Concubine Qin pointed at Ping'er with an ugly face and said sternly: "You Ping'er, you are talking nonsense and wantonly slandering me in front of the emperor. It is really abominable. For your crime, I will die ten times and a hundred times."
It’s not an exaggeration.”
Compared with Ping'er's shivering, Tu Lichen would not let Concubine Qin's words scare her. He stood up on crutches and said, "Concubine Qin is so angry. Isn't it because Ping'er said what you did?"
Are you out yet?"
Concubine Qin stared at Tu Lichen and said: "Master Tu, do you even believe what this yellow-haired girl says? There is not a word of truth in her mouth."
"According to what the concubine said, what she said in Kunning Palace before was also false? Because you said there was not a single lie in her mouth." Both of us have been in the wind and waves for decades. When it comes to eloquence,
How could Turrichen lose to Concubine Qin?
Concubine Qin stared at him for a long time, then nodded slowly and said: "Based on Master Tu's words, does he believe that Ping'er just said that? But don't forget, it was the queen who caused trouble in front of the emperor first, and then the emperor
Ping'er was summoned to testify. Even if I can instruct Ping'er to lie, how can I instruct the queen to do things? This doesn't make sense at all."
Even if Princess Qin didn't say anything, Yinzhen also had this question in his mind. He clearly remembered that it was Nala who first mentioned the matter of Ling Ruo and Yunli in front of him, and then many other things happened.
If Nala was really innocent, why did he mention that incident so coincidentally and make himself suspicious of Ling Ruo.
Before Ping'er could speak, Tu Lichen already said: "There is nothing unreasonable about this at all. Although Princess Qin cannot control the Queen, she can take precautions in advance. Once the matter reaches the ears of the Emperor, no matter who is the person who spreads it,
You can push the matter to the Queen herself, and Prince Guo's palace will be completely ignored."
Concubine Qin said in a deep voice: "Master Tu, are you obviously going to pour dirty water on me?"
Tu Lichen raised his eyelids and said: "I don't dare, I'm just telling the truth. If the concubine is to blame, she must blame her unclean hands and feet for not removing Ping'er in time, which made the truth come out. Maybe this is the so-called Tian Huihui,
Don’t miss anything!”
"You!" Concubine Qin was angry and hating Tu Lichen's words, but she could do nothing about it, because the fact was just like what Tu Lichen said, she was indeed careless. At first, because there was only Hongying beside her, she could not accept the consequences.
Ping'er, who was unable to walk after being tortured with the cane, was brought back in time. Unexpectedly, Ping'er never appeared again. It was only known that she left the palace, but she did not know where she went.
At this time, Yunli, who had never spoken much, raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that E Niang will not do such a frame-up. Please investigate clearly."
Tu Lichen was unwilling to be outdone and said: "Your Majesty, I think that now the truth of the matter has been revealed. Everything was done by Ping'er, the envoy of Princess Qin, and has nothing to do with the Queen. I ask Your Majesty to clear the Queen's name."
Upon hearing this, Princess Qin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Tu Lichen is clearly deliberately trying to excuse the Queen. Maybe even Ping'er's words were planned by him in advance."
Tu Lichen was about to speak when Yinzhen raised his hand and said, "Okay, you guys, stop talking now. I still have something to ask Ping'er."
When he opened his mouth, naturally no one said anything more. Yinzhen stood up and walked to Ping'er, who was stiff with nervousness, and said in a cold voice: "You said it was Princess Qin who instigated you to wrongly accuse the Queen?"
"Yes." After Ping'er nodded, he said again: "Although you are just a slave, you should understand how serious a crime it is to wrongly accuse the queen. Why do you still follow the words of Princess Qin just because she is your master?
"
Ping'er dug hard at the cracks in the bricks on the floor, so hard that she even broke the nail on her index finger. She endured the pain in her fingertips and lowered her head and said: "If you go back to the emperor, because Princess Qin promised to be a slave, she couldn't refuse it."
The benefits. She said..." Ping'er quickly raised her head
She glanced at Concubine Qin who was standing aside, and whispered: "Actually, since I met the Seventeenth Master, I have always admired him and regarded him as the best man in the world. Concubine Qin said that as long as I am willing to rely on her
If you do it, let me become the concubine of the Seventeenth Master..."
Before Ping'er finished speaking, Concubine Qin was already excited and said: "You are a bold and mean servant, and you talk nonsense. With your background and character, how can you be worthy of becoming Yunli's concubine and Fujin? I will never promise you such words!"
"
Under her scolding, Ping'er said with a hint of sarcasm: "Yes, the concubine had no intention of really giving the slave to the Seventeenth Master. The concubine said this to the slave just to coax the slave to help you deal with it.
Queen, if I hadn’t woken up in time and not returned to Prince Guo’s palace, I would have been a corpse by now.”
"You... you, a cheap servant, dare to slander me like this, you deserve to die!" Concubine Qin scolded Ping'er with a pale face, then knelt down to Yinzhen and said: "Your Majesty, I have been since the 33rd year of Kangxi's reign.
Ever since he entered the palace to serve the late emperor in 1999, he has been diligent and self-responsible and has never done anything evil to others. In the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi's reign, Meng Xian
The emperor took pity on me and made me his concubine. After he succeeded to the throne, he honored me as his concubine so that I could enjoy my old age in peace. I have always been grateful to the emperor over the years. How could I do such a thing for my own selfishness?
.On the contrary, Master Turichen found Ping'er, a cheap servant, and slandered me in every possible way. I don't know what his intentions are."
Faced with her words, Tu Lichen said: "By being like this, Princess Qin really responded to one sentence - the thief calls for the thief to be caught."
Concubine Qin glared angrily when she heard this, "Tu Lichen, I respect you as a veteran of two dynasties, but don't go too far! You said that I did this. Apart from Ping'er, what evidence is there?
"
Tu Lichen ignored her and cupped his hands towards Yinzhen and said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Qin just said it herself. The Emperor respects her as the concubine so that she can enjoy her old age in peace. But if something happens to the prince, the so-called "enjoyable old age" will become a problem.
It’s a joke, so I have reason to believe that Concubine Qin instigated Ping’er to frame the Queen in order to preserve her status and glory.”
"You're talking nonsense!" Concubine Qin's chest couldn't help but rise and fall, but not entirely because of anger, but also because of fear, the fear of being poked in the center by Tu Lichen.
Listening to the two people bickering there, Yinzhen said impatiently: "Okay, this is all your conjecture. Is there any other evidence to prove that Concubine Qin did everything?"
This sentence immediately made Tuli Chen speechless, because he only held Ping'er's chess piece in his hand and nothing else. Looking at the current situation, Ping'er alone could obviously not make Yin
Zhen believes it.
At this moment, Ping'er remembered something and said: "Your Majesty, when Concubine Qin said those words to the slave, there was still someone else there, that is Concubine Qin's maid Hongying. Your Majesty can send her a message.
