The soft beauty is very good at flirting, and the soul of the ascetic prince is floating

Chapter 168 The eldest princess hugged Concubine Shu
But the first ones to speak were not Lin and Concubine Shu, but Wang Guifei.
"Sister Ning Zhaoyi has just entered the palace not long ago, so maybe she doesn't know the situation inside the palace,"

"Having said that, the Emperor and the Empress are fair in dealing with matters and consider the merits of the heir. They have never treated Sister Jin Xiuyi badly in terms of food and clothing. Even the Empress Dowager often gives rewards for the sake of the eldest princess."

"If you say that Sister Lan is saving bird's nests on weekdays, I will believe it. But if you say that Sister Jin Xiuyi is in a tight situation compared to the concubine's position, it is really hard to convince everyone."

Concubine Shu followed closely behind, holding the brocade handkerchief with her fingers, wrapping it around her side, her thin lips slightly parted,

"Your Majesty, I don't know if Jin Xiuyi is living in poverty, and I don't know if she did this."

"But my concubine's Yaohua Palace is close to Fuyang Palace. I can hear the noise and shouting there every day. The jealousy and malice towards Ning Zhaoyi in her words are obvious to everyone in the two palaces."

"If your Majesty doesn't believe it, just summon some of the people from Yaohua Palace, Fuyang Palace, or even the sweepers from outside the two palaces, and you'll know after just asking."

"Whether Sister Jin Xiuyi did this or not is another matter. From my point of view, the most important point is that Sister Jin Xiuyi planted people in the palace."

Lan Bin pretended to be surprised, her voice was as low as a whisper.

The upbringing rules of aristocratic families include speaking slowly, in a calm tone, and leaving a breath between sentences.
What a coincidence, just as Concubine Shu finished speaking,
No one took the job, so Lan Bin's job came out. Although her voice was low, everyone could hear her clearly.

In an instant, you could hear a needle drop in the palace,
Song Jingzhang's face turned darker again.

What kind of place is that in the palace? In charge of the harem and all matters surrounding the emperor,

The Imperial Shanfang, Shangyi Bureau, Taiyuan Hospital, Shangnan Bureau, and Shangshe Bureau are all within the scope of its command.

It can be said that everything from the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the emperor and his concubines to the repairs of the palace and courtyards and the regulations of each palace are all under the control of the palace province.

Its highest-ranking eunuch, the Palace Supervisor, is an upright third-rank official.
That is to say, due to the strong defense between men and women, the only people the harem can come into contact with are the introspective eunuchs and chief eunuchs.

Strictly speaking, it is as important as the Six Ministries of the Central Government.

All dynasties have been governed by the emperor's true confidants.

Logically speaking, unless there are exceptional circumstances, the people inside are either from the emperor or from the queen in charge of the harem.
And Jin Xiuyi bypassed the Lin family, the master of the harem, and installed a steward in the palace.
Indeed, excluding other charges, this one crime alone is enough to destroy Jin Xiuyi.

Jin Xiuyi obviously remembered this incident and did not dare to claim that he was wronged again.

He only secretly glanced at Song Jingzhang's expression, shook his body, and knelt aside tremblingly.

Song Jingzhang glanced at Jin Xiuyi, who was shrinking like a quail, narrowed his sharp eyes, and said nothing.
This matter is easy to solve, and it is fundamental to find out who attacked Chonghua Palace now.

"Your Majesty, since the sisters have different opinions, why don't we send word that the steward and Hongxing who is next to Jin Xiuyi are here to confront each other?"

Lin, who had never spoken even when Gu Wanyu involved her tactfully, now opened her mouth to suggest something.

Song Jingzhang nodded, "Zhao Youzheng!"

"My servant is here." Zhao Youzheng bowed and obeyed the order.

"Preach the red apricot of Fuyang Palace and the provincial affairs in the palace."

"Hey." Zhao Youzheng responded and quickly turned around to pass on the message.
Unexpectedly, the steward was just like Chef Li, who committed suicide out of fear.
"However, my servant found a blood letter from under the floor tiles in his house."

Zhao Youzheng presented a scrawled blood letter.
Song Jingzhang took it casually, rubbed his fingers, and read out the words written on it playfully——

"This slave knows that he is incompetent and has committed serious sins. He is willing to die to protect his master's well-being and repay his great kindness in the next life."

"Ha." Song Jingzhang sneered and threw the blood book in front of Jin Xiuyi with his backhand.

Wang Guifei sneered and said: "The strange way can be bribed. It turns out that the goal is not gold and silver, but repaying a favor." "I was wrong. I only wanted to bribe, but I didn't expect that there is a better way than bribery." This method can make people work for Jin Xiuyi wholeheartedly." Concubine Shu pretended to admit her mistake.

Lan Bin then added the last blow,

"It's true that you know people but not their hearts. I see Sister Jin Xiuyi as a very kind person on weekdays, but I didn't expect that behind my back, I was using my kindness to order my slaves to do such evil things that harm my moral character."

"Where's Hongxing?" asked Lin.
"Back to the Queen, Hongxing is being escorted by the guards and waiting outside the palace." Zhao Youzheng looked at Song Jingzhang,
Song Jingzhang waved his hand and said coldly: "Pass."

"My slave, Fuyang Palace Hongxing, comes to see the Emperor. The Empress and the Queen greet all the masters."

When Hongxing came in, she didn’t defend herself or cry out for injustice. She just admitted her guilt.
Explain everything, including instructing the steward and Chef Li to deliver these pickled things to Chonghua Palace.
She did all this without telling Jin Xiuyi, just to share her master's worries.

"Share the master's worries?" Gu Wanyu twitched the corners of her mouth, chewing on these words playfully.

"Yes," Hongxing responded calmly, ignoring Jin Xiuyi's fierce gaze.
"Ning Zhaoyi comes from a humble background, but she is just a skinny horse from Yangzhou, but a person with such a background has climbed to the top of her master."

"Even because of being favored, even the second princess overshadowed the eldest princess. The master was worried all night and had trouble sleeping and eating."

"The slave girl saw that she felt really uneasy, so she used her master's name to plan all this.
"It's a pity that we couldn't get rid of Ning Zhaoyi and the dragon fetus in her belly..."

"Bastard!" Before Hongxing could finish speaking, Song Jingzhang smashed a tea cup down.
"As a slave, I don't think about how to serve my master well, but I am so bold as to murder my concubines and the emperor's heirs. I really deserve to die."

The tea cup hit Hongxing's head with perfect accuracy, and blood mixed with tea flowed down. It looked very scary.
Hong Xing seemed to feel no pain at all, and didn't even frown.
"This slave knows that his sins are serious and he is willing to die to apologize for his sins."

After Hongxing finished speaking, she suddenly stood up and bumped into a pillar on the side.

Lin: "Stop her quickly."

Realizing what Hongxing was going to do, Lin immediately shouted.

But it was still too late, only a bang was heard, Hongxing had hit the pillar.

Hongxing was hit so hard that her head was cracked and her blood stained the pillars red and splashed all over the floor. She died tragically.

The timid concubine screamed in fright, and Jin Xiuyi collapsed on the ground, staring at her body blankly.

Mrs. Lin: "Baizhi, come over and take a look."

Bai Zhi went over and took a look: "Mother, Hongxing has gone."

Lin looked at Song Jingzhang and said, "Your Majesty."

Song Jingzhang's face was calm. He only glanced casually and then looked away.

"Xiu Yi Shen is not strict with his subordinates, bribes people's hearts, and has evil intentions, allowing villains to take advantage of them and causing great disasters."

"After being demoted to the lower class, I changed my clothes and moved to Qingqiu Palace. I can't get out without an edict."

"As for the eldest princess, I will give it to you."

Song Jingzhang looked around, taking in the expressions of each concubine, and finally said:

"I'll give it to Concubine Shu."
