After rebirth, I made the princes cry

Chapter 122 The Stone Lady is coming back

The emperor came to Bincen Pavilion in a hurry not to solve an unresolved murder case, but to listen to Ying Shu's report. Shi Concubine had promised to let Mrs. He go temporarily. The emperor was actually half-convinced during the journey. Until this moment, He walked through the main hall and saw in the garden surrounded by verandahs. Shi Bing was pinning an early-blooming hibiscus on Yingshu's bun. Yingshu also pinned another hibiscus on Shi Bing's skirt. , and casually gathered the thin cloak on Shi Bin's body, and then he was convinced that Ying Shu was done.

"How did this girl coax A Liao?" His Majesty the Emperor was sincerely curious.

When he asked this question, Ying Shu had already avoided it.

"I am not someone who listens to coaxing." Concubine Shi leaned against the table, bathed in the moonlight, but her eyes were directly facing the emperor's: "I know that I can't make Mrs. He die in the inner court, but there is a thought. The life of my brother and close friend was threatened by Mrs. He, and I knew I couldn't do anything, so I had no choice but to force Your Majesty. It was Yingshu who came up with the plan, and I realized that this time I had made the mistake of the authorities again."

"If Ah Liao had told me her worries earlier, it wouldn't have happened. I would have to hope to find another lobbyist."

"I didn't say anything to Ying Shu. She guessed it, so I believe that she is indeed capable of solving my problem." Shi Concubine still looked at the emperor: "But Your Majesty, Wu Niang's death was all because of the He family. , I understand His Majesty’s difficulties, so I am willing to temporarily mediate with you. I have not forgiven Mr. He. Your Majesty should also know that Mr. He’s hands are stained with the blood of at least two princesses! It was Qiao Concubine who killed her daughter, but He Why did you threaten me to give false testimony for Concubine Qiao? How could she risk helping Concubine Qiao if Concubine Qiao didn't have the leverage to kill her?"

The emperor remained silent and sighed.

"Your Majesty will not forgive such a vicious woman, right?"

"This vicious woman really deserves death."

Only then did Shi Bin move her eyes: "I haven't recovered yet, so I can't stay with you for a long time. I believe Yingshu has already planned the next thing carefully. I believe in her, whether it's out of wisdom or out of control for her." As for her character, Your Majesty should believe her... She could have just told me the truth, or even offered suggestions to take the opportunity to get rid of Yuan Ping. Since Yuan Ping is dead, she also has many ways to get away with it. Accusing the Queen is the way to go. The mastermind is the real culprit. She could even convince the concubine to join her in forcing the Queen. Although the Queen would not be dethroned, there was a high possibility that the Queen could be persuaded to stay in the Xianyang Palace to recuperate. But she did not do such a thing. , she didn’t even have such an idea.”

Sikong Tong knew that the reason why Ying Shu was "condescending" was not because of fear of the queen, nor because of respect for the queen. After all, in the inner court, the only person who really needed to rely on him as the emperor for security was the queen.

"How could I not know that the Queen is becoming more and more vicious because of my tolerance towards her? As for the concubines who are truly powerful, let alone Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zheng, even the He family will not treat her without offending her. Those who benefit are killed indiscriminately, and the queen is indeed this time...if Di Xiu hadn't been on guard, Lily would have been silenced by her first!"

"Only Xiuwei, because she is here, the queen cannot silence her, but the queen must have made arrangements in advance. Your Majesty will trace the details of Lily and Xiuwei, and the clues will only point to Zhaoyang Palace and Yuyin Pavilion. Although I am not Explanation, why the queen must put Yingshu to death, but the concubine is not the slightest threat to the queen. The queen only wanted to harm Yingshu, so she planned such a vicious plan, and even the concubine was not spared... I think of these years, The queen often expressed her greetings to me, and was extremely concerned about Wu Niang's condition. I never thought that under the appearance of a living Buddha, she would have such a heart of a snake and a scorpion. It was really, shuddering. Naturally, the one I hated the most was the He family, but I am not afraid of her, but the one I am really afraid of is actually the queen."

"Ah Liao, I will personally select the people in your palace from now on. I guarantee that I will not let anyone's eyes and ears lie dormant around you again."

Shi Concubine accepted it as soon as she saw it was good.

In fact, she is not afraid of death, and she no longer hopes to give birth to children. Wu Niang is her only sweetheart. No matter Wu Niang lives or dies, no one in the world can replace Wu Niang. Whether her life will be long or short has already been decided. It doesn't matter anymore, what she's afraid of is just that she didn't witness He's death first. She's afraid that if she dies first, no one will remind the monarch that our daughter was killed by this vicious woman, He.

-

Yingshu is not in a hurry to sleep tonight. She knows that His Majesty the Emperor will definitely summon her, and maybe he will "take her back" to the Qianyuan Palace on the way. She is now on the verandah outside her bedroom, looking at the ladies in the palace with great interest. The leaf cards used for leisure were different from the ones she played outside the palace. The characters painted on the leaf cards she played in the past were all recorded in history, but the leaf cards played by Yuanping and others just now, The paintings are all of legendary ghosts and gods.

As a light ghost with only one hand and one foot, this was the first time that Yingshu saw such a concrete painting, and it was also divided into men and women. The male light ghost looked like a beast, but the female light ghost was painted extremely coquettishly. What exactly is such a leaf card? Who drew it?

She had just asked the palace maids, but they said that the leaf plaque was bought from the chamberlain.

Just when she was watching with great interest, she was informed by the Zhongchang attendant. Yingshu had to return to the main hall, bowed and called "Abo". At this time, she seemed to be very well-behaved, hiding her sharp claws and fangs. It's as docile as a civet cat that hasn't been weaned yet.

"Why did you say nothing when it was time to speak?" Sikong Tong couldn't help but snorted.

"I don't know what to say."

The emperor didn't know what to say. He stared for a while and felt a little guilty. He asked in a deep voice, "Do you blame the queen?"

"First, Liu Cairen wanted to kill me. My belief had nothing to do with Her Majesty the Queen. This time, I really can't convince myself that it was those two people who made the decision on their own. Her Majesty the Queen was indeed very interested in taking my life. I shouldn’t complain, I should be proud.”

The emperor was so choked that he almost coughed out. After a long time, he said: "How do you want me to deal with the queen?"

"I dare not."

The emperor called himself "I", and Ying Shu called herself "slave". As a mere female official, she certainly did not dare to comment on how the emperor dealt with the queen.

The emperor was really at his wits' end and waved his hand to compromise: "That's all, I won't argue with you, a junior like you. Emperor Xiu, please sit down and take a good seat. I heard that you were wronged in the palace. Your father even gave me the gift he gave me many years ago." I have asked for every calligraphy and painting I have done. This is to break off the relationship with my brother. If you show such a great gift and have a bruise on your forehead as big as a nail cap, I am afraid that your father will have to resign the next day. "

Yingshu originally thought that her father just had an official title, so it didn't matter whether he resigned or not. But she kept saying these angry words and thought that she was very childish, so she sighed longly: " Uncle is the king, and I don’t dare to deceive him. I really don’t understand why the queen insists on having trouble with me, but who makes her the queen? If I am really killed by her, uncle will not forgive me lightly, but I am unscathed now, and of course Uncle will not pursue the case. I understand that the confessions of the two palace maids are far from enough to accuse a country. Even if Uncle just asks, it will make His Highness the Crown Prince worried."

The emperor felt uncomfortable when he was contradicted by the needle hidden in Yingshu's cotton. Now he heard these "reasonable" sighs, and the emperor felt even worse. The king of a country scratched his forehead anxiously, and then said: " If I find an opportunity, I will also beat the queen."

"I think that although I don't want to delve into this matter, I can no longer indulge the Queen in cultivating 'shady people'. If I hadn't been alert this time and replaced her with someone who was less resourceful, a few lives would have been lost!"

The emperor frowned habitually.

"Actually speaking, even if Abo accuses the queen or even deposes the queen, he can't fundamentally cut off the evil deeds in the inner court. The reason why people are willing to dagger for others is only for profit or because of threats. Only if the palace rules are really strictly enforced, all the palace residents will understand that killing people for personal gain will lead to death, and no matter who is coerced by anyone, there will be formal channels to report, whether it is reporting or leaving the capital, they will not be unjustly harmed. Even if the other party is as noble as a queen, as long as the reason is disclosed before committing the crime, he will be protected by the palace rules and national laws. The palace people do not dare to kill for personal harm, and are not afraid of the threats and intimidation of the nobles. Only then can the secrets in the inner court be reduced. evil deeds and eliminate many hidden dangers.”

"Girl, that's easy to say." The emperor smiled bitterly.

"Change should start from Qianyuan Hall."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but stretched out his finger, and poked Yingshu's forehead from a distance: "I know you have a character that doesn't want to suffer. Okay, let's not talk about anything else. I just want to ask you, how do you plan to end it? ?”

"Actually, it was just a show for Mrs. He. Mrs. He knew in her heart that Abo had understood the truth, so she pardoned Lady Shi and let the matter of the fifth princess's death go unsolved. But what Mrs. He didn't know was that Abe had already understood the truth. Empress Shi's only concern is now known. Although Mrs. He doesn't know the details of today's turmoil, she should understand that it is Her Highness the Queen's conspiracy. Uncle still refuses to pursue it. How can Empress Shi be willing to do so?

Therefore, Abo should completely acquit Lady Shi and declare to the inner court that although the five princesses were killed by Lady Shi herself, Lady Shi was poisoned and lost her mind, and the poisoners were Lily and Xiuwei. As for this The two palace maids committed suicide in fear of guilt without being fully investigated as to who was instigating them. "

Ying Shu only proposed a general strategy.

"Then you have become the target of public criticism again." His Majesty the Emperor looked at the little girl who was as alert and cunning as a newborn calf.

Yingshu smiled and raised the corners of her lips: "I'm not afraid of being the target of public criticism. The rake is set up in the open, and the crossbowman who wants to shoot through the rake must also stand in the clear. But my enemies seem to be very cunning and always want to I just want to take advantage of others, and I don’t want to stand in front of everyone and shoot arrows, and what I’m best at is avoiding hidden arrows.”

This is not Yingshu's boasting. For example, when she meets a tough bandit like Tian Shishe, her head will be gone if he cuts it off with a sword. No matter how clever she is, she can't escape death, but if the enemy can't To drive the bright bandits, they always want to escape unscathed, so they can only use hidden arrows. As long as her protective armor is strong enough, she is not afraid of sneak attacks by hidden arrows, and I believe there will not be many people who can break through her protective armor.

Just one.

Yingshu can be sure that that person is definitely not a woman from the inner court. That person has the courage to use hidden arrows as open guns. If that person wants to kill her, she must first convince Tian Shishe, who has no grievances against her, to die with her, or even Tian Shishe must be willing to bury his family, parents, wives and children with him!

And what kind of opponents are Queen Yu and Mrs. He? They may be cruel enough in heart, but their methods are far from tough enough. They have too many worries. The most important thing is that they do not have such great personality charm at all that they can drive people like Tian Shishe to work for them through life and death.
