Splendid concubine

Chapter 292 Innocent
The third prince came over, only to find that that person was just deceiving himself, where is there any water and food?I can't help but want to scold people, but thinking about being in a prison, I still endured it, bored, just treat him as a bunch of little bastards to make fun of him, after he goes out, he must set a fire, let these see Those who did not go to him were turned into ashes, and were scattered by the wind.

The imagination was wonderful, but it was already evening, and no one came to deliver the food, so the third prince couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to knock on the iron railing, asking why he didn't come to deliver the food?

A jailer yelled loudly: "You thought you were the prince, but now you are just a prisoner, and you still want to eat? Eat you big-headed ghost."

The third prince has always claimed to be personable, when did he meet such a rude person?

Forcibly suppressing his anger, he sorted out the matter carefully from beginning to end.

It was Liu Ruyi who exposed him in person, and it was Liu Ruyi who caused the incident to break out.

What about behind?Who is behind it?Maybe everyone thought that she was going to poison the concubine, but why did he poison the concubine, but why did he poison the concubine?He is not familiar with the empress dowager at all.

The empress dowager was rescued from the ground, and he knew for the first time that the empress dowager was not the emperor's biological mother.

According to this reasoning, she and the empress dowager have neither conflicting interests nor overlap, so how could she harm the empress dowager?It's just that he is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After going through all the brothers in his mind, the third prince finally selected the prince and fourth prince.

The Fourth Prince had some enmity with him, but on the day when the incident happened, the Prince accompanied Liu Ruyi to the House of Internal Affairs.The most important thing is that once the empress dowager dies, the empress dowager should benefit the most.

After thinking about it in his heart, the third prince stood up and shouted loudly to the outside: "I want to see my father, and I want to admit my crime."

The jailers were waiting for this sentence, and when they heard it, they quickly sent someone to report to the emperor, and soon the emperor's reply came back, and the third prince was escorted to the upper study.

As soon as he entered the upper study room, the third prince knelt down on the ground.

"Royal Father." He just called out "Royal Father" when he was kicked over by the Emperor.

But the third prince endured, did not say any excuses, and let the emperor kick and beat him all the time.

After a long time, the emperor finally stopped punching and kicking, looked at him, and shouted sharply: "Explain clearly to me, explain. Don't you want to explain?"

The third prince made a neat salute: "Father, mother and concubine have guaranteed their innocence with their lives, and they are willing to prove their innocence with death. There is nothing wrong with the son and the concubine, but the son is in charge of internal affairs." It’s too ridiculous to go back to my son.”

As he said that, he drew out the knife on the wall and laid it across his neck.

The emperor saw that his attitude was firm, yes, he believed it somewhat, and couldn't help thinking in his mind, what the third prince said was right, so who on earth wanted the third prince to take the blame?Who wants to harm the concubine?

"Take the third prince to the mourning hall." The emperor ordered, and the third prince bowed and exited from the upper study, and then burst into tears.

No matter who framed him, he was at odds with that person.

Because of this incident, the mother and concubine, who had always been unhappy, committed suicide.

Although the concubine mother's suicide was only partly related to this matter, the main reason was that the concubine mother's daily life was unsatisfactory, and she had long wanted to die.Then he will not let the person who framed him go.

Thinking of this, the Third Prince clenched his fists tightly.

Because his family was from the Duke's Mansion, even though he was in decline, his arrogance did not fall, which gave the third prince the confidence to fight for the throne.

Hurrying to the mourning hall, the third prince knelt down on the ground, crying loudly.

Countless words that his mother and concubine had said to him flashed through his mind, and they all came together in one sentence, you want to be the emperor.

After crying, the third prince wiped away his tears, turned around and went back to the study in the palace.

Just now in the mourning hall, he was more and more sure that it was the fourth prince who did it.

The fourth prince has always liked to run behind the prince, but he also has his own selfishness, not entirely for the prince's use, but for the empress dowager.

The Fourth Prince has been very active recently for some reason.

The one in the palace who wants to get rid of the concubine the most is the empress dowager.

He was very sure that the Ministry of Internal Affairs was all his own.But the fourth prince has been to the House of Internal Affairs several times in the past few months. Although he looks well-behaved every time, the people he brought help the fourth prince choose spices.

In this way, it seems that the fourth prince did it himself, which is very stupid.

In fact, it is not the case, but he is playing tricks, the more he is like this, the less likely he is to be suspected. , the fourth prince himself is very suspicious, thinking that everyone else is just like him.

The third prince sneered, and ruthlessly pressed an inkstone on the table.

The table left its position with a bang, and the third prince walked down to the secret room under the study.

This was built for him when the concubine mother was alive.

There are not many things in the secret room, and there are small wooden boxes densely packed.

Following the labels on the wooden box, the third prince found the one belonging to the fourth prince, opened it and examined it carefully.

This is so many years, his analysis of everyone's impression and evidence handle.

It was enough to bring down the fourth prince with these, and the third prince showed a malicious smile on his face.

Originally, he didn't want to do anything to the fourth prince so early, it was because the fourth prince forced him.

However, Liu Ruyi, who exposed this incident and caused the death of his mother and concubine, could not let it go.

The third prince stroked for a while, then opened the box that belonged to Liu Ruyi.

There were not many pieces of paper in the box, but each piece was collected recently, and on it, the third prince was terrified.

Originally, the concubine mother said that she wanted to win over the Princess Anping.Now that his mother and concubine are dead, he and Princess Anping are mortal enemies, but the third prince feels that for his great goal, it is okay to pretend to be a snake.

Having figured this out, the third prince went straight to the Red Sandalwood Palace after he came out of the study.

Liu Ruyi was basking in the sun in the courtyard of the Red Sandalwood Palace. After hearing the third prince begging to see her, she was a little surprised, but she went anyway.

Seeing that the third prince was wearing a filial piety, even though he knew it was mainly because his mother and concubine couldn't think about it, she still felt a little guilty.

The third prince laughed dryly twice, and Liu Ruyi asked: "I don't know, what is the third prince looking for?"

The third prince suddenly fell to his knees: "I haven't met Princess Anping very much before. Although I yearn for it in my heart, I don't dare to hand over the etiquette. This time I have encountered a sudden disaster. I am even more unworthy in terms of status. I want to make friends with you. I came here this time to explain clearly to the princess that the concubine concubine’s spices were not manipulated by me. Although I am in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is the most mixed-up of dragons and snakes.”

After talking about the third prince, he stood up and took his leave. He came here just to take advantage of Liu Ruyi's guilt.

If he didn't come, even though Liu Ruyi felt guilty, she didn't tell him this to his face. He felt guilty so much. His red and swollen eyes and his white filial piety were enough to make people feel guilty.

Liu Ruyi really felt guilty.

After taking the third prince away, she calmed down and thought that the third prince did not do this, someone must have blamed him.

Fortunately, the concubine found out in time and rescued her. Now she is alive and well, and she even fought several rounds with her yesterday.

Thinking of this, Liu Ruyi stopped basking in the sun, got up and went to the House of Internal Affairs.

"That is to say, you don't have anyone guarding the spice area." Liu Ruyi carefully wrote down what the little eunuch said.

This was already the eighth eunuch she had questioned, but apart from proving the innocence of the third prince, there were no useful clues.

But when the emperor came up that day, the third prince clearly said that letting the little eunuch take the blame was the biggest stain.

Let's be anxious as the third prince, mistakenly thinking that something happened to him, no matter what happened, he just wanted the little eunuch to help him take the blame.

It gradually became complicated and confusing, Liu Ruyi scratched her head in distress, turned around and went to the shelves where the spices were placed, and checked carefully, but found nothing.

In the future, it is better to use less spices. The spices are too easy to manipulate. The superb spice craftsmanship can make the smell of the spices the same as before, but the ingredients inside have changed a lot.

Liu Ruyi had been standing on the spice shelf thinking, and when she came to her senses, it was already the climax of the moon.

Liu Ruyi yawned, just as she was about to leave, the House of Internal Affairs was empty, except for a few young eunuchs who were keeping watch at night.

Quietly, the huge warehouse is actually a bit infiltrating.

Just as she was about to go out, she suddenly heard the voices of two people talking. Liu Ruyi instinctively felt that her own interests were at stake, so she quickly bent down and listened secretly.

I only heard one of the voices say: "How much did she find out today? Will she find out about me? Our master asked me to ask questions in the middle of the night. It's not because that bitch stayed here for so long today."

"Keep your voice down, he's still in the warehouse!"

"I shouldn't be able to hear it, the wall is so thick."

"Just in case, I'm risking beheading to exchange news with you."

"Don't say that, isn't it enough for you to take our master's money?"

"That Miki, how is he? What did the Ministry of Internal Affairs say when he came back?"

"Oh, don't mention it, now the third prince is looking at us with wariness, so he can only do it this time, if there are too many, we won't be able to do it."

The voice of speaking gradually went away, and Liu Ruyi realized that she was already in a cold sweat, and her hands and feet were trembling.

During their conversation, that master was probably the real murderer.

But, who is this grandpa?

Because of their conversation just now, Liu Ruyi became vigilant.

At this time, I heard the outside door creak.

Liu Ruyi fell down quickly, pretending to have fallen asleep for a long time.

I only heard a voice, which seemed to be holding an oil lamp, and gradually approached.

I stood in the aisle and looked at her for a while, then walked away.

Liu Ruyi squinted her eyes hard, trying to see who it was. It was obvious that the eunuch who came to see if she was asleep at this time was the eunuch who was eating inside and outside.
