About a month ago, when the King of Qin entered the Yongning Palace to worship on the tenth day, when the day of the day Kui Chuan happened to replace Mei Tian on duty and was excluded from the side hall, she then looked for Gui Pei to try: "Although His Royal Highness is the adopted son of the mother, after all, he has been married and crowned, and this time he went back to the palace to worship and ...... with the mother's private / place."
"Bold, where is the private/place, I didn't see Wu Gongling and other female envoys in the palace!"
"Sister Gui reminded me that it was my wording that was inappropriate, and what I wondered was that it was just a punishment for kneeling, and we saw that it would hurt the face of His Royal Highness King Qin, so it didn't matter if Wu Palace ordered them to see it? I'm afraid that nine out of ten people will not believe this. ”
"And what do you think is the truth?" Gui Pei, who was the ear, was moved in his heart at that time.
"How can I be so clever, besides, compared to Sister Gui, I am a newcomer, how can I understand Niangniang's mind? I just heard that Wei Guogong supports His Royal Highness to be the prince, and Niangniang is close to his brother and sister-in-law, so how can he really dislike His Highness? Maybe, Niangniang wants to let Wu Gongling or another confidant envoy to appease His Royal Highness King Qin, if this is the case, you must not create an opportunity for His Highness to get close to them first, I don't know what Sister Gui thinks, I am very envious, even if our son can't compete with Wu Gongling, if they win Niangniang's favor in the future, they will have hope, so that they will not become a white-headed lamp in this deep palace. ”
Kwai Chuan's idea should be to instigate Gui Pei to be the secret agent, but where was Gui Pei easily instigated by her? So Kwai Chuan had no choice but to do the snooping thing herself.
"In the past few days, Kwai Chuan has replaced Mei Tian on duty, and the slave maid has been keeping an eye on her for peeping, but Kwai Chuan has not acted until yesterday...... The slave maid actually didn't plan to pay attention to Kwai Chuan anymore, it was to listen to Wang Neiguan's chanting of "King Qin is out of the palace today", the slave and maid paid attention again, and last night also found an excuse to enter the concubine Niangniang's bedroom to find Wu Gongling to speak, but was stopped at the door, Wu Gongling came out to meet the slave and maid, although the slave and maid were not trusted by the concubine, but this is also an unprecedented thing, after all, Niangniang's dormitory has never forbidden the palace people of Yongning Palace to enter, so the slave and maid doubted that Kwai Chuan would ...... at that time has died, in order to cause Kwai Chuan to throw himself into the well today, Wu Gong ordered that the slave maid could not let the slave and maid witness that Kwai Chuan was not in the concubine's bed last night. ”
In order to make his judgment more convincing, Gui Pei added: "Of the three witnesses today, one of them was not on duty last night, and it should be that the concubine deliberately let her henchmen replace the palace people who should have been on duty in order to cover up the crime. ”
According to Gui Pei's latest confession, Kwai Chuan has the idea of listening to the secrets of the concubine, and intends to use this as a shortcut to "promotion", which may be the real cause of her death.
At the suggestion of Chungui, the crown princess asked the other three witnesses of the concubine respectively, and the first one was the person who "replaced".
She really didn't say that she shouldn't have been on duty last night, and only after being questioned did she explain: "The slave maid has no other strengths, only one hand massage massage is good at it, and the mother often feels that her waist hurts and she will call the slave maid to serve, and the same was true last night." ”
Chungui saw that the palace people were also clever, because he felt that no matter how much the crown princess could not interrogate Concubine Zheng, her lies would not be exposed, but ...... Zheng Guifei's waist and bones are sore, and it is said that one more palace person will be massaged in the dormitory, how can she be so meticulous and have to let her replace another palace person on duty? There is no restriction in the palace that there are no more than four maidservants on duty.
So Chun Gui asked one of the palace people: "Can you be present when Kwai Chuan knocks over the incense powder?" ”
"Slaves and maids present?"
"How precious that incense powder is
Causing the concubine to be furious? ”
"It doesn't matter if the incense powder is there, it's just that the turquoise green powder box containing the incense powder is an object that Niangniang has always cherished."
"This turquoise green box is the official system of the Silver Bureau?"
"Yes."
"So what year was it made, and by which master craftsman?"
One of the palace people was dumb.
None of the second and third members of the palace could answer these details.
Chun Hui said his judgment to the crown princess: "If the powder box is really the precious thing of the concubine, how can these cronies of the concubine in Yongning Palace not tell what year it was made and who carvered it?" They must understand why the concubine cherishes it, and will warn the rest of the palace people not to damage it, they can't say the truth, it's just because there is no powder box smashed at all, and they think that this matter will easily cover up the past, so there is no need to collude confessions, and they make up nonsense, for fear that they will not correspond to the confessions of the rest of the witnesses. ”
"In other words, the concubine never reprimanded Kwai Chuan at all, and Kwai Chuan did not commit suicide by throwing himself into a well."
The crown princess looked solemn: "Although I don't approve of extorting confessions by torture, in order to thoroughly investigate this case, I have to use extraordinary means." ”
"Sister Ming, let's discuss with the Queen Mother before making a decision." Chungui sighed secretly: "I still have to wait for the results of the autopsy, don't be in a hurry." ”
From the point of view of Chungui, Mingzhu is honest and fair, and there is nothing wrong with judging the case according to law, but the matter on the field cannot be so simple to judge the case according to law, there are too many interests and shadows behind it, and the most important thing is that it is very likely to touch the reverse scale of Emperor Hongfu's fear of the rebellion of the wall.
But in front of so many people in Gong Zhengji, it is inconvenient for Spring to remind Mingzhu of these hidden dangers.
Almost as soon as Mingzhu and Chungui returned to Cining Palace, the autopsy results had already arrived - although Kwai Chuan was indeed drowned in the well, but there was a wound on the temple, and he thought that even if the deceased had the determination to die, it was unlikely that he would be planted into the well when he threw himself into the well, and there was water in the well, which could cause the deceased's skull to be traumatized by touching the wall, not to mention that the wound on Kwai Chuan's temple could only be formed by hitting with a heavy fist.
Judging that Kwai Chuan was hit by a heavy punch, causing fainting and losing consciousness, and then was thrown into a well, the deceased was temporarily awake due to choking on water, but he was not rescued in time, and eventually drowned.
Mingzhu also tasted something wrong at this time: "Whether it is the noble concubine or the cronies of many noble concubines of Wu Gongling, they are all women, I'm afraid they can't stun Kwai Chuan with one punch so that she can't struggle or even call for help at all, right?" Do you say ......"
"If it's hard to verify, don't export it lightly." The queen mother's eyes are like cold electricity, but this cold electricity is naturally aimed at the pearl.
"Take this autopsy result yourself and show it to Concubine Zheng Guifei to see how she explains."
Before Concubine Zheng could explain, the Queen Mother asked Mingzhu again: "From Ming'er's point of view, how will Concubine Zheng explain?" ”
"The evidence is overwhelming...... However, the concubine will still quibble, insisting that she was bought by us, with the intention of slandering and framing. ”
The Queen Mother asked Chun Gui again: "What does Xiao Gu think?" ”
"Lose the car and protect the handsome."
The Queen Mother smiled but said nothing.
The results soon confirmed the unpredictable prophet of the return of spring.
Zheng Guifei didn't even bother to come to Cining Palace to beg for mercy, and sent Wu Gong Linglai, saying that Kwai Chuan and one of the palace people had a dispute, and one of the palace people was angry and killed Kwai Chuan by mistake, and pushed Kwai Chuan to the well in a panic
When the concubine's grounding was lifted, the concubine dared to step into Yongning Palace.
Mingzhu was furious: "Kwai Chuan has already died innocently, and as a result, the concubine is going to launch an innocent person to bury Kwai Chuan again!" ”
"Ming'er, these three palaces and six courtyards were originally the most ruthless and unfair places in the world, I know that you have an upright heart and don't want to hurt the innocent, but you are willing to take the blame for the concubine, she is afraid that she is not innocent, but this matter, although we can only detect this point, it is not necessarily true that the dust can be settled, but whether you observe it or not, punish it or not, we can't do it."
The decision of the Queen Mother is undoubtedly to hand over this stall to Emperor Hongfu.
In private, she asked Chun Gui alone: "Xiao Gu doesn't have to scruples, tell me who the murderer is in your opinion." ”
"I'm afraid it's King Qin."
"Why did King Qin kill people?"
"Silence."
"Why did you kill your mouth?"
"There are two possibilities, either Kwai Chuan spied through King Qin's secrets, or King Qin thought that Kwai Chuan had spied on his secrets."
I didn't say anything, but there are a lot of things that I don't need to say here in the Queen Mother.
She just sighed more and more, but this emotion could only be sent to Xiao Gongling.
"Ming'er's side, there is indeed a lack of an arm like Xiao Gu, even I think Tao is hateful, you said that she didn't have the ability of Mengbu, obeyed the orders of her parents and married into the Taishi Mansion, Xiao Gu is now a big arm of Liulang and Ming'er, in the future, Ming'er will preside over the Sixth Palace, with Xiao Gu by the side, how can I worry about those who are flattering and messing up? If the harem wants to be stable, you have to rely on the principal to have both talent and morality, which means that you are witty and alert, and it can be said that you are still in front of virtue. Ming'er is virtuous, but he does lack some talent, and he is not afraid to let ordinary people slowly experience it, but in the deep palace, blood may be seen every step of the way! ”
Xiao Gongling quipped: "Niangniang only thinks about her grandchildren and daughters-in-law at this time, so she doesn't think about Zhao Duyu and Gu Yiren?" How can Zhao Duyu and Tao Cairen be a good match? For Gu Yiren, after all, it is better to be subservient to others than to be fortunate to meet a husband who is willing to be with her for the rest of her life. ”
"Aren't people's hearts all on the long side? I'm no exception. The Queen Mother sighed: "Now ah, don't look at Liulang is storage position, it's hard to say if you can laugh to the end, just like this incident in Yongning Palace, I can't even tell whether it was really accidental, or someone conspired in the back, and laid a trap to lead Liulang to step on it, the latter is just that, if the former is ......"
The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "I'm afraid that within the walls of this palace, there will be a big scandal!" ”
Xiao Gongling suddenly felt that the surroundings seemed to be suddenly slaughtered.
But there is one thing, and I still dare not hide it from the Queen Mother: "Adan said, I'm afraid the prince will not spare Tao Cairen." ”
"It's up to him for this, if he can't even treat a single Tao family, I don't think he should sit on this chair, no matter what it is, he always has to give Lan Ting and Xiao Gu an explanation, in the eyes of the emperor, whether the Tao family is dead or alive can not hinder the overall situation at all, and what needs to be appeased, isn't it our Empress Dowager Zhang? If Empress Dowager Zhang is not easy to appease, there will be no one to appease in this world. In other words, Tao is really stupid, why does she think that Empress Dowager Zhang is her solid backer? Wouldn't anyone with a better brain rely on me? ”
Xiao Gong Ling: ......
"Niangniang, whoever wants to rely on it can be relied on, if Tao Cairen really dares to come to Niangniang, Niangniang will not have uncovered her fake sheepskin long ago."
The Queen Mother was very suspicious: "Am I so cruel?" ”
Xiao Gong Lingwei only smiled "hehe", too lazy to speak.
