Chapter II: Self-Help
Jade Rainbow Xuan.
Jin Guiren was originally the daughter of Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, and in the five years since she entered the palace, she has not given birth to a son and a half daughter, and her status is like a junior who has not succeeded in the upper position, with fame and fortune, but not much; Pampering is sometimes there, but not strong.
"Your lord, as soon as the slave heard what the dead girl said, she hurried over. Estimating the footsteps, Ai Xiang is also about to arrive at Jingren Palace......" Mama Li said with a look on the noble Jin.
"So fast?" Caifeng was a little impatient and surprised.
Mama Li seemed to realize that she had discovered something terrible, and she was even more energetic, "That's not it, Ai Xiang said that she would report to the queen mother immediately!" Girl, you also know the queen's temperament, if you find anything unfair, you have to go online! ”
Mama Li stared at the noble Jin with a slightly flattering expression, and said: "The old slave has always been concerned about the noble, if the noble person is in need, the old slave will not hesitate to go to the soup!" ”
Jin Guiren, who had never spoken, looked at Mama Li coldly with a look in his eyes, "It is a fact that Sheng Yi poisoned Qi Guiren because of personal grudges, what does it have to do with me?" And what do you need to deal with? These few words of yours alone are a sin of falsehood! ”
Mama Li trembled all over, her legs were soft and she knelt on the ground, knocked her head, and said with a handful of snot and tears: "The old slave is talking nonsense, the old slave is old and confused, and I hope that the noble master will not remember the villain and spare the old slave's life." ”
Jin Guiren really couldn't stand Mama Li's noise, and besides, it was not appropriate to be too ostentatious at this time, so he spit out impatiently: "It's okay, don't dangle in front of my eyes, get out!" ”
Mama Li crawled away as if she had been amnesty.
Glancing back at the plaque of [Yuhongxuan], Mama Li took a sip fiercely, but she didn't expect to get any benefits, and she was treated like this, "Wait and see!" ”
As soon as Mama Li stepped out of Yuhongxuan on the front foot, Caifeng quickly closed the door, turned around and knelt in front of the Jin nobleman nervously, and said with a nervous expression: "Nobleman, this grand intention won't find anything, right?" ”
It's okay not to mention this, Jin Guiren raised his hand without mercy and directly slapped Caifeng, and Caifeng's eyes were full of gold stars, swaying, standing unsteadily, gritting his teeth and saying, "Do you still have the face to say?" If it weren't for the adulteration of the powder you prepared, would I have been so passive? ”
Caifeng covered her hot face, and said in a weak tone: "Nobleman-nobleman, you want to help the slave maid, the slave and maid don't know that the medicine powder is fake, besides, the slave and maid are also acting on orders." ”
At the end, the words "acting as ordered" were spoken, and Caifeng's voice gradually became smaller......
Jin Guiren's eyebrows moved, knowing that Caifeng was threatening her, her eyes suppressed the rising killing intent, and said slightly, "What? Threaten me? ”
Where did Caifeng think so much, and tightly grabbed the corners of Jin Guiren's clothes, as if grasping the only life-saving straw, and begged for mercy in a daze: "The slave doesn't dare!" The only hope for the slave and the maid is you, the master, and you must protect the slave and the maid. ”
Jin Guiren understood what it was for a dog to jump over the wall, so he had to appease Caifeng first, thinking that when the matter was over, he would teach her a good lesson, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to never have trouble, don't do it endlessly, and take advantage of the fact that the queen hasn't found anything yet, and directly solve the shengyi!" ”
Caifeng was shocked.
Jin Guiren looked at Caifeng, who was paralyzed to the ground in fright, and hated that iron could not become steel and said: "If she really sees something, you and I will die!" ”
The risk is extremely high, but what the master said couldn't be more right, if Sheng Yi said something, the queen will definitely investigate thoroughly, she can't escape.
In the prison at this time, Sheng Yi is reviewing the whole thing, and she wants to do what to grasp the initiative to the greatest extent.
When Sheng Yi slowly opened his eyes, the two palace maids were like hungry wolves pounced on food, and with a "whoosh", they jumped in front of Sheng Yi's eyes.
"Wake up! Wake up! The palace maid said excitedly.
Palace maid Yi couldn't wait to ask, "Who poisoned the Qi nobleman with the medicine?" ”
Looking at the green eyes of the two people, a word suddenly flashed in Sheng Yi's mind: human blood steamed buns.
Scold! These two people just want to use their meritorious service to make money, and they don't want to pay attention.
Sheng Yi's face was pale, his eyes opened and he drooped his eyelids weakly, and closed his eyes......
The palace maid Jia was choked, kicked at Sheng Yi angrily, and said angrily: "You deserve to fall into this fate!" ”
Palace maid B also pinched a handful of meat from Sheng Yi's waist with her hand, "Hmm-" The pain made Sheng Yi feel a burst of excitement and cold sweat.
Seeing Sheng Yi's miserable appearance, the two palace maids seemed to have found a balance in their hearts, and they both deliberately sat comfortably on the table next to them.
Sheng Yi's heart has 10,000 sentences of national quintessence exploding, if it weren't for the upbringing since childhood, this would definitely scold them for being a bloody squirt!
But not now, if she is reckless, she will inevitably be stumped by these two people, just remember this revenge in her heart, and silently read a gentleman's revenge for ten years.
Soon, Mama Li walked in angrily.
The palace maid A and B's eyes were very lively, and she was immediately silent, and her eyes followed Mama Li's figure.
Mama Li's eyes were like knives.
Sheng Yi seemed to feel the gaze, opened his eyes slightly, and saw Mama Li coming in, showing a loveless appearance.
"Sheng Yi, Mama, I'll give you another chance, who instructed you?" Mama Li's voice was sharp and her anger was unabated.
Looking at the fierce and vicious Mama Li, Sheng Yi guessed that this person must have been angry, and he couldn't hit the muzzle of the gun, and looked at Mama Li with a weak and pitiful look, and said weakly: "Mama, did I say something nonsense in my sleep?" You must believe in the slave, the slave is innocent! ”
After speaking, Sheng Yi curled up in a corner and sobbed quietly.
Cut! Who wouldn't be able to act, I think back then, Sheng Yi almost volunteered to apply for an acting major in the college entrance examination.
When Mama Li heard this, her eyes lit up, and she was depressed when she thought about the hardships she had just received, and she was so heartfelt and heartfelt to the noble Jin, but the noble Jin only regarded herself as a lackey, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she was patient, and deliberately seduced Sheng Yi and said: "Ahem-Mamma, since I asked you so, it must be because you said the person who instructed you in your sleep." I can tell you! The queen mother should come over soon, if you confess, maybe you can save your life, but don't blame Mama for not giving you this opportunity. ”
Sheng Yi pretended to be in disbelief, covered his mouth in surprise, tears fell down, and said in a trembling voice: "Mama, the slave didn't do it, the slave and the maid were wronged, even if there are doubtful people, the slave and the maid have not seen anyone poisoned themselves, so no one can be wronged." ”
Sheng Yi's words once again hit Mama Li's heart that wanted revenge, and she leaned in and asked urgently: "You said something about the Jin nobles in your sleep, but what does this matter have to do with the Jin nobles?" ”
Sheng Yi was so frightened that he stepped back again and again, shook his head, and muttered, "I don't know, I don't know......"
After saying this, Sheng Yi kept looking at Mama Li, and then avoided his gaze, as if he was afraid to talk about Jin Guiren with her again.
The more this is the case, the more Mama Li is sure that what Sheng Yi is saying is Jin Guiren, she is not stupid, she is so close to Jin Guiren on weekdays, if something happens to Jin Guiren, she will definitely not be able to get out of it, and now the best way to protect herself is to stand on the same front with Sheng Yi.
"Don't worry! Shengyi, if it is really a noble person, Mama will definitely ask the queen for your innocence! Mama Li was ashamed to say this.
Sheng Yi still ignored it, curled up in a corner, and his attitude changed too quickly, which would inevitably arouse suspicion, and it was better to take it step by step.
Without waiting for the queen to come, the jailer came first.
The jailer whispered, "Mama Li, Sheng Yi's father heard that his daughter was in trouble, and asked someone to bring in a box of hometown pastries, you see—" The jailer said and handed Mama Li a piece of silver.
Mama Li quietly accepted the money, cleared her throat, found a step for herself, and said in a high-sounding voice: "It's all here, we can't be unreasonable." ”
Mama Li walked in with the pastries, and said to Sheng Yi quite understandingly: "Sheng Yi, this is the pastry sent in by your father, if you don't say anything, this may be your decapitated meal." ”
Sheng Yi looked at it and froze in place.
Isn't her father so poor that he can buy so many people to bring in pastries?
Just when Sheng Yi was stunned, it was rumored outside that the queen mother was about to arrive at the door, and asked Mama Li to greet her.
"You two are optimistic about her!" Mama Li went out in a hurry.
Palace maid A looked at the pastry and puffed palace maid B, "The pastry is very good." ”
Hearing this, Palace Maid B walked over directly and took the pastry placed in front of Sheng Yi, handed it to Palace Maid A, and said proudly: "What does she deserve to eat!" ”
The palace maid couldn't wait to open it and took a big bite......
In just a few seconds, a plate of pastries was dazzled by the palace maid.
"The queen mother, please come here!"
The sound was getting closer and closer, and at the moment when the queen mother entered the door, the palace maid standing on one side fell to the ground with a "boom......
The dignified queen was frightened and her face was discolored.
"Mother, be careful!" Ai Xiang rushed to the queen's side to protect her.
Sheng Yi in the room looked at the palace maid who spat blood from her mouth, and then looked at the box of pastries......
"Pastries! This pastry is poisonous! The palace maid pointed to the pastry in horror.
The queen had adjusted her mind, and instructed the guards with a solemn face: "Someone! Carry her out! Also, seal the prison and don't let anyone go out! ”
Mama Li was already stunned, until the palace maid Jia was dragged away with her eyes open, Mama Li's legs collapsed to the ground, "This is an extermination!" ”
"Mother." Ai Xiang wiped the stool.
The queen inspected the room full of people, and her eyes finally fell on Mama Li, and said in a deep voice: "Say! What's going on? ”
Mama Li looked at the pastry and replied with a dead face: "The jailer said that this is the pastry handed over by Sheng Yi's father, isn't this just an end to the mouth, Queen Mother?" ”
Suddenly, Mama Li screamed, "Jailer! There is a problem with the jailer! ”
The queen gave her a look, and Ai Xiang ordered: "Go and bring the jailer!" ”
Sheng Yi's heart was still pounding, and he was 10,000 glad in his heart, but fortunately he didn't eat it......
"Your name is Sheng Yi?" The queen's gaze was cast on Sheng Yi.
Sheng Yi kowtowed and replied: "Back to the queen's mother, the slave is the palace maid Sheng Yi in the Qi Guiren Palace." ”
Before, I just heard Ai Xiang say that this Sheng Yi was tortured and still did not admit his guilt, and I felt curious, but when I saw it today, my heart was shocked. This Sheng Yi is covered with scars, and people can't help but sweat coldly when they see it, so he still doesn't admit his guilt, maybe there is another reason.
"Qi Guiren's matter is your poison?" Although the queen's voice is low, her all-round bearing makes people dare not slow down.
Sheng Yi straightened up, and said with a determined face: "The slave and maid were not poisoned, the slave and maid were wronged, that day, in addition to the slave maid, only Caifeng came into contact with the tea, which was strange, and I hope that the queen will make a clear decision." ”
At this time, the guard trotted all the way over and reported: "Queen Qiyu, the jailer is dead." ”
The queen's doubts were even worse, "Dead? ”
"Mother, this must be an extinction! From this point of view, someone must be guilty of this girl! Mama Li said with a fixed glare.
Ai Xiang seemed to have found something from the food box, carefully held the plate, handed it to the queen, and said, "Niangniang, do you see if this is a little familiar......
The queen's face changed.
"What the hell happened that day, you tell me carefully!" The queen's face was solemn, she put down the plate, and looked at Sheng Yi again.
Sheng Yi said firmly: "That day, the slave maid was doing something, and the Caifeng girl asked the slave to warm the tea, and when the Caifeng girl sent the tea in again, Qi Guiren had an accident." The slave and maid really didn't poison it, ask the queen to see it! ”
"Ai Xiang, immediately pass on the noble Jin and Caifeng to Jingren Palace!" The queen got up and commanded.
