Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 70
"Sister Yue's words are wrong. Could it be that the life of the majestic Dalai Princess must be taken so hastily?" Yue Jingan moved lightly with lotus steps, and walked to the dragon bed and said softly.

Concubine Yue's long and narrow Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Yue Jing'an with her usual expression, she couldn't help showing a bit of contempt.Before she cleaned up Yue Jingan, Yue Jingan couldn't wait to jump out to stand up for Xia Zijin, and wait, she finished cleaning up Xia Zijin, and then slowly settled with Yue Jingan.

"Sister Concubine Lian, it is possible that she has not heard the words of the ancient tree god. Now is the imminent moment. If the demon star is not dealt with, it is possible to wait for the demon star to grow stronger and then kill the emperor!" Concubine Yue deliberately bit the last few words. , Sure enough, the murderous intent in Ming Shengdi's eyes became stronger, and he even looked suspiciously at Concubine Lian.

Yue Jing'an looked at the suspicious eyes of the Holy Emperor of Shangming, but she did not show any shock, she just sighed softly and said: "Sister Yue said so, and she buried her sincerity. Your majesty, minister As your concubine, I naturally have to consider everything for the emperor. After all, those two maids are your own flesh and blood. There is only one demon star. There must be one princess who is innocent. Losing a princess is already a painful thing. Why bother paying for another one."

Witnessing the conversation between the two, the queen raised her eyes to Yue Jing'an, who was still dressed in an elegant attire, her phoenix eyes were slightly closed, but she didn't speak.

Ming Shengdi had already been aroused by the noble concubine Yue, so listening to Yue Jing'an's words at this time would not be of much use.

I only heard Yue Jing pause for a while and then said: "If the emperor is worried, wouldn't it be more appropriate to hand over the judgment to the heavens, since the heavens foretell the appearance of the demon star, they must also be able to tell who is the real one. Demon star."

Ming Shengdi only frowned and said, "How does God tell the difference?"

"Since the divine prophecy was excavated from Minhui Village, it means that God intends to give instructions to the emperor, so that the village is the most important thing. If the emperor wants to know who is the real evil star, he can take the two The princess was placed in the village for three days. Once the monsters were rampant in Minhui Village, it was a warning from the heavens. If one of the two princesses is innocent, the heavens will bless her safe and sound. Otherwise, the real demon star will be killed. And I know."

Yue Jing'an's voice is soft and long, it's not as rigid as the empress's, and it's not as sweet and crisp as the noble concubine Yue's. burning heart.

She glanced at Ming Shengdi, who was deep in thought, and Yue Guifei, who seemed a little impatient, and continued: "These two things save the emperor from the pain of removing the demon star by himself, after all, it is the emperor's." Flesh and blood, even if you have to do it, how can you not feel heartbroken?"

Emperor Ming Sheng's pupils that were as deep as Wang Hai narrowed, and before he could say anything, he saw Concubine Yue Gui who was beside him impatiently took an arm of Emperor Ming Sheng, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this concubine feels that Sister Concubine Lian This method is too indecisive. Now that the demon star is in our hands, we can naturally grasp it. If she is allowed to go outside the palace, the village is connected with roads leading in all directions. What should we do if she runs away? !"

Concubine Yue was very annoyed at Yue Jing'an's meddling in her own business, and she was afraid that Ming Shengdi would listen to Yue Jing'an's words and really let the two princesses into the village.

You must know that the efficacy of the Raksha powder is only three days, and now it is a critical moment for the plan to be completed. If Xia Zijin dies and the villagers return to their original state, it will naturally appear divine. If the two princesses are locked in the village, three Everyone must be safe and sound in the future, doesn't it mean that all this is a fraud?
"Your majesty, you can't just let the tiger go back to the mountain because of a momentary soft-heartedness. The mission of the princess is to contribute to the emperor and Da Lai. Now that they need to make sacrifices, it is understandable. The concubines are also for the emperor's consideration. If the emperor has something Not good, how can the princesses live with face..."

Imperial Concubine Yue spoke every word with certainty, constantly touching the heartstrings of Ming Shengdi's heart, only to see that Ming Shengdi was in a dilemma at this time, feeling that the opinions of both of them were reasonable, and did not know how to make a decision.

Yue Jing'an sneered in her heart, this Shui Yanran really vowed not to give up until she achieved her goal, so let's see who is more skilled!
"Why does elder sister Yue insist that the emperor take the lives of the two princesses? Tiger poison does not eat children, and the emperor is a wise emperor through the ages. How can he be compared with King Zhou and other foolish kings who killed their sons and wives? Could it be because the princesses of the two wei Sister Yue came from, so it’s not easy to say? If one of them is the fourth princess today, what about Sister Yue?”

Yue Jing'an's remarks were unavoidably sharp, and she pointed her finger at Concubine Yue, with a slight smile on her lips, as if she was just speaking bluntly, but she had already drawn Ming Shengdi's attention to Concubine Yue.

"The two younger sisters are both thinking about the emperor, so there is no need to engage in more verbal disputes. It is human nature to be biased for selfishness. It is also right for the noble concubine sister to prefer the fourth princess. Why should the concubine Lian insist on it?"

The empress spoke at the right time, and sighed softly. Although it was a slightly reproachful tone to Yue Jing'an, she convicted Concubine Yue of doting on her own daughter and disregarding her female life, which made Ming Shengdi frowned and was unhappy about it. .

"Empress Mingjian, how come the concubine is biting Sister Yue, but Sister Yue is probably too concerned about the emperor, and she is thinking about what she shouldn't." The good-looking Emperor Ming said quietly, "You must know that the death of the princess is an unprecedented event. Besides, two princesses were executed at the same time. If it is to eradicate the demon star, another innocent and fresh life will be taken for nothing, and the news will spread." , Sister Yue tells the people in the world how to treat the emperor?"

Concubine Yue looked coldly at Yue Jing'an who spoke so well, and the handkerchief she was holding was also crumpled. She raised her eyes to see Emperor Ming's displeasure at her. Said: "Your Majesty, my concubine dare not..."

Ming Shengdi stroked his beard, and the calculation in his heart was already biased towards Yue Jing'an, only to see Yue Jing'an slightly bent her knees and blessed the noble concubine Yue: "Sister is just speaking bluntly for a while, sister Yue must not take it to heart. Everyone knows Yue Jing'an Elder sister is an excellent person, how could she incite the emperor to kill her daughter and get infamous..."

At this moment, Concubine Yue can't wait to sew Yue Jing'an's mouth together, so how can she say something with flattering words hidden in the cotton?If she mentioned that Emperor Ming should execute the princess again, she might be as suspicious as he was, and would start to doubt her intentions.

"That's natural..." Concubine Yue squeezed out a few words with a strange expression, her hands were hidden in her sleeves and pinched white.

Ming Shengdi glanced at the two of them, clenched his fists and thought secretly, finally nodded and said: "So, let's do it according to Concubine Lian's idea."

After all, he is afraid of people's words.

The king is like a boat, and the people are like water. Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize it.If he really executed his two daughters, he might lose his reputation in the eyes of the common people. Wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss.

"My concubine, thank the emperor for his trust." Yue Jing'an slightly bent her knees and said, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, elegant and fragrant.

Concubine Yue was biting a silver tooth, she stood aside but couldn't speak.She absolutely cannot tolerate such a well-planned plan being ruined by Yue Jing'an, Xia Zijin must die!
The morning light protruded through Concubine Yue's pupils, reflecting a ray of light, no one could smell it, there was a smell of conspiracy in it.

On the other side, Xia Zijin and Xia Ziwu in the prison were leaning against each other in the cell. Both of them had dull eyes, chapped lips, and looked extremely dehydrated.

"Sister Zijin... Do you think the cell bosses in the prison are really so ruthless today, even refusing to give us food and water..."

Xia Ziwu's breath flowed like silk, and her body was soft and stomping against Xia Zijin. Compared with Xia Zijin, her body was weaker, and at this moment she felt a little difficult even to speak.

Xia Zijin shook her head, her body was equally weak. It stands to reason that even if they became prisoners, they had not been deprived of their status. Otherwise, if it leaks out, the flattery will fail, and they will lose their heads instead.

In this case, there is only one possibility, and that is to be instigated by someone. As for who this person is, she can figure it out with her fingers.

"Ninth Sister, after all, I got you into trouble." Xia Zijin smiled self-deprecatingly. At the moment, she felt as if she was useless. She couldn't deal with Concubine Yue and Xia Ziqi, and she couldn't save herself or Xia Ziwu.

Xia Ziwu didn't know the truth about the disaster of the demon star, and he was still brooding about the evidence found in his yard.She raised her head and glanced at Xia Zijin, who was also suffering from an innocent disaster, and felt a sense of sympathy for each other.

I saw Xia Ziwu struggled to move his body to be side by side with Xia Zijin, patted the back of her hand and said: "Sister Zijin, why should I blame myself, we are all just bad luck, if there is someone as noble as the queen or The noble concubine Lianfei is so favored by her mother and concubine, how did she end up in this situation today."

After finishing speaking, Xia Ziwu leaned back against the wall and said, "My concubine mother is a little nobleman, and I will die for the rest of my life. I have been alone in the West Palace these years, and I have to be strong in everything. She is the most serious and hardworking in everything, but she is still not as good as Xia Ziqi. If it weren't for her having a favored mother and concubine, how could she be favored by her father because of her mediocrity."

Xia Ziwu smiled mockingly, his pale lips were drawn into a line, it was unwillingness and sorrow.

At this moment, there were crisp applause in the aisle of the prison, accompanied by the brisk footsteps of the woman, walking towards the two of them step by step.
