Eight hundred and thirty seventh chapter tacit understanding
Seeing that Guo Shengtong was still hesitating, Chen Zhi said anxiously: "Queen, we can't wait any longer, Hua Feiyan will be here immediately!"
"Let...let me think again..." Guo Shengtong staggered back two steps.
"Queen!" Chen Zhi looked anxiously at Guo Shengtong.
"Queen, save this old slave!" Grandma Feng knelt in front of Guo Shengtong, pleading and looking at her helplessly. At this time, Guo Shengtong was really in a dilemma.
At this moment, a waiter outside said in a sharp voice: "The flower beauty has arrived."
This time, Hua Feiyan walked directly into Changqiu Palace without permission. Entering the main hall, she first looked at Nanny Feng who was kneeling on the ground with tears and runny nose running down her face, then she saluted Guo Shengtong and said: "
Queen!"
Guo Shengtong forced himself to calm down, raised his eyes to look at Hua Feiyan, and asked: "Hua Mei came to my Changqiu Palace late at night, but is there something wrong?"
Hua Feiyan met Guo Shengtong's eyes and said, "Feng secretly helped Wei Xun and sneaked into the Changqiu Palace in order to do evil things to the Yin nobles. Feiyan came here specifically to interrogate Feng."
Guo Shengtong slapped the table angrily and said angrily: "This is complete nonsense!"
Hua Feiyan looked at the furious Guo Shengtong and remained silent. Guo Shengtong raised his finger and pointed at Hua Feiyan and asked, "Hua Meiren, do you have any evidence for what you said?"
"Kui Xun has confessed, and Luo You is also a witness." Hua Feiyan replied truthfully.
Guo Shengtong said angrily: "The words of both of them cannot be trusted."
Hua Feiyan fell silent again, and Guo Shengtong was a little bit irrational now. She didn't want to waste her breath by talking to a woman who had lost her sanity. Seeing Hua Feiyan, she fell silent again. Guo Shengtong paced back and forth irritably and said, "Feng Feiyan
Nanny has been with me for more than ten years. What kind of person is Nanny Feng? I know in my heart that Nanny Feng would never do such a thing. Wei Xun and Luo You must have framed her and put the blame on them.
Aunt Feng, put the blame on me, Changqiu Palace!"
After a pause, she suddenly stopped, glared at Hua Feiyan, and said, "Today, I will not let you take away Nanny Feng under any circumstances!"
Hua Feiyan sighed secretly and said bluntly: "Queen, Feiyan came here this time not to discuss with the queen whether to take Feng away." But he wanted to take away Feng, no matter whether Guo Shengtong agreed or not.
be opposed to.
There are some words that don’t need to be said too bluntly, as long as you point them out, everyone will look good.
How could Guo Shengtong not hear the underlying meaning of Hua Feiyan's words? She was so angry that her body was trembling. She said in a deep voice: "I want to see Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty has given full authority over the Wei Xun case to Fei Yan." The implication is that there is no use even if you go to see His Majesty now.
Bang! Guo Shengtong slapped the table angrily again, pointed at Hua Feiyan, gritted his teeth and said: "Hua Feiyan, don't bully others too much!"
Hua Feiyan bowed forward and said, "The queen said something serious, Feiyan was just doing what your majesty told her to do."
"you……"
"Queen!" Chen Zhi frowned and slowly shook his head to Guo Shengtong. It would be unwise to fall out with Hua Feiyan now.
Your Majesty is already angry and is growing angry with Qiugong. If you continue to obstruct Hua Feiyan's handling of the case and refuse to cooperate, your Majesty will only become more prejudiced against Changqiu Palace, which is not worth the loss.
Guo Shengtong turned to look at Chen Zhi, who was also looking at her intently. When their eyes met, Chen Zhi narrowed his eyes and nodded imperceptibly to Guo Shengtong.
Now is the last chance. If you still hesitate, it will be too late.
The two people's eyes exchanged briefly, and within this moment, Guo Shengtong's forehead was already covered with a layer of sweat beads.
Her eyes were wet and red, and tears were rolling back and forth in her eyes. Her eyes fell on Nanny Feng. She slowly clenched her hands into fists, then slowly unclenched them, clenched them into fists again, and unclenched them again, repeated several times.
.
When Chen Zhi saw this, he sighed secretly. He looked at Hua Feiyan and said, "Today, Hua Meiren insists on taking away Nanny Feng?"
Hua Feiyan said expressionlessly: "It's my duty."
Chen Zhiqian smiled and waved his hand and said: "The beautiful lady has come from afar, come on, come on, come on, please take a seat."
Hua Feiyan looked at Chen Zhi, smiled lightly, and sat down on the couch beside him. Chen Zhi greeted outside: "Why are you so stunned? Hurry and serve tea!"
Then, he came closer to Hua Feiyan, rubbed his hands and said, "The Queen and Nanny Feng have a deep love between master and servant. The Queen has made some mistakes, and I hope Hua Mei can forgive her."
Hua Feiyan nodded and said slowly: "Feiyan can understand the queen's mood."
Everyone worked in the palace together and knew each other very well. Chen Zhi knew very well what kind of person Hua Feiyan was. Hua Feiyan had a cold temperament and a cold personality. He was selfless in doing things and did not recognize his relatives.
Today's Hua Feiyan was a little uncharacteristic and surprisingly easy to talk to. He moved his mind and said with deep meaning: "This time something like this happened in Changqiu Palace, the queen is really unable to explain it. When the news spread, the queen lost her face."
, even Your Majesty..." At this point, he paused and shook his head helplessly to Hua Feiyan.
At this time, the maid below had brought the tea. Chen Zhi bowed, but his eyes kept falling on Hua Feiyan. Hua Feiyan held the tea cup expressionlessly and took a sip of tea.
Chen Zhi said: "Mother Feng has entered Yeting Prison this time, and she has no idea whether she can come out again. I beg Hua Meiren to ask Mother Feng to go back and clean up first."
Hua Feiyan paused for a moment while drinking tea, and then continued to drink tea slowly without commenting. Chen Zhi said quietly: "Family scandals should not be made public. Ordinary people still do this, let alone the royal family?"
As if she didn't hear what he said, Hua Feiyan was still drinking tea leisurely. Seeing this, Chen Zhi blinked his eyes, and then his mind suddenly moved, and he seemed to understand something. He waved his hand outside and pointed at Feng
Grandma.
After receiving his instructions, two chamberlains walked into the hall with their bodies bowed and came to Mother Feng who was kneeling. They supported her arms, pulled her up from the ground, and whispered: "Feng
Mammy, this time Hua Meiren comes to pick someone up in person, and no one can save you. You go back, pack your things properly, and explain everything you have unfinished..."
When Nanny Feng heard this, she almost fainted. Her legs went weak and she was about to kneel on the ground again, but two chambermaids held her tightly. She looked at Guo Shengtong and said in a trembling voice: "Queen, please save me.
Slave, queen, please save this old slave..."
Listening to Aunt Feng's cries, Guo Shengtong's heart was as sharp as a knife, but she knew in her heart that there was nothing she could do now. Not to mention that she was incapable of saving Aunt Feng, even she could not save herself.
She turned around, not looking at the tragic scene where Nanny Feng was bursting into tears. If Hua Feiyan hadn't been present, and if she hadn't wanted to preserve the last bit of the Queen's dignity, she would have really wanted to cover her ears at this moment.
Chen Zhi suddenly turned his head and glared angrily at the two chamberlains holding Nanny Feng, his eyes almost bursting with fire.
The two chambermaids were trembling, and they did not dare to waste any more time. They almost dragged Nanny Feng out of the hall and sent her back to her own room.
Aunt Feng's cries became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared completely outside. Chen Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up the pottery pot, filled Hua Feiyan's teacup with tea himself, and said with a smile: "Today, Hua Feiyan
The beauty must have worked hard!"
"Fortunately. Feiyan dare not neglect His Majesty's entrustment." Hua Feiyan said in an indifferent tone.
Chen Zhi chuckled and said: "Kui Xun is a mad dog. Now he knows that he is about to die and will bite whoever he sees! As for Luo You, she is even more hateful. The queen took her from Yutang Palace to Changqiu Palace. Not only did she
I am ungrateful and want to frame the queen. I am an ungrateful and humble servant. It is not a pity to die."
Hua Feiyan looked at the indignant Chen Zhi, did not answer, and continued to drink tea.
Chen Zhi looked at Guo Shengtong, who had already sat down unsteadily, as if his soul had been drained from his whole body, sitting there blankly, his eyes dull.
I don’t know how long it took, but a chamberlain suddenly ran in in a panic and stammered: "Big... something bad is going to happen..."
Chen Zhi frowned and scolded dissatisfiedly: "What's the big deal! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll cut your tongue!"
"Emperor...Empress, Feng...Ms. Feng is...in her own room...hanging herself from the beam..." The chamberlain who reported the news said intermittently with a pale face.
Hearing this, Guo Shengtong stood up instinctively, but as soon as she stood up, she felt dizzy, the world was spinning, and she fell back on the couch.
Chen Zhi hurriedly stepped forward, supported the shaky Guo Shengtong, and persuaded in a low voice: "Queen, please express your condolences." He looked at the chamberlain who reported the message and asked: "What's wrong with Aunt Feng? Please speak clearly!"
"Mother Feng committed suicide in her room!" the waiter said tremblingly.
Hua Feiyan put down the tea cup in her hand, stood up and said, "Take me to see it!"
Before Hua Feiyan could walk out, Guo Shengtong had already rushed out of the hall.
Nanny Feng is a popular figure in front of the queen. Among the servants, she also enjoys privileges and has a separate room of her own. Guo Shengtong, Hua Feiyan, and Chen Zhi entered Nanny Feng's room together. At this time, she was still in the room.
It's hanging on the beam.
Seeing this scene, Guo Shengtong's vision went dark and he almost fainted on the spot. Chen Zhi held her firmly and said with sobs: "The queen should take care of her body!"
Guo Shengtong looked at the corpse hanging on the white silk, couldn't help it anymore, and burst into tears. Hua Feiyan waved his hand forward and said, "Put the person down!"
Hua Feiyan's maid stepped forward, cut off the white silk ribbon, and slowly laid the body on the ground. Hua Feiyan stepped forward, squatted down, and reached out to touch Grandma Feng's neck. The carotid artery had already been
There was no pulse. She checked Grandma Feng's breath again, but there was no warm breath either. It was obvious that the person was already dead.
Aunt Feng said she committed suicide, but in fact, there were two obvious strangulation marks on her neck. To experienced people, this was too obvious. Aunt Feng was strangled to death first, and then
He was also given the illusion of committing suicide by hanging from a beam.
Hua Feiyan is a master in this field, so how can such obvious traces be hidden from her eyes?
Chen Zhi knew it well. He pulled up Nanny Feng's collar to cover the marks of strangulation. He looked at Hua Feiyan and said with a helpless smile: "The deceased is gone! When a person dies, those who should be taken away should not be taken away.
Take away everything.”
Hua Feiyan looked at Chen Zhi, but without saying anything, she stood up, saluted Guo Shengtong, and said, "Queen, Feiyan, please leave!"
Guo Shengtong, who was kneeling next to the corpse, slowly raised his head, glared at Hua Feiyan with scarlet eyes from crying, and said word by word: "It's you! It was you who forced Nanny Feng to death..."
Before she could finish her words, Chen Zhi hurriedly interrupted: "The queen is too sad, please be considerate of the beauty!"
Hua Feiyan said nothing more, turned around and walked out.
Chen Zhi waved to the other people present and motioned for them to go out first. When only he and Guo Shengtong were left in the room, he leaned into Guo Shengtong's ear and whispered: "The queen should not have spoken to the flower beauty like that just now.
!”
Guo Shengtong raised his eyebrows and glared at Chen Zhi. Chen Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "If Hua Meiren doesn't come to help this time, the Queen... Changqiu Palace will be in disaster, and the consequences will be disastrous!"
