Li Bin really didn't expect it and was extremely shocked.
"Guess." Su Rong looked at her and speculated: "And His Highness the Fourth Highness should also know this evidence, otherwise, he would not ask to go to the East Palace, nor would he be sure that you are innocent. For your sake, he will die to prove your innocence.
.”
Li Bin nodded slowly, admitted that what she said was right, and said in a low voice: "In Feng Si's home, under the big black cabinet in his room, the third brick contains the things my father left me.
I don’t know what the evidence is, but my father said that if one day he dies and my life is in danger, please let me take it out. I don’t have anyone I trust, so I dare not take it. You are right, I don’t believe King Ruian.
He is too tactful and too good at sizing up situations. He may not be able to help the Fourth Highness and me who have no foundation."
Su Rong thought to herself that she had indeed come to the right place and she had really gained something. She nodded and said, "Is there anything else you want to say, Concubine Li?"
Concubine Li thought for a while and picked up a few more people and things in the palace to talk about. One of them involved the precious concubine. It was a very small matter, but Su Rong was surprised, "You said
My precious concubine, has she ever asked His Highness the Crown Prince for a white fox skin?"
"Yes." Concubine Li looked at the white fox fur on Su Rong's body, "If I hadn't seen you wearing this white fox fur cloak, I wouldn't have remembered such an incident. It must have been two or three years ago, but the prince
His Highness did not agree. This matter was said in front of His Majesty. His Majesty looked unhappy at that time and even reprimanded His Highness the Crown Prince, saying that it was just a few white fox skins. As the Crown Prince, His Highness was too stingy, and His Highness the Crown Prince said,
The white fox furs he put in the warehouse were to be kept to make white fox fur cloaks and given to the future Crown Princess. He also hoped that the Imperial Concubine would forgive her. That was the first time His Highness the Crown Prince contradicted His Majesty, saying that His Majesty was rich all over the world, and the Imperial Concubine wanted to
What, His Majesty is not satisfied. He posted an imperial list asking for a few white fox skins from all over the world. It is still easy to get them, so as not to steal his son. His few white fox skins were beaten by himself and given to the noble concubine. It is not appropriate.
His Majesty was so angry that the government and the public had complained about His Majesty's doting on the concubine alone for many years. What's more, for a few white fox skins, it was too much fanfare. It was definitely impossible to post the imperial list. Your Majesty was also afraid of what the courtiers would say.
He. Later, the imperial concubine had the final say on this matter. She didn’t necessarily want it. She just wanted clothes made of white fox fur, which were warm and beautiful. His Majesty didn’t have them in his treasury. Now His Highness the Crown Prince has said this,
Naturally, she can't rob the future crown princess's things, otherwise people will laugh to death if word spreads about it. This matter will just go away."
After listening to this, Su Rong was thoughtful.
Concubine Li looked at her and said, "This white fox fur cloak is really beautiful. It is indeed warm and beautiful. But did His Highness the Crown Prince give it to her? I didn't expect His Highness to be willing to give it to Miss Su Qi. After all, in this capital, there are many people besides
No one in the East Palace has white fox skins anymore."
Su Rong nodded, very calmly, "Well, it was given by His Highness the Crown Prince. I am the cousin of His Highness the Crown Prince, and I have also been helpful to His Highness. It is generally worthy of receiving a cloak from His Highness the Crown Prince."
Regardless of whether he had ever said it would be given to the future crown princess, it would be hers if he gave it to her.
No wonder the emperor saw her today and looked at the white fox fur cloak she was wearing, and must have remembered it.
Su Rong found it really interesting.
She stood up and said to Concubine Li: "Concubine Li, take care of yourself. Your Highness is very filial. If you can survive this disaster, you will have a good life in the future."
After all, the fourth prince has taken refuge in the East Palace. As long as the prince does not fall, the fourth prince and his mother will have a good life.
Li Bin nodded, feeling more energetic and said, "Okay, thank you, and I'd like to lend you some good words."
After meeting Concubine Li, Su Rong went to see Concubine Xian, Concubine De... and finally met the emperor's former chief eunuch Yu An.
Yu An never thought that he would be in trouble, but now that he was in trouble, he really felt that he had died unjustly. How could he have imagined that he would suffer such a big mistake on a little palace maid and then be involved in such a big case.
During the few days he was imprisoned, he was almost reduced to human form by torture. In the past, when he was a popular person around the emperor, everyone supported him. Now that he is in trouble, although not everyone will step on him, no one dares to come close.
No one dared to help him, and they wished they had never known him, for fear of being involved in a major case.
He was already old and had been raised to have tender skin and tender flesh. His body was more delicate than that of the emperor's concubine. How could he have suffered from being imprisoned? The daily meals were half-cooked and he had a stomachache after eating them, even though he was not used.
What kind of torture, but the food was cold and hard, and he couldn't bear it.
Yu An felt that he was finished. If this continued, he would be finished before the day when the case was concluded.
But no one came to save him.
Over the years, he has offended countless people. After all, he depends on the emperor for food. As long as he coaxes the emperor well and serves him well, he will feel that everything will be fine. Even the prince, your majesty does not like to suppress the prince. Although he
I won’t step on him, but I won’t do anything good to the prince either.
Now that he is in trouble, many people hope that he will die. If he dies and vacates his position, someone will immediately take over.
When Su Rong arrived, she saw Yu An hunched over, clutching his stomach, and his face was pale and in great pain. His white-faced face now looked full of grayness.
Seeing Su Rong, Yu An's eyes widened, especially when his eyes fell on the white fox fur cloak she was wearing.
Su Rong thought to herself, it seemed like she would have to wear this white fox fur cloak more often in the palace.
"Miss Su Qi?" Yu An rubbed his eyes, almost thinking that he was dazzled by what he saw. Because he was now guilty, he didn't think that Su Rong could see him. After all, no matter how he thought about it, he would never think of it.
Su Rongneng took over the investigation of this case.
"Well, it's me, Eunuch Yu." Su Rong nodded.
Yu An was surprised, "You are here..."
Su Rong said: "Your Majesty appointed me to assist King Ruian in the trial."
Yu An was even more shocked.
No wonder he was shocked. In fact, with Su Rong's status, neither the concubine of Jiangzhou Governor's Office nor the princess of Nanchu should interfere with Daliang's court affairs and serious cases. The former is not qualified, while the latter is not.
She is the princess of Nanchu, and her status is inappropriate.
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Su Rong took out the "I am here in person" token given to her by the emperor and showed it to Yu An.
Yu An saw it clearly and was so shocked that he forgot about his stomachache for a moment, "This, this..."
Su Rong sat down and said, "Eunuch Yu, I am here to investigate the case. If you are involved in this case and tell the truth, His Majesty will remember your kindness and will definitely give you a whole body. If you are not involved, then you
What’s more important is to explain. If what you confess is beneficial to the progress of the case, then it is not impossible for you to return to His Majesty and continue to be the great father-in-law who makes all the changes."
Yu An looked at Su Rong and didn't answer for a while.
Su Rong stared at him, "Eunuch Yu, you have been serving His Majesty since you were a child, and you are the oldest. Even after so many years, you have nothing in your hands, and you cannot secure your position as the first father-in-law beside His Majesty. No matter it is
Whether they are courtiers, concubines in the harem, or slaves, more or less, you should all know what they have done openly and secretly."
Yu An smiled bitterly, "If this old slave had such great ability, he would not have been involved in this case and been harmed to this extent by a little girl."
Su Ronxiao, "Eunuch Yu, I'm not sitting here to listen to you talking nonsense. What I want to hear is something useful, or evidence that you can give me, or evidence that you have doubts."
It’s also okay with the object.”
Yu An suddenly stopped complaining.
Su Rong looked at him, "Eunuch Yu, you can only believe me. As I sit here, I will decide whether you will keep a whole corpse or whether you will return to His Majesty's favor and continue to be the first father-in-law. There is only one chance.
In front of you, it depends on whether you cherish it or not. In short, as long as I leave this door, you will have no chance."
