Qing Palace - Biography of Concubine Wan

Chapter 50 Strategy and Scheme (2)

"You... you... are you... are you sent by Concubine Tong?" Shi Sheng asked stammeringly, protecting the lotus clothes behind his back.

The man in black sneered and said: "Since you have guessed it, then you must not be allowed to stay, go to hell!" After speaking, he swung his knife and slashed at him. The blade also cut their clothes, and they screamed in fright. The strange thing is that no one outside seemed to be there.

The two had no choice but to throw all the things in the room that could be thrown or smashed at the man in black, this move really made the man in black panic, Wuxia didn't care, the two of them threw it and prayed in their hearts Someone came in to rescue them soon, and when there was almost nothing to throw in the room, the savior they were expecting finally appeared, and the four strong eunuchs who had gone away for no reason rushed into the room together.

The next situation can be predicted, the man in black saw that the situation was not right, he felt timid, he didn't care about killing people and fled through the window, the four eunuchs divided two to chase, and the other two stayed behind. Come down and watch.

The man in black seemed to be very familiar with the terrain of the Chonghua Palace, and he managed to get rid of the two eunuchs who were following him after a few efforts.

After they made such a fuss, the only few people in Chonghua Palace were attracted, Qing Ru walked in front, and asked Fang Zhi what was going on in front of those eunuchs.

"What? There are assassins in the palace?" Qing Ru couldn't believe it.

"Excuse me, Mr. Ru, if you will report this matter to the emperor immediately!" one of them asked for instructions.

Qingru looked at the moon hanging high in the night sky and said: "It's so late, the emperor must have rested, it's not good to quarrel with him at this moment, it's better to take it easy, wait until I go inside to ask, you are so lucky Watch outside, don't allow anyone to come in!" Qing Ru walked into the room where Shi Sheng and Shi Sheng were locked up with Zi Jin and Zi Pei close to her body.

As soon as he stepped in, he saw the mess in the room, and there were two people huddled together. Zijin found a good stool from the messy room and let Qingru sit down.

Looking at the two people who were still in shock, Qingru sighed slightly, and asked warmly: "Do you know why that assassin came to kill you, and who sent him?"

The two of Shi and Sheng turned their faces away, not intending to answer at all, but seeing their expressions of fear, Qingru waited for a while and then replied: "Actually, I guessed it even if I didn't say it, it's Concubine Tong, right?" Sure enough, as soon as she said this, the two of them immediately reacted with disbelief on their faces.

"How do you know it's Concubine Tong?" Shi Sheng helped He Yi to stand up, his eyes full of vigilance.

Qing Ruwan said: "At first I was not so sure, but now it seems that I am right, the person behind the scenes is indeed her!"

Hearing that the woman in front of him was trying to test him just now, Shi Sheng couldn't help feeling angry, but Qingru's next words easily extinguished his anger like heavy rain: "Concubine Tong failed to kill you this time, she must pay back!" There will be a next time, and she will never let you live to testify against her! And..."

Qingru glanced at Zijin and the others behind her and said, "I also received a message that just half an hour ago, your class leader Zhou Zheng died."

This was undoubtedly a great blow to them, He Yi was so frightened that he cried on the spot, whether it was from fear or sadness, Shi Sheng had a dull expression on his face.

Seeing that their minds had loosened, Qingru stepped up while the iron was hot and said: "To Concubine Tong, you are just her dogs. Once you lose value or endanger her, you will get rid of you without hesitation. Could it be that you are now You still have to be obsessed with your obsession, unwilling to tell the truth, the matter has been found out, and there is no way out, if you don't speak out, not only you will die, but the whole theater troupe will die, Zhou Zheng is the best example! "

Zipei immediately interjected: "My lady is doing it for your own good, don't you don't know what is good or bad, otherwise I am afraid that you will not know how you died when you die."

Zijin also said a few words at the side, and the already weak psychological defense suddenly weakened a bit, He Yi grabbed Shi Sheng's clothes and wailed: "Brother Shi Sheng, why don't we just talk about it!"

After thinking about it, Shi Sheng finally made a decision, gritted his teeth and said to Qing Ru: "If I tell the truth, can you really save the lives of us and everyone in the troupe?" People are often afraid of death, even if they can only live humblely Also willing.

Qingru nodded and said: "That's right, as long as you are willing to tell the truth and testify against Concubine Tong, I will intercede for you in front of the emperor!" They not only framed the concubine, but also killed the dragon descendants. It is impossible to survive, but Ran Qingru had to lie to deceive them, and she felt ashamed, but she couldn't, so she could only be cruel.

With Qingru's guarantee, Shi Sheng and Shi Sheng finally decided to tell the whole story: "After we were found by Mr. Tong from outside, we lived in his mansion for a while, and he also rewarded us with a lot of property. Zhou Zhengyuan is Tong My lord's confidant, on the eve of entering the palace, he replaced the original head of the class and became the new head of the group. The day before the accident, he called me in and gave me a pack of seven-star begonias, a set of maid's clothes and a wig, and asked me to follow him tomorrow. I refused at first, but he threatened my family, so I had no choice but to obey.” At this point, Shi Sheng’s eyes were filled with hatred, and his teeth were even chattering. After a long while, he continued: “ On that day, Concubine Tong arranged for someone to dispense medicine to Shu Chang's tea. She was very prepared. Not long after Shu Chang entered the Lang room, I finished a section of my play and could rest.

I had already mixed a calculated amount of seven-star begonias into the candles in the Langfang. I stepped off the stage and changed into the court lady's clothes and put on a wig. I covered my mouth and nose with a wet tissue, and when I entered the room, I saw Shu Chang lying unconscious on the ground with her maid.After I moved the maid aside, I went to invite Mrs. Xi to come up as planned. When I got there, I went in first and kicked her stomach hard with my foot, and soon blood flowed out. She just hummed a few times.I made a little noise to lure the noble lady in, but I hid behind the gauze and ran out through another door when she opened the door to come in. "He said the rest in one breath.

Qing Ru lowered her head to digest the impact, Concubine Tong is really insidious, this trick kills two birds with one stone is really good, not only removes the dragon species in Shu Heng's belly, but also makes Ri Xi an innocent scapegoat.

It's a pity that she was knocked over by her. I'm afraid Concubine Tong will be unhappy. A smug smile rose from the corner of Qingru's mouth. She got up and asked Shi Sheng and Cha Yi Haosheng to stay here. She will go to play the Emperor Ming at dawn tomorrow. When he came out, he asked the four eunuchs to wake up and stop making trouble again.

After making arrangements, she brought people back to her bedroom. There was already someone waiting inside, and it turned out to be Xiao Fuzi dressed in black. It turned out that he was the assassin just now, but now he has taken off his turban.

Qing Ru praised with a smile on her face: "It's really hard for you this time, it's very successful, they've recruited everything."

"Yes, yes!" Zipei added from the side: "Being frightened by you, and then frightened by Miss, they said everything, little Fuzi, you really did a great job this time."

Little Fuzi blushed a little from their praise, and said embarrassingly: "Miss Zipei was joking, it is a slave's job to do things for the master, and the slave is just afraid that the master's business will be spoiled if he can't handle it well."

Qingru was happy in her heart, and said: "Zipei is right, you have indeed made great contributions, and you should be rewarded, Zijin, go and bring my gold-plated snuff bottle to reward little Fuzi."

After receiving it, Xiao Fuzi said happily, "Thank you, master, for the reward!"

While talking, Mian Yi came in with a bowl of porridge: "Master, you have been tired all night, and you haven't eaten anything at night. You must be very hungry now, why don't you drink a bowl of porridge to warm your stomach first!"

"Huh? It's so late, where did you get the porridge, and it's still hot?" Zipei asked strangely, looking at the steam on the bowl. Although there are people in the imperial dining room at night, they usually don't do anything. No, unless the emperor or ladies in the palace want to eat it.

Mian Yi lowered her head and said, "When I went, I happened to see them making porridge, so I asked them for a bowl." Seeing how lightly she spoke, everyone knew that the Imperial Dining Room was full of snobbish people, How could I give it to her so easily.Qingru took the porridge and drank it, although it was bland and tasteless, but her heart was extremely warm.

Zijin waited for Qingru to finish drinking before saying: "Miss, can I ask you a question?"

Qingru put down the bowl and said with a smile: "Speak!"

"Why can you predict in advance that as long as you send someone pretending to be Concubine Tong to assassinate, you will be able to make them confess the truth?"

After being dull for several days, Qing Ru was in a better mood than today, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, I'm not a god who can pinch and count, how could I know the result in advance, I just speculate according to common sense, after all, today's call In fact, it was a psychological battle, and I just won by luck!"

"Why?" Not only Zijin didn't understand, but other people didn't understand either. Qingru raised her hand to straighten Yunbin and said, "Everyone knows the trick of planting and framing, and they can use it, but why does it always work? The reason The reason is that in many cases, the trust between people is as thin as paper, and it can be broken at the first touch. If they believe in Concubine Tong today, then it will be useless for me to use any tricks!"

That's how it turned out, everyone understood after hearing these words, Qing Ru turned his eyes to the dark night sky outside, did you see Rixi?Sister will soon be able to clear up your grievances!

Tomorrow...just wait another night!

Qing Ru is undoubtedly smart, but unfortunately she is still inexperienced, and there are too many smart people in the palace, this night's delay is enough to produce many variables, although it will not make her lose everything, but it is enough to make her get twice the result with half the effort. All the best!

I'm going to have a physical examination the day after tomorrow, so I'm afraid I can only update one chapter by then, let me tell you first
