Reborn as King again

After hearing what Zhou Ling said, the queen mother immediately questioned Taoqing: "Taoqing, you are Concubine Wan's personal maid. You have served her for more than ten years. You know her whereabouts best. Tell the Ai family whether what the queen said is true. ? Is there any relationship between Concubine Wan and King Rui?"

Tao Qing secretly glanced at Jia Wanru, she nodded apologetically, "It's true."

"Tao Qing?!" Jia Wanru never expected that her confidant would betray herself.It was only then that she remembered that it was no wonder that Taoqing had disappeared recently. It turned out that she was arrested by Zhou Ling.

The corners of Zhou Ling's mouth turned up slightly. He knew that Jia Wanru was done. As long as Jia Wanru had an affair with King Rui and raised the question of Li Yi's life experience, it would be better to make matters worse. .

"Taoqing," Zhou Ling said, "tell what you know, and if you hide anything, you will be punished severely!"

"Yes, yes, I will tell you the truth." Tao Qing trembled for a while, as if she was frightened by Zhou Ling's words, she only heard her reply in anticipation of Ai Ai: "Your servant... I can prove that Concubine Wan and King Rui are indeed There is an affair, their relationship has never been broken in the past ten years, every time... every time King Rui returns to the capital, Concubine Wan will... always ask for an order to go back to the mansion for a short stay, in fact, it is to meet King Rui privately."

Zhou Ling further asked: "Is that because Concubine Wan became pregnant shortly after returning to the palace after a private meeting with King Rui? Including when she was pregnant with the second princess and the crown prince?"

"Yes." Tao Qing nodded.

"..." At this moment, Jia Wanru's mind was blank, and her body softened. Taoqing's testimony is indeed the most favorable evidence!

Seeing Jia Wanru's behavior, Zhou Ling knew that victory was in sight, "Taoqing, then explain in detail, and tell the emperor and the queen mother verbatim."

"Yes," Tao Qing said, subconsciously glanced at me, and then said: "Every time Concubine Wan returns to the mansion for a short stay, the servants and servants follow her. I got pregnant not long ago, including this time..."

Tao Qing's words caused a commotion from all the concubines present, their eyes widened in surprise, they couldn't believe that Jia Wanru, who is the most favored in the harem, actually had an affair with King Rui? !This is too bold.

In fact, there is a huge loophole in Taoqing's words, Jia Wanru is so upset that she can't even notice it now.It was the queen mother, she heard something was wrong in the words, she hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Taoqing, did you also go with Concubine Wan when she went back to the residence for a short stay before she became pregnant with the crown prince?"

Tao Qing nodded, and said with certainty: "Yes, every time the servants go back with Concubine Wan."

"You are simply nonsense!" The queen mother roared loudly, maybe because she was too emotional, which made her heart ache even more.

Seeing that the situation was not good, I didn't care about Jia Wanru in my arms, so I quickly stepped forward to support the queen mother, poured a cup of tea from the table next to her for her to drink, and let her drink smoothly.

After a while, the queen mother calmed down, she looked at me, pointed at Taoqing and asked: "I remember, when Yi'er was born, this palace lady named Taoqing hadn't entered the palace yet, and this palace lady was full of mouth. lie."

That's right, the queen mother realized the loophole in Taoqing's words.Tao Qing said just now that every time she followed Jia Wanru to private meetings with King Rui, she testified that Li Yi was born after Jia Wanru had an affair with King Rui, but in fact, Tao Qing was not in the palace at all when Li Yi was born!

After Zhou Ling caught Taoqing, in order to get her to speak, he must have tortured her to extract a confession, so I asked Taoqing to pretend that the torture was unbearable, and told Zhou Ling everything about Jia Wanru, and deliberately told Zhou Ling that she It can be proved that Prince Li Yi was born to King Rui and Jia Wanru.When Zhou Ling entered the palace, Tao Qing had been serving Jia Wanru for several years, so she had no doubts at all.

The queen mother's words awakened Jia Wanru, and she realized that even if what Taoqing said was true, but the time was not right, it was nothing to worry about.Jia Wanru has been rolling around in the harem for so many years, of course she knows when to react, she suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Tao Qing's sleeve, crying and said: "Tao Qing! You have followed Ben Gong since you were 12 years old, Ben Gong Zi asked you well, you...why did you frame me..."

"I...I..." Taoqing blamed herself, and finally burst into tears, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry, Concubine Wan, and the slaves don't want to, but... but the empress... it was the empress who forced me Yes!" Tao Qing said, stretched out her hand, and pulled her sleeves away, her fingers were purple and red, and her arms were full of needle holes, she was telling everyone that Zhou Ling tortured her , she couldn't stand the torture.

Seeing this, Jia Wanru was heartbroken. She turned around and glared at Zhou Ling and said, "Empress! Taoqing has been with me since she was a child, and even I couldn't bear to punish her. How dare you treat her like this?! You are so ruthless!"

At this time, Zhou Ling became speechless. He didn't expect things to turn out like this. Everything was going well, and the most important witness was Tao Qing, but he didn't expect Tao Qing's testimony to be incomplete. Unreliable, but let yourself get a reputation for using torture.

In fact, the interrogation of any prisoner should not be punished, as long as the confession is fine, but the problem is that the confession is retracted after the other party confesses, which obviously becomes the use of power for personal gain, and torture into tricks.

Jia Wanru saw her remorse in Taoqing's eyes, she thought that Taoqing was just confused for a while, and it was only natural that she couldn't bear it because she was tortured suddenly.

Now Jia Wanru has no other choice but to give it a go and trust Taoqing again.

Jia Wanru stood up, she looked at me obsessively, her eyes were tender but filled with humiliation, and tears welled up in her eyes, "I have never done anything wrong to you, my heart for you has never changed! Now If you are suspected, you can only prove your will with death!"

As she spoke, she slammed headfirst into the red pillars in the main hall, all the eunuchs present were stunned, no one expected Jia Wanru to do this!

Only Taoqing, Taoqing knew, because the moment Jia Wanru slammed into the pillar, she inadvertently aimed at herself, Taoqing seized the opportunity, and immediately stepped forward to stop her, "Ms. Wanfei!"

People have to be stopped, but they also have to bump into the pillars, otherwise how can this bitter plan be played? !So it turned out that Tao Qing was a little late. Even though she grabbed Jia Wanru's sleeve, Jia Wanru still bumped her head against the pillar, bleeding from her forehead, and passed out.

I planned to put some pressure on Zhou Ling after Taoqing's testimony was overthrown in the name of abusing uterine punishment. The one who forced her to death, Jia Wanru's move was really good, she directly became the victim, and pushed Zhou Ling to the cusp of the storm.

"Concubine Wan!" I exclaimed and stepped forward to hug her.

I glared at Zhou Ling, and said viciously: "Are you satisfied?! If something happens to Concubine Wan, I will never forgive you!"

"Prince..." The queen mother was also shocked by the scene in front of her. She didn't expect Jia Wanru's temper to be so strong, she would even give up her life to show her innocence.

"Mother, I will take my leave first, and I hope you can forgive me." Immediately afterwards, I picked up Jia Wanru, turned around and left, not willing to stay here for a moment, and walked out of the main hall, I told Wanfu: "Go and call Yu Doctor, I will never let something happen to Concubine Wan!"

I carried Jia Wanru on the imperial chariot and rushed towards Baoge Palace. When I arrived at Baoge Palace, the imperial doctor was already waiting there.They checked Jia Wanru's injuries and bandaged the wound on her forehead.

The imperial doctor withdrew from the screen, and I hurried forward and asked, "Is Concubine Wan all right? Is her life in danger? Has the child been saved?"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured," the imperial doctor replied to my questions one by one: "Concubine Wan only suffered skin trauma, and she is now awake. The child is safe and there is no serious problem."

"That's good." Knowing that Jia Wanru woke up, I couldn't wait to rush into the bedroom and come to her bedside.

At this time, Jia Wanru was wearing a white bandage on her forehead, and her lips were pale and bloodless. When she saw me coming, she sat up with support, pulled my sleeve, and cried, "Why do you want to save my concubine? Why don't you let me go?" The concubine is dead!"

"Concubine Wan..." I put my arms around her and said distressedly, "Don't be like this, I love you so much, how could I not believe you? Stop doing stupid things."

Jia Wanru choked and said, "Chenqie's nanny, Chenqie, hasn't seen her for more than ten years. Now that she has appeared so suddenly, she insists that Chenqie has an affair with King Rui. She must be resentful of being kicked out of Jia's house before." thing, she framed the concubine..."

"When King Rui returned to Beijing, the concubine happened to go back to the mansion for a short stay. These are all coincidences. Your majesty, the concubine and King Rui are just acquaintances. The empress, she... She actually beat Taoqing into a trick, insisting on saying that the minister My concubine has an affair with King Rui..."

"The empress does so much because she doesn't like Yi'er, because Yi'er is the son of a concubine and the prince, so she doesn't get close to the empress. But he...but he can't frame Yi'er like this Ah, to say that Yi'er is the child of King Rui?! Didn't he do this just to force his concubine and the prince into a corner?!"

What Jia Wanru said made sense. She is now sick and weak, and people feel sorry for her. I couldn't help being moved, and hugged her in my arms, "Stop talking, Concubine Wan, I believe in you. I believe you all, I believe you have nothing to do with King Rui, don't think about it any more."

Jia Wanru cried very sadly, as if she was really wronged.I coaxed her for a long time and kept telling her that I believed in her and made her feel at ease.I didn't leave the bedroom slowly until she was tired from crying and fell asleep.

At the door of the dormitory, Li Yi had already stood by the door with a livid face. When he saw me, his eyes were red, and he was afraid that he had already heard about what happened in the Palace of Compassion.I could see that Li Yi wanted to come forward to pay his respects, but he was afraid that I would really have doubts about his life experience, so he wavered there.

I showed a reassuring smile to Li Yi, "Yi'er, are you here to see Concubine Wan? She just fell asleep, come back next time, don't disturb her rest."

"Father..." Li Yi opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything after all, but tears flowed down.

I walked over to Li Yi, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It is said that men do not shed tears lightly. You are my son, and you will inherit the throne in the future. It is not good to cry so much."

When I said this, it represented my position. I made it clear to Li Yi that no matter what outsiders say, I always believe that he is my son.

At this time, Li Yi must have mixed feelings in his heart, and he must be very moved.Royal father trusts him so much, loves him so much, even if that King Rui is really his biological father, it is nothing.

The author has something to say: Thank you for pointing out that there was a big bug in the last chapter. In fact, Xiaoyu did not forget the stalker about the emperor and concubine Wan.Originally, in Xiaoyu's main story line, there would still be some sexy things happening, but during the jj river crab period, Xiaoyu cut off that stalk, (the scumbag emperor walked behind, and even put medicine on Concubine Wan, this is Foreshadowing, but the crackdown is useless) The stalk is roughly that Concubine Wan is confused and can't tell the difference →_→, so the scumbag emperor is very sure that the child is not his.

Dear friends, just be Concubine Wan, so when you can't tell the front and back [shooting]

PS: About when Taoqing entered the palace in this chapter, it is explained in Chapter 20.
