The concubine was quickly arrested, and at first she refused to admit it until her basic account book was found, which clearly stated which court officials' daughters she had dealtled with.

A sum of gold and silver was recorded in the account, and one incident after another involving the government and politics, each of which made the concubines frightened.

"Your Majesty, it's really not a concubine, someone is trying to harm a concubine."

"Your Majesty, you also know that there are several concubines in this palace who have princes, only the concubines are from the most humble backgrounds, and the concubines are afraid of causing trouble to the three princes, and they live extremely miserable every day......

"Your Majesty, concubines are all victims, just like Jia Zhaoyi. The man behind the scenes has such a vicious mind, killing two birds with one stone! ”

As soon as the concubine changed her previous honest appearance, she began to beg for mercy constantly, in order not to let the blame fall on her head, she was simply like a flower, and all kinds of excuses came as soon as she opened her mouth.

Lu Wuji became more and more annoyed when he heard this, he was angry now, and it was not pleasing to look at the concubine, and the more she could say it at this moment, the more annoyed the emperor became.

Before co-authoring, they were honest and low-key, all in disguise, but in fact, they were all in order to paralyze others, to disguise themselves, and to do these immoral things.

Lu Wuji thought she was noisy, so he directly shook his hand and slapped her, and with a dull sound, the concubine was instantly beaten and the corners of her mouth bled out.

Her ears were ringing, and her hearing was clearly affected, making her dizzy.

After receiving this slap, she also closed her mouth instantly, not because she didn't want to defend herself, but now she was a little dizzy, and the scene in her eyes seemed to be spinning, and she couldn't care about speaking at all.

"You and Jia Zhaoyi are both victims, and you dare to say such things? It is clearly written in this account book, you used two private things in the palace to bribe the palace maids placed in the harem by the Li family and the Liu family, let them sew clothes, and send them to Chaoxia Palace to murder Jia Zhaoyi. ”

"I really didn't expect that those two families still have such skills, even the palace maids who have been on errands in the Shanggong Bureau for many years have their eyeliner, and they can work hard to do things for them!"

Lu Wuji grabbed her by the collar and lifted her directly from the ground, and grabbed the account book with the other hand and pressed her directly on the face.

As soon as the concubine eased up, she opened her mouth and wanted to continue to argue, but she was pressed by the account book, and she was speechless in an instant, only a whimper.

By the time Lu Wuji shook her off, the concubine was already flushed, and she didn't know whether she was holding it back, or if she was pressed hard by Lu Wuji, in short, she looked extremely embarrassed, her hair was messy, and her eyes were red.

"Say, Jia Zhaoyi eats the cold medicine in the food, are you also doing it?" Lu Wuji reached out and grabbed her neck and asked in a cold voice.

"No, it's not—" The concubine was choked by the neck, unable to move at all, and her breath was uneven, let alone speaking.

It took a long time to squeeze a few words out of my throat, and then I couldn't say it again.

Lu Wuji threw her out directly, and the concubine fell to the ground, and the whole person was full of meat, but he didn't dare to wait for it to calm down, and immediately defended herself.

"The concubine doesn't dare, the concubine knows that Jia Zhaoyi is your favorite, how can she be bold enough to assassinate her and completely anger you, she is completely looking for death, and give the concubine ten more dares, and the concubine will not dare to do this!"

"I see that you don't see the coffin and don't shed tears, so you are really invited."

For his threat, the concubine still refused to compromise and kept shaking her head in defense.

Lu Wuji took out a Jinpa and wiped his hands, a sarcastic smile on his face.

"Qin Youan, go and bring the third child over. Since the concubine is so heroic and not afraid of torture at all, then when he is questioned, let the third child watch from the side, and learn his mother's perseverance, lest he be like a soft egg all day long. He gave the order directly, turned around and was about to leave.

"Yes." Qin Youan immediately received the order, and when he looked up at the concubine, his face flashed with strange excitement.

In an instant, the concubine was like seeing a poisonous snake, and she was so frightened that she was shocked.

She knew that falling into the hands of Qin You'an, an old gelding, would not end well, and when the time came, all dirty means would definitely be used, and she would have to let the third prince come to watch, which she would never tolerate.

"The emperor, the emperor, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and the concubine will say everything!" The concubine immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, not daring to have the slightest luck.

"You come and ask, if she is not honest, she will be punished. I'm going to have to go see Jia Zhaoyi. Lu Wuji obviously lost interest, still threw her to Qin Youan, turned around and left, without stopping at all.

In less than half an hour, Qin Youan went with his testimony.

"Your Majesty, the servants have interrogated, and everything in the account books is right. But about the assassination of Jia Zhaoyi, she said that she had grievances, and she did buy the two families to use the forces in the palace, but she knew that if she wanted to hurry, she would not be able to reach it, and it was likely to leave a handle, so she only let the palace maid spray the diluted cold medicine on the new clothes, and as long as the clothes were washed by the pulp, it would be difficult to be found. ”

"And Jia Zhaoyi is gradually becoming pregnant now, her belly is getting bigger day by day, and the clothes must be made new often, so each piece of clothing is sprayed with a little cold medicine, which can also make Jia Zhaoyi's body worse over time, even if she does not have a miscarriage, but it will definitely have an impact on the fetus in her womb, maybe the child born is weak and difficult to feed, and there is an early death."

"I don't know what went wrong, the palace maid who was bought by the Shangfu Bureau did not spray diluted cold medicine, but directly ground various drugs into powder, made a sandwich, hid it in the clothes, and gave it to Jia Zhaoyi, so this will happen."

Qin You'an is worthy of being the number one lackey by Lu Wuji's side, forcing questions is his strength, and the concubine cares about the three princes very much, and if she grasps this handle, she has to recruit anything.

The more Lu Wuji listened, the worse his face became, and he couldn't help but curse secretly: "What a vicious mind." ”

"And in terms of food, does it have anything to do with her?"

"No, even if the slave threatens the third prince, she says no. The concubine also said—" When he said this, he suddenly stopped.

"Say anything else, you say it as soon as possible."

"The slave asks the emperor for forgiveness, and what the concubine said later is not very good." Qin Youan was vaccinated in advance.

"You old thing, say whatever you want, when did I punish you!" Lu Wuji raised his hand and nodded at him in the air.

Although he said this, there was a slight smile on his face.

The reason why Qin Youan was able to get into this position was precisely because of his caution, Lu Wuji was so ruthless to his own son, not to mention the eunuchs who served by his side, he was able to sit firmly in the position of the head of the inner house for so many years, and it was precisely because of this caution and humility.

Concubine Xiang said that the emperor favored Jia Zhaoyi alone, and even made exceptions for her several times, not only in the harem, but even in the previous dynasty who were dissatisfied with Jia Zhaoyi. There are countless people who want to harm her. Jia Zhaoyi can only have a miscarriage at this time, she is already in good health, otherwise with so many guns and arrows, she will not be able to sit for three months in this fetus. Qin Youan carefully repeated the words of the concubine.

As soon as his words fell, Lu Wuji had already swept all the tea cups on the table to the ground, obviously choking with anger.

"She is really bold, she said it so high-soundingly, and in the end, she blamed me for loving Jia Zhaoyi too much. This poisonous woman has done so many sins, and has united with the officials of the previous dynasty, she deserves death. Come on, give her a cup of poisoned wine! ”

Obviously, Lu Wuji was completely enraged.

"Your Majesty, the third prince is kneeling outside." A eunuch came in and spread the word.

"Most of the concubines did these sins to win over the courtiers for him, and he should kneel." Lu Wuji was completely unimpressed.

"Your Majesty, the third prince said that since his legs were abolished, he didn't dare to think about anything else. He didn't know what the concubine did, and if he had known that this was the case, he would have persuaded him, and everything was in vain. But the concubine is his biological mother, and he also asks the emperor to see that his legs are crippled, and bypass the concubine's life. The eunuch who reported fell to his knees, trembling all over, obviously passing this sentence on behalf of the third prince, making him tremble.

"Is he blackmailing him? Okay, I promised him, but the responsibility for the crime committed by the concubine is too great, and the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is unforgivable. Take her into the cold. ”

Soon, the emperor's decision to dispose of the concubines had spread throughout the palace.

After Chen Xueying learned about this, she was a little surprised, and it happened that Lu Zhao was also in the East Palace, so she went to ask him.

"Lu Wuji has always said the same, since they have all passed the edict to give a cup of poisonous wine to the death of the concubine, why did Lu Qingming beg for mercy in the past, so he withdrew his life and reduced the punishment? Could it be because Lu Qingming's legs are disabled, and he almost lies on the ground on his knees, which seems more sincere? But it should be difficult for old perverts to move compassion. ”

Lu Zhao said in a low voice: "The third child's leg was scrapped to save the emperor. ”

"Huh? This can be regarded as a great kindness, the old pervert is really not a thing, he lost his legs to save him, and he is not good to his third son. It's like this with wolves, and they have to force him to get off, tsk. Chen Xueying couldn't help but sigh.

The man shook his head: "It was hunting time, and a group of assassins suddenly appeared, the old guy was most afraid of death, not only with wolves, but also guards, but this key blow was saved by the third child, which is really strange." And when the third child rescued him, he wanted to block it with his chest, but he didn't expect the assassin's sword to cut his leg. The third child couldn't accept it at all, and fainted directly. ”

"When the imperial doctor came to check, he found that Lu Qingming was wearing chain mail on his upper body, and even if he was stabbed, he couldn't hurt him. But it's a pity that his legs were defenseless, and he was directly cut into cripples. ”

Lu Zhao said slowly, clearly explaining the scene of the third prince's rescue.

Chen Xueying couldn't help but take a deep breath, her face full of disbelief.

"It's a lot of water. Since Lu Qingming was wearing chain mail, he was able to avoid the guards and block the fatal blow for the old guy, which proved that he was likely to know the assassins' routes of action in advance, and even agreed with the assassins. It's just that in the end, he didn't stab the chain mail, but cut him in the leg, it should be the assassin who turned against the water, right? Or maybe someone else is intervening. She was dumbfounded, and she could only say that these royal children played with intrigues and tricks, and they were all twists and turns.

"That's right, all the assassins committed suicide by poisoning, and none of them survived, and the third man had crippled his legs and lived in a mess all day, and the old guy didn't press him again. This matter is full of strangeness, and the old guy didn't find anything useful when he wanted to investigate, after all, there is no power behind the third child and the concubine, and they can cultivate such a well-trained assassin team, I'm afraid that the third person will also be pitted. ”

After that, the emperor also thought about giving the third child some rewards, after all, he saved the car, but the third child did not accept it, and even in the melee with the wolves, he also took the initiative to say that he would voluntarily participate and not be special. It should be to save this little bit of kindness for the critical moment, and today in order to intercede for the concubine, he called someone to bring a message, and mentioned the crippled legs twice, which is to tell the old guy that the time has come to repay. ”

Lu Zhao analyzed the ins and outs of the matter very clearly.

Chen Xueying couldn't help but be speechless, there were really enough twists and turns.

"I can't see that the third prince is willing to fight for his mother, and he looks a little human." She sighed.

Lu Zhao hooked the corners of his lips and showed a sarcastic smile: "Even if he is inhumane, the old guy will force him to act." The emperor himself was ruthless and tortured his closest relatives, but he did not allow the people around him to do this, because he was afraid of cultivating a beast like him, so he turned his head and killed him regardless of family affection. ”

Obviously, as a person who has been tortured by Lu Wuji for so many years, Lu Zhao is really aware of the stinky virtues of this father.

Chen Xueying sighed lightly, and after hearing these things, she suddenly felt a chill on her body, and immediately poured herself a cup of hot tea and held it in the palm of her hand.

The warm breath hit and spread throughout the body through the palm, which dispelled the chill on the body.

"It's not easy to survive under him. What are your plans for the future? Chen Xueying asked.

Since Lu Zhao has already started to help Jia Zhaoyi, or directly make a big move like a miscarriage, it proves that he will only have bigger plans in the future, and some things can't be stopped once they start.

"You really want to know my plans?" He raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice.

Chen Xueying met his serious expression, coughed lightly in an instant, and immediately waved her hand: "Don't want to know, you just need to ensure the safety of this palace before the danger comes." Remember my safety first. ”

Lu Zhao's plan was nothing more than a rebellion, she really didn't want to know at all, and she didn't want to get involved.

Although she dreamed of going one step closer and becoming a queen or even a queen mother, she still refused if she really wanted her to take risks.

finally survived until now, she didn't want to throw her head and spill blood for Lu Zhao's road to the throne.

Lu Zhao chuckled and promised half-truthfully: "Don't worry, I'm dead, and you're alive and well." ”

Chen Xueying coughed lightly, although when he said this, he didn't look like he was swearing, but the prince of Northern Qi has always been a man of words, and he wouldn't lie to her.

"Has the matter of the incense powder shop been investigated?"

"After finding out, after Zhong Li's accident, the shops under her name were all transferred to Jia Zhaoyi, but Jia Zhaoyi returned them all to the Zhong family on the grounds that she couldn't take care of them, and the Zhong family would only send money to the palace regularly. With Zhong Hai's vigilance, it is impossible for people to develop these □□, and to harm the two concubines, plus you, the crown princess. ”

"The Zhong family is now powerful, but Zhong Hai is a smart man, he knows that he has military power, in fact, he is wandering on the edge of the cliff, if it weren't for the emperor asking the Zhong family to enter the palace several times, he can't wait for all the Zhong family members to be involved in the harem." Lu Zhao nodded. ：，nw，
