Chapter 61: Defending Innocence

"Qiu Tian! Are you blind? If such a bastard or shoddy thing comes to my head, do you want me to drag you out and kill you? ”

Seeing this, Fuquan hurriedly appeased the old emperor, "Your Majesty, stop your anger!" ”

"Your Majesty, pay attention to the dragon body!"

"How do you tell me to calm my anger?" The old emperor pushed Fuquan away.

Qiu Tian was not deterred by Emperor Longwei, but looked at the irascible old emperor unusually calmly, "Your Majesty, the courtiers are right!" ”

"That's right?"

"That's right!"

"If you're not wrong, why does the human and physical evidence point to you?" The old emperor was furious and threw chopsticks on Qiu Tian's body, she didn't dodge, her face did not change and said: "There is no excuse for the crime you want to add!" Not to mention ......"

"What's more?" The old emperor gritted his teeth heavily, and the queen was afraid that the old emperor would be angry and make a wrong decision, so she hurriedly shouted: "Qiu Tian! Are you still going to admit your mistake to Your Majesty? ”

"Your Majesty, stop your anger! Your Majesty......"

Qiu Tian looked at the queen who didn't even believe in her with a little disappointment, her brows furrowed, but she still didn't admit it, after all, she thought so, but the "fire phoenix" disappeared before she could cook.

Therefore, she does not admit this pot!

"Your Majesty, if you want to condemn your courtiers, can you let your courtiers defend themselves?"

"Good! I'm going to listen to what you have to say! The old emperor thought that Qiu Tian had changed his heart, but he didn't want the foundation to be bad, those were all illusions before, and he really couldn't help Adou, who lived up to his and the queen's hard work.

"Your Majesty!" Qiu Tian knelt on the ground respectfully at this moment, "Your Majesty, you are a wise and martial son of heaven, and you will definitely look like a torch, and you will not let the villain slander and hurt the royal family, right?" ”

"Inevitably!" The old emperor's cloudy eyes narrowed and looked at Qiu Tian, who didn't know what to fight, "It is a man's responsibility to protect his family, and it is my responsibility to protect the people of the world, not to mention someone who is closely related to the royal family?" ”

"So, Your Majesty will definitely not let the villain succeed and slander the courtiers, right?" Qiu Tian kowtowed deeply, stood up and looked at the old emperor, the relationship was so deep that she was also half of the royal family, after all, the old emperor was his uncle.

"Humph! Qiu Tian, you are so bold that you actually slander Niangniang as a villain! Zhao Er suddenly interrupted Qiu Tian's rhythm, "Someone! Palm! ”

"Er Dare-" The queen changed her gentle and elegant appearance, and looked at Zhao Er coldly, "Now, this palace has seen that the sister under your teaching, Concubine Zhao, is so uneducated, shouting indiscriminately, and giving orders indiscriminately. ”

"Sister Queen, Sister Wai is also Sister Protector." Concubine Zhao couldn't bear it anymore, and directly counterattacked: "Now that the 'Fire Phoenix' is dead and is still being cooked into these dishes for His Majesty to eat, Qiu Tianxin is quite terrifying." ”

"Such a woman, under the evidence of people and materials, still believes in her words, disturbs the audio-visual, and her heart can be punished!" Concubine Zhao suddenly knelt on the ground, pitiful, "Please also ask Your Majesty to administer justice to the concubine!" ”

"Your Majesty! The concubine believes that Qiu Tian will not do such a ridiculous thing, and asks His Majesty to find out and return her innocence! The queen also knelt down with a "poof".

Suddenly, the old emperor looked left and right, and found that one side was his own queen and the other side was his beloved concubine, and the palms and backs of his hands were also meat, and he fell into a dilemma.

Originally, he just used dead things to feed him, but he didn't want to make more and more trouble now, making him dizzy, "Qiu Tian, you have such a great ability, you make my two concubines turn against each other." ”

"Someone! Lock Qiu Tian in the inner court for a few days of reflection, and then release her when the truth is revealed! ”

The queen was stunned for a moment, and shouted in a broken heart: "Your Majesty, no!" Your Majesty......"

Seeing this, the corners of Concubine Zhao's mouth curled slightly, wiped the tears on her face, and got up as the old emperor got up, "Your Majesty, be wise!" ”

"Come on!" The old emperor flicked his sleeves impatiently, and opened Concubine Zhao, who was about to hold his arm, "You also thought about it when I returned to the palace." ”

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Zhao was stunned for a moment, and looked at the figure of the old emperor in confusion, "Your Majesty, why should the concubines be punished?" ”

"Come on, send Concubine Zhao back to the palace, without my order, you can't stop stepping out of the palace gate, and the violator will be decided!" The old emperor gave an order indifferently and ruthlessly, and Concubine Zhao and the others were "invited" out by Fuquan's fathers-in-law.

Concubine Zhao, who was secretly happy, looked at Qiu Tian and the queen together, Concubine Zhao gritted her teeth and "glared" at Qiu Tian unwillingly, and Zhao Er even made a "you wait" mouth shape at her, but Qiu Tian found that the old emperor had no fixed right or wrong, but no one beat them with a cane and told them to keep their mouths shut obediently.

Now she is too busy to take care of herself, and directly ignores the "impact" of Concubine Zhao's two sisters on her, but it is this nothing that makes the two of them hate her by two points.

"Your Majesty! Please spare Xiao Jiu one more time! Your Majesty ......" The empress sincerely knelt in front of the old emperor, and the old emperor flicked his sleeves and broke free of the empress's hand, "Empress, a loving mother is a loser!" If why she was accused of these crimes, wasn't it because she was stubborn before? Now go to the inner court to reflect and wait for the truth to be clarified. ”

"If a courtier is guilty, she is willing to be punished; If the courtiers are not guilty, please ask Your Majesty to return the courtiers' innocence! Qiu Tian disappeared under the banner of "Fire Phoenix", and said frankly: "However, the courtiers have something to ask for. ”

"Say!"

"Courtier, I beg Your Majesty to listen to the courtier's words." Qiu Tian swore to the sky, "I, Qiu Tian, swear to the sky, if this table is made of 'Fire Phoenix', the sky will thunder and split, and there will be no place to die." ”

"Little Jiu!" The queen gasped and looked at Qiu Tian in disbelief.

"Do you think that by swearing a poisonous oath, I will believe that you are innocent and that you will be removed from the inner court?" The old emperor looked at Qiu Tian expressionlessly, but Qiu Tian didn't think about exempting the punishment of the inner court at all, but gave the old emperor a hint in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers know very well that the conflict between the queen mother and Concubine Zhao is unforgivable." Qiu Tian got up and walked to the table, "This table of dishes, the courtiers dare to use the head of the item to guarantee, all of them are made of the three yellow chickens provided by the head of the imperial dining room, this is the evidence that the courtiers prove their innocence, Your Majesty can ask the chief of the imperial dining room to check whether it is a dish made of big yellow chicken." ”

She took a deep breath, gave a reassuring look, and then said: "But Concubine Zhao's words under the control of Grandma Sun and Yinye make the courtiers suspicious. ”

The old emperor followed Qiu Tian's train of thought, but also found some clues, and before he could say anything, Qiu Tian continued: "Your Majesty, the courtier's suspicions are as follows: If the palace people who take care of the 'Fire Phoenix' normally see that the courtiers want to hurt this tribute chicken that is more noble than their own name, will they come out in time to stop it?" ”

"Yes!" The old emperor frowned and realized that this was indeed the case, "What else?" ”

"Second, the master of the silver leaf is Miss Zhao Er, and the master of Mama Sun is Concubine Zhao, why did the two of them wait until His Majesty was eating happily to inform them? Is this really afraid of courtiers? Or was it instigated? The courtier did not know, and asked His Majesty to find out. ”

She watched the old emperor's face become more and more gloomy, and found that her psychological hint had worked, "Third, the courtiers don't admit that a small food box can be used as physical evidence?" ”

"Isn't Your Majesty curious, the food box is used as physical evidence, so isn't the 'Fire Phoenix' the key physical evidence in this case?" She pointed to the bones on the table, "Your Majesty's tongue is a golden tongue that tastes all kinds of delicacies, can you not distinguish the taste of the three yellow chickens from the quality of the meat?" ”

As soon as these words came out, it hit the old emperor's thoughts, he looked down at the bones on the table, and recalled the taste he had just eaten in his mind, indeed as Qiu Tian said, that is the taste of the three yellow chickens, even if how to change the cooking methods and skills or the taste and shape, the taste that belongs to the three yellow chickens themselves is impossible to disappear.

"In the end, the courtiers implore Your Majesty to return the courtiers' innocence, otherwise every time the courtiers cook in the future, they will be accused of bullying the king, and they will never recover." She doesn't want to be convicted of a crime and a trouble when she cooks a dish by herself in the future.

Therefore, this time she not only has to say something, but also teaches a lesson to those in the palace who are about to move: she is not easy to mess with!

She walked up to the queen and held the queen's hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Niangniang, Xiao Jiu is no longer by your side for the time being, you have to eat well, don't starve yourself." ”

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked out of the door of the Luxury Fragrance Palace, followed the internal officials who were waiting for her outside the courtyard, and left the Luxury Fragrance Palace.

Tonight, the queen and Concubine Zhao were completely in the team, and the palace was also turned upside down, and countless news emerged from the palace outside the palace. Tomorrow will inevitably be a difficult situation to solve.

In the General's Mansion, Jiang Chaoye, who was dressed in black clothes, looked at the secret letter in his hand and laughed strangely, "I know that this girl loves to make trouble!" ”

"Shiano, you're still laughing, this girl went to the inner court by herself." Qiu Baitu's face was pale, "This inner court is the most cannibalistic place in the palace that doesn't spit out bones, and it's difficult for her to go in this time without shedding her skin." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Chaoye smiled at the corner of his mouth, tilted his head and looked at Qiu Baitu, "Baitu, do you feel sorry for Xiao Jiu?" ”

"I don't feel sorry for her, I'm just ......" Qiu Baitu looked away, "I'm just ...... I'm afraid that she will lose the face of the queen, and I'm afraid that she will harm our Qiu family. ”

"Oh?" Jiang Chaoye looked at Qiu Baitu, who was not right-hearted, "Since this is the case, then I will not go to court tomorrow when I am sick, and I will be lazy and sleep." ”

"No!" Qiu Baitu got up suddenly, "If you don't go to court and don't inquire, then ......"

"Then ......" Jiang Chaoye smiled and joked: "If you don't say that you are nervous Xiao Jiu, you will not suddenly visit the General's Mansion at night, and you are so sneaky!" ”

He pulled Qiu Baitu's black cloak, "Qiu Baitu impatiently ripped off the clothes in Jiang Chaoye's hand, "Then you can't go to court?" ”

"Up!"

Jiang Chaoye pushed open the window and glanced at the gloomy sky, "Brother Baitu, do you think Xiao Jiu will be bullied in the inner court?" ”

"How not?" Qiu Baitu thought of inquiring about the situation in the inner court, "Cursing and fighting in the inner court are all trivial matters, and some little palace maids often disappear at night, and they are found in the well the next day." ”

"How do you tell me not to worry? This girl is not used to being big or small, she has been spoiled by us since she was a child, not only did she not learn to forbear......" Qiu Baitu thought of the assumption that Qiu Tian was thrown into the well, and his hands were so nervous that they rubbed each other.

"And learn to fight!" Jiang Chaoye recalled the scene where Qiu Tian grafted her foot bones, she not only couldn't bear it, even the painful bone grafting technique was muffled to herself, and she would use her brutality and willfulness as her own disguise, not to win attention, but to care for everyone.

In this way, Qiu Tian, who is smart and clever, and has such excellent hiding skills, can receive a single point of damage in the inner court, and he, Jiang Chaoye, will not let go of those who dare to hurt her.
