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

Chapter 515: Many Traps (5)
Although Qingchen didn't know why Leng Zhaoyi said such a thing, and didn't know if there was a bigger conspiracy waiting for him behind it, but no matter what, as long as Xiao Jun believed that he and Xiao Jue were right Honestly, other crises are not so scary to her.

The moment he knelt down, tears were streaming down his face, Qingchen grabbed the corner of the emperor's clothes choked with sobs, raised his tearful eyes and pleaded: "Your Majesty, my concubines dare not lie, even if the emperor doesn't believe in my concubines, can you tell me if you can accept me?" A few words? If the concubine really has an affair with His Highness, how could His Highness openly choreograph such a dance and present it? Is it because he is afraid that others will not know that we have an affair? Besides, the little maid next to Lin Wanyi, on New Year's Eve, she Is it not worthy of people's doubts to go to the plum garden alone to do something without serving the master?"

Lian Qing hastily explained: "Your Majesty, the reason why this servant girl went to the plum garden that night was because she happened to want to break a few plum blossoms to put in the vase, and unintentionally broke the scandal between the prince and Concubine Rong. What this servant girl said was the truth , never dare to deceive even half a sentence."

Xiao Jue also knelt down and said calmly at this time: "Brother Emperor, I also have a few words to say. On New Year's Eve last year, I did go to Xiangxue Garden to pick some plum blossoms for my ancestors. Lady Zhaoyi, but it was at night, and the dim light in the plum garden was not good. If it hadn’t been for this little court lady’s testimony, I wouldn’t have known that the person who followed Leng Zhaoyi was the nobleman Wan at that time. It was supposed to be accompanied by the maids of the Empress Zhaoyi who came to admire the plum blossoms, so I didn't pay attention. I never thought that after such a long time, I would be accused of having an affair with the empress, my brother is really wronged."

Xiao Jun asked in a cold voice, "Then why did Mei Xue Jinghong's dance come about?"

Xiao Jue sighed and said: "I originally thought this incident was a coincidence, but now it seems that someone did it deliberately. A few days ago, I passed by the imperial garden and saw a dancer practicing dance. The younger brother saw that she danced well, but he always felt that something was missing, so he stopped and looked at her for a while curiously.

The dancer girl asked my younger brother for guidance. My younger brother had seen too many dances in the place of fireworks. He suddenly heard her say that the name of this dance was Mei Xue Jinghong, and he felt that the artistic conception was very good. Worrying about not knowing what gifts to give to the emperor and the empress, I thought that if this was the case, then it would be good to arrange a song and dance, and let the emperor smile. If you really have an affair with your empress, how can you explain the blade on the wooden frame?It is clear that someone wanted to kill the empress, and when the first plan failed, they came up with another plan. The intentions were so vicious that this man, my younger brother, couldn't help being frightened. "

Regardless of whether what Lian Qing said is true or not, Lin Wanyi doesn't want to involve herself in this matter, especially when the emperor is furious, she might be rejected by the emperor even more. In order to clear up the suspicion, she hurriedly came out and knelt down: "Your Majesty, Lian The concubine didn't know what Qing said, this girl was only transferred to the concubine's palace for a few days, I didn't expect to have such courage, if I knew this, the concubine would not want her!"

Then he turned to Lianqing and sternly reprimanded: "It's fine if you die yourself, don't implicate me, let others think that I ordered you to frame Concubine Rong Gui."

She said it so bluntly, but it really caught the suspicion of some people.Just now when Lianqing came out and said such a thing, even Qingchen doubted whether this was a series of tricks set up by someone. Since she was someone close to Lin Wanyi, he naturally had something to do with her, but now she was in a panic. It looks like she kind of believes her.Perhaps it was not a coincidence that Lianqing was transferred to Lin Wanyi's side at this time.

But Lianqing still refused to change her words, pointing at Xiao Jue and said: "You are all lying, you have colluded to deceive the emperor, and that night in the plum forest, only the prince and concubine Rong Gui were there, and the slaves saw them doing it with their own eyes. Afterwards, Ronggui concubine and concubine left first, His Royal Highness found the servant, and almost wanted to kill the servant to silence her, if the servant hadn't begged and promised not to say anything, His Highness would definitely not have kept the servant alive."

Leng Zhaoyi laughed and said: "You said we were in collusion to lie, did you mean that we knew in advance that you would come out at today's banquet to expose Concubine Rong Gui and the Crown Prince? If that's true, you are just a little maidservant, No matter who among us, you can easily execute you if you just make a mistake, why do you have to leave this trouble to come out today to add trouble to us! You must be able to justify your lies, otherwise your sinister intentions will be destroyed. to be exposed."

This is very good, but she is just a little maid, if she knows that she has such bad intentions, no matter whether it is Xiao Jue or Qingchen, they can deal with her quietly, and they will never keep her until now, let her be in front of the public Put yourself in such an embarrassing situation.

Xiao Jun asked Leng Zhaoyi abruptly at this time, "On New Year's Eve last year, a plum branch scratched one sleeve of the court dress worn by the crown prince. Which one is it? Since you have met him, you must always have an impression. "

Leng Zhaoyi's expression remained unchanged, and he thought about it carefully and said: "The emperor forgives the sin. When the concubine and the noble concubine met His Highness in the plum garden, His Highness was wearing a moon-white cloud brocade uniform with dark bamboo leaves. He didn't wear any court clothes, and he didn't remember which sleeve he scratched. At that time, the concubine asked the concubine why His Highness was going to attend the palace banquet but didn't wear court clothes. The concubine said that the emperor spoiled him. I'm used to the rules. If it wasn't for the empress asking at the time, the concubine really wouldn't be able to remember so clearly."

After Leng Zhaoyi's words, Qingchen looked closely at the emperor's expression and seemed to have softened a lot, and knew that the emperor's words just now were intentionally probing. Wearing a dress, what the emperor said was true. If Leng Zhaoyi hadn't met Xiao Jue that night, even if there was a half sentence of prevarication, or he guessed and replied in a hurry, the emperor would never believe what she said before. said those words.

At this point, Lianqing's situation is completely gone, but Hao Shuyuan sneered unwillingly: "I haven't seen any relationship between Leng Zhaoyi and your concubine before, so it's a strange thing that they suddenly meet up to appreciate plum blossoms!"

Leng Zhaoyi said indifferently: "When the empress was still a noble person, she lived in a secluded place and never interacted with others easily, and the concubines just liked the quietness and docileness of the empress, so they asked her to go with her when they met, why do you have doubts about this? "

Without waiting for Hao Shuyuan to answer, Qingchen also said with deep meaning: "Yes, when my concubine was a nobleman, even if I met all the sisters on the road, there were very few people who would talk to my concubine, let alone like today. Becoming the target of public criticism, I will never give up until I put my concubine to death. Even Leng Zhaoyi treats me differently now, and I feel quite lamented that people's hearts are changeable."
