Chapter 60: Dog Eats Dog (Part [-])
Zhao Xueying said politely: "Come here, ask these three people individually."

The queen mother said in a deep voice: "Slow down."

When everyone looked at it, the Empress Dowager's face was very ugly.

"The witnesses and the evidence are all there, why bother to interrogate, just beat this filthy bastard to death!"

Zhao Xueying said: "Mother, the words of these palace maids are different, and there is something hidden at first glance. Only interrogation can reveal the truth."

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "Hidden secrets? There is no hidden secret in Aijia's opinion. A group of people suing one person at the same time can only show that the person being sued has a big problem. Why don't everyone sue others?!"

Zhao Xueying was stunned when she heard this, what kind of fallacy is this?
Finally, I know why the atmosphere in the palace is so unhealthy.

It's true that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.

Zhao Xueying's heart suddenly felt turbulent, but her expression was still calm.

"The queen mother, they sued Gu Li but not others. There are two possibilities. One is that Gu Li's interpersonal relationship has not been handled well, and the other is that Gu Li refuses to get along with others. It's pleasing to the eye."

Gu Li looked at Zhao Xueying with bright eyes.

It's the second reason, that's why this group of people dislike her and want to get rid of her quickly.

The fat woman was unwilling, and shouted: "Princess, you can't wrong a good person..."

"To shut up!"

Everyone looked at Zhao Xueying in shock.

I thought she was weak and could be bullied, but unexpectedly, her words were sharp and her expression was cold.

Angel saw a red mark the size of a strawberry on Zhao Xueying's fair neck.

I groaned in my heart.

they last night...

Her eyes were cold and unusual, but they were fleeting.

The fat woman was frightened by Zhao Xueying's angry shout, and hurriedly shut her mouth.

"Ai's family is still here, and you are yelling here, really disrespectful! Is this how your parents educated you?! It's lawless!!"

When Wanyanxuan was in trouble before, the queen mother spread rumors wantonly, saying that Zhao Xueying was disrespectful and not filial.

This is still the case today.

And also mentioned her parents.

Zhao Xueying was unhappy, but she suppressed her anger.

A small leak will sink a great ship.

"Mother, please tell me, I know that this palace official came from the Queen Mother's palace. People who came out of the Queen Mother's palace always followed the Queen Mother's teachings and obeyed the rules and manners. However, this palace servant is so presumptuous in front of the Queen Mother and all the nobles. The master didn't allow me to speak, but interrupted at will, and ruined the Queen Mother's reputation, it's really abominable. The Queen Mother has always been virtuous, and I am in charge of Fengyin and the harem. It is my duty, so I have to discipline you."

She is righteous and strict, neither humble nor overbearing.

One is to point out that this palace man belongs to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager should avoid suspicion.The second is that she is in charge of the harem and prevents the Queen Mother from intervening.

The words are thoughtful and reasonable, which makes people speechless.

"Lingyin, lock these three people into different rooms for interrogation, and they can't communicate with each other."

The fat woman became anxious and said, "Queen Mother, this..."

The queen mother glanced at her, and said to Zhao Xueying: "In order to prevent you from extorting a confession by torture, the Ai family will send people to go with you."

As he spoke, he was about to order the maid around him.

Zhao Xueying refused: "Don't worry, Empress, it's just a few simple questions, and I definitely won't torture you to extract a confession. Besides, this person came out of the Empress Dowager's Palace. In order to avoid suspicion and not damage the Empress Dowager's sageness, let the people in Xueju Palace interrogate her." .”

The queen mother was about to speak, but Zhao Xueying didn't give her a chance.

"Lou Lin, take him down."

"Yes!"

Zhao Xueying whispered a few words in Lingyin's ear.

period of waiting.

The queen mother has been sneering.

Saying that she is defiant, that she is not good at management, etc., were all reprimanded by Zhao Xueying one by one.

She is born weak and delicate, but she is not dough that can be manipulated at will.

soon.

Lingyin reported with the confessions of the three people.

"To the Empress Dowager and Princess Wang, just now the servants asked them when they saw Gu Li, what she was wearing at that time, and the details of her movements at that time. The answers of the three people were not only different, but also very different."

After speaking, hand it to Zhao Xueying for a review.

Zhao Xueying handed it to the Queen Mother after reading it.

The Queen Mother didn't even look at it.

"What does this mean?"

It's really pretending to be confused.

Zhao Xueying said: "This means that they are lying. They have never seen Gu Li framed, and they can't even testify."

The Queen Mother snorted.

"Well, as you said, they are lying, and that doesn't rule out the possibility of Gu Li being framed."

"That is of course, so a more in-depth investigation is needed."

The queen mother looked at her coldly, and then at the two ladies.

"Look at it, look at it, it's just a joke. Just now someone boasted that it could be solved in a short while, but now that they want to investigate, Liang Ren is really unreliable."

Everyone followed suit, some with mocking expressions, and some directly echoed.

Zhao Xueying ignored it, but said: "Come here, beat these three palace servants to death and throw them to the dogs!"

In the past few days, she has learned about the rules of the palace and the situation of each palace, and knowing that the most heinous palace servants will be sentenced to death, she learns and uses them.

The three palace men were terrified.

"The queen mother spares my life, the queen mother spares my life!!"

The queen mother said angrily: "Presumptuous!! You woman is so vicious, so reckless about human life!!"

Zhao Xueying said in a deep voice: "According to Article 72 of the Dajin Palace Regulations, palace servants or guards who are disloyal to their master and deceive their superiors and subordinates shall be punished with capital punishment. And these three people are in line with this behavior. , and be justified, it is really hateful. Come! Take these three people away!!"

When looking at the palace rules, she deliberately looked at the treatment methods of the heinous people, and she actually used them today.

The queen mother raised her hand and patted the armrest of the chair fiercely, and said angrily: "Ai family, who dares to see you?!"

But the guards didn't listen to the queen mother at all, and escorted them out.

The guards in the palace are all Wanyan Lie's people, they naturally only listen to Zhao Xueying's words.

The Queen Mother trembled with anger.

Seeing that their lives were in danger, the three of them cried in a hurry.

"Princess, spare your life! Concubine, spare your life! We really didn't see Gu Li framed."

"Yes, yes, they are all female officers, and it was the female officers who asked us to do this!"

"We were also coerced! The princess spares my life!"

But Zhao Xueying stood proudly, didn't say a word, just watched with cold eyes.

Seeing this, a palace man hurriedly said: "Princess, the coronation silk is indeed taken by the female official. I have seen with my own eyes that he often steals some things and takes them out of the palace to sell."

"you……"

Another palace official also hurriedly said: "Yes, I can also testify, and I heard with my own ears that the female officer said that Gu Li was planted for stealing the ribbon!"

In order to protect himself, the last palace servant also hurriedly said: "The female official said that the people in the Clothing Bureau all steal and sell things, only Gu Li doesn't do this. It's been a long time, and I'm afraid that Gu Li will expose it, so..."

The fat woman pointed at them: "You... Princess, they also often steal and sell things, and they are not very good people."

Zhao Xueying said coldly: "You are not good people. However, my concubine has always been clear about rewards and punishments, and she is lenient to those who tell the truth. Tell me, what else do you know?"

Then there was a dramatic scene, the four people exposed each other, and staged a dog-eat-dog scene.

Make a mess.

Zhao Xueying didn't care, until they had confessed, and then said in a low voice: "Listen to what you said, although you all made mistakes, there are differences in severity, priorities, and punishments. The female officer was beaten to death with sticks, and the three of you They each hit [-] big boards, kicked out of the palace, and will never be hired!"

The female officer was so anxious that she looked at the Queen Mother and kowtowed.

"The Queen Mother, save me! I only listened to your orders..."

I just came here to make trouble with the princess.

But was interrupted by the Queen Mother.

"Shut up! Someone! Cut off her tongue!!"
