Chapter 243: Remember the ruggedness of the past (2)

The rosy smoke is beautiful, the red golden phoenix is ​​noble step by step, and the silver cloak is stunned and cold. I walked out calmly with a moonlight smile on my face, as if I had heard nothing before.

The few people in the outer hall looked at each other as if seeing me coming out, and Haoyue turned pale and lowered her head deeply.

"The concubine please greet the emperor." I bowed slowly.

"The queen, please." He said softly, more polite than Su Ri.

He still cares after all.

At this moment, Concubine Hui first reacted and saluted me. I saw that her movements were natural and natural, as if the person who had previously condemned had nothing to do with me, so I couldn't help but secretly applaud her not being surprised. As she got up, the other two followed to ask for peace. Although Haoyue was very calm, her slightly trembling body exposed her inner fear. As for Chen Baolin, he almost knocked down the chair with his blunt action, and he didn't even dare to look at me. The sound was like a mosquito.

"Greetings to the Queen Empress."

"Get up." I sat next to Shen Xiyao and smiled slightly at him: "Please also forgive me, the emperor." Seeing Shen Xiyao's slightly confused expression, I said again: "The lotus root powder must be sweet and delicious if you want to come, but the concubine just listened to it. Some words will lose your appetite. The emperor’s rewards and concubines should have finished eating, so at this moment they can only ask the emperor to forgive them."

Shen Xiyao smiled "Haha" and said, "It's okay." His expression changed before the voice fell, and he said solemnly: "Since the queen has heard it, do you have anything to say?"

I got up to give him a blessing, glanced at Haoyue lightly, and said calmly: "It's all nonsense, and there is nothing to explain. How the concubine Su Ri Li, and how he treats Linglong, is fair and comfortable. It is said that the concubine will blame Liu. Concubine, presumably the emperor should have the impression that Concubine Liu had tried her best to prove her innocence after her imprisonment. If her concubine designed to get rid of her, he would take the matter seriously, so why bother?"

I gave another salute slowly: "But the concubine also asked the emperor to thoroughly investigate what happened in the past." After speaking, he looked at Shen Xiyao's eyes and explained: "The poison doctor was helpless at the beginning, which is ferocious. If Xiao Guizi found out The court concubine wants to kill him temporarily, and ask a little **** who once swept the palace road and entered the Kunning palace, where did the poison come from? How can it be within reach?"

I turned my head to look at Haoyue, who was standing on the side, and said calmly: "Yue Guiren also said that since she became a beauty, she has had little contact with concubines. The concubine remembers that the concubine and the emperor did not know each other when Yuegui was favored. How would she know what happened after that?"

"As for King Yu?" I pinned a pinch behind my ear, but suddenly I didn't know how to explain it. After all, between Xi He and I, I'm afraid no one knows better than Shen Xiyao. Then confessing to the crime and denying it will make Shen Xiyao doubt what I said before. What should i do?

"Okay, the queen needn't say anything." Shen Xiyao waved his hand: "I know it in my heart."

"But the emperor?" Haoyue was still struggling.

Concubine Hui's expression moved and said, "After all, it involves Tsuna Chang, the emperor?"

"Enough!" Shen Xiyao's face was extremely unhappy. This was the secret he didn't want to be touched at the bottom of his heart. I'm afraid he hopes that no one in the world will know it, which will damage his natural pride. He said that after he took out a tea cup, the finest Ru kiln celadon cup fell into sharp fragments and scattered, bringing the emperor's wrath to everyone's heart, which was frightening.

Everyone knelt down, I closed my eyes, and my desolate and sad emotion spread to my body. When I was happy, I was sad and hated, and my heart was calm and peaceful. Looking back at this time, I have long been nothing but everything.

"I will thoroughly investigate what happened in the past to see if there is someone in charge." His gaze swept across the crowds. Concubine Hui's hard work to take care of the prince, he still listened to less gossip. I know exactly how Concubine Liu is, so I don't need to mention it again. "Shen Xiyao showed tiredness on her face, and suddenly she wanted so many old things to come out, not only evoked many memories, but also a lot of unhappiness.

"Concubine Hui has worked very hard to lead the prince on weekdays, so I shouldn't listen to the gossip. Chen Baolin watched it privately, spread rumors based on assumptions, and was reduced to a picker. As for the moon nobleman?" Shen Xiyao narrowed his eyes and said, "Stopping Ye Ting thought carefully. "

He said and waved his hand: "Get out of here!"

"The emperor, how can you be so unfair?" Haoyue cried: "The concubine did not make false statements, what they said is true!"

Shen Xiyao showed impatience on his face. What he cared about most was not the dispute between Concubine Liu and me, and he didn't mind the little thoughts he made for the women who favored the women. What he cared about was the past with Xihe, so everyone Don't mention it, don't mention it, even if you know it, you should die.

"The emperor, the concubine has something to say!" Concubine Hui constricted on her knees, her expression dignified and sad, her brows furrowed, her lips pursed, she made a lot of determination, and she had a stance to ignore it.

Yes, how could she end up so easily? There must be something left. The corners of my lips raised slightly in a mocking arc, and I thought of the secret report that Shen Xiyao had previously questioned me, which had actually caused suspicion. So, as the daughter of the Feng family, will Concubine Hui master more and have to attack at once?

Since she had already torn her face with me, she was not afraid to break it a bit more.

Shen Xiyao had already turned around, and when she heard her words, she turned her head and said coldly: "What else does Concubine Hui say?"

Concubine Hui looked pale, and saw that she solemnly bowed three heads to Shen Xiyao before she said in a deep voice: "After the next words of the concubine, the emperor wants to demote or kill the concubine. But the concubine can't tolerate the emperor. There are people on the pillow with bad intentions, and someone trusted by the emperor tries to replace them!"

She glanced at me and looked at Shen Xiyao affectionately: "The emperor asked the concubines why they didn't say those things earlier. The concubines suffered from the lack of evidence and put them into doubt. But today, the emperor was so blinded by her to protect his shortcomings, and the concubines are really afraid and bear it. Can't help it."

"Concubine Hui means that you have evidence?" Shen Xiyao's tone was like a calm sea, but who knows the hidden waves below.

Concubine Hui looked at me again and said fearlessly: "Yes, the concubine has evidence."

"What do you know?" Shen Xiyao's tone was quite dangerous.

Concubine Hui took a deep breath and hesitated for a moment, seemingly scrupulous. But in the next moment she was determined to put aside all her composure: "The concubine knew that Ling had been imprisoned in the cold palace, and relied on Concubine Yi to go to the Garment Bureau. She knew that the emperor had no feelings for her, so she borrowed Li Fei's birthday banquet. She reappeared." She clasped her hands on her skirt, and her tone was a little excited: "One day, the concubine grandmother went to Shangxiang to save a dying girl. The grandmother compassionately took her back to the house, knowing that she was a court lady in the clothing bureau. Release the palace. But when she was less than twenty-five years old, her grandmother was suspicious and tried several times to finally tell her the truth." Concubine Hui lifted her head to look at Shen Xiyao: "She is here today, the emperor would you like to listen?"

I looked at Shen Xiyao, he frowned and should not refuse, and said after a moment: "Xuan."

I was taken aback for a moment. I didn't expect him to meet, or why he wanted to meet. And I don't know what Huifei wanted to say when he found this person.

The door of the temple opened, a little sunlight penetrated, and a woman in commoner walked slowly in the tiny flying dust. She knelt down tremblingly, stammering greetings.

"Zhen'er, you used to be a court lady in the coat bureau, do you remember Xie Niang?" Hui Fei said mildly.

"The slave maid remembers that Niang Xie was brought by the concubine Yi. Su Ri was not very close to us with the support of the maid. On the contrary, she was familiar with Xiao Rong, a fellow slave maid."

"Where is Xiao Rong now?" Concubine Hui asked.

"Xiao Rong?" Zhen'er was choked up in her voice: "Xiao Rong is gone."

"Why is she gone?"

"On the day of Empress Li's birthday, Niang Xie wanted to see it. Xiao Rong persuaded her not to listen to her for a long time. Xiao Rong couldn't find her. She didn't want Xie Niang deliberately to make a movement and be taken away by the emperor. She suffered forty hits and died." Zhen'er said and cried: "During Xiao Rong's execution, the slave and maid asked her father-in-law to be lighter. She didn't want her father-in-law to say that she should not be offended by her, and they can't help it."

Zhen'er cried and cried, and said intermittently: "When Xiao Rong was dead, the slave and maid were by her side. She said it was a pity that she couldn't wait to go out to see Xie Niang stay with her beloved. She also said that Xie Niang told her. The man was handsome, powerful and powerful, and said that he had come to the Garment Bureau so that he could leave the palace in the 25th."

My heart beat, looking at Shen Xiyao's face, it really darkened, and there was also a thundering force between my eyebrows. The biggest knot between him and me is Xihe. But I can't explain it. When I explain it, I confirm the past that cannot be known. As for Concubine Hui, I'm afraid I can't explain it in front of Shen Xiyao, and I can't take this secret to truth.

"Then why can you go out of the palace?" Concubine Hui frowned slightly: "My palace has checked, you are less than twenty-five."

"Shortly after Xiao Rong's death, Niang Xie found the servant girl and gave the servant girl a paper for going out of the palace, saying that she hoped that everything that Xiao Rong and the servant girl said would not be leaked out." Zhen'er's tone was scared: "At that time, she was dressed in luxurious clothes. The tone was threatening, and the maidservant did not dare to respond and wanted to go home as soon as possible. However, shortly after the maidservant returned home, his family was assassinated, and the maidservant escaped several times and was saved by Mrs. Feng. This saved her life."

Chen Baolin, who had been silent for a long time, interrupted suddenly: "I am afraid that the person is afraid that you will reveal her secrets and will kill them all."

"Zhen'er, look up, can Xie Niang be in this hall?" Hui Fei said solemnly.

Zhen'er raised her head tremblingly, glanced at me quickly, and replied hesitantly, "Yes?? It's this lady in red."

I looked into her eyes and asked with a faint smile: "Jing'er, can you guarantee that there is no lie?"

Zhen'er glanced at Concubine Hui in fear, shrank back, and nodded.

Shen Xiyao glanced at everyone, and said lightly: "Concubine Hui, is this what you want to say?" His tone revealed impatience.

Concubine Hui paused, shook her head and said: "The concubine has a lot to say."

"Then tell me." Shen Xiyao sat on the dragon chair and took a sip of tea slowly.

"In order to return to the throne of the queen, Ling found her confidant Huiju and asked her to pass the message to her elder brother when she borrowed the palace to visit relatives. First, pretending to be the Uighur army and robbed the army of food and grass and forced the emperor to lay down his supreme status and borrow food from the people. The third brother is in her early days, so the emperor must send her back to Kunning Palace." She squatted her head: "The concubines have evidence."

"Oh?" Shen Xiyao looked at Concubine Hui, without a trace of emotion in her eyes: "Then pass it on."

The door opened again, and a slender woman walked in, Su Xin who served me in the Hall of Yangxin.

"Suzin Suxin, please peace to the emperor's empress." She wore the color of the lake, sparsely embroidered the vigorous green bamboo, and the double-ringed bun was jasper pearl flowers. The whole person was fresh and tenacious. In such a dull palace People's eyes lit up, obviously they had been dressed up deliberately.

"Su Xin, tell you to the palace, and then tell the emperor." Hui Fei said softly: "Don't be afraid, there is the palace."
