Chapter 270: The gains outweigh the losses
"Since Mrs. Han has fallen out of favor, why should adults worry about her anymore? It's better to choose another British ......"
"Bastard!" Feng Luyang slapped the table, "Is Feng that kind of villain?" ”
Chen Ying hurriedly admitted her mistake and retracted what she had just said. But the word has been spoken, how can it be taken back?
Feng Luyang's righteousness just now had disappeared at this time, and he was thinking about who to find as a backer.
Late in the night, Feng Luyang took a carriage and left the drunken tower.
In the shadow of the wall, a man showed half of his face and his eyes were sharp.
Li Yin's house.
"General, Feng Luyang left the Drunken Sky Tower......"
"Stand down! ……”
"Yes."
Ever since Dou Yifang instructed Li Yin to investigate Chen Ying, Li Yin has been sending people to keep an eye on him.
Chen Ying didn't know when he came to the capital, he bought Mochizuki Xuan half a year ago, and then converted it into Zuixiao Tower. It is said that Chen Ying is from Hanzhong County, but it has not yet been verified.
I also know that Chen Ying has a wife, Wang, and it is said that Wang is also from Hanzhong County, which also needs to be verified.
Chen Ying spent a lot of money when she bought Mochizuki Xuan, and it was impossible to find out where the money came from.
Li Yin suddenly discovered that there were many mysteries about this Chen Ying, and now that he learned that Chen Ying and Feng Luyang had a close relationship, Li Yin guessed that there might be something between them.
That night, he wrote down the investigation of the past few days and ordered someone to send it to the palace and hand it over to Dou Yifang.
The next day, Dou Yifang got his letter, and after reading it, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Immediately, she replied with a letter, in which she asked Li Yin to send someone to Baiyun Temple to investigate a Taoist priest named Chen Ying.
Li Yin immediately sent someone to Baiyun Temple after the letter, and four days later he got the news that Chen Ying had gone down the mountain half a year ago......
Royal Palace, Chunyan Pavilion.
Liu Heng came here to accompany Dou Yifang to lunch, and after dinner, the two chatted.
Liu Heng thought that Dou Yifang was really pregnant, so he was very happy, he hoped that Dou Yifang's baby would be a boy, so that there would be a successor to the country's Jiangshan Sheji.
The words were very good, but Dou Yifang didn't take it seriously.
The succession to the throne is a matter of state, and can it be promised to an unborn child?
Dou Yifang only said this when Liu Heng was to make her happy. His kindness can only be appreciated by heart, not forced.
Taking advantage of Liu Heng's happiness, Dou Yifang talked about duckweed.
"When the concubine went to live in Meiziwu, the three of them, Danhe, duckweed, and blue-clothed did not abandon the concubine."
"The concubines were grateful, and promised them that if they would return to the palace one day, they would find them a good family to marry."
"Now that Danhe has been married, duckweed is impatient. The concubine is thinking, can the king fulfill the wish of the concubine? ”
"It's not that difficult, but now that you're pregnant again, who will take care of you when they're gone?"
"Isn't there still a blue coat...... Dou Yifang smiled lightly, "This kid won't marry anything." ”
Liu Heng nodded slowly, "Since you have a promise first, how can this king let you break your word." ”
Dou Yifang hurriedly thanked him.
"Danhe married Li Yin...... In this way, this king will also find a general for duckweed. ”
"King Xie is kind, but duckweed already has someone in his heart......"
Dou Yifang said that duckweed had a childhood sweetheart before entering the palace, and if she left the palace this time, she would go back to find her childhood sweetheart to get married.
"It's not easy for two people to stay together until now, and I hope the king will be fulfilled."
"Alright then, it's up to you!!"
……
After Liu Heng left, Dou Yifang called duckweed into the room and asked her to prepare to leave the palace.
Leaving the palace is salvation for duckweed, so she knelt down and thanked Dou Yifang for her kindness.
is about to be separated from duckweed, Dou Yifang will still be a little sad and relieved.
She also instructed duckweed to get rid of her frizziness in the future, so that she could have a husband and children, and duckweed thanked her and left.
For duckweed's departure, Lan Yi was the most reluctant to give up, and his eyes were red from crying. This sadness may take a while to ease up.
In the afternoon, Li Yin's news reached Dou Yifang, and Dou Yifang could determine that Chen Ying was Chen Ying.
Coupled with the fact that he had a close relationship with Feng Luyang, he couldn't help but think that Baiyunguan Yuzhen, Jade Spirit poisoning and Chen Ying were related.
However, it has been so long since the matter has passed, and it is not easy to turn it over, unless it can attract Liu Heng's attention.
But you can't go and talk to Liu Heng directly.
What to do?
Dou Yifang's eyes turned to the west, it was the kitchen of Chunyan Pavilion, and there was a small room next to the kitchen, in which some firewood and coal were placed.
There is still one person locked up - Cao Mao.
Cao Mao has been locked up for two days, during which Dou Yifang ordered him to only drink water. Now he was exhausted from hunger, his limbs were weak, and his eyes were dizzy.
The door suddenly opened, and the light came in.
Cao Mao, who was in this small dark room, only felt dazzling, but he tried his best to see who it was.
The palace people put a chair on the open space, and the blue clothes helped Dou Yifang to walk in, and let Dou Yifang sit down!!
Cao Mao immediately crawled over, kowtowed and pleaded guilty, and burst into tears.
"Madame spares her life, the slave knows that she is wrong...... Madame Kai En Na ......"
Dou Yifang looked at him coldly and wagged his tail like a dog begging for mercy, there was no sympathy in his heart, and he was not worthy of sympathy for the betrayer at all.
"If you knew today, why bother in the first place."
"The slave really knows that he is wrong, and begs his wife to spare his life......"
"You can also ......be spared," Dou Yifang said, "As long as you do one thing in this palace, if you do a good job, this palace will spare you." Otherwise, you'll never want to see the blue sky and white clouds again. ”
"Madame is an official, and the slave will do it."
"This palace wants you to testify against Mrs. Han......"
Listening to Dou Yifang's words, Cao Mao was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and his face was pale.
What Dou Yifang asked him to do was too dangerous, maybe his own life would be in danger, so he didn't dare.
"Madame, spare your life! Minion...... Slave ......" Cao Mao's tears rained down, choking and making a sound.
"Why, don't you dare?" Dou Yifang sneered, "Afraid of death? ”
Cao Mao nodded.
"It's right to be afraid of death, the huge palace, no one will pay attention to one less minion, don't you say?"
Dou Yifang's words were full of threats, if Cao Mao didn't listen, he might die here now.
If he does what Dou Yifang wants, there may be a glimmer of life. He wanted to live, so he could only follow Dou Yifang's orders.
It was already late at night, and Liu Heng had already gone to bed. But at this time, Wanquan walked in and woke Liu Heng up through the curtain.
"What's going on?" Liu Heng woke up, rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked.
"Something happened to Mrs. Dou......" Wanquan replied.
Liu Heng was startled, completely woke up, immediately got up, put on shoes and changed clothes, and prepared to drive to Chunyan Pavilion.
"It's so late, the lights are still on in Chunyan Pavilion, is something wrong?" In the Autumn Tea Pavilion, Zhang Hanyan, who was standing on the verandah of the attic, thought to himself.
In the room, Xiaoyu was lying on the table and falling asleep.
In order to find out, Zhang Hanyan returned to the house, carried Xiaoyu to her bed, took off her clothes, and changed herself.
combed the maid's hair in a bun again, and slipped out of the boudoir and went to the Chunyan Pavilion.
Liu Heng came to Chunyan Pavilion and walked into the main hall, only to see a group of palace people standing in the hall, a person kneeling on the ground, and Dou Yifang sitting in front of that person.
When everyone saw Liu Heng coming, they knelt down together, and Dou Yifang also got up to greet him.
Liu Heng went up to hold her hand and asked with concern: "This king heard that something happened to you, so he rushed over, what happened?" ”
Dou Yifang's heart was warm, and he said with a smile, "The concubine is fine, it is this slave who has something." ”
Liu Heng looked at Cao Mao, who was kneeling on the ground, but saw that he was full of alcohol, and his body kept trembling.
"What's going on?" Liu Heng asked.
"The king spares his life...... The king spares his life...... Cao Mao kowtowed like garlic.
"The king asks you!" Wan Quan reprimanded.
Cao Mao seemed to be frightened stupid, but kept saying spare his life. Dou Yifang looked at Yang Shu, another palace person, and asked him to come out and explain.
Yang Shu stood up and knelt down and saluted. Liu Heng saw that his face was hot, and he also knew that he was a person who had just drunk.
"Just now, the minion was drinking with this man. Maybe it was because he drank too much, but the guy said something to the minion, and the servant felt that it was important, so he told the lady......"
Liu Heng looked at Dou Yifang, only to see Dou Yifang nodding with a serious expression.
"What the hell is going on?" Liu Heng asked Yang Shu.
Yang Shu said: "Cao Mao said, those ...... about Mrs. in the past"
Yang Shu glanced at Dou Yifang and didn't dare to say it. Dou Yifang nodded at him, signaling not to have scruples and tell the matter.
He continued: "The previous gossip about Madame in Baiyun Temple was actually planned by Madame Han......
What is the gossip, Liu Heng immediately thought of Dou Yifang and Yu Nianchu, so his face became very ugly.
"What proof do you have for that?"
"It was Cao Mao who said it after drinking, and after Mrs. left the palace, Cao Mao went to Mrs. Han to serve."
Liu Heng's eyes fell on Cao Mao and asked, "What did the Han family say?" ”
Cao Mao hesitated for a moment, and tremblingly told how Mrs. Han created rumors and how she joined forces with outsiders to slander Dou Yifang......
Cao Mao said all kinds of things, in fact, he didn't hear it from Mrs. Han at all, but asked him to say it in Dou Yifang just now.
This is what Dou Yifang told him to do - "frame" Mrs. Han.
But it's not a frame-up, because Mrs. Han really did it. It's just that Dou Yifang has no evidence in his hands, so he can only make this decision.
She was able to think of this "next step", thanks to Liu Heng not long ago to find a fake Baiyun Temple Taoist priest to give false testimony.
Dou Yifang asked Cao Cao Mao and Yang Shu to drink some wine, and asked him to make him look like he was drunk and gaffe, so as to increase his credibility.
Seeing that Liu Heng had been holding back his anger, he knew that he had believed Cao Mao's words.
"Madame Han was worried that Madame would become the queen, so she asked her to be kicked out of the palace...... Cao Mao finally said.
"Damn! Disgusting! Anger finally broke out, "How can there be room in the palace for such a despicable and treacherous person as her!" ”
"The king is angry, take care of the dragon's body......" Wanquan persuaded.
Dou Yifang gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, and she didn't have to say anything at this time.
