Don't help me, I can sit up by myself

No one ordered it. "Xiao Wu was exposed and simply stopped pretending. She endured the pain in her legs and smiled: "I have been living with the Queen before. The Queen is sincere to the Emperor. Unfortunately, Du Changzai later entered the palace and the Emperor favored me. They all were given to her, and the Queen was left alone to guard Jingren Palace, which was very desolate. The Empress took pity on her, and she thought that she would be a stumbling block for Du Changzai. "

"and then?"

"Then, the Empress sent the slave to the Wanru Palace, saying that she would serve Du Changzai. The slave thought that if she could pretend to be a man and bring down Du Changzai, and Du Changzai fell, the slave might be able to return to the queen. The queen is waiting by your side, so I do this."

"Why choose tonight?"

"Because Du Chang often goes to the Taihe Palace to serve the emperor recently, and returns to the Wanru Palace at the end of the day every day. The servant is attentive and can remember the time by secretly observing it a few times. When I followed Du Chang to Jingren Palace to pay my respects, I heard It was said that tonight the Queen will take all the queens through the corner gate to enjoy the flowers in the Royal Garden. The servant thought that tonight is a perfect opportunity. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Du Changzai will definitely not be able to argue. I don’t think Du Changzai has been prepared for me. It was your miscalculation."

The queen originally came to eat the melon, but unexpectedly the melon fell directly on her head.

The maid from her palace caused trouble in Wanru Palace. There is no guarantee that everyone will not suspect that this has something to do with the queen. After all, one is a resentful woman in the palace, and the other is a celebrity in front of the emperor. If it is out of jealousy, it makes sense. .

The emperor looked at Xiaowu's face coldly and said, "It's a good thing you didn't grab the queen, otherwise you would die immediately."

The queen's heart was filled with tears. The emperor supported her so much. Was that true love? She knew that although the emperor was cold to her, he actually still cared about her as the middle palace member.

The Emperor: "The Queen has always been stupid and would never do anything like instigating others to do dirty tricks."

Queen

Happy early.

The concubines felt a lot because of Xiaowu's remarks.

"Speaking of which, Xiaowu isn't too bad. She is actually a loyal slave, and she also wants to compete for the Queen's favor."

"If Xiao Wu had been waiting at Jingren Palace, maybe today's incident would not have happened, alas."

Xiaowu, who was lying on the ground, shrank.

The emperor looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze.

Flying over eaves and walking over walls in the palace is not the practice of ordinary palace ladies.

It is even more difficult for a man to dress up as a woman and walk around the walls in the palace.

After being discovered, in order to cover up the truth, she did not hesitate to use scalding soup to scald her life by a thread. This is not the courage that an ordinary palace maid should have.

Everything that is abnormal is a monster.

The emperor's eyes fell on Xiaowu's light brown hair.

Xiao Wu had hurriedly styled her hair into a bun after returning to the palace. There was a small pink flower stuck under the bun. Light brown hair was extremely rare, at least it was the only one in the palace.

Reminiscent of the people who were assassinated outside during the Shangyuan Festival. The hair of those who did the assassination was also light brown. According to the report from the government official, the dead people with light brown hair were from the frontier fortress. In the end, a young man with light brown hair named Xiaoshuang helped them collect the bodies. According to the young man named Xiaoshuang, Those people were all his relatives, and they left their hometown just to beg for food.

Xiaoshuang, Xiaowu, do they really have such coincidental names?

Because the assassins were dead, the case was closed. Now that Xiaowu is causing trouble in the palace, how do you know that there is nothing involved?

The emperor's heart was ups and downs for a long time, but his face remained calm.

The moon has set in the west and is about to fall outside the palace wall. The palace walls are silent and the reflections are dim.

The crows began to take advantage of dawn to look for food. The cries of crows resounded throughout the palace, and large groups of crows flapped their wings and swooped down before scattering away.

The emperor's eyes were so deep that he could not see the bottom at a glance: "Xiaowu."

"The servant is here."

"Your hair is special."

"My hair was born in my mother's womb. It's just because my mother lacked food and clothing when she was pregnant with me. My child was malnourished and weak, so my hair is not as good as others'."

Mist is very easy to camouflage.

"I received a memorial a few days ago, saying that a few people with light brown hair took advantage of the Lantern Festival to commit murder outside. The murder failed and they lost their lives. The government office handed their bodies to a young man with light brown hair. Buried."

Xiaowu's eyes narrowed.

"That young man is very capable, but it's a pity."

"What's a pity?"

"It's just a pity that after the young man buried them, he was killed by a group of gangsters."

Xiaowu's eyes turned red.

There are very few people with light brown hair in the capital, and Xiaowu knows who they are. But she seemed unwilling to believe it, and stared up at the emperor with wide eyes: "Does the emperor know that boy's name? Does he know who killed him?"

The emperor was silent.

Xiaowu suddenly crawled on her knees and grabbed Meng Yuzhu's Begonia flower brocade clothes, with a pleading tone in her mouth: "Your Majesty, please tell me, who killed him?"

Meng Yuzhu's face turned pale and she was kicked aside by Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu used all her strength to hold on to her begonia flower brocade clothes and refused to let go. She murmured: "My dear concubine, tell me who killed her." Who is he?"

"Are you seeking death, my slave?" Meng Yuzhu pulled out the golden hairpin from her hair and stabbed it into Xiaowu's face. The hairpin was inserted into Xiaowu's eye socket, and a stream of blood flowed out from her eye socket. Xiaowu covered her face with blood and fell to the ground, wailing in pain. After a while, there was no movement, not even a wailing sound.

The concubines were frightened.

Although it was discovered that Xiao Wu had done something inappropriate, the palace had laws and regulations, and the emperor and queen were both here. What kind of trouble was the noble concubine and the empress doing? Why did she treat Xiaowu so cruelly?

Acting for heaven?

Gao Rang squatted down and felt Xiao Wu's breath, then felt Xiao Wu's pulse, and shook his head.

Dark red blood spread on the ground, and Xiao Wu's entire face was covered in blood. Her beautiful light brown hair was also stained with blood, and the light brown and blood overlapped together, like dead flowers.

The concubines stepped back one after another.

The imperial concubine knelt at the emperor's feet: "Your Majesty, I have lost my composure."

"How to say?"

"Xiao Wu suddenly grabbed my clothes. I was very scared. I was so scared that I lost my temper. I just wanted to keep her away from my concubine. I just wanted to scare her with the hairpin, but I accidentally missed it."

"Why did Xiao Wu pull your clothes away from the imperial concubine before she died?" the emperor asked her, holding back his hands.

"It's probably because this Xiao Wu lost her mind, and she pulled my concubine in a panic. Your Majesty, this concubine is not familiar with this Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu used to serve in the Jingren Palace of the Empress, and was deeply appreciated by the Empress. , Xiaowu committed these unforgivable sins because of the Queen’s lax discipline.”

Queen: Your concubine, you killed Xiaowu in one fell swoop, do you still want to kill me in one fell swoop?

The concubines were also talking a lot.

Even if Xiaowu commits the crime of striking lightning from the sky, it is not the imperial concubine's turn to do justice for heaven.

The imperial concubine is very ruthless, killing her with one move.

Everyone else was panicking, but Meng Yuzhu was the only one pretending to be calm.

Then she is just pretending.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Wu didn't seem to have harmed the Imperial Concubine. Why did the Imperial Concubine want to take Xiao Wu's life? Did the Imperial Concubine have any secrets that she was afraid Xiao Wu would reveal?" Shi Jing always spoke openly. "How dare you, a small and humble young lady, come to question me?"

Shi Jing curled his lips: "Who asked the imperial concubine to kill Xiaowu? Did the imperial concubine say that accidental injury was accidental injury?"

"It was originally an accidental injury."

"Then why haven't you seen the imperial concubine accidentally injuring the emperor and stabbing him to death?"

Everyone took a breath of cold air.

The emperor frowned.

Shi Jing, have you gone to Jingren Palace too often to ask for permission, and have you learned the empress's unconventional habits? Or maybe you haven't inherited any of the talents of your father, Shi Shi, what you said in public. What is this nonsense.

"Shi Jing is so helpless, he should be slapped on the mouth." The imperial concubine rounded up her palm and slapped Shi Jing on the mouth.

Look at her strength. If she slapped her correctly, Shi Jingshao would lose two front teeth.

Emperor: "Queen."

Queen: "Your Majesty, my concubine is here."

"Cough cough."

The queen finally understood: "Your Majesty, I am still alive, are you going to enforce the palace rules?"

Meng Yuzhu had no choice but to take her hand back.

A pink and purple figure knelt down in front of the emperor.

She was crying, covering her face with a handkerchief, the beads on her head were trembling slightly, and her thin body seemed to have withstood the wind and rain for countless years. When she raised her head, it was Tian Lingyue.

Everyone knows that Tian Lingyue is the concubine's lackey.

Everyone thought Tian Lingyue wanted to speak for the imperial concubine.

"Your Majesty, I want to report the imperial concubine."

Tian Lingyue had always been obedient to Meng Yuzhu. She could only stand while Meng Yuzhu was sitting. She did not dare to laugh when Meng Yuzhu cried.

Her family background is humble, her talents are limited, and she is not outstanding among the beautiful girls. She finally managed to get close to the big tree Meng Yuzhu. When jade beads are prosperous, they are both prosperous, and when they are damaged, they are both damaged.

Besides, she and Meng Yuzhu only lived in Changle Palace, and Meng Yuzhu was the head of the palace. If Tian Lingyue dared to offend Meng Yuzhu, Meng Yuzhu would have many ways to punish her.

Du Jiyan only knew that Tian Lingyue had some tricks. He never thought that she could report Meng Yuzhu. She dared to report Meng Yuzhu.

Since Tian Lingyue dares to stand up, it means that she must have something against Meng Yuzhu, and it is something that can bring down Meng Yuzhu. Otherwise, if Meng Yuzhu cannot be punished and Meng Yuzhu has a chance to breathe, no one else will suffer. , Tian Lingyue was the first to bear the brunt of the misfortune.

Naturally, Meng Yuzhu would not have thought that Tian Lingyue, who held her arm and asked her to be careful about the threshold and her feet when she went out to enjoy flowers, would betray her and change her face before the night had passed?

I really underestimated her.

Meng Yuzhu kicked Tian Lingyue so hard that she fell on her back: "Little hoof, you did it wrong."

Meng Yuzhu would rather believe that the emperor betrayed her than the timid Tian Lingyue dared to betray her.

In her opinion, Tian Lingyue was just a chess piece in her hand. Who would have thought that a chess piece could bite someone.

A big footprint appeared on Tian Lingyue's face, and blood came from the corner of her mouth. She held half of her burning face, dipped the blood at the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and held back the tears: "How dare you worry about others saying that you can do those things?"

"Little Hoof, what are you talking nonsense about? What have I done? I will tear your mouth apart."

The queen was smarter this time. She stood in front of Tian Lingyue, waving her handkerchief, and said in a calm manner as a queen should: "My dear concubine, please be patient and don't be impatient. You have to let Tian agree to speak."

Tian Lingyue's mouth kept dripping blood, and she lay on the ground with great grievance and complained about the mistakes Meng Yuzhu had committed.

"The reason why the imperial concubine killed Xiaowu was because she was afraid that Xiaowu would reveal that the incident of framing Du Changzai was arranged by the imperial concubine."

These women are so dense.

The emperor simply moved a chair and sat down.

"The imperial concubine was jealous of Du Changzai's favor, and wanted Xiao Wu to pretend to be Cui Zhen to ruin Du Changzai's reputation. On the night of the Lantern Festival, those people were in danger outside the palace, and those people were arranged by the imperial concubine. As for the dead boy, he His name is Xiaoshuang, and he was also sent to be killed by the imperial concubine."

Meng Yuzhu was almost kicked to death by Tian Lingyue: "Little hoof, how dare you talk nonsense."

The emperor only glanced at Meng Yuzhu, who immediately stepped back and knelt down.

"The reason why the imperial concubine wanted to kill Xiaoshuang was because the incident on the Lantern Festival was exposed. The imperial concubine was afraid that if Xiaoshuang's whereabouts were exposed, people from the government would track her down, so she ordered someone to kill Xiaoshuang to avoid future troubles. And Xiaoshuang is Xiaowu's brother. Xiaowu is obviously from the Queen's palace, but in fact it is the Queen who has been placed beside the Queen. The reason why Xiaowu and Xiaoshuang are obedient is because the Queen has given them a promise to their brother and sister. , as long as they do good work, they will be given a sum of money to go back to the frontier to treat their parents. In fact, Xiaowu and Xiaoshuang's parents died of illness in the past year."

The emperor remained silent.

"Actually, Dafu pretended to be a ghost and acted like a ghost. He was also instructed by the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine ordered Dafu to pretend to be a ghost, not to scare the other concubines, but to take the opportunity to take Du Changzai's life. If it happens, even if Du Changzai dies, it can be deducted. By giving it to ghosts and gods, the imperial concubine can keep herself safe. Unfortunately, Dafu's matter was exposed, and the imperial concubine arranged Xiaowu's affairs, of course for Du Changzai."

"Tian promised, don't think that you can make up random things after living in Changle Palace for a few days. I have never done any of these things."

If it were said that the imperial concubine did these things, everyone would believe it. After all, the imperial concubine was not a kind person.

But everything depends on evidence.

Tian Lingyue must have evidence.

Of course Tian Lingyue has evidence. Otherwise, she will not be able to win over the imperial concubine, and she herself will not end well.

Without absolute certainty, she didn't dare to reveal the concubine's background.

"In the dark drawer under the concubine's dressing table, there are letters written by Xiao Shuang to Xiao Wu, and letters written by Xiao Wu to Xiao Shuang. The concubine has kept them all. There is also the fake nails and fake bun that Dafu wore when pretending to be a ghost. Etc.”

Soon, Gao Rang led people to search the Changle Palace of the imperial concubine.

Sure enough, in the secret drawer Tian Lingyue said, more than a dozen letters and papers were found, as well as long fake nails and fake buns.

In the face of the evidence, the concubine could not deny it in the end.

The location of these evidences was discovered bit by bit when Tian Lingyue went to Changle Palace to serve the imperial concubine.

Tian Lingyue stood up with support from Shanzhu, and heard the concubines starting to talk.

Shi Jing: "I knew that the concubine couldn't hold it in, but I didn't expect that Tian's promise would be even worse."

Zhao promised: "No, Tian promised to know that the concubine did these evil things, but he only said it now."

Queen: "Tian Zhengyi actually has some evil intentions?"
