After rebirth, I made the princes cry

Chapter 270 Zheng Guiren is about to be completely defeated?

Mrs. Xie didn't need to check who was the female deacon of the Regulations and Supervision Department, Zeng. She knew that Zeng had always been secretly cultivated by Changfeng Palace. In the past, she didn't particularly care which concubine the palace servants in each department took orders from. , because this is impossible to guard against. No one who manages the harem can prevent so many palace servants and eunuchs from being bribed by other concubines. Compared with Guanglu Temple and Imperial Hospital, the palace servants in other departments, Even though they have certain powers, they cannot directly threaten the life and death of the upper temple.

After many years in the inner court, Madam Xie kept her most trusted palace officials in the Zhaoyang Palace to prevent rivals' eyes and ears from infiltrating her side. And because she had always assisted the queen in managing the harem, she had too many advantages, so she paid special attention to them. The person was actually Zheng Guiren. She knew that even if Zheng Guiren could infiltrate many offices under the control of Guanglu Temple, he would never be able to instruct those palace officials to poison themselves.

If Zijiang really poisoned her medicinal diet, the person who could direct Zijiang must be the emperor.

"Mr. He, do you know why I even approved the report from the head of the Professional Qualification Department and allowed you to take charge of the Food and Drug Administration even though I knew you and Mrs. Zeng were close?" Mrs. Xie asked.

Mr. He is now just sad and crying.

"As you just said, you have been working in the Food and Drug Administration for many years and have never violated any rules or regulations. After inspection, you are from a good family. Over the years, your family members have not committed adultery or sought asylum for evading taxes. You are a member of the family, and your family has never received any unclear property. The position of head of the Food and Drug Administration is vacant, and you have the conditions for promotion."

"The servant's crime deserves death."

"I have heard about the palace maid who is in charge of the private parts. Zi Tai has committed the death penalty of fornication. Although there are foul rules, it is not a capital crime." Mrs. Xie seemed to have completely calmed down: "But you know that there are criminals who want to Zi Tai was killed by your own hands, but because you wanted to gain power, you first ignored the murders of Bai and Luo, and were willing to be others' daggers and weapons. Do you still insist that you don't know who is behind Zeng? Who is instructing?"

"Yes, yes, the servant actually knows that Zeng Nuzhi has been under the protection of Mr. Zheng."

Mrs. Xie stopped paying attention to Mr. He and looked at Zi Jiang.

Zijiang still stretched his neck: "Yes, I understand now. It was Zheng Guiren who used He's hand to kill Zi Tai. I will not protect Zheng Guiren, the murderer, but Zheng Guiren did not instigate me to go out and instigate me." The person who took the lead is indeed Concubine Qiao’s concubine Fu, who asked the servant to tell the truth to Madam.”

"There is something very interesting." Mrs. Xie interrupted Zi Jiang: "If Zheng Guiren wants to devise this conspiracy, she must know that you poisoned my medicinal diet, and you said that you were not ordered by her at all, then How did she know about this top-secret conspiracy?"

"My servant doesn't know."

"You have never revealed this matter to anyone, like Zi Tai?"

"Your servant knows that this matter is of great importance, how dare you leak it?"

"Just now He said that she guessed that Zheng Guiren planned this conspiracy. Then Zheng Guiren must know that you are the poisoner. She killed Bai and Luo in order to let He get the position of head of the Food and Drug Administration. Only then can she To use He's hand to execute Zi Tai, Guiren Zheng must also know that you will desperately avenge Zi Tai after her death, but if you are His Majesty's confidant, why don't you directly ask His Majesty to make the decision to put He to death?"

"I admit that I do not directly obey His Majesty, but the Queen... The Queen is now imprisoned in Xianyang Palace, and I have no choice but to go..."

"Ms. He never expected that you would risk your own life because of Yin Tai's death, otherwise she wouldn't have stepped into Zheng Guiren's trap. Zi Jiang, in fact, I believe you are a person of temperament. I can promise you that you will Execute He."

As soon as He heard this, she suddenly raised her head from the ground: "Madam, please spare my life, Madam, spare your life..."

But Mrs. Xie didn't even look at Mr. He: "There is no deep hatred between the palace maids. Even if they are competing for interests, those who have a little conscience will not kill someone who has been with them day and night, or even shared the joys and sorrows for many years. I In fact, I know that the friendship between many palace maids is deeper than brotherhood, so I can understand why after Zi Tai was executed, Zi Jiang, you wanted to avenge her at all costs.

But before you did this, I didn’t even know that you had personally helped me survive the medicinal diet. I don’t know your character, but I have seen a lot of heartless people like Mr. He. It’s impossible for me to believe that you will. Follow my instigation, risk your life, and be willing to be used by me.

Do you understand? Zheng Guiren's scheming is deeper than mine. If she wasn't sure of your character, she wouldn't have such a plan. "

Yingshu also thought of this key point.

Indeed, in order for Zheng Guiren to realize her plan, several prerequisites must be met. The most important thing is that the friendship between Zijiang and Zimo must be as deep as an acquaintance. Therefore, Zijiang and Zimo are familiar with each other in the Food and Drug Administration. Among the people there must be Zheng Guiren's ears and eyes.

Ying Shu caught the subtle changes in Zi Jiang's expression.

She was about to ask more questions, but His Majesty the Emperor arrived at this moment.

Mrs. Xie stretched out her hand lazily. Yingshu understood and stepped forward to help Mrs. Xie to make way for her seat as if she was relieved. She knelt on the bench on the right side. As soon as she knelt down, the door of Nuan Pavilion opened, and Zhang Yong, the official of Zhongchang, only showed his face. Face, Yingshu saw beads of sweat on his forehead, but His Majesty's uncle looked "relaxed". This really means that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is.

"It's really unexpected that Your Majesty came so quickly." Although Mrs. Xie followed the etiquette of picking up the driver, her words were somewhat sarcastic.

Sikong Tong could only accompany him carefully at this time: "Emperor Xiu just sent someone to inform me that there was something going on in Changfeng Palace. I was thinking that if it was not an emergency, how could she know that I was discussing politics with all the ministers in the previous dynasty? Are you going to get angry and retaliate? It just so happens that the ministers and ministers are quarreling fiercely. There will be no division today, so I will take the opportunity to escape.

Just now outside the Nuan Pavilion, Concubine Jian briefly talked about what happened. Which bold palace maid dared to slander me? "

Mrs. Xie smiled slightly: "I have understood the whole story. Everything is just as Emperor Xiu expected. It is indeed a conspiracy planned by Guiren Zheng. However, she is also ridiculous. She thought that I would believe the words of a mere palace maid and hate Your Majesty. In fact, I have The poison of annihilating the heir is too easy to verify. As long as Your Majesty allows me to find a doctor to come into the palace to diagnose my pulse, the truth will be revealed."

"Exactly, Madam can call the doctor to the palace at any time."

"No need." Mrs. Xie said: "If I call the sick doctor into the palace, wouldn't it appear that I am really suspicious of Your Majesty? There was just something that happened just now, and your sinful servant Jiang has not had time to respond. Your Majesty should also listen to it?"

Yingshu felt that His Majesty the Emperor actually came at the wrong time.

But the matter has come to this, and we have no choice but to let it develop.

Concubine Qiao is still kneeling in the Nuan Pavilion. She does not have Ying Shu's sharp eyesight. At this time, she hurriedly said: "Actually, Madam has just asked about something fishy. The guilty servant Jiang is clearly instigated by Mr. Zheng, and Mr. Zheng knows his son clearly." Jiang and Zi Tai had a life-or-death friendship, so they secretly plotted to use He's place to kill Zi Tai, and then instigated Zi Jiang to slander His Majesty in an attempt to alienate him."

Sikong Tong actually didn't know who Mr. He and Zi Tai were, but he knew that Concubine Qiao was closely related to today's turmoil. He said calmly, "Don't talk too much."

Zijiang obviously made a decision at this time.

"The person who directly ordered the slave to poison Madam's medicinal diet was indeed the Queen, but if the Queen hadn't claimed that she had your majesty's tacit approval, how could the slave dare to act only on the Queen's order? At that time, Luo Nvzhi also knew about this, and it was precisely because of Luo Nvzhi Only by keeping a close eye can the slaves make sure that the poison handed over by the queen is lost in the medicinal diet without being discovered by other maids.

Later, Zi Tai and the kitchen waiter... fell in love. The slave girl tried to persuade Zi Tai, but Zi Tai did not listen to the slave girl's advice. The slave girl was worried that the affair between Zi Tai and the kitchen waiter would be discovered and lead to death, so she had to take the place of the two of them. However, as time went by, clues about the matter still emerged. Luo Nvzhi wanted to pursue it. It was the slave who threatened Luo Nvzhi to agree to accommodation. Luo Nvzhi must have known that the slave dared to protect Zi Tai and also asked for the secret order. The acquaintance between Jin Lan and Zi Tai is by no means hypocritical.

Zheng Guiren probably learned about this secret from the mouth of Luo Nuzhu, and then planned today's plan. The slave knew that he would not be lucky and would definitely die. Moreover, Madam Xie had already agreed to the slave's execution of the He family, so the slave had nothing more to ask for. , every word of my current confession is true and not a single falsehood. "

Mrs. Xie looked sideways at the emperor.

"When did the Queen order you to poison me?" Sikong Tong had no choice but to ask.

"This slave has not been in the palace for a long time and has just been selected into the medicinal kitchen room."

"Is the palace maid who was just selected into the medicinal food room responsible for cooking Zhaoyang Palace's medicinal food?"

Zijiang:......

Only then did Mrs. Xie retract her gaze: "That's all, this culprit changed her confession several times, and the more she said, the more flaws she revealed. And now the Luo Nuzhi she told was killed in the Hospice by Zheng Guiren. There is no proof. Your Majesty also No need to ask any more questions. I think what Concubine Qiao just inferred is correct. The sin maid Zi Jiang and the palace maid sister Tai were deeply in love. After Zi Tai died, she hated the He family to the bone. Zheng Guiren then sent someone to She instigated her to slander His Majesty and the Queen, and even tried to alienate the friendship between Chenjun Xie and the Prince of Linyi. The crime committed by maid Jiang is unforgivable and should be punished by Your Majesty."

Sikong Tong summoned Zhang Yong, and Zijiang was taken out of Nuange first.

Mrs. Xie said again: "Ah Qiao, I don't doubt that you have ill intentions towards me, but the fact that you were almost taken advantage of by Mr. Zheng is also caused by your soft ears. I will not take over the personnel affairs of your Yuyin Pavilion. You can do it yourself." Just be careful, I originally wanted to have you and A-Jian have dinner together today, but after this incident, we lost interest, so we'd better get together another day."

Concubine Qiao no longer had any discernment, and now she knew it was time to leave, but Mrs. Xie did not let Yingshu go, and actually asked her in front of her: "Your Majesty will not ignore Mr. Zheng's crime of slandering His Majesty, right? "

Sikong Tong clenched his fist and coughed, glaring at Ying Shu: "Why are you still standing here?"

Yingshu was sitting on pins and needles. After hearing the words, she ran out unruly and carefully closed the door of Nuan Pavilion. She turned around and saw Jian Bin smiling at her, so she stepped forward and saluted: "What a wonderful day today." Thank you, empress.”

"I heard that Wu Niang has a maid who is very good at making wine?"

"Have you heard of it, too?"

"I heard it from Madam. During the Autumn Hunting Ceremony, Wu Niang paid filial piety to Madam with two jars of wine brewed by her own maid. Madam mentioned it to me when she returned to the palace and was full of praise. I also like to make wine by myself when I have nothing to do. Listen Madam praised the craftsmanship of Wu Niang's maid, which made me a little competitive. However, I know that Wu Niang cannot bring wine from outside the palace into the palace. However, if it is convenient for Wu Niang, she can have the wine delivered. In the Shinsu Mansion, I will ask Shiro to bring the wine in for me to taste."

While they were talking, Concubine Jian and Ying Shu had already left the Zhaoyang Palace. Concubine Jian saw that Concubine Qiao was still outside the palace. Knowing that she and Ying Shu still had something to say, Concubine Jian got on her shoulder.

"Are you really greedy for the wine from the Queen's Empress?" Ming Nuyi asked with a smile.

"That's a very spiritual child." Concubine Jian looked at the long corridor in front of her that went back and forth countless times without saying anything more.

The difficulty in today's accident is not to reveal the truth, but to continue the lie. Your Majesty has failed his wife, but these two are respected elders of Ying Shu. Originally, the child was caught in the gap. To calm down a storm, But it is inevitable that she will feel guilty and jealous of the elders of the other side. The most "shocking" thing is that there is also Qiao Concubine in the mess. However, Yingshu's love for any side is shallow, and she cannot be comprehensive today. .

Spirituality comes from true feelings.

She was really envious of Concubine Qiao. She didn't know how many lifetimes of blessings she had accumulated to have such a future daughter-in-law, but she couldn't help but have desires in her heart. What if things went against her predictions and the overall situation changed, making everyone... Is there a new opportunity for people's marriage?

However, Concubine Qiao does not feel that she is a blessed person.

She waited for Yingshu, but she just said a few more words, and repeatedly emphasized that she was anxious that Chen Jun Xie Hui would lose power, so she fell into Zheng Guiren's scheme. Her original intention was for Mrs. Xie's good, and she was only worried about Yingshu Hui. He took the opportunity to slander her in front of Mrs. Xie, and even worried that Mrs. Xie would misunderstand Nanci.

Yingshu patiently listened to Qiao Bin's words and escaped with "spirituality".

If Ying Shu didn't say anything, Qiao Bi wouldn't think too much about it.

In the Yuyin Pavilion, Mrs. Fu was still waiting for the "good news" to be sent back. When she saw Concubine Qiao smiling happily, Mrs. Fu said that her treacherous plot had succeeded, and hurriedly stepped forward: "My servant just saw Wang's daughter acting so presumptuously, and she was really anxious. , but she claimed that she was following the holy order, and the servant did not dare to step forward to stop her. However, the servant thought carefully just now, even if your Majesty ordered the empress to keep silent, she could not cover Zijiang's mouth. After Mrs. Xie heard the truth, she would never do it again. I listened to Wang’s daughter’s sophistry.”

"Let me ask you, did you tell that Zi Jiang to make her anger Madam Xie and encourage Madam Xie to go to Qianyang Palace to question His Majesty?"

Mrs. Fu subconsciously wanted to nod, but suddenly came to her senses: "How could it be a slave? I just followed Luo Cairen to see Zi Jiang. I have no idea what Luo Cairen said to Zi Jiang."

Concubine Qiao already knew in her heart that there was a traitor around her, but she just ignored it at this time: "It's really dangerous this time! Thanks to me, I realized that something was wrong, otherwise our Yuyin Palace would have fallen into the hands of Guiren Zheng for no reason. The sword and dagger! Fortunately, His Majesty had foreseen it and exposed Guiren Zheng’s trick. Huh, Changfeng Palace’s traps have been exhausted, but this time it’s just shooting the stone in the foot.”

Concubine Qiao admired Mrs. Fu's forced smile, showing physical and mental pleasure: "I only found out today that it turned out that Jiang Donghe was the instigator of Duke Chen's impeachment, and Changping Zheng also played a lot of role secretly. , but Zheng Guiren is so smart this time that he dares to commit the serious crime of slandering His Majesty. His Majesty will definitely punish him severely, and the Xie family of Chen County will definitely not let Zheng Changping go. Lord Jiaosu will never be able to compete for the throne again. With Guiren Zheng’s methods, I can’t even hope to defeat Madam Xie.”
