Hongli obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't speak like Wu, but said: "What evidence is there for the Queen to say this?"
Xianyue said nothing, but turned her gaze to Wu. Hongli glanced at the latter and said, "You go out first."
The Wu family was extremely fond of Hongli, but she refused to obey him and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty..."
Hongli's expression darkened and he said coldly: "I'm letting you out!"
Wu was not a person who didn't know how to look at people. Seeing that Hongli was displeased, she had no choice but to retreat reluctantly. After she left, Xianyue said, "Does the Emperor still remember Wei Xiuyan?"
Hongli was surprised that she suddenly mentioned Wei Xiuyan, who had been dead for many years, "Of course I remember, what's the matter?"
"Does your Majesty know who told Wei Xiuyan that Yong Yan could make up for Yong Cun's fate?" Her words made Hongli's eyes twitch and he leaned slightly, "The Queen said this, but she already knew it?"
Xianyue closed her eyes and said with unspeakable pain: "Actually, Wei Xiuyan had already been found out when she died. I just missed the old friendship, and she repeatedly cried and begged my concubine, and said
She will change her past from now on, so I concealed it for her; but in the end... everything was a lie, and she had no intention of repenting at all. Instead, she got worse and harmed people again and again."
Hongli frowned tightly, "Who is the person you are talking about?"
Xianyue opened her mouth and uttered four words with difficulty, "It's Concubine Hui!"
"Who?" Hongli thought he heard wrongly. It wasn't until Xianyue said it again that he was convinced that she was talking about Xia Qing. He immediately shook his head and said: "Impossible, I have never mentioned Yongcun to Concubine Hui. Moreover,
, she has always been on good terms with you, there is absolutely no reason to do such a thing."
"Of course the emperor has never mentioned it to Concubine Hui, but what about Huang Ying? Doesn't he know about it too?"
Hongli thought to himself: "You said Huang Ying told Concubine Hui about Yong Cang?"
"Huang Ying was punished by the emperor to go to the cleaning department because of Wei Jingxuan's incident. Later, he was able to return to the Yangxin Palace because Concubine Hui interceded for him. There will be no good things without reason in this world, so I guess that he
He should have told Concubine Hui about Yongxun."
Hongli thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, what you said doesn't make sense. Even if Huang Ying really told Concubine Hui about Yong Cang, she would have no reason to tell Wei Xiuyan."
Xianyue sighed and said: "Back then, Brother Eleven died in order to save Yongxun. Concubine Hui had always been worried about this. After knowing that Yongxun was destined to die, she even believed that Yongxun had killed Yongxuan.
With such thoughts, she hated it so much
Yong Cun, He Jia was not allowed to interact with Yong Cang. After learning that Yong Yan could 'complete' Yong Cang's destiny, she tried to tell Wei Xiuyan about the matter and asked her to take Yong Yan away from Guangxiu Garden, so that Yong Cang could
He died because his destiny could not be fulfilled."
Her words made Hongli unbelievable and he shook his head repeatedly, "It's impossible, she wouldn't do such a thing, don't talk nonsense!"
Hongli's rebuke made Xianyue's chest throb. Since when did Hongli believe that Xia Qing was better than her? He tried hard to suppress the pain in his chest and said hoarsely: "What about the third brother? Is it just a coincidence?"
Hongli frowned and said, "Why are you talking about Yongzhang again?"
"If I remember correctly, the reason why the emperor released the third elder brother from the clan's residence was because Concubine Hui interceded for him. As a result, the third elder brother colluded with the rebels, plotted to murder Yong Cang, and even tried to overthrow the Qing Dynasty.
Jiangshan; Behind every incident there is the shadow of Concubine Hui. Could it be that
The emperor still thinks that she has nothing to do with all this?" Without waiting for him to say anything, Xianyue added: "There is also Yongyan, who has always been well behaved before. Once when he went to play in the imperial garden, he met Hejia and ate a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake given by her.
, and then he got a strange disease that all imperial doctors could not diagnose."
Hongli's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you think Hejia also had a hand in harming Yongyan?"
"Princess Hejia is kind-hearted by nature, and I believe she will not collude with her mother-in-law, so the most likely possibility is that Concubine Hui is also taking advantage of her own daughter."
"Xia Qing...Xia Qing..." Hongli murmured and repeated this all-too-familiar name, his hands trembling non-stop. The next moment, he shouted sharply: "Pass Huang Ying!"
After a while, Huang Ying opened the door and walked in. She glanced at Xianyue who was kneeling on the ground calmly and said respectfully: "I wonder what the emperor's orders are?"
Hongli stared at him with cold eyes and said: "I ask you, but will you...will..." Xianyue had just told him, but now she couldn't remember it, her memory seemed to be fragmented.
Same, in fact, he often feels like this recently. He always feels that his memory is not as good as before. Things in the past are becoming more and more blurred, and some of them are even more difficult to remember. It seems to be because he is getting older.
After thinking hard for a moment, he finally remembered Xiayue's words and said, "But you told Concubine Hui about Yongxun's fate?"
Huang Ying's whole body tensed up. She never expected that something that happened so many years ago would be revealed again. Needless to say, it must have been said by the queen next to her. Her ghost is really lingering.
"Hurry up and tell me?!" Faced with Hongli's scolding, Huang Ying quickly knelt down and said eagerly: "Back then, the emperor repeatedly told me not to leak the information about the twelfth prince. How could I dare to tell Concubine Hui?
Unjustly accused!”
Hongli snorted coldly: "If you tell me now, I can spare your life, otherwise I will cut you into pieces!"
Huang Ying looked aggrieved and said: "I have indeed never done this. Please give me a clear warning from your Majesty!"
"Don't say yes? Okay!" Hongli uttered the last word, called Xiao Wu in and said: "Take him to the Criminal Punishment Department. As long as he doesn't die, let them torture him however they want."
Xiao Wu was startled by Hongli's words and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I wonder what Huang Ying has committed?"
Hongli said coldly: "Didn't you hear me telling you to take you down? Or do you also want to go to the Shenxing Division to stay for a few days?"
Seeing that Hong Li was angry, Xiao Wu didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly took Huang Ying down. When he was pulled down, the latter kept shouting the word "Unjust".
Hongli took a deep breath, stared at Xianyue who was still kneeling on the ground and said, "What you said before were all your guesses. Do you have any solid evidence?"
"No." Xianyue raised her head and said, "But as long as the emperor orders a search of Yonghe Palace, I believe that evidence will be found." As she said that, she said with tears in her eyes: "This morning the imperial physician of the Song Dynasty came to check Yongyan's pulse. His body was
He is already extremely weak, and I'm afraid if he gets sick a few more times, he will..." She choked and stopped what she was saying, and then said, "The only one who can save him now is the Emperor. I beg the Emperor to save him!"
Hongli stared at him without saying a word, a complicated look flashed in his eyes. After a long time, he said to Xiao Wu who walked in again: "Show off to Yonghe Palace!"
