Chapter 67: Face to Face & Face to Face Confrontation
"Tsk, this dignity can also be favored and promoted?" Li Xiang recognized the person, and the original indifferent mockery turned into obvious disdain, "It's a pity that I can't live." ”
Hearing this, the indifference on the face of the (female official) finally collapsed, and she suddenly looked up at Li Xiang, unable to tell whether she was shocked or afraid, and took half a step back.
Li Xiang looked at Ren Wanying's outfit for a while, and he didn't know whether he was preparing to dance or sing a big play, and when he turned his head, he happened to see the three products next to the concubine, the female official with the highest official position in the concubine's palace, who was shocked in the eyes.
A friendly smile was unlikely, Li Xiang felt that it was more terrifying than what she was now, so she simply turned her head and continued to look at Ren Wanying, who was wearing heavy makeup.
"Sakura Niangniang, this kind of red and green color, you have to look good when you look good, you are like this, Erchen almost didn't recognize it!"
Li Xiang found a stool from behind the gauze curtain, sat not far from Ren Wanying, looked up and down I don't know how many times, and finally withdrew his gaze when Ren Wanying couldn't help crying, and turned to look at the female official.
"Aunt Ren, if you have anything to ask, hurry up and ask, maybe this palace will change its mind later." Li Xiang flicked the long tassel on his hairpin, glanced at the female official, and the posture and the content of the speech were completely two different things, but they were the same arrogance.
I never felt that the errand was so difficult, my lips opened and closed, and it took me a long time to remember what to ask.
"Sakura said that the princess once looked for her and asked her for something."
Li Xiang raised his eyes and looked at it, it seemed that the female official was weaker than her, and reminded with compassion: "Don't ask me, ask her, you want to ask, where is the leakage of the palace and then add." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ren Wanying cried even more, the female officer was stunned for a moment, stopped Ren Wanying's movements, stared at Li Xiang for a moment, and really made a "confession" to Ren Wanying according to what Li Xiang said.
It's all come to this point, what else is there to ask, the concubine asked the female official to "invite" her to come, and if she didn't see the concubine first, there must be ironclad evidence, otherwise, the concubine can't do this, in the final analysis, Li Xiang is also her daughter-in-law, or a daughter-in-law with a good family background, nothing else, the concubine and the concubine have been fighting for so many years, it's nothing more than that they can't help each other, and now the son of the concubine has become the prince and gradually has his own power, and the two of them can still maintain this balance, Li Xiang felt that he had made a lot of contributions.
The female officer was methodical, asking and answering, which sounded like a thing.
The matter is very simple, Li Xiang is suspected of bribing Ren Wanying and investigating several people privately.
But it is also very complicated, in the Xiangqi Palace, which is in prison, its concubine helps the down-and-out palace concubine compete for favor, and has handed a lot of things from outside the palace to the inside, not to mention, but also let people check the queen and the fourth concubine.
At the very least, it is Li Xiang who wants to harm the queen, and at the big level, it is that the Xiangqi Mansion is going to rebel.
In fact, any of them are great events, no matter how you say it, it is enough for Li Xiang to drink a pot, and in front of ironclad evidence, no one can save her.
Li Xiang felt that this female official was thinking about it, and it was all written on her face.
The only problem is that Li Xiang doesn't quite understand that this matter has come to this point, and it is the queen who is actually implicated.
And Ren Wanying was probably tired of crying, there was no sound at this time, and the three of them were almost two feet away, and they were a little too quiet.
"Does the princess have any objections?"
"Not really."
The female officer choked for a moment, probably never seen such a fearless "prisoner" looked at Li Xiang a few times, frowned, went out and closed the door, and left a sentence before leaving: "Please think about yourself yourself." ”
This sentence of "meditating on one's own mistakes" sounds more like "confronting oneself face to face", but unfortunately Li Xiang looked around, and had no intention of confronting Ren Wanying face-to-face, but Ren Wanying, who was sucking and matching, seemed to be thinking about his own mistakes.
"How was it discovered?"
As soon as she spoke, Ren Wanying trembled, but she didn't plan to say anything, hugged her arms, and secretly "thought about it".
"When did you move into the palace? What does the emperor mean or does the concubine mean? ”
"The concubine punished you?"
"Who else knows about this?"
None of Li Xiang's series of questions were answered, and the one who was asked kept his head down from beginning to end, if she hadn't opened her mouth when the female official asked just now, Li Xiang would have thought that Ren Wanying was poisoned and dumb by the concubine.
"Are you done crying?" Li Xiang was impetuous when he heard this, "I didn't force you, didn't you do it yourself?" ”
Someone who was crying froze, then raised his head and said quickly and urgently: "It's you!" It's the plum garden that asked! It's what you want to look for! ”
Ren Wanying's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, mixed with faded makeup and exaggerated clothes, looking funny and pitiful.
"It's me." Li Xiang took out a handkerchief, took a few steps forward, and handed it to Ren Wanying, "So, can you answer my previous question now?" ”
"After all, I have confessed, and I will not punish you if I want to punish you."
Ren Wanying's hand that had just stretched out touched the handkerchief, and she retracted it, lowering her head again and not speaking.
"I don't have any friendship with you, I will send you medicine to treat your illness, and you will tell me the reason why Meiyuan has become a forbidden place. It's just, why is the queen implicated? Li Xiang stretched out her hand for a long time, but Ren Wanying didn't take the handkerchief now, and as soon as her hand was raised, the handkerchief hit her head directly.
"Since you won't tell me anything, then don't expect me to save you, just do it yourself." Li Xiang stood next to him, he could only see the top of Ren Wanying's head who was sitting, and he refused to say anything, but he cried very hard, obviously from beginning to end she wanted Ren Wanying to check only Mei Yuan, including a few palace maids there, God knows why Ren Wanying went to the queen, and now she was caught by the concubine.
When it came to the female officer's mouth, it changed again, and people heard it in a fog.
Li Xiang didn't have time to watch people cry, so he turned around and was about to leave, but his sleeve was pulled.
Looking down at his arm, Li Xiang pulled out his sleeve, "I won't let you take the blame." ”
Ren Wanying blinked very slowly.
"But the chaise will." Li Xiang walked out, and Ren Wanying, who was stunned by this sentence, jumped down from the chair and pulled Li Xiang's skirt.
"You said you wouldn't leave me alone after the East Window incident!"
"If you don't say anything, how can I care about you? I don't even know how to take your guilt. Li Xiang couldn't move away, but he looked away, "In the end, I am also the daughter-in-law of the concubine, this is Chaogui Palace, Mo said that it is not as the female official said, even if there is, she will help me cover it up, but this matter always needs to be concluded." ”
Ren Wanying may not be smart, but she is definitely not a fool, when the concubine caught her, she already knew what Li Xiang said, nine times out of ten she will be guilty, the only way is to make a big deal about it, and then she will not be able to settle the matter, but she was moved into the Chaogui Palace at that time, and she couldn't even get out of the door of the side hall, not to mention, that is like that, Li Xiang will not die, but she will definitely not live.
However, what does Li Xiang mean now......
I said...... Don't go......" Ren Wanying wiped her tears, tilted her head, and pleaded a little.
