Chapter 523 Suicide in fear of sin
Fuqu Palace.

Concubine Shu's eyebrows were gloomy: "I thought I could take this opportunity to bring down the queen, but I didn't expect the national teacher to jump out."

Grand Tutor Wei said deeply: "If you owe the emperor's kindness, you must die to apologize. Do you believe me?"

Concubine Shu didn't believe a word: "Father also thinks there is something strange about the death of the national teacher?"

"Slaying the mill and killing the donkey, the Xiao family's move is really vicious."

Concubine Shu frowned: "It's a pity that I didn't find any clues against the Xiao family. I'm afraid the Nine Masters will not be able to explain this result."

Rong Jiu pleaded for her at the palace banquet, but he wanted to use her hand to deal with Empress Xiao. She obviously used her, but in turn owed her a favor.

Wei Taifu's old face was deep, and he said after a long time: "How can you be a simple person to be canonized by Your Majesty as the Princess of Zhenguo? Now that the Wei family owes her a favor, if he asks for anything in the future, I'm afraid it will be all the wealth and wealth of the Wei family." gone."

"Ling'er is pampered, and my father still needs to discipline him more. If I hadn't warned him that day, I'm afraid he would have ended up like Xiao Yu. Yesterday, the imperial guards escorted the Queen Mother to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings. After returning, someone said that the Queen Mother was killed by nine The princess forced her to climb hundreds of stone steps, step by step."

Wei Taifu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a strange light flashed: "She is so sharp, she must have someone to rely on behind her."

Concubine Shu was startled: "What does father mean, Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty and the Xiao family are in conflict. As the relatives of the emperor, the Xiao family is arbitrarily interfering in politics. How can His Majesty endure it? It's just because of the checks and balances of the government that they can't do anything. Now, Princess Zhenguo has broken this check and balance. Your Majesty is here The Xiao family is going to be attacked."

"The prince,"

"Your Majesty," outside the hall, someone from the palace suddenly reported, "Princess Zhen Guo is here."

Concubine Shu and Grand Tutor Wei looked at each other, and said: "Father thinks, what is the purpose of her coming here this time, isn't it to Xingshi to question her?"

Wei Taifu's eyes flashed brightly: "Not necessarily, I will avoid it for my father."

Concubine Shu watched him turn into the screen, and ordered the palace staff: "Please come in, princess."

The palace people led Rong Jiu into the palace, and after the palace people served hot tea and left, Concubine Shu asked with a smile: "The princess came to my Fuqu palace, but did she commit suicide because of the national teacher's fear of crime?"

Rong Jiu smiled lightly: "If the national teacher really committed suicide in fear of crime, he should admit it on the day of the palace banquet."

Concubine Shu's tone sounded a bit helpless: "Now that there are all witnesses and material evidence, I'm afraid this is the only way to close the case."

While drinking tea, Rong Jiu seemed to talk casually: "Last night, when I came back from Dali Temple, when I passed by the National Teacher's Mansion, I saw a Taoist figure flashing in. This morning, I heard that the National Teacher apologized for his death."

"Could it be that the national teacher didn't commit suicide?"

Looking at Concubine Shu's feigned surprise, Rong Jiu glanced at the other teacup on the case, and the smile on his lips gradually deepened: "There is a difference between suicide and homicide. Can it be said that the confession of the national teacher is the truth?"

"What the princess said is true. The thief is cunning. If the princess hadn't come to tell me, I'm afraid I would have been deceived by him."

"Your concubine, you are welcome. The Wei family has made many achievements. Even if I don't tell the princess, the concubine has the support of the Wei family. She can still find out the truth of the case. It's just a matter of time." Rong Jiu stood up with a smile, "I still have to give it to the princess." Father is doing acupuncture, so I will take my leave first."

"Princess walk slowly."

Taifu Wei slowly turned out from behind the screen, Concubine Shu asked, "Did you hear everything?"

"Of course I heard it," Wei Taifu said slowly, "for my father, I heard the news last night that Xiao Yu was suffering from a high fever, Madam Xiao invited the Ninth Princess to the palace for medical treatment, but she refused, but in the middle of the night, Empress Xiao went there again Chu Palace, there is a hand manipulating the chess game in the dark, the Ninth Princess is the one who plays chess, the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind, since the Ninth Princess has given her an opportunity, the empress must seize it."
