Chapter 495

Use her to test the reason why Shen Yueshan's whereabouts are unknown, and use her to test whether Xiao Huayong is still hiding his strength. Both Shen Xihe and Xiao Huayong know that Emperor Youning has never let go of his suspicion of Xiao Huayong. The fact that the spirit card was lit is the best evidence.

In the afternoon, the rumors really spread to the East Palace, but they were all rumors that were not good for Shen Xihe, such as the Crown Princess disrespecting the Crown Prince, such as the Crown Princess being shameless, such as the Crown Princess being unfilial and unrighteous...

They are all people who speak elegantly, and the unrefined words are unpleasant to the ear, Xiao Huayong's face turned livid when he heard it.

Shen Xihe didn't care at all, she turned her eyes to look at Xiao Huayong: "Your Majesty is deliberately indulging such rumors, just to make you unable to bear it."

Xiao Huayong stood up suddenly, and strode out.

Pearl met, turned around and saw Shen Xihe was indifferent, Chi asked: "Crown Princess..."

"It's okay, he is the crown prince, if he really turns a deaf ear, it will be suspicious." Shen Xihe believed that Xiao Huayong had a sense of proportion.

Xiao Huayong doesn't need to expose any contacts, pick a few typical people, and doesn't use the excuse of slandering the princess and concubine as an excuse. To deal with these slaves, you don't need to set up a routine like a king. If you don't serve well, you can be ordered People dragged down and rode to death.

Everyone knew that poor service was just an unfounded charge, and the real cause of their death was that they couldn't control their mouths, so naturally it wouldn't affect Xiao Huayong's reputation, so it was his most appropriate disposal.

Shen Xihe waited until Xiao Huayong had done what he was supposed to do, then got up and headed towards Concubine Rong's Fuqu Palace.

Concubine Rong just woke up from her lunch break when she heard that the Crown Princess had arrived, and lazily ordered: "Shaoyao invites the Crown Princess to the side hall, and Haitang puts on my makeup. Don't neglect the Crown Princess."

She said don't be negligent, but she was not in a hurry to dress up, and even compared the colors of pearl hairpin and rouge repeatedly.

Shen Xihe waited for Concubine Rong in the side hall for less than half an hour. She knew that Concubine Rong would only get up. Concubine Rong had a fixed time for her lunch break. , just enough to finish makeup without haste.

After half an hour passed, Shen Xihe put down the teacup from which he had finished drinking, and Shao Yao, who was serving Shen Xihe, hurried forward to continue.

Shen Xihe looked up at her: "How long has Lady Du been in the palace?"

Shao Yao hurriedly saluted, and replied respectfully: "Reporting to the Crown Princess, the maidservant entered the palace at the age of six, and it has been 16 years since then."

"I'll be out of the palace in three years." Shen Xihe slightly nodded.

Court ladies in this dynasty can only apply to leave the palace when they are 25 years old, but not everyone is eligible to leave the palace as soon as they reach the age of 25, and there is also a case who has been pardoned and can marry early.

"This servant has already made a great wish to serve the imperial concubine in this life, and I have repaid her kindness." Shao Yao was a little apprehensive, she had a keen intuition to be able to become the right arm of Concubine Rong after more than ten years in the palace.

Shen Xihe had waited for a long time to find her for questioning, and it was not for nothing that he talked to her.

"If that's the case, why don't you do your job well?" Shen Xihe's eyes lighted up, "After 16 years in the palace, the right-hand man of the imperial concubine, the female official of the Fuqu Palace, should know the rules, and keep talking and slander the master of the palace. , what’s the crime? Don’t I need to tell you about it?”

Shao Yao's complexion turned pale, and she knelt down with a plop: "Prince Concubine knows clearly, slaves have always been saw-mouthed gourds, clumsy and clumsy, they stayed by her side to serve them because of the noble concubine's empress, how dare they spread rumors and make trouble? Someone must have wronged slaves , I also ask the Crown Princess to call the person who wronged the servant, and the servant is willing to confront him!"

Shen Xihe chuckled, "Pearl, send her to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to confront her."

"Crown princess, servants don't..."

"Who does the Crown Princess want to send to the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Concubine Rong finally came with a big stride accompanied by the maid.

Shen Xihe looked up at her with an indifferent expression: "The imperial concubine, the female official of the Fuqu Palace, spread rumors and slandered me. I sent her to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for interrogation. Is it not an exaggeration?"

Concubine Rong painted exquisite flower tinsel on her eyebrows, and lightly traced the edges with gold-ground powder, which looked extraordinarily luxurious and exquisite. There is no punishment for the crime, Shao Yao is a female official in my palace, and I am also responsible for lax discipline. But for this crime, there must always be evidence to be convincing."

"The imperial concubine needs evidence." Shen Xihe glanced at Pearl.

Zhu Zhen took a golden hairpin and raised it up with both hands, and handed it to Concubine Rong Gui: "This is peony as a gift to others, so that they can spread rumors and cause trouble."

Concubine Rong glanced at the golden hairpin, her eyes tightened, it belonged to her, and her jewelry was in charge of Shaoyao, although this object was old, she remembered that she had never given it to anyone else, how could it have fallen into Shen Xihe's hands inside?
"The little eunuch of Fuqu Palace personally said that this item was a gift from Lady Du, and asked him to claim that the Crown Princess and His Highness the Crown Prince were licentious..." Pearl said the words she had prepared without blinking her eyes.

There are witnesses and material evidences, Shaoyao knew that she did not do such a thing, kowtowed to Concubine Rong: "The imperial concubine, the maidservant neglected her duty, her property was stolen, and the maidservant was falsely accused. The maidservant never cheated on others to do such things."

"The imperial concubine, with all the physical and personal evidence, it's not wrong to send her to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, right?" Shen Xihe asked with raised eyebrows.

Concubine Rong had a layer of frost on her face. This was hers. Shen Xihe was able to get hers. This was telling her that she, Shen Xihe, had hands and eyes, and who was responsible for this matter? It doesn't matter who did it, if the debate continues, Shen Xihe must have other evidence that is not good for her.

Concubine Rong was about to speak, but another female officer beside her pulled her water sleeve.

Letting her be taken away by Shen Xihe's confidants, Concubine Rong didn't want to lose this face, she wanted to see how much ability Shen Xihe had, and she almost confronted Shen Xihe forcefully. When another confidant reminded her, Concubine Rong hesitated.

Whether it was worth taking the risk to explore Shen Xihe's bottom line made her feel a little more apprehensive.

Shen Xihe took a look at her, gave her a junior salute, and led her away.

Shaoyao was begged and begged, but Concubine Rong chased her for two steps before being stopped by Haitang: "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess was able to get your golden hairpin silently, and she dared to come to grab someone blatantly. I don't know what else is in her hand. Shaoyao is not good for guards." , should have suffered some hardships, and now the empress should think about it, whether there is something else about Fuqu Palace that fell into the hands of the crown princess."

You can't lose the big because of small things, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs also has their people, and it will not be too late for Shaoyao to enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After all, Concubine Rong was persuaded, but Shen Xihe didn't give them a chance to operate again, because as soon as Shao Yao entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she committed suicide in fear of crime.

She wants Emperor Youning, Concubine Rong and everyone in the palace to know that the person who really buried countless hidden threads in this palace is not Xiao Huayong, but Shen Xihe, and all the battles in the palace are aimed at her That is.

"It's wonderful to have a wife to protect you." Xiao Huayong greeted his wife who had won the first battle at the gate of the palace.

She wanted to share the burden for him, and her determination to protect him behind her back, took practical actions to tell him.Xiao Huayong couldn't persuade him, so he simply stopped persuading him, and accepted her kindness calmly.

"When you handed over the roster to me that day, you said that you wanted me to protect you." Shen Xihe gagged him with his words.

Of course, he was just looking for this reason so that she couldn't refuse, and he was hit in the foot by his own stone.
