Consort Zhanzhao

In the silent night, although there were people sitting around, there was no lighting at all, only the moon in the sky was emitting a cold white light.

Extraordinarily terrible.

No one dared to speak, replaced by the sound of the upper and lower teeth fighting one after another.

Zhao Bijia could feel the concubine's hand pinching her fiercely, and it started to hurt a little.

Then a second pair of footprints appeared on the ground.

Despite the fear in his heart, Zhao Bijia still stared at the footprints on the ground.

The footprints are not big, and the imprint is very shallow. At first glance, they belong to the palace ladies, the two palace ladies who just died!

Both pairs of footprints stopped in front of Concubine Pang Guifei's eunuch, shaking his head fiercely in fright, while trembling all over, almost shaking his bones.

The figures of the two maids gradually appeared in the air.

At first, Zhao Bijia thought it was Mrs. Bao, or Mr. Gongsun or Zhanwei's tricks, but when she saw the figures of these two maids, she couldn't help but start to break out in a cold sweat.

This is definitely not a fake.

The figure of the maid was translucent, surrounded by a faint milky white halo, the moonlight shone through their figures, there was no shadow on the ground, even through their backs, Zhao Bijia could see the eunuch's frightened and distorted face.

Zhao Bijia held on to her mother's concubine's hand tightly, but her eyes couldn't help but look at Zhan Zhao again.

It's just that Zhan Zhao still looked down at the three inches of ground in front of his feet, without shifting his gaze at all.But on his face, there was a very calm expression, as usual, not even a drop of sweat.

Zhao Bijia immediately relaxed, took a deep breath, and went to see Master Bao again.

Master Bao pursed his lips tightly, and tilted the mirror in his hand, just enough to draw the moonlight from the sky to shine on the female ghost.

Instead of thinking about the female ghost, Zhao Bijia turned her attention to Zhan Zhao and Lord Bao, Zhao Bijia felt her heart that was about to jump out of her throat fell back down again.

As Master Bao's hands trembled, and the moonlight shifted slightly, Zhao Bijia saw that a small piece of the female ghost's sleeve was suddenly missing.

Now I am really not nervous, this female ghost can only appear in the mirror.

But... Mr. Bao must not be as calm as he appears on the surface.

After the female ghost appeared, she suppressed everyone, and after a while, Bao Zheng said: "Yu Shi, Qi Shi, this person is the eunuch who killed you."

A sharp voice floated in the air, "It's him!"

"The mole on his hand! The resentment on his body!"

"it's him!"

The female ghost pointed to the eunuch in front of her, and saw a circle of black smoke gradually emerging from his body, tumbling continuously, different from the halo on the female ghost, this black smoke made people feel disgusted at first sight.

The eunuch trembled, his mouth grew wide, his mouth trembled uncontrollably, but he couldn't say anything.

But as he repeated it over and over again, Zhao Bijia gradually became able to hear clearly.

"not me!"

"not me!"

"Pang Guifei asked me to go!"

After the last sentence was uttered, the eunuch seemed to be pulled out of all his strength suddenly, and he fell to the ground, crying, "It's Concubine Pang! It's Concubine Pang! It's her instigator. She wants to frame Zhang. The noble concubine's lineage will make use of this matter to make Zhang Guifei and Master Bao at odds!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Concubine Pang finally overcame her fear of the female ghost, stood up, pointed at the eunuch and said sharply, "Who told you to frame me!"

Then he turned around and knelt down towards the emperor, "Your Majesty! The concubine would never do such a thing! Your Majesty, the concubine was wronged. Someone must have framed the concubine!"

It's just that if there is no trembling in her voice, the effect will be better.

The emperor ignored her, looked at Bao Zheng, and sighed, "Take it."

Bao Zheng carefully controlled the mirror, so as not to let the moonlight fall on the person, he opened his mouth with the mirror face down.

The female ghost disappeared, and the circle of resentment around the eunuch also surged twice, and disappeared without a trace.

There was a sound of breathing in the imperial garden.

The emperor stood up and looked at a group of concubines and three daughters behind him.

Except for Zhao Bijia who still looked at him calmly, the rest of the people were all terrified and did not dare to meet his gaze.

The emperor sighed silently in his heart. Although the trial of female ghosts at night also had the meaning of killing chickens and monkeys and testing them, but it seems that except for Bijia who is not guilty, the rest...

The emperor shook his head, and walked slowly to the two eunuchs who identified Zhao Bijia, "Who gave you the courage! Who gave you the money!"

"Say!"

The emperor raised his voice suddenly, startling everyone.

"It's Concubine Pang!" The eunuch from the Imperial Garden spoke first, kowtowed while crying: "Your Majesty, spare your life! Your Majesty, spare your life! Concubine Pang said that as long as the marks on the maid's face are said to be scratched by cats, there will be benefits!"

The emperor snorted coldly, and looked at Concubine Jing's eunuch again.

The eunuch trembled first, swallowed, and tremblingly said in a low voice: "It's Concubine Jing!"

Hearing this sentence, Zhao Bijia only felt that he was about to suffer.

Suddenly, the emperor's eyes turned cold, and he raised his foot and kicked the eunuch hard in the heart, "Say it again!"

"It's Concubine Pang!" The eunuch suddenly collapsed, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Concubine Pang gave me the gold, just to let me drag it on Concubine Jing after the incident happened."

As the eunuch's words fell, Zhao Bijia saw Concubine Jing stand up abruptly from the corner of her eye, she shook twice and let out a short sob, "How dare you."

The emperor was attracted by the voice, and turned his head to see Concubine Jing's haggard face, her clothes were so baggy that her figure could hardly be seen, and she felt guilty, and said, "I have wronged you."

Concubine Jing wept again, but this time, there was joy in it.

Zhao Bijia looked at all this calmly. Concubine Jing, who has been like an invisible person since she was abolished, performed so well today... I always feel that Concubine Pang Guifei has been tricked by her.

The emperor sighed, pointed at Zhao Xuan's eunuch and said, "Let him go! The rest will be dealt with by Kaifeng Mansion."

Bao Zheng hurriedly got down from the altar and said: "I obey the order!"

The emperor looked around again, looked at Concubine Pang Guifei who was kneeling on the ground sobbing, and the concubines who were dodging their eyes, and said, "Conspiracy to frame the master! The crime is aggravated!"

When the three of them heard this, they all went limp and collapsed on the ground, almost unable to get up.

"As for you—" the emperor pursed his lips and looked at Concubine Pang Gui, "Let me think about it."

This was said with gritted teeth, absolutely no meaning of mercy.

Obtaining the emperor's order, Bao Zheng summoned Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others to come, together with Zhan Zhao, lifted the three of them from the ground one by one, and walked out of the palace under pressure.

Zhao Bijia watched Zhan Zhao's figure disappear into the Royal Garden. Although he thought his seriousness and focus on handling the case was very attractive, it was too disgusting not to even give him a look.

I pinched someone's shoulder yesterday.

╭ (╯ ^ ╰) ╮

At the same time, Zhan Zhao also heaved a sigh of relief. Although he didn't look carefully in the group of concubines, he glanced over from the corner of his eye and found that there was no little prince inside.

The little prince is thin and weak, and he probably won't be much better, so it's better not to let him see such scenes.

It seems that the little prince is still very favored by His Majesty.

~ (≧ ▽ ≦) / ~

Zhan Zhao felt very relieved, and while carrying the eunuch who committed the crime forward, he was still able to distract himself from thinking about how to teach the little prince some kung fu later.

Gongsun Ce followed Bao Zheng, turned his head and glanced at Guard Zhan, who was expressionless and relieved.

When he entered the palace, he was afraid that the guard Zhan would show his flaws by flirting with the princess in front of the emperor. Although the guard Zhan could be regarded as a dragon and phoenix among the people, and he had a good character, but the time to enter the palace was still short.

And the princess is only sixteen.

It’s just that after going through such a situation, Gongsun Ce is relieved. Zhan Huwei can’t pick out a single fault in how he behaves in the world, so Master Bao must be able to rest assured~

Lord Bao: I still think he doesn’t know ╮(╯▽╰)╭

The figures of everyone in Kaifeng Mansion had just disappeared, and the emperor hadn't spoken yet, when Zhao Xuan's voice sounded in the imperial garden.

"Father, my son caught a suspicious person in the palace!"
