The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1258: Concubine Li's Dark Trick (6)
Gao Yong hurriedly waved his hand, and immediately someone turned up the two little eunuchs who were serving beside Rong'er. Chang Shun and Chang Yi accompanied Rong'er to kneel in the scorching sun for so long, their clothes were already soaked through. Now when he came in, he saw the empress's expression was sombre, and even trembling with fright, he hurriedly kowtowed, "Slave, see the emperor, see the empress."

How embarrassing it was, how embarrassing it was, the whole body was wet, as if someone had been drenched in water.

Qing Chen reprimanded in a deep voice: "You two are very poor, the Fifth Highness is young and ignorant, you don't persuade him, but let him cause such a big disaster, if the master is punished, you think, Can you escape?"

Hearing this, Chang Shun knocked down his forehead that had just been raised a little bit, touching the ground and pleading: "Empress Empress, it's not that the slave didn't persuade, but that the slave was incompetent and couldn't persuade the Fifth Highness.

Yesterday, a slave saw that His Highness was thinking like this, so he only advised him a few words, and then he punched and kicked him. It doesn't matter if the slave gets knocked down, but he was afraid that His Highness would cause trouble, so he told His Highness the matter The two masters.Unexpectedly, His Highness the Fifth Prince listened to the words of the two teachers on the surface, but turned around and beat the servant severely.

Today, His Royal Highness wanted to come out to play, but the servant tried to persuade him not to listen, but as soon as he arrived at the Royal Garden, he ran into Concubine Li, and His Highness repeated the same trick. The snake in the bag was bitten..."

Changshun's tone was a little choked up, but more of it was the sadness and helplessness of being a slave. Qingchen saw that the corners of his eyes were still bruised, and the corners of his mouth were cracked and hadn't scabbed over yet. From this point of view, what he said was true Maybe there will be more scars where you can't see it. With Rong'er's temperament, beating people is not measured.

It's not that Qingchen doesn't understand their difficulties, following such a master, it's a sin to persuade them or not, and there will be no good results anyway.

Although Chang Shun didn't dare to complain, his expression was filled with unspeakable misery. It wasn't that he didn't serve him wholeheartedly, but that the Fifth Prince was simply not a good listener.He was full of sadness, thinking that even if he was beaten half to death this time, he would be sent to work as a coolie in the labor bureau from now on, it would be much better than following that little Hades.

Seeing the despair in his eyes, Qingchen felt a little pity instead. On the other hand, Chang Yi, who knelt there for a long time without saying a word, just wobbled all over, as if extremely frightened, and there was no trace of empathy on his face. The scars show that this slave is extremely smooth in his daily errands, at least he knows how to follow Rong'er so as not to let himself suffer.

But often Rong'er's temperament is spoiled by these people who can only please and fawn.

Qingchen knew it well, so he stared at Changyi coldly, and asked sharply: "Changyi, who ordered you to harm His Highness the Fifth Highness? If you honestly tell the person behind the scenes, I can spare your life, otherwise , you have to weigh the consequences yourself."

Beads of sweat on Changyi's forehead landed on the mirror-smooth water-polished marble tiles. He lay on the ground and did not dare to look up, but his whole body trembled even more, "Empress, I don't understand your It means that the servant is the person who is closely served by His Highness the Fifth Highness, how could he harm his master, and I beg the emperor and empress to see clearly."

Qingchen snorted coldly and said: "Your Highness the Fifth Highness usually won't put things far away. He caught that little snake yesterday and didn't enjoy it to the fullest. He will definitely hand it over to you for safekeeping. Then this brocade bag containing the little snake will go away again." Who of you kept it? Aren’t you telling the truth!”

After the queen stopped drinking, Chang Shun suddenly raised his head and looked at Chang Yi in disbelief, and said angrily, "Chang Yi, I never thought you would be such a person, even though His Highness Fifth Highness is naughty on weekdays, you are our master after all." , how can you do such a thing like eating inside and outside?"

Chang Yi panicked and said, "No, I didn't do it, I didn't let that poisonous snake go, I was wronged..."

Changshun looked at him with eyes that seemed to be able to spew out fire. Normally, he could not get used to Changyi's villainous appearance, but seeing him do such a thing now, he felt even more disdainful.

"You still have the nerve to complain? Last evening, when His Highness was having dinner, I saw him give you the brocade bag with the little snake in it for safekeeping. I wasn't the only one who saw this. The little girl has also seen it, and you still want to deny it?"

The more Chang Shun spoke, the more angry he became, and he even blamed him a little bit uncontrollably: "On weekdays you like to play around with His Highness's temper, and it's fine if you don't persuade him. Outsiders come to harm the master, what should you do!"

Chang Yi glanced at the crowd in a panic, and said to Chang Shun stubbornly: "What's wrong with me, shouldn't serving the master just make him happy? Don't think you're nagging because His Highness usually doesn't like you, Just keep this account on my head. Yesterday evening, His Highness indeed gave me the brocade bag containing the little snake, but I put the brocade bag in the small flower hall outside, and never I haven't touched it, and during this period, I don't know who moved it. Why do you insist that I did it? Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

Chang Shun clenched his fists angrily, gave him a hard sip, and cursed: "Do you still have the face to say that in order to please the master, you can disregard right and wrong? The people who serve beside the Fifth Highness, except for the two girls Besides, it's just you and me. Those two girls are usually very timid. How could they dare to touch poisonous snakes? You have entrapped your master to such an extent, and you can still frame others with a shameless face. The dog ate it."

Changyi was so scolded that he couldn't stand it, and blushed and asked back: "You have no evidence, why do you think I did it? I still think you did it. His Highness is very dissatisfied with you on weekdays. It is not impossible to say that you have had enough of the abuse, and want to take revenge on the master!"

The two were quarreling with each other, and the emperor shouted coldly: "Shut up, everyone!"

Qingchen's eyes swept across the faces of the two of them, carefully observing their expressions, and said lightly: "Actually, it is not a matter of trying to find out who put the poisonous snake into Rong'er's brocade bag." Difficult. Because I know that if you are not an experienced snake catcher, you will always be afraid of being bitten by a snake when you encounter a poisonous snake, so they will take various protective measures. The most direct way is to apply medicinal powder on your body to make the snake bite. Don't dare to approach.

Since Rong'er handed over the brocade bag to Changyi for your safekeeping, you will have to touch that brocade bag more than once, but you were not bitten by a snake, which already explains the problem.But I won't wrong you, I will ask the imperial doctor to verify whether you really did this later. "

After saying these words, Qingchen saw the corners of Chang Yi's mouth twitch twice, and his face lost all color in an instant, while Chang Shun on the side looked much calmer.
