Chapter 263

Li Wan sat on one side next to the old lady, and the empress sat on top, waiting for someone to bring Ziqing into the palace. Li Wan kept her eyes fixed on her, while the old lady held her hand, her eyes were cold, and she was smiling but didn't care. At the bottom of his eyes, Concubine De was talking to Mrs. Xia, but it was mostly Mrs. Concubine De who spoke, and Mrs. Xia listened.

It wasn't until it was reported from the outside that Zi Qing was here, and the hall quieted down. Everyone turned their eyes to the door. Zi Qing was supported by people on the left and right. Her makeup was pretty delicate and her clothes were neat, but Li Wan felt something was wrong. When she saluted, her center of gravity was unstable, her whole body trembled, her lips trembled up and down, and her eyes were full of fear.

The maid standing beside her was also surprised, she bowed her head and then nodded again when she squatted down, Li Wan thought for a moment, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

There are many ways to deal with people in the inner house, Li Wan understands that Zi Qing must have been tortured to extract a confession, the Yongping Marquis abused lynching for her, it is clear that they do not take the Ministry of Punishment seriously, Li Wan's eyebrows moved, and there is already a care in her heart However, her response to Xia Qingqing stopped because she would not say that Xia Qingqing and Ziqing were secretly colluding. If the Yongping Hou Mansion suspected Xia Qingqing, it would have nothing to do with her.

"Slave Ziqing pays respects to the empress!" Ziqing spoke intermittently, and the queen frowned. If Ziqing really bribed someone to do something against Miss Qiao, it was because she bribed someone to kill the family members of the imperial court official. In terms of this matter, it belongs to the Ministry of Punishment , Yongpinghou's mansion is like this, it's too rough.

Concubine De explained leisurely, "Empress Empress, my mother is also extremely angry. The servants below are the most ruthless. They probably secretly let her eat and cry. Please don't mind Empress Empress." After De Concubine said, Old Man Qiao The man pretended to be out of breath with anger, and the empress was embarrassed to speak after reminding her a few words, but Mrs. Ruo Qiao was really out of anger, and the scene became even more chaotic.

"Are you Ziqing?" The empress shouted loudly, and the hall fell silent. The empress was extremely trusted by the emperor in the palace. In the harem, the empress had no children, but the emperor respected her like a guest!Everything big and small will follow the rules of the palace. At that time, when he loved Liu Zhaoyi, the queen said that she had no heirs and could not live alone in the palace alone. After leaving the bedroom, the queen turned a blind eye and went.

Ziqing propped her hands on the ground, and replied heavily, "Slave is."

"Mrs. Qiao said that you spent 500 taels of silver to buy a few people pretending to be robbers to ruin Miss Qiao's reputation. Is there such a thing?" The Queen's voice was loud, and Li Wan cheered up. If it weren't for Xia Qingqing's support, Zi Qing would never have obeyed her.

Zi Qing hesitated a little, but still nodded, and the queen asked again, "Who is the person behind you?"

Li Wan was very calm, even if Xia Qingqing raised her hand and pointed at her tremblingly, Li Wan remained calm, Mrs. Qiao snorted coldly, "Mrs. Two, Mrs. Qin is really lucky."

With a similar tone, it is no wonder that Yuan Shi and her are aunts and nephews, with the same blood flowing in their bones, and the words they say are equally annoying.

"Mrs. Qin, what do you have to say now?" The queen's eyes shifted to her, and when she caught a glimpse of Mrs. Xia from the corner of her eye, her eyes softened slightly.

Li Wan got up and walked around Ziqing, as if muttering to herself, "It is indeed my dowry, Ziqing, I think you have difficulty moving, but someone threatened you? Don't be afraid, in front of the empress Please tell me, the empress will uphold justice for you."

Concubine De burst out laughing, still looking at Xia Shi, "The daughter-in-law you chose is really good. You threatened Ziqing openly and secretly not to talk nonsense, otherwise you will end up miserable. Others can hear the meaning hidden in her words. You are also a mother-in-law." Understand?"

Ziqing kowtowed her head twice, and said tremblingly, "Master, have you forgotten the money you gave to your servant? One time I met Miss Qiao on the road, and she sarcastically teased you that your family background is not worthy of Lord Marquis, you Hold a grudge and tell the servants to find ways to get revenge, have you forgotten?"

Li Wan's gaze was intriguing, and she raised her eyebrows slightly, "You said I was the murderer behind the scenes?"

"Isn't it?" Mrs. Qiao almost threw the crutch in her hand. Qiao Feifei's reputation has been ruined, and so has the reputation of the Yongping Hou Mansion. How could she bear this tone, her voice almost roared from her mouth Yes, gritted his teeth and glared at Li Wan.

The queen glanced at Li Wan, waiting to see Li Wan's performance. To be honest, she looked at Li Wan with admiration today. Before, she always felt that she was empty-handed. She didn't expect to speak without timidity. Mother's style.

Li Wan was not in a hurry, "I will not confront you because it will only embarrass me. Last time I sent you to serve in Li Mansion, why did you get sent out again? You said I ordered you, Ziqing, no matter what How, you can't avoid the betrayal, as for the slander, let's talk about it later."

"You said you were there when I quarreled with Miss Qiao because of my quarrel with Miss Qiao?" Li Wan raised her head, looked at Zi Qing seriously, and smiled, "Zi Qing, you said I Why are you bickering with Miss Qiao? Miss Qiao makes me envious that she is from the Yongping Hou Mansion after all, I have no worries about food and clothing now, why should I quarrel with her?"

Ziqing lowered her head, and said in a tone that her head was on the ground, or that half of her body was leaning on the ground weakly. Li Wan said softly, "Ziqing, when you speak, think carefully about what your next sentence will say. Once you complete a lie, you must use countless lies to complete it, so be careful not to get yourself involved."

Mrs. Qiao stood up, "What do you mean? Are you threatening her again?"

"Master, you asked you to give me 500 taels of silver. This servant still remembers clearly. This servant did not greedy you for a penny. It only cost 500 taels to hire someone. They said that things were done very well..." Zi Qing said very well. Slow down, everyone felt that Li Wan was trying to quibble.

If today's incident is true, Beiyanhoufu will not only give Yongpinghoufu an explanation, but Li Wan will also be dismissed.

Not only did Li Wan not feel worried, but instead she grinned, "Ziqing, do you know why I didn't send the most stable Zilan to serve but sent you? Because my mother wrote to me, saying that she ran into you and Together with an unclear man outside, my mother was worried that you would ruin my reputation, and said that she wanted to find a way to get you away. I thought of you serving me for a while, and then I thought of this way with my mother. , I am not interested or want to ask who you made friends with outside, but I bought people to deal with Qiao Feifei, Ziqing, I'm afraid you underestimated me too much."
