Reborn as King again

Although Xia Jin is the daughter of a collateral branch of the Xia family, the actual relationship is farther than that. For example, if I punish the Xia family, she will not be implicated.

I was really surprised when I found out that the person who had an affair with someone was Xia Jinhou. To be honest, I doubt that anyone in the palace would suspect her.I have long forgotten what Xia Jin looks like. I only remember that she was born in a poor family and was a timid person. Back then, the Xia family sent three people into the palace, Xia Zhirou, Xia Zhiyuan and Xia Jin.After so many years, Xia Zhirou died, Xia Zhiyuan was deliberately neglected by me, and what about Xia Jin?I think she is a poor person, she has nothing to do with the Xia family that I hate, so when I first entered the palace, I put her in a very remote courtyard in the palace and ignored her. Anyway, she is also the master, as long as she keeps herself safe, her life in the palace will not be sad, just like He Wenliu in her previous life.

In addition to Xia Jin, Wanfu also found out that the imperial doctor who diagnosed Xia Jin was Wu Yuyu. The imperial doctor gave Xia Jin a prescription five months ago, which was for long-term lung disease. He had to drink it every day. Not long after Doctor Wu gave Xia Jin a diagnosis and treatment, he, who likes to gamble, even spent all day in the gambling shop on his rotation holidays, and every time he paid a lot of money, and he could pay back whatever he lost. Fill in, it seems to have made a windfall, but more than three months ago, Yuyi Wu was found dead in the back alley of the gambling house one morning. All the money he won in the gambling house the day before was gone. The rich and ostentatious were taken by the robbers, so he was murdered for money, and the Yamen has not solved the case so far.

In my opinion, "seeking money and murdering life" is only a superficial matter, in fact, it was suppressed because Wu Yuyi prescribed a fake medicine list.

Xia Jin seems to be from the Xia family, but the Xia family didn't take her seriously at all. They sent her to the palace just to see that she was beautiful. Maybe she could catch my eye, but in fact I only called her to serve her. After going to bed once, she never paid any attention to her again. In addition, the Xia family produced two concubines, Xia Zhirou and Xia Zhisu, how could the Xia family remember her?He had long regarded her as an abandoned child and left her to fend for herself in the harem.Therefore, the death of Imperial Physician Wu must not have been caused by Xia Jin, because she did not have such a big background and could extend outside the palace. After such an analysis, Xia Jin's concubine was more or less powerful. Unknowingly get rid of Wu Yuyi without being suspected.

After Wanfu finished reporting to me, I thought for a while and said, "Go, send someone to bring Xia Jin and all the eunuchs in her yard to Taiye Court."

"Uh... this..." Wanfu was stunned, afraid that he heard it wrong, where is Taiye Court?It is a place specially for me to abuse and play. Taiye Court is an empty square, built near Taiye Lake. I am usually in a bad mood, or come up with some new ideas that are evil, and I will always be there. Taiye court executes, but the objects of execution are all prisoners of the royal family of other countries who have committed crimes. I played to death and maimed many people, but I never do anything to people in the palace, even if it makes me angry. But now I want to bring a concubine to Taiye court, which makes Wanfu a little unacceptable.

"What are you talking about? Hurry up and do it!"

"Yes."

Wanfu hurried out to make arrangements, how thoughtful he is, after all, this is a royal scandal, I am going to hold a summer brocade in Taiye Court with great fanfare, it is not clear that everyone knows about it?Usually, if I do something bad in Taiye Court, there will always be a large group of inner eunuchs watching, and they will report to the master when they turn back, or it will be spread in the palace that the emperor has come up with some bad idea to torture the captives.

Wanfu was afraid that I had done too much and couldn't stop, so he found two confidantes who knew from the beginning what was going on and worked for me, and asked them to tell the mother and Zhou Ling about it, so that the mother and Zhou Ling could also go to the palace. Ye Ting persuaded me not to let me go too far.

Then, I sat on the imperial chariot, followed by a group of emperor's exclusive honor guards, and marched towards Taiye Court. The eunuchs who came and went in the palace knew that there was a good show to watch, and they all followed Went to Taiye Court to watch the excitement.

The Taiye court is similar to an open-air execution ground, and there are all kinds of torture instruments in it, from sticks to nail beds, from fingers to wooden donkeys, there are only unimaginable and invisible torture instruments.

As soon as I arrived at Taiye Court, I saw my mother and Zhou Ling were already waiting for me there, I gave Wanfu a cold look, Wanfu felt a chill in his heart, and immediately knelt on the ground and didn't speak.

The queen mother stepped forward and said, "Don't blame Wanfu, he did this for your own good. Listen to the queen mother, you shouldn't torture that bitch in public."

"Since the mother knows about it, why do you come here to persuade me?" I didn't intend to blame Wanfu, this matter would have to spread sooner or later, I didn't want to solve it secretly, I just wanted to bring it to the surface, I said: "You understand you I can't forgive her for her son's temper."

I supported the queen mother, and Zhou Ling walked on the other side of the queen mother, and walked to the observation platform I specially set up for watching the execution in the Taiye Court, and asked the queen mother to sit down first, and Zhou Ling and I sat on each side.

The queen mother still discussed with me: "Emperor, hand over Xia Jin to the Ai family for disposal. After all, this is a scandal and a matter in the harem. Don't come forward, and the Ai family will definitely ask that bitch who the adulterer is." , if this incident breaks out, it will discredit the royal family."

"Mother, if you know about this matter first, I don't have any opinion on how you want to deal with it, but it's because she falls into my hands." How much better would it be? This woman has more methods of torturing people in the harem, such as slapping her mouth and pricking a needle in her body is considered light.

The queen mother knew that persuading me was fruitless, so she had no choice but to sit there and not speak. I watched the group of people sent by Wanfu not far away to look for Xia Jin come here, and I said to the queen mother: "My queen, why don't you first Go back and rest, and I will tell you as soon as I get the result?"

The queen mother intends to sit here and not leave: "No need, the Ai family also wants to see what kind of woman Xia Jin is, who dares to mess up the harem and make a dark knot in the womb?!"

"What about you, Queen?" I turned to Zhou Ling.

Zhou Ling wanted to persuade me too, but when he saw that I didn't listen to what my mother said, he swallowed it too. He smiled at me and said, "Wei Chen is also here to accompany my mother."

Well, they don’t leave, I do this for their own good, I’m afraid that my method of interrogation will be extreme or too bloody, the mother’s heart is not good, and Zhou Ling is a newcomer, I’m afraid they won’t be able to bear it.

The guards led two people into the Taiye Court. One of them was wearing a palace uniform and had a big belly. It seemed that her belly was a little smaller than Liu Sha's. My mother and I hadn't spoken yet. Zhou Ling was not calm at first. , He opened his eyes wide and said: "This...how could this be? The stomach is so big, how come no one in the harem noticed?"

The queen mother and I looked at each other, yes, how could no one notice?Our eyeliner is all over the entire palace. Even though Xia Jin's status is low and she lives in a remote place, she has been pregnant with her child for so long. It is impossible that there will be no rumors. This can only mean that there is one person who cut off the entire source of news.

Xia Jin and the maids behind her knelt on the ground, trembling all over, they knew they were going to die today.

"Stop kneeling," I said, "kneeling is not good for the baby in the stomach, come and help Jin Cairen up." My tone was calm, and I couldn't hear any emotion at all.

All of a sudden, the inner eunuchs who were watching the fun exploded. This...is someone committing adultery and conceiving a child in private? !The eunuchs whispered to each other and asked who is this woman?Seeing that she is wearing palace clothes, she must be a palace official and not a prisoner of another country.

Immediately Xia Jin was forcibly lifted up by the two nuns. Xia Jin raised her head timidly. When she met my eyes, she lowered her head in fright. After watching for so many years, Xia Jin's character remains the same Unchanged, timid and cowardly.Xia Jin is very beautiful, she has the graceful and delicate beauty of Jiangnan women, if she is not from the Xia family, maybe she can really catch my eyes.

"Tell me, who is the handler?" I said.

Xia Jin shook her head and refused to speak.

I sneered: "Why, you love that adulterer so much?"

Xia Jin shook her head, then shook her head vigorously.

I remember that there were two people serving Xia Jin, a court lady and a nanny, why there are fewer people now, I said: "Why are there fewer people?"

A guard who was in charge of finding someone knelt down and pleaded guilty: "On the way my slave went to Taihuayuan to escort Jin Cairen and his eunuchs to Taiye Court, one of the nuns named An Qing saw a well when we were not prepared. Then he ran away suddenly and threw himself into the well. This is a slave who has put it at a disadvantage, please punish him by the emperor."

Did you commit suicide when you knew something was wrong?Aunt An Qing is quite smart. When she saw the emerald bowl, she took it away privately and sold it for an extra sum of money. When the master's pregnancy was revealed, she committed suicide immediately, so as not to be tortured alive. I waved my hand and asked him to go down as a guard: "No problem, She deserved to die, such a way of death is too cheap for her."

"Then tell me, who is your master's adulterer?" I turned to ask the court lady kneeling beside Xia Jin.

As soon as the maid heard that the topic had turned to her, she knelt down and kowtowed non-stop, then waved her hands and shook her head without moving.

"What's going on here?" I said.

"Back to the emperor," Wan Fu continued, "This maid is called Ruolan, she is dumb."

"Mute?" I sneered and said, "Why did you assign Xia Jin a dumb maid? The House of Internal Affairs must have done it on purpose."

My voice was not loud, but it was not too low. All the eunuchs and court ladies who were watching the fun heard it, including a eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

As soon as the eunuch heard this, he murmured in his heart that it was not good. It is a capital offense for someone to have an affair in this palace. Anyone involved with it would suffer a terrible death. This just happened to involve the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If the emperor pursues this, The Ministry of Internal Affairs will suffer!

Thinking of this, the eunuch immediately ran out, knelt down in front of me, and stood in line with Na Ruolan, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, this... the Ministry of Internal Affairs didn't do this on purpose, it was their own request. Please check it out!"

"Who are you? Who allowed you to come out and speak?!" I asked a good question, why did a eunuch suddenly appear to interrupt? !

"I...I..." The eunuch saw that I was a little angry, and was too scared to speak for a long time.

At this time Wanfu explained to me: "Your Majesty, this father-in-law's name is Wan Bao, and he is a father-in-law in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Wan Bao glanced at Wan Fu gratefully, and quickly said, "Yes... yes, the servant is... a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

I gave him a chance to explain: "Then tell me how your Ministry of Internal Affairs arranges it?"

"Yes." Wan Ji thought about it and said: "About five months ago, Mother An Qing came to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and said that a maid in their Taihuayuan had died of illness, and that there were not enough staff in Taihuayuan, and she wanted us to send more In the past, Aunt An Qing also said that their master, Xi Jing, had better find a dumb person, so she took Ruolan away. This is what they asked for, and our House of Internal Affairs is just doing what they asked, Your Majesty. Mingjian."

"Now that An Qing is dead, you can say whatever you want."

"Your Majesty, you should trust this slave." Wan Ji really couldn't argue with anything, desperately trying to find evidence for the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "When Madam An Qing came to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to ask for a dumb maid, there were several people present, and they could all testify."

"Your Majesty," Wan Fu whispered in my ear, "Wan Ji entered the palace at the same time as the servant, and he is the confidant of the servant in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He is very honest and belongs to us. The servant thinks that what he said is probably true."

I glanced at Wanfu, and then said to Wan Ji: "I believe you first, Ruolan is dumb, so can she read?"

Wan Ji heaved a sigh of relief, and replied: "Go back to the emperor, I can't read, this is also what Aunt An Qing requested."

"Okay, I understand, you go down first."

Wan Ji took the order to retreat.

A court lady who can't read, can't speak, and has only served Xia Jin for five months, it seems that even if Ruolan has seen the adulterer, she can't point it out now.

I still turned to Xia Jin and said: "Jin Cairen, I will ask you one last time. If you don't say it now but want to say it in the future, I will not give you a chance. Who is the person who handles it?"

Xia Jin still shook his head, closed his eyes, and said with determination: "You kill me."

wanna die?Want to save that adulterer?How can there be such a cheap thing?Even though Xia Jin is a stranger to me, wearing a shiny green hat makes me feel very uncomfortable, not to mention that because of her, He Wenliu was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed after he recovered.

I didn't pay attention to Xia Jin's attitude of seeing death as home, to torture a person, I have many methods, I said: "Ruolan, right?"

Ruolan raised her head and looked at me with fear on her face.

I smiled and said, "You can't speak, you can't read, can you hear me?"

Ruolan nodded vigorously, indicating that her hearing is fine.

"Since you can hear me, then I will give you two choices. Choose one, and you will be killed with a stick. Choose two. You will take the stick and beat me down with the evil seed in your master's belly."
