Chapter 1449: Key Witnesses
"Aifei, get up first." Guo Shijie asked the palace maid next to her to help her up, and asked someone to pour her a cup of tea to suppress her shock.
Looking at Guo Shijie's expressionless face, Tang Zining's heart beat faster, picked up the cup and drank tea slowly.
"You, look up." Guo Shijie looked at the kneeling palace maid and said coldly.
The moment the palace maid raised her head, Tang Zining's teacup slipped out of her hand, and the hot tea splashed on her clothes, but she didn't feel any pain at all, some, just panicked.
This palace maid is the dewdrop.
"So it's you?" Guo Shijie was very impressed with the dewdrops, not for anything else, just because she was four points similar to Mu Youluo, so he was deeply impressed by her.
"Your Majesty, what the slave said is the truth, and please ask the emperor to learn from it."
"There is no evidence, do you have evidence?"
"The slave has a witness."
"Oh~ bring it up."
At this time, two palace maids were brought to the palace, one of them had dark eyes, like a black night sky, with bursts of aura, long eyelashes, constantly beating, very beautiful.
It's a pity that with such a pair of good-looking eyes, the face is extraordinary.
"What do you all see?" Guo Shijie asked directly.
"Back to the emperor, the slaves and maids originally went out to visit relatives, and when they came back, they saw Tang Concubine Niangniang bringing back two women from outside the palace, originally I thought they were Niangniang's friends or maids brought back from home, so I didn't think much about it."
"The slave and the dew were friends, and then the slave and the maid came to visit the dewdrop, and never saw the two women, and even heard the screams, at first the slave and the maid thought it was auditory hallucinations, but later, in the middle of the night, they could hear the screams, so scary."
"Then one day, the slaves and maids came to look for the dewdrops, and found that the dewdrops were not there, so they had to go back, because the slaves and maids came secretly, naturally they could not go out of the gate with great fanfare, so they had to go out of the small door, but they saw someone dragging two women who were covered in scaly wounds and covered in blood out of the door, because of curiosity, the slaves and maids followed all the way, and found that the eunuchs sent people directly to the Taihe Palace, and just about to leave, they saw the dew hiding next to them."
The two palace maids told all the things they saw, Guo Shijie was still expressionless after listening to it, and Tang Zining, his whole face was as pale as paper, his hands were clenched into fists, and his nails were unknowable when his palms were cut.
"Concubine Tang, what they said is true?" Guo Shijie looked at Tang Zining, picked up a cup of tea and drank it.
"Your Majesty, concubine...... The concubines are wronged, they are talking nonsense, the emperor must believe the concubines! ”
"I naturally believe you, but what they say, I have to think about it more, come here, go and check for me."
"Your Majesty? Didn't you say you believed in concubines? ”
"Of course I believe you, but these three palace maids are openly and secretly saying that you have arrested people and tortured people, I don't believe them, but I also want to return your innocence, if you don't do this kind of thing, I will naturally punish them severely and give Concubine Ai a fair and just result."
"Besides, the women mentioned by these three palace maids are related to the more than ten eunuchs who were killed, and their lives are at stake, how can they not be investigated?" After Guo Shijie finished speaking, he got up and prepared to leave, and ordered the commander of the Royal Forest Army to come in with the three palace maids.
Guo Shijie said that he would take three palace maids to interrogate and cooperate with the investigation, but in fact, he really wanted to protect the three people, after all, the three of them are human witnesses and key figures in the whole case, and there can be no mistakes.
