Chapter 31: Acknowledging Everything
Concubine Hua's heart became more and more flustered, although she didn't know what was going on, but she intuitively felt that everything was a game today, and she walked in so lightly, I am afraid it will be a little difficult to go out again, it turns out that she has always underestimated the queen.
"Queen Mother, the concubine suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to go back to rest earlier, so I can only come back to talk to you another day." Concubine Hua thought about it and felt that it was the best plan to go, so she pretended to be casual and said.
"Sister doesn't have to worry, it's not too late to leave after listening to the story told by the nurse." How could the queen let Concubine Hua leave so easily? Now that she is here today, she has to pay for what she has done.
"The concubine had no choice but to let Qinghe go back and get some medicine." Concubine Hua knew that the queen did it on purpose, and it seemed that it was impossible for her to leave, so she could only propose to let her personal maid go back, but in fact, her implication was not to let her go back to get the medicine at all, but to let her go back to move the rescuers.
"No need, what's wrong with my sister? There is all the medicine here in this palace, just give it to you. Just as Qinghe was about to leave, the queen said softly, but there was a momentum in her words that could not be ignored, so scared that Qinghe didn't dare to make any moves, so she could only look at Concubine Hua for help.
"Queen Lao is concerned, but the concubine suddenly feels better, so Queen Lao doesn't bother." After Concubine Hua's plan was discovered by the queen, she became even more nervous, and she was also quickly thinking of countermeasures.
"Then ask the nurse to tell us the story of sixteen years ago!" Thinking of those things sixteen years ago, the queen's heart couldn't help but ache, and all of this was caused by Concubine Hua, and today was the time for her to be punished.
"Let's say, the concubine wants to hear what the story is, and I hope that the nurse can think twice before she speaks, and don't say something that has lost her life." Concubine Hua couldn't think of a way to leave, so she could only say this to threaten the nurse, although she wasn't sure that what the nurse was going to say was the murder of the little princess back then, but she still felt that she should be careful.
It's just that Concubine Hua doesn't know if the nurse will listen to her again, because in the past, she could also threaten the lives of the nurse's relatives, but now there is only one nurse left, so Concubine Hua's heart is even more bottomless, and she is getting more and more panicked.
Could it be that the nurse returned to the palace this time to tell the queen about the killing of the little princess back then? What's going on here? Could it be that the nurse didn't die at all?
The more Concubine Hua thought about it, the more she didn't understand, the only explanation was that the person Yan Zi killed might not be the nurse, could it be that the queen had already known everything and sent someone to save the nurse?
"Queen Mother, the slave deserves death, sixteen years ago, she was instructed by Concubine Hua to kill the little princess." Just when Concubine Hua was full of doubts, the nurse suddenly knelt on her knees and said with great annoyance.
"Bold slave, dare to frame this palace, this palace doesn't know you at all, let alone the murder of the little princess." Concubine Hua's most fearful words were still said by the nurse, but she thought that sixteen years had passed since the incident, and the nurse had no evidence at all, so she was prepared not to admit it no matter what.
"Concubine Hua, since you dared to do it at the beginning, why don't you dare to admit it now? If you hadn't threatened the lives of the slave's relatives, how could the slave and maid do anything to hurt the little princess? "Moon Shadow doesn't let Concubine Hua go, she wants to expose what Concubine Hua has done in front of everyone little by little.
"Don't frame this palace again, you said that this palace threatened you and instructed you, but you came up with evidence!" Concubine Hua insisted that the nurse could not produce evidence, and if there was evidence, she should not wait until sixteen years later to expose herself.
"Concubine Hua wants evidence, doesn't she? Here's the proof. Moon Shadow took out a piece of paper from her bosom and shook it in front of Concubine Hua, only to quickly hand it to the queen.
"Bold Concubine Hua, I didn't expect that the daughter of this palace was killed by you, she is so young, but you are so ruthless, what else do you have to quibble?" The queen looked at the evidence handed to her by Moon Shadow, and looked at Concubine Hua angrily and coldly, she had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and now she could finally explode in the open.
"Queen Mother, don't believe the words of this, she must have deliberately framed Bengong, Bengong has never done anything." Until now, Concubine Hua still denied it, because she really couldn't remember what evidence she had in the hands of the nurse.
"Concubine Hua, this is a promise you wrote by yourself back then, and there is your seal on it!" Moon Shadow took the so-called evidence and shook it in front of Concubine Hua again, but she didn't let her see the contents clearly.
"You are talking nonsense, I didn't write any promise at all back then, everything was just verbally ordered to you......" Concubine Hua's heart was completely disturbed by Moon Shadow's words, so she was in a hurry and slipped out, but by the time she realized all this, it was too late.
"Concubine Hua, are you finally willing to admit that everything was done by you told the slave maid?" After listening to Concubine Hua's words, Moon Shadow finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"You, I didn't expect you to betray the palace in the end, I knew that I shouldn't have let you out of the palace back then, so I should have killed you with a knife and eliminated the future troubles forever." Concubine Hua couldn't keep her composure anymore, although she couldn't remember whether she had written a letter of commitment or not, but now everything was irreparable, because she had already leaked her mouth just now and indirectly admitted everything.
"Concubine Hua, you ruthless executioner, the daughter of this palace is so young, why do you want to hurt her ruthlessly?" Hearing that Concubine Hua finally admitted everything, the queen stood up suddenly, and slowly walked towards Concubine Hua with a sharp look that she had never seen before.
"Hmph, it wasn't me who killed your daughter, it was you, and you were the real murderer of her." Seeing that the general trend was gone, Concubine Hua no longer quibbled, but blamed the queen like crazy.
"Over the years, this palace has been treating you well, I didn't expect you to take revenge." The queen always knew that Concubine Hua was dissatisfied with her, but she never thought that she would hurt her daughter, so now, she will never show mercy to her subordinates.
"We are also the emperor's concubines, why can you get all the favor? I am unwilling, so I want your only daughter to leave you forever, and the emperor will definitely alienate you because of this, but I didn't expect that the emperor not only did not alienate you, but pampered you even more. Concubine Hua has completely lost her mind, and shouted out all the resentment in her heart over the years at the queen.
"I can't imagine that everything you did was because of jealousy, but fortunately, God has eyes and let the poor daughter of this palace still live." The queen really didn't think that everything Concubine Hua did was because of competing for favor, and it seems that love sometimes does make a person crazy.
The queen's words completely shocked Concubine Hua, she said that her daughter is still alive? Who was the man who died sixteen years ago? What's going on here?
