Chapter 25 Come out with Concubine Lin
Chapter 25 comes out with Concubine Lin
Leng Yue looked at the jade pendant, it was very unfamiliar, she had never seen it, and she was thinking about how to answer, when she suddenly heard a few coughing sounds in her ears. When I turned my head to look, it was a strange, Lin Daiyu-type beauty walking in.
"It was lost by the concubine." She smiled and saluted, and said: "The concubine came to see the concubine's sister after she became a concubine yesterday, and the sister took pity on the concubine's weak body, so she gave this piece of warm jade to the concubine, and the concubine was reluctant to leave for a moment. I walked around this afternoon, and played with the palace maids in the imperial garden on a whim, and then the jade pendant was gone, and the concubine was not suspicious when Xiao Anzi passed by. Now come and talk to my sister, I don't want the emperor to be trying the case here. With that, she coughed lightly again.
The queen sneered, "Do you think you can slap her up by helping her speak?" ”
The concubine smiled and said: "The queen's words are wrong, the concubine has no power and no power, just the daughter of a thousand households, if you want to be powerful, who can be greater than the queen?" However, this little Anzi picked up the jade pendant of the concubine, and you didn't dare to admit it when the queen found it, and I don't know who instructed it, so I actually recorded the mistake on the head of the concubine's sister. ”
After speaking, she asked the little palace daughter again: "You can take a look again." Standing so far away, did you really see that the concubine Niangniang gave the jade pendant to Xiao Anzi? The daughter of the small palace turned pale and hesitated: "This ...... The slave is not very sure. ”
The appearance of this concubine who had never heard of the name was unexpected by Leng Yue, and she asked Jiuling and Ruyi with her eyes, and the two of them were also at a loss, and they both shook their heads lightly at her.
The queen over there didn't allow Leng Yue to think too much, and cried loudly: "Your Majesty, even if there is no evidence for the investigation of the jade pendant, the puppet is found in the palace of the concubine, and the evidence of its harm to the prince is like a mountain, please ask the emperor to investigate." ”
The emperor groaned slightly, and turned to Leng Yue: "Will my concubine really do such a thing?" ”
Leng Yue said calmly: "The concubine has never seen this thing before, and the concubine doesn't understand why some people keep saying that they are instructed by the concubine...... Please also ask the emperor to take a clear look. ”
The queen shouted: "There are all the human and material evidence, and you are still quibbling? After speaking, she dragged her crying voice and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you have always been selfless, please be the master of your concubines." ”
The emperor looked at Leng Yue hesitantly...... frowned and said: "The intention is to harm the prince, and the matter is serious." After all, the puppets were searched from the Huiyue Palace, and the evidence was ironclad. Xiao Anzi immediately dragged out the cane and died, and the concubine was grounded from today. I will hand this matter over to the queen and Concubine Lin for trial, and if the concubine is indeed harmful to the prince, I will punish him severely. ”
The emperor asked the little eunuch who found the puppet: "Where did you find this puppet?" ”
The little eunuch replied truthfully: "Back to the emperor, this puppet was found in a small box in the treasury. ”
"Small boxes? Bring. "The emperor seems to have thought of something.
After a while, the little eunuch brought the little box, and when it was opened, it revealed that the contents were full of knick-knacks.
The emperor was about to speak, and Concubine Lin took the puppet and said with a smile: "What a strange puppet." I don't want this puppet to harm people, but I don't attach the eight characters of birthday! But I don't know who is harming? ”
When the emperor heard this, he took the puppet and looked at it carefully. He pulled off all the steel needles from the puppet's body and lifted his coat. Sure enough, there was a dense row of small characters inside, but these words were all acupuncture point names.
The queen's face was red and white for a while, and Concubine Lin smiled at the emperor again: "Your Majesty, it is a pure misunderstanding for the concubine to see this. It is not uncommon for the minions to do wrong things themselves, and to falsely accuse their masters. What kind of witchcraft is this, no matter how you look at it, it is a puppet used by a doctor to practice acupuncture when he first learned. ”
The emperor nodded, held up the puppet and asked, "Who is this thing?" Now come out and confess that I will forgive him not guilty. ”
Ruyi, who was kneeling on the side, climbed forward a few steps, kowtowed vigorously and said: "The slave should die, the emperor forgives the sin, that puppet is used by the slave to practice acupuncture." Last time, the emperor suddenly gave a heavy reward to the concubine, and the slave accidentally dropped the puppet inside when he checked it, and the emperor forgave the sin......"
The emperor snorted coldly: "Why didn't you come out to identify just now?" ”
Ruyi cried: "Your Majesty, the slave is afraid of death, the emperor pardons the innocence, and the slave dares to come out and claim it." ”
The emperor snorted coldly: "Slaves who are greedy for life and afraid of death, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, pull it out and beat the twenty boards." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your ......kindness," Ruyi thanked him and was driven out by two eunuchs.
The emperor glanced at the queen and said, "Since it was a misunderstanding, the queen should go back to Qifeng Palace, I want to go to see the prince." After the emperor finished speaking, no one looked at him, took Concubine Lin's hand and left.
Concubine Lin glanced back at Leng Yue before going out, and this one contained a lot of ......
The emperor walked away, and Leng Yue hurriedly went out to stop the execution, but Ruyi was still beaten more than a dozen boards, and her ass bloomed.
Leng Yue saw Ruyi lying there, his body was covered with blood, and he almost burst into tears, and glared fiercely at the eunuch who was executed, the eunuch was glared at by Leng Yue's cold eyes, and his legs suddenly weakened, and he knelt down and said: "Guifei Niangniang, the slave is measured, only hurts the flesh and skin, not the muscles and bones." ”
Leng Yue was born as a criminal policeman, and he has also studied ancient punishments, and knows that there are two kinds of boards, one is to see blood without hurting his life, and the other is to hurt his life without seeing blood. After listening to the eunuch's words, she relieved herself, took out a small golden gram from her bosom and put it in the eunuch's hand and said, "Very good, this is a reward for you, you go down." ”
The two eunuchs won the reward and left happily, Leng Yue helped Ruyi up and said, "Fool, who told you to come out?" Fortunately, the eunuchs of Fang Cai showed mercy, otherwise these twenty boards would not have killed you? ”
Ruyi smiled: "Niangniang, don't you blame the slave?" This matter almost affected the mother! ”
Nian Jiuling helped Ruyi into the house, and said with a smile while giving him medicine: "What kind of character is Niangniang?" She knows the puppet isn't yours. ”
Ruyi grinned in pain, but still couldn't help asking: "Niangniang, do you really know that the puppet is not a slave?" ”
Leng Yue took a cup of tea with her own hands, fed it to Ruyi and drank a few sips before smiling: "You, what a stupid child." But if you hadn't come forward to recognize the puppet today, I'm afraid something even more terrifying would have happened. ”
"Oops...... What a horrible thing? "Ruyi is a child after all, and she is very curious.
Leng Yue glanced at Nian Jiuling and said, "You ask him." ”
Nian Jiuling smiled and said: "The acupuncture points written on the puppet are all human body acupoints, and any one of them will cause serious injuries to people, and even a few of them are dead points, and if they are pierced, they will die." ”
Ruyi gasped and said, "Fortunately, I didn't dig deeper, otherwise the slave would have died." ”
Leng Yue stretched out her hand and pinched Ruyi's face, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, your master and I are hard enough, and the emperor has the heart to protect him, otherwise the emperor is so shrewd, how can he not see that those acupoints are the acupoints of the human body?" Moreover, the man who designed all of this did not seem to have expected you to be faithful to the Lord, so he did not delve further. She's a smart person, she knows when to stop, she's amazing......"
Nian Jiuling and Ruyi asked in unison, "Who?" ”
