Everyone looked around and saw the emperor walking majestically with a gloomy face. Behind him were the ministers, all of whom looked not very good.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder, wasn't His Majesty discussing matters with these ministers? Why did he look like this?
While everyone was wondering, the majestic voice sounded again, saying: "Bring that man up!"
At this time, all the ministers had already taken their seats, and the emperor was already sitting next to the queen. The queen glanced at the emperor, full of suspicion. She looked down the stage and saw a guard pulling a palace maid up and throwing her to the ground.
The emperor's face was filled with evil spirits, and he stared at the palace maid coldly and said, "Speak of it! Who made you do this? How dare you bring poison into the palace! How brave you are. I thought I was deaf or blind!"
"
When Bei Tangjin heard these words, he quickly glanced at the emperor and saw that the emperor's face was extremely gloomy and his lips were trembling. He was obviously extremely angry before he said such words.
The medicines in the palace are all obtained from the imperial hospital. The concubines and princesses rarely bring medicines in from outside the palace. Even if they are brought into the palace, they must go through strict inspections.
Being able to evade strict investigation and bring poison into the palace is like a challenge to the imperial power. It's strange that the emperor is not angry!
"Your Majesty, this servant did it herself. My brother was a subordinate of General Yurong and died in the border battle. I hated General Yurong and heard that she wanted to do the sword dance, so I thought of this way to avenge my brother!
If it weren't for General Yurong, my brother would not have died in the battle! I hate you!" the maid said with anger.
However, her voice trembled slightly because of fear and anger. Even so, everyone in the audience was shocked when they heard such words!
The Feng family and the Wang family have been arguing about co-writing this matter for so long, but it has nothing to do with them at all?
It turned out to be a palace maid avenging her brother?
Beitang Jin was extremely surprised and stepped forward and asked, "I wonder who your brother is?"
The maid replied simply: "You are a great general, my brother is just a nobody, how can the general remember it?"
Bei Tangjin asked strangely: "Then what you said is really strange. There are thousands of unknown soldiers, and they all fight for the country. If the relatives of my soldiers were like you, I would die a thousand times.
Ten thousand times? According to what you said, if I die in battle, will I seek revenge from Your Majesty?"
"General Yurong, you don't have to talk nonsense with this person. If you are poisoning, then where did you get the poison? Where did you, a little palace maid, get the poison?" Feng Sheng suddenly stepped forward and asked.
.
At this time, Eunuch Gao said: "She brought the poison into the palace with a hairpin. If she hadn't buried the hairpin secretly, we wouldn't have discovered it!" As he spoke, he had already brought the hairpin to the palace.
Feng Sheng looked, hoping to find some clues.
In fact, it was not he who discovered this sneaky palace maid, but Xiao Guizi, whom General Yurong had asked him to take good care of a few days ago, who discovered her and quietly reported it to him.
It is really a coincidence that at that time, it was the female official Huang who was next to the Queen who had just told the story about the incident at the banquet. When the two things were connected, they were poisonous, so His Majesty the Emperor asked the imperial doctor to take a look at it and agreed with the board.
The same thing as above, the main ingredient is Tripterygium wilfordii. So His Majesty moved here to deal with it together.
Feng Sheng took the hairpin and looked at it carefully. He saw that it was an extremely beautifully made pure gold crested hairpin inlaid with jade. Looking at it like this, he couldn't tell that the hairpin contained poison. He gently used it.
Twist it with your fingers and white powder will fall out.
It was an extremely exquisite crested hairpin. Feng Sheng looked at the golden tassels of the hairpin and were inlaid with expensive rubies. He sneered and said, "You said this hairpin is yours?"
"Yes, this hairpin was handed down by my ancestor, and I always wear it for self-defense." The palace maid immediately explained.
"It was passed down from your ancestors? Your ancestor was a craftsman who made hairpins? He also designed a hollow to hold poison? This is obviously a newly made hairpin! You are lying!" Feng Sheng sneered.
He usually comes into contact with the craftsmen who make these jewelry, so he discovered at a glance that this hairpin was obviously made not long ago, so his voice became more confident!
When the palace maid heard this, she was startled. She clenched her fingers tightly, but she was still trembling. She was discovered. What should I do? What should I do?
"Hurry up and tell the truth!" the emperor shouted coldly!
The palace maid was trembling all over and said nothing!
"Your Majesty, if you drag such a person out and beat him dozens of times, you will definitely confess!" Feng Sheng said coldly.
The emperor's eyes became colder and harsher, and he waved his hand towards the guards and said, "Pull him out! Let's hit fifty big boards first!"
The guards immediately stepped forward and dragged the palace maid out. The palace maid remained silent and allowed the guards to drag her out. The sound of "crackling" boards was soon heard outside.
At this time, Bei Tangjin took the hairpin from Feng Sheng's hand and looked at it carefully. She glanced at the female guests at the table, and finally fixed her eyes on Wang Qingyu, who had a calm expression on his face.
, nothing unusual.
At this moment, a voice suddenly screamed: "That hairpin is so similar to Miss Wang's hairpin!"
"Ah!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was a scream of pain.
Bei Tangjin looked around and saw that the person speaking was none other than Chen Fengzhu.
It was as if she was being pinched severely by the person next to her. Yes, even if an ordinary young lady recognized it, who would dare to tell? After all, not everyone in the Wang family can afford to offend him, even if he has to pay the loss to Duke Wei.
In one discipline, the Wang family still has some capable people.
However, even though the voice behind Chen Fengzhu was quieter, everyone still heard it and all their eyes turned to Wang Qingyu.
Wang Qingyu still had a calm face. If it weren't for her slightly trembling sleeves, it would be hard to tell that she was scared!
At this time, Feng Sheng had already picked up the hairpin, turned his eyes to the hairpin on Wang Qingyu's head, and slowly compared it. Finally, with a smile on his lips, he walked up to Wang Qingyu and said with a smile: "Miss Wang, please give me the hairpin."
Take off your hairpin! These two hairpins are a pair!"
At this time, everyone also noticed that there was a hairpin on Wang Qingyu's head that was exactly the same as Feng Sheng's hand.
Wang Qingyu's face, which was trying to remain calm, finally lost its composure and was filled with panic.
Her face was like ice, slowly breaking.
She was originally betting that the person she arranged was in good shape, and even if she knew that the nail board was poisoned, she would not be able to find the person who poisoned it. But she didn't expect that this girl would be so stupid as to bury the hairpin.
!
Who can tell that there is poison inside the hairpin? The pair of hairpins she is wearing are hollow inside, firstly for self-defense, and secondly, to carry poison easily without being noticed.
This girl is so stupid! She really misjudged the person! What's the purpose of wearing a hairpin? Can't it just be worn on the head?
In fact, Wang Qingyu had really wronged the palace maid. Such an exquisitely crafted hairpin was simply too out of place to be worn on the head of a palace maid. Therefore, she was restless to bury the hairpin.
Wang Qingyu was on the verge of collapse, her fingers clenching tightly in her sleeves. Is Wang Qingyu finished? No! This is not the result she wants!
She looked at Bei Tang Jin with extremely sinister eyes, her eyes as cold as a knife.
Yes! It is this woman, it is this woman who has made her reach this point. Without her, she would never have fallen to this!
"Qingyu, how could you do such a thing? You really disappoint my father!" At this time, Duke Wei stood up immediately and said with a sad and disappointed face.
His voice shocked Wang Qingyu. She turned her eyes to her father, with a bitter smile on her lips. Her heart hurt so much, it hurt so much!
Yes, her father loves her very much. However, after today's incident, her life, Wang Qingyu, has been ruined. She is already an abandoned child of the Wang family! The reason why her father stood up and spoke at this time was to remind her that she should be a
People should bear the responsibility for their sins, so as not to bring disaster to the whole family!
Haha, yes.
Wang Qingyu clenched her sleeves tightly and closed her eyes tightly. In order to survive, she could only hold back her breath. Without the Wang family, who would save her?
Therefore, under the shocked eyes of everyone, Wang Qingyu turned his sinister gaze to Bei Tangjin and said coldly: "Yes, I did all this! So what? I just hate her.
She, Bei Tangjin, is just a vulgar person from the border. What qualifications do she have to dominate among the famous Shuyuan family? I am the real lady, why did she steal my limelight when she came? I hate her,
I hate her for taking away all my glory, so today I bribed the palace maid and killed her? What's wrong with me? I just killed my opponent!" Wang Qingyu said, and even rushed to kill her.
It was like tearing Bei Tang Jin into pieces.
At this time, the emperor immediately drank: "Catch her quickly!"
"Beitang Jin, how can you be so virtuous? How can you make King Ming look at you with admiration, and how can you make the second prince of Beiming Kingdom wholeheartedly defend you? Even the proud Princess Yongchang regards you as a confidant? How can you be so virtuous? How can you let so many outstanding people stand out?
Dazzling people surround you? You are just a puddle of mud! You are not worthy! Hahaha! Therefore, I want you to die, I want you to die! You are just a puddle of mud! A vulgar girl from the countryside! I am everyone
My lady, these lights originally belonged to me!" Wang Qingyu roared, still struggling under the interception of the guards, her eyes were red, and she was cursing like crazy!
"She's crazy, Miss Wang is crazy!" someone shouted at this time!
Bei Tangjin looked at the other party in surprise, his eyebrows slightly raised.
Was Wang Qingyu premeditated to murder her because he was jealous of her? No! No, she was not crazy at all. She was just trying to save the Wang family and pinned all the charges on her! She was trying to keep the entire Wang family intact.
ah!
At the same time, he also left a way for himself to survive.
Without the Wang family, who would save her life?
Everyone looked at Wang Qingyu in shock. At this time, Wei Guogong had already walked down from his seat, knelt in front of the emperor, prostrated on the ground, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, what Qingyu did today is really unbelievable.
Fang, please forgive me!"
Upon hearing this, Beitang Jin immediately turned his attention to Duke Wei, and saw that he was so humble that he was prostrate on the ground, with his sleeves trembling. Was his uncle showing weakness in front of the emperor? His words just now were clearly about retreating in order to advance!
The emperor's eyes were so cold that he glanced at Duke Wei.
Seeing the emperor's cold gaze, the Right Prime Minister Feng Guang wanted to step forward and speak, insisting that the Wang family's crime be turned into execution. However, he suddenly thought that this nail board was taken from the Ministry of Punishment, which might affect the Feng family, so he decided
Shut up.
Besides, if he says it, His Majesty may not listen.
In this case, it is counterproductive.
The emperor looked at Duke Wei for a long time, and finally said: "Wang Qingyu of the Wang family plotted to kill General Yurong. He will be beheaded after the three divisions will interrogate him! Duke Wei has failed to educate his daughter. He will fine him a year's salary and spend half a year in isolation!"
After hearing this, Duke Wei immediately thanked him and said, "I thank you for your grace!"
The emperor waved his hand impatiently and said: "Go down! The banquet will continue!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music sounded again, the overwhelming sound, and the sound of joy quickly covered the unhappiness just now.
Beitang Jin, Feng Xichun, Mei Ningxuan and others also sat down.
"Ajin, are you really not injured?" Princess Yongchang was still frightened when she thought of the power of the poison. She looked worriedly at Bei Tangjin who was sitting next to her.
Bei Tangjin shook his head and said: "Princess, don't worry, I'm really fine. I didn't touch the nail board at all." Bei Tangjin whispered in Princess Yongchang's ear.
Even so, Princess Yongchang's expression was extremely ugly and she said: "This Wang Qingyu is so cruel, she actually wants to kill you! How abominable!"
Bei Tangjin just smiled lightly and said: "Princess, this matter has passed. There is no need to be afraid anymore." Bei Tangjin comforted her, saying that she would never tell Princess Yongchang about her feud with the Wang family.
She was so worried about this matter. If she named all her enemies, it wouldn't frighten her!
When he thought of this, Bei Tangjin's eyes suddenly glanced at Feng Xichun's face, and met Feng Xichun who was smiling slightly. Bei Tangjin's eyes were a little complicated as he looked at the other person with a trace of confusion. He didn't seem to have any emotions today.
He broke up the trouble and even spoke for her. This is not like this person's style? Could it be that he has changed his strategy?
Feng Xichun quickly withdrew her gaze. What she was thinking about was that Wang Qingyu asked her how He De could get his attention and why?
She is very outstanding and dazzling, so why is it strange that Feng Xichuan can get his attention when she smiles slightly? She is naturally different from those coquettish ladies.
He turned his gaze to Mei Ningxuan who was standing aside, and saw tenderness in his eyes. Following his gaze, he saw Bei Tang Jin's gentle smile on the other side.
Her smile was so beautiful, but for some reason, he felt that her smile was so dazzling and made him very uncomfortable.
The relationship between Bei Tangjin and her senior brother is really good, Feng Xichun thought, slowly looking away, but when he met the emperor's shining eyes, he quickly looked away again, this man's eyes were even more eye-catching
Not happy!
When the queen saw the emperor's gaze, her expression gradually became ugly. Her beautiful face and beautiful eyebrows knitted together, she turned away and never looked at the emperor again. This way, she was angry.
Until the end of the banquet, nothing major happened, and the emperor did not issue any imperial edict, which made Beitang Jin heave a deep sigh of relief.
She was about to pedal, but someone stopped her and said to her, "Yurong, I have something to ask you."
Bei Tangjin turned around and looked into Hua Jianyue's worried eyes. He frowned and said very politely: "My lord, please speak."
