Chapter 778: Self-confession
"Your Majesty, you are not in good health, why bother to hurt your mind for these trivial things, and besides, this matter is tried by your mother, so you don't have to work hard." Father-in-law Chu hurriedly stood up, his face full of worry.
Concubine Shu didn't know how the emperor could be so angry, and when she saw Gonggong Chu talking for herself, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you are busy with government affairs, if there is something urgent, go back first, and when this matter has a result, the concubine will come over again and ask you to decide." ”
The emperor looked at Gonggong Chu, then at Concubine Shu, and sat back, "No need, you can continue." ”
Hearing the emperor's words, Concubine Shu was relieved and responded.
The kneeling crowd also quietly wiped a handful of sweat, got up and sat back down.
"Since this matter is related to Princess Wanyi, then summon Princess Wanyi over as well, and you will find out as soon as you ask." After a brief silence, Concubine Shu spoke again.
Hearing this, Helian Min immediately became anxious.
"No—"
Now Wanyi has already turned pale with fright because she killed Han Yan with her own hands, if she came over in a while, how could she cope with Concubine Shu's interrogation with her scheming? Isn't it revealing in three or two clicks?
What's more, when Wanyi strangled Han Yan to death at that time, there were still many scars on her hands left by Han Yan's struggle......
Therefore, Helian Min shouted out without thinking about it, but when she finished speaking, she remembered how abrupt and undesirable her demeanor was at this time.
So she immediately came back to her senses and hurriedly explained, "Wanyi is still sick, if she comes over, how can she infect the nobles?"
Her explanation was very far-fetched, and everyone finally looked at her suspiciously.
Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, then looked at her with a smile and said, "I didn't expect that the eldest princess and Wanyi are really sisters." ”
She wasn't really lamenting the relationship between the two, with a sneer at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
Helian Min knew that she was suspicious of herself, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
She didn't know how Concubine De said that Concubine Shu cooperated with their actions today and tricked Su Yiyi into going to see Han Yan, and she didn't know how much Concubine Shu was involved in this matter, but she understood that what Concubine Shu hated most now should be Su Yiyi.
With a roll of her eyes, she came up with an idea, and immediately said, "Niangniang, now that this matter is clear, and the human and material evidence are there, why do you need to try Wanyi." ”
Anyway, now that Yin Jingrui has been separated by the five princes, at this time, no one will help Su Yiyi speak, Concubine Shu has convicted Su Yiyi, and even if Yin Jingrui rushes back, I am afraid it will be difficult to overturn the case.
Helian Min was handing over a message to Concubine Shu and asked her to quickly dispose of Su Yiyi.
"Slow, this matter is full of suspicions, according to the opinion of the concubines, it should be tried clearly, how can you be in such a hurry to convict? The eldest princess, you are so pushy and unwilling to summon Wanyi, don't you really have some ulterior secrets? ”
Concubine Shu hadn't spoken yet, and Concubine De on the side immediately said.
Although she wished that Su Yiyi would die, the premise was that Su Yiyi was really the murderer of Han Yan, but Helian Min's reaction just now didn't look like it had nothing to do with this matter.
Concubine De's heart couldn't help but be filled with doubts, could it really be that this incident was really done by Helian Min? This possibility also makes sense, after all, she knew Han Yan's plan best at that time, and if she wanted to do something from it, it would be easy!
Thinking about it like this, the more Concubine De thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, and suddenly her liver was painful.
She never thought that her plan was to lure the wolf into the house and make a wedding dress for her.
"Concubine De Niangniang......" Helian Min looked up a little panicked, and when she saw the suspicion and instructions in Concubine De's eyes, she knew that Concubine De was already suspicious of herself, and she would not be able to speak for herself anymore.
She couldn't help but feel anxious in her heart, the current situation was not in her favor.
If it goes on like this, Wanyi will inevitably be found out, and in this way, she won't be able to run away, what should I do?
"You don't have to summon Wanyi, this matter has nothing to do with her."
Just when Helian Min was at a loss for what to do, someone came out of the crowd and knelt down.
Looking at Yin Rulan kneeling in front of her, Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes, making people unable to see through her thoughts.
"Celestia? Why, do you know something?"
"Yes, Rulan is guilty, in fact, Concubine Han was killed by Rulan." Yin Rulan nodded, and said in an astonishing tone.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp and looked at her in disbelief.
"Celestia, do you know what you're talking about?" Concubine Shu also woke up from the shock, and looked at Yin Rulan with a sneer, a sharp flash between her eyebrows.
"Niangniang, this kind of thing, Rulan knows that it is powerful, how can she stand up for others for no reason? So you don't need to doubt it. ”
Yin Rulan was very calm.
When the people next to her heard her words, they also began to whisper.
This is a big crime to kill people in the palace, not to mention that the object of the murder is still Concubine De's niece, the side concubine of the eldest prince, if it weren't for Yin Rulan's own weak heart and confessed by herself, how could she stupidly run out and confess?
So they immediately believed that this incident was indeed Yin Rulan's own doing.
"Really? Since the eldest princess confessed herself, then I don't know why you and Concubine Han have no grievances, why did you suddenly kill her? Concubine Shu asked quietly.
"No grievances?" Hearing Concubine Shu's words, Yin Rulan smiled, her face full of sarcastic smiles, "Since the death of my mother, how has Concubine De treated our sisters?" How to count as innocent? ”
Saying this, everyone next to him showed their expressions.
When the queen was alive, this concubine was flattering like a dog raised by the queen, and when the queen died, she immediately changed her face and began to brutalize and scold the Yin Rulan sisters.
The harem has always been full of things that praise the high and the low, but everyone still has a lot of disdain for Concubine De's behavior.
But in this way, Yin Rulan's killing of Han Yan can be regarded as reasonable.
After all, some time ago, Concubine De often found the wrong place to punish Princess Wanyi, and also snatched the dowry prepared for Wanyi, Yin Rulan suddenly killed Han Yan to vent her anger, which is also reasonable.
"These days, my father asked Concubine De Niangniang to assist in the six palaces, but Concubine De Niangniang relied on the right in her hand to scold my sister Wanyi and make it difficult...... It's just that Concubine De Niangniang has a noble status, and there are palace maids guarding her when she goes in and out, so I can't get close to her, so I can only take advantage of the opportunity to sneak into Han Yan's house, and then strangle her, intending to take revenge on Concubine De Niangniang. ”
Yin Rulan recounted again, in a clear manner.
"Presumptuous, your sister made a mistake by herself, and this palace was ordered by His Majesty to assist the sixth palace, isn't it right to punish those who make mistakes?" Hearing this, Concubine De stood up from the chair angrily and said angrily.
At this moment, she was full of killing intent, she knew that Sister Yin Rulan was such a person, so she should have struck first!
"Whether to declare a personal vendetta, Niangniang knows it in her heart." Yin Rulan just sneered and sneered.
Concubine De was completely angry, she immediately looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, please be the master of the concubine!" ”
