The meaning of Su Ru's words was already very clear, but Meng Rui'er's screaming at this moment really added a few layers of doubt to herself, Queen Zhou lowered her head and thought for a moment, and ordered An Qiu: "You go to Guihua Palace to check, who was there and who were not there when the decree was announced yesterday?" And what is the difference between the show girls who gave the banquet last night? ”

An Qiu nodded, quietly retreated, seeing this scene, the corners of Su Ruhui's mouth curled slightly, looked at Meng Rui'er and said, "Miss Meng still doesn't admit her guilt at this moment, isn't it because she has to wait for Aunt An Qiu to bring ironclad evidence before she dies?" ”

"The matter hasn't come to light yet, and Miss Su is too arbitrary to say this." Shen Zipei had calmed down and said calmly, "Queen Mother, after the imperial garden banquet last night, Miss Su Shi returned to Guihua Palace, and the courtiers heard the grievances between Miss Su Shi and Miss Tao before, so they went to ask Miss Su Shi to visit Miss Tao, but Miss Su Shi insisted on not allowing it, and later returned to Miss Tao's room, Miss Tao asked where the courtiers went, and the courtiers accidentally said that they had leaked, and Miss Tao was immediately emotional...... Calculate the time, now Miss Tao should almost wake up, and beg the queen to send someone to ask, what Miss Tao said is not inappropriate! ”

Su Ruhui said leisurely: "Miss Shen's words are not right, Miss Tao was originally deceived by others, I don't know how sad I am at this moment, you have lived in Guihua Palace together for so long, why don't you sympathize with her at all, and want to poke her sore spot in such a hurry?" Besides, Miss Shen has a life-saving grace for Miss Tao, and Miss Tao must be very grateful to Miss Shen for being so strong and filial, right? ”

"It's about Miss Tao's own life, does Miss Su still suspect that I colluded with Miss Tao to murder Miss Su Shi!" Shen Zipei glanced at her and said indifferently.

Su Ruhui smiled slightly: "As Miss Shen said before, Miss Tao Family has her own natural appearance......

"Oh? It turned out that Miss Su didn't know that although Miss Tao had no worries about her life, she also hurt her voice because of it, she originally spoke like a yellow warbler out of the valley, but now she was hoarse and unspeakable, Miss Su also said just now, Miss Tao is the daughter of a dignified prince, and she doesn't know Miss Su Shi, why would she pay such a price to frame her? Shen Zipei was not to be outdone, and replied in a deep voice!

"Then I also asked Miss Shen if she is well versed in medical science?" Su Ruhui said suddenly.

Shen Zipei said vigilantly: "I know a little bit about it! ”

"Really? It is no wonder that Miss Shen broke into the door after seeing that Miss Tao wanted to hang the beam from the candle projection, and after saving Miss Tao, she did not immediately go to the Imperial Garden to ask for the main seat of the queen and other presiding over the selection, but took care of it herself. Su Ruhua smiled and said, "It's just that Miss Shen also said, you only know a little bit about medical skills, not to mention that there is a way that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, Guihua Palace was originally for show girls to live, and it is not where the pharmacy is located, even if Miss Shen is good at the art of dividing yellow, what can be done without medicinal materials and needles is extremely limited, since you have already rescued Miss Tao, why don't you immediately inform the Zhonggong and send the imperial doctor to treat it?" ”

Su Ruhui's face sank suddenly, sneered a few times, and turned to the queen and said: "Niangniang, the courtiers originally thought that Miss Tao was fine, just lie down for a while, but listen to Miss Shen's meaning, Miss Tao is so throated!" The dignified daughter of Ningguo entered the palace to participate in the selection, which was a happy event, but now she went out with a dumb voice! Those who know that Niangniang is deceived by others, but those who don't know, don't they want to misunderstand that the palace deliberately neglected Miss Tao? ”

"You!" Shen Zipei didn't expect Su Ruhui to grab Tao Yue's throat, and in a few words, he passed the matter of the hanging beam, but he put all the responsibility for framing Tao Yue on himself!

"Does Miss Shen want me to ask Miss Tao about this?" Su Ruhui would not give her a chance to defend herself, and said with a sneer, "As Miss Shen said, everyone knows that the family style emperor of the Ningguo Mansion is also known, you saved Miss Tao, Miss Tao is naturally grateful, so even if you hurt her throat, with Miss Tao's person, I won't blame you!" Maybe I'll find another reason to explain it for you! But Miss Shen, how can you bear it? It's a good thing to save people, but I don't know why you hide it and don't report it, turning a good thing into a bad thing! ”

Shen Zipei took a deep breath, and saw that the gaze of the queen of Fengzuo last week looking at him was particularly meaningful, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said calmly: "Queen Mother Mingjian!" Huo Guifei was also at the banquet last night, and the courtiers knew that the concubine was pregnant and was about to give birth to an imperial heir in a few days, so she was worried that the news of the showgirl's hanging would shock the concubine at the banquet, so she would tell people after the banquet was over. ”

"If this is the case, Miss Shen can first ask others to take care of Miss Tao after saving Miss Tao, and go to the banquet calmly, which is the way to put an end to the worry of the lord in the palace." Su Ruhui sneered, "Doesn't Miss Shen know? Last night, because the young lady of the Shen family had not arrived for a long time, the concubine Niangniang even sent the grandmothers close to her to add palace lamps one by one along the palace road from Guihua Palace to the Imperial Garden, so as not to see the road in the dark, and the concubine Niangniang was also anxious! Miss Shen, if you arrive at the table early, it seems that the lords of the two palaces will not worry about you, right? ”

"As the painting said, Xiao Shen, why did you hide what happened last night until after the banquet was over?" Empress Zhou's face gradually sank and asked slowly!

The middle palace has been sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, and at this moment suddenly spoke, the attitude was obviously biased towards Su Ruhui, obviously because Su Ruhui reminded her that no matter who Tao Yue was victimized by, she was always injured in the palace, and Ning Guogong had to complain in private about the incompetence of the middle palace, and even a few show girls couldn't control it! This is for the queen who was deposed as a good king because of Ganlin, whether it is at this moment, her prestige is hit again, or she offends a prince again, she doesn't want to see it.

Shen Zipei's hand in her sleeve clenched and loosened, she was silent for two breaths, and finally said, "Back to the queen's mother, Miss Tao...... It is indeed a deception! ”

"Oh?"

"After the courtiers rescued her, because she had not been hanging herself for a long time, she woke up soon after, and the courtiers originally planned to let the palace maids who served her take care of her, and rushed to the imperial garden to attend the banquet herself." Shen Zipei sighed helplessly, "However, just as the courtiers left, Miss Tao asked where the courtiers went?" The courtiers didn't know the reason why she hanged herself at the time, so she told the truth, who knew that Miss Tao was crying bitterly when she heard it, and the courtiers had to stay to coax her...... Miss Tao was outside the Guihua Palace when Yi Zhi arrived, and after going back, several people congratulated her on being summoned to the banquet, Miss Tao was originally happy to prepare, but only to know that those people were just joking with her, and the courtiers inadvertently mentioned that they were going to the banquet and stimulated her, and in desperation, the courtiers had to stay in her room to accompany her, and did not mention the matter of going to the banquet...... Originally, the courtiers planned to wait for Miss Tao to fall asleep before leaving, but Miss Tao had just fallen asleep, and the show girl who went to the imperial garden also came back. ”

Queen Zhou's eyes were gloomy, and she looked at her for a long time before she said leisurely: "In this way, you are also a hard worker." ”

Shen Zipei said respectfully: "The courtiers didn't dare, the courtiers just couldn't bear it at that time!" ”

"What about An Qiu? After a long time, can you count it back? Queen Zhou said suddenly, and everyone turned their heads to look, but saw An Qiu walking in from outside the hall, followed by an aunt wearing a sapphire blue Suluo secretly embroidered plum blossom palace dress, with a solemn expression.

"How's it going?" Empress Zhou asked coldly.

An Qiu said respectfully: "The slave maid specially brought Mama Zhao of Guihua Palace to corroborate it, yesterday Yi Zhi went to Guihua Palace, because the weather was very good, there was indeed a little half of the show girl who went to Shanglin Yuan to pick flowers, and she was not in the palace, and afterwards, there were indeed rumors in Guihua Palace that Miss Tao was also in the list of last night's banquet, and many show girls even went to the banquet to see the vacancy of Miss Dushen's seat to know whether this matter was true or false. ”

Empress Zhou frowned, glanced at Meng Rui'er, who had been pale since An Qiu came back, and the red gold armor inlaid with rubies inlaid with peony flowers was slightly raised, and pointed: "When the decree arrives, can this show girl be in the palace?" ”

"Back to the queen mother, Meng Shirui'er, is the one who first told Miss Tao that the latter was on the banquet list!" Mama Zhao of Guihua Palace affirmed!

"......!" Meng Rui'er suddenly collapsed to the ground!

Empress Zhou's face sank like water, and she gave a brief order: "Bring it back to Guihua Palace!" Summoning the Duchess of Ningguo into the palace! ”

Su Ruhui sneered, and the show girls in the hall, including Shen Zipei, all showed surprise and disbelief!

But seeing Meng Rui'er struggling under the drag of the two powerful palace maids, she didn't know where the strength came from, so she rushed away from the two of them for a while, and suddenly pounced in front of Shen Zipei, grabbed her clothes, and shouted with tears: "Miss Shen!" You said that if I help you persuade your cousin to hang herself and frame the daughter of the Su family, you will help my brother get rid of the crime, and you also said that there is no danger, and now what are you doing and don't help me......"

There was an uproar in the temple!

Shen Zipei was surprised at first, but then layers of frost condensed under her eyes, and she said in a clear voice: "Meng Rui'er! I can't imagine that you not only hurt Miss Tao, but now you want to frame me! It's a pity that the queen is here, and your little tricks are better to put away! In vain, I thought you were innocent, and spoke for you in front of Miss Su, you ......"

Su Ruran sneered, turned her head and asked Su Ruhui: "Cousin, I don't understand what Meng Rui'er said, why is Miss Tao so stupid, a cousin can persuade her to hang herself?" ”

"With Miss Shen's 'life-saving benefactor' here, even I am not afraid of hanging myself!" Su Ruhui sighed, "It's a pity that I haven't seen that Miss Tao family, and I don't know if her voice is too tactful and pleasant, and she was ruined like this!" ”

Shen Zipei's face was pale!
