Not long after, Gu Lengyi was called over, because the person who went to spread Gu Lengyi was a eunuch, and he must have some friendship with Gu Lengyi, so he told Gu Lengyi what happened on the road.

After Gu Lengyi came in, he was furious when he saw the eldest princess he provoked, and he couldn't be afraid in his heart.

She saw Jian Huaizhen with a look of fear on her face, so she knelt down and said to Jian Huaizhen: "The slave knocks on the eldest princess, and the eldest princess is a thousand years old." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled coldly and said: "If this palace can live for a thousand years by now, it will be a joke, what have you done in this harem, hurry up and recruit from the truth, what is the relationship between that little Zhang Zi and you, it is just a matter of pulling people to gamble in the palace, and it is just a matter of cheating other people's silver, cheating other people's silver, and even doing this kind of thing that covers the sky with one hand and forces people to die, don't you know anything about being a master?" ”

Gu Lengyi knelt on the ground, trembling with fright, and said in a loud voice: "The eldest princess of the emperor, the slave really doesn't know at all, the slave has been with the emperor every day since he served the emperor, no matter where the emperor goes, where the slave goes, what the emperor does, the slave will go to do something for the emperor, the slave only has the emperor in his heart wholeheartedly, and he has very little care about other people's affairs, as for this little Zhang Zi, he used to worship the slave as a teacher, and learn the rules of the harem with the slave, but that is also a long time, He may have deliberately used the name of a slave to deceive, and asked the eldest princess to find out. ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard him say this, the anger in her heart disappeared slightly, she nodded and said, "This matter will definitely be investigated by the palace, and someone will pass that little piece to the palace." ”

So someone went to pass the little Zhang Zi over, who knew that the person who went to pass the decree came back not long after coming back and knelt down to Jian Huaizhen, there was a deep look of horror in his eyes, and said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess of the Emperor Qi, that little Zhang Zi has committed suicide in fear of sin." ”

"What suicide in fear of sin?"

Jian Huaizhen's tone was very cold, and he said, "Why did that little Zhang Zi commit suicide in fear of sin? ”

Jian Huaizhen looked at the eunuch as he spoke, and the eunuch hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand and said: "The slave of the eldest princess of Qiqi doesn't know what's going on, the slave just went to pass on Xiao Zhangzi, who knows that Xiao Zhangzi said to the slave that he already knows what happened here, and this matter is his own fault, he knows that if the eldest princess pursues it, he will definitely not be able to get out of it, so it is better to die by himself than to be killed." ”

Jian Huaizhen's gaze fell on the eunuch as if he was covered with snow.

She thought about it for a long, long time, and finally shook her head and said, "That's it, since that little Zhang Zi has committed suicide in fear of sin, this matter will end here!" Wang San Bengong believes in you, but you can't take advantage of the opportunity to buy Heding Red without authorization in the future, do you know? That's a big deal. ”

That Wang San didn't expect things to turn around like this, and Jian Huaizhen was willing to believe him, he quickly knelt down in front of Jian Huaizhen, and said: "Thank you, princess, thank you, princess, the slave will write it down in the future, and I won't dare to do it again." ”

Jian Huaizhen nodded and said, "Okay, you can retreat first." ”

So, the third Wang retreated, and Jian Huaizhen waved his hand again to let Gu Lengyi retreat as well.

Jian Huaizhen turned his face at this time, and said to the only Liu Er: "Liu Er, now you don't have to cheat the palace here, you said that you want to buy Hedinghong because you want to poison people, it means that you are a person who is harmful to people, since you may harm your boss, then why don't you harm Concubine Niangniang?" So this is the case that this is done by you. ”

"Ah, the eldest princess, don't wronged the slave, the slave didn't do this kind of thing, the princess, you have to be clear, if you wronged the slave like this, the slave can't be blind even if he dies, and this matter spreads, people say that the princess has wronged the slave, and the reputation of the princess is not good!"

Jian Huaizhen smiled coldly, she looked at Liu Er and said: "Liu Er, you don't have to quibble now, okay, since you don't admit this matter, forget it, this palace originally thought that if you admit to selling Heding Red to others, this palace will sentence you to fifty plates at most, but now you don't admit it, this palace will count another crime with you, you said that you bought Heding Red to poison your boss, it can be seen that you are really a femme fatale, in this case, this palace must not spare you, come on, Take this Liu Er down and beat him to death. ”

"Yes."

At that moment, a eunuch came forward and wanted to drag Liu Er down, this Liu Er was suddenly frightened, he didn't think why Chen Qi and Cui'er just now explained that it was fornication, they bought medicine to poison Cui'er's big palace maid, and he was also painted according to the gourd, but he had to be executed by Jian Huaizhen.

He cried and crawled to Jian Huaizhen and said: "The eldest princess, you are unfair, it is really unfair, why is it not only wrong for others to poison his boss, but I also do this, but I have to be beaten to death by the eldest princess?" ”

Jian Huaizhen said to him: "Okay, since you want to ask, then the palace will explain the matter clearly to you, the reason why the palace wants to beat you to death is for two reasons, first, just now, that Cui'er and Chen Qi did say that they bought Hedinghong to poison the big palace maid in Cui'er's imperial dining room, but the reason why they did this was because the big palace maid did something to Cui'er that made Cui'er unbearable, it was she who persecuted Cui'er, and Cui'er just rose up to resist, so the palace can forgive her; Second, the reason why they do this is because they are oppressed, and the reason why you do this is only because you are dissatisfied with your boss Liu Gonggong, it can be seen that you are a person with evil intentions, if you are dissatisfied with others, you can casually poison others, what's the point of keeping people like you, okay, even if you want to say that the palace doesn't want to hear you now, come on, drag him down and beat him to death, and find out his three clans, Zhulian three clans. ”

"Yes."

The eunuchs hurriedly dragged Liu Er out, and when Liu Er saw this, his heart was suddenly frightened like frost, he carefully recalled Jian Huaizhen's words, and remembered that Jian Huaizhen said that if he could summon the truth, then he could also let him go, and if he didn't summon the truth, but Jian Huaizhen meant to beat him to death, he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart. ”

At this time, the eunuchs had already dragged him outside to the courtyard and fought hard, and Liu Er's voice was close to each other, howling like killing a pig.

Jian Huaizhen heard of it, and the two queen mothers of the two palaces changed their faces, although the Empress Dowager Zhou has always been very poisonous, beating and killing people as commonplace, but she thought that Jian Huaizhen's reason for killing people was not sufficient, and the Empress Dowager Qian has always believed in Buddhism, and she believes in the compassion of my Buddha.

Therefore, when she saw Jian Huaizhen killing this person with a cane, she still felt very pity in her heart, so she said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess, Liu Er, is indeed evil, and she actually got along with this way to do bad things, but after all, his bad deeds have not been done, so the eldest princess might as well let him go once, right?" ”

Jian Huaizhen shook his head and said, "Let's wait for the following." ”

Sure enough, after less than a pillar of incense, Liu Er couldn't hold it anymore, and he shouted loudly outside: "I am willing to recruit the eldest princess, I am willing to recruit the truth, don't beat me again, if you beat me again, you will kill me." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly, and said to the eunuch, "Okay, you go out and tell them to stop beating Liu Er and bring him in." ”

"Yes."

That Liu Er was brought in again, and at this moment, his ass had already bloomed, and the flesh and blood between his legs were blurred, looking very terrifying.

That Liu Er crawled on the ground and looked at Jian Huaizhen, his forehead was full of beads of sweat, and he said for a long time: "The eldest princess, I am willing to confess the truth, are you willing to let me go, and do you want to connect my three clans?" ”

Jian Huaizhen nodded slightly and said: "This palace will do what it says, but if you tell a lie, this palace will definitely be able to find out, and then it will not be as simple as killing you and the three clans of Zhulian with a cane." ”

Liu Er nodded his head in fright like a chicken pecking rice, and said, "Aren't you afraid of the dark when you see ghosts?" I've been beaten like this, how dare I talk nonsense! ”

He told Jian Huaizhen what he knew, and he said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess of the Emperor Qiqi, the crane top red was indeed asked by someone to buy it from outside the palace, because I was afraid that the amount of the purchase was not enough, so I bought more, but I didn't expect that it would not be used in the end, so there was some of these crane top red left, I put it in the palace, I didn't expect it to be turned out, and now I don't dare to tell the truth, it was the queen in the palace Mu Xue girl asked me to buy it, and she also gave me a hundred taels of silver." ”

That Mu Xue and Queen Wang were originally standing on the side and listening, hearing Liu Er say this, Mu Xue's face suddenly changed greatly, she pointed at Liu Er and accused him loudly, and said: "You lie, you lie, there is no such thing at all, when did I ask you to buy Heding Red, you must have been bribed by the concubine Niangniang, so you came to wronged me, what the Empress Dowager Qiyu said was a lie......"

Jian Huaizhen got up and said angrily: "Where is Mu Xue talking now, does this palace let you speak?" ”

Mu Xue saw that Jian Huaizhen was furious, so she stopped a little.

Jian Huaizhen's face was like sinking water, and she said quietly: "What else do you have to say about the queen and queen so far?" ”

Jian Huaizhen's eyes were full of insight into everything, Queen Wang knew that the general trend had gone now, she originally wanted to murder Wan Zhen'er wholeheartedly, but she didn't expect that she would put herself in it now.

She was about to say something, but Mu Xue had already preemptively said: "The eldest princess, you are unfair, why do you have to say that this matter was done by our queen Wang?" Could it be that what Liu Er said is the truth, and Liu Er won't talk nonsense? “

Jian Huaizhen smiled coldly and said: "It's not that Liu Er can't tell lies, it's just that Liu Er definitely won't tell lies in this situation, Liu Er has been beaten to the flesh and blood, if he lies again, then he is a god." ”

Jian Huaizhen said as she gently brushed her long hair with her hand, her nails were faintly kotan-colored, and her black and shiny hair was printed, with a strange fairy luster.

She said quietly: "Don't you still admit it to the queen now? ”

Queen Wang stared at Jian Huaizhen and slowly pursed her lips, she said: "The eldest princess is good, what you said is true, originally I planned this matter seamlessly, but I didn't expect it to be found out by you, since you already know the truth of the matter, then I have nothing to say." ”

Jian Huaizhen sighed and didn't speak for a long time, and after listening to it, Empress Dowager Zhou couldn't help but point to the queen and said: "How the queen treats you, you don't know why you would do such a thing, you are really disappointed in this palace." ”

The corners of Queen Wang's eyes were slightly moist, and she said: "The Queen Mother actually doesn't have to do this for me, but the Queen Mother is also a person in this harem, doesn't the Queen Mother understand the things in the harem?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhou looked at Queen Wang, she was very angry at what Queen Wang said, and her face turned blue even more.

She sighed and pointed at Queen Wang and said solemnly: "Now you still have to blame the mourning family for this matter, you are really incorrigible." ”

"Yes, it's incorrigible, but the Queen Mother is not wrong, everyone in this harem is deceitful and intrigued, I never provoked anyone before, but my child was so lost, I tried my best to do what I could, I tried my best to be a good wife of the emperor, a good daughter-in-law of the Queen Mother, but in the end what happened, my child was killed, but the Queen Mother and the emperor refused to investigate, I could only watch my child die, and I was in grief, What did the Queen Mother and the Emperor do to me, the Queen Mother and the Emperor were angry with me because of this, I didn't expect that I would be able to survive. ”

The queen changed slightly, stopped talking, and didn't say a word for a long time. The queen continued: "And at this time, Wan Zhen'er came to me, I don't know what kind of person Wan Zhen'er is, I don't want to be with her, but she has a way to let me gain the trust of the queen mother and the emperor's favor, and I have to connect her in order to take revenge, and I am not all for revenge, because I know that if I don't have one to rely on in this harem, then I will definitely die a miserable death. ”

She pointed at Wan Zhen'er as she spoke, with a sharp look in her eyes.

"It was Wan Zhen'er who taught me how to plan for others, and it was Wan Zhen'er who taught me how to gain the trust of others."

There was a storm in her eyes.

continued: "It was Wan Zhen'er who taught me, Wan Zhen'er told me that she wanted to join forces with me to deal with Tang Jingran, and I was very resentful of Tang Jingran, but Tang Zhenran that person, I don't think she is like she is full of scheming, or she is deeply hidden, and it is as abnormal for me to deal with Tang Jingran, but it is very difficult to deal with Wan Zhen'er." ”

She was so cruel that she shook everything out.

"So before Wan Zhen'er wants to deal with me, the only thing I have to do is to strike first, and then suffer, and Wan Zhen'er didn't guard against me before I wronged her, otherwise, when the two of us deal with Tang Jingran, wait until later, and then wait for Wan Zhen'er to deal with me, then I won't die without a place to bury."

All the words of Queen Wang were completed in one go, as if she had been aggrieved in her heart for a long time, Wan Zhen'er heard her say this, and her face suddenly turned pale.

She suppressed the anger in her heart and said to her, "What is the use of you talking about this now, the queen and queen? When did Zhen'er ask you and Zhen'er to deal with Concubine Tang Shu? Zhen'er just looked at Queen Wang, you are pitiful, so she came to comfort Queen Wang, but she didn't expect Queen Wang to know well-wishers, she thought about it, but she had to push these blames on Zhen'er. ”

Queen Wang's face became very pale, like paper, she pointed to Wan Zhen'er for a long time before saying: "Wan Zhen'er, you are really a great person, Queen Wu was buried in your hands, I didn't expect that this palace would still be buried in your hands, the emperor's two queens died in your hands one after another, Wan Zhen'er, you are really a great person!" ”

When she had finished speaking, she took a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed herself in the neck.

Mu Xue shouted loudly on the side: "The queen doesn't want it!" ”

It turned out that although the queen thought that her plan was very perfect and foolproof, she was still ready to be exposed, and she knew that there must be no good end for her after the matter was revealed, so instead of waiting for the humiliation of others, it was better to commit suicide and die, but she could also end up with a whole corpse.

If the royal family refuses to make this matter public because of the majesty of the royal family, then her family may be able to keep it, if she is still alive, as her power weakens, her family will also decline because of this, if she is convicted for this, then her family will not be able to keep it, so she came up with this method.

Seeing that the dagger was about to reach her snow-white neck, Jian Huaizhen suddenly made a move and threw out a plum blossom needle as thin as a cow's hair from his hand, and the plum blossom needle hit the dagger.

The thin and short plum blossom needle was much more powerful than the dagger, and it actually hit the dagger on the ground, and the dagger snapped, and the queen was stunned.

Jian Huaizhen's expression was calm, her eyes lingered on the queen's body, and she said in a loud voice: "In this harem, everyone is indeed deceitful and scheming, but if everyone else does this and you can clean yourself, you will not end up here in any case, and if you die because of this, it is indeed not worth it." ”

After finishing speaking, she looked at Queen Wang, her amber eyes showed a warm luster, and slowly asked the Empress Dowager Zhou: "What do you say should be done now that the Empress Dowager Zhou has happened?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhou didn't expect Jian Huaizhen to suddenly ask her, her heart was like there were thousands of troops at this moment, she only felt sad and desolate.

Because the Empress Dowager Zhou still loves Queen Wang very much, she does come to see Queen Wang as a nephew, but no Queen Wang actually did such a thing.
