Gao Zhaorong is no longer in the Shuangming Palace, how can Chuntong, a little palace maid, have such a big courage, what can she do to contact the Southern Dynasty privately? Feng Miao always felt that this matter was a little strange, and whispered to Su Wen, "Don't worry about it yet, there is a punishment center in the palace, and there are also Yulin guards on duty, just leave it to them to deal with."

"Niangniang," Su Wen said worriedly, "I'm afraid this trouble is coming to you, Xiao Shunzi, who was on duty at the door just now, said that Chuntong was making a big noise, and the matter had alarmed the second prince, and the Yulin guards outside were asking Niangniang to go out to confront him." ”

Knowing that it was useless to dodge, Feng Miao got up in her clothes, unhurriedly pulled her hair in a bun, and used a plain silver hairpin to make it, so that Su Wen went to call the people outside in.

Most of the original Yulin guards have been transferred to the army, and most of the people who remain in the Luoyang Palace are selected by Yuan Hong later, including Xianbei nobles and Hanchen's children. Feng Miao swept around, and saw that all the people who came in were young men with faces, so she didn't speak, waiting for them to explain their intentions first.

The leader was the new general of the palace, and Feng Miao vaguely remembered that he seemed to be a son of the Buliu Gu clan, and now he had changed his surname to the Lu clan. The General Lu knelt down on one knee and saluted Feng Miao and briefly explained the matter. When the Yulin guards were patrolling the palace, they found Chuntong walking on the path in the palace with her head and face covered, and when they interrogated her, they felt that her words were flickering and very suspicious, and they searched her body and found a letter sent from the Southern Dynasty.

Feng Miao frowned slightly when she heard this, Chuntong's actions didn't look like he was going to send a letter, but as if he was deliberately being caught. She raised her hand to cover her lips and made a tired face, "Since the person has been caught, how should I interrogate and deal with it, you can just do it yourself, what are you arguing about here in this palace?" ”

After all, General Lu is a military general, and he is from a noble background, unlike palace maids and eunuchs, who know how to observe words and feelings, and hugged his fist to Feng Miao and said, "Originally, I didn't want to disturb the mother's rest, but the palace maid who caught her kept crying and making a fuss, and then she was tortured, so she said...... This letter is addressed to Zhaoyi Niangniang. ”

Hearing this, Feng Miao was not surprised at all, she had expected Chuntong's actions to be arranged by Gao Zhaorong, but she didn't know if she had laid out this game earlier, or if she could still pass the news to Chuntong after being sent to the small Buddha Hall. Feng Miao held the teacup on the table and knocked it hard, and asked rhetorically, "The palace maid of the Shuangming Palace, even if the palace wants to support it, it may not be able to support it, right?" ”

"What Niangniang said is," the look of General Xiao Lu was a little embarrassed, "The stakes are very high, and the last general will not dare to deal with it at will, the person has been brought to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and several old princes have also been invited into the palace overnight, and they also asked Niangniang to move, as long as they make it clear." ”

Feng Miao nodded and agreed, "This palace has not done anything wrong, I can go with you." ”

Su Wen stepped forward with a cloak trimmed with a spring pattern brocade in the four seas, draped it on Feng Miao's body, and whispered, "The situation doesn't look very good, the slave maid should go with you, stay here, in case she can't come back before dawn, she can find a way to find someone to report to the emperor." ”

This is the most appropriate arrangement at the moment, Feng Miao nodded approvingly. Su Wen was originally older than her, and she had always been calm and thoughtful, but Feng Miao felt more and more that Su Wen was very familiar with the way to deal with people in the palace, and in the face of this situation, he could still arrange it calmly, even if he had been on an errand in the palace for many years, he might not be able to do it. But she didn't have time to think carefully about Su Wen's life experience, so she only tightened her cloak with her hands and walked out with the Yulin guards.

After Yuan Hong left the palace, the second prince Yuan Ke moved out of the Hualin Annex and lived in the Yongtai Hall near the Chengyang Palace, where he supervised the administration of the country every day.

It was raining outside the hall, Feng Miao was still Zuo Zhaoyi after all, and the Yulin guards didn't dare to slack off, and they had already passed the soft sedan chair and sent her to Yongtai Palace.

As soon as Yuan Ke saw her come in, he got up from his seat, walked quickly to her, and called out "Concubine Feng". Among the princes on the side, some people already laughed contemptuously, "Is the scourge of treason and collaboration with the enemy worthy of the emperor's concubine?" ”

Feng Miao followed the voice and looked, the person who spoke was also one of the people who supported Prince Yuansui. These clan princes only dared to be so unscrupulous because they looked at Yuan Ke's youth. If Yuan Hong was here, they would not dare to be so presumptuous. Just as he was about to open his mouth to refute, Yuan Ke was already in a hurry and said, "Lone was once raised and taught by Concubine Feng in the Huayin Palace, and it is natural to call Mother Concubine a concubine. Not to mention that this matter has not yet been decided, even if it really has anything to do with Concubine Feng, can a son not admit it because his mother is at fault? ”

In one sentence, the princes were speechless, compared to the crown prince Yuan Sui, Yuan Ke's words and deeds have the demeanor of a prince. The way he spoke was very similar to Yuan Hong's eloquent demeanor in Zhixue back then, Feng Miao saw it and felt very relieved. No matter how unbearable Gao Zhaorong was, she did not regret saving this child back then.

Yuan Ke asked someone to bring a smaller Hu bed and asked Feng Miao to sit down, then he turned to Chuntong and asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Chuntong knelt on the ground, looking embarrassed, his clothes had traces of being whipped, his hands and ten fingers were hanging softly, and there were still coagulated blood stains on his knuckles, obviously having been tortured. She walked a few steps to Feng Miao on her knees, and kowtowed her head heavily, "Niangniang, please save the slave!" Save the slaves! ”

Feng Miao avoided her bloodstained hands and looked at her coldly. By this time, Feng Miao was completely convinced that she was falling into a trap set by someone step by step.

"Niangniang," Chuntong looked up at Feng Miao, the horror in her eyes was extremely realistic, "You can't ignore the slave!" You said it, as long as the slave and maid are obedient, the slave's father and nephew will be safe and sound. Mother-slaves and maids do as you tell me......"

Dongyang Wang Yuanpi is not in Luoyang, and among the princes, he is the highest ranking of Rencheng Wang Yuancheng, and everyone else has their eyes on Rencheng Wang. Someone whispered, urging King Ren Cheng to make a decision. King Ren Cheng has always had a clear distinction between public and private, and handled things fairly, although his son had some friendship with Feng Miao, he would never be partial because of this.

Feng Miao knew that she could only solve the dilemma in front of her on her own tonight. She ignored Chuntong, who was crying and pleading, and asked directly to Yuan Ke, "This palace wants to ask, what is written on the letter that was searched?" ”

Yuan Ke picked up a thin piece of paper from the table and asked the eunuch beside him to read it to Feng Miao.

In fact, the content of the letter was very ambiguous, there was neither a title nor a signature, and only words such as "you" and "I" were used in every sentence, and there was no word representing identity. Judging from the content of the letter, the recipient had repeatedly contacted the Southern Dynasty and told the Southern Dynasty about the promotion of officials in Luoyang City, the harvest of grain and grass, etc., and even Yuan Hong left the palace to visit the monks in Songshan. The person who wrote the letter also said that the Emperor of Great Wei was not in the palace, and it was a good time for the army of the Southern Dynasty to attack, and the person who received the letter should carefully investigate how long the Great Wei Emperor would leave and when he would return to the palace.

This letter alone is indeed enough to convict a person of treason and collaboration with the enemy.

Feng Miao was thinking about how to clear himself of suspicion, and the little eunuch had already read the last sentence, "You mentioned last time that if you want to wash off the hibiscus tattoo on your body, you might as well try to scrub it with big blood vine, angelica, salvia, and safflower decoction water, maybe it will have an effect." ”

There was silence in the Yongtai Palace, and many of the princes of the clan present had heard the contents of the letter in its entirety for the first time. Feng Miao clenched her fingers under her sleeves, Gao Zhaorong was really a good strategy, she herself contacted the Southern Dynasty, but she wanted to plant the blame on others.

King Ren Cheng said to Yuan Ke, "Your Highness, the hibiscus tattoo mentioned in the letter is the only evidence now, as long as you can find out the person with this kind of tattoo on your body, you can naturally know whether Feng Zhaoyi is innocent." ”

Yuan Ke is a half-old child after all, and what King Ren Cheng said makes sense, so he can't think of any reason to refute it. He looked at Feng Miao a little shyly and said, "Mother Feng, I'm afraid I have to wronged you to let the old lady come and see, and the son believes that after the old lady sees it, she will definitely be able to return your innocence." ”

Feng Miao clearly knew that she had a hibiscus flower tattooed on her chest, and if she asked the old lady to come and see it, she would only sit on Chuntong's slander. She sneered and said, "This palace is a good Zhaoyi, just a few words from the palace maid, I have to call someone to check the body of this palace, is this humiliating the palace, or humiliating the emperor?" ”

"Zhaoyi Niangniang, you can't say that," someone among the princes spoke, "If Niangniang is confident and innocent, she can clear her suspicion by asking the old lady to come and see." Zhaoyi Niangniang shirked it like this, could it be that there was a ghost in her heart? ”

Rencheng Wang Yuancheng also opened his mouth, "Feng Zhaoyi, this matter involves the Southern Dynasty, it is too important, or wronged Feng Zhaoyi to let the grandmother in the palace come and take a look." If it is proved that Zhaoyi really has nothing to do with this matter, the old minister is willing to apologize to Feng Zhaoyi in person. ”

Even the king of the city said so, it seems that tonight's physical examination can't be avoided. Feng Miao twisted the tassels on the cloak with her hand, and said slowly, "This palace maid said that the letter was for the palace, but the palace said no, is the words of the palace not as credible as the words of a palace maid?" The letter was found in the palace, and since it is to be tested, then all the concubines in the harem should be invited to come and check it together, so that it is fair, and it will not gossip about people with ulterior motives. ”

This request is not excessive, Yuan Ke asked the eunuch and Yulin guards to go separately to invite people, and it didn't take long for the concubines of the palace to come, and even Li Rongyu, who has rarely appeared in front of people, was invited by the little eunuch, and everyone had a tired look on their faces, and the corners of their clothes and the tips of their hair were wet with moisture.

Several old ladies who taught palace maids and concubines were also brought in, standing aside with their heads bowed and waiting.

Yuan Ke faced such a situation for the first time, and all the elders who came, it was inevitable that he was a little nervous, so he asked the little eunuch to invite all the concubines into the side hall, and then asked the old grandmother to check them one by one.

"Wait a minute," Feng Miao stood up and said to everyone, "There is still one person who has not come, since it is to clear suspicion, then it should be treated equally, and no one can be missed." She instructed the Yulin guard at the door, "Go to the small Buddha hall and invite the noble concubine to come here too." ”
