Chapter Forty-Six

In addition to the emperor and King Xuan, and a few guards in the palace, the rest were all harem concubines who had nothing to do at the beginning.

Cao Zhaoyi didn't wait for the recitation to finish, she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, and pointed her finger at Xin Wei and complained: "You actually wrote this obscene poem for your adulterer!" Presumably innocent! ”

Xin Wei was still not cowardly by this finger, but just raised the corners of her lips at her.

Cao Zhaoyi suddenly realized that her reaction was wrong......

At this time, Father-in-law Xi said unhurriedly: "This is not from the handiwork of Xiao Master Xin...... Cao Zhaoyi, this poem is signed in your name. ”

Cao Zhaoyi turned her eyes sharply and looked at her father-in-law Xi who was holding a letterhead, and the blood on his face faded and turned a miserable white.

"Impossible!"

Father-in-law Xi read the obscene poem in public, and his face was embarrassed: "The old slave doesn't know, but this poem does have your name under it." ”

He turned to ask the emperor: "Why don't you check the handwriting?" ”

Shen Xiao nodded and signaled that it was accurate.

The palace people immediately prepared pen, ink, paper and inkstone and asked Cao Zhaoyi to write in public.

Cao Zhaoyi held the pen, but her hand trembled, but she couldn't write for a long time.

After hesitating for a moment, she put the ink pen aside, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty, Xin Jieyu has the intention to frame the concubine, and she will be able to imitate the concubine's handwriting, no matter how the concubine proves herself, it will be in vain!" ”

Afterwards, Cao Zhaoyi looked at Xin Wei and was furious: "If I wrote an obscene poem, how could I put it in the flower bottle in your house!" It's clear that you did it on purpose! ”

"Sister Zhaoyi's words are so unreasonable," Xin Wei's tears swirled in her eyes, but they never fell, and this appearance was the most innocent, "How could the concubine expect that someone would denounce the concubine today, and even search the concubine's house?" Sister Zhaoyi is saying that concubines have the ability to predict the future? ”

Cao Zhaoyi was angry and anxious, her bright jade face was as red as drunk, and she asked urgently: "Then you explain how there are poems I wrote in your flower bottle!" ”

Xin Wei looked embarrassed and said frankly: "Sister Zhaoyi, because you came to my house this morning and put it in the flower bottle with your own hands." ”

Cao Zhaoyi was stunned.

She thought that Xin Jieyu would use many excuses to quibble, but she never thought that Xin Jieyu would tell the truth.

Xin Wei continued: "After my sister left, I took out the letterhead and read it, but I don't read much and can't understand the meaning of this poem, but I thought that since it is my sister's masterpiece, I will help sign my sister's name." ”

After speaking, Xin Wei asked her father-in-law, "Father-in-law should also see it, the signature on the back is written separately, which is different from the handwriting of the poem itself." ”

Father-in-law Xi looked at it again and agreed: "As Master Xin said, this is indeed the case. ”

Xin Wei said again: "There are many roads from Sister Zhaoyi's house to me, and my sister has always been eye-catching, so someone must have seen my sister coming along the way." ”

Hearing this, Chu Ying immediately got up to attend, knelt beside Xin Wei and replied, "Your Majesty, the concubine can testify!" The concubine's residence is separated from Xin Jieyu's wall, and this morning the concubine was enjoying the scenery outside the house, and saw this Zhaoyi lady go to Xin Jieyu's house, and stayed for more than a pillar of incense! ”

Her crisp and timid voice was like a talisman, booming into her ears, Cao Zhaoyi looked around, but her eyes were blurry, and she couldn't see everyone's expressions clearly.

Such a development was not at all expected by her.

She desperately thought about how to deal with it, and the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and something seemed to have broken into her head, and it kept buzzing.

Seeing that Cao Zhaoyi's body was weak, her hands were on the ground, her chest was rising and falling hard, and the thin sweat on her forehead was wet with her sideburns, Liu Qingshu looked at her coldly: "In this way, I don't understand, Cao Zhaoyi specially put an obscene poem in Xin Jieyu's flower bottle, and today she came to denounce it, what kind of thoughts do you have?" ”

Cao Zhaoyi's palm on the ground curled up, her nails were deeply embedded in the flesh of her palm, and her lower lip was white with blood loss due to the bite of her teeth, and the stinging pain made the chaos in her brain dissipate a little, and she slowly calmed down.

"Your Majesty...... I can't justify what Xin Jieyu said, but Xin Jieyu and the guard Feng Zhi fornicated with my own eyes, please ask the emperor to summon Feng Zhi into the palace, and the concubine is willing to confront him! ”

Shen Xiao closed his eyes, and pinched his eyebrows with his slender fingers: "You don't have to confront him." ”

Cao Zhaoyi moved her knees and knelt forward two steps, pleading: "The concubine is willing to swear by the glory of the Cao family, Xin Jieyu's fornication with others is true......"

Shen Xiao opened his eyes and said lightly: "Last night, Xin Jieyu was in the same place. ”

The understatement fell in the hall, but the hearts of the people were like a hurricane blowing, setting off stormy waves that could not be calmed down for a long time.

Liu Qingshu and Chu Ying were stunned at the same time, and turned their eyes to Xin Wei in disbelief.

Xin Wei lowered her eyebrows and remained silent.

He could have said this sentence a long time ago, but he had waited until now, when Cao Zhaoyi's ugliness was fully revealed, and his face was lost......

Cao Zhaoyi subconsciously retorted with a sharp voice: "It is impossible to ......"

She saw Xin Jieyu behaving intimately with her own eyes, and she saw the guards catching up with her to give her flower branches, how could she be fake?!

Shen Xiao twitched the corners of his mouth with a vague smile.

"You mean I'm lying?"

Cao Zhaoyi's eyes widened, and she looked at the emperor who was high up in horror, and she didn't understand why the emperor wanted to protect Xin Jieyu like this......

Could it be that the emperor was really with Xin Jieyu last night, so who met Xin Jieyu under the begonia tree......

Thinking like this, Cao Zhaoyi suddenly realized. No wonder, no wonder Xin Jieyu is so calm! The moment when his mind was finally clear, it was like Mount Tai pressing on the top, and he suddenly couldn't breathe, and his face couldn't help but be as white as paper.

She did such a stupid thing!

Cao Zhaoyi bowed her head and kowtowed, and said miserably: "It's the concubine who made a mistake, the emperor, the concubine definitely didn't mean to frame Xin Jieyu, it was really caused by a misunderstanding, please atone for the emperor!" ”

She stumbled hard, slamming the glass floor with each blow, and the dull sound of impact echoed through the hall.

"Tsk," King Xuan looked at the woman who was desperately pleading, and said with a stumbling voice, "If it weren't for Xin Jieyu who happened to be in the same place with the emperor, or if Xin Jieyu didn't find out that you were putting lewd poems in her flower bottle, today's episode would really make you succeed." ”

Liu Qingshu glanced at Cao Zhaoyi coldly, and said coldly: "Cao Yan, you fell into the water in the Taiye Pond last time, if it wasn't for Xin Jieyu to save you, you would have drowned at that time, and you still do this today." Ungrateful, wolf-hearted, it's people like you. ”

"There is such a thing," King Xuan laughed with disdain, and then looked at Shen Xiao and said, "The surname is Cao, could it be Cao Zhongxin's daughter, how did the Cao family raise a daughter of such a character?" ”

Cao Zhaoyi saw blood marks on the ground, and the palace concubines turned their eyes and couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

The disgust in Shen Xiao's eyes was fleeting, and he stopped it in a loud voice: "Okay." abolished the position of Zhaoyi of the Cao family, demoted to a talented person, and moved to Jingyang Palace. ”

The main position of Jingyang Palace is Yu Zhaoyi, so she will go to Jingyang Palace to send people under the fence.

There was such an embarrassment in front of everyone's eyes, and it was just a demotion, Cao Zhaoyi didn't know whether to grieve or rejoice, tears burst out of her eyes, and she kowtowed again, and her voice was like a rag: "Thank you, Emperor!" ”
