Chapter 237 Meritorious Service for Guilt
Jin Yan was stunned, and an almost impossible possibility flashed in her mind, and she subconsciously exclaimed, "Your Majesty, it turns out that you ......"
"Yes! If it weren't for the ministers urging too hard, why would I have to make such a decision? ”
Emperor Jing Yuan nodded, smiling extremely indifferently.
He drove the expedition in person and returned to the dynasty with a great victory, but because of the death of Concubine Hua, he was forced to clear the monarch's side and punish the demon concubine. In desperation, he compromised that she could no longer be on the cusp forever, he spoiled her, and he couldn't let her become the target of public criticism.
Therefore, he was promoted to the position of virtuous concubine and became the first imperial concubine in the calendar.
Naturally, the higher the position, the heavier the burden on this body.
Jin Yan understood, "The emperor wants to let the imperial concubine Niangniang share some undeserved attention for the concubines?" ”
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it, which is the unchanging truth through the ages.
She thought it was ......
"Yes! In order to make her feel more at ease with you, I let her get pregnant, otherwise, why do you think I will be good to her? ”
The emperor said angrily, pinched her little nose and said, "That is, you, who have no conscience, are unaware of it, and dare to come back and be angry with me." ”
As a result, he didn't sleep well for several nights, and even his temper was much more irritable.
"The emperor is good to his concubines, and the concubines know about it, but how dare the concubines speculate about this kind of thing? If the emperor doesn't say it today, the concubines will never know. ”
The emperor worked hard like this, but he just kept silent, and she was only the emperor's concubine, so it was natural to think that the emperor favored whom, that was the emperor's right, how could she dare to interfere?
"Okay. In the end, it's still me, isn't it? ”
Helplessly raised her hand to stroke her hairline, because of the pregnancy, her whole person was much more lazy, although her body was still thin, but it was slowly making up.
The emperor raised his hand and hugged his waist, and finally felt a little satisfied, "It's a little fatter than when I just returned to the palace." ”
Jin Yan was speechless, "Your Majesty, the concubine is wearing more clothes......
It's only been a few days, and you can find out how fat you are? It's too fast.
The next day, after learning that the imperial concubine was reconciled and intimate, the Jin Palace returned to its former laughter.
There was snow outside, and there was a stove in the inner hall of the Jin Palace, and Jin Yan commanded Xiu'er and Xiao Hezi to put the frozen and cut thin slices of mutton, as well as some various meat and vegetables, and said that they wanted a big pot to stew.
A few loyal slaves and maids looked at them blankly, and Xiu'er couldn't help but ask, "Niangniang, this is all raw, can this be eaten?" ”
"Of course you can eat it."
Jin Yan squinted and smiled, in front of a few of them, she didn't have half a concubine shelf, she just said, "By the way, there is also a dumb mother-in-law, and the dumb mother-in-law will also be invited over to eat together." ”
Xiao Hezi went with a head full of confusion, but after a while, the dumb mother-in-law came in, kind and kind, I liked it.
Entering the door, Jin Yan held his waist with one hand, greeted him affectionately and said, "Mother-in-law, we eat pot stew today, or mother-in-law likes it." Come, sit here. ”
Heren hurriedly pulled out the stool on the side of the table, and the dumb mother-in-law sat down with a happy face, looking at Jin Yan's gaze, just like his mother was looking at his daughter, Jin Yan's heart was sour, and he immediately looked away, and Heren was already asking, "Niangniang, how can this be used?" ”
It's all raw meat, raw vegetables, and some weird spice boxes, and sauces, which don't look like they can be eaten......
"There's no hurry. Start by putting some of the sauce into each of these small plates. And then...... When the water in the pot boils, the mother-in-law will adjust the taste. ”
Smiling, he sat down with his waist and waited for the water to boil.
There is a dragon burning in this inner hall, and now a small charcoal stove has been added to come in, and in a moment, a layer of fine sweat appeared on everyone's faces, Jin Yan raised his hand and wiped his forehead, wanting to take off his coat, but the dumb mother-in-law hurriedly pulled her, "babbling" gesture, the nugren and others couldn't understand the meaning of the mother-in-law, Jin Yan only smiled, "Okay, listen to the mother-in-law, if you don't take it off, you won't take it off." ”
Turning around, he explained to the nuren, "The dumb mother-in-law is very good, I am pregnant, and my health was not good before, and my mother-in-law was also scared ......"
When I saw the emperor that day, she was lying on the simple bed in the thatched house, with a pool of blood under her body, and she saw red.
However, after returning to the palace for a few days, especially the nutrients for eating and drinking, my body is really more comfortable than before.
After a while, waiting for the water to boil, the dumb mother-in-law put the seasoning in the pot, Jin Yan smiled and held the chopsticks, first picked up a piece of frozen mutton roll that was thinly cut and almost transparent, and poured it into the big pot, blinked and brought out the chopsticks, dipped the sauce in the dish and used it.
Nuren is in a hurry, "Niang Niang......"
He snatched the saucer from him, and Jin Yan was startled, "Heren, what are you doing?" ”
"Niangniang, this is just a shabu-shabu, can you eat it? What if you freeze your stomach with such a cold thing? ”
Niangniang is pregnant now, but she must not be sloppy!
A look passed, Xiao Hezi had already taken the silver needle, checked the meat dishes one by one, there was nothing abnormal, the kernel ate the mutton roll that had just been dipped in the sauce, Xiu'er scooped up the hot soup in the pot, took a small sip, a moment, and nodded at the same time, "Niangniang, it's okay." ”
This is...... Test for poison.
Is it necessary to be so serious?
At that time, in the imperial study, the emperor carefully flipped through the final case file sent by Marin little by little.
Pointing to one of them, he said, "What you found is that Nalan's death was not an accident?" ”
Ma Lin clenched his fists: "If you go back to the emperor, it is true." Although Lord Nalan was seriously injured, after seeing it, the imperial doctor was seventy percent sure that he could recover. But something happened that night, and Weichen intuitively felt that this matter was inappropriate. He secretly interrogated several people in the Guogong Mansion, and finally got it from a person, when Lord Nalan died, it seemed that he had spoken to someone in the house, and then, Lord Nalan suddenly disappeared. ”
He checked these things very clearly and did not let go of any of them.
"What about the man? Can you check the clues again? ”
Nalan was seriously injured, and it was not surprising that there were people keeping vigil around him at night, but Emperor Jingyuan still wanted to find out.
"The man has brought. It's just that he once mentioned that he seemed to smell a strange smell at that time, and then the whole person fell asleep. When I woke up again, Lord Nalan was gone. ”
Based on what this man said, and then in connection with the situation at the time, Marin concluded that Nalan City was harmed by people.
The Emperor nodded, and then asked the night watchman to be brought, and after asking in person, it was the same as what Marin said. Looking at this person, there was no suspicion, and the emperor asked Marin to continue to investigate the case.
The only pity is that Nalan City is glorious and beautiful, a peerless son, full of talent, and a good kung fu, and in the end he died so unclear, the emperor only felt embarrassed.
And the commander of the palace guards and the former deputy commander had accidents one after another, and the emperor only felt very troubled.
Hanqiu is still locked up in prison.
"Someone, go and bring Hanqiu here, I have something to ask him."
The case file on the table was put away, and the emperor stretched out his right hand and pressed the two fingers of his tired eyebrows. Soon, Hanqiu was brought in and came out of the prison of the Criminal Department, he simply freshened up and changed his clothes.
When they walked in front of the emperor, they were all handcuffed and handcuffed. Marin followed closely as if he were facing a great enemy, for fear that he would be unfavorable to the emperor.
Such a person who is full of kung fu, if he really has bad intentions towards the emperor, it is simply impossible to prevent it.
"Han Qiu, what do you think about half a year in prison?"
Emperor Jing Yuan looked at him and asked directly.
After half a year of prison life, the once high-spirited deputy commander of the guards has now been destroyed by the years of torture.
I introspect myself during the day, and I often dream of Sanqing at night.
I dreamed that she was covered in blood, and her eyes were full of blood and tears, and she said: Brother Qiu, Qing'er died so unjustly, so unjustly......
And every time he woke up, it was always in the middle of the night.
In this way, he could not sleep day and night, and his spirit became worse and worse day by day.
"Your Majesty, the guilty minister deserves to die, I just ask the emperor to give the guilty minister a quick death."
The chains on his body sounded, and he kowtowed to death, and Marin hurriedly stepped forward, thinking that he was going to do it.
A cold sweat was thrown out, the emperor flashed him, stepped off the back of the table, but personally helped him up, "I won't give you the death penalty, I have kept you for so long, I haven't given you death, and I want to give you another chance." ”
Seeing that his face was stunned and extremely puzzled, Emperor Jing Yuan said again, "I know that you saved the concubine once, so I am willing to believe that you have a good conscience." I now ask you, if I give you another chance, would you be willing to agree and serve me sincerely? ”
The so-called righteousness of the teacher, he has already returned it before, and now he is a person who has died once, so he naturally wants to start again.
"Does the emperor really not blame the ministers for the mistakes they committed before?"
Han Qiu was stunned, and said with a sad face, "The criminal knows that his crime is extremely evil, and he doesn't dare to live anymore, what face do he have to serve the emperor again?" ”
Speaking of which, he meant the same thing: to die.
The women he likes are all gone, what does it mean for him to live?
The emperor shook his head, with rare patience, "Don't you want to know, who killed Sanqing?" If you want to avenge her with your own hands, I will give you this opportunity, and you can also make meritorious contributions to your crimes, clear yourself, and be innocent again. ”
"Your Majesty, do you know about this?"
Han Qiu was stunned, "Did the mother tell the emperor?" ”
Only the concubine knows about this.
The emperor smiled and nodded, "The noble concubine never hides it. ”
His Jin'er is always sincere to him, and he doesn't have any desire to covet glory and wealth, and at the same time, this is what he admires most about her.
"But the sinners ......"
Han Qiu hesitated, and as soon as he spoke, a guard outside the door suddenly came in hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, there is news from the Minghua Palace, the imperial concubine is suddenly not very good, please ask the emperor to come over." ”
The Emperor stood up suddenly, "What's wrong?" ”
While asking, he flashed through the cold autumn and hurried to go outside.
He wasn't really worried about the imperial concubine, but in fact, the imperial concubine still had his prince in her belly.
