Chapter 217 Feeling His Sincerity Ru'er spits out the truth
Royal Palace, Yang He Palace:
Because of Empress Zhang's care, a royal doctor came to see Ru'er, and prescribed the right medicine according to the condition, Ru'er's body has improved greatly in the past few days.
This night, Ru'er almost didn't sleep all night, waiting for news from Wu Yin and Huang Yuan.
However, until the dawn of the day, there was no figure of Wu Yin, and Ru'er had a premonition.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for her to hear the discussion of several forbidden army warriors:
"General Wu Yin went to rescue Huang Yuan and the others last night, and I heard that they were all killed."
"No wonder he didn't return last night, but he went to rescue the thief."
"It's damn to think about it, my Shu Han has just settled down, and His Majesty has not returned from an expedition, so he is rebellious at such a time, if the former Zhuge Wuhou was alive, I am afraid that the Nine Clans would have been wiped out long ago."
"Shhh, Hugh is going to be heard by Concubine Ju."
Ru'er felt dizzy.
The hopes that had just risen were dashed.
When it was close to noon, Empress Zhang came over with Xiyue and Qinglian.
Ru'er thought that her plot with Wu Yin to escape was revealed, and she shrank on the bed and trembled in fright.
"Why hasn't Miss Ru'er woken up at such a time?" As soon as she came in, she shouted, "The queen has come to see you, get up and take the car quickly." ”
Ru'er didn't dare to get up, and pretended to be asleep with her eyes closed.
The quilt was lifted.
"How could Sister Ru'er sweat so much?" Empress Zhang's voice, "This palace wants you to wait for the imperial doctor to come, have you ever invited you?" ”
"Back to Niang Niang Chitose, Sister Ru'er has improved a lot in the past few days, but I don't know why today." A palace maid replied in a whisper.
Empress Zhang's little hand touched Ru'er's forehead.
"Fortunately, it's not too hot, Qinglian, you go and send the imperial doctor here again, and say that the palace is waiting here."
"Yes." Qinglian promised to leave.
As the current queen, it is really rare to be so concerned about a palace maid who is about to be beheaded, Ru'er can't pretend anymore, so she gets up and kneels on the bed.
"The slave and maid should be damned, the slave and maid are already fine, but they don't dare to face the queen, so they pretend to be asleep."
Everyone was a little surprised.
Empress Zhang had already seen that Ru'er was pretending to be asleep, but she just pretended not to know.
Huang Yuan, Wang Si and others have been killed, without waiting for Liu Yong to interrogate him personally, his Tongyu must be secretly snickering, at present, the only people who can know some of the inside story are Ru'er and Ju Fei Niangniang. Needless to say, it is not easy to get the truth out of her mouth. Then, only Ru'er is left, and Empress Zhang must know something from her mouth. She didn't want to torture her to extract a confession, so she had to use her feelings.
"Sister Ru'er was pretending to be asleep, you scared my sister to death." Empress Zhang pretended to be surprised, and then grabbed Ru'er's little hand, "Although this palace can't ask His Majesty to forgive you and Concubine Ju for their crimes, it is still possible to take more care of you two during this time." ”
"You girl, you dare to deceive the queen, can you be guilty?" Shame Moon reproached.
"The slave is guilty." Ru'er replied.
"Sister Hugh wants to blame Ru'er, she is different from you, she has always been by Concubine Ju's side, and she has little contact with this palace, so she naturally doesn't know the habits of this palace." Empress Zhang said.
Ru'er wiped the sweat from her face and didn't dare to speak.
"This palace came this time, I didn't alarm Concubine Ju, I just came to see you, if Sister Ru'er has any requests, just put it forward, this palace will definitely try its best to do it." Empress Zhang said again.
Tsuki was a little dissatisfied.
"The queen mother is very partial, the slave is sick, and I have never seen the queen mother care so much."
Empress Zhang smiled.
"You girl, why are you jealous like others?"
Qinglian covered her mouth and snickered on the side.
Xiyue is actually very smart, she cares about Ru'er so much that she has already guessed seven or eight points, but she just said it on purpose, and then she took Qinglian's hand again: "Sister Qinglian went out with me, but I forgot some things, and it just so happened that the queen also talked to Sister Ru'er." ”
Qinglian looked at Empress Zhang.
Empress Zhang smiled and nodded.
In addition, the palace maid saw Shayue and Qinglian going out, and she didn't know what Empress Zhang was going to say to Ru'er, so she hurriedly followed out.
Empress Zhang was still holding one of Ru'er's hands.
"My sister may not know that Wang Si and Tian Yong and others tried to escape last night, but they were killed on the spot by the samurai of our forbidden army, and this palace is worried that you will be scared when you hear this news, and you just happened to come to visit your sister's condition, so I will come." Empress Zhang deliberately said this and sighed lightly, "Wu Yin's family must have arranged everything to rescue these people, presumably there will be other Tongyu in this capital, but unfortunately, these people can no longer be found." ”
Empress Zhang said, secretly observing Ru'er's expression.
Ru'er kept her head down and kept silent.
"And Tian Yong, since he dares to rebel, in addition to Huang Yuan in the capital, there must be other Tongyu, these people are also going to escape, but this palace doesn't know how to explain to His Majesty, it's really upset, if my sister can say something to this palace, this palace will be happier." Empress Zhang said again.
Ru'er's body shook slightly.
Empress Zhang sensed that Ru'er's expression had changed.
"Concubine Ju and her brother conspired to usurp, in fact, it has nothing to do with you and others, but this palace does not dare to let you and others go privately, if there is an insider who has already reported it, this palace has taken measures earlier, and it will not affect these many people." Empress Zhang said again.
Ru'er shook lightly again.
Empress Zhang's hand that grabbed Ru'er suddenly moved slightly.
"Sister Ru'er's hands are so cold, could it be that her illness has worsened? Sister don't panic, this palace ordered someone to call the best imperial doctor. With that, Empress Zhang stood up and was about to leave.
"Niang Niang Chitose stays." Ru'er exclaimed in a low voice.
Empress Zhang stopped.
"Niangniang Chitose cares so much about the slave maid, if the slave maid wants to hide it again, I'm afraid she will even wake up crying from a dream." Ru'er said.
"Does my sister really have something to say to my sister?" Empress Zhang was overjoyed, but the expression on her face did not change.
"The slave maid also knows several ministers who are in contact with Uncle Tian Guo, and she also knows about the escape of Wu Yin and others last night, and knows that he bought off a leader of the forbidden army surnamed Wang, and a general surnamed Pan who guarded the city gate last night." Ru'er said.
Empress Zhang sat back down at Ru'er's bedside.
"Sister Ru'er really knows this, if you can tell your sister truthfully, my sister will definitely ask for mercy for you in front of Your Majesty. Even if you can't stay in the palace any longer, it will give you a good place to go. ”
"Slave, thank you, Queen." Ru'er was naturally overjoyed, and seemed to see the hope of living again.
After a stick of incense, Empress Zhang came out of Ru'er's house and called several forbidden warriors and the eunuch who had been patrolling the place.
"From now on, you can't ask anyone to come close to here, including the people in the palace and the court officials, if Concubine Ju Niangniang and Miss Ru'er and others are wrong, the palace will take you and others to blame." Empress Zhang commanded.
"Obey the Queen's decree." Several forbidden army warriors and the eunuch had never seen Empress Zhang's serious appearance, and hurriedly agreed.
