The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 647 Gu Insect ([-])

Afterwards, the warm pavilion turned into a green pool, and Zhuo Lan's faint cry was the ripples caused by the occasional gravel being thrown into the lake.

There was no sound, and the Nuan Pavilion, which was burning with extremely intense charcoal fires, gradually became cold.

The chill penetrated through every hole, penetrating through Wanyan's slightly slack skin, piercing into her veins, causing her to shiver uncontrollably.

Not long after, Qingzhu's complexion was cramped, and his eyes flicked on Wanyu's body from time to time.

Her eyes were cloudy and uncertain, she quickly knelt on the ground and reported to the Queen Mother, the Emperor reported: "My Majesty, Queen Mother, the Changchun Palace and the Yongshou Palace have been searched, and the servants have found this thing."

Qingzhu winked at the palace man behind him, who was holding a silver platter filled with seven or eight jet-black grass roots clinging to Saturn.

The grass roots gave out a pungent stench, the Empress Dowager covered her nose and frowned in disgust, "What is it?"

Qing Zhu said: "I just showed it to Imperial Physician Chu, it is the 'Gu grass' used to feed Gu worms."

The emperor frowned when he heard the words: "How did the voodoo technique of the Yungui generation appear in the palace? Where did you find such a dangerous thing?"

Qingzhu was a little hard to say, and looked at the Queen Mother hesitantly.

The Empress Dowager waved her hands to make people quickly take down the Gu grass, and then asked: "The emperor asked you something, and you answered it."

Qingzhu made a promise, and said softly: "Back to the emperor, they were searched and suppressed in Changchun Palace!"

Hearing the words 'Changchun Palace', Wanyu should have been extremely shocked, but to her surprise, she has been in the palace for a long time, and it is not surprising that she was trapped for no reason. I also think it's normal.

She was extremely calm, and asked before everyone recovered, "Where can I find it in this palace?"

Qingzhu hurriedly said: "There is a small hole on the edge of the stove in the small kitchen, and this thing is hidden inside."

The things were found in the Changchun Palace, most of which proved Wannai's crime of poisoning Chen's parents by poisoning Chen's parents and blaming Zhuo Lan. Yinfeng gradually regained his confidence and raised his voice: "Imperial concubine, you are so courageous! You are in the palace!" This sorcery, murdering the courtiers and framing the Emperor Ama's favorite concubine, what should you do!?"

After he finished speaking, Zhuo Lan seemed to be playing a double reed with him, knelt down and kowtowed to Wanyu, crying sadly: "I know that I have offended the imperial concubine, it doesn't matter how the imperial concubine punishes the concubine. I just beg The noble concubine is kind and let Mr. Chen and his family go. The concubine was saved by Mr. Chen and has survived until now. She really regards his elders as the concubine's reborn parents. I killed myself and went under the Nine Springs, and I have no face to face them! Please be kind to the imperial concubine, please be kind to the imperial concubine!"

The sound of Zhuo Lan's kowtow echoed in her ears clearly, but she did not spare any effort, and every time she hit the ground, she almost knocked the floor tiles out of the gap.

The emperor couldn't bear it, and only ordered Yuanyuan to help Zhuo Lan up, and he sat on the chair by himself, rubbing a string of beeswax beads in his hand.

The Empress Dowager glanced at Wanyu, and wanted to help her out and said: "The servants of Changchun Palace rarely say a hundred people, and the small kitchen is not a forbidden place. It can be said that everyone in the palace can come and go freely, even if you find it in Changchun Palace. That dirty thing doesn't mean that the imperial concubine did it!" She slowly shifted her gaze to Zhuo Lan, spat out of thin air, and said calmly: "Look at Ai, if someone intentionally blames someone, he will always It's not difficult either."

After saying this, Zhuo Lan seemed to have been greatly wronged, she cried even more, she was almost out of breath, and wanted to hold back her breath: "Concubine, concubine has never done such a thing! The concubine swears that if the concubine does this, she will have her body divided by five horses, and after death, her body will be fed to wild dogs and wild pigs, and she will never be reborn!"

She swore such a vicious oath, coupled with her miserable appearance, it was hard for people to believe that she was not an innocent person in this matter.

Wannai glanced at her with disdain on her face, wiped her forehead with gold silk inlaid with sapphires that were slightly looser at her temples, and said coldly: "Concubine Jia, you'd better remember your poisonous oath today. You married Aixin The Jueluo family has to abide by the rules of our Manchus. The Manchus make an oath, but they don’t come here just like the Han people. The ancestors are all watching from the sky.”

With a bit of hatred in her eyes, Zhuo Lan said word by word: "What are you afraid of for what the concubine has never done? It is the imperial concubine, how dare you swear that you have never plotted against the concubine! Use the life of the ten elder brothers to enlighten you!" oath!"

Wan Lai was taken aback for a moment, but her heart tightened: "Concubine Jia is confused. How can you care about the life of the emperor's heir?"

"Your Majesty, don't you dare?" Zhuo Lan wiped away her tears and stood up with a smirk: "Of course you don't dare! Elder Brother Shi is your fate, what unconscionable things have you actually done, how dare you swear? "

Wan Lai looked at her with a smile, raised her eyebrows and shook her head.

Out of the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of the emperor standing up slowly, his steps were a little heavy, and he walked slowly in front of Wanyu.

His eyes radiated hesitation and pierced Wanyu's heart. He looked at each other for a while, and finally lifted Wanyu's chin with his right hand, and said coldly, "Is it you?"

Wan Lai stared blankly at him, looking at the man she once loved so much, she could see all kinds of doubts in his eyes.

Hot tears were uncontrollably forced from the bottom of my heart to the bottom of my eyes, gushing out instantly, like beads with broken threads.

The two just stared at each other silently, tears dripping down the line of the jawline onto the emperor's steady and powerful palm, merging with the sweat on his palm.

Wan Yu closed her eyes, tried her best to hold back the tears, then opened her eyes and stared at the emperor's dark pupils fearlessly: "Your Majesty thinks he is a concubine?"

He hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I hope it's not you."

Wan Yu's voice was dry, and she said word by word: "If the concubine says she is not a concubine, will the emperor believe it?"

His Majesty's lips and teeth were slightly parted, but the answer he didn't know was what he didn't say.

Wan Yu sneered: "Since the emperor doesn't believe it, what's the use of the concubines?" She glanced at Zhuo Lan and smiled even brighter: "Actually, whether this Gu weed was found today from the concubine's palace or the concubine's palace, Come on, the emperor must always be suspicious of the concubine, right? If you want to protect her, she is right. The concubine was also someone the emperor held in his palm before, and the concubine understands this truth."

The emperor's heart trembled, and guilt flooded his body wantonly.

He let go of the hand holding Wanyu's chin, couldn't help but take two steps back, shook his head and said, "I don't, how could I be such a person?"

Wan Yu straightened her face, and calmly said: "The emperor is suspicious of his concubine, and there must be real evidence, and it must be logically self-consistent. If it is said that the concubine tricked Chen Baoping and his wife in order to blame the concubine, then the concubine has such a good thing Why don't you just give it to the concubine Jia? Wouldn't it be more straightforward and save a lot of trouble? Besides, the position of the crown prince has been decided, and the elder brother next to him cannot be the heir apparent. Brother, Zuo is just a prince, so what can he threaten the concubine? Then the emperor thinks carefully, what is the purpose of the concubine holding on to the concubine right now?"
