Reborn as King again

Chapter 50 Confrontation

Xinyue told me that Jia Wanru went to He Wenliu for help, which made me murmur in my heart. Although they are both my favorite concubines, let alone visiting each other, there is not even a dispute, and they are simply living their own lives.He Wenliu can always ignore disputes in the harem, can Jia Wanru please him?

I asked, "What's going on? Explain it to me."

Xinyue replied: "This afternoon, Concubine Wan brought the prince to Qingluan Hall. Their spirits were very bad. When they saw Concubine Wen, they knelt down. They wanted Concubine Wen to do me a favor by being a witness. Prince Ming did not deliberately push Concubine Su down the stairs."

I was puzzled after hearing this, "How can Concubine Wen prove it? Did he see it?"

Xinyue nodded, and said with certainty: "I really saw it." Then Xinyue told me what she knew: "On the day when Concubine Su had a miscarriage, Concubine Wen saw that the weather was fine, so she brought her Walking in the imperial garden with the two nurses holding the Fifth Princess and the Sixth Prince in their arms, they happened to see Concubine Su rolling down the stairs. You also know that Concubine Wen was unwilling to participate in these matters. Many inner eunuchs took care of her, so she left quickly." Xinyue paused and said: "The concubine Wen took two wet nurses out that day, but the slaves didn't follow, so today the concubine Wan came, and the slaves knew Concubine Wen is an eyewitness, otherwise the servants would have come to tell the emperor long ago."

I nodded to show that I understood, and asked, "Did Concubine Wen agree to help Concubine Wan?" I told him before that I would let him stay out of troubled waters and leave other people's affairs alone. The guards gave him advice.Then Xia Zhisu made it clear this time that he wanted to pull Jia Wanru off the horse. He Wenliu wouldn't be so stupid as to jump off the horse himself, wouldn't he agree?

Xinyue looked at me in fear, nodded her head in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Concubine Wen promised to help Concubine Wan."

"What?" I was stunned for a moment, and then asked Xinyue: "Why did you all go? Just watched Concubine Wen promise not to mention it?"

Seeing that I was angry, Xinyue immediately knelt on the ground and explained: "We winked at Concubine Wen, which made my eyes sore. Concubine Wen didn't want to agree, but seeing Concubine Wan kneeling all the time, the little prince was still crying. It's so pitiful, Concubine Wen couldn't bear it anymore. Your Majesty, it's not like you don't know Concubine Wen's temper, she's so soft-hearted, so you just agree."

At this moment, I really want to rush into Qingluan Hall, press He Wenliu on the bed, and give him a hard meal. Why is he so disobedient?I tried my best to calm myself down, and said: "I don't blame you for this, I know, you go down first."

After Xinyue left, Wanfu came in again, and he told me that when I saw Xinyue just now, Taoqing had come.Taoqing was also there on the day Xia Zhisu rolled down the stairs. She never had a chance to tell me what happened that day. It was not until midnight tonight when everyone fell asleep that she sneaked out and went to Qianlong Palace to find Wanfu. Tell the truth what she knows.

After listening to Wanfu's narration, I realized that this time Jia Wanru wanted to use He Wenliu to remove the suspicion.The nanny next to He Wenliu was Jia Wanru's eyeliner. The nanny knew that He Wenliu was going to take Yun'er Jier to visit the Imperial Garden that day, so she reported to Jia Wanru in advance, and Xia Zhisu would go to pay her respects to the queen mother every day. When you go to the Palace of Compassion, you will definitely pass the promenade of the Royal Garden, so Jia Wanru took Li Yi to calculate the time to "encounter" Xia Zhisu in front of the hundred steps next to the promenade, and then deliberately chatted with Xia Zhisu for a few minutes Sentence, until He Wenliu appeared in sight with the child and the nanny.In the eyes of everyone, Li Yi seems to like to see his younger siblings, so when he saw He Wenliu holding Yun'er and Ji'er not far from the hundred steps, he was very happy to run down the stairs to find Ji'er and the others to play , when he passed by Xia Zhisu, he "accidentally" bumped into Xia Zhisu. Because there was no one to support him, Xia Zhisu couldn't stand firmly on the soles of his feet, so he rolled down the stairs directly.At that time, He Wenliu was also startled when he saw Xia Zhisu rolling down, but when he saw that someone was taking care of him, he told Jia Wanru and left. The situation was chaotic at that time. It is estimated that few people noticed that He Wenliu had appeared. Pass.

According to my understanding of He Wenliu's elm head, He Wenliu must have thought that Li Yi was overjoyed to see him with a child, and when he ran towards him, he accidentally bumped into Xia Zhisu, causing Xia Zhisu to stop He just fell down, in his heart, Li Yi was just a child, he had no scheming at all, and he would never have thought that Li Yi would follow Jia Wanru's hint and deliberately bump into Xia Zhisu.And he would just feel that he just "just happened" to be a witness.

I stood up and sighed, feeling quite complicated. Although I was very angry that Jia Wanru put eyeliner next to He Wenliu and used He Wenliu, I was looking forward to tomorrow, because tomorrow's confrontation will definitely be very exciting, and after tomorrow Xia Zhisu's life in the harem must have been difficult.

On the second day, after I finished the morning court, I went to the Compassion Palace as planned to watch a good show.When I walked into the gate of the main hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace, I saw Jia Wanru holding Li Yi's hand and standing in the center of the hall, Xia Zhisu was also standing there, and the other concubines were standing on both sides according to their rank. They all looked gloating, I feel that Jia Wanru's good days are coming to an end today.The queen mother sat on the main seat as usual, and I greeted the queen mother and sat beside her.

I glanced down and saw He Wenliu. He was wearing a blue gown and skirt today. He didn't look very eye-catching. He didn't notice that I was looking at him. He kept looking at Jia Wanru and Li Yi, his face full pity.

When I sat down firmly, all the concubines in the hall greeted me in unison. Xia Zhisu's complexion improved a lot. It must be that he has been better in bed in recent days, but Jia Wanru is just the opposite, frowning of.

I said, "How is Concubine Su's health recently?"

"Thank you for the emperor's kindness, my concubine is much better now." Xia Zhisu replied with a smile, then he glanced at Jia Wanru and said: "The concubine heard from my mother that you will avenge our child today."

Whoops, Xia Zhisu misinterpreted my meaning there, I obviously only said "confrontation", but it became "revenge" in her mouth?

I smiled and said, "Concubine Su, don't say that, is there any misunderstanding?"

"There is no misunderstanding!" Xia Zhisu said with certainty: "It was really the prince who pushed the concubine down the steps," Xia Zhisu's eyes began to turn red as he spoke, "Your Majesty, our children are all six months old. Well, it's still a boy, if it wasn't for the crown prince..."

The queen mother felt distressed when she looked at me, she grabbed my hand and said: "Huanger, you can make up your mind for Su'er." I patted the back of the mother's hand, but said: "My queen, Yi'er is so young, there is nothing wrong with it." What kind of strength? How did you push Su'er down? Could Su'er have read it wrong?"

Xia Zhisu knew that I loved Li Yi, otherwise she would not have made Li Yi the crown prince, but she didn't expect that I would be so blatantly partial to him, so she naturally felt uncomfortable, so she simply said in another way: "At that time, I left Li Yi on the corridor. The closest concubines are the Crown Prince and Concubine Wan, Your Majesty, if the concubine is not pushed by the Crown Prince, then Concubine Wan?" Xia Zhisu pointed directly at Jia Wanru, and spoke to me in a very bad tone, It's like asking guilt.

"Presumptuous! How dare you speak to me in such a tone?" As soon as Xia Zhisu said this, I immediately became angry. She is like her sister, why can't she speak so much? Even if you complain and complain, you should speak more tactfully and nicely.

Xia Zhisu was stunned when I yelled at her like this. I was so gentle, considerate and considerate in front of her before, and I never made a face with her, but now I actually yelled at her because of Jia Wanru?Xia Zhisu felt so wronged, her tears burst out, she cried and said: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten what you said when you registered your concubines as concubines? You said that you would not let your concubines suffer Wronged, mother, you were there at that time!" This is the biggest reason why their Xia family's daughter is not loved by me, she can't compete for favor in the harem, and she always needs the support of the mother.

It's a pity that I'm not the emperor's brother, and I won't compromise with Xia Zhisu because of my mother. The mother also understands this very well, so the mother didn't hear what Xia Zhisu said just now.

I sneered and said, "Concubine Su, you just had a child, so I don't care about you. But you have to understand that I can pamper you and let you not be wronged, but you have to do a good job first, that is, pay attention to talking to me You are just a little concubine now." Do you really think you are a queen?I didn't say the last sentence, after all, this play has to go on, doesn't it?

Jia Wanru has been with me for so long, she knew from my tone that I was going to be angry, so she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't get angry. In fact, everything happened so suddenly at that time, and the concubine didn't pay attention, so Concubine Su just rolled down the steps. Yes. Later, the concubine specifically asked Yi'er and the other eunuchs present. Yi'er really didn't push Concubine Su on purpose. He was just playing for fun and bumped into Concubine Su accidentally. Today I will bring Yi'er to confess my mistake, and I hope Concubine Su will not be sad about the child anymore." Jia Wanru spoke very to the point, her attitude was very good and humble, and she played a very good role of a mother who brought her child to confess her mistake character of.

I finally calmed down after hearing what Jia Wanru said, and I said to Xia Zhisu: "Yi'er is still young, and he didn't mean it. Concubine Wan also took Yi'er to admit his mistake to you, so don't embarrass him too much."

"Indeed, he is young, he didn't mean it, but he really pushed me down on purpose!" Xia Zhisu still refused to change his words, crying and said: "Maybe someone taught him to do this. Your Majesty, please You must investigate clearly, this concubine does not want our child to die so unclearly."

When Jia Wanru heard this, her face became ugly, "I...I didn't, I didn't let Yier do this, Concubine Su, you must trust me." Jia Wanru hurried forward, grabbed Xia Zhisu's sleeve, and wanted to talk to her Explain it clearly, that expression makes people feel that someone has really been wronged. I guess only I know that Jia Wanru is just pretending.

"Concubine Wan, I didn't say it was you, why did you admit it yourself?" Xia Zhisu wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a sneer: "You deliberately took the prince and me in front of the hundred steps. Show up, and let the prince push me down!" Xia Zhisu is not acting now, she really lost a child, and the real culprit who killed her child is right in front of her eyes, how could she bear it, she shook her He opened Jia Wanru's hand, pointed at Jia Wanru's nose and said, "It's because you killed my child!"

"Su'er!" The queen mother couldn't listen anymore. She also felt that Xia Zhisu's tone was a little bad, and she was still accusing Jia Wanru of such a groundless accusation. She comforted: "Don't get excited, it might just be a coincidence. You can't talk nonsense, you have no evidence."

"Evidence?" Xia Zhisu snorted coldly, and said with a smile: "Mother, think about it clearly, at that time every day, the concubine would pass by the corridor to the Palace of Compassion and Peace to greet you. Is this a coincidence? It happened on that day Is it a coincidence that I met Concubine Wan and the Crown Prince in front of the hundred steps? Concubine Wan didn't even talk to the concubine in the harem, but she actually chatted with the concubine that day? Is it a coincidence? Although the prince is young, But I also know etiquette, so I bumped into my concubine like this, is this a coincidence? There were too many coincidences that day, right?"

The queen mother was so blocked by Xia Zhisu that she couldn't speak, but after thinking about it, she felt that what Xia Zhisu said was indeed reasonable.I also pretended to be reasonable as Concubine Su said, and asked Jia Wanru: "Concubine Wan, this...why did you appear on the corridor that day?"

Jia Wanru looked at me incredulously, tears finally couldn't help rolling in her eyes, she didn't expect that I didn't believe her?She whimpered and explained: "These are really just coincidences. The concubine didn't know that concubine Su would appear in the corridor at that time. The concubine just saw that the weather was good that day, so she took Yi'er out for a walk, but when she met Concubine Su by chance, she followed her." She said hello, and the concubine chatted with her because she saw that she was pregnant and it was her first child, so she wanted to kindly tell her some precautions. As for Yi'er, Yi'er was still young and naughty, just like a Running around like a monkey, and accidentally bumped into Concubine Su, Your Majesty, please trust your concubine."

"You're just being unreasonable!" In Xia Zhisu's eyes, Jia Wanru's tears were false. Xia Zhisu pointed at Jia Wanru and said sharply, "I come to the Palace of Compassion and Ning at that time every day. Everyone in the harem knows Would you not know? Would you kindly tell me about the pregnancy? You are simply afraid that I will give birth to the prince and shake the position of the prince. You asked the prince to push me down the stairs. You did it on purpose! Stop pretending to be innocent!" Xia Zhisu gritted her teeth at Jia Wanru, her exquisite makeup had already been distorted, but Jia Wanru was just the opposite of her, Jia Wanru no longer refuted anything, just stood in the lobby wiping tears, kept shaking her head, silently accusing herself of being innocent of.

At this time, Li Yi, who had been standing beside Jia Wanru, suddenly raised his head, stretched out his small hand, and pushed towards Xia Zhisu. It is estimated that Li Yi was full of energy, and Xia Zhisu did not expect Li Yi to face her in public. She started, but she didn't guard for a while, and she didn't stand firmly on her feet, so she was pushed to the ground by Li Yi.

The queen mother was shocked when she saw the scene at this time, and quickly asked the maids to help Xia Zhisu up. The queen mother never thought that Li Yi would actually do it, "Yi'er! What are you doing? You actually go to push Su'er She is your concubine! Hurry up and apologize to her."

"No! Yi'er did nothing wrong!" Li Yi's eyes were already red. He walked up to Jia Wanru, stretched out his arms to protect Jia Wanru and cried, "Su Concubine is a bad person! She is in front of so many people. You don't help my mother and concubine who bullies me in front of me, Yi'er helps! Yi'er did nothing wrong!" Li Yi burst into tears as he spoke.Just now Xia Zhisu's tone of voice to Jia Wanru has been bad, and Jia Wanru has said that she wants to apologize, but Xia Zhisu is still so aggressive, she just made Jia Wanru cry. After suffering this kind of crime, as a son, Li Yi naturally didn't want his mother to be insulted, so he staged a play of protecting his mother.

In the eyes of our bystanders, Li Yi's behavior is justifiable. Who would watch his mother being bullied and not resist.But Xia Zhisu was the only one among us who didn't realize this. On the contrary, she felt that Li Yi's pushing her like this now reflected that Li Yi pushed her like that that day.So Xia Zhisu glanced at Li Yi, and then said to me and the queen mother: "Your majesty, queen mother, you also saw it just now. The prince pushed the concubine to the ground just now, and the prince pushed the minister on purpose that day." Concubine, please ask the emperor's mother to be the master of the concubine!"

Xia Zhisu just wants me to punish Jia Wanru and Li Yi for their crimes, but she doesn't know that she has gradually stepped into the trap woven by Jia Wanru.Jia Wanru admitted his mistake from the very beginning, and her attitude was very good, but Xia Zhisu still made things difficult for him in every possible way, speaking harshly, and forced people to cry. Li Yi was young and couldn't control his emotions, so he did it to protect his mother. After pushing Xia Zhisu a bit, Xia Zhisu made a big fuss by taking advantage of him.In fact, Xia Zhisu was the victim in this whole incident, but her tone and attitude have always been very bad, which made others feel a little sympathetic to Jia Wanru.

"Concubine Su, you have to be forgiving and forgiving. The crown prince is just eager to protect his mother. Why do you hold on to him?" At this time He Wenliu finally spoke. Looking at him, I saw that He Wenliu's face became more and more ugly. When Jia Wanru was crying just now, he clenched his fists.As he said that, He Wenliu came out from the concubine row, saluted me, raised his head, looked at me with eyes, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I can prove that the prince didn't push Concubine Su on purpose to make Su Concubine The concubine had a miscarriage."
