Chapter 517: The Empress took the opportunity to reprimand Jiang Wanxiu

So not only would she not stop Jiang Wanxiu from going to find out Gu Pity, but she also wished that Jiang Wanxiu would treat Gu Pity as a murderer and come up with an unjust, false and wrongful case.

At that time, the rumors that Jiang Wanxiu planted an innocent girlfriend as the murderer in order to close the case will be popular in Kyoto.

Mei Lanxin is either a participant in this case or an eyewitness.

And, ancient pity should be innocent.

Mei Lanxin didn't know that she had been exposed.

Don't talk about her, even a smart person like Zhao Fumeng didn't find any mystery.

"Wan Xiu, even if Mei Lanxin really knows any clues, she won't tell you. I came to ask her, is this a waste of effort? Zhao Fumeng had a strange feeling, as if something had happened.

Jiang Wanxiu pursed her lips and smiled, "She didn't say anything, it's also a clue." Let's go, let's go see Gu Pity. ”

There are two pavilions in the east and west of the courtyard, the east pavilion is Ceylon when recuperating from injuries, and the ancient pity lives in the west pavilion.

This happened today, and you ladies took a day off.

Gu pity sat in the room reading a book, uneasy.

When Ceylon was almost poisoned.

Everyone knows that there is a feud between the two families in Shigu, and if no evidence can be found at that time, the chief officer will not put everything on his head in order to close the case quickly.

After all, if the murderer can't be found, then all the responsibility is Jiang Wanxiu's back, and after her official position is played, she doesn't know how many grades she will be demoted.

Jiang Wanxiu shouldn't be such a person, right? But there are too many people who don't live up to their reputation.

Gu Pity has never dealt with Jiang Wanxiu, and everything about her is just hearsay, coupled with Jiang Wanxiu's vigorous and resolute methods in etiquette, her heart is even more uneasy.

There was a knock on the door. "Is Miss Gu here?"

This is Jiang Wanxiu's voice.

Gu Pity's face changed, and he hurriedly got up and opened the door, "The courtier has seen the lady of the palace. ”

"No courtesy." Jiang Wanxiu looked at her and said, "Shi Ceylon was almost killed, I'm here to ask you a few questions, you don't have to be nervous." ”

Gu pity how can she not be nervous, but she has seen the world in the end, and she quickly stabilized her mind, pulled out a smile and said, "Madame, please." But ask, know everything. ”

The Guest of Honour is seated.

"Have you been to the East Pavilion recently?" Jiang Wanxiu asked.

Gu regretfully shook his head and replied truthfully, "I don't have a good relationship with Shi Ceylon, I think you can find out these ladies, so I won't say more." So although they are in the same house, they don't go to the future. The courtiers also did not go to her East Pavilion. ”

Jiang Wanxiu nodded, glanced around her room and said, "Although this request is a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask for your opinion, are you willing to let Wang Weisi's female official search your room?" ”

After a pause, Jiang Wanxiu said again: "Of course, without evidence, I shouldn't have searched your room." You can also reject me. ”

"The courtier's body is not afraid of the shadow, and she asks the lady to search and return my innocence."

Gu Pian didn't get angry because of this request, but said with a slight sigh of relief: "I also know that many people are suspicious of me, if this can alleviate the suspicion of me, but Madame has helped me a lot." ”

Residences are not allowed to be searched without evidence, and some people who value face more than anything else will not let people search at all.

Even if he has to search in order to clear his suspicion, he will not have a good face.

But Gu pity wanted to thank Jiang Wanxiu instead, she was a very good girl.

Jiang Wanxiu smiled and said, "Go and invite Wang Weisi." Let them handle it gently, and don't break the old girl's things. ”

Xi Lingfu retreated, and after a while, he brought Wang Shijin and others over to search.

They checked carefully, and Jiang Wanxiu continued to ask about some things while she was free.

"Madam, after the investigation, I didn't find anything suspicious."

Wang Assorted Reports. Jiang Wanxiu said: "Thank you for your hard work." Turning to look at Gu Pitying, "Miss Gu is frank and very cooperative, although the two of you are feuding, but I think your suspicion is very small, you don't have to worry."

I will find out the truth, I will not wronged a good person, and I will not let the real culprit go unpunished. ”

"Madame is discerning, and the courtiers are grateful."

Gu took pity and thanked him.

This is relieved, it seems that this world-famous princess is indeed not the kind of person who casually finds someone to blame.

While a few people were talking, An Shuhui walked over quickly and said, "Wanxiu, you go out to pick up the car quickly." The Queen Mother is here! I come toward the house. ”

The queen actually arrived at Yuanhuayuan.

The response was so fast, and I came prepared.

"I didn't expect the queen to come in person, everyone, please come with me."

Jiang Wanxiu's face was calm, and she said: When the queen arrived, even Mei Lanxin, who was pretending to be sick, came over to greet her.

Everyone gathered in front of the courtyard to greet them. "What about Ceylon? How is she? The queen asked.

Jiang Wanxiu replied, "Back to Niangniang's words, Shi Ceylon was sick and rested in the room, and failed to come out to greet her, Niangniang forgive me." ”

"Jiang Wanxiu, good and dignified, how could Shi Ceylon be poisoned? Is that the safety of your etiquette like that?

Shi Ceylon's grandfather is the emperor's teacher, the emperor heard that the grandson of the emperor's master almost died, Long Yan was furious, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, in Yuanhuayuan, such a vicious thing happened, Jiang Wanxiu, what should you be guilty of! The queen scolded.

Jiang Wanxiu blessed her body, "Niangniang is right, the concubine knows her mistakes, this is the responsibility of the concubine." Therefore, the concubine will definitely catch the real murderer as soon as possible, and ask the concubine to give the concubine a chance to make up for it. ”

"You're so careless, Hongu really doesn't know how to trust you anymore. Are Wang Weisi all a group of white food eaters? The queen changed her words and continued to scold.

The head of the guard Wang Shijin stepped forward and saluted, "The concubine knows her mistake, please punish the queen." ”

"Reprimand? What's the use of punishing you now, the poison has been ordered, and everyone is almost dying, how did you do it, what do you do......" The queen used the topic to play and reprimanded Jiang Wanxiu and others.

After fighting with Jiang Wanxiu so many times, she has been losing miserably, and finally grabbed Jiang Wanxiu's pigtails, even a person like the queen who has a deep city government, can't help but reprimand a few more times, and the depression in her heart comes out a lot.

At this moment, a weak voice trembled and said: "When the courtiers are Ceylon, see the queen's mother." ”

It was with the support of the two maidservants, the steps were vain, and he barely went out of the house.

"Aren't you sick? How did you get up. Don't go and rest yet. ”

When the queen saw her, her face returned to the gentleness of a spring breeze.

Shi Ceylon said weakly: "The courtiers heard the queen mother reprimanding the lady in charge of the palace in the house, and she couldn't help but have a word. This incident is all to blame for the murderer's lawlessness. If it weren't for the Lady of the Palace who arranged for the shadow guards to protect my safety, Ceylon would have been killed. The courtiers thought that the lady in charge of the palace prevented a murder and saved the courtier's life, and she really shouldn't be reprimanded for negligence. ”

The motherly smile on the queen's face suddenly froze.

She used Shi Ceylon as an excuse to severely reprimand Jiang Wanxiu and others, but the parties ran out and slapped their faces, saying that they were not to blame.

At this time, Ceylon didn't deal with Jiang Wanxiu very badly. Even helped her speak, damn it.

"The queen mother, if it weren't for the lady in charge of the palace to save her, the courtiers would have died. The courtiers were grateful, and asked the queen to open up. Shi Ceylon said earnestly.

Jiang Wanxiu looked at her and saw her nodding slightly to herself.

It seems that Ceylon is not going to be an enemy anymore.

When Ye Yao'er heard this, she couldn't wait to sew Shi Xilan's mouth shut.

It's rare for the queen to help us vent our evil anger.

Why are you still sabotaging, why are you so unreasonable.

"Shi Ceylon, ensuring the safety of etiquette, this is Jiang Wanxiu's duty, and she is duty-bound."

The queen maintained a graceful and elegant smile on her face, but when she was interrupted like this, she couldn't continue to reprimand, so she had to return to the topic, looked at Jiang Wanxiu and said: "The poisoning case happened in Yuanhuayuan, and the real culprit must be found out as soon as possible." lest the real murderer do it to others. Jiang Wanxiu, how many days do you need? ”

When they heard this, they were shocked.

Few days? Now there is no clue about this case, there is nothing in the human and physical evidence, only a few days, can you be a person to pinch it?

"The concubine must find out the real murderer before the end of the ceremony." Jiang Wanxiu said.

"The end of the ceremony? Isn't that more than 20 days away, and the palace can afford to wait, but what about the ladies. The killers could commit another crime at any time, and their lives were in danger for each of them. You need so long, don't you take your girlfriend's life in your eyes? ”

The queen was aggressive, staring at Jiang Wanxiu, her eyes sharp.

Jiang Wanxiu frowned lightly, thought for a while and said: "Then ten days, I promise that within ten days, the murderer will be found, give an explanation to the queen, and give everyone a safe Yuanhuayuan." ”

The female officials under Jiang Wanxiu all looked at Jiang Wanxiu worriedly.

Ten days to solve the case? But now there is no object of suspicion.

"Ten days, that's too long." Ye Yao'er said with an exaggerated face: "We still have to be here for ten days of panic, how can we learn etiquette well, if it really takes ten days, I don't think so, so I will give us our vacation and let us go back." ”

She was about to be tossed to death by Jiang Wanxiu.

I can't wait for the etiquette to end soon.

Jiang Wanxiu said in a calm tone, "Everyone is suspicious, and no one is allowed to leave until the truth is ascertained." ”

"Hey, let's stay with the murderer for ten days, Jiang Wanxiu, did you deliberately send us to death?" Ye Yao'er looked furious, and she kept saying the word "we", as if she represented the ladies alone.

Jiang Wanxiu walked in front of her and looked her up and down carefully, "Ye Yao'er, you are so eager to leave, are you the murderer, afraid that I will find out the truth, so you want to run first?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about! Sister Shu and I are like sisters, how could I poison her? ”

Ye Yao'er argued: "It's really dangerous to stay here, who doesn't want to leave." ”

Jiang Wanxiu glanced at the ladies lightly and said: "What you said is right, there was such an accident, and everyone retreated, but everyone knew that the real murderer could not be allowed to go unpunished, so they overcame their inner fear and insisted on staying here until the truth was found."

You are the only one who said that you want to leave, and the other ladies didn't say anything, it's not that you have a weak heart, what is it? ”

The ladies were silent in their hearts.

In fact, they really don't want to stay here, but Jiang Wanxiu has already said so, who will jump out to refute it?

If you want to leave, you are weak-hearted, isn't it as suspicious as Ye Yao'er.

"I didn't, I ......" Ye Yao'er's face flushed, and she couldn't explain clearly.

Jiang Wanxiu waved her hand, "You don't have to be nervous, I will not judge by feeling when I handle the case, although you are suspicious now, but there is no evidence, I will not arrest you, and when I find evidence, it is not too late to bring you to justice." ”

"What kind of justice, it has nothing to do with me at all, Jiang Wanxiu, you are simply spewing blood......" Ye Yao's face was blue with anger, and her teeth creaked.

When the queen saw this scene, her face sank, "Okay, what is the noisy and noisy scene, ten days is too long, Jiang Wanxiu, I will give you five days, you must find out the real culprit." ”
