Chapter 47: Yang Leyu goes down to the dungeon
Feng Bao sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked the little eunuchs to dig the soil.
The little eunuchs are also afraid, but where are they hiding? I had to loosen the dirt under the tree and carry out a female corpse.
The female corpse had just died, and there was nothing but a pale face and a stiff body, but there was a ring of blue-purple strangulation marks on her neck.
Feng Bao pinched his nose and took a closer look, and then collapsed on the ground: "Dong ...... Dong Taiji! β
Yang Leyu's eyes were shocked, how could it be Mrs. Dong?!
She looked at her with fear, and it was really her.
Gan Tang half-covered his eyes and didn't dare to look, "Concubine...... How could Mrs. Dong die in our palace? β
Yanzi's mouth didn't open the door, and he immediately said: "It won't be Concubine Yu's revenge, right?" β
"Bastard!" Feng Bao slapped him, "How dare you tarnish the name of the concubine?!" Why don't you get this body out and give it to you for examination! β
Yanzi knelt down, kowtowed again and again to make amends, and then moved the body out of Leyi Palace.
Feng Baoqiang held up his mixed emotions and waved his hand at Yang Leyu: "It's okay for the slave and maid to discipline it, it disturbs the concubine, the slave and maid don't mean to suspect the concubine!" β
"It doesn't matter." Yang Leyu forced herself to calm down and think about this strange thing. Dong Ji's death was too abrupt, someone must have made a hindrance from it, strangled her to death and threw her into his palace to frame herself.
Pity Dong Ji, at the same age as a flower, she will be used after death.
Dong Taiji's death soon spread throughout the palace, and Feng Bao's wedding ceremony could not be completed, so he sat at the door of the hospital in a daze.
The work efficiency was very high, and he concluded on the spot: Dong Ji was strangled by a thin hemp rope and suffocated to death, and the time of dying was probably on the second watch last night.
Feng Bao finally found a companion, but he died before he could get started, and he was so angry that he was bound to find out the murderer.
At this time, the Queen Mother also knew the news. She put down her lightly twisted beads and stood up from the futon.
Nie Qing is a maid who has been taking care of the queen mother's diet and daily life, thinking that the queen mother finished chanting and handed her the tea.
said: "The heart of the Queen Mother is admired by the slaves and maids, and you have cultivated such a good blessing, which is incomparable to Mrs. Dong." β
The Queen Mother sipped tea, "The mourning family already knew that Dong Ji's child was fake, and it would be strange if she could get pregnant." β
Nie Qing was puzzled: "What does the Queen Mother mean by this?" β
The Empress Dowager put down the teacup and reflected her face in the bronze mirror, "Nie Qing, do you think the mourning family is still beautiful?" β
Nie Qing looked at the person in the mirror and nodded. She has no flattery, although the queen mother is over forty years old, she still has a long charm and is considered a beauty.
The queen mother sneered: "Half of the mourning family has been spent within this palace wall, if the first emperor fights, he can let the mourning family have a child......" She swallowed her words and said astringently: "That's it, Dong Ji's death just made a wedding dress for the mourning family." β
Nie Qing: "The Queen Mother, please command." β
The Queen Mother said, "It's time to clean up that woman." Gather the Feng guards of the mourning family and go to Leyi Palace to go around. β
The Wind Guard is a Praetorian Guard dedicated to guarding the Empress, and the soldiers are all women, and Nie Qing is the leader of this guard. In accordance with Yi's order, she led the 100th soldier to Leyi Palace.
Shan Hai had just finished sweeping the yard and replaced the soil under the locust tree with new soil, and saw a lot of soldiers coming from a distance, and hurriedly told Yang Leyu.
Yang Leyu was frightened and always had no appetite, and just felt hungry at this time, and was still eating almond tofu, when he saw Nie Qing leading the Feng Guards to break in and surround the dormitory.
Yang Leyu probably expected what they were here for, she was not afraid of the shadows, her face did not change, and she was still eating.
Nie Qing strode closer and overturned the bowl of almond tofu with one hand.
Gan Tang was shocked: "Presumptuous! How dare you be disrespectful to the concubine! β
Yang Leyu frowned and looked at her, "The girl is here to find fault." β
Nie Qing hugged his fists and said, "Please let the concubine Niangniang go into the dungeon with the slave maid." β
Yang Leyu: "What if I don't go?" β
Nie Qing's eyes flashed, and she raised her hand to signal the female soldiers behind her to set her up.
Several female soldiers were ordered, and Yang Leyu was picked up from her seat left and right. Yang Leyu's ankles were still swollen, and she couldn't walk at all, so she had to be coerced by them.
Gan Tang panicked: "My concubine didn't harm anyone!" She gave the mountains and seas outside a look, "Hurry up and find Your Majesty!" β
The mountains and seas were about to run, but they were stunned by Nie Qing's palm, and looked back at Gan Tang sharply: "Who dares to run?!" β
Yang Leyu was wronged by nothing, but now that Gan Tang and Shanhai were involved, he was immediately annoyed: "Don't hurt them!" What you have to do, I will accompany you to the end. β
Nie Qing: "The slave maid is also acting on orders, and when she enters the dungeon, she has her own good food and food waiting for her mother." β
.
The dungeon was dimly lit, and the smell of blood and rancid was everywhere. The black rat is bigger than a slap, and occasionally squirts through the corners, which is offensive.
Yang Leyu was taken to the cell by Nie Qing, and the cell was placed on both sides, and there were about seven or eight people on her side, covered in blood and dirty, lying crookedly on the straw mustard mat.
Nie Qing pushed her forward brutally, and her center of gravity fell to the ground unsteadily, touching her ankle, and she snorted in unbearable pain.
Nie Qing didn't pay attention to it, "The concubine is here for a long time, and the queen mother will come to interrogate you when she is free." β
After that, he left.
Yang Leyu curled up her legs, covered her swollen ankles and rubbed them gently, thinking that the Queen Mother had something to do, just to dry her and make her suffer.
At that time, a dirty old man next to him grabbed his messy hair, pinched a lice and threw it at Yang Leyu.
Yang Leyu screamed in surprise and hurriedly hid to the side.
The dirty old man smiled: "Haha, silly girl, don't be dirty!" If you've been here for a long time, you'll know that lice are a good thing. β
Yang Leyu wondered: "What do you say?" β
Dirty old man: "Lice mean you're alive!" Like those who are rotting and dying, they don't have lice, they grow maggots! β
Yang Leyu retched when she heard those two words, this place was really difficult, and she didn't know if she could get through.
Suddenly, there was the sound of gongs in the corridor, and all the prisoners crowded to the outer edge as if they had heard an order, and stretched out their hands to scratch around.
Yang Leyu: "Grandpa, what are they wanting?" β
The dirty old man said: "It's time to eat, the first thing I got was last night's leftovers, and the later ones could only eat the rancid rice from the night before." β
Sure enough, the cell boss and a few jailers came with pantothenic food and threw it into the empty bowl as if feeding the pigs.
I don't know if Nie Qing specially instructed him to make things difficult for himself, but Yang Leyu got moldy steamed buns, and he couldn't even pick out a good place.
The dirty old man scooped a mouthful of porridge and drank, "If you don't eat it, give it to me, don't waste it." β
Yang Leyu was really hard to swallow, so he gave it to him.
"Xiao Yu'er!" A familiar voice came to my earsβ
Yang Leyu raised his eyes and looked, and Mu Qinghong came over with a food box.
"Qinghong?" Yang Leyu was surprised, "How do you know I'm here?" β
