Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 542: The Deceitful Dynasty (2)
She suddenly understood how Bai Lichu liked to set up a stage to watch a play. When she was too bored, watching a play was simply the best way to pass the leisure time in her life.

Minister of the Ministry of Punishment saw that Duke Xiangguo and others got up with a sigh of relief, a sneer flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at Ran Deng: "Ran Deng, why did you kidnap the innocent girl?"

Ran Deng continued to say with no expression on his face: "Make blood bird's nest and beauty cream for beauty and health."

"Do you recognize these instruments of torture!" The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment ordered someone to bring up a series of strangely shaped pots, knives and iron hooks, which made everyone in the hall shudder.

Ran Deng nodded: "Yes, they are all used to make and refine human blood, human fat, and human ointment."

Seeing this, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment said to Ran Deng: "Ran Deng, you go and identify it."

Ran Deng was also straightforward, knelt there and identified the instruments of torture one by one, this one was for bloodletting, and that one was for fat extraction.

The courtiers were all terrified, and they began to discuss in whispers.

The two adults who had lost their daughter couldn't bear to listen anymore, and their legs and feet were weak, and they were helped by the palace servants to rest.

In this link, no one said to raise objections, because the evidence of the crime was solid, and there was nothing to refute.

Qiu Yebai is a ready-made witness, and he also came out to make a confession.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice is not very sure about the faction of Qiu Yebai. He said that she is from the Queen Mother's faction, and she is the person who solved the case. He said that she is not from the Queen Mother. She couldn't get it last time. Evidence, directly create false evidence to frame His Highness.

Of course, if you count it carefully, she can't be framed, after all, the fact is that His Highness the Eighth Prince is indeed forging weapons privately.

It just shows that this person is extremely unpredictable.

So he didn't directly pull her to ask more questions, but immediately turned the topic back to Ran Deng after asking for proof: "Then why do you make these things?"

Ran Deng slowly raised his eyes, glanced at Duke Xiang with a gloomy expression and a warning in his eyes, and finally stopped on the cold and majestic face of the Empress Dowager. : "Because the Empress Dowager Lafayette asked the poor nun to make it!"

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and everyone looked at the Queen Mother in disbelief.

"Bang!" The Empress Dowager slapped the armrest of the stool and sternly said, "Presumptuous, above the great hall, how can you allow you, a monster, to spout nonsense and blood!"

Duke Xianguo seemed to be so angry that he couldn't help but rushed up and slapped Ran Deng, knocking her down to the ground.

"The demon is shameless, how dare you blaspheme Lafayette!"

No wonder she didn't seem to be seriously injured, she must have taken refuge in those people in Bailichu!
Duke Xiang's actions were too fast, and the ministers next to him had no time to stop them, but those who could stop them had no intention of stopping them, such as Qiu Ye Bai Ye who just watched coldly.

The burning lamp that fell on the ground covered her face, as if she was too painful to get up. After a long time, she covered her face and raised her eyes, looking at him bitterly, seeing the angry look in his eyes pointing out that she was a 'traitor'.

She laughed in a low voice, her laughter was old and sad: "Still the same, big brother, you will always only favor your younger sister who is born in the first place, why have you ever regarded me as a member of the Du family, I am just a member of your Du family Dogs, you can use them if you want to use them, and kill them like dogs if you don’t want to use them.”

He wanted to protect the queen mother, and even injured her with his own hands, so she wanted the queen mother to follow her to death!

The courtiers gasped again in disbelief when they heard this sentence.

Ran Deng turned out to be Du Guogong's younger sister, that is to say, he is also the Queen Mother's younger sister? !
But if this is the case, what Ran Deng said will be more credible. After all, the queen mother is going to do this kind of thing, after all, she still needs her own people to rest assured.

"Ran Deng, you are talking nonsense, what do you want to do?" Duke Xiang was furious, clenched his fists, and forcibly endured the urge to strangle Ran Deng in front of him.

"Am I talking nonsense?"

Seeing that he was angry, Ran Deng showed a happy expression on his face: "All these are facts. The queen mother wants to be young and rejuvenate, so I will do what she wants. If it is not because of the queen mother and the Du family Power, do you think that a mere princess of the Mantra Palace would dare to do such things as robbing the official's daughter?"

"Come here, drag this slut who blasphemed the Queen Mother, Lafayette, and swears, and beat him to death!"

Listening to the low-pitched discussions of the surrounding courtiers and their weird and contemptuous eyes, Duke Xiang finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted sharply.

only……

"Mr. Xiangguo, have you forgotten that this is still the court hall of our Baili clan, or are you eager to replace it?" A soft and cold voice came from the hall.

The voice seemed to be coming from the dark abyss, with a bone-piercing chill, it instantly made Duke Xiang froze, and he had to immediately turn around and kneel down: "Your Highness, forgive me, I am just talking nonsense for a while, Slandering the Empress Dowager Lafayette, she lost her composure in a hurry."

Seeing this, the queen mother also said coldly: "That's right, the empire governs the country with filial piety, Your Highness wants to let these shameless people insult your grandmother like this without punishment, and set an example of unfilial piety for the world!"

Bailichu caressed his armor, and said casually: "Why did I ever want to be an example for the world, I am a woman, aren't I?"

Qiu Yebai almost laughed out loud when she heard Bai Lichu say this so naturally and simply, this Highness really has no morals!
Don't you hate being a 'woman' at this time?

Bai Lichu's self-righteous and natural arrogance immediately choked the Queen Mother, Lafayette.

Baili Chu lazily said: "Continue with the trial."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Lord Chang and others were all excited when they saw the empress dowager and the Du family deflated.

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishments immediately cupped his hands and said, "Respect."

He glanced at the empress dowager with a livid face again, and there was more contempt in his eyes, and he said pointedly: "When people are approaching their twilight years, who doesn't love youth, it's natural for women to want to keep their youth, but it's against human ethics The law of heaven, the inhumanity, is really cruel."

Then, he said to Ran Deng: "You tell me everything you did, how you did it, how the things you made were sent to the palace, and who connected them all in detail."

Ran Deng was naturally eager to pull the queen mother down from the altar, glanced at the queen mother bitterly, nodded immediately and said: "Yes, Ran Deng knows everything, and can say everything!"

Afterwards, she told the whole story of the future one by one, which made all the ministers feel chills and sigh endlessly.

But the Empress Dowager, the Duke of Xiangguo and the people from the Du family were fidgeting when they heard it. The Empress Dowager sat at the head, clasping the handrails tightly in order to suppress her urge to tear the lamp's mouth to shreds.
