Rebirth after waste

Chapter 87

"Bo Baolin?" Such an unexpected title was mentioned, but the emperor's expression did not fluctuate much, "Why do you worship her?"

Gong'e cried: "Because, I always dream about her these days...In the dream, she was standing under the plum tree over there, her face was covered with blood, it was terribly scary... The servant thought, maybe it was her. The death day is approaching, and I will wander around the world if I feel unwilling. So the servants came here to burn some paper money for her, praying for her to rest in peace as soon as possible, and stop pestering me..."

"You said she was unwilling and still haunting you?" The emperor raised his eyebrows, and suddenly remembered, "Where did you work in the past?"

Gong'e swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with difficulty: "It's just...in Bo Baolin Palace..."

"Bo Baolin's palace servant..." Gu Yunxian looked at the emperor, "Why does this concubine have a bad feeling?"

The emperor didn't speak, but the maid suddenly screamed and pointed to a certain plum tree, "There! There is a figure there! It must be her! She is the one who came to seek my life!" Kowtowed in that direction, " Wife, please let me go! I didn’t kill you! You have a debtor, go find the person who killed you, and stop pestering me! I beg you to let me go!”

She appeared to be insane, speaking incoherently, and she was clearly frightened out of her wits.

The commotion was so great that the palace guards who were guarding the door quickly rushed over upon hearing the news.

Kneeling in front of the emperor, Lu Chuan asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, what happened here?" Looking at Gong'e who was still kowtowing, "But this servant girl is shocked?"

The emperor didn't make a sound, but just looked at the direction of her kowtow coldly.Lu Chuan looked over suspiciously, but saw nothing but darkness.

The emperor suddenly stepped up and walked there without saying a word.

Gu Yunxian was startled, "Your Majesty!"

The emperor looked back.

"Let the guards go over and have a look, don't take risks with your precious body." She frowned, "If there is anything, I'm worried..."

He looked at her, and suddenly smiled, "Yunniang, do you also believe in ghosts and gods?"

She whispered: "The concubine certainly believes it."

It dawned on him.The queen mother worshiped Buddha sincerely during her lifetime, and Yunniang followed her and received a lot of influence, so of course she would believe in this.Seeing that her eyes were full of worry, he didn't want to go against her wishes, so he said to the two guards beside him: "Both of you, go over there and have a look."

The two guards went, and came back after a while, kneeling in front of the emperor, "Your Majesty, I have carefully inspected the surrounding area, and only found the burnt incense paper money under a plum tree. Nothing at all."

After hearing this, Gong'e did not heave a sigh of relief, she still couldn't help trembling, "She will come back...she will come back..."

"Enough!" Gu Yunxian said coldly, "Seeing that you are afraid of becoming like this, you are obviously guilty of a thief. What have you done to sorry Bo Baolin, you'd better explain it in full, otherwise you don't need Bo Baolin If you come back from the underworld to claim your life, this palace and His Majesty will not spare you."

After hearing this, Gong'e immediately argued: "No! This servant did not do anything wrong to her! I didn't do it!" She crawled all the way to Gu Yunxian's feet, "It's none of the servant's business to be a maid! Your concubine is instigating behind the scenes! The slaves are also being forced!"

Gu Yunxian heard the words "Zhengui Ji", took a breath of air-conditioning, turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty..."

The emperor didn't look at her, but stared at Gong'e who was crying bitterly, smiled lazily, his eyes were full of indifference, "This plum garden is really a good place to discover secrets."

In the early morning of the second day, all the palaces and halls received news that Empress Yuan Chongrong invited everyone to Hanzhang Hall to discuss important matters.

In fact, there was no need for her to invite her, and everyone planned to go to Hanzhang Hall to find out the news.There was quite a change in the palace the night before, and everyone more or less heard the wind. Seeing the palace man who sent the message, they immediately understood that something was going to happen.

This idea became more firm after entering the hall and seeing Zhen Guiji also present.

The emperor had already turned down at this moment, so he was sitting in the upper seat, with Gu Yunxian by his side, greeting everyone with a calm expression.

After everyone attended the meeting, Gu Yunxian said: "I invite you to come here today because there is a big matter to deal with. Because many of us are involved, I dare not close the door and settle it in private. I have to say it in front of everyone. Just be clear."

Yu Shuyi said: "Sister Gu said it so carefully, but I don't know what it is?"

Gu Yunxian glanced at the emperor, seeing that he didn't intend to speak, so he could only continue: "Actually, everyone is familiar with this matter. It's about Bo Baolin who was convicted and died two years ago."

As soon as these words came out, Jin Muhua's body tensed up suddenly, and he looked at Gu Yunxian sharply.

"Last night, I went to the Plum Garden with His Majesty to collect plums, but I didn't want to bump into a maidservant there who was secretly worshiping someone." Gu Yunxian said, "I only found out after careful questioning that she She used to be an errand in Bo Baolin Palace, and it was she, the old master, who worshiped last night."

Zhuang Jieyu said: "If it's just a private worship, the empress can handle it on her own. She will mobilize everyone to call us all over, presumably something else happened?"

Gu Yunxian nodded, "There are indeed other things. It's just this matter..." He hesitated, "Forget it, let's bring her up first."

After a while, the eunuch dragged a maid into the hall.She looked terrified and was still shaking slightly as she knelt down.

"Yu Liu?" Ling Chongyuan frowned, "Are you Yu Liu?"

Gong'e didn't make a sound, Gu Yunxian said: "Jing Niang, you read that right, this Gong'e is indeed called Yuliu. You can still call her by her name now, it seems that you have a deep impression of her!"

Ling Chongyuan said indifferently: "Bo Baolin was a member of my palace when she was alive, and this Jade Willow is one of her most valued maidservants. She has also sent things to my palace a few times, so I naturally have an impression."

Gu Yun smiled enviously, "As Jingniang said, this Yuliu used to be considered a face in front of Bo Baolin. Later, Bo Baolin was convicted and died, and some of the palace servants in her palace were sent to Yongxiang, and the rest were sent to Yongxiang one after another. She was assigned to serve in another palace. Yuliu was assigned to Ling'an Palace."

"Ling'an Palace?" Ming Chongyi raised an eyebrow, "No one lives in that place! Being sent to serve in this kind of palace has no future."

"It's better to serve in a remote and desolate palace than to lose your life." Yu Shuyi said, "I still remember that after Bo Baolin was bestowed to death, several of her close court ladies were also bestowed to death. This Jade Willow is lucky, it's fine that she wasn't given death, and she didn't even enter Yongxiang. I think she is not too young, she has been in Ling'an Palace for a few years, and she will be able to leave the palace and return to her hometown at the age of 25. "

"Yeah, it's really good luck." Gu Yunxian said, "But this luck was given by God, or she won it by herself, so she has to carefully consider it."

"What does sister Gu mean by that?" Yu Shuyi asked.

Gu Yunxian sighed, "The reason why this maid worshiped Bo Baolin was because she had nightmares every night that Bo Baolin came to seek her life. She felt that it was Bo Baolin's evil spirit who refused to let her go, so Run there to worship her, hoping to let her rest in peace." Looking at Rou Wanyi, "Do you know where she worships Bo Baolin in the Plum Garden?"

Seeing what her eyes were pointing at, everyone knew that it had something to do with Rou Wanyi.Yu Shuyi frowned and thought for a moment, then hesitated and said, "It can't be, the plum tree that Rou Wanyi fell over, right?"

"Ms. Shuyi's guess is right, it's right there."

The hall was silent.

Gu Yunxian added indifferently: "The reason why she chose to be there is because in her dream, Bo Baolin's soul stood under the plum tree, covered in blood, miserable and terrifying."

All the palace concubines are quick-witted people, and soon some people understood what she meant, "Bo Baolin was given to death because of a vain attempt to harm Rou Wanyi's son, and now this maid worships her at the place where Rou Wanyi fell , Could it be that Bo Baolin was wronged?"

"The matter of ghosts and gods is illusory after all, how can it be used as evidence?" A palace concubine disagreed.

"The ghosts and gods may be false, but I believe that there is something in the day and a dream in the night. Since this palace lady dreamed of Bo Baolin standing there, and she is someone who knows the inside story, there must be some basis. You can look it up along the way." Zhuang Jieyu said.

Gu Yunxian said: "I think so too, so I ordered someone to interrogate her overnight."

"What's the result?" Yu Shuyi asked.

"It turned out to be, but..." At this point, she suddenly stopped, turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, you should say it. I don't want to participate too much, so as not to be said to be taking personal revenge .”

The emperor who had been silent all this time looked at her and nodded in agreement.Gu Yunxian ignored everyone's surprised gazes and kept silent.

The emperor's expression was still three points indifferent, and his tone was also lazy, "Who is that, Yuliu, right? Tell yourself."

Yuliu was silent for a moment, and then tremblingly said: "No..." Intermittently, "The reason why Bo Baolin went...to murder Rou Wanyi's womb is actually because of someone's instigation..."

"who?"

"It's...the Empress Zhengui of Cheng'an Hall..."

When she said this, not many people were surprised.The rumor that Bo Jinrou cursed Concubine Zhengui before she died had spread throughout the palace.Believe it or not, everyone has doubts about this.Now hearing Yuliu's words, some people even feel that their guesses have been confirmed, and they are very relieved.

Zhen Guiji, who suddenly became the center of sight, remained expressionless.In fact, she has been like this since she came in today, her expression is as calm as a thousand-year-old well, which will never stir up waves.

"At the beginning, Bo Baolin obeyed Zhenguiji's order and bought the eunuch Amu of the plum garden, let him pour water under a plum tree in the garden to freeze, and then deliberately lured Rou Wanyi and Yuan Chongrong over, in order to Using Rou Wanyi's unborn son to frame the empress as a scapegoat. However, the plan went wrong. Not only did the emperor's descendants not be damaged, but the empress Rongrong did not fall into the trap. Ji Zhengui knew that this matter had aroused His Majesty's suspicion, It was bound to be handed over to someone else, so she chose to sacrifice Bo Baolin..."
