Chapter 656: He Has a Grudge Against Me
The queen was taken to Dali Temple, and this matter soon spread to the streets, causing the people in the street teahouses to gather together and discuss.
"Did the emperor really send the queen to Dali Temple for interrogation? Is he willing? A middle-aged woman dressed in gray coarse cloth said in a low voice.
"Why are you reluctant, I have already sent the queen in a sedan chair today, there is such a big murder case, even if the emperor wants to protect it, he must take care of the people." A middle-aged woman dressed in dark green said lightly.
Indeed, the king is the boat, the people are the water, and the water can carry the boat or overturn the boat. As the emperor of a country, what should be considered is not the personal relationship of his children, but the social affairs of the country. It's just that...... This Deyue Tower and the Medicinal Diet Workshop have been open for so long, except for being framed when they became competitors with the prince of Nanchu, and it has been smooth sailing since then. Why is this poisoning incident somewhat similar to the previous methods of Kong Qi?
Su Yan, the secretary of Dali Temple, sat in the public hall of Dali Temple, Chu Lixue was dressed in plain clothes, standing in the public hall, Su Yan slapped the shocking wood hard, "Chu, you are the queen, it's just a matter of not worrying about the emperor, but you still connived at the guys in your shop to poison the guests, can you be guilty?" ”
What the? Where does this want her to plead, it is clear that she is being interrogated as a criminal, and there is no excuse for the crime that she wants to add. It's just that he wants to push her out and behead her to appease the people's grievances.
"Su Yan, you don't ask anything, just say that even though the guys in the store were poisoned, the palace was a little incomprehensible, this should have been investigated by an adult, and the palace would have assisted at most, but when the palace heard what the adults meant, it was determined that the palace did it?" Chu Lixue raised her voice.
"Hmph, Chu Clan, you have always been arrogant and jealous, and you are good at using poison, if you hadn't poisoned and murdered other people's lives, would it be your own official failure?" Su Yan said sharply.
"Lord Su is really a great official, this palace is arrogant and domineering, and he is jealous? If Master Su has no evidence and slanders the queen of the dynasty, it is a big crime to kill the head. ”
"Since ancient times, where is the queen only in the emperor's harem, if you are not jealous, how can you be the only one in the emperor's harem, although you also have children, don't you think it's too little?" Su Yan looked at Chu Lixue with contempt.
Hmph, it seems that this Su Yan doesn't want to deal with the poisoning of the people at all, but wants to set up another name to teach her, where is the affairs of the emperor's harem in charge of her? The hand is too long.
Before Chu Lixue came back, Su Yan spoke again, "Come on, beat this arrogant Chu clan who doesn't understand etiquette and law first, and kill her majesty." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, when Master Su said this about the queen just now, they felt that they were a little too bold, not to mention, it is also a fact that the queen favors the harem, but this is the queen's board, is this a bit too ......
Su Yan saw that no one dared to hit Chu Lixue, so he immediately said coldly: "You don't dare to beat her, do you?" If you don't beat her today, the official will have you all wounded forty boards. ”
Hearing this, where did these servants dare to be stunned, and then they thought about holding down Chu Lixue and making a move, Chu Lixue's cold eyes swept over, and everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to do it anymore.
"Su Yan, do you dare?" Chu Lixue said coldly.
"Why don't you dare?" Su Yan said arrogantly.
"Master Su, if you dare to touch our mother today, your head will be unnecessary." At this time, Ning Xiang said coldly.
Looking at that posture, there was really something wrong, and immediately, Chu Lixue figured it out, where is this Ning Xiang, it is Yi An at all, but why is she dressed up today like Ning Xiang, and the look of talking timidly just now, it really looks like Ning Xiang.
If it weren't for the fact that they were twin sisters, and Chu Lixue knew the personalities of the two of them, outsiders would never be able to tell the difference. Su Yan saw that the maid beside Chu Lixue came out to maintain, and also knew that she was the wife of the imperial guard, no matter what, he only had to deal with Chu Lixue, not anyone else, this woman, even though she was Chu Lixue's maidservant before, but he understood that a slave and maid could not help herself when she spoke and did things, and then said lightly: "This lady, you don't have to scare the official, if the official dares to do this, he will naturally put his life and death out of the way, the evidence of the queen's order to poison the people is conclusive, there is nothing to distinguish between this, put her in prison, Wait for the official to report to the emperor for disposal. ”
"If you want to arrest my mother, even me, I will not be separated from my master." Yi'an, who pretended to be Ningxiang, said lightly as he learned to be incense.
"You are at a loss, if this official is locked up with you, won't you become a faint official?" Su Yan raised his eyebrows and said.
"Hmph, if you want to detain this palace without any evidence, is it a Qing official?" Chu Lixue sneered.
"This official has never done anything corrupt or bribery, no matter what official position he is, he is doing his best, isn't he still a clean official?" Su Yan raised his eyebrows and said.
"Yes or no, adults are naturally very clear in their hearts, since you want to close this palace, this palace will be as you wish. It just so happens that the prison of this Dali Temple has not been to the main palace. After finishing speaking, Chu Lixue walked in the direction of the prison.
Seeing this, Su Yan was also slightly stunned, this Chu Lixue really has the style of a general, even if she is put in prison, she can do it so calmly, such a woman is indeed admirable, if she didn't have an enmity with herself, he would definitely not be like this.
In the prison, Chu Lixue and Yi'an chose a cell close to the outside, after all, the further they go inside, the darker and damper it will be, in fact, Chu Lixue also knows that in this ancient period, even the prison cells had to be graded, if you have money to give to those jailers, then you will get good treatment, for example, a clean and bright cell, three dishes and one soup meal a day, if not, then naturally live in the worst cell and eat a rancid meal.
"Master, do we really want to stay here?" Yi'an said softly.
"Nature."
"But this Su Yan is clearly deliberate, he ......"
"I'm afraid he has a grudge against me, or else he would be like this." Chu Lixue said lightly.
"Have a grudge against your master? The master is such a kind person, and he rarely gets involved in the affairs of the court, how can he have enmity with these courtiers? Yi'an wondered.
"Hehe, I'm afraid it's related to his daughter, just now he kept saying that the palace is jealous and does not tolerate the emperor's concubine, this matter has nothing to do with the poisoning of Deyue Tower, a thing that has nothing to do with it, but he was ignored by his dignified Dali Temple, don't you doubt the secret?" Chu Lixue said indifferently.
"What does the master mean that Su Yan is going to announce his personal vendetta? So could it be that he also did the one who sent someone to poison Deyue Tower? Yi An's eyes flashed.
"The communiqué's personal vendetta is true, but if he has the ability to poison Deyue Tower, the palace doesn't believe it, how can he understand poison when he is a Dali temple? Besides, it is not easy to poison Deyue Tower, not to mention, the root cause of the poisoning has not been found yet, and I am in prison, so I can give people outside enough time to investigate. Chu Lixue said lightly.
"Please rest assured, before leaving Fengluan Palace, the slave maid has already asked Leng Xue to inform Lord Ye Zun, I want to come with Lord Ye Zun's help, and it will soon be clear what the problem is." Yi'an said lightly.
Hearing this, Chu Lixue hooked her lips and smiled lightly, "Yi'an, you did a good job, in the next few days, we will stay quietly in this prison, as for food, this palace is expected that they will not dare to do anything out of the ordinary, unless, they want to be buried together as a family." ”
Chu Lixue knew that there were jailers listening to the corner, and the conversation between her and Yi'an was also for those jailers to listen, so that they would weigh this matter themselves, whether to accompany them to pit the queen together, and then wait for the emperor to raid the family and exterminate the family, or treat the queen well, and when the matter is clear, they will also give their families a peace and joy.
At lunchtime, all the meals in Fengluan Palace had been served, Nangong Zhaohui and Nangong Chaoxi looked at the dishes on the table, but they didn't see Chu Lixue for a long time.
"Father, where did the queen mother go? It's time to eat, Erchen is really hungry. Nangong Zhaohui said lightly.
"You two just eat first, your queen mother still has things to deal with, I'm afraid she won't be free for a few days." Nangong Yihan said lightly.
He really didn't know how to tell his two children about Chu Lixue's whereabouts, could it be that he wanted him to say to the two children, your mother was arrested by Dali Siqing, if you can't find out the case, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back?
If such words are said, I am afraid that the child will be sad, but how can the sadness on his face be hidden from the smart Nangong Zhaohui.
"Father, the queen mother went to the court today, the son has heard about it, wasn't the queen mother taken away by Dali Siqing?" Nangong Zhaohui looked at Nangong Yi and said coldly.
Being looked at like this by his son, Nangong Yihan is really a little weak-hearted, not for anything else, just because he can't protect his wife, I'm afraid that he will be looked down upon by his son.
"This ......"
"The father doesn't have to hide it from the son, the son has grown up, many things, the son also has the ability to distinguish very much, the father only needs to protect the safety of the queen mother, as for the younger sister, the son will take on the responsibility of the elder brother and take care of the younger sister."
Hearing Nangong Zhaohui say such a thing, Nangong Yihan's heart was very relieved, he didn't expect his son to grow up unconsciously, a child of twelve or thirteen, who speaks and does things in an orderly manner, is really inseparable from the careful teaching of her mother.
"Hui'er, don't worry, my father won't let your mother have anything to do, no matter who frames your mother this time, my father won't be merciful."
