Chapter 356: Behind the Trade-offs
Grace and temptation, the Queen Mother's two-pronged approach is really commonplace, which makes Eleven Niang accustomed to it.
The current situation, even if others are unwilling, they should also say that they are not to blame in the past, so that they can be regarded as showing their loyalty to the Queen Mother, but Eleven Niang does not think so, for this time she is in a violent room, she has always been panicked and uneasy, and even once feared the court because of "nightmares", and then was forced by her relatives to return to danger, which can be described as physically and mentally exhausted, this is not an eleven or two-year-old girl can easily let go of all the worthless experiences, if she is too generous, is it not hypocritical? It is equivalent to telling the Queen Mother - the grace service is invalid, I don't believe that you regard me as your own granddaughter, in your eyes, it is obvious that the second concubine Xie and Yuan are more important.
"The Queen Mother asked, and if it was finally found out that it was really Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian who intended to frame Eleven, I implored the Queen Mother to punish the mastermind, but Eleven believed that the small punishment called by the Queen Mother would be able to achieve the effect of the Great Commandment."
This is the refusal to let go of the case in a daze, and insisting on finding out who is behind the frame.
"What's so difficult about this, the Queen Mother only needs to interrogate Qiao Jiao, I believe that under the severe punishment, the palace maid will inevitably confess truthfully." Concubine Shu clung to Qiao Jiao's flaw in an attempt to prove her own point of view.
"The Queen Mother must not believe the Xie family's sophistry, although Qiao Jiao did buy the palace maid to sow discord, wouldn't this be able to prove that the Xie family was bent on being angry with his niece, and bribed Ye Tingcheng to frame Eleven Niang?" Concubine Xian was pressed by Concubine Shu, but she suddenly understood as if she had been empowered, and simply confessed her guilt and used it as supporting evidence - even Ye Tingcheng couldn't withstand torture to confess Xie Shi, where did Qiao Jiao have iron teeth? It's better to take the initiative to admit: "Eleven Niang, Qiao Jiao has a personal grudge against you, and it has always been her own initiative to pick right and wrong, and I only found out afterwards, I have already scolded her, and I never thought that Xie would be so vicious, intending to ruin your face and harm you for life." ”
The Queen Mother really didn't care about Eleven Niang's "baht must be compared", but thought that the little girl was already really dependent on herself at this time, but she was very annoyed that Concubine Xian was not relenting this time, and she could easily reveal what everyone was happy about, but she wanted to bite Concubine Shu and not let go.
"Since Concubine Xian has already admitted it, there is no need for me to retry it." The Queen Mother slowly spoke: "Fortunately, Eleven Niang is not a big problem, otherwise the palace maid will never have physiology, Qiao Jiao violated the palace rules, and should be punished by the court, and 30 days of hard labor, the virtuous concubine also has the fault of covering up and conniving, grounded for a month, and must be strictly restrained in the future. ”
"The Queen Mother Shengming, eleventh thanks to the Queen Mother for presiding over justice." Eleven Niang naturally accepts it when she sees it.
"Okay, this case is over, don't mention it again in the future."
Seeing that the Queen Mother was about to get up after judging the case in a few words, Concubine Shu let out a long breath of relief, although she resented the Yuan family, but she also understood that it would be more detrimental to herself if she continued to entangle, it was not too late for the gentleman to take revenge for ten years, Yuan, I will swear to you in the future, let's see!
It was Concubine Xian who was anxious: "Queen Mother, although the concubine has had it, it is ...... compared to the Xie family's crimes."
"Yuan." The Son of Heaven, who had been silent for a while, slowly opened his mouth at this moment: "You are wrong to blame your mother this time, your mother's evasion is to let the Xie family show her feet, the Xie family has always been arrogant and domineering, if you are really wronged this time, how can you only be punished by grounding?" You want to put her to death, how can she let her go so easily? Now that he doesn't say a word, he doesn't even shout a word of wrongdoing, isn't it a weak heart, but what is it? ”
He Yan is so "sharp"? Even Eleven Niang was impressed with him this time.
The Queen Mother's body was completely stiff, she didn't get up or sit, her face changed for a while before she spoke, but her tone no longer had an understatement of leisure: "Doesn't the Holy One remember the admonition of the day for his mother, this matter should not be made public, the sooner it calms down, the better it is for ......"
"Slandering the queen, the crime should be put to death, this is a strict imperial decree that I have repeatedly reclaimed, and now...... One of the Xie and Yuan clans must have violated the imperial order, and the affairs of the harem have always been in charge of the mother, so I can rest assured that the mother will be examined, but ! The son does not intend to forgive the main sin, and I believe that my mother will not shield and condone those who violate my imperial decrees, I am still the king, and if the imperial decrees can be violated...... I don't have the shame to sit on this dragon chair anymore, so I can simply raise the sage as the king by the princes of the civil and military ministers! ”
He Yan's inch-inch-inch-inch-not made the Queen Mother even more angry, but she also understood that this accident didn't seem to be good, Leng Xun's eyes swept over Xie and Yuan Er's bodies, who were still kneeling on the ground, and got up and said: "The Holy Lord must be strictly investigated, naturally he can't be rash, Xie and Yuan Erfei will be banned in the dormitory from now on, and after I personally interrogate them, they will be guilty of violating the imperial decree...... Handed over to the Holy Authority. ”
The Queen Mother brushed her sleeves away, and the second concubine was disgraced, and it seemed that she had only reacted to it now, and whether she was guilty or not was decided by the Queen Mother's words, and the so-called evidence was of no use at all.
Eleven Niang naturally followed the Queen Mother, and she was particularly worried: "Queen Mother, is there anything wrong with Eleven's words?" Although Eleven hates that someone behind him is framed for personal reasons, he ...... I really didn't expect to cause such a big turmoil, as the Queen Mother said, Eleven is not a big problem, and I really can't bear it and don't dare to ...... To the two nobles to be punished so severely by the Holy Lord. ”
After returning to the Hanxiang Palace, the Queen Mother was still frosty, but at this time, she tried to calm her tone, and took Eleven Niang's hand comfortingly and patted it gently: "It has nothing to do with you, the palace has always been sinister, don't look at the glory and magnificence of this golden wall, one wrong step is a catastrophe!" But some people are unwilling to be satisfied with honor, and follow the example of the snake swallowing the elephant, which is to blame. ”
When Eleven Niang heard the Queen Mother's words, she obviously had made a choice, but she didn't know which one of the two concubines it was, of course she wouldn't ask because she was in a hurry to know the result, but was silent thoughtfully.
"Dou Fu'an, find out for me how many people are involved in this incident!" The Queen Mother decisively ordered.
Although the Queen Mother did not explain the words in front of Eleven Niang, how could Dou Fu'an, who was the queen mother's belly, not know whether this was to find out whether Yuan Dezhi was involved, so even Eleven Niang knew it, and it turned out that she was afraid that the virtuous concubine was going to carry the black pot, but the Queen Mother followed with another sentence: "Edict Xie Xiang Xiang." ”
The abandoned son is a concubine!
Eleven Niang was shocked in her heart, the Queen Mother clearly suspected that Yuan Dezhi was fueling the troubles, but she still did not hesitate to push Concubine Xie out to death, and even did not wait for Dou Fu'an to find out the result, of course, this is not because Concubine Xie is the mastermind of the slander bill, the words of the Son of Heaven today are clear, he does not intend to pursue the truth, as long as one of Xie and Yuan is killed, this slander bill can be quelled!
It seems that his hunch is really right, not to talk about intimacy, just to talk about the severity, Yuan Dezhi's position in the heart of the Queen Mother not only surpasses Mao Wei, but even better than Xie Raoping! It's no wonder that Yuan Dezhi can suddenly go from a small official to a local governor, and he is even expected to pay homage to the prime minister in the political hall after a few years!
This is by no means just because Yuan Dezhi is so simple as a member of Mao Wei's party.
Yuan Dezhi must have made great contributions, so what is it?
When Eleven Niang lowered her eyes, her gaze suddenly became cold.
I don't know what the Queen Mother and Xie Raoping said, Eleven Niangren was under the eaves of the porch, and I saw that Xie Raoping left the political room with a face like cold iron but no resentment, as she expected in advance, with this Geng Geng's loyalty to the Queen Mother, he would not be separated from the Queen Mother because of a niece who took the blame, but would he have a grudge against the Yuan brothers, the initiators? Although Concubine Xie is just an insignificant existence in the family for Xie Raoping, after all, she was bullied in front of her this time, which is equivalent to being slapped in the face by Yuan Dezhi, which is also a strange insult, and what kind of attitude will Mao Wei, who is sandwiched between Yuan Dezhi and Xie Raoping, have?
Loyal Xie Daxiangguo, it seems that you are probably going to become a lonely minister, the road of a lonely minister is not something ordinary people dare to take, take care, don't wait for me to avenge the death of the clan, you have fallen under your own sword and become another pathetic outcast!
Eleven Niang secretly watched Xie Raoping's unwavering steps with an almost mournful gaze, and smiled slightly at the corner of her lips.
Xie is a concubine in the end, I believe that the Queen Mother will not be ruthless enough to abolish her Ming Zhengcanon first and then kill, the face of the Jingzhao Xie family still needs to be preserved, if Xie Raoping is defeated at this time, it will not be of any benefit to the Queen Mother, and He Yan's insistence is probably only limited to the death of the Xie family to vent his anger, and even the cowardly people who can hand over the military talisman without hesitation will not think that they can take advantage of this opportunity to completely cut off the enemy's arm, because that is tantamount to openly opposing the Queen Mother, according to He Yan's foolishness, he can't do this.
Eleven Niang looked at the council room not far away, restrained her smile and slowly approached, she wanted to take the initiative to ask for her life, on the Huangquan Road, to send the deceased a ride.
