Chapter 266 Forced to die

When Prince Zhao returned to the college, he brought a shocking news: Eou Liu and the disfavored and favored concubine were brought to the Department of Punishment for torture!

The beggar asked in a daze, "Who made the order?"

Zhao Qian replied, "The mother said that the two of them were involved in the burning death of Empress Xue in the cold palace a few years ago. There was something strange and could not be tried, so she wanted to force a confession."

The beggar covered the heart that was about to jump out of his chest and asked Zhao Qian, "Can you take me to the Department of Criminal Justice?"

Zhao Qian looked at her incredulously: "What are you going to do there? You are pregnant with a child. It's so bloody and dirty that you can't go anyway!"

"Can you let Princess Yuan and Eun-eun-law come here together?" The beggar asked again.

Zhao Qian frowned and said, "No, my mother said it was a matter in the harem! It's not convenient for me to interfere."

The beggar's mind is spinning rapidly. What should he do? She said, "Then why don't you ask Queen Li to come here?"

"I'm curious. Isn't it good for you to take good care of your fetus? What are you doing with those things?" Zhao Qian couldn't understand.

The beggar couldn't talk to him and said urgently, "It's just that you don't let me go. I'll listen all the way!"

Zhao Qian had no choice but to say, "Wait here. I'll beg my mother and come here!"

Zhao Qian has gone. The beggar said to Nangong, "Do you think there is a turning point in this matter?"

"Maybe it has been dealt with. If you don't go to the queen, the queen will come to you!" Nangong Zhili snorted contemptuously, "Are those two people... who can withstand the heavy punishment?"

The beggar was disheartened. Not long after, Zhao Qian came back and said to the beggar, "Aunt Liu was killed, and the concubine Yuan was given wine!"

The beggar hasn't come to his senses yet. Zhao Qian said again, "They have recruited, and they have more to die. In the cold palace, Queen Xue broke the adultery between Princess Yuan and Eunuch Liu and was pushed into the lake. Unexpectedly, she didn't drown. They ordered her house and burned her to death..."

The beggar said in horror, "That's all? Is there anything else?"

"When it comes to the Department of Criminal Justice, how can there be no secret that can't be dug out?" Prince Zhao said, "When they came up with these, their minds were already unclear. As for what will be said later, it's all indisputable and skeptical. Anyway, I don't believe it!"

"What's the talk about?" The beggar asked quickly.

Zhao Qian smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it."

"I love to listen to absurd stories. Tell me!" Beggets are entangled.

Zhao Qian said jokingly, "They basically have the same moves. They said that they pushed Xue down the pond and originally sank to the bottom. Suddenly, a young version of Xue Hou crawled out. Except for the large area of marks on his forehead disappeared, almost all the others were carved out of the same mold, but the aura and feeling changed! Later, a very handsome man in black appeared and took the young Queen Xue away! They said that the young Queen Xue looked like you!"

The beggar sweated coldly and said with a forced smile, "What about the man in black? Is it similar to you?"

"You really think." Zhao Qian said, "Man in black, they said that there are three points like a young version of a magic doctor!"

The beggar's face changed for a long time before laughing, "It's really interesting! I'm like the young version of Xue Hou, and the magic doctor is like the old version of the black knight... It's so funny! Is this a cross-age legend?"

Zhao Qian also laughed: "Yes. I guess in the end, the soul came out of the body and the illusion made me talk nonsense.

The beggar asked, "What does your mother think of this?" Where's the emperor?"

"They didn't say anything." Zhao Qiandao.

What I'm afraid of is that I didn't say anything. What has been said can still be prevented and responded to in time. If you don't say anything, you can't tell whether you believe it or not, which makes people guess uncertain and uneasy.

Just as he was about to say something else, Zhao Qian said, "What did your mother say? She said that at the moment I first saw you, she thought when Queen Xue came out with a little sister!"

The beggar smiled with a stiff face and said, "Is it so similar? Have you ever seen Queen Xue?

Zhao Qian shook his head and said, "When she entered the cold palace, I was still young and didn't remember anything. When she grew up, she has been forgotten, and I can't go to the cold palace at will.

"Have you ever seen her portrait or something? Doesn't every queen have to have the most realistic portrait? The beggar asked.

"There is one, but I heard that the blue birthmark on her face made her appearance too ugly, and later she was put into a cold palace, and the portrait naturally could not be passed on. Later, the portrait was inadvertently lost. Zhao Qiandao.

The question in the beggar's heart has landed. Among this generation, Dongfang, Prince Zhao, Princess Su Kou and others are so close to the royal family, but they don't know what Queen Xue looks like. However, why did Nangong Zhili know that she is very similar to Queen Xue and suspects that she is fake? It must be to find the so-called domineering picture and steal the portrait of Empress Xue, so as not to find the wrong person when coercing her to hand it over in the future.

Thinking of this, the beggar looked at Nangong Zhili, and it happened that he was also looking at her with a smile. It's even more tacit.

When Zhao Qian saw that the two laughed mysteriously, he asked, "What are you laughing about?"

The beggar said, "I remember what you just said. I'm like the young version of Queen Xue, and the magic doctor is like the old knight in black. I can't help laughing when I look at it again and compare it!"

A smile also gushed out in Nangong Zhili's eyes.

The beggar suddenly asked Zhao Qian, "That's right! Why was Queen Xue put into the cold palace? I guess she should be a weak and kind person, not because of jealousy or murder, right?

Zhao Qian seemed to be lost in thought and muttered, "Probably because of me."

"Ah?" The beggar opened his eyes wide and said, "Because of you?"

Zhao Qian said, "From the time my mother conceived me, until I was two or three years old, I always had some strange diseases. Later, the gossip teacher said that someone collided with my fate and needed to die or be imprisoned in the cold palace for life to protect my safety. This person is the former queen. Sure enough, after I heard that after Xue lived in the cold palace, I gradually recovered.

After saying that, Youyou sighed: "In the final analysis, I owe gratitude to Xue Hou. From a certain perspective, I am inexplicably sorry and grateful to her.

After listening to this, the beggar's mind trembled keenly. Thinking of Zhao Qian's evil feelings for himself, is this the legendary "debt that must be repaid"?

In fact, the beggar also knows those skills in the harem. It is not difficult to guess that it is just a small means for Empress Li to give birth to a son and compete for the throne. In addition, when she meets a man like Zhao Yuan, she likes the new and hates the old. Why does Queen Xue, who loves a person and has an ugly appearance and has never even had a round room before, compete for favor and protection of status?

Poor and simple Xue Qianjin became a victim of being trampled. The beggar sighed deeply.

Zhao Qian said anxiously, "What's wrong? You are also sighing for her, aren't you?"

"It's all over." The beggar shook his head and said softly.

Zhao Qian smiled affectionately at her.

Nangong Zhili, who was listening to their conversation, suddenly looked solemn and assumed for the first time: "It may not be possible for that Princess Yuan and Eunuch Liu to say it."

Beggar and Zhao Qian were stunned by this at the same time: "What?!"

Nangong Zhili said leisurely, "Just imagine that Xue Hou is the daughter of former General Xue, and not to mention that General Xue may have left her a shocking treasure. He only said that the general treated soldiers like his own children all his life and was very loved. After his death, his daughter entered the cold palace. Many people must be willing to risk their lives to save her. Come on. Maybe Xue Qianjin has already been rescued from the cold palace, living plainly in a corner, getting married and having children, and the cold palace is just a similar substitute. Then Xue didn't leave the house all day long, and Mr. Liu Gongba, who delivered food, had to go into the house to ask for the bad luck. Every time he left the rice bowl at the door and left, so no one knew that Queen Xue had lost her bag! As for later, or this substitute drowned, the black knight brought Xue Qianjin's descendants. The pair of wild mandarin ducks who showed their adultery looked away in panic and mistakenly thought that it was Queen Xue's rebirth, or the substitute would dive, deliberately sink down and surfaced, and finally were taken away by the chivalrous man..."

What does the beggar's eyes suddenly open? Do you think she died slowly?!

Zhao Qian was deeply touched and clapped his hands and said, "The magic doctor is the best reasoning master I have ever seen! I'll tell my father and mother about this possibility!"

The beggar took a cold breath and pointed to Nangong Zhili and couldn't speak: "You... Are you going to inspire the emperor to suspect that I am a descendant of the Xue family?"

Nangong smiled and said, "What's the matter? Zhao Yuan is suspicious, but there is no evidence!"

The beggar thought for a long time and asked, "You just want all kinds of chaos, right?"

Nangong's eyes were colder than the ice and snow outside. He said without emotion, "Princess Liu is dead. If the emperor has no doubt about you, then you will be peaceful. As soon as you are peaceful, the palace will be relatively peaceful. This won't work."

"If you make trouble like this, aren't you afraid that Zhao Yuan will suspect you and say that you have ulicious intentions?"

Nangong Zhili smiled leisurely and said, "Don't worry. With such meticulous reasoning, how can the prince let go of his merit?

"You mean that the prince will not mention you, but directly treat it as his own conjecture and tell it to the emperor? To get the emperor's praise?" The beggar asked in shock.

Nangong Zhili nodded and said, "For the smooth delivery of your fetus, he will definitely seize the opportunity to perform well soon, because his father is happy with him, and it is more likely to recognize you as a daughter-in-law."
