Chapter 070: The prince seems to be angry
"You don't need to come and report to this king, just tell Miss Tao what you found out."
After Xie Lan's deep voice was remembered, everyone remembered that this matter also involved him.
He is doing this now to tell everyone that he and Tao Yaoyao have the same attitude at this time, and they will not tolerate it. Of course, there is also the meaning of provoking His Majesty's ridicule just now.
For a while, the dark tide was surging above the main hall, Chang Geng ignored the inquiring looks of everyone, and went straight to Tao Yaoyao, after Tao Yaoyao got the news he found, it suddenly illuminated the entire hall like the hot summer sun.
"Niangniang, the courtiers are guarding against disasters for you this time."
When Wang Meiren heard this, she immediately frowned, "What do you mean by this?" This concubine is His Majesty's woman, even if there is really anything, this concubine will only let His Majesty protect this concubine. ”
Thinking of her situation, a touch of disdain flashed in Wang Meiren's eyes, "You can't protect yourself, you are still in the mood to tease this concubine, you are so bold." ”
"Don't worry, mother." After Tao Yaoyao finished speaking, she came to Xiao Shuo, and at this time his interrogation was almost done, she handed him the note, and then sat back in her place.
Seeing this, Wang Meiren had a deep dissatisfaction in her eyes.
What does Tao Yaoyao mean by this, she picked up everyone's curiosity, but she picked it herself, what place did she think of the beauty house, and what kind of person did she think of?
Originally, she wanted to use her to deal with Concubine Xian, but she knew that this was the case, and she should have ......
"Which of you comes first?"
After Xiao Shuo finished reading the note, he tucked it into his cuffs, and then looked at the palace maids.
A few palace maids, you look at me, I look at you, no one wants to be the first to stand up, and in the end, Xiao Shuo ordered someone, and they stopped pushing.
"You just need to tell everyone what you just said to the official."
The first palace maid to be called out is called Cai Wei, she is from the courtyard of Princess Anping, she was called to help today, and she has been following Mama Dong at the beginning.
Later, after Mama Dong was assigned to the side hall, she and her sisters received guests in the courtyard.
"The slave and maid inadvertently saw Mama Dong pushing people. But the slave was too scared, so she hid as soon as possible. ”
When Cai Wei said this, her face became more and more pale.
At that time, she really thought that as long as she hid for a while, and then went out, she would be calmer, and the matter would be over, who knew that she had seen Mama Dong pick up a porcelain vase.
And when she was dodging in a panic, she was seen by Chang Geng, and she was called over for questioning.
The other two people were not as unlucky as her, they were just passing by, and the remaining palace maid, she saw Mama Dong secretly go to a deserted house.
And just now, Xiao Shuo had already asked people to search this house.
"The evidence of Mama Dong pushing Miss Tao is complete, so let's talk about the grievances between Mama Dong and the winter solstice."
As soon as Xiao Shuo's voice fell, Dong Xue immediately said, "My brother doesn't know Mama Dong at all......"
"Miss Dongxue, although you are brother and sister, you don't say everything to each other, what's more, Mama Dong hasn't spoken about this matter yet, what are you anxious about?"
This...... Dongxue frowned.
"Mama Dong, do you say this matter yourself, or do you have the official to say it for you." Xiao Shuo looked at Mama Dong with a smile.
With such an expression, Mama Dong has lived for so many years and has seen it too many times, she knows that Xiao Shuo already knows everything, and he is asking him now, just because he hopes that she will take the initiative to tell the truth.
But how can it be said, but what if it is not said?
The left and right things have already sat down, did she say that she didn't have to die?
Just when everyone was waiting for Mama Dong to speak, she suddenly kowtowed three times to Her Majesty and Wang Meiren, and then said in a vicissitudes of voice, "The winter solstice was killed by slaves." ”
What?
Was the winter solstice really killed by a woman? Or in that cruel way, this ......
Although Miss Tao looks a little fierce and unruly, she is really smart, and she can solve such a tricky case so quickly.
In the past, I only thought that Lord Xiao was powerful, but in the future, there was another person in Kyoto City who was good at handling cases, but unfortunately, she was a woman, otherwise there would be a lot fewer unjust, false and wrongful cases in Kyoto City.
When Dongxue heard this, a touch of anger flashed in her eyes.
"Why did you kill the winter solstice?" Wang Meiren said unhappily.
The winter solstice brothers and sisters are her henchmen, and they are all broken all of a sudden, and the most important thing is that the person who killed him is actually Concubine Xian's person, which is undoubtedly Concubine Xian's slap in the face.
You know, today is her birthday banquet, how dare she?
Mama Dong wanted to protect the people behind the scenes, and planned to take on everything by herself, and then end the matter, but Wang Meiren did not allow it, she changed the fire from the other side just now, and looked at her angrily at this time, with a big posture that she didn't play if she didn't know about it.
The emperor saw that something was wrong with Wang Meiren, and opened his mouth to say something, but he thought that today was her birthday, and the matter had been investigated to this point, so it should not hurt to dig a little deeper.
So he looked up at Xiao Shuo.
"That's what the note says." Chang Geng did not shy away from them when they gave the note, and His Majesty sat on it and saw it even more clearly.
In addition, the meaningful words that Tao Yaoyao said after seeing the note, His Majesty knew what was going on after thinking about it for a while.
"Yes." When Xiao Shuo was about to present the note, His Majesty looked at Mama Dong, "Did you say it yourself, or did I ask someone to ask you to say it." ”
Your Majesty's invitation is not an invitation, but a punishment. There are many more ways to interrogate people in the palace than in the prison, and Mama Zhou has been taught in the past.
She never wanted to experience that kind of scene in her life, so after His Majesty spoke, she opened her mouth almost subconsciously.
The minion said. The minion said. Please also ask Your Majesty not to send the slaves to Hewei. ”
It turned out that Mama Dong's daughter was framed for stealing something a year ago and died in the hands of the winter solstice, so Mama Dong held a grudge against him.
Mama Dong originally planned to kill the winter solstice today, but it was an accident to pick up the porcelain vase that Chang Gung had lost, and the framing of him was also a temporary thought.
Originally, he wanted Tao Yaoyao to take the blame for her, but he didn't expect that in the end, it was because of this thing that hurt him.
The old thing didn't confess the virtuous concubine, and Wang Meiren was very dissatisfied with this explanation.
"The side hall is heavily guarded, and the guards are sure that no one has entered during this period, how did you enter quietly?" Xiao Shuo asked.
At first, Mama Dong refused to say that it was the guards who went to check the abandoned house who came back, and she couldn't hide it when she saw that she couldn't hide it, so she said where the secret room of the side hall was.
"There really is a secret room."
Everyone was once again surprised by Tao Yaoyao's intelligence.
At this point, the dust has settled, when the Imperial Forest Army took Mama Dong and Dong Xue out, Tao Yaoyao looked at Dong Xue with a wine glass, "Why do you hate me so much?" As far as I know, I have no grievances with you, but I don't believe that your hatred for me is for no reason. ”
Dong Xue turned her head to look at Wang Meiren, then endured the hatred in her eyes, and said softly, "The slave's brother died for no reason, and the guards found your things beside him, the slave and maid were just in a hurry so they talked nonsense, and I ask Miss Tao to forgive me." ”
Wrong.
Her dislike for her began at the edge of the pond.
Obviously, she wasn't like this when she was at the gate of the palace, how could a person be so contrasting before and after?
"Maybe you think too much, or maybe she was this kind of person from the beginning, but she was good at disguise, so she deceived you."
After leaving the palace, Tao Yaoyao talked to Xiao Shuo about this matter, and he explained it like this.
After thinking about it carefully, Tao Yaoyao felt that this explanation was also reasonable.
She was really tired today, she wanted to sleep now, and as for the rest, let's talk about it tomorrow.
After saying goodbye to Xiao Shuo, she took Qiu Gui to the place where the Tao family parked the carriage, who knew that when she arrived at the place, she found that the Tao family's carriage had long been gone.
"Miss, they're really too much."
If it weren't for Miss today, it would be impossible for them to come to the palace to attend the banquet, and for this banquet, Miss also bought clothes and jewelry for them.
They don't thank Miss, how can they do this to her.
Now what? It's so late, if you walk back, I'm afraid it's going to be dawn.
But there are no other carriages here...... Qiu Gui was about to cry.
"Miss......"
"What's the hurry, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, even if there is no road, there is not a mountain road, in short, you can rest assured, we always have a way to go back."
Tao Yaoyao comforted Qiu Gui while looking around. At this time, the carriage of the Dingbei Wangfu happened to come from the side, and when she saw it, she didn't think about it, and rushed over with Qiu Gui.
The driver didn't expect someone to rush over suddenly, but luckily he reacted quickly, otherwise......
"Miss Tao."
Chang Geng was almost knocked down by the driver's sudden braking, and when he opened the curtain and was about to lose his temper, he saw Tao Yaoyao pulling her maid and looking at them with a smile.
Chang Geng thought of something, looked up at the empty parking space, and then looked at his master.
"Why are you stunned, hurry back home."
A cold and alienated voice came, Tao Yaoyao remembered what happened in the main hall just now, and unconsciously took two steps back until he gave way to them.
Seeing this, Chang Geng opened his mouth to say something. At this moment, the coachman whipped down, and the carriage ran quickly forward.
"Miss, the prince seems to be angry."
Tao Yaoyao looked at the carriage that disappeared soon, and sneered, "Then have you seen that your young lady is also angry?" ”
"Ah, miss, why are you angry?" Qiu Gui looked puzzled.
Tao Yaoyao was almost angry with her, "Whose maid are you?" No matter how you open and close your mouth, you will speak for him. ”
"Miss, you misunderstood, I just told the truth, and today in the main hall, the prince really helped us."
"When did he help me? He obviously disliked me very much, and even wanted to clear up his relationship with me at that time. What, your young lady, am I a poisonous snake and beast?
Obviously, I saved his life several times, but he didn't appreciate it, and he looked at me with colored glasses like others, which was too annoying. No conscience. ”
