The Evil King's Crazy Wife: The World of Ghost Concubine

Chapter 870 Confession
The emperor was so frightened that the bodies of the dozen or so people kneeling on the ground trembled all the time, and it was impossible to see who was suspected.

The emperor squinted his eyes, and interrogated him briefly, but the results were almost the same, either one complained of grievances or the other said he hadn't done it, and he knew that it was impossible to ask why so easily, they all knew it well, no You can escape by telling the truth. If there is really someone playing tricks here, you can take the person down and deal with them after asking clearly. In the palace, is this kind of thing rare?

The queen said: "Your Majesty, these people are very stubborn. It seems that they will not be sent to the punishment palace."

When everyone heard this, they were frightened and begged for mercy: "Your majesty, your majesty is wronged, your servant (servant) is wronged, your majesty will see clearly!"

The emperor snorted coldly: "You are wronged, if you are wronged, then tell the truth, and I will give you justice. If you can't tell, I can only send you to the punishment palace, and naturally someone will punish you! "

How could the emperor care about their lives?As long as the truth can be found out, the death of one or two people is nothing to him. People die every day in this palace, so he is still doing well.

What kind of place is the punishment palace? After entering, how many people can come out in good condition. Some of them have been wronged, and after entering, they are tortured into inhuman shapes. Are there still few unjust ghosts and wild ghosts there?No one is willing to go to the palace, in order to survive, someone will naturally say something.

The person in charge of boiling water said loudly: "Your Majesty, the servant is wronged. The servant is responsible for boiling water, but they are all boiled in one pot after another. Everyone in Xuanhua Palace drinks the water boiled by the servant, but no one wants to drink water." Nothing happened, only Lady Zhaoyi was poisoned, if it was really done by a slave, then everyone must have been poisoned, Your Majesty is clearly aware of it, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, the servant is the same. The servant is responsible for fetching water. If everyone is poisoned, it can be said that the servant did it. But now only Lady Zhaoyi is poisoned. The servant is wronged."

"What you two said is true? Did any of you touch the water alone?"

"If you go back to the emperor, there are absolutely no slaves. There are rules in Xuanhua Palace, you have to do what you have to do, so many eyes are watching, if slaves do other things, they will definitely be discovered. "

Another person quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty, the slave is the same. The slave is responsible for fetching water and has not done anything else. Everyone in the dining room can testify to the slave."

The emperor looked at the queen, and the queen also nodded, and the emperor said: "In this case, the two of you naturally have no chance to poison, but you are both working in the dining room, but when you find someone who is doing things on the scene, there is no chance." different?"

Both shook their heads, the emperor pursed his lips, waved his hands and said, "Take them down, and put them under custody first, and put them back when the truth comes out."

"Yes." De'an understood, and summoned the guards at the door to take the two of them down.

Seeing that two people had been taken down safely, the others all told that they were innocent and that they could not do anything. The emperor felt a headache when he heard this, and said angrily: "Quiet me, what I want is useful information, you guys Among them, if anyone finds out that someone is doing something wrong today and tells the reason, I will reward you a lot."

Everyone looked at each other, thinking in their hearts. As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a great reward. One of the maids raised her hand tremblingly, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

The emperor knew there was something going on, looked at the court lady and said, "If you say what you say is correct, I will definitely reward you."

The palace maid looked at the person in front of her and said, "After Lady Zhaoyi was poisoned, everyone in the palace was very nervous, but they were not as nervous as Qiu Ju, servant girl, servant girl saw that Qiu Ju broke a teacup, and she watched He looked very flustered, as if he was preoccupied."

When the emperor heard this, he narrowed his eyes immediately: "Who is Qiu Ju?"

A woman in front of the palace maid trembled and said: "Slave, servant Qiu Ju, Your Majesty, this servant is wronged, this servant did not poison Lady Zhaoyi, this servant did not."

"Since you didn't poison, why are you so scared?"

The queen said coldly: "Qiu Ju, if it was really you who poisoned you, you'd better tell who told you to do it right away, maybe the emperor will show you a way to survive, and if you hide something, don't say that the emperor I can't spare you, even this palace will definitely want your life to avenge Qing Zhaoyi!"

Qiu Ju kowtowed again and again: "The empress is wronged, the servant is really wronged, the servant did not poison, really did not."

"Since you didn't poison, why did you lose your mind after learning that Qing Zhaoyi was poisoned, and broke the teacup in a panic? You are obviously guilty of a thief!"

Qiu Ju seemed to be a little afraid of something, and opened her mouth timidly, but couldn't tell why.

The emperor was furious: "Come here, take Qiu Ju to the palace and torture her severely until she tells the truth!"

Qiu Ju was so frightened that her face turned pale immediately, she kowtowed and begged for mercy: "No, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me, this servant really didn't do anything, it's not the poison of this servant."

"De'an, don't take me down yet."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

De'an had already called the guards to take Qiu Ju down. When the two guards held Qiu Ju on the left and the right, Qiu Ju couldn't care less about anything else, and nodded indiscriminately while crying: "Your Majesty , the servant girl said, the servant girl said everything, I beg the emperor to spare me."

The emperor waved his hand, signaling the guards to leave him for now, and then asked in a deep voice: "Okay, since you are willing to speak, I will give you a chance to say, what do you know?"

Qiu Ju was so frightened that her face turned pale, her body twitched in fright, and she said intermittently: "If you want to go back to the emperor, this servant girl saw Yingrui sneaking something in her sleeve pocket early this morning. At first, this servant girl thought it was just a girl. It was only a small item in the house, until I heard that Lady Zhaoyi had been poisoned by arsenic, I remembered the scene I saw today, I guess, I guess..."

"Baby maid, since you already knew who was hiding the poison, why didn't you tell me so long!"

"Forgive me, my majesty, I don't know if what I saw contained poison, so I dare not speak nonsense. If Yingrui is wronged, I will feel uneasy."

The queen said to the emperor: "Your majesty, the most important thing now is to ask that maid named Yingrui."

The emperor nodded: "Where is Yingrui?"

Yingrui took two steps on her knees, straightened her back and said, "Slave Yingrui, please greet the emperor."

The emperor frowned: "You are Yingrui? You are bold." Seeing her fearless appearance, the emperor asked casually, "What do you have to say?"

Yingrui still straightened her back: "Return to the emperor, everything is done by slaves, slaves have nothing to say!"
