Chapter 402
The grandmothers sent by the queen wanted to defend Mama Gong, but this was the case, they couldn't speak at all, so they could only respond resignedly, and none of them could tell the difference.
"Mama Gong, you are really bold!" The emperor interrogated clearly, and immediately pointed at Mama Gong and scolded: "What are you!" Mrs. Hou said that you should wait outside, but you didn't listen, and wanted to break in, is this strange Miss Gu? She suffered such a thing for no reason, and she was in a bad mood! You really deserve to be beaten! β
"The emperor atoned for his sins! Slave maid, slave maid didn't mean to...... "Mama Gong wanted to frame her, but she was scolded instead, and her ruined intestines were blue.
The queen sat upright, watching this scene with a faint gaze, and did not interject.
Fortunately, the emperor still knew who Mama Gong was after all, and after a few scoldings, he let Mama Gong wait on the side, and didn't do anything to her.
Mrs. Kazuba Hou saw the emperor's rare justice, and the expression on her face finally eased.
A quarter of an hour later, the brocade was there.
After inviting Ye for a while, the emperor said to Jinye Hou: "What is the matter of inviting you to come over today, I must already know it, I asked you to come over, just to see the result with my own eyes, if Tong'er is really innocent, I will definitely not spare Liang Jin easily!" β
"Wechen is terrified!" When Jin Yehou heard this, he immediately knelt down and asked Ye Dao: "Your Majesty, for the sake of Weichen's little daughter, you have been so tired, Weichen is very ashamed in his heart, but it's a pity that the little girl was calculated by the adulterer, and her innocence is almost guaranteed, please Emperor You must give her justice!" "Macro longitudinal technique.
"Whether it was the victim of the traitor, or Miss Gu's own misconduct, it is still unknown at this time, is it too early for Master Hou to speak? Are you so sure that your daughter must be icy and jade? At this moment, the queen suddenly said faintly.
Jinye Hou's face was aroused with great anger at once, she glanced at the queen, and replied lukewarmly: "Niangniang, Weichen just believes in his daughter's character very much, if I don't even believe in my own daughter, how can I stand here today?" β
"Alright, stop arguing." The emperor waved his hand impatiently and said, "What are you arguing about?" Haven't the two grandmothers already experienced it? Wouldn't it be enough to just let them announce the results? Won't it be clear who is wronged at that time? β
"What the emperor said is extremely true." When the queen heard this, she immediately smiled slightly, and said to the several grandmothers who had been kneeling on the ground and waiting for more than half an hour: "Okay, now that Your Majesty has spoken, you can tell the results found out in the Hou Mansion today!" β
"Yes! Empress! Hearing this, Mama Ji, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately said loudly: "The slaves and maids have all tested it, and Miss Gu is a perfect body!" β
These words are loud and very lethal.
The queen's face changed suddenly! I almost couldn't hold back my smile.
I only heard that the emperor heard this, and immediately smiled and said: "I have long expected this result!" As he spoke, he turned his words and looked at Mama Gong on the side: "You also went to the physical examination with Mama Ji, what is the result of your examination?" β
When the queen heard this, her sanity was immediately pulled back, and she stared at Mama Gong intently, even more urgent than the emperor.
The Jinye Hou couple and the crown prince were secretly relieved when they heard Mama Ji's words, but the emperor turned his head and asked Mama Gong, and the expressions on the faces of the three of them changed.
Under the urgent gaze of so many eyes, Mama Gong suddenly felt like a thorn in her back, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, she didn't dare to look at the very threatening gaze from the emperor's left, nor did she dare to look at others, so she gritted her teeth and said: "Your Majesty, the eldest lady of the Gu family is indeed a perfect body, and the slave maid has seen it herself, there will be no mistake." β
As soon as the words fell, a crisp sound of porcelain landing sounded in the hall, and everyone turned their heads, only to find that the queen had just broken a teacup, and the broken porcelain pieces and tea on the carpet carved with dragons and phoenixes were spilled on the ground, and the queen's right arm sleeve was still wet.
"Queen, what's wrong with you?" The Emperor asked with great concern.
The queen quickly put away the stunned expression on her face, and covered it with a smile: "Back to the emperor, the concubine is fine, she was just careless just now, you can continue to ask!" β
The emperor looked at her carefully and said with great concern: "Empress, if you are not feeling well, then go back and rest!" I'll just leave it to me. β
"Thank you for the emperor's compassion, but," the queen shook her head and said: "Since the concubine has promised to help Your Majesty interrogate this matter, you can't give up halfway, no matter how bad the concubine's health is, she will stick to the end!" β
When the emperor saw her stoic and virtuous appearance, he immediately nodded, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Okay, in that case, I can't make you lose your trust, just sit here!" β
"Your Majesty." The queen responded very gently.
The emperor glanced at her again, then turned his head and turned his gaze to Mama Gong on the side again, and said, "What you just said is the truth?" β
Mama Gong gritted her teeth, glanced at the queen quietly, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty!" Although the slave didn't want to believe this result, it was indeed true, Miss Gu, and she was indeed perfect. β
"Oh? You don't believe it? Why is that? When the emperor heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows.
Mrs. Jinye Hou's face changed, and she was about to step forward to stop her, but Mama Gong had already said quickly: "Miss Gu has always been demure and elegant, with an excellent temperament, it stands to reason that it is absolutely impossible for her to do such an immoral thing as fornicating with others, but there is no such thing as an empty wind in the world, and Liang Gongzi can say in public that he has a personal affair with Miss Gu, is it really no basis at all?" You know, flies don't bite seamless eggs! β
"Ridiculous! You are a slave, you dare to slander my family like this! : When Jinye Hou heard this, he almost died of anger, and scolded Mama Gong angrily on the spot: "I have been biting and saying that my family Tong'er is not a perfect body, and now it is found out that she is, but you have come up with such nonsense, chasing wind and shadows to humiliate me, what do you mean?" β
"Jinye Hou, the emperor is still sitting here! If Mama Gong wrongs you, she will be punished by the emperor, what are you anxious about? The queen said coolly.
When Jinye Hou heard this, he immediately turned his head and arched his hand at the imperial case: "Your Majesty! Please redeem the courtiers! It's just that what Mama Gong said was too ugly, and the minister couldn't help but ......"
"It's hard to hear it's true." The queen interrupted Jinye Hou's words, slowly stood up from the chair, looked at Jinye Hou with a smile, and suddenly said something that was unrelated: "Master Hou, I have always heard that there is a pair of twin sisters in the mansion, who are as beautiful as flowers and have the same appearance, even the descendants of your Hou Mansion often admit their mistakes, yes or no?" β
When Jin Yehou heard this, he was immediately stunned for a moment, but quickly replied: "Weichen has a pair of twin daughters, but they have never dressed differently on weekdays, but the people in the house have never been confused, what is this for?" β
"Since it's a twin daughter, it's much easier." When the queen heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "I just don't know, Mama Gong and Mama Ji went to the Hou Mansion for a physical examination, but what is Miss Gu?" Or Miss Gu Er? Do you know the difference? β
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the hall changed greatly!
Especially Mrs. Kazuba Hou, her face turned snow-white in an instant, and even her body trembled a little, but at this moment when everyone was surprised, no one could notice it at all.
The queen is still standing there lightly, but in the eyes of the ancient family, her appearance is really ruined!
Mama Gong was the most clever, she was the first to react, and immediately replied: "Back to Niangniang!" The slaves and maids entered the Hou Mansion, but they just listened to Mrs. Jinye Hou's Ye Pai and went to check on a girl she designated, as for whether the girl was Miss Gu or not. But the slaves and maidservants did not know. β
When the Jinye Hou couple heard this, their faces were ugly, and Xuanyuan Yan couldn't help but ask, "Queen Mother, what do you mean by this?" β
"What do you mean? Nature is a retest! The queen said slowly: "It's just that this time, it was the eldest lady and the second lady who tested it together." She said this meaningfully.
The queen is not a person who will admit defeat easily, and she never believes that she will lose, and what Mama Gong said in the hall today can never be a lie, she can't understand why things have turned out like this, obviously she has already calculated!
But it came to pass. But there was such a mistake, there was a hidden trace of murder in the queen's eyes, she was a quick person, and she quickly found the reason from this,
And the two sisters of the Gu family looked exactly the same, and it was the first thing that came to her mind.
Almost without thinking about it, the idea of dropping the bag came out, and the queen had lived in the palace for a long time, and she had an extraordinary sensitivity to all conspiracies, and she immediately brought it up in the court.
Everyone was shocked by her idea.
"Queen, what did you say?!" The emperor was very surprised and said, "Do you want to check all the two young ladies in the Jinhou Mansion?" It's ridiculous! He said, flicking his sleeve hard. Obviously, he would not agree with such a statement at all.
When Xuanyuan Yan heard that even Gu Ruoxi was not spared, and he had to have a physical examination, he was immediately furious. looked at the queen coldly and said, "Queen Mother, what you said is too outrageous, are Jinhou and Mrs. like that?" How can you slander the innocence of a courtier in front of you! β
"You are the crown prince. That's how you talk to your mother-in-law? When the queen heard this, she smiled instead of being angry: "When Miss Gu had a physical examination, you didn't have such a big reaction, she is your fiancΓ©e!" Now we're talking about Second Miss, Your Royal Highness the Prince, why are you so excited? Why does this palace think that you care more about Miss Gu Er? β
"The queen mother doesn't have to speculate! Xi'er is Tong'er's younger sister, so naturally she is also the sister of the palace. This palace will not let her suffer such humiliation! The prince sneered.
The queen still smiled lightly: "Sister? Oh? Half a month ago, who pleaded in front of the emperor to get the emperor to dissolve the marriage of Princess Min, the second miss of the ancient princess? β
Xuanyuan Yan's face flushed with anger when he heard this, he told the emperor alone about this matter, how could the queen know!
Seeing that he had nothing to say, the queen was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but at this moment, the emperor on the side coughed lightly and said, "Don't quarrel between you two!" It's a headache! That's it, I'd better ask Jin Hou what he thinks about this matter! As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Jinye Hou.
Jinye's face was pale, and his hands trembled. It took a lot of strength to calm down his heart that was at the peak of his anger, he turned his head, looked straight at the queen with his eyes, and said word by word: "The queen's mother is really sharp-tongued, once she heard that my family Tong'er is innocent, she immediately proposed to exchange her daughter for such a thing, you have really exhausted all means for a Liang Gongzi!" Not bad! Ben Hou has two daughters, and the eldest is difficult for outsiders to distinguish, but it is difficult for outsiders to distinguish, but not everyone can't tell the difference. Does the mother have to use such a means as a physical examination to prove her innocence? Do you really want to use such means to humiliate the Weichen family again and again? β
"Jinhou! Don't listen to this ignorant woman, she's nonsense, I won't believe it! Seeing that Jinye Hou was obviously extremely angry, the emperor immediately said Ye Wei.
"Jin Hou said this, is there a way to prove that Miss Gu is Miss Gu?" The queen listened to Jinye Hou's accusations, and then heard the emperor's heart-wrenching words, but she still didn't turn her face
, still smiling, but how eerie this smile is.
"That's right!" Jin Yehou said with a gloomy face: "As we all know, when my family Tong'er participated in the plum banquet, she died to prove her innocence because she was slandered, and the wound on her neck is not fake, right?" The other daughter of Weichen who enjoyed the Meiyan banquet that day was recuperating at home, and she was not injured on her neck, as long as it can be proved that Mama Gong, Mama Ji and others were examined during the physical examination, it must be Tong'er! Do you need to go to such lengths! β
When the queen heard this, she was stunned for a moment, but soon she recovered, and said with a smile on her face again: "What Master Hou said is that such a big difference has been forgotten by the palace, but," she turned her head, glanced at Mama Gong and Mama Ji, and said, "Two grandmothers, when you had a physical examination, did you notice the injury on Miss Gu's neck?" β
Mama Gong immediately replied: "Back to the mother's words, the slave maid didn't pay attention. β
However, Mama Ji said: "Back to Niangniang's words, at that time, Mama Gong was injured on the head by Miss Gu, and she had been resting outside, and then she only stayed for a moment when she went in for a physical examination, and she didn't notice that the injury on Miss Gu's neck was also there, but the slave maid and several other grandmothers saw Miss Gu from head to foot, and there was indeed a wound on her neck, and the slaves and maids could smell the strong smell of ointment. β
Her words can be regarded as completely proving that the person who was examined today is Gu Yuetong.
When the emperor heard this, he already understood what had happened, and when he heard this, he immediately said: "So that's the case! This is enough to prove that Liang Jin is a person who talks nonsense, and it is his improper mind to slander Miss Gu, which has caused immeasurable damage to her reputation. Escort Liang Jin down and kill him with a cane! β
As soon as the words fell, several guards walked in outside, and Liang Jin was dragged out of the hall like a dead dog, and he kept shouting hoarsely: "Your Majesty! I was wronged! I was wronged! β
The voice was very loud in the empty hall, and the emperor frowned and shouted: "Chaotic ministers and thieves, even at this moment, they don't give up!" Still climbing others! Come! Shut his mouth! Plug it! β
"Yes! Emperor! The guards outside the door responded, and someone quickly took out a ball of rags, blocked Liang Jin's mouth, and dragged him away.
But the emperor didn't seem to be angry, and he issued an order again: "Taiwei Liang Qingye, who has no way to teach his son, connived at his slander of others' innocence, and almost made a big mistake, and now he is demoted, and his whole family is imprisoned!" β
When this last order came out, not only the queen, but even the Kageha Hou couple and the crown prince grew their mouths in surprise.
The emperor's punishment seems to be too severe, right?
However, the emperor had no intention of changing his words, and it was not until the eunuch who passed the decree came out of the imperial study that he turned his head and put a smile on his face again
came and said: "Jinye Hou, today's incident can be regarded as making you suffer some grievances, are you still satisfied with such a punishment?" β
Satisfied? The emperor grabbed Liang Jin's family and went to the death, but he didn't even punish the queen who really pushed the Gu family to the bottom of the situation, the eccentricity was so obvious, when he couldn't see it? He was also asked if he was satisfied......
Kageba looked at the emperor, the emperor was also looking at him, the two middle-aged men confronted each other, obviously everyone had a smile on their faces, but the atmosphere above the hall suddenly became unprecedentedly tense.
Lady Kashiba's heart hung in the air, and she opened her mouth, wanting to break the peace, but she couldn't say a word.
And Xuanyuan Yan, he also sensed that something was wrong, so he was smart and didn't speak.
After a long time, Jinye Hou slowly retracted his gaze, lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, although the Weichen family was wronged today, but the matter was done by Liang Jin, but you punished the Liang Jin family, is it too much involved?" β
When the queen heard this, she hurriedly echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty! You see Jinhou said so......"
"Shut up! Do you feel that you are not responsible for today's events? I'll settle accounts with you later! It's okay that the queen didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, the emperor suddenly became angry and interrupted: "Reflect on it!" β
The queen's face was stunned for a moment, but the circles under her eyes turned red, as if she had been wronged, but the emperor ignored her, but turned his head to look at Jinye and waited.
