Empress, she doesn't want to fight

Chapter 113 Say something
"You're right. Nothing was interrogated before because there was no breakthrough. Now that there is a breakthrough, I don't believe that I can't catch Concubine Gao Xian's pigtails." Concubine Jiang said: "Ding Xiang, go and ask someone to replace the former concubine. Hu Xiuyuan’s doctor who checked her pulse and the palace servants who had served Hu Xiuyuan before brought them here, and if they don’t know anything about it, then I will show them the methods of judging people in the harem.”

Ding Xiang nodded yes.

Haitang also said: "What Your Majesty said is that these people don't cry when they see the coffin. Your Majesty was too polite to them before, which made them dishonest. If your Majesty shows them some color this time, they will definitely know everything. of."

The imperial physician and the palace servants who had served Hu Xiuyuan before were quickly brought here. Concubine Jiang did not interrogate them one by one. Did Hu Xiuyuan mention or say anything after seeing Imperial Physician Feng around the month or so, and tell me what you have done? No matter whether you think it is important or not, you will report it to me right now."

None of the people below spoke, and everyone lowered their heads, trying to reduce their sense of existence.

Concubine Jiang raised her brows upside down, "What? Didn't you hear what I said? Or do you think my methods are too gentle? If that's the case, then I won't be polite."

Concubine Jiang's eyes scanned the crowd below, and landed on a court lady who was kneeling in front, "Let's start with you, come here, pull me out."

Concubine Jiang came in as soon as she finished speaking. Two eunuchs dragged the maid out, and the maid struggled and shouted: "Your concubine, please forgive me. The servants are only servants in the outer hall. They really don't know anything. Please forgive me, your concubine." Slave..."

Concubine Jiang raised her fingers to admire the Danko painted on her fingers, and ignored the court lady's begging for mercy.

Soon, the sound of the board falling on the meat and the painful cry of the palace maid sounded outside, and the people kneeling on the ground lowered their heads lowered listening to the sound outside.

After a while, the voice of the palace maid outside gradually weakened until it finally disappeared.

A little eunuch came in and reported: "Young concubine, this maid can't help beating her, she's dying."

Concubine Jiang didn't care at all and said: "It's okay, since this one can't help but fight, then just change to another one, isn't there still so many people here? Let me see who should be the next one?"

Concubine Jiang's eyes kept scanning the kneeling people, and the bodies of those caught by Concubine Jiang's eyes tensed up, shaking like chaff.

Just when Concubine Jiang's eyes were about to stay on a little maid, the little maid didn't know if she was forced by the desire to survive, suddenly Fu Zhi thought of an insignificant matter, and said in a trembling voice: "Your concubine, my servant suddenly Thinking of something, I wonder if it will be useful to the imperial concubine or not?"

"Say!" Concubine Jiang said coldly.

The little maid lowered her head and said: "That day when the servant girl was chatting with Xiaohong, a little maidservant in Lama Temple who tended flowers and plants, they talked about anecdotes about their respective hometowns. Xiaohong talked about an incident in her hometown. The daughter-in-law of a neighbor's family is pregnant and has a very good appetite. Her mother-in-law dislikes her for eating too much and often does not feed her. So it’s because I’m pregnant with twins that I can eat so much.”

The little palace lady talked for a long time without any useful information, but Concubine Jiang Gui was not in a hurry and continued to listen to the little palace lady.

"The slaves and Xiaohong didn't notice that Mistress Xiuyuan was right behind us at the time. When the servants saw Mistress Xiuyuan, they were afraid that Mistress Xiuyuan would think that the slaves were not doing well and would gossip all day long, so they reprimanded them. "

"However, what the servants didn't expect was that not only did Mrs. Xiuyuan not reprimand them, but she also spoke kindly to the servants and asked Xiaohong what happened to her daughter-in-law who was pregnant with twins?"

"Then how did the little palace maid Xiaohong answer?" Jiang Guifei asked.

The little maid thought for a while, and said: "Xiaohong said it was because the daughter-in-law there didn't eat it when she was pregnant, and she didn't make it through when she gave birth, and the two children in her belly were also born because the daughter-in-law was often hungry. After coming down, she was very thin and weak, and in the end she didn’t have any food to feed her.”

"Very good!" Concubine Jiang nodded and said, "What you said is very useful."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Jiang looked at the others again, "Does any of you remember anything?"

The imperial doctor who took Hu Xiuyuan's pulse before was reminded by the little maid, and remembered that Hu Xiuyuan had asked him about the twins. He said: "Returning to the imperial concubine, I remember that Xiuyuan once asked me about her belly. Is it possible that there are two children in the story? At that time, I asked Mistress Xiuyuan and said: I only felt the pulse of one child, and Mistress Xiuyuan nodded after that, she said she knew it and didn't say anything else."

Another court lady also immediately said: "Your Majesty, this servant knows that Sister Wei Yu, who was serving Mistress Xiuyuan before, mentioned the matter of twins to Mistress Xiuyuan. On that day, this servant heard Sister Xiaoyu say yes to Mistress Xiuyuan: If only there were two children in Empress Xiuyuan's womb, there would be princesses and princes."

The one called Wei Yu was a second-class court lady who was serving beside Hu Xiuyuan. When she heard the words, she glared at the little court lady who was speaking angrily, and said to Concubine Jiang: "Your concubine, empress, I have indeed said such a thing, but I just said it casually at the time. At that time, Empress Xiuyuan was choosing clothes for the child in her womb, there were boys and girls, so the servant asked Empress Xiuyuan whether she wanted a little prince or a little princess?"

"At that time, Empress Xiuyuan smiled and said that she wanted both the little princess and the little prince, and the servant girl answered that sentence, but it was still very early when the servant girl said this. Not long after pregnancy."

Except for the words of these few people, no useful information was given afterwards, but only relying on these few people, Concubine Jiang Gui can already deduce the reason why Hu Xiuyuan eats such a big stomach.

Hu Xiuyuan may be misleading people that the child in her belly is twins, and the person who misled Hu Xiuyuan is probably the imperial physician Feng. From the fact that Hu Xiuyuan does not trust the maids around her, it can be seen that Hu Xiuyuan is a suspicious person. She has helped Feng imperial physician several times. Once, I felt that the words of the imperial physician Feng who had been checking her pulse were more credible than the words of the imperial physician who had been checking her pulse. The imperial doctor who had been checking her pulse said that she was only pregnant with one child. Hu Xiuyuan might also wonder if the imperial doctor who had been checking her pulse had been bribed.
