"My concubine is here." Concubine Jin did not dare to sit still, and stood up weakly and replied.
"Where did Yanhong go?" Xuan Yi asked.
"As far as I'm concerned, Your Majesty, Yanhong left the palace and hasn't come back yet," Concubine Jin replied.
"Let me tell you, Yanhong can't come back?" Xuan Yi ignored Concubine Jin's startled eyes and continued: "Half a month ago, someone found a woman's body in the well of Leng Palace. The body was completely covered with wounds.
Festering and beyond recognition, she has obviously been dead for a long time, but it can be verified by experienced old palace maids that this female corpse is that of the palace maid of Yunxiu Palace - Yanhong."
"No, Yanhong will not lie to me. She asked someone to tell me that she has something urgent to do and leaves the palace..." Concubine Jin seemed to have thought of something and swallowed what she was going to say next.
"Yes, she asked someone to tell you that she left the palace. In fact, she did not leave the palace, but was brutally killed and thrown into a cold well." Xuan Yi's words were like the tip of a needle, giving a picture
The tight net made a hole.
Concubine Jin slumped on the stool and couldn't recover for a long time. Tears flowed out. Yanhong was her personal girl. She had been with her since she was a child, and now she left her like this. Concubine Jin suppressed her grief and asked: "Excuse me
Your Majesty, who killed Yan Hong?"
Xuan Yi looked at Grandma Wang with an evil smile and said, "I'll start it for you, don't you want to say something?"
Xuan Yi's words caused Grandma Wang's psychological defense to completely collapse. She nodded gently with tears in her eyes and said, "It was the slave who arranged for Yan Hong to be tricked into the Leng Palace. After she was knocked unconscious, she was thrown into the well in the courtyard of the Leng Palace.
inside."
Concubine Jin rushed up and hit Grandma Wang like crazy and said, "Why did you do this? Yanhong, what did she do wrong? Why did you kill her?"
"Your Majesty." Bizhu stepped forward to help Concubine Jin, who was out of control, and said, "My Majesty, your Majesty, don't be excited. The imperial doctor said you shouldn't be too excited."
"Yanhong..." Concubine Jin's long shout could not bring back Yanhong's life.
Bizhu helped Jin Fei sit down beside her, and Xuan Yi continued: "Why did you want to kill Yan Hong?"
"Because... because..., Your Majesty, I don't want to live in this world anymore. Please order me to die." Grandma Wang suddenly cried loudly and begged. The loyalty she showed to her master made some people present relax.
Take a breath.
"Don't think that I don't dare to kill you. Do you just want to help your master take the blame? What do you think you are? If you die, your master will not say that you are loyal to the master, but will only feel that there is less of a threat.
That’s all, and your nephew Xiao Yizi, do you also want to sacrifice yourself to preserve your master’s position?”
Grandma Wang was stunned. She thought carefully about Xuan Yi's words, but the master was kind to her and she could not be ungrateful. She calmed down and made up her mind and said: "Your Majesty, slave... I have nothing to say."
With a "clang" sound, Xuanyi was so angry that he smashed the teacup on the table to the ground. Grandma Wang's heart was almost frightened. She closed her eyes and waited for the coming of the holy wrath. She didn't want Xuanyi to smile evilly.
One voice said: "Do you think that if you don't speak, no one else will speak?"
Grandma Wang thought that the emperor was exploiting her. What should she be afraid of now if she was not even afraid of death? Everyone in the room held their breath, guessing what Xuan Yi meant. Is there anyone here who is an accomplice of Grandma Wang?
"Bizhu." Xuan Yi shouted.
"My servant is here." When she heard the emperor calling her, she asked a palace attendant to support Concubine Jin for her, then walked to Xuan Yi and knelt down in front of her.
"Who do you think planted the red flowers for Jin Fei's tea?"
Bizhu lowered her head and said nothing, feeling a chill in her palms. She timidly replied: "Yes...it was done by Concubine Die. She was jealous that Concubine Jin was pregnant with a dragon seed, so she poisoned Concubine Jin and her child."
." She suddenly said calmly, with a risk-taking tone in her tone.
"You're talking nonsense, did you see it?" Lan Zihui stepped forward and asked angrily.
Bizhu glanced at Lan Zihui tremblingly and quickly lowered her head.
"General Lan, retreat." Xuan Yi ordered.
"Yes." Lan Zihui responded and stepped aside, holding the handle of the knife tightly with his right hand.
"I'm afraid the jealous person is not Concubine Jin but your real master." As soon as she said this, everyone present looked like her at the same time, and she also looked at Xuan Yi in shock.
"I don't know what the emperor is talking about? Your master is Concubine Jin." Bizhu lowered her head again and replied without looking at Xuan Yi.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean? Bizhu has another master?" Concubine Jin couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and walked to Xuan Yi and asked.
"Concubine Jin, don't you understand yet?" Xuan Yi pointed at Grandma Wang and Bizhu and said, "Look at the two people kneeling on the ground. They are the culprits who caused you to lose your child."
"No, Bizhu will not harm me. She is as good to me as Yanhong."
"Okay? She is good to you. Why is she so good to you? She took the opportunity to put red flowers in your tea."
"Your Majesty, I don't have any slaves." Bizhu argued.
"Bold slave, you still dare not to admit it. Do you really think that I don't know anything? You and Grandma Wang colluded to take advantage of the opportunity to kill Yan Hong, so that Concubine Jin would have no caring people around her, and then she would be harmed.
Concubine Jin had a miscarriage and framed Concubine Die. You two are heinous women and still haven't told the truth. Come on."
"My servant is here." Two eunuchs came up and replied, "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
Xuan Yi pointed at them and said: "Palm mouth."
"According to the order." The two eunuchs came forward and slapped Nanny Wang and Bi Zhu's face one after another. Bloodshot eyes oozed from the corners of Bi Zhu's mouth, and tears rolled in her eyes and finally flowed out.
, everyone present couldn't bear to look at it, both of their faces became red and swollen.
"As long as you say it, I can exempt you from the crime of exterminating your family. You also have family members, and you don't want them to be implicated." Xuan Yi continued to say heartbreakingly. Bizhu finally couldn't stand it anymore, pushed away the eunuch and knelt down to beat her.
He walked up to Xuan Yi and said: "Your Majesty, I will give you an explanation. I will give you an explanation."
Xuan Yi waved his hand to signal the eunuch in charge to step back, looked at Bizhu and said, "Explain it."
"Yes, it was the slave who put the red flowers into the tea while Princess Butterfly was serving the tea." She said with tears.
Concubine Jin collapsed when she heard this. She knelt down on the ground and looked at Bizhu and said, "I think I have never treated you badly, why do you want to harm me?"
"Your Majesty, my slave has a low life and is destined to take orders from others. Please kill me," Bizhu cried.
"It's easy to want to die, and I have no intention of letting you go. Tell me quickly, who is your master?" Xuan Yi asked.
Grandma Wang, who had not spoken for a long time, shouted: "Bizhu, you have to think about it. Without the master, your father's illness cannot be cured."
Bi Zhu turned back to look at Grandma Wang with tears in her eyes and said: "Mother Wang, I know that the master is kind to me, but if I don't tell him, it will not only be me who will die, but my whole family. Think about it, you also have a family."
You sacrificed your nephew, how can you be worthy of your brother, and how do you explain it to him? Do you want to use their lives as a favor? I can't do it, my mother died when I was a child, my father and I
My brother supports my brother and I, and I don’t want them to die. I’m not afraid of going to hell, so I want to speak out.”
Grandma Wang was speechless. The instinct to survive made her hesitate between repaying her kindness and her family. She was shaken. She glanced at someone standing next to her from the corner of her eye. This momentary change was tightly grasped by Xuan Yi.
