Chapter 147 zhi shen
Yao Yulu's voice became more and more choked. At this time, Lv Pengxiao brought the crescent moon. When the crescent moon saw Yang Cairen and Jinfei, she was immediately scared to retreat a few steps and quickly knelt down.
Li Qingxiao asked, "Are you a new moon?"
"I'm the maidservant." The new moon replied timidly and never dared to look up.
Yao Yulu knelt down and said, "Just say that the emperor will keep you free here."
New Moon dared to whisper: "That day, the maidservant accidentally bumped into Yang Cai and Concubine Jin talking in an uninhabited place in the imperial garden. The maidservant did not want to leave, but the maidservant around Yang Cairen found that the maidservant was taken to Yuemei Palace by Yang Cairen and gave a bag of powder to the maidservant and asked the maidservant to take the musk. Xiang was put into the little master's stove. If the maidservant refused, she said that she wanted the maidservant's life. The maidservant was really cowardly and had to agree at that time. When the maidservant returned to the Starlight Palace, she immediately told the little master, which did not cause a big disaster..."
What Xinyue said was exactly what Lv Fangxiao taught her when she went to look for her. After saying it carefully, she really didn't dare to look up. She could only kneel on the ground and wait for her next fate.
Li Qingxiao was slightly stunned. Although his face was still majestic, he was a little puzzled. He knew that there were often some quarrels between the concubines, but he didn't expect such an intolerable thing under his eyes. With coldness and doubt, he asked, "Yang Cairen, Jinfei, this Is what the maid said the truth?
Jinfei had lost her mind at this time. She thought that the plan was seamless, but she didn't expect the maid to be so useless. Thinking about it, she and Yang Cairen were too hasty to make such a mess. Her hands trembled slightly and accidentally dropped the teacup on the table to the ground, looking extremely panicked. .
Compared with Jinfei Yang Cairen, she is still a little calmer. Although there is a thin cold sweat on her forehead, she still knows in her heart that if she shows it now, it will only cause a big disaster. What's more, Yao Yulu can do with her without evidence?
"The emperor can't conclude the sins of his concubines just by the words of a maid of honor in the West Hall. My concubine and Jin are usually just friends of gentlemen, let alone to frame Xu Cairen together. The concubine and Xu Cairen lived in Yuemei Palace. Compared with Yao Guiren and Xu Cairen's acquaintance, how could they bear to cause Xu Cairen to lose their children? This is obviously Yao Guiren's own evil deeds, and he has to push it on his concubine.
Xiao Shufei saw that her people were being made so difficult, and she couldn't help saying, "Princess Jin's concubine understands. Please be careful and don't listen to one side."
"Your Majesty, if Yao Guiren framed Xu Cairen as Yang Cairen said, how could such an important thing be simply listened to by Yang Cairen? Obviously, it was deliberately framed. Yao Yujiao slowly paced forward. At this moment, she was very anxious but still unmoved.
"Yes, such a crooked wind and evil spirit can't be tolerated in the palace. How can the concubines live a peaceful life in the past?" Unexpectedly, this word came from Liu Feifei's mouth. Liu Feifei did hate Yao Yulu, but compared with Yao Yulu's imperial concubine who used to taout and insult her, she is really hateful. If she can take this opportunity to pull Xiao Shufei down the position of Shufei again, it is simply very gratifying!
The house is already in a mess. The concubines are defending each other for their own interests. The quarrel has been a mess. Only the queen has been sitting silently, but the dignified smile on her face has disappeared, but her eyebrows are full of solemnity.
Li Qingxiao's heart was even more depressed. Originally, Xu Cairen's loss of his child late at night had made him heartbroken, and he made such a difference in the third update of the night. He looked at his beloved concubines in the hall with different faces, and he couldn't help but feel even more anxious and sad, but Yao Yulu always knelt silently and didn't speak again. Li Qing Xiao said, "Don't say anything! Yao Guiren, what else do you have to say?
After listening to this, although the tears in Yao Yulu's eyes had not dissipated, there was a sneer at the corners of her mouth, but it was fleeting. The candlelight in the room hit her face, and the mottled light and shadow made it difficult to see her look, but she retreated a little and said, "Your Majesty, Yang Cairen and Xu Cairen are evil, and everyone in Yuemei Palace knows it. At this moment, I can only ask for a request. Since Yang Cairen believes that only the search of the palace can prove his innocence, please order the investigation of the south hall of Yuemei Palace, which will be known!"
Yang Cairen was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Yao Yulu to deal with herself in her own way. She was slightly stunned and said, "Your Majesty..."
Before she finished speaking, the queen interrupted her and said without hurry, "Yao Guiren's words are reasonable. Since Yao Guiren's West Hall has been searched, it is not rude to search the south hall of Yang Cairen. What does the emperor think?"
After saying that, the queen slowly looked back at Li Qingxiao, as if waiting for Li Qingxiao's answer.
Li Qingxiao nodded and said, "Let's do it this. If you can't find out today, don't leave for half a step." Li Qingxiao said that in the end, his expression became more and more awe-in, as if he had touched a string that must not be broken in his heart.
Yang Cairen and Concubine Jin didn't dare to talk anymore. Concubine Jin's face was full of fear, but Yang Cairen was much more stable. How could there be any musk in her hall? Even if she searched, she couldn't find anything. She held her head high and followed the people out of the hall, and there was no fear on her face.
This is the first time that Yao Yulu walked in the imperial city late at night. The dark red palace wall reflected a faint light and shadow under the moonlight. The leaves hung high and looked like the day. The coldness of the winter night was deep to the bone. As she walked all the way through the eternal alley, she felt a chill.
Walking all the way back to Yuemei Palace, the team was quiet. No one could hear any sound even with their footsteps. When they arrived at Yuemei Palace, Li Qingxiao specially told him not to disturb Xu Cairen and let her rest at ease, so he took a group into the South Hall.
The South Hall is no longer the scene of sunset defeat. Since Yang Cairen inexplicably welcomed the emperor's thoughts and repeatedly accepted the favor, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has cleverly added bricks and tiles to the South Hall. Although it has not been repaired, it is much more luxurious.
Everyone stood in the garden of the South Hall and felt that it was even colder. The cloak on his body could not cover the chill. Li Qingxiao's long figure reflected a long shadow in the moonlight. He stood with his hands behind his back for a moment before he sighed and said, "Searching for the palace!"
A group of bodyguards entered the South Hall, and the atmosphere in the garden was as quiet as before. Li Qingxiao's cold face couldn't help but make the people present full of fear. He accompanied him like a tiger. Li Qingxiao was so calm and his anger was so frightening.
Yang Cai held the handkerchief in his hand. Where would there be musk in her hall? But why are you so nervous? The sweat gradually flowed down, soaked her skirt, and stood up straight with no movement.
The pain in Yao Yulu's heart has not been reduced at all. Thinking of Xu Cairen's miserable appearance just now, her heart is more like a knife pain, but at this time, the remaining reason makes her hold on to her spirit. If these are not solved clearly, she is afraid that she will be difficult to protect herself, let alone avenge Xu Cairen.
Yao Yulu was very resentful. She hated why she was so stupid. Why did she find out such a scheme as Yang Cairen and Jinfei at this moment? If the doorway was clear as soon as possible, Xu Cairen would not have lost his beloved son. Thinking of this, Yao Yulu's eyes were slightly red, but she resisted the tears in her eyes and was unwilling to show her weakness at such a moment.
But what Yao Yulu didn't expect was that at that time, because of anger, Xiao Xuanzi put musk into Yang Cairen's palace, which came in handy at this time.
This time, the bodyguard went in for a long time, and it was not until half an hour later that the bodyguard leader hurried out, but this time he did not come empty-handed.
The people in the garden stood in the cold wind with Li Qingxiao. The late winter night had made people feel no longer sleepy. They could only endure the bitter cold. Seeing the bodyguard leader running out, they quickly forgot to go there. Yang Cairen looked at the things in the bodyguard leader's hand and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and the handkerchief in his hand fell like a feather. Fall on the ground.
The courtyard was even more silent. Li Qingxiao's expressionless face suddenly had a trace of spirit and asked, "What is this?"
The bodyguard leader quickly knelt on the ground and said, "When I returned to the emperor, I found a bag of spices hidden in the vase. Please take a look."
Vase? Yang Cairen was shocked. How could she put any spices in the vase? Although the crescent moon did not say anything, the small bag of spices in front of her was the bag she gave to the crescent moon that day? Why did she come to her own hall? It must be Yao Yulu! Yao Yulu must have found someone to frame her.
Li Qingxiao suppressed his anger and said with a serious face, "Go and find me the imperial doctor."
