Chapter 20: The Yellow Sparrow in the Last Three
After that, Shen Shuning looked at her sideways, and the smile on his lips deepened.
"You refuse to admit the testimony of Weiyang Palace and Yong'an Palace, so what about the people of your Fengyi Palace, Cao Qing, you also know that people's hearts are the most difficult to control, how can you be sure that the people who do things for you will not betray you?"
The queen forced her composure, and after thinking about it, she asked lightly: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Shen Shuning's mouth was a little dry, and he took the teacup held by the maidservant and took a sip.
"Spread like a cloud!"
The name Ruyun made the queen stunned.
The queen stood up and did not sit down again, but looked straight at the door of the temple.
The current situation is already unfavorable to her, if Ruyun betrays her, how can she defend herself? Ruyun has been doing things for her for a long time and knows too much.
Knowing this, she should have asked for Ruyun's life early, so that she couldn't open her mouth again!
At the gate of the temple, he did not see the clouds coming in.
"The emperor has arrived!"
The eunuch shouted, and Shen Shuning's face changed.
At this time today, she knew that Shen Xiao would be immersed in reading books in the library at this time, and she should have plenty of time to make a big fuss in Fengyi Palace.
But Shen Xiao came when he shouldn't have appeared.
The concubines knelt on both sides to greet the emperor.
Shen Xiao walked into the hall wearing a dark gold embroidered dragon pattern brocade, stopped beside Liu Qingshu, looked at Liu Qingshu with a frown, and said lightly to the queen: "You can't punish the doctor, queen, how can you abuse lynching?" ”
Although the volume is light, it has a thousand weights.
The queen knelt down in panic: "The concubine is eager to find the culprit for the little princess, she made a mistake, and the concubine knows that she is wrong!" ”
Shen Xiao nodded, and turned to Shen Shuning and said softly: "The imperial sister is tired, go back and rest, and I will deal with the rest." ”
Shen Shuning didn't move, his eyebrows and eyes were heavy.
"Is the queen's sin just an abuse of lynching?"
No matter how well she knows Shen Xiao, she can't let him go perfunctory when she gets the opportunity this time.
"Naturally, there are other sins." Shen Xiao said.
Under Shen Xiao's signal, the guards escorted Ruyun into the palace: "This Ruyun, in the name of the queen, lured Concubine Liu to go to the drunken Wengtai and murdered Concubine Meng Hui to blame Concubine Liu." ”
In the name of the Queen?
In this way, the queen's sin was forcibly erased.
When the queen saw the emperor say this, she suddenly opened her mouth, walked up to Ruyun and asked, "In the name of this palace, you deceived Concubine Hui and framed Concubine Liu?" ”
Ruyun lowered her head deeply, crying silently, no one could see what her face was, only her shoulders trembling with fear of sin.
The queen said sharply: "You caused the palace to be misunderstood by the eldest princess, and you almost became a sinner!" What a damn you! ”
Shen Shuning sneered, Ling Yan's eyes stared at Shen Xiao stubbornly, as if a blazing flame was rolling straight forward, and it was like cold ice quenching bones, frozen for thousands of miles.
The evidence is conclusive, how can he be convincing that he let Ruyun, an insignificant palace maid, take the blame?
Shen Xiaohun didn't care about her lustful gaze, and continued: "Abuse of lynching, this is the first crime, and the unknown person is the second crime. But since the queen governed the harem, it is rare to make mistakes, so I will not pursue it. ”
The queen was frightened to hear him drop the last word, breathed a sigh of relief, and thanked him: "Thank you for your forgiveness." ”
Shen Xiao said again: "However, the queen is in poor health, she should recuperate, and you have no power to deal with this harem affairs, so you don't have to take care of it anymore." ”
The queen looked up suddenly.
If you can't manage the affairs of the harem anymore, won't you lose the real power of the queen? In history, many times after the abolition of the post, she started from the collection of real power, then collected the phoenix seal, and finally abolished the position to announce the world, did she take the first step?
Shen Shuning was still dissatisfied. It's just a temporary seizure of power, and there are many resurrections.
She was about to speak, when Xin Wei opened her mouth and shouted: "The emperor is sage! ”
Later, the concubines also shouted in unison: "The emperor is sage! ”
Shen Shuning couldn't help but glance at Xin Wei, a little ashamed, and a little indescribable heartache.
The once high-spirited young man has become so mercenary trying to reverse black and white, how disappointed is she with her "Emperor Shengming"?
When he raised his eyes again, Shen Shuning echoed with a half-sigh and half-mockery: "The emperor is sage." ”
Then, he strode past the kneeling crowd and walked into the light outside the temple gate.
The eldest princess disappeared, and the queen said: "Your Majesty, right now, Concubine Hui is unconscious, Concubine Liu is injured, and the concubine's body is fine......
She is reluctant to let go of power after all.
A hoarse voice sounded at this moment, like a thunderbolt across the sky.
"Ruyun is just a servant girl, how can she be so powerful to endure Concubine Hui, and why is her motive to bother to frame me!"
Liu Qingshu screamed in grief, looking at the emperor with a pair of dark eyes, refusing to give up.
Even if the queen loses the right to control the six palaces, she is still the queen in the end, she is now in a situation where she cannot coexist with the queen, if the emperor insists on sparing the queen easily, how will she be better in the future?
What's more, her grievances have been revealed.
A little palace maid, harming the emperor's heir and two concubines, if there is no guidance from the queen, who can believe it?!
Shen Xiao was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "Ruyun is handed over to Dali Temple for trial, you don't have to worry, take care of your body." When you are better, you will take care of the harem on behalf of the queen. ”
The words "Acting for the queen to manage the harem" are very important.
Liu Qingshu looked up at him with a bloodstained face, for a long time, smiled sadly, and bowed her head.
"Your Majesty."
-
When Liu Qingshu was helped into the sedan chair, she turned back to Xin Wei and said, "I want to drink red dates and japonica porridge." ”
When she was in Biluo Palace, Liu Qingshu only lay on the bed as soon as she had a moon, weak and bloodless.
Eating red dates is good for the body, but Liu Qingshu doesn't like to taste the sweet and greasy taste of red dates, and every time she eats them, it is like chewing wax, which is difficult to swallow.
Xin Wei boiled the red dates into the japonica porridge, diluting the sweetness of the dates and adding the fragrance of the japonica porridge.
After sealing the concubine, Liu Qingshu's daily meals are dazzling, what kind of delicacies and seas have not been tasted, but she always thinks of the light red dates and japonica porridge.
Xin Wei held a celadon bowl with a white background, blew the japonica porridge in the spoon, and fed it to Liu Qingshu's lips.
Liu Qingshu tasted it, signaled the servants around her to retreat, and said with tears in her eyes: "Do you understand this time, this is the reason why I advised you not to be a palace concubine." The person who was jealous and framed, and whom I regarded as my husband, could not give me justice, so that I endured the grievances all my life. ”
Xin Wei reminded: "Now that you have saved your life and gained the right to govern the harem, it is a great luck, and this kind of thing must not be said again." ”
"Governing the harem, am I rare?"
Liu Qingshu smiled sadly, "He, I was rare, but I really can't figure it out, why does he want to be partial and conniving when he knows that the queen has done a lot of evil?" ”
She is an ordinary woman, unemployed, and the emperor has a handsome face and a handsome spirit, which is different from ordinary men.
In the face of the tenderness he gave, Liu Qingshu will inevitably be moved, and a vague expectation will arise.
But what she expected was wrong.
Xin Wei had long expected that the emperor would do this.
Unless the queen's crimes are revealed to the public before he can protect him, the emperor will inevitably save the queen.
Keeping the queen is also preserving the royal reputation.
