Volume 4 Xiao Wall Chapter 15 Betrayal
"When it happened, Yi Concubine heard someone remind me loudly, this person is you?" As soon as he sat down, Xuan Ye looked sharply at Yan Wan who was standing behind the concubine.
Yan Wan stepped forward, knelt on the ground and replied, "It's a slave." β
"Did you know that platform was going to collapse?" Xiaozhuang also heard it, and she asked hurriedly.
"The slave is just guessing." Yan Wan replied: "Before the incident, the slave maid had seen a little eunuch sneaking around the stage, and she didn't feel sick at the time, but when Concubine Yi and Lord Han walked on the stage, the slave maid figured out that the little eunuch probably did something to the stage and wanted to harm Niangniang and Lord Han." β
"How can you be sure that someone is trying to harm them?" Before Xuan Ye and Xiaozhuang could speak, they heard the voice of Concubine Tong on the side.
"The slave is not sure, just a guess." Yan Wan was very calm, she knew in her heart that there was something in Concubine Tong's words, and the meaning of warning was very strong. But it has come to this, and she will not let go of such a good opportunity.
Although, there may be some things about Empress Renxiao and her sister Yu Yan in the body of the concubine. But more than two years have passed, and the concubine has not even mentioned it, and she doesn't want to waste any more time and continue to deal with people like the concubine.
"Since ......" Concubine Tong had just spoken, she saw Chun Xi stand up and walk to Yan Wan's side, her eyes kept staring at her, and she didn't continue to ask.
"The mourning family heard your voice call is Master, but it is Han Ji?" Xiaozhuang saw that Concubine Tong stopped talking, so he asked the doubts in his heart.
"Yes." Yan Wan said truthfully: "Before the slave maid entered the palace, she used to be a person who returned to the idle building. was carefully cultivated and cared for by Lord Han, and the slave maid entered the palace because of Lord Han. β
"Oh? So why did you enter the palace? Now that he already knows the identity of her and Han Ji, Xiaozhuang will inevitably be curious again. She didn't expect that this woman would be Han Ji's apprentice, and sure enough, she also had some of Han Ji's demeanor. is not surprised, after entering the palace for many years, he still remembers the old feelings, and in an uncertain situation, he risks the following crimes, and reminds his master with a shout.
"Then you have to ask the concubine." Yan Wan turned her head sideways and glanced at Concubine Tong who was sitting next to her.
As soon as she heard her mention herself, Concubine Tong knew in her heart. Sure enough, it was just as she had imagined. She couldn't help but glance at the concubine beside her, and scolded her silently in her heart, then she turned around and stood up elegantly, and replied: "Back then, the concubine admired Lord Han's chess skills and invited Lord Han into the palace to teach. Later, Lord Han was canonized by the emperor as a six-grade ceremony, and he became busy. Lord Han recommended his proud protΓ©gΓ© to enter the palace and teach his concubines. β
What happened back then, who can say no. Whatever Yan Wan's purpose for entering the palace, it is a fact that she is Han Ji's apprentice. It is also a fact that Yan Wan can sing and dance and play chess. Concubine Tong naturally wouldn't say that Yan Wan was sent to the palace by Han Ji, and she wanted to dedicate it to the emperor. This matter was also raised by herself, and she categorically would not take the matter on herself.
Xiaozhuang looked at Han Ji, who was still in Fuquan's arms, and only heard Han Ji say: "That's the case, Yan Wan is the most proud disciple of the concubine." β
"Then why is she now the palace maid next to the concubine?" Breaking the sand pot and asking to the end, maybe if you want to understand tonight's events, Yan Wan's identity must be figured out first.
At that time, she made some mistakes in the Chengqian Palace and asked her concubine to transfer Xinzhi. What happened later, the concubines are not clear. "Passing off everything is also what Concubine Tong has always been able to do.
When she said this, she had already made it clear that she wanted to break off the relationship with the concubine.
Everyone's eyes were on the concubine, and she was already a little stunned at this time, and the worries and fears in her heart had all been suppressed.
"The slave and maid are thanks to the grace of the concubine Niangniang, so that they can leave from a place like Xin Zhi and go to Changchun Palace to wait for Niangniang." Yan Wan spoke at the right time, so that everyone's eyes returned to her.
"The mourning family remembered, and remembered that once the concubine came to the mourning family, saying that there was a palace maid in Xin who saved her, she felt that this person was good, and wanted to ask for it. The mourning family didn't ask much, so they agreed. Xiaozhuang recalled that the concubine was full of smiles at that time, afraid that she would not agree, and said a lot of good things.
Yan Wan was silent for a while: "The slave maid has always been grateful for the kindness of the slave maid, but today is about the slave and maid's teacher, and the slave and maid can only live up to the maid." β
Her words surprised everyone present, and the concubine was about to sit still. She never thought that Yan Wan would really betray her.
"What do you mean by that?" Chun Xi, who was standing beside her, asked.
"Actually, there is another reason for the slave to guess that the little eunuch has done something to the table." Before Yan Wan finished speaking, she saw the concubine standing up.
"Yan Wan, don't talk nonsense. Everyone saw the situation at that time, but it was just an accident. Who is that little eunuch you are talking about? Where is it now? Is there really such a person? The concubine almost yelled, and she couldn't help it. She was afraid of what Yan Wan would see and hear.
But when she looked at Yan Wan's indifferent expression, she understood that she was finished.
"Mother, although you treat slaves and maids very well. But Lord Han is the master of the slave maid, and if it weren't for her, the slave would have died long ago. It was she who taught the slaves and maids to survive, and it was she who gave the slaves and maids the opportunity to enter the palace and meet you. The slave maid has fallen into a dilemma, but the slave maid doesn't want the maid to continue to be wrong. Yan Wan had already started crying as she spoke, not knowing if she was really uncomfortable, or if she had to be so uncomfortable now. Her tears made everyone feel that she had a big secret in her heart.
"What the hell is going on?" The more he listened, the more wrong it became, Xuan Ye roared angrily, and apart from Yan Wan's crying, he couldn't hear anyone talking.
Yan Wan wiped her tears and continued: "At noon, the concubine Niangniang once said that it was a little stuffy, and she didn't bring a feather fan, so let the slave maid get it. On the way back, the slave saw what the mother and a little eunuch were saying. The slave stood a little far away and didn't understand. But before the incident, the slave saw the little eunuch again, and then she knew that the little eunuch was going to ......"
Yan Wan glanced at the concubine halfway through her words, it was okay not to look at it, but this glance made the concubine angry, and she stretched out her hand and slapped Yan Wan firmly on the face, and said angrily: "Nonsense, this palace has no grudge against Lord Han, why harm her?" β
"What if Niangniang was going to hurt her in the first place, it wasn't Lord Han?" Yan Wan's tears were beaten even more by this slap, she covered her face with one hand and looked at the concubine sadly.
"What nonsense are you talking about." The concubine screamed loudly, and reached out to fight, but was pushed away by Chunxi.
Chun Xi said angrily: "What grievances do I have with you to use such a poisonous scheme to harm me? At that time, it should have been me who should have appeared on the stage, if it weren't for the strong words of the ladies who wanted to see me dance with my sister, they delayed for a while. Should I be halfway through the jump when the stage collapses and buries me alive? β
The concubine was pushed to the ground by Chunxi, and she shook her head desperately, trying to explain, only to find that she didn't know how to say it.
Her plan was to make everything an accident. Whether Chun Xi is dead or injured, it is good, then she is the winner.
"Since we can't understand this, we can't just listen to one-sided words. Who is the little eunuch in Yan Wan's mouth, can't you just let this person confront him in the court? Fu Quan, who had been silently watching this farce, stood up at Han Ji's prompt: "Since you want to figure it out, then find out the reason for the collapse of the platform and find the person who made it collapse." β
Fuquan's reminder made the concubine suddenly breathe a sigh of relief.
This matter may not really be over. There is no evidence, just relying on Yan Wan's words, whoever says it, no matter what it says, it is reasonable.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Since Yan Wan had seen the little eunuch, and said that the concubine had signaled the little eunuch to do this, then if she found such a person, wouldn't everything be revealed? If there really is such a person, then no matter what kind of accusation, the concubine will confess. The concubine knelt on the ground, and her tears didn't know if she was scared out, or because she was relieved and shed tears of relief.
Hearing the concubine say this, Chun Xi suddenly felt bad. If the concubine has the courage to confront him, then the little eunuch must have been dealt with.
Even if there is a portrait, it may not be able to find it for a while, let alone a person who has never been seen by anyone except Yan Wan.
This is not the palace, except for the palace maids and eunuchs brought out, they are all people who have been on errands in Yingtai. Originally, there were not many people, but because of the grandeur of this banquet, some people from elsewhere came to help.
After that chaos, all the ministers and wives also left one after another, and if they took this opportunity to hide in their carriages and horses, they went out. Who can guarantee that this person can be found?
It happened suddenly, and they didn't think about it in detail. rashly identified the concubine, and let Yan Wan be exposed. If it doesn't work out, it will become, Chunxi and Han Ji take this opportunity to wronged the good guys.
"It's fine. Yan Wan, you describe the appearance and characteristics of this person, Cao Ziqing, you will lead people to search one by one and find out the people. Xuan Ye immediately commanded.
She had mixed feelings, thinking about what method to use to stop it, but she saw Concubine Tong come over and say: "The concubine has a suggestion, everyone has seen the paintings of Concubine Yi Niangniang, and the painting is very good." It's better for Yan Wan to say, and Sister Yi Concubine to paint. With a portrait, wouldn't it be better to find someone? β
Chun Xi wanted to refuse, but saw Han Ji stand up. She had some injuries on her legs and was not very steady walking, so Fuquan immediately turned around and helped her.
"Your Majesty, my sister's hand is injured, and Han Ji is injured by her foot. Since she needs to paint a portrait, Han Ji is willing to do it for you. After Han Ji finished speaking, she glanced at Chunxi, a reassuring look that made Chunxi feel warm. (Palace's Gate.. /31/31987/)--
