Chapter 202: Interrogation of the Prisoner
"Xiao Yanzi." Nalan Lan'er sat in the position, and several palace maids were cleaning up. Wan'er stood beside Nalan Lan'er, making tea for her and being silent.
Xiao Yanzi cautiously raised his head and looked at the still gentle Concubine Nalan, trembling with fear in his heart. "Slave...... The minions are in. ”
"This palace has never been harsh on you, and now you don't need to twist your tongue in circles, tell this palace who instructed you to go to the emperor to say this?"
Emperor. Giving her the right to handle the matter shows that the emperor began to believe it from the bottom of his heart. And if Xia He appeared to testify against her, then the emperor might be even more suspicious of her, but unfortunately, Xia He did not appear, and the manuscript she prepared was abolished with Xia He's non-appearance.
The little Yanzi in front of her is also the eyeliner of the queen mother, and she can't help but hate the queen mother when she mentions it. Looking coldly at the person kneeling at his feet, Nalan Lan'er didn't feel any change in herself.
Xiao Yanzi didn't dare to say who instructed him, even if Concubine Nalan tortured him, he still asked him.
Unable to get an answer, Nalan Lan'er frowned, and then remembered something and said: "You also heard the emperor just said that this matter will be handled by the palace, so before the results come out, if you commit suicide, then the whole family far away from the palace will be punished for your actions." ”
As soon as the family was mentioned, Xiao Yanzi, who had been silent from the beginning, seemed to be stimulated: "Niangniang! Niangniang, please let go of the slave's family, all of this is because of the slave, please Niangniang! ”
After Nalan Lan'er saw that it worked, she took a sip of tea: "Tell what you know, and this palace will naturally not harm the innocent." ”
He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to speak, but as if he had some concerns, he was stunned and didn't say it.
Nalan Lan'er waved her hand and motioned for the other palace maids to go down, and for a while, only Nalan Lan'er and Wan'er were left in this hall, and Xiao Yanzi in front of her didn't seem to want to say it yet, Nalan Lan'er continued: "Do you know that there is a criminal law recorded in the book? Calling people? This criminal law can turn a person into a pig. ”
Hearing this, Wan'er and Xiao Yanzi both raised their heads and looked sideways, with confusion and confusion in their eyes, and a little curiosity.
Nalan Lan'er frowned, as if she didn't want to think about it, but when she looked at Xiao Yanzi, she still chose to say.
"Cut off the limbs, chop them up, gouge out the eyes, put copper into the ears to make them deaf, pour medicine into the throat and cut off the tongue so that they cannot speak. Then they are thrown into the latrine, and some have to cut off their noses, shave their hair, shave their eyebrows, and then apply a medicine to destroy the hair. Sacs, hairs. After the sac falls off, it no longer grows, and it never grows hair again. ”
After finishing speaking, Xiao Yanzi sat on the ground in fright, scared without a trace of blood, not only him, but Wan'er also shook off the teapot in his hand, and a crisp cracking sound made Nalan Lan'er look sideways.
"Don't panic, let the palace maids outside come in and clean up."
Wan'er didn't dare to look at Nalan Lan'er, but she responded in a trembling voice and asked the palace maids outside to come in and clean up.
Nalan Lan'er herself was also disgusted, looked at Xiao Yanzi and said, "If you don't want to try, just tell what you know, otherwise it won't be good for you or the palace." ”
"I say, I say." Xiao Yanzi nodded hurriedly, for fear that Nalan Lan'er would not listen to him.
"It's Father-in-law An, Father-in-law An asked the little one to observe Niangniang's every move in the palace, and this matter was also Father-in-law An asked the little one to risk death to report to the emperor, and Niangniang spared his life~ Niangniang spared his life."
Nalan Lan'er seemed to be expected, and continued to smell the fragrance of tea and said, "The emperor was here just now, why didn't you say it?" ”
If he said it just now, maybe the Queen Mother's side would be implicated, maybe Gonggong An would not betray the Queen Mother, but it would not be bad to destroy one of the Queen Mother's right-hand men!
Now when the emperor comes to listen to this servant, the credibility is no longer high, and it is necessary to find Xia He and then find out the palace maids in the palace of the queen mother who have participated in the palace, the palace maid who was placed in the palace last time has almost reached the date of leaving the palace. There is no way to help her collect information in the palace of the Queen Mother, and it seems that she will have to find a few other palace maids.
While pondering, Xiao Yanzi was already crying: "This matter involves the Queen Mother, and the slaves don't dare to talk nonsense." ”
Nalan Lan'er let him get up, sighed and said: "This palace is going to go out to search for other evidence in the past few days, you are doing your previous position in this palace, don't seek death, your family's life is in your hands." Step aside. ”
"Huh." Xiao Yanzi silently retreated.
Wan'er stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, the punishment you just said is so scary, the slave and maid have never heard of it." ”
Nalan Lan'er frowned, didn't even finish the tea, and said, "It's just that I saw it in the book, and I don't want to remember it." ”
Wan'er felt relieved: "Niangniang looks bad, don't read these books in the future." ”
Nalan Lan'er didn't say no, and let Wan'er accompany her out to bask in the sun, the sunset was slanting westward, the sun was heavy but not hot, and the last afterglow always had a feeling of doing her best.
After hearing that it was Gonggong An's instructions, it could be confirmed that the Queen Mother had begun to deal with her. In this case, if you don't take every step of the way, you will really die here.
I hope that my brother can find the key person of the year outside, and he can also rush back before she can't hold on, she must let the grievances of the Nalan family be revealed!
Wan'er watched Nalan Lan'er walk distractedly, thinking that she was worried about the affairs of the former emperor and concubine, and whispered with relief: "Niangniang, now that Xiao Yanzi has confessed, then find a few more witnesses to let Gonggong An subdue the law." ”
Nalan Lan'er shook her head: "Silly Wan'er, do you think the Queen Mother is an ordinary concubine or queen?" That's the emperor's mother, no matter what is wrong, someone will help hide it, that is, there are countless substitute deaths, this game of chess The queen mother did not win, and I did not win. ”
Wan'er only put it in her stomach when she heard it, thought for a while and said: "At least the emperor is still towards Niangniang, the more the Queen Mother targets you, the more obvious it is, and the more the emperor will defend Niangniang." ”
Nalan Lan'er can only rely on the emperor's favor for the time being to declare war on the queen mother. But how does she feel like a mother-in-law war?
Shook his head: "There is still a long way to go in the future, this is just the beginning, I hope that the palace will be more angry, maybe the queen mother will send a palace maid to come over and give medicine, and the palace will leave." ”
Wan'er immediately said seriously: "Don't talk nonsense!" It's not so easy to get under the drug! Although it is said that the Queen Mother has privileges, don't forget that some of us have tried to eat. It's okay. ”
Nalan Lan'er nodded, and then remembered and asked, "Didn't Xia He still return to the palace?" ”
"Back to Niangniang, Xia He still hasn't returned to the palace, and it is estimated that he doesn't dare to go back. The slave didn't see that she was actually the queen mother's person! Wan'er said with hatred.
Nalan Lan'er shook her head: "It's impossible not to go back, she hangs under the gate of Huayan Palace, and no other palace will accept her." You find a time to inquire with Xiao Yanzi and see if there are any more clues coming out. ”
Wan'er received the order and stood for a while, Nalan Lan'er's stomach screamed, only to realize that she had left without eating at noon today.
"Niangniang is hungry, Wan'er will go to the kitchen and let the chef cook a few dishes?" Wan'er heard her mother's belly and asked, and there was no so-called smile on her face at all.
Nalan Lan'er nodded and remembered Yun Ziqing, so she said, "Ziqing, can you finish the meal after I leave?" ”
"I ate seven, seven, eight, eight, and then, I left with the palace maid."
Nalan Lan'er understood, and went into the back room to sit.
Only Yun Ziqing ran back to the palace alone, and when the palace maids saw the dirty master, they hated it but didn't dare to be disrespectful, and anyone could see that the concubine was not thin on her master.
Yun Ziqing also ignored the anxious looks of the two palace maids, because her expression was more anxious than the two palace maids who couldn't find their masters.
The palace maid seemed to see that the master's face was not good, and she stepped forward and wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Yun Ziqing: "Don't ask so much, I want to take a bath." Go and see if there is anything to eat in the kitchen, I'm hungry. ”
After speaking, he rushed straight into the dormitory, and then summoned the little palace maid and said, "You go and find out if Concubine Nalan is still in the palace and if there is anything wrong." ”
Although the little palace maid didn't know what was going on, she still obediently accepted the order. There were only two palace maids who promised the grade, and after the palace maids and the big and small palace maids walked away, Yunzi asked herself to pour a cup of cold water into her stomach, originally she was just curious, so on the way back, she got rid of the big and small palace maids, and secretly ran to the cold palace to wait, but she didn't expect to see Nalan Lan'er appear, but saw a person's back. Jing left and fell to the ground of the former imperial concubine?
"If I hadn't been calm and silent, I'm afraid it would have been yin and yang!" Yun Ziqing muttered.
There are eight palace maids waiting in the palace of Nalan Guifei, and it seems that except for that Wan'er, the other palace maids are also half-hearted, and they see what they shouldn't see, hoping that they will not be discovered.
Waiting for the palace maid to bring hot water, Yun Ziqing went inside to bathe and soothe her emotions, now she met with Concubine Nalan, the attitude of the two palace maids around her is completely different, such a hierarchical force looks really good, although she is only thirteen years old, she has seen a lot in the past few months, she has also seen the emperor, but she prefers life outside the palace, and she also has someone she likes. But how do you get out of the palace?
Concubine Nalan can help herself, right? But what reason did she have to help her? It's a headache, this inner courtyard of the palace is really complicated.
Just thinking about falling asleep in the bath in a dizzy state, or the palace maid woke up carefully, Yun Ziqing woke up to dress and eat, she decided to stand on the side of Nalan Guifei in the future and tell her all the news that is good for Nalan Guifei! Anyway, if you can't go out in this palace, it's better to fight to the death, maybe you can still get out of the palace, with such an idea, Yun Ziqing waited for the little palace maid to come back while eating, she hoped that Lan Guifei was not framed and succeeded, and seeing that she left without being driven away, it shows that there is still room for relaxation.
