Chapter Eighty-Four: Lifting the Matter
Early the next morning, it was rumored in the palace that Su Youyi had gone to Yonghe Palace.
Everyone was in high spirits, thinking that she had suspected Concubine Hui last night, and went to Yonghe Palace early this morning, isn't this a face-to-face confrontation?
Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, Su Youyi was blasted out of Yonghe Palace.
It is said that Concubine Hui also planned to send someone to invite the queen to call the shots, but in the end, she was usually kind-hearted, so she didn't take Su Youyi seriously.
To be able to make Concubine Hui, who has always been mild-mannered, like this, Su Youyi is not simple.
The queen was wondering why Su Youyi, who had always been steady, suddenly became so unscrupulous, and was about to invite Su Youyi to speak in the evening, when she heard the news from the Shen Criminal Division.
"Queen Niangniang, that slave of the Internal Affairs Office was recruited, and it was Concubine Hui Niangniang who instructed him!"
"What?"
The queen didn't think that Concubine Hui had this reason to deliberately scare Su Youyi, but she always felt that Su Youyi's suspicion was unfounded, but she didn't expect that the result of the confession extorted by the Criminal Division turned out to be Concubine Hui.
Could it really be that Concubine Hui did this?
The Star Picking Pavilion soon got the news.
"Sure enough, Concubine Hui came, this person is locked up in the Shen Criminal Division, but it is very good to know the news in the palace, I suspect whoever he is, he will confess."
Su Youyi smiled confidently, and Shuya said: "I went to Yonghe Palace in the morning, the noble and Concubine Hui played such a good show together, don't the people behind the scenes really think that the noble person suspects Concubine Hui?" She must have sent someone to pass the news to the Shen Penal Division, so that the confession of the little eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office can be matched. ”
Su Youyi said: "Concubine Hui's acting skills are really good, but I acted in the same scene with her, which can be regarded as a good friendship, and in the end she fulfilled her wish." But I can't help it, except for Concubine Xian, Concubine Hui is the best object of suspicion, and Concubine Fang and Concubine Yan are not enough for this weight. ”
Shuya nodded and said in a low voice: "Isn't the noble person suspicious of Concubine Xian?" So now do you want to check whether Concubine Xian Niangniang has sent someone to the Criminal Division today? ”
"Look at you, you're scared silly, aren't you?"
Su Youyi smiled, "How could Concubine Xian blatantly send someone to the Shen Criminal Division?" This matter has to be investigated by the emperor, the chief manager knows everything about the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, he must know who came into contact with the little eunuch yesterday, and who these people are. If there is a virtuous concubine, then eight. Nine is not far from ten. ”
Shuya couldn't help but shudder.
"Are you saying that there are also virtuous concubines in the Shen Penal Division? No wonder the little eunuch is from the Internal Affairs Office, but he is so protective of the people behind the scenes, he must also be the person who was placed in the Internal Affairs Office by Concubine Xian. ”
Su Youyi sneered, "In the palace, she is a virtuous concubine, and she covers the sky with one hand." I was afraid that the emperor's love for me these days would make her unable to sit still, so she came up with this method to scare me. If you think about it, the emperor often comes to the Star Picking Pavilion, and always stays with me on the tower. Why did you see the hell that the emperor was not there, only you were there? ”
Shuya suddenly realized, "It turns out that the nobles have been suspicious of Concubine Xian since that time?" Also, isn't the most jealous of the nobles in the palace being favored by the virtuous concubine! ”
If this matter is finally found out to be the work of Concubine Xian, the relationship between her and Concubine Xian will be completely torn apart.
She had to plan for her future.
Gao Qishou's efficiency was extremely high, and the next day the emperor had lunch, and he reported the situation he had found, "Your Majesty, the noble Zhao is expected to be good, and among the three grandmothers who were responsible for the torture of the little eunuch, there was indeed a virtuous concubine and a lady. She has always claimed to be a virtuous concubine, so she is very arrogant and domineering, and the people in the Prudential Criminal Division know a lot about this matter. And the slave found out that the palace maid in the palace of the virtuous concubine yesterday had indeed met with this grandmother. ”
The emperor snorted lightly, "She pretended to be suspicious of Concubine Hui, and went to Concubine Hui's palace to make a confrontation trick." Concubine Xian thought that she really suspected Concubine Hui, so she pushed the boat down the river and asked the person from the Shen Criminal Division to confess Concubine Hui. If it weren't for this, I really wouldn't have been able to catch Concubine Xian's handle. ”
Gao Qishou said: "Your Majesty, now the truth has been ascertained, but whether this matter should be made public or not, and how to make it public, please ask the emperor to decide." ”
"Naturally, it should be public."
The emperor opened the fold on the imperial case and didn't raise his head, "But it's not for me to make it public, you go and tell Zhao Guiren about it, she naturally knows what to do." ”
Gao Qishou couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, in addition to having such trust in Prince Yong and others, the emperor rarely trusted others so much.
Concubine Xian's matter is related to the affairs of the previous dynasty, and he handed it over to Su Youyi so casually, which shows his grace.
He happily replied to Su Youyi, who pursed her lips, "What kind of grace is this?" The emperor is called throwing the pot, if you don't want to offend Concubine Xian, you will hand over this black pot to me, and I will not be killed by Concubine Xian in the future? ”
That's too straightforward.
Gao Qishou suddenly became embarrassed, "Don't be angry, nobleman, since the emperor asked you to do this, he will naturally protect you from the retaliation of Concubine Xian, don't you say?" ”
Gao Qishou has become more and more respectful to her recently, and Su Youyi couldn't bear to refute his face, so she said: "If I poke it out so much, Concubine Xian must wonder where I have the ability to find out so clearly." ”
Gao Qishou hesitated for a moment, "Then it is said that the nobleman privately asked the slave to investigate, and the slave helped this in order to flatter the concubine?" ”
"You can't, who in the palace doesn't know, you only follow the emperor's orders?"
Su Youyi thought for a while, "I lent Xiao Yizi to me for use, and said that I asked him to check." He is the apprentice of the chief manager, so he naturally has some methods, and he can also avoid the direct relationship with the emperor. It's just that the chief manager will protect Xiao Yizi in the future, and Concubine Xian can't get along with him. ”
Gao Qishou couldn't help but think of Xiao Yizi the day before yesterday, I don't know if he was smoked by the turpentine on his face or moved, and desperately shed tears to praise the nobleman.
said that at that time, the noble man was still thinking about him, and specially asked Shuya to bring him turpentine to wash the red paint on his face, and the bottle of oil is still treasured under his pillow.
It turned out that what he said was true, Su Youyi really cared about the slaves.
If you tell Xiao Yizi that the noble man wants to borrow him, I'm afraid that he will come in a hurry, where can I worry about Concubine Xian and him not being able to get by?
Gao Qishou smiled and nodded, "Okay, then the slave will go back and tell Xiao Yizi to let him come to the nobleman, be careful not to go." By the way, how are you going to set this off the ground? ”
Su Youyi smiled lightly, "Since you want to lift it, then naturally you can lift it as vigorously as possible, and the bigger the trouble, the better." ”
Early the next morning, Su Youyi went to the queen's palace early.
"The queen wants to be the master of the concubine!"
Su promised to come early with Sima Promise, and Fu Changzai and Bai promised to come early, and when he heard the voice in the hall, he didn't dare to go in for a while.
