Chapter 126: Restoring the Truth (1)
It was late at night, and the bluestone slabs in the courtyard of the palace were soaked with dew, like mercury paved under the moonlight. Shen Wan stood in the courtyard, the night wind swept the birds sleeping on the branches, flapped their wings and flew to the depths of the moon shadow. Looking up, the palace walls are towering. A few plane trees stood tall, the leaves were not luxuriant, and they could not hide the moonlight, although it was a waning moon, as if hanging among the shadows of the trees.
Under the moonlight, the golden dog kiss of the palace was coldly reflected, cold and lonely.
Cui Shanggong stepped forward slowly and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Niangniang, Weichen went to the palace to pass on Niangniang's words, and the palace is full of clever people, and they will not torture Pang Xiaoyi." ”
"What does the teacher think about this?" Shen Wan hadn't called her a teacher for a long time, and today she asked with some expectation, and she added her own opinion, "I always feel that painting is wronged." ”
Cui Shanggong lowered his head and said solemnly: "Does Niangniang trust her intuition more than evidence?" ”
Shen Wan smiled coldly and said, "Evidence can be faked, and my intuition never deceives me. ”
Cui Shanggong was stunned, and then said: "If Pang Xiaoyi is really the murderer of the emperor's heir, everything will be true!" But if she's not, everything ...... It's incredible. ”
The light in Shen Wan's eyes lit up: "Did the teacher remember something?" ”
Cui Shanggong shook his head slowly and said, "Weichen can't say anything, it's just a guess." ”
Shen Wan frowned and said coldly: "Concubine Qing is forcing each other step by step, and if she has to put the painting to death, no matter how much speculation she makes, it is just in vain." She lowered her voice and added, "She doesn't want to let go of the painting, and I'm ...... Don't want to let her go! ”
Cui Shanggong looked at her with disbelief in his eyes.
Shen Wan's side was reflected by the waning moon, with a bit of ruthlessness: "The palace has already told her, Pang Xiaoyi's position is low, and it is not beneficial for her to murder the imperial heir, there must be someone behind the scenes!" Concubine Pei is already a lost dog, and now she is left with Concubine Qing still surviving! If this palace is ruthless and uses the painting to get rid of Concubine Qing, what does the teacher think? ”
Cui Shanggong's heart was faintly cold, and even the back of his spine was cold, and he asked speculatively: "Niangniang really wants Pang Xiaoyi to admit that it was her hands and feet, but she was instructed by others?" In this way, Pang Xiaoyi will have to be sacrificed, and Concubine Qing may not be able to be defeated! ”
Shen Wan smiled cruelly: "As long as the painting is willing to sacrifice, the rest, this palace will take care of it!" She looked sideways at Cui Chengqin and said, "Teacher, you might as well go to Gong Zhengji again to see what Pang Xiaoyi thinks." ”
Cui Shanggong sighed slightly in his heart, and had to say, "Yes." ”
As soon as she left, Xiangming walked to Shen Wan's side and asked hesitantly: "Niangniang, always let Shang Gong move around, if you let people with ulterior motives see it, will it be ......?"
Shen Wan smiled at her secretly and said, "I just want those people to see it!" ”
Xiangming was stunned, and the emperor came to sing in front of her, and Shen Wan hurriedly sorted out her clothes and went out to greet her.
Xichen entered the inner room with her, as if he was very tired, and when he talked about the pregnancy of the noble Xia, he frowned and said: "I really didn't expect Pang Xiaoyi to look good, but she would do such a thing." ”
Shen Wan tugged at the corners of her lips and asked, "Does the emperor also think that Pang Xiaoyi did this?" ”
Xichen looked at her in surprise and said, "Is there another hidden meaning in this matter?" ”
Shen Wan shook her head helplessly and said, "The concubine doesn't know. ”
Xichen pondered for a moment and said, "I know that you and her are old acquaintances, but if the matter of the imperial heir is implicated, it will cause unnecessary trouble. Now that the evidence is conclusive, let's settle it! I don't want people to gossip about the Queen. ”
Shen Wan was annoyed in her heart, and sneered on her face: "So it seems that there are already people gossiping about concubines?" Let the concubine guess, what are you talking about? Will it be said that the concubines are pretending to be public and private, or are they shielding their friends? ”
Xichen frowned and said, "Wanwan, you are too careful, I just want to remind you." ”
Shen Wan got up abruptly and said, "The concubine thanks the emperor for the reminder, but the affairs of the harem are still decided by the concubine!" Whether Pang Xiaoyi is wronged or not, whether he needs to be convicted or not, and the concubines are in charge, and the emperor doesn't need to bother with it! ”
Xichen said unhappily: "Wanwan, what kind of attitude do you have?" I hope you don't break the rules of the harem because of your feelings! ”
"Rules?" Shen Wan sneered, "Does the emperor want to use rules to suppress his concubines?" ”
"Even if you and I are the supreme in the world, the rules are indestructible! So, Wanwan, don't always let Cui Shanggong go to Gong Zhengji! He looked at Shen Wan with blazing eyes, and said slowly, "I know what you're thinking!" ”
Shen Wan's heart suddenly burst, and she suddenly pushed him, and said loudly: "I don't want to see you, you let me out!" ”
Sorry for the dust, Shen Wan still didn't give up, and said while pushing: "The concubine occasionally feels cold tonight and can't serve the king, so please ask the emperor to move elsewhere!" By the way, Xia Guiren has just lost his child and is feeling uncomfortable! The emperor should go and see her! ”
Exiting the door, Shen Wan closed the door with a "bang", and sat at the table angrily, her chest heaving and heaving, very annoyed.
Xichen stood at the door for a while, flicked his sleeves and left.
After a while, Chun'er persuaded Shen Wan with a bitter face: "Niangniang, you are angry in your heart, and you shouldn't drive the emperor out!" It's good now, the emperor really went to the noble Xia! Why don't you let the slave and maid invite it? ”
Shen Wan said coldly: "He can go wherever he likes, and this palace can't care about it!" You don't have to please, go make the bed, this palace is tired. ”
Chun'er wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xiangming's look, so she had to go to make the bed.
After a while, someone came to report the tea, and the emperor only sat at the Xia nobleman for a while, and still went back to the Qiangong.
Xiangming told Shen Wan the news, and Shen Wan fell asleep on her side, pretending not to hear it.
After the morning of the second day, Xichen still did not come to the Chen Palace, and Shen Wan was asking Imperial Doctor Sun to ask for peace and security.
Cui Shanggong stood aside, looking at Imperial Doctor Sun from time to time, as if he wanted to stop talking.
Shen Wan said lightly: "If the teacher has something to say, you might as well say it directly, it's all your own people here." ”
Cui Shanggong had no choice but to say: "When I passed through Yongding Gate, I heard several adults discussing, it seemed that it was an accident in Tai Hospital. ”
"Oh?" Shen Wan looked at Imperial Physician Sun and asked with a smile, "Imperial Physician Sun is not a person who doesn't like to tell right and wrong, so even if there is news, he won't say it, right?" ”
Imperial Doctor Sun shrank his hand and said indifferently: "Weichen is indeed not nosy, but what this Shang Gong said is probably that he was kidnapped by a strong man on the way home from the royal hospital of Tai Hospital last night, and he has not been seen so far, right?" ”
Shen Wan was stunned for a moment and looked at Cui Chengqin, who nodded silently.
Shen Wan looked at Imperial Physician Sun again and said, "Such a big event, Imperial Physician Sun actually kept his mouth shut, it's really not shocking!" ”
Imperial Doctor Sun put away the medicine pillow and said, "Wechen has seen a lot of big things, and this kind of thing is really not a big deal. ”
Shen Wan said with a smile: "It's about the Tai Hospital, isn't the Tai Doctor afraid that he will be kidnapped by the strongman one night?" ”
Imperial Physician Sun's face changed, and then he returned to his normal color, and said, "That's also something that can't be avoided." ”
Cui Shanggong said on the side: "However, the emperor has ordered Jing Zhaoyin to strengthen the security of the capital, presumably Imperial Doctor Sun will not encounter such a thing." ”
Shen Wan also smiled: "Imperial Doctor Sun is not nosy, and he doesn't like to gossip, so he will definitely not meet it." ”
Imperial Physician Sun stepped back, Shen Wan put away her smiling face, and said to Cui Shanggong: "It seems that the teacher's guess is somewhat interesting. ”
