When Mrs. Li heard this, her eyelashes trembled slightly, but she still bit her mouth tightly.
Upon seeing this, Shen Sizheng presented the charge signed by Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li confessed to the theft, but she still refused to say anything about the whereabouts of the lost items.
"The Queen Mother, in my humble opinion, if she doesn't need to be tortured, I'm afraid she won't speak." Shen Wenjin turned her head and glanced at Mrs. Li with a vague look and continued, "If Gong Zhengsi's flowing torture instruments were used, Once, Wei Chen is sure to pry her mouth open."
Sheng Shaoqing frowned, this is not good.
At this moment, Yuan Che suddenly tugged on Sheng Shaoqing's sleeve. Seeing that he had something to say, Sheng Shaoqing leaned over and listened.
Yuan Che covered his mouth with his hands and whispered, "Mother, although Mrs. Li likes luxury, she is a very arrogant person. If she is tortured, I am afraid she will not succeed."
Sheng Shaoqing looked at Yuan Che in surprise, "How do you know?"
Yuan Che stuck out his tongue. He didn't want to tell his mother that his father had accidentally said that he liked the pride in Mrs. Li.
Sheng Shaoqing thought for a while, if he was so arrogant, how could he become such a rooster and a dog thief?
[Host! It has just been detected that your affection value has suddenly soared. You can now exchange for rare props! 】
Sheng Shaoqing:????
"What kind of rare method?"
【True Heart Pill: I can always remain sincere to you.】
[Xiejie Pill: Can resolve past grievances. 】
[Forgetting Water: Can forget all the love and hate in the past and become a stranger again. 】
"What do I need these for???"
[You can use the True Heart Pill to make Mrs. Li tell the truth.]
"Can you still play like this???"
The system did not speak, but used actual actions to prove what it said, because Sheng Shaoqing felt that there was a small white bottle in his sleeve.
Sheng Shaoqing took out the bottle and handed it to Shen Wenjin who was in front of her. His eyes indicated that she should take it to Mrs. Li.
Shen Wenjin was horrified. She only wanted to be tortured, but she didn't want to die.
However, under the pressure of the Queen Mother, she had no choice but to pick up the tea and walk towards Mrs. Li.
Signaling the sturdy female historians to hold down Mrs. Li, Shen Wenjin forced the pill given by the Queen Mother into Mrs. Li's mouth.
"You---what are you doing!! Uh--" Mrs. Li closed her eyes and did not realize the danger was coming. When she came to her senses, she could only retching to spit out the "poison".
Seeing that her struggle was fruitless, Mrs. Li simply stopped retching and just glared at Sheng Shaoqing and said, "You are abusing lynching in the palace!"
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Li gradually felt that something was wrong. Sheng Shaoqing in front of her no longer looked that annoying, but actually started to become amiable.
Until finally, the feeling of something wrong completely dissipated, and Sheng Shaoqing had become a god-like existence in her heart.
"The Queen Mother is right! It is my concubine who deserves death!"
Shen Wenjin was surprised to see the change in Mrs. Li's demeanor. After hearing Mrs. Li's words, she was even more surprised and her jaw almost dropped to the ground. This is when a person is about to die. Can his words be kind?
Why does Mrs. Li's demeanor become more and more peaceful, even projecting the light of worship? The effect of the Queen Mother's medicine is very different!
Sheng Shaoqing:6.
"Ahem," Sheng Shaoqing cleared his throat, "Tell me, where did you put all the stolen things? And why did you steal?"
Mrs. Li respectfully replied, "I am only responsible for transporting these treasures outside the palace and handing them over to Li's people. I don't know what happens next."
Everyone was first shocked by Mrs. Li's transformation. What the Queen Mother had just given was not medicine, but an ecstasy soup.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Li told everyone an even more outrageous story, and everyone present didn't know which one should be shocked first.
The Li family was once a prosperous big family in the previous dynasty, but since Beiliang took control of the Central Plains, it despised the Han people, so the Li family could only curl up its wings and retreat to Jiangzhou.
After years of recuperation, the Li family finally had the capital to make a comeback, and their goal was to regain the lost territory in the south of the Yangtze River.
In their hearts, that is their homeland.
Li Lingjiang also tested whether the imperial court had the intention of a southern expedition. After being rejected many times, he came up with this strategy. He wanted to station troops privately and control the military power, and then plan a southern expedition.
"My concubine used to be resentful towards you, which is why I spoke rudely. I am just not willing to accept your good fortune and become the Queen Mother, while I have been operating for many years but have gained nothing, and have to be used as a pawn to squeeze out the last bit of use value.
"
"As for Mrs. Li, I have paid off my debt over the years. Now I owe nothing to Mrs. Li."
Sheng Shaoqing couldn't digest such a big secret all of a sudden, and everyone was dumbfounded.
Sheng Shaoqing issued a hush-hush order, shunned everyone, and then asked Mrs. Li for a long time before letting her go.
When Mrs. Li left, she still reluctantly looked back at Sheng Shaoqing step by step. How could she think that the Queen Mother was vulgar in the past? For such a gentle person, she must have been blind and mistook pearls for fish eyes.
When Sheng Shaoqing returned to the palace with Yuan Che who was also shocked, he couldn't help but sigh, if only there had been such a good thing.
[That doesn’t mean that you don’t work hard to increase your points. If your points are high enough, it doesn’t mean that you can use whatever props you choose.]
Sheng Shaoqing was choked, changed the subject and asked, "I haven't asked yet, why did the family affection value suddenly increase so much? Didn't I do anything to Yuan Che?"
It would have been nice if her fund could have grown like this back then.
[You are not only related to Yuan Che, but also your father, sister, etc., but this time it seems to be because of Princess Lin Yang. 】
Sheng Shaoqing:????
"Me and Princess Linyang??"
[Because Wei Zhen spread rumors about you and Yunzhi, Princess Linyang's affection for you doubled. She heard the rumors that you could not ask for Yunzhi, so she could only keep giving in on government affairs. She felt that we were in the same boat, and she already regarded you as
We are fellow patients who care about each other.]
Sheng Shaoqing:......
She retracted her opinion that Princess Lin Yang had a high IQ. How could she believe the rumors were so unfounded???
【Being trapped by love is inevitable.】
"Is it because of that facial expression?"
[Yes, it has been half a month since the princess detained him in the backyard. There are rumors and rumors everywhere, but the man still refuses to obey. The princess has no choice but to throw the trap at him. 】
He is a man who steals by clever tricks, but he has a lot of backbone. Even the princess of the dynasty dared to refuse him, but I don’t know if he is as capable as Ji Wenxuan.
Yuan Che also thought silently along the way. In the past, when his father was still alive, he once commented that Li Lingjiang was a very talented person, but his behavior was quite controversial. If someone could lead him to the right path, he could be reused.
Just now his mother mentioned Li Lingjiang of the Li family in Jiangzhou, and it occurred to him that his concubine's younger brother was Li Lingjiang.
However, the Li family's plot has already involved shaking the foundation of the country. According to the instructions of the Taifu, the entire Li family should be punished.
