Chapter 44: Behind the Scenes
The poisoning of the talented Bai family Bai Xing has set off a lot of waves in the harem, since Xu Jieyu and Xu Yao hanged themselves, in just one month, four concubines died, including three talented people - Wu Zhilei, Dai Yanshan, and Bai Xing.
Xu Jieyu and Wu Cairen are okay to say, one hanged himself, and the other was given to die, but Dai Cairen accidentally fell off the rockery and died, Bai Cairen was poisoned to death, this kind of abnormal death still caused a little wave in the palace, especially the concubines who entered the palace this year, it was the first time to feel the horror of this harem.
The matter of Bai Cairen's poisoning naturally needs to be investigated, so as not to cause more speculation and uneasiness to everyone.
In the end, it was found out that it was Bai Cairen's personal palace maid Liu Dan who poisoned Bai Cairen, the reason was because although Bai Cairen reused her, she also beat and scolded her, so Liu Dan was resentful, and originally just wanted to teach Bai Cairen a lesson, so she got strychnine from outside the palace, but she didn't expect that she didn't understand pharmacology, so the amount was too much, which led to Bai Cairen's death.
The final result was naturally that Liudan was given death.
Li Ling did not pursue Liudan's family, and Bai Xing was born as a palace maid, and there were no relatives outside the palace, and her only sister Bai Le had already died, and there were no particularly good sisters in the palace, so no one jumped out to say that she wanted to pursue Liudan's family.
Therefore, Bai Cairen's death ended with the palace maid Liudan being given death.
August 28 is the first seven of the white talents.
In the Dark Fragrance Pavilion, there were only Li Ling and Meng Meiren, and their personal palace maids were guarding outside.
"This palace wants to congratulate Meng Meiren." Li Ling took a shallow sip of tea, and then looked at Meng Meiren, who was a little uneasy.
"The concubine doesn't understand what the mother means." Meng Meiren's face was a little ugly, today was the first seven of Bai Xing's slut, and she didn't understand what Concubine Xian was doing when she called her to this Dark Fragrance Pavilion.
"Liudan is dead, and Meng Meiren will have no handle from now on, shouldn't she be congratulated?" Li Ling smiled lightly, but the words she said could make Meng Meiren feel cold all over her body.
When Meng Meiren heard Liling's words, her whole person stiffened for a moment, but then she covered up the past.
"What kind of handle is not the handle, besides, what does that Liudan have to do with the concubine." Meng Meiren pressed her shocked and frightened heart, and squeezed out a smile that was not very good-looking.
"Meng Meiren, don't worry, this palace is not here to ask about the guilt, otherwise, it wouldn't be here," Li Ling smiled again, she seemed to be a little smiling recently, "Speaking of which, this palace also wants to thank you, Bai Cairen and this palace's festival is not small." ”
Originally, when Pear Ling said Liudan, Meng Meiren was already a little frightened, but at this time, Li Ling directly said Bai Cairen, Meng Meiren only felt that her hands were trembling, what else did Concubine Xian know? ! Or does Concubine Xian know everything? And what about her......
"Please also ask the mother to speak clearly." Since Concubine Xian called her here, what she should know and what she shouldn't know, Concubine Xian already knows, since this is the case, she has nothing to say, and it depends on what Concubine Xian wants to do.
"You are a smart person, that's why Bengong didn't lead you out along the Liudan, because you didn't have any trouble with Bengong." Li Ling was very happy with Meng Meiren's knowledge.
Meng Meiren was silent, she knew the meaning of Li's words, because she had not done anything to Concubine Xian, and Bai Xing was also a person that Concubine Xian didn't like, so for her letting Liudan poison Bai Cairen, Concubine Xian chose to ignore it, and only disposed of a Liudan to block Youyou's mouth.
Concubine Xian is warning her, warning her not to do anything to Concubine Xian, otherwise these things will become her handle, although Liudan is dead, but she knows that there must be other evidence in Concubine Xian's hands.
"The concubine is willing to be sent by the mother." With all that said, Meng Meiren knew what to do.
"There is no need to be sent, this palace knows that you are a talented woman with a high heart and arrogance, and you will definitely not be willing to be sent by this palace, such an unwilling will not be beautiful for you to have resentment in the future," Li Ling said this, seeing that Meng Meiren's face softened a lot, and then said: "This palace knows that you are a really smart person, and your family background is not bad, if you were not framed by Bai Xing, you must be a Zhaoyi and Zhaorong by now." ”
Hearing what Li Ling said, Meng Meiren's eyes darkened, she was favored as soon as she entered the palace, from Jieyu all the way to Xiuyuan, and she was once proud, but then she was first harmed by Bai Cai and Xin Xiuyi and could no longer get pregnant, and then she was harmed by Bai Cairen and was demoted to a talented person, if it weren't for these two things, she would definitely have given birth to a child now, at least she is also the lord of the first palace! It's not like now, just a little beauty, and she can't even compare to the position she just entered the palace!
"Niangniang laughed, Shui Qi is just a little beauty, not worthy of being praised by Niangniang."
"This palace looks at you as a good one, after all, except for Bai Xing, you haven't done anything to anyone, so I don't care about you this time, you can do it yourself!" With that, Pear Ling took the last sip of tea and got up to leave the Dark Fragrance Pavilion.
Only Meng Meiren was sitting in the same place, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Niangniang, what are you ......" Don't talk about Meng Meiren, even people like Zhihe who know Liyu don't know what Concubine Xian means at this time.
At the very beginning, Li Ling sent someone to provoke Meng Meiren, telling Meng Meiren that Bai Cairen might have found out that she had a miscarriage at the beginning, Bai Cairen has always been ruthless, and when the time comes, she will definitely take revenge on her, let her strike first, besides, only the dead are the most reliable in this world, as long as Liu Dan is in this world for a day, it is not a secret that Bai Cairen had a miscarriage at the beginning, in case Liu Dan turns to Bai Cairen one day, then she will be finished.
In this way, Meng Meiren had the idea of getting rid of Bai Cairen first, and then letting Liudan be a substitute for the dead ghost.
But today, why did Concubine Xian call Meng Meiren out, and then tell Meng Meiren clearly that she knew about it? Besides, Concubine Xian doesn't seem to be threatening Meng Meiren with this matter, and let Meng Meiren do things for Concubine Xian! What is Concubine Xian doing today? It can't really be just a simple way to tell Meng Meiren: I have your handle, right?
For a while, Zhihe and Lianyu were puzzled.
Pear Ling smiled silently, and only said to the second maid: "Let's wait and see!" ”
At the end, leaving a mysterious smile left Zhihe and Lianyu puzzled.
Meng Meiren is a rare and clear-headed person in this palace, there has never been any unrealistic delusions, and he is not the kind of person who will do anything to achieve his goal, it is rare, but after experiencing these ups and downs, his personality sometimes becomes a little paranoid, so he gradually became not favored by the emperor, but he did not do anything out of the ordinary, if it wasn't for the provocation of the pear Ling this time, it is estimated that Meng Meiren would not have been so ruthless to Bai Cairen.
Such a Meng beauty, Pear Ling naturally has her usefulness, but Meng Meiren has the arrogance of being a talented woman, so Pear Ling can't directly threaten her with the matter of Bai Cairen, in case Meng Meiren has resentment, then Pear Ling will lose more than she gains, for Meng Meiren, she can only slowly figure it out, so there is the scene just now.
She didn't force Meng Meiren, she just waited for Meng Meiren to figure it out by herself.
