imperial concubine

Chapter 196
Just now Su Wan was forced down by two eunuchs to look at the injuries of the ten people, and seeing the pleading and fear on these familiar faces, Su Wan's heart ached like a knife.These are the people I am most familiar with in my daily life.

After coming up, she immediately heard the Queen's words. Su Wan took a few deep breaths to calm down her mind. Then her cherry lips parted slightly, and a cold word was squeezed out from between her lips, "Hit!"

Although it was just a simple word, everyone present could hear that Su Wan exhausted all her strength before uttering this word.The little eunuch standing next to Su Wan could even hear the creaking of Su Wan's teeth.

Hearing Su Wan's words, the queen was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Wan in disbelief and said, "What did you just say? Say it again, I didn't hear clearly just now."

At first, I thought that Su Wan was just an ordinary girl, as long as she saw blood, and those people who were very close to her were beaten to pieces, no matter if it was compassion in her heart or weakness in her legs, she would not Hit again.

Su Wan opened her closed eyes, stared at the queen with wide eyes, and said, "I want to report to the empress, the concubine just said yes, hit." The last word was still so powerful, I didn't see Su Wan Like a little weak heart.

Now concubine Shu and the queen looked at Su Wan with admiration.You must know that there are many people who can see this, and there are also many people who can know how to do it, but there are very few people who see it and do it!
Seeing Su Wan's decisiveness, the queen nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, since you said to fight, then I will continue to fight!" Then she said to the guards below: "The fourth concubine has something to say, continue to fight!"

Originally, as a queen, she would never spread the word for Su Wan.But Su Wan shocked her so much today that she unconsciously admired her.And the reason why she spoke for Su Wan just now was to drive a wedge between Su Wan and the people around her.

The howling wind sounded in front of the main hall, and the mournful howling echoed in the square.Su Wan looked at the people who were beaten in the square, she wanted to write down this scene, and in the future, she would definitely find it back on the queen!

After another five or six blows, a female voice cried out: "Prince Concubine, Empress, don't beat me any more, please spare this servant! This servant is willing to recruit, and this servant is willing to tell everything!"

Following the sound, I saw a little palace maid crying and calling to recruit in the corner.The queen glanced at Su Wan triumphantly. Su Wan's face was expressionless, neither the anger of being betrayed nor the resentment that went deep into the marrow.

The queen waved to ask someone to bring the little girl up. Su Wan had seen her several times. She was a very lively and cheerful little girl who often followed Zhuru. Su Wan seemed to vaguely remember that this maid was called Yun show.

Looking at the court lady lying in front of her, the queen asked very kindly: "What's your name?" Yunxiu was obviously frightened by the beating, she didn't even dare to lift her head, and said timidly: "Reporting to your mother, the servant's name is Yunxiu. show."

Before Zhuru recruited a group of confidantes in Yiliang Palace, this Yunxiu was still young, and because of her lively nature, she was not at all calm, so Zhuru hadn't accepted her into the system of Yiliang Palace yet.

Hearing the name Yunxiu, the queen nodded lightly and said: "Yunxiu, that's a good name. Yunxiu, I ask you, has your concubine asked you to deliver a letter in the imperial pharmacy?"

The queen couldn't decide whether this Yunxiu knew what Su Wan was doing secretly, so she used a sentence to lead Yunxiu to say the following, as long as she spoke, Su Wan could be convicted!

Yunxiu lay on the ground and thought carefully for a long time, then said: "Reporting to the empress, the concubine did ask the servant to send a letter to the imperial pharmacy before. But I don't know what was written in the letter."

The queen on the chair couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard Yunxiu's words.Before, Su Wan could not be convicted, but now with the confession of Su Wan's personal companions, even if Su Wan has great skills now, he still can't find the palm of his hand!
After laughing, the queen glanced at Su Wan without a trace, and saw that Su Wan had no fear on her face, and she was still not afraid at all. The queen snorted coldly, and then continued to ask: "I ask you, is that letter sent to you?" In the hands of Liu Banxia from the imperial pharmacy?"

Concubine Shu on the side sneered, this Yunxiu obviously didn't know anything, just because she was scared of being beaten just now, so she followed the Queen's words, if the Queen said something, she agreed.Now the queen is talking about Taiyang Shifang, and Yunxiu will definitely respond immediately.

Sure enough, Yunxiu said in a low voice: "The empress's eyesight is perfect, that letter was sent by the concubine to Liu Banxia from the royal pharmacy. Apart from that, the servant doesn't know anything about it."

Yunxiu's courage has been broken now, she will concoct what the queen says according to the law, and just add the word "imperial concubine".However, at least she has not completely lost her mind, and she also knows to add the sentence that she doesn't know anything at the end.

The queen nodded, then waved at the two eunuchs next to her, and brought Su Wan over. The queen looked at Su Wan and asked, "Su Wan, now that the facts and evidence are all there, even your personal maid came out to identify you, don't you think so?" Haven't pleaded guilty yet?"

If it was someone else's Su Wan, I'm afraid the effect would be worse. After all, Su Wan had just entered the palace, and few people knew her.But if Su Wan's personal maid points it out, it can be confirmed that Su Wan must have done these things!

Hearing what the queen said, Su Wan glanced at the queen, and then said coldly: "Queen, Su Wan has never done such a thing, so naturally she will not plead guilty! No matter how many people you find to frame me, it's the same !"

Although Yunxiu had betrayed Su Wan just now, Su Wan didn't blame Yunxiu in her heart.After all, she was too young. Although she had received some small favors from herself, it was not worth her life for it. It was reasonable for her to do so.

The queen who was sitting on the chair slapped the armrest fiercely, stood up and said angrily: "Bold Su Wan! Now that the facts and evidence are all available, you still want to deny it! Not only that, you even slandered me, it's really disgusting!"

The queen didn't know who did it.But it doesn't matter who did it now, the important thing is to let everyone in the harem see his determination.As long as the real murderer is there, we can slowly investigate in the future.

Su Wan glanced at the queen with a sneer, and then said: "Why is there no excuse for the crime you want to inflict? The empress is so painstaking and lonely that she even beat up the maids around Su Wan. What else can Su Wan say?"

Things are going step by step according to my plan. Although it is a bit dangerous for me to go here, if my plan can be successful, I can immediately gain a firm foothold in the palace!With such a big return, you should take some risks.

Seeing Su Wan's expression, the queen snorted coldly, and then said: "Hmph, sophistry!" Then she turned and walked towards the main hall, her voice echoed behind her, "Send all the eunuchs and maids who are related to the elixir Bring them all to me!"

Now that the overall situation has been decided, there is Dexi in the East Palace to testify, Liu Banxia in the Imperial Pharmacy as proof, and Yunxiu in the Yiliang Palace to give a statement. These three parties are strung together to cover Su Wan tightly like a net of heaven and earth. The queen gave the last decree.

Concubine Lin, who was sitting in the hall, saw that the queen came in first, and quickly got up and asked, "Your Majesty, the outside affairs are over already? Did you ask any questions?"

Concubine Lin just now entered the hall because she couldn't get used to those bloody scenes.At this moment, he couldn't hear the shouts outside the palace, and he only thought that the ten personal attendants of Su Wan in Yiliang Palace had been beaten, that's why he asked this question.

The queen sat in the middle, and then said to Concubine Lin with a smile: "That's not true. Not long after my sister entered the palace, a person found out with conscience and confessed everything. Now Su Wan can't deny it at all."

Concubine Lin was taken aback for a moment, then she thought about it.The queen was beaten with such a heavy board, even if nine out of ten people were good men, the remaining one would also be beaten. Naturally, whatever the queen said, she would respond.

Thinking that Concubine Lin and Concubine Shu had exchanged colors, Concubine Shu nodded slightly, Concubine Lin knew in her heart that she was right just now.As expected, it was the empress who beat her into a trick and fabricated a crime against the fourth concubine Su Wan in order to show her prestige and evil spirit.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a groan from outside, then Shi Dou walked in first, and then Dexi, Liu Banxia and an unknown court lady were carried in by several guards.The three of them were all covered with blood, obviously they had all been tortured.

The queen took a sip of tea, and then asked: "Now the matter is clear. Now I will tell you what all of you are responsible for in this matter, and see if I have wronged you!"

Seeing the bloodstains on the three people's bodies, Concubine Lin frowned involuntarily.They have already been beaten into such a state, so what if there is really a grievance in their hearts?Do you dare to sue you who is sitting in the courtroom!

The queen said slowly: "First of all, it was Yunxiu, Su Wan who delivered the letter to Liu Banxia in the Yiliang Palace, and you sent it to the imperial pharmacy with your own hands, so that the two of them could communicate with each other! This palace speaks very well. Right?" Yunxiu responded lightly.

Then the queen turned her eyes on Liu Banxia, ​​and said with a sneer: "The most important thing in this matter is you, Liu Banxia, ​​Eunuch Liu. You will take out all the pills, and then hand them over to Shi Dou, and ask him to distribute them to the East Palace." The person who received the medicine, I have wronged you!"

At the end of the queen's words, her voice was very harsh. At this time, Liu Banxia knew that she could not continue to live, and she only wanted to stop being tortured and die happily, so she nodded with great difficulty.

Then there was Shi Dou, "Then Shi Dou gave the refined pill to Dexi as the daily pill for the prince, and then Dexi gave it to the prince to take. This is the whole story! Ben Gong Didn't wrong you?"

At this time, the queen's arrogance was in full swing, and no one in the main hall of the East Palace dared to look at the queen, not to mention that the queen said that these people were just ordinary eunuchs and maids, and they dared not offend the queen's majesty.

At this moment, only one person said loudly: "Empress, you have wronged me!"
