Chapter 323: Killing someone with a borrowed knife, pretending to be kind
Concubine Xian took Yao Wanyi's hand and told her to calm down: "The Queen just left here, and I begged her again and again before she was willing to tell me what was going on.
The reason is that when Gan'er was hunting in the mountains last winter, he gave me a little hare, but I didn't raise the rabbit for long before it died.
This was originally a very small thing, and I didn't even take it to heart.
Later, the prince also got a little rabbit from somewhere, which was very similar to mine. I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that this thing should be quite common, and it was not surprising that there were so many in the palace.
Who would have thought that later the queen would be furious because the prince lost his ambition in playing with toys, and Eunuch Liang somehow found out that I had raised such a rabbit, so he suspected that the prince had given it to me.
The queen suspected that I had bad intentions. You also know that once this suspicion arises, it is not easy to get rid of it.
Moreover, Eunuch Liang found out two more things in the palace, which vaguely seemed to point to me. The queen believed that I was harboring evil intentions, so she no longer trusted me, but wanted to find a way to get rid of me.
"
"This is simply nonsense! Everyone knows what kind of person you are, concubine. How can the queen not believe you?" Yao Wanyi truly felt aggrieved for her mother-in-law.
It is true that the queen is her biological aunt, and she loves her very much.
But Xian Fei, a mother-in-law, is even more rare. She takes good care of herself and thinks of herself in everything.
He even cut off the meat to make soup for himself. How could such an elder be a bad person?
"Fortunately, after the rabbit died, I didn't throw it out, but buried it in the palace. Later, I dug it out in front of the queen. Although the bones and flesh were rotten, the fur was still there, and you could see
What is it?" Concubine Xian sighed and said, "I don't know if this can dispel some of the doubts in the Queen's heart. As for the other two things I didn't do, how can I prove it for myself? Besides, Eunuch Liang
Although it is said to be related to me, there is no complete evidence.
Therefore, I invited myself to the ancestral temple and never returned to the palace. I also asked my two brothers to resign due to illness and never enter the official career. I hope I can be lucky enough to save my life!"
"Mother, you are confused! How can you, an innocent person, think about swallowing your anger when you are falsely accused? No matter who is behind this, we must find a way to find that person out! Make him uneasy and kind!"
Yao Wanyi was so anxious that she jumped up and down.
Princess Maoling also said: "If you can take a step back to expand the sea and the sky, you won't have to retreat. But I'm afraid if you take a step back now, someone will take advantage of it."
What’s more, it’s not good for the Queen if things continue like this. We can’t just protect ourselves and ignore the truth.”
"What you said doesn't make sense? But now Mr. Liang has determined that I have ulterior motives. Don't you know who he is? I think I can't fight him." Concubine Xian smiled bitterly.
"Liang Jing? Why should he be suspicious of you? Has he been deceived, or what?" Lord Maoling frowned, "Logically speaking, he shouldn't."
Liang Jing was not only important in the queen's heart, but also in the hearts of the Yao family.
Yao Ziyun was able to take the position of queen because of Liang Jing's great efforts.
Therefore, they did not suspect that Liang Jing would be unfaithful to the queen, nor did they think that he would be so stupid that he would act indiscriminately.
But something like this just happened.
"Your Majesty, in front of the Crown Princess and the Princess, can't you say everything?! You have to suffer the injustice." At this time, the maid Shu Cong beside the Concubine Xian began to cry, "Even if
You are willing to be wronged and let the two uncles become commoners, but you have to think about the sixth prince and the sixth prince's concubine!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?! It's all nonsense! Don't you think there are enough rumors? Get out!" Concubine Xian scolded Shu Cong with a cold face.
"Empress, I beg you! Think about yourself! Your body is about to collapse if the wind blows. How can you withstand running to the ancestral temple to eat fast and chant Buddha?" Shu Cong said and knelt down.
"Good boy, what are you telling me? Your mother-in-law is used to being a good person and refuses to say a bad word about others." Princess Maoling stretched out her hand to help Shucong and said in a kind tone.
Shu Cong wiped her tears and said: "Princess Princess, please listen to what I said. Manager Liang didn't like my wife, so he made slanderous remarks in front of the queen and wanted to get rid of her. This is not that my wife really did anything wrong.
It's just that he has evil intentions."
"Girl, what are you talking about?! Have you forgotten what I told you?!" Concubine Xian scolded sternly, "Seeing may not be true. I would rather believe that Manager Liang really found something, but he just didn't see it clearly at the moment.
That’s why he became suspicious of me.”
"Empress, just take care of yourself! Stop thinking about others." Shucong cried again, "We have seen Manager Liang and the maid in Fu Fei's Palace flirting with each other several times. We have long heard that the two of them were together.
It’s time to eat.”
"What? Is there such a thing?" Princess Maoling frowned upon hearing this, "I didn't expect Liang Jing to have such thoughts.
Concubine Fu is the one who is always good at pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, and neither the fifth prince nor his wife are fuel-efficient.
The Queen originally wanted to get rid of them the most, but now she has turned to you."
"What the princess said is not bad at all. Our queen only wants to assist the queen. If anyone is the biggest threat to the prince, it is the eldest grandson of the emperor! Where can we, the sixth prince, get his turn?
But now that Liang Jing has provoked her, the empress has regarded our empress as a thorn in her side. How is this different from good people being framed by bad people in storytelling and opera?" Shucong was very articulate and spoke out without thinking, "Princess Princess
Your Majesty, think for nothing, take a step back and say, even if our Majesty has this intention, can you allow it?"
"You mean Liang Jing was bribed to have sex with the palace maid from Furong Palace?" Yao Wanyi vaguely noticed something, "What's the name of that palace maid?"
"The sixth prince and his concubine may not recognize it, but the palace maid is the daughter of the guilty minister, named Xue Hengzhao." Shu Cong replied.
After hearing this, Yao Wanyi almost jumped up and raised her voice: "Who do I think it is? It's her indeed! If it were an ordinary palace maid, it would be impossible to confuse Liang Jing. But if it were this witch, it would be impossible.
, I have no doubt at all.”
"What? You know this palace lady so well?" Princess Maoling was quite surprised.
Yao Wanyi gritted her teeth at this time, and her ugly face became even more deformed: "I will never forget her until the day I die! If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be blind in this eye! She is just a
The witch is a scourge!
The tragic deaths of several stewards of the Fourth Division and the Eighth Bureau, Ma Feiyan's miscarriage, and me being scratched by a macaque were all thanks to her!"
