Xia Jingyan frowned and looked at Wen Qiu, the palace maid lying on the ground: "It is estimated that it will be delayed if the imperial doctor calls over again, it is better for the county lord of labor to show her, after all, she is the slave of the Jade Concubine Niangniang, and it is difficult to say if something happens." “

Mu Qingya originally had this intention, so she didn't shirk it, and called the two palace maids to turn Wen Qiu, who was lying on the ground, over and wipe her wrists clean, before getting out of the way and letting Mu Qingya step forward to check her pulse.

Watching her movements, Shen Ningyu's fingers tightened slightly, with obvious worry in her eyes.

After a while, Mu Qingya wiped her fingers slightly, got up and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that my internal organs were injured, and if you take care of it, you won't leave any symptoms." ”

Shen Ningyu breathed a sigh of relief, and when she heard that Wen Qiu had nothing to do, she relaxed, and her thoughts slowly became clear, this matter must have been designed by someone, otherwise Wen Qiu would not have had an accident suddenly, and Xia Jingyan's proposal just now was too sudden, originally she was looking for her to chat, why did she suddenly come out to see Mu Qingya, so there must be Xia Jingyan's handwriting in this, even if it was not her instigation, there must be her connivance and participation, after all, she is now the master of the entire harem, Something could escape her eyes.

"County Lord, just now Liang Yi's minion said that Wen Qiu suddenly went crazy, I don't know if you have found out what the reason is?"

Mu Qingya handed the silk handkerchief that had wiped her fingers to the palace maid on the side, and turned her head to look at Liang Yi on the ground: "This is going to ask this minion." ”

Shen Ningyu's brows tightened, her eyes flashed, and she reprimanded without hesitation: "Liang Yi, this palace has always taken you a lot, I didn't expect you to dare to harm Wen Qiu, you know, without her plea, this palace would not have saved you." ”

Liang Yi's face was full of panic, and he looked up at Xia Jingyan on the side: "The slave didn't ...... Imperial concubine, do you have a word for the slave? ”

Xia Jingyan's face changed: "Bold minion, what are you talking nonsense, this palace is in charge of the palace affairs of the harem, so naturally everything will be handled impartially, how can you speak for a minion?" ”

The look on Liang Yi's face became more and more panicked.

There was another announcement at the door.

"The second prince has arrived, the third prince has arrived, and Princess Mingli has arrived."

Mu Qingya's expression moved, and when she turned her head to see Mo Junqing, who was walking a little quickly, her heart warmed slightly: I think he was worried about himself, so he quickly rushed back after leaving Jing Ningxuan.

Duanmu Lingyu on the side moved his eyes slightly, glanced at Mo Junqing, and snorted coldly in his heart, it seems that what the secret guard said is true, this Mo Junqing is really affectionate to Qingya, but with his own presence, he will never have a chance.

Seeing Mo Junqing walk in, Xia Jingyan's expression moved, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed on his face, shouldn't Mo Junqing be in Jingningxuan? How could it be...... Could it be that Mu Qingya had already sensed her plan? If so, then your wish will come true.

Duanmu Mingli was the first to speak: "I have seen the imperial concubine Niangniang, I have seen the jade concubine Niangniang, I just met the king of Lijun and the king of Chunjun outside the door, thinking that there are some things to discuss with Qingya, so I came over together, but I didn't expect the two Niangniang to be there." ”

Xia Jingyan's heart moved: "Yes, it's a coincidence, I don't know what the princess is doing to find the county lord?" ”

Duanmu Mingli lowered her head slightly, her face flushed with a hint of red, she glanced at Mo Junqing with some embarrassment, took two steps forward and walked to Xia Jingyan's side, her voice was shy: "Niangniang, this ......"

The shy appearance of her daughter's family was fully expressed by her, Xia Jingyan smiled clearly, and joked: "I think it's for your wedding, but some time ago I heard that you asked Qingya for embroidery skills." ”

Duanmu Mingli's eyes rolled: "Niangniang, what's wrong with these slaves?" Yes...... Isn't that Aunt Wenqiu? ”

Seeing Duanmu Mingli's eyes, Shen Ningyu snorted coldly: "It's not these minions, they actually pretended to pass on the orders of the palace and persecuted the palace maids around the palace, I really don't know who gave them the courage!" ”

Xia Jingyan's expression eased: "Yes, this palace didn't expect these minions to be so bold, Concubine Yu, you look at and dispose of them." ”

Shen Ningyu smiled, her face was silent, but she was very mocking in her heart, a group of minions suddenly broke into the palace of a county lord, could it be ended by disposing of these people? actually wanted to let herself carry this burden, Xia Jingyan was really scheming: "Niangniang, how can the concubine interfere in the affairs of the palace beyond the rules, let the emperor know, and definitely blame the concubine for being ignorant." ”

Xia Jingyan's eyes narrowed slightly: "What is this, it was originally a slave of Duyue Xuan, so it is naturally up to my sister to deal with it." ”

Shen Ningyu smiled and turned her head to look at Mu Qingya: "After all, this matter is related to the county lord, what do you think, county lord?" ”

Mu Qingya glanced at Liang Yi, who was kneeling with his head bowed, and an idea rose in her heart: "Jade Concubine Niangniang, this matter seems simple, but if you think about it carefully, there must be someone else involved, I don't believe that this group of slaves has such courage, so let's interrogate it well to know who is so bold and dares to make waves in the harem managed by the imperial concubine." I want to come to the imperial concubine Niangniang also means this, right? ”

Xia Jingyan's face tightened, Mu Qingya was under her banner, she naturally couldn't open her mouth to object, otherwise she might make people suspicious, not to mention that there were two and three princes here.

"What the county lord said makes sense, but if they dare to do such a thing, I am afraid that they will give away their net worth and life, how can they explain it truthfully."

Mu Qingya smiled: "Everyone has rumored that I am a demon girl of the country, I still know some of the methods of interrogating people, if they don't say it, then come to interrogate them one by one, come to someone, pull that slave out and beat him until he tells the truth." The slender fingers moved slightly, and a trembling minion in the corner was pointed out by Mu Qingya.

When the chamberlain at the door heard her words, he immediately went over and pulled the eunuch up.

Xia Jingyan frowned, but finally did not open her mouth to stop it.

However, Mo Junwei said sarcastically in a strange tone: "The county lord is a good method, and he even knows how to interrogate people." ”

The smile on Mu Qingya's face remained unchanged, but she didn't say anything, just looked at the eunuch who was beaten and wailed outside the door, and her heart tightened.

She didn't want to use such a tactic if she could, but the urgency of the situation didn't allow her to back down.

Very, the beaten eunuch fainted.

Mu Qingya's eyes moved, her fingers raised, and she nodded in the center of the group of kneeling minions, and pointed out a person casually again: "...... Yes, it was the minion who dragged him out and continued the interrogation. ”

After a few moments, the minion fainted again.

Mu Qingya was like a broken concoction, and pointed her finger at a minion again: "This time it's better to choose him, if they don't confess again, they will directly kill the person and report to me." ”

With Mu Qingya's movements, the already nervous group of minions trembled more and more, and some of them even cried, constantly kowtowing and begging for mercy, saying that they didn't know anything.

But they paid no heed.

Seeing Mu Qingya's smiling but extremely indifferent appearance, Liang Yi's heart trembled, this time he could not shirk the matter, let alone allow any mistakes, because he had a person in his heart who was unwilling to hurt until death.

"County lord, this matter has nothing to do with others, if the county lord interrogates him, he will interrogate the minions!"

Looking at Liang Yi with firm eyes, Mu Qingya's thoughts in her heart became more and more firm, if you want to see a person's character, the first thing to look at is a person's eyes, although this Liang Yi in front of him seems to have betrayed his master, but his eyes are too upright, no matter how he looks at it, he doesn't look like a treacherous person.

Mu Qingya looked down: "Oh, do you have something to say?" ”

Liang Yi kowtowed a few times again: "Back to the county master, the slave has nothing to say." ”

Mu Qingya frowned, and looked at him with a sharp look in her eyes: "What a bold minion, are you playing tricks on the county lord?" Someone came, and dragged him out to beat him with twenty rods. ”

"Yes."

Hearing Mu Qingya's order, Liang Yi looked up at Mu Qingya, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, this time Xia Jingyan's people found him and forced him to do it, originally he refused to agree, but in the next few days, he found out that others were bribed, and they also poisoned the meal of the Jade Concubine, how could he bear such a thing.

No one knows that his father was originally the imperial doctor in the palace, and he was framed to death because he offended the palace concubine, and he was framed into the palace as a eunuch, if it wasn't for the jade concubine to save him, he would have died long ago, so the jade concubine is the person he is most grateful to, so after investigating that the person who poisoned the jade concubine's meal turned out to be Xia Jingyan, he made up his mind to pull her off the throne of the imperial concubine no matter how much it took!

And to do this, you must not act lightly, so he secretly agreed to Xia Jingyan and wanted to find an opportunity to start, and Mu Qingya, who has been in the limelight recently, is the best candidate, because this county lord is wise and skillful, as far as he knows, Xia Jingyan has not asked for any benefits in her hands, so he has today's action at will.

Liang Yi was pulled out, and the cane fell one by one, and when he hit about ten canes, Mu Qingya suddenly stopped: "Wait a minute, see what falls out of his placket?" ”

Liang Yi looked panicked, and suddenly got up and wanted to pick up the cloth bag that fell on the ground, but was stopped by the eunuch on the side.

Le Qi hurriedly stepped forward and took the cloth bag and handed it to Mu Qingya.

Seeing the fabric used for the cloth bag, Xia Jingyan, who was sure that Liang Yi didn't dare to talk nonsense, suddenly changed his expression, and looked at Liang Yi with his eyes like a knife, how could this kind of cloth get into the hands of this minion.

"This material is very special," Mu Qingya said, opened the cloth bag with her hands, took out a paper bag hidden in it, just smelled it, her expression immediately changed greatly, she stood up suddenly, and put the cloth bag on the table, "Come on, go to see the emperor, just say that someone is guilty of rebellion and wants to poison the royal family." ”
