The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 272 Confession
When Yinzhen returned to the mansion, he heard about the Huaying poisoning incident. Although he was shocked, he still rushed to see how Yanhua was doing.While Liu Chengzhi was feeling Yanhua's pulse, he took Wei Changan to interrogate Huaying.

Although Fujin had asked Liu Ming to dispose of Huaying, but Liu Ming felt that something was wrong, so he didn't execute it immediately.Fortunately, Yinzhen and Wei Changan came back early, so they had the opportunity to interrogate Huaying in person.

Huaying is different from Jinqiu. When Jinqiu was caught, although Jinqiu was also on the verge of death, she didn't want to die—but she had to die because of her illness; There is no end to words.

When she learned that Huaying had served Pingniang, Yinzhen couldn't help but startled.He had no impression of Huaying at all, but he did see a small maid in Pingniang's other courtyard in his memory.It's just that the glow that filled the room at that time came from Pingniang, how could he have the time to pay attention to a child who hasn't grown up yet?

Thinking back then, he was really young and vigorous, but now, he probably would never have the idea of ​​marrying Pingniang as a side Fujin, right?After reading this, Yinzhen suddenly felt dull, so he stopped asking, and only let Wei Changan ask, while he listened closely.

When Huaying talked about how she entered the mansion, Yinzhen's brows twitched: "Don't you think you confessed too easily?"

Huaying said that after Pingniang disappeared for half a year, she wanted to go to the mansion to find out, but because of her humble status, although she posted all her savings to her father and second mother, and asked them to help prove her innocence, she never gave up. have to come in.She worked hard for three years, and finally entered the mansion smoothly with the help of Fang Fujin Li.

When Yinzhen heard this, he made a sound slowly.

There was no sunlight in the dungeon, and Yinzhen, who was sitting in a corner, had half of his face covered in darkness.There was a fire in his eyes that flickered on and off, and the cold aura blended seamlessly with this dungeon.

After Huaying glanced at it, she couldn't help shivering.

Even so, she still raised her chin and said coldly: "If the master believes in Pingniang, this servant will swear in Pingniang's name that everything she said today is true. This servant has nothing else to ask, but I hope that the master can return Pingniang." Mother is fair, I hope the Lord can bury the servant near Pingniang, so that he can be a companion after death."

Yinzhen was staring blankly at first, but after hearing her words, he couldn't help but gather his attention and look at her twice. When he saw the proud and stubborn expression on her face, his mind wavered.It's been a long time since this expression, but it looks a bit like Pingniang...

"You're not her, how can you swear in her name? Qin Yu is my mother-in-law of Hongyun Hongshi, and I must not be slandered because of your few words. You poisoned Wenyao and Chanchan, and now you are doing this again." Frame Qin Yu, hum~ Pingniang has raised a powerful girl." He gave Huaying a cold look, with no trace of love in his eyes, his clear and cold expression was like the cold winter wind, which made people feel cold. to the bone.

"Why can't Gege Chan be pregnant at such a young age? Do you really think Gege can't conceive? Haha! Do you really think that Fujin and Fujin are as pure and gentle as you are? You know that Pingniang was poisoned to death, but that's how it is." Turn a blind eye and let go of those who killed her, if Pingniang knew, she would not continue to wait for Master on Huangquan Road..." Huaying sat down on her knees, looking down at the ground with ashen face.

She thought of her mother, if it wasn't for her mother, why would she let her father and second mother oppress herself.That's okay, she doesn't want to care about anything anymore, her mother just left, and she is going to die now, so she should be able to catch up with her mother on Huangquan Road.Her mother didn't enjoy the blessings before she was alive, and she couldn't see her daughter for the last time before she died. Huaying thought about it and felt that she really had no love in her life.

She came here to find out Pingniang's whereabouts, but she didn't expect that Pingniang had already gone and died of poisoning.

Serving Yanhua is expected. In fact, no matter who lives in Wanfu Pavilion, she will find a way to go in and serve her, even if the person living there may be the Wu family.But being able to hit it off with Yan Hua was an accident.She only wanted to serve her wholeheartedly, but she didn't expect that she would fall in love with this master, so much that she once gave up her plan to avenge Pingniang.

Now, very well, although she didn't succeed, she did it after all, at least she was worthy of her soul.If Pingniang hadn't rescued her back then, she would have been crushed by those stinky men at a young age.If she hadn't successfully entered the palace as a servant girl, her inhuman father would sell her to some old man to be a concubine again.

Yinzhen's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze shot towards Huaying kneeling on the ground like a sharp arrow.The gloomy dungeon had already become more silent because of Huaying's words, and now Yinzhen's uncertain mood was added, and everyone immediately dared not even vent their breath.

There were intricate fingerprints on Huaying's cheeks, and there was dried blood at the corner of her mouth, which was beaten by two maids from the Hall of Harmony last night.Her body was also very sore, and she didn't know how many times she was kicked, but she didn't resist, and let them kick and beat.If Liu Ming didn't stop her, I'm afraid she would have been beaten to death on the spot.

But their behavior only made her firm in one thing, that is, Fujin has a guilty conscience!If Fujin hadn't been guilty of being a thief, why would his face be strange when he heard her accuse her of killing Pingniang!If Fujin was not guilty, why would someone beat her like this!

She only hated herself for not being able to poison Fujin to death, and she was afraid that Yanhua would still have to suffer in the future.

After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Yinzhen suppressed the emotion in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Pingniang...she took the poison herself, no one hurt her."

Huaying suddenly raised her head and stared at him: "Hehe...Pingniang really loved the wrong person for master to defend Fujin like this! If Pingniang hadn't fallen in love with master back then, how could she have ended up in such a tragic end... "

"Huaying, you are presumptuous!" Wei Changan finally couldn't help it, and shouted at her to stop.

Huaying's mouth moved, and she gave Wei Chang'an a sad look, but she finally stopped talking.

Yinzhen stood up with a sullen face, and left the dungeon without saying a word.

There are several small notebooks saved in the study, and Yanhua sent someone to send them to the study every day, without interruption.When Yinzhen walked to the study with a dark complexion, he paused and walked in.

He frowned and raised his pen to write. A maid hurriedly stepped forward to grind ink for him, and he habitually looked up that hand.

The servant girl was startled, and hurriedly lowered her head and closed her eyes.

Yinzhen retracted his eyes, and said nothing.He raised his hand to write two words, and he put down the pen a little irritably: "Where is Liang Chen? Call Liang Chen."

When Liang Chen rushed over with a smile, he held a cup of tea: "Master, this is the new Jingting green snow tea in the mansion, it's very fresh."

Yinzhen's face softened, and he took it in his hand with a slight nod.He drank a couple of sips in silence, seeing that Liangchen was silent, he squinted at her: "Nothing to say?"

With a smile, Liang Chen took the ink ingot from the maid who was grinding the ink, and began to grind it with confidence.Hearing Yinzhen's question, she rolled her eyes, and when she raised her eyes, her brows and eyes were still crooked: "It's a pity that Fujin is fine, but it's a pity that he was consummated. Because of his consummation in the past two years, Fujin also loves to laugh. It’s a pity that something like this happened again.”

"What else?" Yinzhen glanced at her with a smile that was not a smile, and there was a hint of inscrutability hidden in his eyes. Seeing that she was still smiling and silent, he asked directly, "Who are you helping?"

Liangchen sighed helplessly, and then complained again with a smile: "You just need to care about the important affairs of the court. Isn't Fujin taking care of the affairs in the mansion? You don't have to worry so much."

"You're helping Wen Yao." Yin Zhen nodded slightly as if realizing something, and glanced at Liang Chen meaningfully.

Liangchen's smile froze on his face, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times: "I don't dare to help anyone, I only listen to my master's words and do things seriously. These days, my servant has been listening to my master's orders and taking good care of Gege Chan."

She didn't want to tell what happened in the past few days, because she rarely saw Fujin and Fujin join forces to deal with one person. In her opinion, Fujin and Fujin were really aggressive.After all, Yinzhen had already spoken in person, saying that there was no Pingniang's handkerchief in Wanfu Pavilion, nor the "poison" that Wu said would prevent them from conceiving a child.

Looking up and seeing Yinzhen still staring at her with a half-smile, Liang Chen had no choice but to smile, and recounted the events of the past few days.

Sure enough, Yinzhen's face became darker and darker, and before she finished speaking, his fingers were already tapping on the table.Although his face was expressionless, his irritability hit everyone's hearts again and again from the knocking of his fingers, and the maids in the room were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe out.

Liang Chen swallowed, simply sped up his speech, and quickly explained all the things that should be reported clearly.

Yinzhen remained silent, and when she finished speaking, the finger that was tapping on the table also stopped moving.

He glanced at several letters stacked on the table, and casually took the top one and opened it.Looking at the handwriting on the envelope, he knew it was Yanhua's letter, all of which were "Fourth Master's personal letter".She always felt that the title Zhenlang should not be called in front of others, so she called him Fourth Master on the envelope, and Xiao Zhali called him Zhenlang.

Her handwriting is getting better and better, especially the recent Xiaozha. The handwriting is beautiful and flowing, but the strokes reveal a little fortitude.

He read all the small notes accumulated in the past few days, and then he took a long breath and leaned back, relaxing his tense body.She didn't even say a word of bitterness in the small shop, did she not want to make him worry, or...

"Tell me about Huaying again, why isn't she serving in Wanfu Pavilion?"

Liang Chen was stunned for a moment, feeling a little uneasy.The relationship between Huaying and Yanhua had been good before, but this time it was a bit sudden.If it is said that the Huaying poisoning incident has nothing to do with Yanhua, no one may be able to fully believe it.But now that Huaying was once Pingniang's maidservant, it all makes sense.

She knew that Yinzhen was in a bad mood at the moment, and she didn't dare to add to the supervisor's assumptions, so she had to carefully and objectively state it again.

"Did she not go to other yards except for the Hall of Harmony and Wanfu Pavilion to trim the vegetation in the past few days?" He remembered that Huaying said that she had the help of side Fujin to enter the mansion smoothly. Even so, he could tell that Huaying was If she hates Fujin, then, she never went to Lue Garden to poison her?
Thinking of his three sons and daughters living in Lu'e Garden with Mrs. Li, he suddenly stood up: "Go to Lu'e Garden!"
