Chapter 781 - The Word Takes the Lead Chapter 782 - The Truth

The emperor still has a glimmer of hope for the Empress Dowager, and he doesn't want to see her completely abandon her conscience for the sake of the word, and Concubine Hua Fenghua has nothing to say about the Queen Mother regardless of what she has done, how can the Queen Mother ignore her death and only recite the word Lizi? And for the sake of the interests of the Shangguan family, the Empress Dowager should no longer shield that person, and should give justice to the dead Concubine Hua.

He really hopes that he can see human nature in the Empress Dowager, Concubine Hua's death can be completely separated from the interests of the Shangguan family, not for the interests of the so-called family, even Concubine Hua will not let her go after her death, and will use her death to wronged others, and ask her to continue to serve the Shangguan family after her death.

The Empress Dowager's eyes flickered when she was asked by the emperor's words, and she closed her eyes slightly, and what flashed in front of her eyes was Concubine Hua's voice and smile before her death, and her ears seemed to be able to hear what she said yesterday, she said that she would send shoes to herself today, and it was she who made it for the Empress Dowager to wear in the snow, that is, she was warm and not afraid of slipping; But now the shoes were not given to her by Concubine Hua herself, and she could no longer hear Concubine Hua's coquettish words.

People in the palace will show their filial piety in front of her, and even the queen will do face-saving work, but she knows very well that Concubine Hua is still a little different from the filial piety of other people in the palace, and she is really close to her.

Opening her eyes and looking at Concubine Ning, the Empress Dowager's eyes flashed again, she lowered her eyelashes and sighed a long sigh and said: "Concubine Hua is indeed really filial to the Mourning family, so the Mourning family believes that Concubine Hua will know that the Mourning family will make decisions for her." "Concubine Hua has always had a deeper affection for the family than Concubine Ning, and she is also a sensible child, I believe that she will understand that what she did was forced to do it, and she will not blame her.

Hongluan looked at the Empress Dowager: "Concubine Hua fell in the imperial garden, the slave maid and the palace people around Concubine Hua heard her words, she seemed to know who poisoned her," Speaking of this, she glanced at Concubine Ning: "Concubine Hua personally said that she wanted the slave maid to find out that person to avenge her, and asked the Empress Dowager to give the dead Concubine Hua a justice, so that she could close her eyes under the nine springs." ”

After speaking, she looked at Concubine Ning: "Concubine Ning, if you really have a trace of true affection, don't let Concubine Hua and everyone be too desperate." Everyone is at fault, do you still have no regrets? "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Concubine Ning shouted angrily: "Is there room for you to speak here?" Concubine Hua is my sister-in-law, no matter what, I have to find out the real murderer for her, you don't have to worry about this, as far as the grievances between you and my sister are concerned, you also have the intention of killing, why bother to come to the cat crying mouse fake mercy now. ”

The emperor glanced at Concubine Ning and ignored her, and looked at the Empress Dowager: "Imperial grandmother, my grandson really doesn't want Concubine Hua to have tears under Jiuquan." He really wanted to have the last bit of warmth in this palace.

The Empress Dowager sighed: "There is nothing more important than finding out the truth at the moment, the mourning family, like the emperor, doesn't want Concubine Hua to go away like this." Now, wake up the palace people around Concubine Ning and ask her clearly, no matter who does such an unreasonable thing, the mourning family will never spare her. ”

The emperor retracted his gaze and nodded slowly: "What the Empress Dowager said is reasonable. After he sat down, he didn't look at Concubine Ning's palace people.

After the palace people were woken up by the imperial doctor and saw where they were, they didn't panic too much; The moment she woke up, she didn't exclaim, didn't speak immediately, but slowly turned her eyes to see the surroundings clearly, which made Hongluan have a bad idea in her heart: This person is not like an ordinary palace person.

The Empress Dowager spoke: "You are Ling'er by Yuanhua's side, the mourning family has seen you a few times, do you have anything to say to the mourning family?" ”

Ling'er was beaten and injured and couldn't kneel to salute, and she didn't want to salute: "It's also fair to say, the emperor has found the slave's body, yes, Imperial Doctor Li was bought by the slave and maid, but he didn't know how to lift the slave and maid, so he invited a few people to invite his wife and children to other places with silver, and he was willing to obey." It's just that God doesn't pity me, and in the end, he still didn't get rid of the biggest traitor around the emperor. ”

She said this and stared at Hongluan fiercely: "But even if you can hide this time, you won't be able to hide next time, I will wait for you to be your companion on Huangquan Road." ”

Hongluan looked at her: "I haven't seen you, and I don't know you, why do you hate me so much?" ”

"Are you just a treacherous villain, confusing the emperor into becoming a nobleman and thinking that you can ascend to the sky in one step? Do you think you can harm the people of the official family? "No mistakes, no skipping words. Ling'er took a sip of Hongluan, very disdainful.

Hongluan looked at her and tilted her head: "But now the person who wants to harm the Shangguan family is not me but you, it's just that you are a slave who dares to kill the girl of the Shangguan family, Concubine Hua in the palace?" Don't think that if you say that it is your idea, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor will believe it, and it is better to tell the truth if you want to suffer less. ”

Ling'er was silent for a while, and she looked up at the emperor: "Haven't I suffered much?" To tell you the truth, I was going to say that you bought me to act, but now it's not feasible, and it's cheaper for you. After she finished speaking, she looked at the Empress Dowager: "Ling'er has the kindness of the Shangguan family and has asked the Empress Dowager for her guilt." She never looked at Concubine Ning, as if her master was not there.

The Empress Dowager shouted angrily: "You still know that you have received the kindness of the Shangguan family, so you want to kill Concubine Hua?" Her gaze glanced over to the Queen.

"The Empress Dowager, the person Ling'er wants to poison is not Concubine Hua but the queen, because the queen is not worthy of the world at all. Jealous, stupid, no open-mindedness, she will only think of herself when she encounters trouble, she has never had the world and the emperor in her heart, and she has never put the world and the emperor first, such a person stealing the position of the queen is a great misfortune for my Heavenly Empire. She also harmed Ling'er's master and couldn't be happy for the time being, how could Ling'er tolerate her? Ling'er stared at the queen, her eyes full of resentment.

The queen was furious when she heard this: "You hateful slave dare to insult the palace? This palace is going to punish your nine clans. ”

Hearing this, Ling'er sneered at the queen: "You will punish the nine clans, you can only see the mistakes of others, but you can't see what you have done wrong at all; But I don't have anything to worry about, I'm sure you'll come underground to meet me soon, and if someone like you can live a long time, God really doesn't have long eyes. ”

Hongluan walked up to Ling'er and squatted down: "You can also hurt the queen?" How many people are up and down in Kunning Palace, just do it with how many silver taels you want, and there are some people who can't be bought with silver, and the tea set in the tea room wants to avoid everyone's eyes with your hands and feet, you can't do it with the strength of a small palace person, right? There are many words without mistakes, I advise you to tell the truth, no one will believe your nonsense - to put it more clearly, without the nobles in the palace, you can't even move the flowers and plants in the Kunning Palace. ”

Chapter 782: The Truth

Ling'er looked at Hongluan and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "You want to catch the master of my family?" You just die of this heart, worry more about yourself, do you think the Shangguan family will let you go if you make things like this? Compared to the queen, she will kill you first, which can be regarded as your glory. ”

Hongluan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Don't you think it's a pity to die like this?" She also wanted to convince Ling'er.

Ling'er no longer paid attention to Hongluan and touched the ground with her head: "The Queen Mother, even if Ling'er hates the queen again, but a small palace person with a slave and maid can't move a single hair of the queen, so the slave and maid can only endure it, fortunately, God has eyes." After she finished speaking, she glanced at the queen again: "At that time, the slave maid really thought that God would not allow this stupid and stupid woman to steal the position of the queen again, and actually let the person she trusted the most and relied on as her confidant to find the slave and maid." ”

"The slaves and maids are all instructed by Qi Zhaorong beside the queen." She pointed to the current Qi Guifei and said clearly: "It's that she wants to kill the queen, because she is still doing things as a palace person after Zhaorong, and she has never been regarded by the queen as a nobleman in the palace, and she has already hated the queen." ”

Hearing this, Hongluan slowly stood up and looked at Qi Guifei: "Did you hear that?" This is where you end. None of the people noticed that she and the emperor quietly exchanged glances. She only said a word to Qi Guifei before turning back to Ling'er and saying, "Do you think that this will exonerate the person who instructed you?" "No mistakes, no skipping words. She said this, and looked up at Concubine Ning: "Concubine Qi wants to harm the queen, why do you want to buy you?" Wouldn't it be better for her to do it herself, and it would be good to give you a handle? You don't think that these two lies can fool so many people. ”

Ling'er said loudly: "Don't say anything else, just say the same, if it weren't for Qi Zhaorong in Kunning Palace, how could it be possible to avoid so many people being poisoned?" How could it be possible to let those palace eunuchs stay away? As for her desire to buy me, I didn't understand it at first, but now I understand that it is to blame my master when things fail."

Hongluan heard this: "Ling'er, you are really a smart woman, but you have used God's love for you in the wrong place." After speaking, she walked back to the emperor and sat down and said to the pale-faced Qi Guifei: "You still don't say everything now, waiting for the empress dowager and the emperor to punish your nine clans?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

The emperor looked at Qi Guifei: "I can't say whether you are the mastermind now, but as Ling'er said, if you are not arranging everything in Kunning Palace, it is impossible for Luan'er to find a palace person and make tea by herself, and those tea sets cannot be poisoned." Now I'm giving you a chance to tell the truth or not at all. ”

Qi Guifei's legs were weak, and she crawled in front of the emperor and kowtowed: "No, it's not a concubine, it's not about concubines, please ask the emperor to investigate, please ask the empress dowager to investigate." At this time, she still thought that the Empress Dowager could help her, and she was really blinded by lard.

Hongluan looked at Qi Guifei who was crying, how could she not see the figure of Bing'er, the original person from the Clever Palace, it was to let Qi Guifei do such a stupid thing, in fact, she really has to be a smart person. Li Lingzhi was dizzy, but the smart Bing'er was still thinking about the Empress Dowager saving her at this time, which was really speechless.

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "The rules in the palace have been forgotten, and if you have something to say, you can say what kind of system it is called to cry like this." After she stopped Qi Guifei's crying: "You have always been in charge of things in Kunning Palace, there are some things that you can't deny, as long as the mourning family sends someone to ask the people in Kunning Palace, they will know that you have ordered them to do it." ”

Qi Guifei raised her head blankly, and after a while she laughed, and then there seemed to be something ridiculous, which made her laugh uncontrollably, laughing forward and backward, laughing until the end with three points of madness; Even the Queen Mother's shouting couldn't make her stop, and it was someone who slapped her twice to stop her laughter.

"I'm so stupid, no wonder others." Qi Guifei stopped smiling, her eyes returned to their original transparency, and that Bing'er came back again: "Who is too greedy, even if I stay with the queen for a lifetime, at least I am still a Zhaorong, and I may go further, even if the queen has an accident in the future, I will not be too implicated, and I can still do it with my self-preservation." ”

"I shouldn't have listened to people's words, thinking that it was a good opportunity, thinking that I could be a real noble person in the future, and I could make people look at each other squarely, but I never thought that there could be such a good thing from the sky?" Qi Guifei looked at the emperor: "Whether the emperor believes it or not, what the concubine said is true, although there is no basis or evidence." ”

She stretched out her hand and pointed at Concubine Ning, tears flowed down: "It's her, everything she asked me to do, saying that from now on, I can ensure that I will become a real noble in the palace, and I will no longer be called by the queen as a slave." ”

The emperor looked at Concubine Ning: "Empress Dowager, I thought it was ......"

"Emperor, this is clearly because Ling'er is Ning Concubine's person, pointing out that Qi Guifei wanted to poison the queen, but in the end she killed Concubine Hua and felt resentful, and wanted to avenge Ning Concubine for herself." The Empress Dowager said calmly: "Don't say that Concubine Ning and Concubine Hua are sisters of the same father and mother, it is impossible to kill Concubine Hua, and besides, just like Concubine Qi said, how can it be determined that Concubine Ning did it without evidence?" It's just that Concubine Qi wants to frame Concubine Ning. ”

The emperor looked at Ling'er and said viciously: "You really don't want to say it? ”

Ling'er was not afraid at all: "The slave and maid have already explained everything clearly, I don't know if the emperor still wants the slave and maid to say?" ”

The emperor took a long breath and looked at the Empress Dowager: "Everyone knows the rights and wrongs of this matter, Empress Dowager, do you really have to stop thinking about it carefully?" "He called the concubines in the palace just for this time - everyone in the palace knows it, the empress dowager, do you still want to exonerate Concubine Ning? Even if it is exculpated, the concubines in the palace are all like Spiegel's in their hearts, is Concubine Ning still useful to the Shangguan family?

The Empress Dowager lowered her eyelids: "The mourning family wants to find the real culprit for Concubine Hua, and now that the physical witnesses are all available, why didn't the emperor ask about Concubine Qi's sin but meant something?" The mourning family didn't understand that the emperor wanted to do it. At the end, she raised her eyes to look at the Emperor, and her gaze became unusually cold.

Concubine Ning didn't say a word and just knelt there honestly, she knew that it was useless for her to say more now, her life was all in the mouth of the Queen Mother, so she could only keep praying for God's mercy and not letting the Queen Mother abandon her.

The emperor slapped on the table angrily: "Drag Ling'er down and kill me with a cane, you have to beat me slowly, remember to give her a bowl of old ginseng soup and hang her life." "He is not such a vicious character, and he is obviously angered by the Empress Dowager.
