Rebirth after waste

Chapter 88

Ming Chongyi took a breath of cold air when he heard the words, and glanced at Zhen Guiji with a half-smile, "There is such a thing, it really opened my eyes!"

The belligerent mood in her bones was mobilized, and before she had time to express herself, she was interrupted coldly by Ling Chongyuan: "Yue Niang, you'd better listen to Yuliu to finish."

Seeing her expression, Ming Chongyi knew that she didn't agree with him speaking at this time, and when he thought of the promise he made to her not long ago, he felt a little guilty.

She took a sip of tea in a dazed manner, but she stopped talking.

Without Ming Chongyi's interference, Yuliu continued to say in a trembling voice: "Zhen Guiji originally thought that His Majesty would follow along and find out a way to push Bo Baolin out. If he didn't find out there, something went wrong in other places first. The plum garden's Amu felt guilty for a while, and went to peep while His Majesty was driving in the plum garden, but was discovered by His Majesty. Under heavy torture, he confessed to Bo Baolin. "

"If what you said is true, why did he only mention Bo Baolin but not Zhenguiji?" Yu Shuyi asked.

"Because he didn't know that Zhen Guiji was behind the scenes. The only people who approached him from the beginning to the end were Bo Baolin's people." Yuliu said, "Bo Baolin didn't expect that Amu would be arrested suddenly. She denied it. However, the evidence was solid, and her denial was useless. The Queen Mother still gave her the death penalty. She thought that Zhen Guiji would intercede for her, but at that time, Zhen Guiji still didn't say a word. Panicked, I accused Zhen Guiji in front of His Majesty."

When everyone heard her words, they couldn't help but think of that day two years ago, when Bo Jinrou knelt in the Changxin Hall, looked at Jing Fushu, who was still Jieyu at that time, with tearful eyes, and said viciously: "It's you, you're the one who caused it." Me, right! I'm so stupid, I thought you would save me, and even covered it up for you!"

Then she knelt in front of the Queen Mother, weeping, "These things are not the concubine's intention. It was Zhen Jieyu who asked the concubine to do it, and she sent someone to lure Gu Shi out, and let me frame her. The concubine... ...A concubine is nothing more than a threat!"

The queen mother believed these words at first, but then Amu unexpectedly said that he had only met Jing Fushu in the Zhou Palace before, and had not been instructed by her.So Bo Jinrou's accusation was regarded as a random accusation after jumping over the wall.

"During the few days when Bo Baolin was locked in Yongxiang, Zhen Guiji sent someone to send a message to the servant, and asked the servant to comfort her and stop talking nonsense."

Yu Shuyi frowned, "Why did she find you? According to Ling Chongyuan, although you are worthy of Bo Baolin, you are not the person she trusts the most. Why doesn't she find a court lady who is closer to her?"

"Those people were all locked up after Bo Baolin's crime. How could they go to spread the word for her..." Yuliu said, "When Bo Baolin and Zhenguiji made friends, slaves and servants were also punished. A lot of favors from Zhenguiji, so I listened to her orders. The servant told Bo Baolin that Zhenguiji would definitely rescue her, and let her be calm. If she dragged Zhenguiji into the water , we are really going to die together... Mrs. Baolin believed me..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly covered her face, crying uncontrollably, "I didn't expect that after a few days, the lady would really be given to death... Zhen Guiji didn't save her, she just watched her die..."

She cried bitterly, but no one in the palace sympathized with her.

Yu Shuyi looked impatient, "Then what? You were not granted death, but were assigned to Ling'an Palace. Could it be related to Zhen Guiji?"

"Yes..." Yuliu said, "After Baolin's lady is gone, the servant is very afraid. If Zhen Guiji can kill my lady, she can also kill the servant. In order to avoid the same fate as the lady, the servant put this I told a court lady I had a good relationship with, wrote a letter explaining it, and also gave her a gold hairpin that Zhengui Ji gave me.

"The slave girl told her that if one day I disappear, then I must have been killed by Zhen Guiji's people. At that time, you can take this thing to your majesty or the empress of a certain palace to expose her true colors !

"Zhen Guiji heard about this incident, and was worried that the servant girl would really reveal what she had done, so she managed to avoid the servant girl's death penalty and arranged for me to go to Ling'an Palace. After that, she asked me to take the life of my parents at home. I swear, I will never let this matter out. When I reach the age of leaving the palace, I will leave honestly and never return to Yudu..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yunxian winked at the palace servant next to her.Immediately, a sandalwood tray came up from the other side, and inside was a red gold hairpin inlaid with red jewels, shining golden and very gorgeous.

Yu Shuyi picked it up and looked at it carefully, and said: "I remember, this is indeed sister Zhen's. She wore it several times when she first entered the palace."

Yuliu's words come first, and Yu Shuyi's words follow. For this reason, everyone understands what happened.

Looking at the different eyes of everyone, Zhen Guiji, who had been silent all this time, smiled slightly, and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, do you believe this?"

The emperor looked at her, and there seemed to be a smile in his expression, "Then, Ashu, do you think I should believe it?"

"Your Majesty is wise, so naturally you won't be deceived by such nonsense." Zhen Guiji slowly got up and walked slowly to the hall, "Such a servant girl who came out of nowhere, talking to herself for a long time It would be too ridiculous to falsely accuse the courtiers and concubines to murder the emperor's heir!"

The emperor remained calm, "False accusation? Ah Shu, why do you say she is slandering you?"

"Isn't this obvious?" Zhen Guiji said, "She said that the concubine ordered Bo Baolin, what is the evidence? Without evidence, how can it be convincing?"

"She has your gold hairpin, isn't that considered evidence?" Xia Qiongzhang said.

"It's just a golden hairpin. I usually reward my servants with too many things. What does that mean?" Zhen Guiji said coldly.

Xia Qiongzhang was taken aback.After thinking about it carefully, I suddenly realized that indeed, a gold hairpin cannot be used as evidence that she ordered Bo Baolin and his court ladies at all.

Seeing her expression, Zhen Guiji smiled disdainfully, and turned to look at Yuliu, "Since you said that this palace ordered you, do you dare to confront this palace in front of His Majesty and everyone in the sixth palace, eh?"

It seemed that she didn't expect her to be so aggressive at this time, Yu Liu's face was pale with fright, and she stammered: "Servant..."

"Don't be nervous, I can't eat you anymore. If you're telling the truth, you're naturally not afraid to confront me, right?" Zhen Guiji smiled a little, as if she thought her reaction was ridiculous, "I ask, you answer, how?"

Yuliu nodded vigorously.

Everyone looked at the hall, Yuliu knelt tremblingly, Zhenguiji stood imposingly like a rainbow, it looked like Zhenguiji was interrogating Yuliu.

Is the situation reversed?
Zhen Guiji stared at Yuliu, "You said you told your friend what I instructed you, who is that person?"

"Yes... it's Gong'e Xiaodie from the Shangshi Bureau, she and the servants are from the same hometown." Yuliu said.

"About this question, I and Your Majesty have already asked Xiaodie. It is true. If Sister Zhen needs it, I can send her in right away." Gu Yunxian said.

"No need." Zhen Guiji said lightly, "Since Your Majesty and Empress Chongrong have said so, I believe that there is indeed such a person. Anyway, whether that Xiaodie is there or not, what I will say next If so, it doesn't matter much."

"Then what does my sister want to say?" Gu Yun asked enviously.

"What the concubine wants to say is that after all this Jade Willow, the so-called evidence in her hand is just a golden hairpin rewarded by the concubine. Such a worthless thing, coupled with a set of unsubstantiated Can rhetoric threaten the concubine?" Zhen Guiji looked at Gu Yunxian, "If the concubine really did these things, it would be the cleanest way to let her be executed, why bother asking for trouble? Eat to rescue her? Wait for her to testify against me later?"

"It sounds reasonable." Yu Shuyi said slowly.

But Zhuang Jieyu said: "This is not certain. When Bo Baolin was convicted, how complicated was the situation in the palace? The Queen Mother was furious because of the emperor's descendants. If at this time, Bo Baolin's maids ran to Changle Palace to report Zhenguiji , will definitely get the attention of many people. At least from the point of view of my concubine, if the Empress Dowager really hears about such a thing, she will definitely investigate it to the end."

Zhuang Jieyu's words were reserved, but there was another meaning in it that everyone clearly understood.

The queen mother doesn't like Zhen Guiji, if she hears about this kind of thing, she will definitely not give up easily.In addition, the incident happened not long ago, and the clues in all aspects have not been eliminated.If the Empress Dowager investigates carefully, maybe it will be found out.Taking this into consideration, Zhenguiji complied with Yuliu's threat, and it made sense.

It's just saving a court lady, it's not too troublesome.Yuliu was not the most embarrassing court lady around Bo Baolin, as long as she did it skillfully, no one would notice her.

Zhen Guiji naturally knew what Zhuang Jieyu meant, and said calmly: "Well, if you think that I saved her at that time, it was because I was afraid that there would be more troubles in a special period, then what about after that? In nearly two years, I can Slowly deal with this matter, but why do you want to keep such a palace lady and let her become a hidden danger to me?"

"Maybe it's because this hidden danger is so obedient that you slowly put your mind at ease, Madam?" Xia Qiongzhang provocatively asked.

Zhen Guiji shot her sharp eyes, "You have been in the palace for less than a year, and what do you know? How dare you speculate here."

Xia Qiongzhang looked a little ugly when she dismissed it so mercilessly.She is attached to Ming Chongyi, and now that Ming Chongyi is pregnant, she is also proud.Seeing Zhen Guiji's misfortune today, I wanted to join in and make trouble, but I made myself a little embarrassed.

Ming Chongyi saw that her own person was humiliated by Zhengui Ji, and couldn't hold back anymore, raised her beautiful black eyebrows, and said lazily: "I think Xia Qiongzhang's words are very reasonable. Look at this jade willow , I was so frightened after just a few words with you, it can be seen that I am an extremely cowardly person who is afraid of death. Such a person can do unexpected things only under the threat of death. For example, cooperating with his accomplices to threaten you." Smiled slightly, "But if you make it clear that you will spare her life, she will be obedient. I speculate that maybe after you rescued this Yuliu, you saw that she was very obedient, so you never mentioned it and just focused on getting over it." To leave the palace. Coupled with that poisonous oath, I gradually felt relieved of her."

Zhen Guiji looked at Ming Chongyi, clenched her right fist unconsciously.

Ming Chongyi didn't seem to feel her anger, and still said slowly: "What's more, at this time, besides Yu Shuyi who is in charge of the sixth palace in the palace, there is also the highly favored Yuan Chongrong who is assisting the palace affairs. Two This empress is so wise and decisive, if she hears such news, it will be bad."

The mystery in her words is exactly the same as that of Zhuang Jieyu just now.It is false to say that Gu Yunxian is wise and decisive, and the key lies in the great feud between her and Zhen Guiji.Now that she is flourishing in the palace, if Concubine Zhengui has any tricks in her hands, she will naturally take advantage of her.Under such worries, Zhen Guiji didn't dare to act rashly.So he had no choice but to hold back and wait until Yuliu was released from the palace, hoping that there would be no accidents during the process.

After everyone explained this in their hearts, they suddenly felt that it made perfect sense, and they felt suddenly enlightened.

Jing Fushu stood in the hall, and everyone around looked at her, knowing what was going on in her mind without even thinking about it.But at such a time, the king in the hall no longer speaks out to defend as before.

Obviously, he only needs to say that he believes her, and no one dares to bring up these flimsy accusations.

But he didn't.

In fact, she already knew it, didn't she?If one day, she loses his trust and love, she will be overtaken by other women with impunity.

The scene of his last visit to Cheng'an Hall flashed in his mind, it was already a few months ago.He told her then that this was the last time he would favor her.

It turned out to be true.

When the man became ruthless, he really had a heart like iron.

Taking a deep breath, she said slowly, "No matter how much you speculate, it's just speculation." Looking up at the emperor, she slowly knelt down, "If your majesty listens to these words and must punish the concubine, The concubine can only accept it willingly. But no matter what, the concubine has to say that the concubine is innocent!"

When she said this, she raised her head slightly, and there were tears in her eyes that would not fall. She looked strong and forbearing, and she was even more loving.There was no makeup on her small face, it was as clean as a blooming white lotus, the expression was filled with the grief and misery of the innocent being wronged, and one couldn't help but wonder if she had really been wronged.

The emperor stared at her for a long time, and slowly said: "Seeing you like this, Ashu, I almost believe you again." His voice was three minutes lower, "If I hadn't met that person beforehand."
