Hongli stroked his face hard, looked at Qiluo standing aside and said, "Concubine Rong, what on earth is going on?"
Qiluo knelt down and said with all kinds of grievances: "There is absolutely nothing that the imperial concubine said. I just saw that there was some mess on the imperial desk, so I wanted to clean it up for the emperor. Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine suddenly broke in.
When I came in, I accidentally lost my hand and dropped the memorial to the ground.
Then, the imperial concubine ignored the dissuasion of the concubine and read the memorial. When she saw that Amin Dao had been assassinated, she said that it was the concubine's two uncles who did it. She also said that the two uncles did not really surrender to the Qing Dynasty. The concubine had already explained that.
This matter has nothing to do with the two uncles, but the imperial concubine still refuses to believe it."
Xianyue said coldly: "You said it has nothing to do with it, but what about the Xiaojinchuan incident? Is it also irrelevant?"
Qiluo said hurriedly: "My uncle is already investigating that matter, and he will definitely get to the bottom of it. In short, it has nothing to do with the two uncles. It's because some people don't want to return to the army and live in peace with the Qing Dynasty, so they did such a thing."
Xianyue glanced at her and said to Hongli: "Your Majesty, don't believe her sweet words. If she didn't have any evil intentions in her heart, how could she peek at the book?"
Qiluo said with an innocent face: "I said that I just wanted to sort it out for the emperor. Why don't you believe me, my queen? Or do you mean that you never believed me at all?"
When Xianyue was about to talk again, Hongli said displeasedly: "That's enough. I finally rested for a while, but you guys kept arguing and making people uncomfortable. Also, Imperial Concubine, do you still remember that 'the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics'"
'This sentence?"
"I remember..." Before Xianyue finished speaking, Hongli said: "Since I remember, why do I still interfere in the affairs of the government? Do you know that this is a taboo?"
Seeing that he was angry, Xianyue quickly knelt down and said, "I know I'm guilty, but this matter is related to the safety of the Qing Dynasty. I really dare not not mention it. Please forgive me." Faced with Xianyue's words.
, Hongli sneered and said: "You are concerned about the country and the people. So, I still want to thank you?"
Xianyue lowered her head and said, "I don't dare, I."
Hongli snorted softly and said: "As early as when I first received this letter, I ordered people from eight hundred miles to rush and inquired about the situation of returning to the department, but there was no change; at the same time, Polonido
He went to Beijing, saying that he had found the person who colluded with Wang Qiu.
He is a general in his command. This person has always been opposed to surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, but Polonido did not expect him to do such a thing. Now, he has been escorted to Beijing and handed over to me. How about you?
Do you still want to say that Huibu has evil intentions?"
Xianyue gritted her teeth and said, "I always feel that Concubine Rong is acting suspiciously, so returning to the tribe may not be a true submission."
Qiluo said excitedly: "Huang Guifei, you keep saying that I have never truly surrendered to the Hui tribe. What is your intention? Is it possible that you want to start a war between the Qing Dynasty and the Hui tribe?"
"Under the flames of war, the people suffer. I never want to see war, but I don't want to see anyone deceiving the Holy Spirit, which is detrimental to our Qing Dynasty!"
"You!" Qiluo seemed so angry that she couldn't speak. She climbed up to Hongli and cried: "Your Majesty, since I entered the palace, I have been devoted to the Emperor wholeheartedly. I have never had the slightest thought of him.
It is not like what the imperial concubine said. The two uncles sincerely surrender to the emperor and hope that the Qing Dynasty and the Hui tribe will be reconciled forever and there will be no more wars."
Seeing Qiluo crying so hard, Hongli couldn't bear it. He put his shoes on the ground, helped her up and said, "I know, don't cry anymore." As he spoke, he saw Qiluo's red and swollen left cheek.
, said in surprise: "What's wrong with your face?"
Qiluo sobbed: "I just wanted to stop the imperial concubine from disturbing the emperor, but she couldn't help but slap me."
Seeing that she was telling lies with her eyes open, Zhichun said eagerly: "You are talking nonsense. My master has never even touched you, so how could he slap you? You clearly have the intention to wrong my master."
Faced with her accusation, Qiluo cried more and more sadly and said with choked sobs: "Your Majesty, you have seen that although I have received divine grace and been named the fourth concubine, in fact, no one in the harem really respects me.
I am a concubine. Even the maids around the imperial concubine do not take me seriously and scold me at will."
After Hongli comforted her, he scolded: "Zhichun, you are so brave, you dare to be rude to Concubine Rong."
Just as Zhichun was about to speak, Xianyue said: "Your Majesty, calm down. Zhichun did not mean to be disrespectful to Concubine Rong. He was actually angry when he saw Concubine Rong confusing right and wrong, so he was rude for a moment. I hope the Emperor will forgive me."
"I'm confusing right and wrong?" Qiluo wiped away her tears and said, "Then tell me where the injury on my face came from. Could it be that I slapped it myself? You are an imperial concubine, how can you talk so much?
lie!"
Seeing Hongli's wandering eyes, Zhichun ignored Xiayue's dissuasion and said: "Your Majesty, I can swear to God that the master has never slapped Concubine Rong. She not only wants to wrong the master, but also wants to separate the emperor and the master. Her intentions are extremely sinister.
!”
This time, Qiluo didn't say anything. She just covered her face with a handkerchief and kept crying. Hongli rubbed his aching forehead, held Qiluo's shoulders and comforted him: "Okay, don't cry. As long as I'm here, everyone can help you."
I can’t make you suffer.”
Xianyue looked pale and said: "The emperor said this, does it mean he believes what Concubine Rong said?"
Hongli looked gloomy and said: "Since you came in, I have been listening to you criticize Concubine Rong. Even the maids around you have shouted at Concubine Rong. I have already told you that there is nothing suspicious about returning to the ministry. You
Not to mention that the desire to return to the Ministry is not good for me, the Qing Dynasty, but Concubine Rong is said by you to be like a spy lurking around me."
Xianyue secretly took a breath and said: "Perhaps my concubine's words just now were a little more intense, but Concubine Rong is indeed suspicious. I hope the emperor..."
Hongli interrupted her angrily, "That's enough. I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore, and I don't want to see you again. I'll go back to your Yanxi Palace immediately!"
This sentence is undoubtedly very serious. Xianyue covered her chest with her hands and said with difficulty: "Your Majesty, why can't you listen to a word that I have said so much? Is it that I am not as trustworthy as Concubine Rong? She said
If I am wrong, the emperor will think that I am wrong, so if she says it is snowing now, will the emperor believe it?!"
Hongli walked up to her and said coldly: "I told you to get out, didn't you hear what I said?"
"Your Majesty, my master is devoted to you, how could you do this..." Before Zhichun could finish her words, Hongli slapped her hard on the face, "Did I allow you to speak? For the sake of the imperial concubine, I
I've been tolerant to you again and again, but you've gone too far, damn it!"
Hearing the word "death", Xia Yue's beautiful face turned pale, and she quickly stood in front of Zhi Chun, who was lying on the ground, and said in a panic: "Zhi Chun made a mistake for a moment, please forgive me, my concubine, I will definitely discipline her well when I get back!"
Hongli snorted coldly, turned around and said, "I'll say it one last time, stand down!"
