Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Imperial Incident

The two walked in with their heads bowed, and were suddenly frightened by the majesty of the palace and knelt down.

"This is the palace maid Gu Ying of Qianning Palace, the doctor of Yiyuan Palace."

After Su Geling finished speaking, he glanced at them with their heads bowed, and only then did the two of them raise their heads in shock.

His hands trembled on the ground, and the corners of his mouth twitched faintly.

"Minister...... Your Majesty......"

"Slave maid...... Slaves and maids see Your Majesty......"

I saw that the woman who raised her head looked pretty and had delicate facial features, a pair of peach blossom-like big eyes, and a black mole on her pale red lips was particularly obvious.

Dr. Ruoguo, who was standing next to him, looked chubby, with some pimples and acne marks on his face inexplicably, thick eyebrows and small eyes that made people look a little embarrassed, and his medical uniform was slightly stretched up by his bulging stomach. The age of the two seems to be a little different.

"Don't grind, come quickly!"

Su Geling glanced at them and said impatiently.

The two kneeling on the ground looked at each other for a second, their eyes looking at His Majesty in the high hall, while His Majesty Li Ge was looking at them calmly and seriously, waiting for their answer.

A cold and domineering look made them even more nervous and flustered in an instant.

"I'm listening."

The language is calm and extremely sharp.

Gu Ying looked at Yan Moqi, Yan Moqi's indifferent expression made her pale all of a sudden, she lowered her head, frowned, her face showed horror, for a moment, she loosened her eyebrows again, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face, she raised her head, her eyes were inexplicably a little calm as if she were at home.

"Your Majesty...... Before the slave and maid say, can you implore Your Majesty to promise the slave and maid one thing? The slave and maid knew that they were no longer qualified to talk about any conditions at this time, but they still begged His Majesty to satisfy the slave and maid, and the slave and maid would be relieved even if they died. ”

She spoke from soft at the beginning to hard and loud, her hands nervously grasped her dress, and Ruoguo next to her looked at her anxiously and suspiciously, not expecting her to speak in front of her at all, let alone that she would negotiate terms with His Majesty.

The officials on the left and right sides of the palace whispered and negotiated terms with His Majesty? When death is on the verge of death, are you still qualified to negotiate conditions? Don't look at how many pounds and taels you have, aren't you afraid of a five-horse corpse?

The palace started talking all of a sudden, and Yan Moqi cast his eyes on Gao Tang, only to see that there was no ripple on his calm face.

His Majesty Li Ge, whom Yan Moqi knew, hated others to blackmail him the most, not to mention being a palace maid and a woman!

"Say it! I promise you. ”

As soon as His Majesty Li Ge's words came out, everyone looked at him in shock, Yan Moqi's eyes widened even more, an unprecedented blow hit him, His Majesty really changed, and it became even more incomprehensible!

Gu Ying was a little incredulous, she opened her mouth slightly in surprise, and then kowtowed to thank her.

"Can you say that now? Well? Su Geling, who was standing behind her, reminded her.

"Hmm...... Your Majesty, the slave's father and mother died early, and the slave and maid were adopted by her uncle who was also poor in her family at the age of ten, but the slave's greedy and alcoholic uncle often beat the slave and the maid, and even threatened to sell the slave and the maid into prostitutes. Courtyard, remember that it was a heavy rainy day, the slave maid was beaten by a drunken uncle at home and tore off his clothes, he dragged the slave maid to the bed, picked up a wooden stick and beat the slave maid like a beast, in order to save his life, the slave maid had to pick up the scissors on the bed and stabbed him in the chest, to make sure that he was not breathing before he fled in a panic, on the way the slave fainted to the ground, but was rescued by Ruoguo who went out to find medicinal herbs......"

She choked up as she spoke, and her moist eyes glanced at Ruoguo.

In order to avoid the pursuit of officers and soldiers, begging Ruoguo to take the slave maid into the palace, but coincidentally, she met Concubine Zhou on the first day of entering the imperial city, she sent someone to investigate the origin of the slave maid, and then knew the news that the slave maid was being hunted down, just when the slave maid thought that she was going to leave the world, Concubine Zhou ordered the slave maid to go to Qianning Palace, instead of pulling the slave maid to the prison cell, she released the slave maid and the doctor Ruoguo, saying that there was a clever palace maid in Qianning Palace, and let the slave maid be a personal maid...... ”

"Can you avoid all this nonsense? Your Majesty is letting you in to tell the truth, not telling you about your ridiculous past! Yan Moqi said coldly.

"Yes...... Prince. When the first emperor was there, Concubine Zhou was jealous of the Su Zhang, who was loved by His Majesty, because she was snubbed by the first emperor, and wanted to harm them more than once, but she couldn't find a suitable opportunity. Yesterday, the slave maid bribed the eunuch who came and went to Xuanmin Palace to talk about what happened in the court, and learned that Su Geling angered Concubine Zhou in the court, His Majesty did not put the prince in his eyes at all, Concubine Zhou asked the slave to take out the poison that had been kept before and gave it to her, and then walked to Xuanmin Palace, the slave and maid really didn't know that this medicine was taken by Concubine Zhou herself, and the slave thought it was ...... I thought she was using it to deal with Su Zhang's envoy......"

Su Zhang's life is so sloppy?

"You mean that the Xuanmin Temple is just an illusion made by her on purpose? She wants to point all the cattle at us? Su Geling's cold expression was a little more suspicious.

Impossible, right? If you put your life on a frame, aren't you afraid of falling out? When the truth is known, the innocent will be released, but the dead will sleep forever!

"How can I believe what you say?" His Majesty Li Ge was silent for a while, and finally had a chance to speak.

Gu Ying hurriedly explained in a panic, no matter how cold the weather was, he was also pulled out in a cold sweat by his nervous and frightened heart at this time.

"Your Majesty, the slave maid is true, the slave maid has a handle in the hands of Concubine Zhou, although the slave maid has already seen through it in her heart, staying by Concubine Zhou's side will die sooner or later, but the slave maid does not want to move to Doctor Ruoguo in her heart...... If the doctor is helpless to give the poison, please spare him, and all the blame will be borne by the slave and maid! ”

She knocked her head three times in succession.

Ruoguo next to him was nervous and restless, and his head was fixed in place, but Gu Ying's words made his chubby body tremble slightly, and he looked at her with small sand-like eyes, but he seemed affectionate and dignified.

"What else does Dr. Wakago have to say?" His Majesty Li Ge glanced at Ruoguo, only to see that his face was very ugly, his narrow eyes made it impossible to see his expression, and his throat rose and fell up and down.

All the people in the palace stared at him, Gu Ying pulled his clothes worriedly, he slowly raised his head and looked at Yan Moqi.

Everyone's eyes then shifted to Yan Moqi.

"Why are you looking at me?" Yan Moqi said calmly.

Ruoguo immediately lowered his head again, and his closed mouth opened and closed in a very tangled manner.

His Majesty Li Ge sensed something, and his eyes looked at Ruoguo.

"Doctor Ruoguo, I don't know what you have to say, but it is a capital offense to deceive the emperor."

"If so...... You ......" Gu Ying was stunned in her heart, and an ominous premonition came to her heart...... Her face turned pale instantly, and she looked at him in a daze.

"Your Majesty......"

If you bow your whole head to the ground, you knock your head quietly on the cold floor, and you don't lift your head.

"Your Majesty...... Minister...... The minister is guilty...... Damn it...... ......He knocked on the ground and trembled, and his trembling voice caused a panic.

His Majesty Li Ge loosened his shoulders, and at this time, he temporarily stranded Li Kai, who was silent in the palace, to the side.

The love of children is long, or find a romantic place to talk about in private.

"How can you be damned, Doctor Ruoguo?" His Majesty Li Ge's eyebrows were a little tightened, and his cold eyes were a little more suspicious and uneasy.

"Your Majesty......"

Ruoguo curled up his chubby body tighter, his body trembled even more, and his mouth trembled and twitched.

"Your Majesty...... Emperor ...... The first emperor was assassinated by Concubine Zhou......"

As soon as the words fell, His Majesty Li Ge's eyes were certain, and he stood up in shock, Yan Moqi was even more stunned, his eyes were red with excitement for a while, and the green tendons on his forehead exploded obviously......

Su Geling took Su Gehuan, who was so frightened that his feet were numb, that he took a few steps back unconsciously, and Li Kai covered his mouth with his hand, his eyes widened in a daze.

The ministers talked one after another, and when they came back to their senses, His Majesty Li Ge had already walked down the palace at a rapid pace and was standing in front of him.

"Tell me a little bit more."

Ruoguo just raised his head, and his eyes were facing the stern and fierce eyes of His Majesty Li Ge.

"Your Majesty......" he kowtowed vigorously, his frightened eyes narrowing like tears were squeezed out.

"Your Majesty...... At that time, the Manchu Dynasty knew that His Majesty and the prince were the right and left hands of the first emperor, but the first emperor intended to place the emperor in His Majesty. Medicine, the minister did not know that the first emperor would be assassinated...... Minister, minister is stupid! ”

His Majesty Li Ge closed his eyes, closed the corners of his mouth, and an inexplicable anger instantly surged into his heart.

"Gu Ying, I ask you, is this true?" He landed his gaze on her face.

"Slave maid...... The slave is guilty...... Buff. The medicine was put in the medicinal soup by the slave maid, Concubine Zhou...... Concubine Zhou picked up the dagger and forced the first emperor who was lying on the numb chair in the imperial room to pass on the throne, but the first emperor was unwilling, the first emperor said...... Saying that the decree had been prepared and handed over to Lord Shangshu, Concubine Zhou was angry and lost her mind and stabbed at the first emperor......"

Gu Ying's trembling voice spat out the truth word by word.

His Majesty Li Ge, who was in front of him, straightened his eyes, he didn't expect it, he didn't expect it to be Concubine Zhou at all! Think about the resentment when he was questioned by civil and military officials and people all over the world in the court, and think about Li Kai's wound for his own grievance and scapegoat, he gritted his teeth, if he looked carefully at that time, he would not have been framed one after another!

"Then on the night of the emperor's death, you went to the autopsy, but in fact, you had already received a notice to clean up the scene and then pretended to go? You did all the guards who were guarding outside the palace at night and fell to the ground in a daze? His Majesty Li Ge raised his neck and held up his fat chin.

He swallowed.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty spares your life...... All this is not what we want, we are forced, Your Majesty spares our lives! Your Majesty also knows that Concubine Zhou is ruthless, and if she doesn't obey her orders, the slave maid and the doctor Ruoguo will die without a place to be buried! Gu Ying hugged His Majesty Li Ge's dragon robe tightly, the raised peach blossom eyes and pear blossoms brought rain, and his expression was painful and desperate.

His Majesty Li Ge swept his eyes over hers.

His eyes were cold and piercing.

"If we could do it all over again, I think you'd do the same."
