Overturning the little milk bottle of the metaphysics boss, everyone loves it

Chapter 149 Get out smoothly
The situation suddenly turned to the other side, Leng Yuanyu was so angry that he almost didn't come up, he finally waited for the opportunity, did he just watch it slip away?

Leng Yuanyu looked back at Jun Tingsheng, then gritted his teeth and asked: "Sun Qiang said that there are still a few people in the army who are missing, what's going on? Did you kill them?"

Hearing this, I saw Wen Jing's eyes tremble slightly, and he shook his head resolutely: "No, they didn't disappear, but I sent them to Jin Country to secretly investigate Jin Country's reselling of women and children on the border between the two countries."

"Wen Jing!"

Jun Tingsheng scolded him coldly, preventing him from continuing. Wen Jing understood the meaning when he saw this, and immediately shut up and stopped explaining.

And Leng Yuanyu had already seen that this was wrong, he let go of his hands and looked at the two of them separately, and said with a sneer, "Are you singing the oboe in front of me?"

"Sometimes you say that you are responsible, and then you say that this matter was done by you alone. I think you are clearly acting. If this is the case, I will really enforce the law impartially."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and told the yamen servant in charge of the execution, "Continue to torture me until I know he is telling the truth!"

"Yes, my lord."

The man picked up the leather whip that had been soaked in salt water on the table, and stepped forward to raise the whip and was about to beat it down, but the whip was caught in mid-air.

Jun Tingsheng clenched his whip in one hand and his fist in the other, "How can Leng Yushi be sure that what he just said is not true?"

"Your Majesty ordered you to conduct a thorough investigation, but you were not beaten into a trick. I think it's better to bring people to the Majesty to clarify the facts, and the Majesty will make his own decision at that time."

After finishing speaking, Jun Tingsheng's hand holding the whip suddenly exerted force, and the yamen servant suddenly felt a pull, and he staggered forward a few steps.

Although Leng Yuanyu was unwilling, the current situation could no longer allow him to continue, otherwise Jun Tingsheng would have every reason to sue him for favoritism and fraud.

"Okay, since the son is so courageous, I won't ask for trouble to stop me, so I ask the Holy One to make a decision."

So, the two stayed in the prison until dawn, and Jun Tingsheng immediately brought Wen Jing Miansheng with him.

At the same time, Song Baoling had just changed his clothes and was about to go out, but he was stopped by a group of palace people as soon as he arrived in the yard.

"Master Jingling, the Empress ordered me to come and take you to Jingren Palace, and I hope the Lord will come with us as soon as possible."

"Okay, let's go."

Song Baoling left with them calmly, but he realized that something important had happened in his heart. Thinking of what happened when he parted with Jun Tingsheng just now, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Gyeongin Palace——

"The empress has been waiting for a long time, the county magistrate please."

Song Baoling took a deep breath, then walked into the room, besides the empress, concubine Leng and Song Baochai were also present.

"Ling'er kowtowed to the empress."

The empress stared at her with a livid face, and asked immediately: "Song Baoling, I ask you, are you having an affair with Mu Zhong?"

Hearing this, Song Baoling showed a look of bewilderment, "Affair? I don't know where the Empress heard the rumors. The relationship between Commander Mu and I is innocent. There is no such thing as an affair."

"My servant saw with my own eyes this morning that the county lord and Commander Mu had a tryst and behaved intimately."

The person who spoke was Cuilan, the close concubine of Concubine Leng. Song Baoling remembered that she had indeed seen him this morning. At that time, she pretended nothing had happened and left. Unexpectedly, she planned such a thing behind her back.

Concubine Leng snorted softly, and said sharply: "Now you are living in the palace by the order of the Holy Majesty, but you have a private meeting with a man. If this matter gets out, how can the Holy Majesty lose face?"

"Besides, Cuilan has no grievances with you. Why did she frame you? You'd better answer truthfully in front of the empress, otherwise you will be punished."

Seeing this, Song Baochai, who had never said a word, hesitated for a moment, adding fuel to the connotation: "Although this sister of this palace is young, she has a lot of eyes."

"It stands to reason that she is my cousin, and I should intercede for her, but she has no sense of shame, so naturally I will not indulge her too much, and I hope the empress will punish her severely."

Song Baoling saw that they joined forces to attack, and already had a countermeasure in mind, pretending to be wronged, leaned over and kowtowed: "The empress has clearly checked, the little girl really didn't have an affair with Commander Mu."

"The reason why the little girl met Commander Mu today was because the little girl thought of her father's birthday coming soon, so she wrote a letter to her father, but the little girl can't leave the palace at will, so I had to ask Commander Mu to deliver the letter."

Concubine Leng's face was startled for a moment, and she immediately rejected it: "Impossible! The meeting is only for a letter, do you think I'm easy to fool?"

"That's the truth, the little girl is just telling the truth."

"Nonsense! You are clearly trying to quibble!"

"Everything my little girl said is true. Concubine Leng is so aggressive. She wants to accuse my little girl of 'fornication' just based on the words of a close maid. Could it be that she is taking selfish revenge?"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding atmosphere instantly became tense, and Concubine Leng was so stunned that she couldn't speak, she could only stare at Song Baoling angrily.

"Okay, you all have your own arguments, and it's hard for me to determine the truth for a while."

Song Baoling rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and immediately said: "If you want to know the facts, the empress can ask the little girl and Commander Mu separately. If we say something different, the little girl is willing to be punished."

The queen stared at Song Baoling for a long while, then called a servant from the palace and told him to go to Mu Zhong for questioning.

After a long time, the palace servant came back and reported, "The servant asked according to the order of the empress. Commander Mu said that the Lord of Jingling County did stop him this morning, and asked him to help deliver the letter to Xuanpinghou."

Saying so, the palace servants presented a letter, "This letter was handed over by the Lord Jingling County to Commander Mu."

After the queen opened and read the contents of the letter, her expression eased a bit, "This matter is indeed as Song Baoling said."

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Leng was the first to react, and immediately stepped forward to help Song Baoling: "Get up quickly, I was too impatient just now, and that's why I wronged you."

Now that the truth is revealed, how could Song Baoling give up so easily, and cried out in tears: "Your Majesty, the reputation of a daughter's family has always been very important. If the news of today's incident gets out, how can my little girl meet people?"

"What's more, my little girl was entrusted by the Holy Majesty the day before yesterday to receive the distinguished guests who are coming to the banquet of the Four Kingdoms. If something goes wrong due to today's incident, how should my little girl explain to the Holy Majesty?"

The queen heard the meaning of her words, and took the opportunity to reprimand: "Concubine Leng, is this how you teach your servants on weekdays? You dare to spread random words without proof, and now things have become like this, what do you think should be done? "

Concubine Leng saw the queen throwing the question to herself, looked at Song Baoling who was full of grievance, turned around and slapped Cuilan on the face.

"Today, you made an outrageous mistake. Thinking that you have served me for many years, I will give you thirty sticks as a punishment. If you do it again in the future, you will be severely punished!"
