Chapter 406 Making a scene with Jing Ningxuan
Xia Jingyan frowned and looked at Wen Qiu, the maid lying on the ground: "I guess it will be delayed if the imperial doctor calls again. It's better for the working princess to show her. After all, she is the slave of the Jade Concubine. In case something happens, it's hard to say."
Mu Qingya had this intention, so she did not shirk it. She called the two maids of honor to turn over Wen Qiu lying on the ground, wipe her wrists clean, and then let Mu Qingya come forward to take her pulse.
Looking at her movements, Shen Ningyu's fingers tightened slightly, with obvious worry in her eyes.
For a long time, Mu Qingya wiped her fingers slightly and got up and said, "It's not a big deal, but it's just that she was shocked and injured her internal body. If you take good care of yourself, you won't leave any symptoms."
Shen Ningyu breathed a sigh of relief. When she heard that Wen Qiu had nothing to do, she relaxed and her thoughts gradually became clear. This matter must have been designed by someone, otherwise Wen Qiu could not have a sudden accident. Moreover, Xia Jingyan's proposal was too sudden. Originally, she was talking to her, but why did she suddenly propose it? If you want to see Mu Qingya, there must be Xia Jingyan's handwriting in this. Even if it is not her master, there must be her indulgence and participation. After all, she is now the whole harem of the ruler of Canglan. What can escape her eyes?
"Princess, Liang Yi's slave just said that Wen Qiu suddenly went crazy. I don't know what reason you have found?"
Mu Qingya handed the silk handkerchief that had wiped her fingers to the maid beside her and turned her head to look at Liang Yi on the ground: "This is going to ask this slave."
Shen Ningyu's eyebrows tightened, her sharp eyes flashed, and she did not hesitate to scold: "Liang Yi, I have always taken you well. I didn't expect you to dare to kill Wen Qiu. You know, without her plea, I would not have saved you."
Liang Yi's face was full of panic and looked up at Xia Jingyan: "I don't have... Imperial Noble Concubine, do you say something for me?"
Xia Jingyan's face changed: "Bold slave, what are you talking about? I'm in charge of the palace affairs of the harem. Naturally, everything will be handled impartially. How can I speak for you as a slave?"
Liang Yi's face became more and more panicked.
There was another announcement at the door.
"The second prince arrived, the third prince arrived, Princess Mingli arrived."
Mu Qingya's expression moved, turned her head and saw Mo Junqing, who was walking slightly fast, and her heart was slightly warm: I think he was worried about himself, so he left Jing Ningxuan and quickly came back.
Duanmu Lingyu on the side moved his eyes slightly, glanced at Mo Junqing, and hummed coldly in his heart. It seemed that what the dark guard said was true. Mo Junqing was really affectionate to Qingya, but with himself, he would never have a chance.
Seeing Mo Junqing come in, Xia Jingyan's expression moved and a trace of unnaturalness flashed on his face. Shouldn't Mo Junqing be in Jingningxuan? How can... Has Mu Qingya already noticed her plan? If so, then your wish will come true.
Duanmu Mingli took the lead in saying, "I have met the imperial concubine and the jade concubine. I just met the prince of Li and the prince Chun outside the door. Thinking about something to discuss with Qingya, I came over together. I didn't expect that the two empresses were also there."
Xia Jingyan's heart moved: "Really, it's a coincidence. I don't know what's wrong with the princess looking for the princess?"
Dangmu Mingli lowered her head slightly, and her face turned red. She looked at Mo Junqing with some embarrassment and walked forward two steps to Xia Jingyan, with a shy voice: "Mother, this..."
She showed a shy look of her daughter's family. Xia Jing smiled clearly and joked, "I think it's for your wedding. Some time ago, I heard that you asked Qingya about embroidery skills."
Duanmu Mingli's eyes turned: "Mother, what's wrong with these slaves? Ah...isn't that Aunt Wenqiu?"
Seeing Duanmu Mingli's eyes, Shen Ningyu snorted coldly: "It's not these slaves who faked the orders of my palace and persecute the maids around me. I really don't know who gave them the courage!"
Xia Jingyan's expression softened: "Yes, I didn't expect these slaves to be so bold. Yufei, take care of them."
Shen Ningyu smiled and her face remained calm, but her heart was very sarcastic. A group of slaves suddenly broke into a princess's palace. Can they be finished by dealing with these people? Unexpectedly, Xia Jingyan wanted to carry this burden, which was really easy to calculate: "Mother, how can I interfere in the things in the palace and let the emperor know? I must blame my concubine for being ignorant."
Xia Jingyan's eyes narrowed slightly: "What's the matter? It's Du Yuexuan's slave, and naturally it's up to my sister."
Shen Ningyu smiled and turned her head to look at Mu Qingya: "After all, this matter is related to the princess. What do you think, princess?"
Mu Qingya glanced at Liang Yi, who bowed his head and knelt down, and had an idea in her heart: "Yufei, this matter seems simple, but if you think about it carefully, there must be someone else involved. I don't believe that this group of slaves have such courage, so I'd better interrogate it and know who is so bold. Dare to make waves in the harem managed by the imperial concubine. That's what the Imperial Concubine means, right?
Xia Jingyan's face tightened, and Mu Qingya held her flag. Naturally, she could not open her mouth to object, otherwise I'm afraid it would make people suspicious, not to mention the second prince and the third prince here.
"What the princess said makes sense, but if they dare to do such a thing, I'm afraid they will confess their lives. How can they tell the truth?"
Mu Qingya smiled and said, "Everyone has spread the evil of the country. I still know some of the methods of interrogating people. If they don't say anything, they will interrogate them one by one. People will pull out and beat the slave until he tells the truth." The slender fingers moved slightly, and a trembling slave in the far corner was pointed out by Mu Qingya.
When the maid at the door heard her words, he immediately went over and pulled the eunuch up.
Xia Jingyan frowned, but finally did not stop him.
On the contrary, Mo Junwei's tone was strangely sarcastic: "The princess is a good means to even interrogators."
Mu Qingya's smile remained unchanged, but she didn't say anything. She just looked at the eunuch who was beaten to cry and howl outside the door, and her heart tightened.
If possible, she doesn't want to use such a means, but she can't shrink back under the urgency of the current situation.
Soon, the beaten eunuch fainted.
Mu Qingya's eyes moved, raised her fingers, nodded in the center of the group of kneeling slaves, and once again pointed out a person casually: "That...Yes, it's the slave out and continue to interrogate."
After a while, the slave fainted again.
Mu Qingya pointed to a slave again: "Choose him this time. If they don't confess, they will kill him directly and report it to me."
With Mu Qingya's movements, a group of nervous slaves trembled more and more. Some people even cried and kept kowtowed for mercy, saying that they didn't know anything.
Everyone paid no attention to it.
Looking at Mu Qingya's smiling but particularly indifferent appearance, Liang Yi's heart trembled. This time, he could not be excused, let alone any mistakes, because he had a person in his heart that he did not want to hurt until death.
"Princess, this matter has nothing to do with others. If the county is mainly interrogated, interrogate the slaves!"
Looking at Liang Yi with firm eyes, Mu Qingya's thoughts in her heart became more and more firm. If she wants to see a person's character, the first thing to look at is a person's eyes. Although Liang Yi in front of him seems to have betray his master, his eyes are too upright to look like a cunning person.
Mu Qingya looked down and said, "Oh, do you have something to say?"
Liang Yi kowtowed a few times again: "I have nothing to say."
Mu Qingya frowned and looked at him with her eyes: "What a bold slave, are you kidding me? Come on, drag him out and beat him with a twenty-scepter.
"Yes."
Hearing Mu Qingya's order, Liang Yi looked up at Mu Qingya, and a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes. This time, Xia Jingyan's people found him and forced him to do it. Originally, he refused to agree, but in the next few days, he actually found that others had been bought and poisoned the jade concubine's diet. Such a thing How can I stand it?
No one knows that his father was originally a royal doctor in the palace, and he was framed to death because he offended the imperial concubine, and he was framed into the palace as an eunuch. If the jade concubine hadn't rescued him, he would have died long ago. Therefore, the jade concubine is his most grateful person, so it was investigated in the jade concubine's meal. After the poisoner was Xia Jingyan, she made up her mind to pull her down from the throne of the imperial concubine no matter what the price was!
In order to do this, he must not act easily, so he secretly agreed to Xia Jingyan and wanted to find an opportunity to start. Recently, Mu Qingya, who has been in the limelight, is the best candidate, because the princess is wise and his means are even more superb. As far as he knows, Xia Jingyan has not won anything in her hands. The advantage is that he has today's action at will.
Liang Yi was pulled out, and the stick fell down one by one. When he hit about ten court sticks, Mu Qingya suddenly stopped: "Wait a minute, let's see what fell from his skirt?"
Liang Yi looked panicked and suddenly stood up to pick up the cloth bag that fell on the ground, but was stopped by the eunuch beside him.
Le Qi hurried forward and took the cloth bag and handed it to Mu Qingya.
Seeing the cloth used in the cloth bag, Xia Jingyan, who was sure that Liang Yi did not dare to talk nonsense, suddenly changed his expression and looked at Liang Yi like a knife. How could this cloth get into the hands of this slave?
"This material is very special," Mu Qingya said. She opened the cloth bag and took out a paper bag hidden in it. As soon as she smelled it, her expression immediately changed greatly. She suddenly stood up and put the cloth bag on the table. "Come on, go to see the emperor and say that someone has committed trouble and wants to poison the royal family. "
