Chapter 185: Edict
"I listened to your call to check carefully, and the people below asked her neighbors and found that she lived there two days after she left the palace, where did she go in the past two days?"
Wang Qi waited for Helan Qin to ask a question with an excited face, but only attracted a rather impatient look from him. had to continue stupidly: "She is also filial and went back to visit her grandparents who raised her." The point is that her grandparents lived in a spacious compound and were served, like a rich family in the countryside. Every time she left the palace before, she gave them a lot of money, saying that it was a reward from the palace, and she didn't want to give it to her biological mother, so she wanted them to stay for the elderly. ”
"Go on."
"On the biological mother's side, only recently got a sum of money, which was sent secretly, and the palace maid did not show up, which should be used to hide people's eyes. So she may have been doing things for people a long time ago. ”
Helan Qin: "Well, if it is a long-term support, there should be a guarantee of loyalty, and I will not casually explain to the master behind it." This is indeed a doubt. ”
Wang Qi narrowed his eyes with a smile, it was not easy to finally get his approval.
"So her real purpose is not to smear Concubine Xiao Min, but to slander Concubine Xiao." This is the answer to the royal deed.
Helan Qin: "It's not slander, she and the master behind her knew that the concubine couldn't stand the investigation, so they deliberately planted a false accusation to lead His Majesty to check, so that those henchmen could only shake out her secrets in order to suffer less crimes." ”
Wang Qi is rarely smart: "It can be seen that this person knows a little bit about the details of the concubine, if he slanders at will, the palace people will not be able to bite it." ”
Helan Qin smiled: "What about others, are there any gains?" ”
Wang Qi: "It's just a day, and it's good to have these." ”
"The matter of the concubine is basically settled, and I guess they should move on to the next target." Helan Qin hooked the corners of his lips, revealing a bewitching look that was very inconsistent with this face: "Who is next, will it be Your Highness?" ”
Wang Qi seemed to pour a scoop of cold ice water on a hot day: "Sir, don't scare people." ”
Helan Qin's expression gradually became solemn, and his tone was still light: "The concubine is just a woman, is it necessary to spend so much effort to deal with her?" ”
"Perhaps, it's someone the concubine has harmed?" Wang Qi hesitated.
"It's not that simple." Helan Qin remembered the meeting with Meng Ning yesterday, if their purpose was to support the eldest princess, then they had to eradicate all those who had the ability to inherit the throne, and Wang Qi was the first to bear the brunt!
But he can't say this conclusion yet, for fear of scaring him. But you can go and say hello to his father first, lest he believe it when someone really calculates the head of Wang Qi.
Ying Sui naturally has no relatives to explore, and she doesn't have anything to do, but she just mentions Helan Qin with Helai, and she is depressed in her heart, and she wants to come out to breathe. She carried a small basket on her arm, stopped and walked in the lively street market, bought a little bit of everything she saw, and prepared to take it back to coax He Lai and a group of young girls in the palace.
Seeing the way they twittered and their eyes lit up on beautiful things, Ying Xuan could put herself in her shoes and imagine that if she hadn't chosen this path in the first place, she might have looked like this at this time.
Ying Sui laughed at herself, how could she look more and more like an old woman who has aged through the years.
After walking a short distance in the downtown area, Ying Xuan noticed that someone was following her, she was not in a secret meeting with others, so they would follow if they wanted.
After a day of wandering, not only filled the basket, but also added a small burden, the eagle was stuck in the point of closing the palace gate.
The palace maids are boiling, although Aunt Wulan is a little stricter, she is a considerate and generous lord, and she has brought back a lot of good things, and it seems that she will be more dedicated to her orders in the future.
The palace maids all knew that Aunt Wulan had her back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and was very big, so there was really no need to win them over, and at this time she finally became a little closer to her.
He Lai was embarrassed to grab things from the palace maids, just seeing that Ying Xuan's expression was a little less gloomy than usual, and the smile shown by the mask was a little more sincere, she already knew that Ying Xuan had been shopping for a day today. He can't help but sigh, shopping, spending money, decompressing artifacts, ancient and modern killing!
Ying Yu took out a paper bag from his sleeve and gave it to He. He Lai's eyes lit up, it turned out that what was given to her was open, and my sister really still thought about her in her heart. She was pleasantly surprised to separate the tight paper in her bag, and before she could see anything, she smelled a familiar and alluring smell.
It's actually a roasted sweet potato with a temperature!
He Lai was a little crying and laughing.
Although this thing is delicious, in the eyes of wealth fans, no amount of gold or silver is too much, sister, you still don't know me well enough.
He Lai didn't ask her to accompany him tonight, and Ying Yu went back to his room. Just as he was about to push the door, someone behind him said, "Auntie, your clothes have been changed, Aunt Qiuping ordered me to send them to you to see." ”
This voice was very familiar, Ying smiled, turned around and lowered his voice: "Why did the patriarch come here himself?" ”
This little eunuch who gave clothes was actually pretended to be Ma Cheng!
Ying Xuan took the tray containing the clothes and said with a smile: "Thank you to Aunt Qiuping on my behalf, there is Father-in-law Lao who runs this trip." Very familiarly, he handed Ma Cheng a small ingot of broken silver.
Ma Cheng took the silver and bent down to salute: "Aunt Xie." He lowered his voice again, "Why don't you do it yet?" ”
Yingqiu: "Right now, I won't waste the horse patriarch's years of hard work." ”
In the prison, day and night are dim glimmers that make the jailers drowsy, and the braziers on the walls are more to create an atmosphere for the prisoners, and they can be baked with a hot soldering iron at any time. On the cross-shaped wooden stake, a man is tied in the most prominent position in the center, and there are whip marks on the upper body, branding, redness, swelling and pus after the scalding blisters burst, and all kinds of scars left by torture instruments that are impossible to distinguish unless you are insiders. There should have been trousers, but the torture was not limited to the upper body, the trousers had been torn into strips of cloth, some wrapped around the waist, some floating on the two bloody legs, and each foot had a blackened wound, as if pierced by some sharp weapon.
But people are alive.
A wind-blown fire on the wall danced, bringing in a slightly fresh air, but it didn't dilute the indescribable taste much. A very wealthy waiter walked down the steps with the outer figure, greeting people as he walked: "The brothers have worked hard, the Sprinkle family brought some wine and food on it to relieve the fatigue of the brothers!" ”
"My father-in-law is polite!" Several jailers exchanged glances and walked away with a smile. At the end, I didn't forget to say more: "This person is almost finished, father-in-law be careful." It was a tactful reminder not to kill people.
