The queen's side is also aware of the crisis - Qiu Mengmin even pressed out his title and life in public, and he is not quite sure, how can he be willing to make such a heavy bet?

After a moment of commotion among the hundred officials, a five-grade civil official in a light scarlet robe came out with a solemn expression: "The matter is serious, is there any evidence?!" ”

Qiu Mengmin raised his head, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, first looked at Princess Yang, who had not had a chance to intervene until now, and then moved his gaze to the several people who were prostrate on the ground behind Princess Yang: "The two old servants who served the concubine back then can prove it!" In fact, this king learned that the concubine was the biological mother of Youyou, thanks to the two loyal servants! ”

He bowed his hand to Danqi, "I implore the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, and the Queen Mother to allow them to be the ministers to testify!" ”

The emperor sat there with his face on his face as usual, and he was afraid that his mind was already wandering in the world.

Empress Jiang's eyes froze, her eyebrows frowned for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Empress Dowager Gu naturally looked happy, and bowed slightly: "Thinking that they are serving Concubine Xihe, you can get up and speak!" ”

Qiu Yulan bit her lip and looked at it with Ruan Qingyan - but saw the two people standing up behind Princess Yang, one old and one strong, both women.

The old man has a crane skin, but he is strong and energetic; The young man is only in his thirties, with red lips and white teeth, and he is quite beautiful. Qiu Yulan had no impression of them, but Mother Li behind her let out a low voice and blurted out, "Mother Guan, Dongyao!?" ”

Qiu Yulan's heart sank: These two people are really old people who have served the concubine?!

"Silence!" Mother Li's loss of voice exclaimed, which made the attendant who was responsible for maintaining the order of the court meeting under Dan Qi frowned, shook off the whip and scolded!

Qiu Yulan hurriedly turned around and gave a reassuring look to Li's mother - the mother didn't look at them, and saluted Danqi in a proper manner, and said clearly: "The maid Guan is not enough to worry about his name, but he is a person from Kuizhou, and he lives in Beijing with his parents." After the death of his parents, he was forced to make ends meet and sold at the age of thirteen. He entered the palace to serve, and at the age of sixteen, he was able to serve in close proximity to the grace of the concubine of Xianxihe. Until the concubine died, the prince took pity on his servant and allowed him to return to his hometown to retire, and then left the Xihe Palace! Recently, I heard that the prince needs a servant to prove the past, and he has the courage to go to the palace, and he has to look at the sky and the phoenix, although he has no regrets in death! The servant will never dare to lie a word! ”

This mother is always over sixty years old, from the time she served Concubine Xihe at the age of sixteen to the death of Concubine Xihe eleven years ago, which means that she has served Concubine Xihe for more than 30 years! Almost as soon as Concubine Xihe passed through the door, she began to serve.

With this point, she is more qualified than Mother Li - Mother Li only started to be the head chef for Concubine Xihe in her twenties, and now she is only in her fifties!

What's more, Mother Li presides over the kitchen, and it is impossible to be by the concubine's side all day long, where can she compare with this mother who is a close subordinate?

And Qiu Mengmin not only found a Guan mother to prove it, but also a Dong Yao!

Dong Yao said this: "The servant Wen's family, Zeng Mengxihe Concubine gave the name Dongyao, and he was born to the Xihe Wangfu family!" A few years before the concubine passed away, the maid had the honor to serve in front of the bed, the head of the big maid! ”

Qiu Yulan bit her lip.

The queens all looked solemn!

Guan's mother reported her identity to Dongyao, and began to describe the situation of Concubine Xihe before her death: "...... After the news of the death of the prince came back, because the concubine only had such a little flesh and blood as the prince, she was in pain after hearing the news and fainted on the spot! That night, he fell ill! ”

"At that time, the county lord of Ningyi was only one year old, and the ancestor was only eight years old, and he still needed to be taken care of. And Princess Ruan was also bedridden after learning the news - the palace was afraid that the princess and Princess Ruan would lose, so they were in a hurry for a few days. As a result, the ancestor accidentally fell into the lake and died, and the concubine was already sick, but after learning the news, she vomited blood for a few days, and then ......"

Before the concubine died, she repeatedly told Princess Ruan not to hold the doctor responsible. He also said that the first prince and the previous son are gone, and the lord of the king of the West River should be inherited by the current prince. And now the biological mother of the prince, although she was expelled from the concubine because she was young, she is the biological mother of the prince after all! After the prince took over the Xihe Palace, it was advisable to resolve the previous grievances, and the midwife returned to the mansion to take care of him, so as to fulfill the responsibility of the son of man. ”

"The concubine also asked the maid and Dong Yao to tell the prince, asking the prince to read it for the sake of the same king of Xihe, and take care of Princess Ruan and the county lord of Ningyi for some ......"

When Mother Guan talked to Dong Yao about the back, she seemed to touch the feelings of the master and servant, and she couldn't help but have red eyes and choked her vocal cords!

And Qiu Yulan listened expressionlessly, his heart was as cold as ice!

This description may seem ordinary and normal, but it is definitely well designed!

- Let's first talk about Qiu Zhongyan's death in battle, which led to the cause of Concubine Xihe: "Because the concubine only has such a little flesh and blood as the prince" is basically implying that the concubine only values her own Qiu Zhongyan, and does not regard Qiu Mengmin, the eldest son, as a son! The implicit implication is that Concubine Xihe is not a good mother-in-law!

Besides, when Qiu Jinglan died, emphasizing that Qiu Jinglan and Qiu Jinglan "still needed to be taken care of" at that time was tantamount to blaming Princess Ruan, a mother, for not taking good care of her children! The sentence "I'm afraid that the concubine and Princess Ruan will lose" has a relationship with the subordinates who are responsible for taking care of Qiu Jinglan!

If the above points are still deliberate, the next two words are undoubtedly full of malice and viciousness!

"Before the concubine died, she repeatedly told Princess Ruan not to hold the doctor responsible", the implication is that if the concubine does not advise, Princess Ruan will pursue the doctor - obviously she was stimulated by the loss of her son in old age, and it cannot be cured by medicine stones, but if it is not cured, the doctor is blamed - it is conceivable that after this sentence, people who hear it will more or less feel that Princess Ruan is unreasonable and likes to be angry!

What's more, before Guan Mother and Dong Yao came out, Qiu Mengmin emphasized that "this king learned that Concubine Yuan You's biological mother was also thanks to the two loyal servants who told each other", so a comparison - Princess Ruan also listened to Concubine Xihe's last words in favor of Qiu Mengmin, but only Guan Mother and Dong Yao told Qiu Mengmin.

It's just straight to say - Princess Ruan is dissatisfied with Qiu Mengmin.

Dissatisfied to the point of concealing the last words of Concubine Xihe!

So as the biological daughter of Princess Ruan, Qiu Yulan disobeyed and slandered Qiu Mengmin, and it seems that there is a reasonable explanation: to say that it sounds good, she was misled by Princess Ruan; To say that it is ugly is to be instigated by Princess Ruan!

"The lord of the king of Xihe should be inherited by the current prince", the above has almost smeared Concubine Xihe and Princess Ruan, but here it is confirmed that Qiu Mengmin inherited the legal identity of the prince in the tone of his mother!

Next, I will mention the matter of Mrs. Lu, "to fulfill the responsibility of the son of man", there is this sentence, if you oppose it, then you have to face the question of Concubine Xihe's unkindness and preventing the concubine from "fulfilling the responsibility of the son of man"!

The most finishing touch is the last sentence - please read it for the sake of the same king of Xihe, and take care of Princess Ruan and Lord Ningyi!

Because of this last sentence, if you connect up and down, everyone will come to the conclusion: In the early years, Concubine Xihe was jealous of her eldest son, Qiu Mengmin's mother and son, and drove them out of the house by virtue of her mother-in-law! It seems to be ruthless!

However, due to the death of Qiu Zhongyan and Qiu Jinglan, Concubine Xihe was hit hard and was about to die, at this time, Concubine Xihe had to change her attitude to people in order to consider the remaining granddaughter Qiu Jinglan!

So she not only asked Princess Ruan to forgive the doctor who treated her, but also was gentle with Qiu Mengmin and agreed that he would take the old lady back to Lu in exchange for Qiu Mengmin taking care of Princess Ruan and Qiu Yulan!

But Princess Ruan died after explaining her words because she was not like Concubine Xihe, and she is still alive! So she is still hostile to Qiu Mengmin - so there is the niece Qiu Yulan who exposed her uncle's disrespect for her mother!

Fair and reasonable! Impeccable!

A mean and jealous, narrow-minded, only thinking about her own flesh and blood, and not caring about her concubine, but because of fate, she has to bow to her concubine, the image of her mother-in-law is simply about to come out!

The image of a brother and daughter-in-law who is also mean, narrow-minded, and only cares about her dead husband and son, and even teaches her own daughter to be hostile to her innocent uncle, is vivid!

The image of a young ignorant and unreasonable niece who trusts the ignorant and unfilial niece instigated by her mother is vivid!

What Qiu Yulan discussed with Ruan Qingyan before, which can be said to be the biggest victory in this battle - the problem that the genealogy is not so easy to modify, under this rhetoric, it was directly skipped - Concubine Xihe drove out Mrs. Lu, and the genealogy is remembered! But the concubine changed her mind before she died! Even if I didn't have time to add Mrs. Lu's name back to the Qiu family tree, someone testified that Mrs. Lu was Qiu Mengmin's mother, and no one was allowed to raise her mother. !

Yang Tao, the servant of the ministry, almost wanted to look up to the sky and laugh three times!

He couldn't wait to ask, "Lord Ningyi!" The facts are all there - what else do you have to say?! ”

Princess Yang listened to her cousin's question, and her heart was happy: "With her mother and Dong Yao here, even if the Qu Shan family stands up - a cook who is far away in the kitchen, she can compare with her personal subordinates who have served for most of her life?!" Especially in the words between my mother and Dong Yao, I have already made the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty treat Concubine Xihe and Ruan's concubine cheaply. Everyone had a bad feeling, Qu Shan's family had been stopped by the Ruan family from selling back then, and with this, even if they could say something, it could be said that it was instigated or misled by the Ruan family! ”

For a while, everyone looked at Qiu Yulan, whose face was slightly pale!

"Absolutely!" Qiu Yulan was silent for a moment, and the face was already full of whispers, seeing that the Empress Dowager Shangshougu was about to condemn her, Empress Jiang's face was gloomy but she couldn't find the right words to protect her back - she finally spoke!

didn't beg for mercy, didn't ask for guilt, still stood gracefully, with a dignified and calm expression, "What my mother and Dongyao said is not true!" Mother Li behind me......"

"This Mother Li is said to be just the cook of Concubine Xihe?" The fifth-grade official who had replaced Han Shan and fought with her was also listed again, and said mockingly, "It turns out that in the eyes of Lord Ningyi, the smoky cook girl who burns all day long is closer than the personal maid and mother?!" ”

The man held the morning wat in his hand, waved it in all directions, and asked with a smile: "My lords, have you ever heard something more ridiculous than this?" ”

"Ning Yi is still young, and it is inevitable that he will be deceived." Princess Yang finally found an opportunity to speak, and immediately bent down to apologize to everyone, and sighed, "This Mother Li's family, after the death of the concubine, was rubbed into her room by Ruan's younger siblings to serve, it can be said that they watched Ning Yi grow up, and they are very close to Ning Yi!" It was also because we didn't notice that they instigated Ning Yi......"

These words undoubtedly confirmed that Qiu Yulan was misled by the unvirtuous biological mother Princess Ruan and the ill-intentioned subordinates, and deliberately targeted Qiu Mengmin!

The Queen's Party has been defeated!

At this moment, Ruan Qingyan, who had stood up to now like Princess Yang just now, suddenly raised his head and said lightly: "Yang Shilang and Princess Yang must not be too happy too early - the Ruan family and the Lian family, the maiden family of Concubine Xihe, both have a handwritten letter from Concubine Xihe before her death eleven years ago, which can prove that Concubine Yang's permission to return to the palace is a fictitious and fabricated thing out of thin air!" ”

Flat Thunder !!
