very happy today, as for the fall of the prime minister, it also made you feel happy, as long as the prime minister is gone, and now there is not a single moth in Nanliang, Shangguan Yue looked at today's farce, and really lost the royal face.

After dealing with some government affairs, he went down to the court.

Yu Yue's eyes didn't see Zhao Jue just now, but now she saw it, and suddenly felt that this man was very similar to the man in her memory, and hurriedly said goodbye.

Jiang Youxi and Zhao Jue also felt strange about his abnormality, but they didn't express it.

Day 2.

The fourth prince, as the only descendant of the Nanliang royal family, ascended the throne as the emperor, looking at the group of people kneeling below, Shangguan Chu only said, "If you want to live, don't think too much in your heart, too many of you have been the prime minister's disciples, if you still want to avenge the prime minister, don't care if I turn my face and don't recognize people." ”

Even if the court called back the people of the previous four princes, there are still some official positions that no one can hold, and they can only be held by the prime minister's disciples, but Shangguan Chu put his words here, if they dare to do anything excessive to themselves, don't blame themselves for being ruthless as an emperor.

"I ascended the throne with two purposes, first, Concubine An Guifei caused trouble in the harem, colluded with the prime minister, the two rebelled, gave poisoned wine to commit suicide, and the Nan family was exiled and could not return to Beijing for the rest of their lives. Second, when the King of Yue raised troops to protect Kyoto, the generals who died were all loyal and good, and they were posthumously sealed. ”

Two things, one is to clean the door, and the other is what the supermarket promised King Yue before. King Yue knew, his heart was very fluctuating, after so many years, he finally justified the names of these hard-working generals.

The matter is over, and Zhao Jue and Jiang Youxi have no reason to stay here, so they also plan to leave for home.

On the day of leaving, Shangguan Chu came to see him off, "I have news to tell the two of you, the old palace maid who testified for you is dead." ”

Hearing this, both of them were a little distressed, although the contact time was not much, but in such an environment at that time, it was not easy for them to help themselves testify. It's just a pity that he left this world like this.

"He's gone peacefully." Jiang Youxi asked.

"I heard that someone killed someone, and the room was turned over very messily." Shangguan Yue said.

Jiang Youxi and Zhao Jue were a little puzzled in their hearts, Yu Yue had lived in the palace all her life, and she had not offended anyone except for her own proof, even if this matter offended the prime minister, but the prime minister is now dead, and there must be no revenge, so what did he die for?
