The emperor grasped the key point, "Your nephew's silver lock is in that person's hand?" Explain that the person knows your family background and knows who you are in your family.

And you should also know that you bought the silver lock for your nephew, otherwise you wouldn't have threatened you with the silver lock.

In this case, that person should be someone you are familiar with. Can't you really guess who that person is? Listen to the sound, can't you hear it? ”

"Also, how did the person who threatened you know that the harem concubine would come to greet the queen?

And how did you conclude that the queen would entertain the harem concubines with pastries? With such an uncertain prophet, is that man a genius? ”

When Mr. Yin heard the emperor say this, he immediately realized what the emperor meant, kicked the little eunuch again, and scolded, "Don't you tell the truth?" ”

The little Yinzi cried directly, "The slave said, the slave said everything." ”

"Actually, it's the slave's brother who took money from others to let the slave do this. The slaves did not dare to do it, so the elder brother and sister-in-law said that there was not much food left in the house, and if the slaves were disobedient, they would not get the reward, and they would starve to death the old mother of the family. ”

"The slave's brother and sister-in-law, as early as a few days ago, handed over this medicine to the slave, and also instructed the slave that this potion was for the pregnant concubines in the harem. It is not clear which mother, brother and sister-in-law are.

The minions never found a chance to be drugged. It wasn't until today that the queen asked the kitchen to make pastries for all the ladies to taste, and the slaves found an opportunity. ”

"As for the brother and sister-in-law, whose money they received and who they did for them, the slaves are not clear."

When Xiao Yinzi said this, he crawled to the emperor's feet.

pleaded bitterly to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the slave deserves death, and please forgive the slave's family." No matter how bad it is, please forgive the old mother at home, and the child who has not yet understood! ”

After the little Yinzi finished speaking, he bit through the poison hidden in his mouth and committed suicide by taking the poison.

The emperor was angry and asked people to interrogate Xiao Yinzi's brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Yinzi's brother and sister-in-law lived in the capital, and the guards in the palace went to get people, and it only took an hour to come and go.

But after interrogating for a long time, all the punishments in the palace were used, and his brother and sister-in-law still didn't know anything.

In the end, Mr. Yin replied to the emperor, saying that it was the brother and sister-in-law of this little Yinzi, maybe he really didn't know. It's just that Xiao Yinzi wants to pull his brother and sister-in-law into the water.

Manager Yin said that after asking Xiao Yinzi about the palace people he was familiar with in the palace, as well as the people in his hometown.

He learned that it was true that Xiao Yinzi's brother and sister-in-law were not filial to his old mother, and that Xiao Yinzi's old mother was over seventy years old, and she still had to do laundry and cook for his brother and sister-in-law's family.

That's it, his sister-in-law didn't let the old man eat, and the old man could only sleep in the firewood room every night. Feed the chickens bran and wild herbs every day.

For this reason, Xiao Yinzi had a big quarrel with his brother and sister-in-law, but his brother and sister-in-law said that there was no extra money at home to serve the elderly.

Xiao Yinzi said, didn't he send all his monthly silver to his old mother? The brother and sister-in-law said that they had not seen the money. The old mother didn't come out with the money either.

In fact, the money had already been looted by his brother and sister-in-law. Although Xiao Yinzi understands, there is no way. can only give his monthly silver to his brother and sister-in-law, hoping that his brother and sister-in-law can be better to his old mother.

But his brother and sister-in-law were insatiable and idle. got the silver ticket, and he had already eaten, drunk and had fun, but he was still unwilling to support his mother. And Xiao Yinzi's brother is still addicted to gambling and owes a lot of gambling debts. I heard that if I can't do it again, I will have my hands and feet chopped off.

Maybe it's because of this that Xiao Yinzi's brother and sister-in-law forced Xiao Yinzi to do this kind of thing!

At the beginning, it was Xiao Yinzi who entered the palace and was stabbed, and when he became a eunuch with no descendants, his brother was able to marry a daughter-in-law. Now that his brother and sister-in-law are about to take revenge, Xiao Yinzi is really cold, so he deliberately pulled his brother and sister-in-law into the water.

Manager Yin relayed the matter to the emperor about the inquiry, and he was also very sympathetic to Xiao Yinzi in his heart. After all, he and Xiao Yinzi are both in the same experience.

If it weren't for the lack of food at home, who would send the boy to the palace and be stabbed by this?

But Xiao Yinzi is even more pitiful than him, at least his family is full of indebtedness to him.

Now that Xiao Yinzi is dead, there is no proof of death. I don't know which sentence of what Xiao Yinzi said is true. However, it can be seen from Xiao Yinzi's performance that this incident may really have nothing to do with the queen's mother.

But since this matter is not as Xiao Yinzi said, it has something to do with his brother and sister-in-law. So it is unknown whether what Xiao Yinzi said before, whether the threat was made is true or false.

Manager Yin also returned to the emperor that Xiao Yinzi's brother and sister-in-law couldn't stand the torture and died.

The emperor said very calmly, "Such a vicious person can be regarded as retribution." ”

"Ordered to go down and send the bodies of Xiao Yinzi and his brother and sister-in-law back to be disposed of by their families. In addition, let people pay extra attention to not let the old man be too stimulated. ”

Manager Yin's face twitched, and he was a little embarrassed, the old lady's son and daughter-in-law were dead, how could he not let the family be stimulated?

But then Manager Yin got the news that the old man had a tough heart? Seeing the bodies of the two sons and daughter-in-law, he didn't cry or make a fuss, so he spent a few copper plates to roll up the bodies of the eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law in a straw mat and bury them casually.

spent a lot of money to build a coffin and mourned Xiao Yinzi. Then he sold his house in the capital, took the money, took his grandson, and went to the countryside to join his daughter.

After Chief Yin heard about the follow-up of this incident, he also told the emperor. The emperor said that if this old lady has enough opportunities, she can become a general. It's just that in this life, she has become a peasant woman.

As for whether this matter has anything to do with the queen's mother, it depends on what the emperor thinks.

Anyway, in the eyes of the harem concubines, the queen still has not cleared the suspicion.

In the end, the emperor still believed that the queen was innocent, and the matter was closed.

The emperor gave the concubine a lot of good things to show comfort.

Concubine Ding didn't think so, she felt that this matter was just a good play directed and acted by the queen.

Regardless of whether it can be done or not, the queen can be exempted from punishment.

As soon as Xiao Yinzi died, this matter was unclear.

Concubine Ding did not believe that the queen was innocent. The queen is not a fool to be able to sit on the throne. In this palace, who has such a great ability to meddle in the affairs of the queen's palace?

The concubines can guess what the queen is for, to kill her children.

It's just that the emperor began to pay attention to her father, and he also made a promise to her. And the Guogong Mansion behind the queen is gradually declining.

The queen is worried that she is one step ahead of the queen and gives birth to a prince, which will threaten the queen's status and her own prince, and will block the path of the future queen's own prince.

Since Mr. Yin reported to the emperor about the affairs of Xiao Yinzi's family, the emperor has been worried and depressed.

Manager Yin noticed the difference between the emperor, but the emperor's thoughts, where did he dare to ask!

Until one night, the emperor suddenly asked Manager Yin, "You said that Xiao Yinzi's mother, does she love Xiao Yinzi?" Or is it her eldest son who loves her? ”

Manager Yin was stunned at first, why did the emperor suddenly ask about this?

was hesitating and didn't know how to answer, the emperor said, "If you say that you love Xiao Yinzi, but she sent Xiao Yinzi into the palace, and took the money exchanged for Xiao Yinzi to marry her eldest son." If she didn't care about Xiao Yinzi, but she buried Xiao Yinzi thickly, and only gave her eldest son a pair of broken grass mats. ”

"Manager Yin, which son do you think this old lady loves?"

The emperor's question made it difficult for Manager Yin to answer. The shrewd Manager Yin has already sensed the sensitivity of this issue.

Because this question is what the emperor cares about and has always kept in mind, no matter how he answers, it will not be in line with the emperor's wishes.

Manager Yin pondered for a while, and then said cautiously, "The slave thinks that the palms and backs of these hands are full of meat, and the old lady must be distressed by both sons." It's just that I'm forced to make a living, and I can't do it. ”

"The emperor may not know that in the countryside, women are at home from their fathers, married from their husbands, and their husbands from their sons, that is to say, one family at a time, if a man dies, it is the son who has the final say.

When Xiao Yinzi entered the palace, he was not yet ten years old and couldn't support a family. And his brother is past the age of marrying a daughter-in-law. Exchange one son for another son to start a family, and exchange for the food needed by the population of the family. Whoever it is, it will also be exchanged for a young son.

Because the countrymen rely on the harvest in the field to eat, the eldest son can work in the field, but the younger son cannot. The old lady did this for the livelihood of the whole family! ”

In the end, the eldest son was not filial, and the younger son was filial and coerced by the eldest son. Even if the old lady knew, there was nothing she could do. And in this way, her debt to her youngest son has reached the extreme. I think for parents, they would rather die for their son! ”

After Mr. Yin finished speaking, his face was melancholy. He is in the house, not the biggest, not the smallest. At the beginning, the family couldn't eat, and they were all about to starve to death. His parents did not think of sending him to the palace either.

It was he who couldn't bear to watch his family starve to death, so he volunteered to make this decision.

His family felt very guilty about him because of this. My mother was also blind from crying because of him.

His parents love him, but Xiao Yinzi's mother must also feel sorry for Xiao Yinzi, but there is no way.

The emperor only cared about one sentence, "You just said that for parents, they are willing to die in place of their own son?" ”

When Mr. Yin heard the emperor say this, he immediately felt a thrill in his heart.

Manager Yin knew that the focus of the emperor's sentence was the word "birth".
