The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 67

Cui Shanggong hurriedly said: "She was recruited into the Shang Palace Bureau by the previous Shang Palace, and she has never done any errands in front of her, so this servant really doesn't know her background. Don’t dare to send it to Your Majesty and the beauty! Please Your Majesty and the beauty to be careful!”

Li Longji said: "You are an old man in the palace. I believe you don't know the inside story, but you, as the Shang Palace of the Shang Palace Bureau, command the six palace ladies, and you have a heavy responsibility. This time you don't know people well, so you should be punished. See You are old, so you will be relieved of the stick responsibility, pack your things and leave the palace!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace! Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Cui Shanggong heard that Li Longji had pardoned her sins, and kowtowed to thank her with snot and tears.

Wang Meiren said aiaiai authentically: "Your Majesty!"

Li Longji sighed, and said: "Ai Qing, please get up." When Beauty Wang stretched out her hand and wanted Li Longji to help her, the Queen and Concubine Li came hand in hand and broke into the Qinzheng Building.

"Your Majesty! Please kill Wang Meiren immediately!" The queen said loudly with her phoenix eyes slightly raised.

Wang Meiren was startled by the queen's stern scolding, and half of her body just got up and sat back again, saying: "Why does the empress ask your majesty to kill the concubines!"

The queen sneered and threw a pack of spices at her feet. When Wang Meiren saw the spices, her heart sank!After she fell into the water that day and was rescued back to the palace, she sent her confidants to search in the stone cave beside the Longchi, but they found nothing. Who would have thought that this unknown spice would fall into the queen's hands!
Li Longji said in a deep voice, "What is this?"

The queen replied: "This is the spice found in the cave where Wang Meiren fell into the water!"

Li Longji said: "Spice?"

The queen said again: "Your Majesty has practiced martial arts since childhood, and is very vigilant. How could there be two court ladies who don't know martial arts last night? Don't you think it's strange, Your Majesty!"

"I suspected it, but I found no evidence!" Li Longji said in a deep voice.

Gao Lishi frowned and said, "Could it be because of the spices!"

The queen said: "The concubine thought about it all night last night, and felt that this matter was strange. How could Wang Meiren slip into the water from the edge of the Longchi? If you want to see the fish, why don't you go to the Thousand Carp Pond? Why don't you go to Man The Longchi Lake with lotus leaves?! Since the concubine thought of this, in order to show fairness, she invited Concubine Li to search near the Longchi before dawn. Sure enough, she found this in the cave next to the place where Wang Meiren fell into the water. Pack spices!"

Li Longji said to Concubine Li: "You and the queen searched this out together?"

Although Concubine Li wanted to save Beauty Wang, she had no choice but to whisper: "Yes!"

Li Longji said: "What is the function of this spice?"

The queen said: "This morning, my concubine ordered Chang Xi to invite Qu Shanggong, who specializes in spice preparation from Shanggong Bureau, to let her explain to His Majesty!"

Qu Shanggong bowed to the front and explained: "This incense is called Ye Mihun. Its fragrance and ingredients are similar to benzoin, but it has one more ingredient than benzoin. It can make people unconscious, but when you meet a person with a strong mind, occasionally Somewhat ineffective!"

After hearing this, Li Longji looked at Wang Meiren with cold eyes, and said word by word: "What else can I say!"

Wang Meiren's heart sank to the bottom of the sea, when she begged that person for this package of incense, it was clearly not for this effect, it was just a high-level enchanting incense, how could it be enchanting?But when the matter came to an end, he hurriedly argued: "The concubine was wronged!! Even... Even if this incense has this effect, why do you say that this package of incense belongs to the concubine!"

The queen sneered and said: "Wang Meiren has always been shrewd, why is she so stupid this time? If this package of incense is not yours, how could His Majesty be asleep in your bedroom, with weak hands and feet? Besides, this is the incense burner in your palace. There is the burnt night ecstasy in it, do you want Cui Shanggong to test it in front of His Majesty?" Saying this, he threw a bronze incense burner on the ground, scattered the incense ash all over the place, and let out a crisp ding-dong sound. ring.

"No need!" Seeing this, Wang Meiren knew that the enemy was ahead of her time, and she had already calculated clearly, how could she allow herself to argue again, thinking that the person who gave her spices had deceived herself, so she turned to Li Longji said: "This bag of spices is very precious, and my concubine is not good at this method, so I can't adjust it myself. Don't your majesty want to know who gave it to my concubine!"

"Say—" Li Longji spit out a word slowly.

Beauty Wang regained her former sanity and coolness, and looked around at everyone in the palace—from Li Longji, Li Ye, Gao Lishi to the Queen, Concubine Li, and Chang Xi. The Queen and Concubine Li were all appalled by her, but Hearing her hey hey, she said coldly: "The concubine asked her for this incense, and she gave it to the concubine as a gift, she is—"

Li Longji and everyone else listened subconsciously, but the sound stopped abruptly!Wang Meiren, who hadn't finished speaking, suddenly threw herself on the ground.

Li Longji stood up abruptly and looked at the woman who fell on the ground in disbelief.Li Ye rushed up to turn over her body, breathed out, and replied helplessly: "I'm out of breath!"

Li Longji sat down slowly, held the dragon chair in his hand, and said angrily: "What a poisonous plan to kill people!"At this time, apart from the empress and concubine, King Xue and Gao Lishi, there were still a number of servants in the palace. Cui Shanggong had already been dragged down, and Chang Xi and Qu Shanggong were standing behind them, far away from Wang Meiren. , For a moment, I couldn't tell who did it, and I didn't know how Wang Meiren died!

The queen didn't expect that things would develop like this, and Beauty Wang was killed in full view!

Li Longji said to Gao Lishi: "Take Wang Meiren's body down to investigate and see why she died!"

The queen said: "Your Majesty, the real culprit behind the scenes has not been found out, and all the parties involved have been silenced. How will this matter be settled?"

Li Ye also frowned and said: "You must know that the assassination of the third brother is a major event that shakes the whole country. If the culprit can't be found, I'm afraid it will make all the ministers suspicious."

Li Longji said: "Lishi, tell the Six Palaces for me that Wang Meiren has been doing something wrong, and was later found out to be the remnant party of Princess Taiping, who waited for an opportunity to assassinate me with two court ladies, was defeated and captured, and committed suicide in fear of crime. Handmaids and officials, all those who have served her will be put to death!!"

"Follow the order!" Gao Lishi said.

Then there was the sound of begging for forgiveness and crying in the Qinzheng Building.

Li Longji was extremely depressed, so he waved to Li Ye, and the two brothers went out side by side.Seeing that the matter was over, the queen also brought Chang Xi back to Kunde Palace.

Concubine Li stood there frightened. She would never believe that Wang Meiren would find someone to assassinate Li Longji. Longji didn't doubt himself. Thinking of this, the hairs on his body stood on end. With the support of the maid Ningxiang, he went back to Kunde Hall with a faceless face to find someone to talk to.
