Chapter 145

"After Fuqu came out, did she ever stay in the outer room? Whether she sneaked back to Changcairen's bedroom on the way, this point needs to be verified!" Yu Zhaorong said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Seeing that Yu Zhaorong eased the situation for her, the Queen hurriedly said, "Is there any witness in this Wenxin Court to prove that you have never entered the inner room again?"

With a pale face, Fu Que suddenly thought of Tweety Er, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes! The servant and Tweeter were guarding outside together that day, she can prove it!"

Fearing that Cui'er would change her words under the threat of the queen, Meiren Lu hurriedly asked, "Tui'er, what Fu Que said is the truth? You must answer truthfully, or watch out for your head!"

"Sister Fu Que said it is true!" Tweety said like a yellow leaf trembling in the autumn wind, with a voice like a mosquito.

"Hmph! Chang Cairen, what else do you have to say now!" Lu Meiren rolled up a few strands of long hair hanging by her ears, and looked at Chang Xi triumphantly.

At this time, everyone except Bi Chuan and Xiao Zhao Zi believed that Chang Xi did it, and even the queen secretly thought that Chang Xi might have done it.

Concubine Li said calmly: "Queen, this Xingqing Palace has always had strict rules and regulations. I fear that such a poisonous woman like a snake and scorpion will not be allowed to stay. What should I do? All the concubines, please show me the Queen!"

"Concubine, please show me to the queen!" The beauties Liu and Lu took the lead in kneeling, begging the queen to punish Chang Xi severely.

Huangfu Xianyi sighed, and said sadly: "You and I have been studying art for several years, Fenglu, I really don't want to see you be punished, but how could you do such a cruel thing?" Also ask the queen to handle it strictly.

The empress stood on the ground, knowing that this matter would be very difficult to deal with. If she didn't give Li Fei and the others an explanation, she might not be able to sit firmly in this post!Besides, there was Princess Yuzhen by her side, so she dared not blatantly favor Chang Xi, so she had no choice but to say: "Give the white silk, the dagger, the red crane crown and Chang Cairen the choice!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Bi Chuan walked under the Queen and cried, "You know talented people are always kind-hearted. How could you strangle your own flesh and blood with your own hands? Please don't listen to slander and give Cairen a chance." !"

"Go away!" Before the queen could speak, Lu Meiren kicked Bi Chuan aside, "There are all the witnesses and material evidence, so there is nothing to argue about! According to my concubine, Chang Cairen framed Concubine Li, this bitch The servant girl can't get away with it!"

Concubine Li looked at Chang Xi who was being supported by the palace maid, and said with a sneer, "Chang Cairen, choose the same one! Could it be that your legs are weak from fright?"

Chang Xi knew that he was caught in a huge conspiracy, but the trap was so flawlessly designed that he couldn't argue with it. The matter had come to this point, and the struggle was useless, so he could only resign himself to fate!As he spoke, he walked slowly towards the wooden tray that Aunt Youlan had brought, and silently picked up the white porcelain vase of Hedinghong.

"Cai Ren, don't drink!" Bi Chuan, whose hands were cut behind the back by the servant, cried loudly: "Cai Ren, don't drink!"

Chang Xi looked around at the crowd, only to see that Yu Zhaorong and Guo Shunyi could not bear it, Concubine Li and Beauty Lu stood aside triumphantly, Feng Lu looked sad on the surface, but couldn't hide the smile on the corners of his brows and eyes. Jieyu had an expression of watching the excitement, only Princess Yuzhen looked at her coldly, not knowing what was going on in her heart.

Chang Xi smiled miserably, took out the cork, and prepared to drink it down.

"Wait!!" The door outside Wenxin's courtyard was kicked open, and Li Ye rushed in, wearing a white brocade robe!
"It seems that His Royal Highness Xue Wang is becoming more and more presumptuous, and even dared to run into the concubine's bedroom without passing through." Concubine Li reprimanded Li Ye, who looked anxious.

Li Ye ignored her, lifted his robe and bowed down and said, "Sister-in-law, you cannot bestow Chang Xi's death."

Concubine Li said: "Chang Cairen murdered the little princess and blamed the palace. The evidence is convincing. Does King Xue still have to defend her?"

"This matter is out of my control! This king is only here to warn the concubine Li." Li Ye stood up abruptly, looked at Concubine Li and smiled.

"Oh?" Not only Concubine Li, others were also very surprised. "What do you want to warn me about?" Concubine Li stared at Li Ye's mouth, wondering what tricks he was going to play.

Li Ye flicked his skirt, and said calmly: "Although Chang Cairen committed a serious crime, but the third brother has not returned from the tour, if the emperor's wife executes Chang Xi so hastily, I am afraid that the third brother will be furious when he comes back, and you will also take off your concubine Li." Nothing to do!"

"You!" Concubine Li's chest couldn't stop heaving, obviously stunned by these words.

When everyone thought about it, they all said how could they forget His Majesty!They all felt that King Xue's words were very reasonable.

The queen hurriedly said: "King Xue's words are justified, so let Chang Cairen be escorted to the cold palace to guard, and deal with it after His Majesty comes back!"

"The empress acts like this, I'm afraid there is suspicion of favoritism!" Concubine Li stood in the middle of the road and did not allow the guards to escort Chang Xi away.

Thinking of Li Longji's big bargaining chip, the queen also stood up and fought back: "So, Concubine Li is going to bestow the death of a talented person today? Why can't Sister Li Concubine wait a few more days? Could it be that there is something wrong in her heart?"

"I have always acted straight and upright, but I was just afraid that some people would do some tricks secretly!" Concubine Li stood there still motionless.

Guo Shunyi calmly said: "Concubine Li doesn't want Your Majesty to be neglected again because of this matter! Please make way!"

Concubine Li bit her lip unwillingly, wrapped the handkerchief in her hand one after another, and finally made way for a path.

"Let's go!" The two Jinwu guards yelled and dragged the disheveled Chang Xi out of Wenxin courtyard.

Chang Xi had been to this cold palace in the corner of Xingqing Palace before, but it was Meier who lived there.Now Mei'er was punished to think about her mistakes in Qiushuangzhai, but she entered here.

The windows and doors nailed with thick wooden boards make the whole inner hall dark on all sides, it really doesn't see the light of day!Chang Xi, who was rudely thrown in the middle of the ground, could still smell the musty smell of the walls, and there was a cool slate under her body.

Chang Xi lay on his back on it, staring dryly at the invisible roof.

There was no need to cry anymore, because she felt a despair that she had never felt before, and this despair wrapped around her body and her heart like a cold snake.

In the repeated coma and waking up, the time did not know how long passed.

The complicated thoughts made her unable to see the truth of the matter clearly. She felt that this matter had something to do with Concubine Li, but how did she strangle the little princess to death?Fu Que was originally the empress's person, so she would not speak for Li Concubine. As for why she suddenly corrected herself, it was obviously because the Empress wanted to catch her as a scapegoat. I have never had any enmity, at most it was just a disagreement, and I will never sit idly by watching Concubine Li strangle my niece to death, and even speak for her!

After thinking over and over again, she couldn't find any clues. Suddenly, a bright light shot into the room, which made her eyes that had adapted to the darkness feel very stinging. Then she heard the sound of a mallet hitting a wooden barrel. This sound made her feel like she had known him before.

"It's time to eat! Hurry up!" The waiter outside the door beat the barrel with a wooden stick, making a thumping sound, and his tone was very dissatisfied.

Chang Xi covered her eyes and lay on the ground, not wanting to move, let alone get food, to be precise, she didn't want to live anymore.

"Don't eat? If you don't eat, you'll save money!" The waiter slammed the small hole shut again.
