The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 95 The Truth

Concubine Ye Gui had never spoken, only after seeing Princess Dingbei's eyes, she looked at Xie Ruzhuo's hand. When she saw the mark on her wrist, she immediately walked over, grabbed Xie Ruzhuo's wrist, and carefully opened her clothes, she saw a circle of purple bruises.

Looking at the mark again, the man must have caught it!

"Miss Xie, what's the matter with the trace on your hand?"

Hearing Concubine Ye’s questioning, tears filled Xie Ruzhuo’s eyes. "Back to Concubine, this is, the five princes did not let me go and caught me. He said that I saw this scene. He wanted to kill me. Quit your mouth!"

Xie Ruzhuo's words were shocking, and what he said suddenly caused an uproar in the crowd.

At this moment, the emperor could only hear the emperor ask for a while, "What happened here?"

Zhenghe Temple is not far from here, and the emperor has also vaguely heard of the movement here. He originally planned to ignore it, but the palace man came to report back, saying that the fifth prince was injured!

The emperor came in a hurry, but happened to see the scene in front of him. The face of the fifth prince was still blushing, but the important part was painful again. At this moment, his face was red and white, and suddenly it was weird.

As soon as she saw Emperor Jing, Concubine Hui burst into tears. With a pair of watery eyes, she looked at the emperor with a pitiful expression, and said, "The emperor, please give your concubines and five princes the master!"

As soon as Emperor Jing was about to speak, he saw Concubine Ye Gui slowly saying, "The emperor, the daughter of the Xie family has just fallen into the water. Now that it is freezing cold, she is going to interrogate and let her change clothes, right? If the courtier's daughter enters the palace for a banquet, but returns home and becomes a sick person, it will be detrimental to the emperor's reputation if it spreads out."

Only then did Emperor Jing see Xie Ruzhuo, who was surrounded by the people of the Xie family, nodded and said, "Well, that's the case, then go and change your clothes." As he said, he looked at Xiao Junyi with an ugly expression. "Since the fifth prince is injured, let's pass the imperial doctor first."

Concubine Hui was a little unwilling to say, "The emperor, there is someone in front of you who wants to slander the reputation of the fifth prince! The concubine asks the emperor for permission to let all related people go to the nearest palace, and wait for it to be cleaned up, and the emperor will give justice!"

After all these years, Concubine Hui has a solid foundation in the palace, and she guessed that the emperor's mind has always been very accurate, and she is quite favored. At this time, hearing Concubine Hui's words like this, the emperor's brows wrinkled tightly, and said, "If this is the case, then do it according to Concubine Hui's words."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Hui was overjoyed and glanced provocatively at Concubine Ye Gui, before hurriedly instructing people to help the fifth prince back to the nearby Zhaoyang Palace.

Xie Ruzhuo was supported by Hongrui Jiangzhu, Qianbi cautiously behind the palace maid who was scared to death, and the group went to the Zhaoyang main hall after they went to the Zhaoyang Palace inner hall to change their clothes.

Due to Concubine Hui's instructions, Qiao couldn't enter the inner hall, so he could only wait anxiously in the main hall. Although she didn't know the cause and effect, she felt very distressed by Xie Ruzhuo's appearance. Seeing Xie Ru figured out at this moment, she greeted her in a hurry, but took into account the emperor and concubine Hui who were sitting upright, her expression stopped.

Xie Ruzhuo understood what the Qiao family meant, and gave her a soothing look, and then walked to the center of the hall without hurries, and said, "The courtiers please your majesty, and the ladies."

"Forget it." Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "What happened, you can elaborate on it."

"Yes." Xie Ruzhuo glanced at the concubine Hui in the main hall, and then said loudly, "Today, the courtier was unwell. When he was out, he encountered the five princes who violated the court ladies and kicked the other party into the water. The court ladies went into the water to save others. He was threatened by the five princes verbally. The maidservant Chachen arrived and desperately called for help. Only then did the guards arrived and prevented the five princes from further behavior."

"You're bloody!" Concubine Hui started to shoot the case and pointed at Xie Ruzhuo, "What a bad-intentioned daughter of the Xie family, you keep saying that my emperor is threatening you, then I will ask you how many of the guards are there. Are you brave enough to fight the five princes of the dynasty? It is clear that you beat the prince first, and then slander him!"

"Return to Concubine Hui, the minister was in a hurry just now, and indeed pushed the fifth prince, and the emperor is required to punish this. But the court daughter is true, and I hope the emperor will learn from it." Xie Ruzhuo simply admitted the matter neatly. , Looked up at the emperor without evasive.

Hearing this, the emperor avoided Xie Ruzhuo and turned to the trembling palace lady, "I ask you, is what Miss Xie said is true?"

The palace lady raised her head tremblingly when she heard the emperor's questioning. She didn't want to, and immediately met Concubine Hui's warning eyes. The palace lady's body shook involuntarily, and she hesitated when she wanted to open her mouth.

After such a big event, Concubine Xian was sitting in the front hall and couldn't stay any longer. In recent years, although the second prince's prestige has grown day by day, but the concubine Hui's position in the palace is stable, coupled with the emperor's favor, it is not uncommon to support the fifth prince. Concubine Xian holds her own identity, and sometimes it is inevitable to fight Concubine Hui like a black-eyed chicken.

After hearing such good news from behind, she immediately ordered the palace staff to serve the ladies, and she hurried to Zhaoyang Palace.

As soon as she entered the hall, she saw the appearance of the palace lady, she was happy, but solemnly said on her face, "Don't be afraid, this is the palace, there is the emperor here, and there are noble concubines sitting in the town, no one can threaten You go."

When Concubine Hui saw Concubine Hyun, she didn't get angry. When she heard this, she was angry and laughed. "Sister Xian Concubine said this is strange. Under all eyes, who dares to threaten her? However, I The emperor was so drunk that he didn't go to his palace to find his concubines, but instead molested a little court lady outside. I don't know if it was the court lady's bad luck, or the bad intentions, and there was something that shouldn't be there. Thoughts!"

"No slaves!"

The palace lady was hesitant before, when she heard Concubine Hui’s words, she straightened her back and panted, saying, "The slave and the maidservant are innocent and enter the palace, only serving the master with all their heart. How dare there be anything that shouldn’t be done? Thoughts? Tonight, the servants left after passing the food, but unexpectedly, the five princes followed closely and forced me all the way to do that unruly thing. The servants couldn't do it, and the five princes kicked them into the water! Miss Xie's words are not bad at all, and I hope the emperor will call the shots for me!"

When she was speaking, her eyes were filled with tears, and her model was pretty good, and now she is more and more distressed.

"You are so courageous, it is so easy to slander the prince! If the fifth prince really did something to you, how can you escape with a small and weak woman? Or do you really think he has the skill Did Bai learn it?" Concubine Hui grasped the details in her words and immediately retorted.

After she said this, she knelt down again with a puff, and said, "The emperor, the concubine does not know who is so courageous, as he deliberately here is to harm my emperor, but the conscience of heaven and earth, the emperor would rather believe that such an unknown origin The palace lady, don’t you want to believe your own son?"

Emperor Jing had doubts at first, but now hearing Concubine Hui's words like this, she feels that what she said is more reasonable. After all, the work of the five princes was taught by Wu Zhuangyuan in this dynasty. He drank alcohol. If he really wanted to do something to a palace lady, the palace lady would definitely not be able to get rid of it.

Unless, this is a trap for the five princes!

As she read this, Emperor Jing couldn't help but feel a little skeptical, and said loudly, "What Concubine Hui said is also very reasonable. Come, take off this palace lady's waistband, verify one by one, and then report."

When he gave the order, a guard came forward to get a badge from the lady of the court.

But she didn't want to. The court lady immediately removed the sign on her waist, threw it on the ground, and said with tears in her eyes, "The emperor, heroic, even if you look at everything you want to verify, the servants and maids are not afraid of anything. It's just— —"

When she said this, she suddenly got up and drew the saber from the waist of the guard, and then, amidst the exclaim of everyone, she put the dazzling point of the sword on her neck, and said bitterly, "It's just that the servants are innocent, although they are not innocent. It’s ruined, but today’s events have caused me to have no face to see everyone in the world again. It would be better to die to prove my innocence!"

After speaking, she suddenly wiped the sword against her neck fiercely, and then slowly fell to the ground amidst everyone's shocked eyes.

There was only a "ding-" sound, the sword fell on the ground, and there was a purple jade hairpin that fell with the sword.

Just before her hair, someone hit her hand with a hairpin, causing the lady's hand to lose strength. Although she still cut her neck, she was no longer in serious trouble.

And the person who made the shot was Xiao Xinyue.

The court lady sat on the ground, looked at the person who shot the shot in disbelief, and then cried, "Why don't you let me die? Although I have been saved now, the fifth prince has been murdered. After telling the truth, there is no possibility of surviving anymore. It's not that I should die today, so that I can save myself from being humiliated in the future!"

"Nonsense! If you are alive, there is still hope. But if you are dead, wouldn't it make those little people proud!" Concubine Xian coldly rebuked, and asked the maid to help the maid up. She could understand that what the maid said was true. If this is the case, the five princes' virtues will definitely be remembered by the emperor. If the second prince can take the opportunity to play a game, it may be possible to let the emperor disappoint him from now on!

Concubine Hui clutched her chest and pointed to the court lady. "You dare to show off your sword! You know, it's a capital crime!" Then, she turned and knelt again, and said sadly, "The emperor, the concubine doesn't know this. Who is the person behind the scenes? From the time the play has been performed to the present, the only purpose is to harm my emperor. In that case, please punish our mother and son, and follow the wishes of the person behind the scenes. The farce is over!"

Emperor Jing was stroking his forehead with a headache, and said, "What are you doing? Today's New Year's Eve, but you didn't let me live in peace, are you going to rebel!"

As soon as he said this, the people in the hall knelt on the ground and said in unison, "The emperor forgive me."

Emperor Jing glanced at Xie Ruzhuo who was silent from beginning to end after speaking, and sighed, "The doctor, didn't you say he went to see the injuries of the fifth prince, why haven't he come yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the emperor walk in from outside the hall with a panic expression, and said, "See the emperor, the minister has been waiting outside the hall for a long time, just waiting for the emperor to call."

Emperor Jing glanced at him and said, "How are the injuries of the fifth prince?"

Hearing this, the emperor suddenly got a little nauseated, and couldn't stand the questioning of Emperor Jing's eyes, so he had to truthfully replied, "Back to the emperor, there are no other injuries on the fifth prince. It's just that the root of life has suffered some injuries and needs to be recovered for a while. It’s a blessing to simply pass on the clan in the future without affecting it."

Concubine Hui was originally angry, but now when he heard that the place where Xiao Junyi was injured was the lifeblood, she changed her complexion immediately, knelt on the ground and started to cry, "The emperor, please give your concubine and emperor your master. !"
