Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 150 Confrontation in the main hall

Chapter 150 Confrontation in the main hall
Concubine Hua was confining her feet in Ximeng Palace, when suddenly, Fupu from Xianya Palace came, claiming that she was invited by His Majesty to come to Xianya Palace.

Concubine Hua was startled, could it be because of Concubine Chen falling into the water?
Feeling apprehensive, she called two maidservants to follow her, and followed Fupu to Xianya Palace.

Haishi, inside Xianya Palace.

Zhi Zi took a cloak for Shang Kelan to put on, and no one in the hall spoke first.

At this time, Fupu came in with Concubine Hua, and after saluting to everyone, he stepped aside.

Seeing Concubine Jia, the Empress Dowager, and His Majesty were all there, Concubine Hua's eyelids twitched, and a bad premonition rose in her heart.

She hurriedly bowed to everyone, waiting for His Majesty to give her a seat, but she heard Jin Yantang say to Concubine Chen: "Since Concubine Hua is here, if you have anything to say, you can talk to her face to face!"

Concubine Hua subconsciously looked at Concubine Jia, but Concubine Jia avoided her eyes asking for help.

Concubine Hua was stunned. At this moment, Shang Kelan looked at her and said, "Li Yuanchun, haven't you destroyed the letters in your palace yet?"

Suddenly being called by Shang Kelan's name, Concubine Hua couldn't help but froze for a moment, then frowned and said: "What letter, I don't understand what you are talking about!"

Shang Kelan said unhurriedly: "Naturally, it is the letter between you and Governor Li, which also records the hiding place of the disaster money, and General Mingwei Zhao Yihai discovered the disaster money when he was looking for my elder brother. Yin, but he suddenly got greedy and concealed the truth, you don’t know where you got the news, so you threatened Zhao Yihai with the matter of disaster silver, and planted the matter on my elder brother’s head.”

"Besides, since you entered the palace, you have always regarded me as a thorn in your side, a thorn in your flesh, targeting me everywhere, and you even want to use this matter to ferment and drive me into a place where I will never recover!"

The words were sharp, but Concubine Hua's legs softened, and she couldn't help but knelt on the ground.

But immediately, she came to her senses, kowtowed to Jin Yantang and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine has been wronged! It's all concubine Chen who wronged my concubine!"

As she said that, she raised her head and glared at Shang Kelan: "Since you dare to say that, find out the evidence if you have the ability!"

Shang Kelan smiled slightly, looked up at Jin Yantang and said, "His Majesty sent people to Dongshi Wharf to search for Governor Li's cargo ship an hour ago. Just wait a moment, and the truth will surface."

No matter how much it is said, it will not help. Only the truth can convince everyone.

Jin Yantang's eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't speak, but Shang Kelan looked at Concubine Hua, her deep peach eyes seemed to be able to see through everything: "Concubine Hua, if you hand over the letter honestly, I will still be able to send you a letter to Your Majesty." Please spare your life, if you are stubborn, when His Majesty sends someone to search the letter from your bedroom, you will only die!"

A dead end!
When Concubine Hua heard this, her pupils shrank sharply, and she subconsciously grabbed the champagne in her hand.

But she pursed her lips tightly and said stubbornly: "The concubine is wronged!"

As she said that, she looked at Shang Kelan again, and yelled at her: "Concubine Chen, you bastard, you have such a vicious mind, you actually put the crime of your elder brother on my head, Li Yuanchun, I..."

"Then you dare to swear a poisonous oath to prove that you have nothing to do with Zhao Yihai?"

She was stopped by Shang Kelan before she could finish her sentence.

These words were meaningful, but the Queen Mother's expression changed, and Jin Yantang narrowed his eyes slightly.

This "entanglement" is a pun, which not only refers to the fact that Concubine Hua and Zhao Yihai conspired to swallow the disaster money, but also refers to other unclear relationships between her and Zhao Yihai.

Concubine Hua's face turned pale, and she held the handkerchief tightly.

The Empress Dowager slapped the table angrily, pointed at Concubine Hua and said, "Concubine Hua, do you really have any unclear involvement with General Mingwei?"

Now, it's no good not to swear!

Concubine Hua felt ruthless, gritted her teeth, raised four fingers in disbelief, and said, "I, Li Yuanchun, swear here that if there is any unclear connection with Zhao Yihai, I will die badly and the whole family will be imprisoned!"

This oath was cruel enough to involve the entire Li family.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager's complexion improved slightly.

At this moment, a guard from outside the door rushed in and knelt down to report: "Your Majesty, after Commander Jiang seized Governor Li's cargo ship at Dongshi Wharf, he found 7 taels of silver from the cargo ship. The palace seal with the national treasury is exactly the batch of missing disaster money!"

Suddenly, the entire hall was silent.

The Empress Dowager has heard all about the matter since she sat in the hall, and now she listens to the news from the guard, what is there that she doesn't understand?
She was so angry that she threw a teacup on Concubine Hua's forehead!
Concubine Hua trembled, subconsciously dodging away.

"boom!"

There was a sound of explosion, and the blue and white porcelain teacup fell on the marble floor and shattered into pieces.

The scalding hot water inside was also sprinkled on the ground, emitting bursts of white smoke.

But Concubine Hua's face was no different from that of the white smoke.

It's terrible, if this cup of hot tea falls on her face, it's no wonder that her face won't be scalded off a layer of skin!
Jin Yantang narrowed his eyes slightly, got up and walked out: "Follow me out of the palace, to Dongshi Wharf!"

Things really happened as Concubine Chen said, and the physical evidence has been found by Concubine Chen.

Everyone saw Concubine Hua's expression. If she had nothing to do with this matter, no one would believe it even if she was beaten to death!

Just when Jin Yantang was about to leave the palace, Shang Kelan stood up and stopped her: "Your Majesty, that Concubine Hua..."

Jin Yantang glanced at Concubine Hua coldly, and said: "Put Concubine Hua into the Water Fiber Palace and keep it under strict supervision. Withdraw all maids and servants from the Water Fiber Palace. No one is allowed to enter the Water Fiber Palace to visit. Tomorrow Wushi, concubine Hua will be escorted to the palace." Take it to Xianya Palace for trial!"

But Jin Yantang still didn't say anything about releasing Shang Kelin.

Seeing this, Shang Kelan couldn't help sighing inwardly.

This man is really vigilant, he will let him go completely only if he is sure that this is not a conspiracy.

In short, she will never lose this game.

And Concubine Hua can't control such a large layout by herself. Recently, she seems to be very close to Concubine Jia...

"Chen and concubine respectfully send your majesty."

As soon as Jin Yantang left, everyone saluted and sent him off.

After they got up, Concubine Jia's eyes flickered, she raised her eyes to look at the Empress Dowager, and said hesitantly: "Empress Dowager, but this letter is really strange, if it wasn't written by Concubine Chen, who would it be?"

At this time, the queen mother turned her attention to the letter in her hand.

Immediately, she frowned, looked at Shang Kelan and said, "Concubine Chen, you took the topic away just now, and you haven't explained it to Aijia, what is going on with this letter?"

Shang Kelan shook her head, and said innocently: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, perhaps some villain could not see the concubine investigate the case and find out the truth, so he used such a trick to deal with the concubine. Besides, the concubine already has evidence to reverse the case. , how could it be unnecessary to write this letter to my father?"

As she said that, Shang Kelan looked at Concubine Jia puzzled again, and said slowly: "Besides, the palace gate that leaves the palace is not close to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, why did the concubine ask the maid Xiaoye to detour to send the letter out of the palace instead of Should I choose a safer shortcut? Or, could it be that the concubine's father was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation?"
