Baili Qingcang looked at Qi Guifei, and secretly thought in his heart: Qi Guifei really has no reason to do this, she is in charge of the details of this banquet, if it is very easy to do something, why should she instruct the palace maid in her palace to do such a thing? Moreover, he still understands Qi Guifei's temperament, even if the second prince is her biological son, she has not participated in the battle between the princes.

"Bold palace maid, in front of me, do you dare to bite at will?"

The palace maid Qingyu gritted her teeth stubbornly, and her tone was extremely sharp: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid did not bite, it was Qi Guifei who instructed the slave and maid to do this, it was she, she handed over the hairpin to the slave maid, and said that as long as the slave and maid helped her finish this matter, the slave and maid would be released from the palace to reunite with her lover." ”

"Lover?" Baili Qingcang's eyes lit up, and he keenly grasped the key point in her words.

Qingyu's face turned pale, as if he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and then let Baili Junyi ask without opening his mouth.

Baili Qingcang became more and more annoyed: "Don't you say it, do you think that if you don't say it, I won't be able to investigate?" If you confess honestly, I will kill you alone, and if you don't confess honestly, I will not let go of your family and lovers! ”

"No, Your Majesty, all this is done by the slave and maid themselves, and it has nothing to do with the slave's family and lover, if you want to kill the slave and maid, kill the slave and maid alone!"

Hearing the fear in the palace maid's words, Baili Qingcang's voice became more and more cold: "Do you think you can decide on my behalf?" Or do you think that the master behind you will be able to save your family and lover in the face of my wrath? ”

"Your Majesty...... No, Your Majesty, everything is the slave's fault! Qingyu's face was full of panic, and he looked at Baili Qingcang and pleaded.

"Speak out to those who instructed you, and I will spare the lives of your family and loved ones, or if not, I will put you to death!" When you go underground, you can always explain to them why they died! ”

Qingyu couldn't help but look at the three princes and Li Guifei on the seat: "Li Guifei Niangniang, you say something, can you help the slave and maid say something?" ”

Concubine Li's face was embarrassed, and her face turned her head when she heard this: "I don't know you in this palace, why do I want to help you speak?" ”

"Concubine Li, you can't do this, it was you who said that you would give the slave and maid glory and wealth, and also help the slave and maid out of the palace, and the slave and maid agreed, and now that the matter is revealed, you can't help but admit it."

"Presumptuous, this palace has been grounded in his palace before, when did he have contact with you?" At this time, she didn't care about her face, and directly said the words of grounding.

"It's clearly the slave you bought, you can't use it and don't care if the slave lives or dies!"

"Shut up, don't spew blood here!" Concubine Li got up and knelt down for hundreds of miles and reluctantly, "Your Majesty, the concubines don't have any manpower in the palace, you know, and this slave maid first bit Sister Qi Guifei, and then came to bite the concubine, such a bold palace maid is the first time I have seen it, please call the shots." She hinted that the people she had planted had already been killed before, so she had no ability to plan this matter at all.

Hearing Concubine Li's words, a trace of despair flashed in Qingyu's eyes: "Concubine Li, since you are ruthless, don't blame the slave and maid for being unjust, the emperor, the slave and the maid are willing to confess, the hosta and the crane top red are given to the slave by the concubine, and she also promised that once the matter is completed, she will definitely give the slave and maid a thousand taels of silver, and then send the slave and maid out of the palace. ”

Concubine Li's face turned pale: "Your Majesty, there is no evidence, don't believe what this cheap maid said." ”

"Your Majesty, there is evidence in the slave maid's hand, the slave maid is the eyeliner that Li Guifei placed in the palace of Qi Guifei Niangniang, as early as three years ago, she obeyed Li Guifei's assignment, but Li Guifei basically did not use the slave maid, the slave and maid hid it very well, and only escaped last time, but Li Guifei gave the slave and maid gold, silver and jewelry as a reward every year, and the slave and maid were very careful to collect it, and it has not been exposed. Originally, Concubine Li was afraid that she would not use the slave maid this time, but unfortunately the last time there was an accident in the palace, her manpower was too badly damaged, so the slave maid came forward, and the slave and maid recorded all the things that Li Guifei rewarded on a small piece of paper and hid them in the gap between the bricks under the slave's bed. ”

Concubine Li was cold all over her body, and now she finally understands that she has been used! She stared at Qi Guifei deadly, eager to bite off a piece of meat on her, it was her, she framed herself!

Qi Guifei frowned slightly, with a trace of sadness and worry on her face, as if she didn't believe that Concubine Li was so ruthless, but she sneered in her heart: Last time, Concubine Li bought the big palace maid next to her, attracting Baili Jinchuan into the palace, and almost fell into the trap of the Lin family and the third prince, this time, she just planned and returned a tooth for a tooth.

Shen Ninghua was silent on the side, her fingers gently stroked her stomach, and her heart suddenly dawned: That Qingyu looked like the person who was Concubine Li, but in fact he had been secretly bought by Concubine Qi, so there was a good show of biting today, and this time Concubine Li was afraid that it would be difficult to turn over.

Concubine Li panicked: "Your Majesty, it's not like this, it's not like this, the concubine has always instructed the palace maid to do things, besides, what is the benefit of poisoning the waiter of the Ministry of Rites to the concubine?" ”

Baili Junyi helped Shen Ninghua sit down, and then spoke: "Killing the waiter of the Ministry of Rites naturally wanted to blame me, just as soon as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites died, the third emperor brother said that I killed people and killed my mouth, and also used my life experience as an excuse, saying that I deliberately took revenge on the emperor and murdered my father, I am strange, he is a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, a small official from the third grade, and inadvertently discovered my life experience, and inadvertently heard that I was going to rebel, how could his luck be so good, so many people didn't find out, he inadvertently found out." ”

Concubine Li turned her head suddenly: "His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince said carefully, the Third Prince is just guessing, how can you take it seriously?" ”

"I guessed just now, don't take it seriously when you concubine." Baili Jun smiled cynically, "I just watched the Third Emperor Brother guess for a long time, I will also guess with the crowd, don't mind." ”

"You ......" Concubine Li was so blocked that her chest was stuffy, and tears fell down, "Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged." ”

Baili Qingcang stared at Concubine Li deadly, disappointed in her heart, and felt that it was really a shame to make such a farce in front of the civil and military officials, and she became more and more disgusted with her: "Shut up!" What does it look like to be noisy and yelling! ”

Concubine Li's heart sank, and the emperor seemed to be completely tired of her......

Baili Qingcang looked at the palace maid Qingyu on the ground: "Escort her down and interrogate her well, I will definitely investigate this matter." Alright, let's all go back to our seats. After speaking, his eyes swept the hall around, and finally fell on the third prince, and he snorted coldly.

The third prince's face turned pale, and his heart became more and more flustered: What does the father and emperor mean, did he find something? Thinking about it like this, I was so panicked that I could barely sit still, and my fingers holding the wine glass were trembling.

At this time, Bu Yonghan stood up and looked quite uneasy: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault that I was so troublesome for a while, and I actually caused such a big trouble, and I asked the emperor to punish him." ”

"I don't blame you, this matter was planned by someone with a heart, and it has nothing to do with you, even if it is not you, it will be involved by other words, sit down."

"Your Majesty, Yonghan is extremely envious of the five princes' deep affection for Princess Zhaohua, but he also knows that he can't get involved in them, and he doesn't want to affect their feelings, however, Yonghan believes that your princes are all excellent, so can you ask the emperor to marry Yonghan, and from then on, Da'an and Dayue will always marry Qin and Jin?"

Hearing this, the wrinkles in the center of his eyebrows suddenly relaxed: just now Concubine Li made a fuss, he was still full of anger, if he took this opportunity to clean up Concubine Lin and the Lin family, Lin Feiyuan's position would be embarrassing, and the marriage with Dayue Kingdom would be meaningless, if he let Concubine Li go like this, he would feel very uncomfortable, if Bu Yonghan married like a royal family, then the matter is another matter, her role is much stronger than Lin Feiyuan.

Concubine Li's face turned pale suddenly, her heartbeat blanked a few beats, and her cruel gaze fell on Bu Yonghan: What is she doing? Give the emperor support and let him abolish himself? What's in it for her?

Baili Qingcang couldn't help but look at his sons, Bu Yonghan is a powerful helper, logically speaking, it is the most suitable for the fifth child, saying that he is a cousin, but the relationship is very far away and can be married, but he has a deep affection for Shen Ninghua, and he doesn't even want a concubine, and the princess won't want it, and he can't give it to the prince, so as not to fuel his arrogance. He wants to clean up Concubine Li and the Lin family, and if the third and fourth children are not considered, then it can only be the second prince Baili Jinchuan.

"Jinchuan, you have been in the position of the king of the county for a while, and it is time to rise to the position of the prince, so that the second prince Baili Jinchuan will give Prince Fengde."

Baili Jinchuan was stunned, then stood up as usual, and respectfully thanked him: "Son-in-law thanks Father Emperor Longen." ”

"Well, get up, Yonghan, your marriage is not in a hurry, today is the send-off banquet of your sixth emperor brother, don't steal the limelight."

Baili Qingcang didn't say it explicitly, but the people below understood it in their hearts, and mentioned the title of the second prince and prince, isn't this just to prepare him for marrying the princess? said that he was not in a hurry and did not give in Yonghan to steal the limelight, but in fact, he gave people a hint that the concubine family of the future second prince would prepare and find an excuse to give up the position.

Thinking about it, everyone couldn't help but look at General Ning Yuan who was sitting on the side of the banquet with sympathy, his family's concubine was the future second princess......

Concubine Li's face changed completely, she only felt that it was dark in front of her, it was over, she was finished, no wonder Bu Yonghan wanted to speak at this time, she had not married the second prince yet, so she helped him eradicate dissidents in advance, without her own support, the threat of the third prince and the fourth prince was greatly weakened, and she made such a contribution before entering the door, and the second prince would definitely treat her well. Don't say anything about marrying a princess from another country, you can't inherit the throne, and when the time comes, find a reason to change her position into a side concubine, and re-seal a young lady from a family as a concubine.
