Chapter Seventy-Four: Wanfu Palace's Wu Guifei
Another night.
Chen Xiangbei woke up and hurried to Huaqing Palace to find Li Guifei, and told him about Dongchang's request for him to assist in the investigation of the case last night.
"Liu Shi? This palace has heard the name of this person, and he is one of the most powerful eagle dogs in Dongchang, and is known for being good at picketing unjust, false and wrongful cases, and extorting confessions by torture.
His Majesty even gave his imperial pen four words of righteousness, and it seems that Dongchang or His Majesty have doubts about Zhao Chengyi. ”
Concubine Li Guifei sat in front of the dresser, combing the three thousand black silk with rhino horns, her expression was flat, and it seemed that everything was expected.
And the idle people have been cleared out by her, so the conversation between her and Chen Xiangbei has no scruples.
Hearing this, Chen Xiangbei was deeply surprised, he thought that Liu Shi was just an ordinary deacon in Dongchang, and the interrogation process last night was also unremarkable, he didn't expect him to have such a background, and his methods were so ruthless.
"So, isn't Liu Shi's method of handling the case terrifying?"
Chen Xiangbei was deeply surprised and frowned.
Thinking that he could retreat from the East Factory last night, he couldn't help but take a breath.
Concubine Li Guifei saw Chen Xiangbei's surprised look from the bronze mirror, and said: "This is nothing, the most powerful thing about this Liu Shi is that he has a spiritual pet named "Hedgeho", which resembles a unicorn with horns, and can distinguish the true and false of good and evil in the world. ”
"You are also smart, you didn't leave any truth during the interrogation, if you say something wrong, it's strange that you can get out of Liu Shi's hands so easily."
"So ... Mother, shouldn't we be preparing early? ”
Chen Xiangbei made a suggestion.
Li Guifei said: "No need, you have done this matter from beginning to end without flaws, even if you investigate, you can't find anything, at such a critical juncture, it will cause the idea of Dongchang." ”
"But Niangniang, I'm afraid that the Oligopoly Pill will become the thread of Dongchang's case... Once the news of the loss of humanity of the four princes comes out, both His Majesty and Dongchang will definitely pay attention to this matter. ”
"After the Oligopoly Pill enters the body, there is no trace, even if you find out, you don't know who did it, so you don't need to worry about it."
Saying that, Concubine Li Guifei rubbed her shoulders again: "Xiao Chenzi, come here, Bengong's shoulders have been a little sore recently, come and help Bengong slow down." ”
Chen Xiangbei stepped forward, his hand lightly rested on Li Guifei's jade shoulder, and kneading with fingering.
"Hmm~push harder~"
Concubine Li let out a soft snort, slowly closed her eyes and looked intoxicated, obviously very satisfied with Chen Xiangbei's fingering.
"Xiao Chenzi, what is your fingering called?"
"Yu Niangniang, a yang finger."
"Very good, this palace has been a little sore recently...
"Xiao Chenzi, go down a little more...
At this time, a palace maid suddenly came to report: "Niangniang, the Wu Guifei of Wanfu Palace is here." ”
Chen Xiangbei immediately retracted his hand and stood beside Concubine Li with his eyebrows down.
"Concubine Wu?" When Li Guifei heard this, her brows frowned slightly: "Quick, please come in." ”
This Wu Guifei and Li Guifei entered the palace at about the same time, and they were also deeply favored by Zhao Kuangheng and had a great reputation in the harem.
On weekdays, the two rarely have the opportunity to deal with each other, so their relationship in private is mediocre, so Concubine Li is a little confused about Concubine Wu's sudden visit.
There was a sound of footsteps.
Under the guidance of several palace maids, Concubine Wu came to Concubine Li's inner court.
As a harem concubine, Wu Guifei is in the prime of her life, with jade cheeks and cherry lips, eyes like apricots, her black hair is curled into a wishful bun, a peach blossom white hosta is inserted, and she is wearing a pale peach-colored begonia palace dress, her temperament and appearance are stunning, and she is on par with Li Guifei.
Li Guifei stepped forward to greet her and gently took Wu Guifei's hand: "Today is really a good day, what brought my sister here?" ”
"I haven't seen my sister for a long time, and I happened to be free today, so I came over to talk about my family, I came here suddenly, and I didn't disturb my sister, right?"
Wu Guifei smiled brightly, like a peony in the wind.
"How so? I wish my sister came to talk to me every day, it's boring to stay in this palace all the time. ”
The two walked into the inner court side by side, smiling and smiling, like a slowly unfolding fairy painting.
After taking their seats, the eunuchs brought candied fruit and tea one after another.
Concubine Wu took a sip of high-quality Longjing tea and said with a smile: "Sister, I heard that you went home a while ago to save your relatives?" ”
"Yes, this time, the Great Pillar Kingdom has returned from Beiliang to enter the Beijing Saint, I want to be sincere, so I asked His Majesty to go back to the Great Pillar Kingdom."
Li Guifei gently put down the teacup and said.
Wu Guifei sighed faintly: "It's really good, unlike my parents who are far away in Jiangnan, don't say that I have to go home to visit, even if I have to wait for the letters at home for ten years, sometimes I will be sad at night when I think of my relatives and friends at home." ”
"Sister, don't be sad, Your Majesty has always had the habit of touring the south, won't you be able to drive with your relatives then?"
Li Guifei said comfortingly.
Under the same roof of the deep palace, Li Guifei can empathize with this kind of family affection.
Chen on the side stood against the wall to the north and lowered his eyebrows.
Listening to the two beauties chatting in their ears, it was like a gust of spring breeze, and my heart was very happy.
Yes, the joy of being an emperor is so unpretentious.
I didn't think that I, a little eunuch, would also have the opportunity to experience it.
The two chatted, and suddenly Concubine Wu changed the topic and said, "That's right... Sister, do you hear those gossips in the palace? ”
Concubine Li's face did not change, and her eyebrows frowned slightly: "I haven't heard of it." ”
"That's it, it's a rumor after all, don't mention it, so as not to spoil the charm of you and me at the moment." Wu Guifei shook her head and said.
"Sister, just say it, the more you are so pretentious, the more curious my sister will be!"
Li Guifei's eyes moved slightly.
Concubine Wu sighed lightly and said: "I only heard it from the eunuch in the palace this morning, saying that the fourth prince Zhao Chengyi has a wrong idea about your sister, but you can't get your sister... took advantage of the palace banquet to attack Mrs. Lin... ”
Concubine Li Guifei covered her mouth and smiled: "Today's rumors really can't be stopped, no matter what the reason, the matter of the four princes is decided by His Majesty, as long as I can give my mother justice, it would be good,
But then again, these subordinates in the palace are really becoming more and more unruly, and they even dare to create rumors about their masters. ”
Regarding the rumors in Concubine Wu's mouth, Concubine Li Guifei did not pay attention.
And that's exactly what happened.
Moreover, the fact that Zhao Chengyi was imprisoned in Zhaijingtai is well known, and there is nothing to care about.
And Concubine Li Guifei's grace has been flourishing recently, which has attracted the red eyes of many harem concubines, and it is not surprising that some people use this to slander her reputation.
"Although it is a rumor, many times a rumor is a knife, and my sister can add an extra heart."
Wu Guifei said worriedly.
