Hou Kun

Chapter 119
The emperor looked at the empress with a cold look in his eyes.It's not that the queen can't see it, but the thing has already happened, and she quickly calmed down.

The emperor has always treated her like this since his wedding.No matter what she did before, the emperor would not appreciate it, but once something happened in the harem, the emperor would cast suspicion on himself.

Get used to it, and there is nothing to be sad about.The heart can be hurt only because there is still a heart and hope.When the wounds from being strangled are full of scars and cocoons have melted into shells, suspicion and hatred don't matter.If the emperor didn't doubt herself this time, she would feel strange instead.

Now, the most important thing is how to deal with Sugar.

No matter who the person who wanted something to happen to the imperial concubine was, he must be full of malice towards him.Strands of chill crawled out of the Queen's back, like millipedes, gathered together and became a cold gu, biting the heart.She even felt that this was not aimed at the imperial concubine, but the real purpose was to use the accident of the imperial concubine to overthrow herself as a queen.No, it's not just a feeling, it's real.

Because everyone in the palace knew that Su Ge was close to her, and if something happened to Su Ge, she couldn't clear up the suspicion.

"Concubine Ning, everything has its own rules, and the matter of the noble concubine has to be investigated carefully now, and the testimony of a court lady alone cannot be counted." The queen said, with a warning in her eyes, "You are making such a fuss now, why don't you Don't you think about the dragon fetus?"

Concubine Ning also knew that no matter what, her stomach was the most important right now.Even if she dared to ignore it at this time, it was only because of the flesh in her stomach.Facing the queen's gaze, the usual fear was still in his bones, and he was still a little apprehensive after all, so he had to obediently say yes and stood up.

The Queen breathed a sigh of relief.

Concubine Ning was relentless and made the queen a little scruples before.It is not impossible to say that it was Ning Bin who set up the game.It's just that her behavior is like a shallow vat, which can be easily seen through at a glance, and there is no such method for the time being.It would be more credible to say that he was calculated by others.Concubine Ning has always been frivolous and reckless, easy to be used by others.

Stabilizing Concubine Ning, the Queen squeezed the sweat from her palms, "Master, there is only one testimonial now, and the slave can't count on it. This matter needs to be investigated carefully. Besides, Su Ge is the one who serves the Queen's Nie. You have to go back to Ernie if you want to send him away."

The emperor has calmed down, "Naturally, I won't wrong anyone."

He had secretly ordered Tong Liu'er to investigate.With Tong Liu'er's means, it won't be long before he knows the truth.

"Long live, child, poor..." The imperial concubine choked with sobs, and couldn't help reaching out to the emperor.The twin bodies she conceived this time were already very hard work, and none of the elder brothers could keep them in the last pair. For a woman, a person who is about to become a mother, the blow is too heavy, and she loses her energy and immediately grows old. He looked seven or eight years old.

The emperor held her hand, trying to comfort her, but he was also sad, thinking about it, he had nothing to say, so he nodded.

"Murdering the emperor's heir is the crime of exterminating the family. Even if you can't get the evidence right away, is it possible to let her go?" Concubine Ning pinched the handkerchief, sat on the chair, and pointed at Suge in a sharp voice.

She always has to make a gesture.After all, more than one person saw that she hit the imperial concubine.If a scapegoat is not found, the emperor will blame her.She didn't want to be hated by the emperor.Even if it wasn't Suge, she still wouldn't let her go, as long as the emperor didn't doubt her.

The queen took a deep breath, her stomach aching with anger.

If only this Concubine Ning was half as smart as her sister Concubine Kang.If Concubine Kang was here, she would have understood that Concubine Ning should shut up right now.If it hadn't been for her stomach to fight, she would have sent it away long ago.

Now it's not her who can make the decision, the empress looked at the emperor helplessly, and said tentatively, "How about locking them up first, and then asking when you have a clue?"

"Send it to the Punishment Department."

Before the emperor could speak, the empress dowager's majestic voice sounded.The curtain was lifted, and Mrs. Mingxin followed the queen mother in a file, "Both of them are from my palace, and I will not protect my faults. When I get there, I can interrogate as I want. I have to interrogate clearly before I can give it to the emperor and the noble concubine." A confession."

The Punishment Department specializes in handling cases in the palace, and the arrangements for sending them there are considered appropriate.It's just that when people go in there, it's uncertain whether they can come out whole.

After the queen mother gave her orders, she rubbed her forehead and said wearily, "After a day of trouble, the emperor is also tired, you all go down."

Suge didn't know how powerful it was, the queen was secretly surprised, the queen mother was so cold.Even if she raises a cat or a dog by herself, she has a bit of a protective heart, but a noble girl like Suge can just serve her for a while. nothing.

The queen mother can ignore it, but she can't.

Not to mention far away, if you go in and get silenced, the matter will not be clear.After getting off the dragon boat, the Punishment Department has come to pick him up.The queen walked over slowly, ordering each of them to take care of them, and no one was allowed to open the prison to pick up people.

After nightfall, a crescent moon hangs in the sky, with a pitiful dent in the slender feet.Thick clouds filled the blue sky, one piece drifted away, and another piece covered them, wantonly teasing and torturing the shallow crocodile.Crescent Moon probably also knew that she was alone, and since she couldn't get rid of it, she simply hid in the deepest part of the sky, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and letting the cloud cover.

At the door of the Punishment Department, a palace lantern leaked light from below, illuminating a small cloud of yellow on the ground.

The gate has already been unlocked, and the eunuch on duty at the gate is hiding in the room on duty. He is exhausted and sleepy. He only thinks about Duke Zhou in his dream. With a full belly, I turned around and took the money to go outside to marry some understanding people to warm the bed, and the days were moist and I took myself as a real man.

There was a knock on the door, and the two of them didn't bother to move, and asked who it was in a vicious voice.

The door should not be answered, the knock on the door became more and more urgent, and the persistent sound was heard far away in the night.The gatekeepers are not vegetarians either. Those who are on duty in the Punishment Department usually show off their power. Now they are knocked out of their stomachs. They come here cursing. on the ground.

The gatekeeper was annoyed, so he shook his fist when he came up.They beat people on weekdays, how can anyone beat them for reason?I am used to walking sideways in the palace, but when I was beaten at the door of my own house, I fell down a lot.

The fist was thrown out, but it didn't reach the person, but the wrist was pinched, and each person was rewarded with a leather fence. "Pi Jianli, pointing to slap."

This time they suffered a loss, the two of them were not cowards, they didn't know how to retreat after being beaten, and they rushed forward.The people inside had already heard the movement, and they came out one after another to see that someone had already delivered letters to the hall.

The two guards saw that the gatekeeper didn't know what was going on, and the master outside had already stepped in, panicked, kicked the two men's arms and kicked them into the ditch under the corridor.
