Chapter 45 Interrogation

Epa Fang finally stopped Beichen Yeli.

Beichen Yeli couldn't fall asleep this night. I don't know if it's because there are fewer people around him.

The next day, Beichen Yeli still got up early, still went to the early morning, and still dealt with government affairs.

After finishing the government affairs, Beichen Yeli asked his father-in-law about Shufei.

"Fang An, how is Concubine Shu today?" Beichen Yeli asked.

"To reply to the emperor, Shufei has been able to eat today. The imperial doctor said that Yu Duqing is almost done, and she will be fine after two days of recuperation." Mr. Fang replied.

Knowing that Concubine Shu was fine, Beichen Yeli paused and continued to ask, "So, what about Concubine Hui?"

"Huifei is served by Xingyan, Zhier and Yuefu, and it's okay to go to Changle Palace." Eung Fang thought for a moment and added, "It's just that Changle Palace is not far from Changmen Palace. Where does Concubine Hui move to live? I'm afraid there will be a lot of rumors in the palace."

After listening to the words of Eunuch Fang, Beichen Yeli did not speak, but the two flying sword eyebrows couldn't help frowning more and more tightly.

When Eunuch Fang saw this, he couldn't help sighing in his heart. Sure enough, the emperor's favorite in this harem was Empress Huifei.

At this time, Hu Yimeng, the woman Beichen Yeli cared about, was holding the little fox and basking in the sun in the courtyard of Changle Palace with Xingyan and Zhier.

In early spring, it was warm and cold, but today's sunshine is particularly good. Hu Yimeng curled up lazily on the wisteria lounge chair, holding a little fox in her arms, wearing this thick brocade cotton robe, with her hair simply rolled up, and her face facing the sky. She guessed that she could not see Beichen leave at night, and the Changle Palace It's very remote, and probably no one will come to visit, so I don't bother to clean it up. I just want to be at home.

Lying on the lounge chair, Hu Yimeng stroked the smooth fur on the little fox, squinted, and listened to Xingyan and pheasant to exchange all kinds of gossips in the palace.

"Her Majesty, I heard that Empress Defei was under house arrest because of the poisoning of Empress Shufei. Previously, only the maids around Empress Shu said that Empress Shu was poisoned because of the cake brought by Empress Defei. Now Empress Shu is awake, and even she herself said that she only ate Pu'er tea given by the emperor that day. The pastry sent by the Empress Defei is indefensable this time. The pheasant put her hands on her cheeks and sat on the small bench and said.

"However, Empress Defei and Empress Shu are cousins. They are originally a family. How can Empress Defei harm her sisters? I'm afraid there's a reason for this." Xingyan said while peeling oranges for Hu Yimeng.

"It is because everyone thinks that Empress Defei will not poison Empress Shu, so Empress Defei is the most suspected. This is called setting up a mystery and confusing the public." The pheasant said in a serious matter.

"Madam, do you think this was done by the Empress Defei? I don't know what the emperor will say about this. Xingyan handed the peeled oranges to Hu Yimeng.

"Whh whether the German concubine did anything has nothing to do with us. Now that I have brought you to this Changle Palace, the people in this palace should understand that I don't want to be involved in their boring struggles anymore. Whoever has harmed and who is favored has nothing to do with me. It's just a man. They care about their fight and have nothing to do with me. Now I'm far away from the center of the conflict and struggle. If anyone wants to hurt me again, I will definitely make it difficult for all of them to follow me!" Hu Yimeng smiled coldly and picked up a piece of orange and put it in her mouth. The sweet and sour taste made her feel comfortable.

She is not an ancient woman who has nothing but her husband. The most important thing for her is to live a good life. And now she feels that it is time to think about the problem of her and Beichen Yeli. She can never just passively accept Beichen Yeli's love charity, nor can she always passively let the women in the palace plan her behind her back!

"Feasant, go and see what I asked Huahua to check before." Hu Yimeng told the pheasant.

"Yes." The pheasant nodded and got up to look for the flowers.

Hu Yimeng narrowed her eyes and thought: According to the degree of Beichen Yeli's dislike of Concubine De, I'm afraid that the murder of Concubine De's own sister Shufei will be confirmed this time. It's just that the more things go in the direction that the public wants, the more she feels that things are wrong. Maybe everything will come out after Huahua has inquired out the news.

On the first day when Concubine Shu could get out of bed and walk around, Beichen Yeli arranged a trial. Because Princess Ziyu was one of the three concubines and the direct daughter of the left prime minister, and the fact that she poisoned her own sisters was a royal family ugliness and could not be publicized, so the trial was decided in the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, and the main judge was the Empress Dowager and Beichen Yeli.

Hu Yimeng, dressed in plain clothes, and Wang Xuelan, a haggard concubine, sat on the first chair on the left and right sides, while the other concubines did it in their respective positions according to their respective grades.

Seeing that everyone was sitting upright without saying a word, waiting for the trial, the empress dowager looked at Beichen Yeli and said lightly, "Your Majesty, everyone is waiting. Let's start."

"Hmm." Beichen Yeli nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "Bry up with Concubine De."

Hearing Beichen Yeli's order, an eunuch immediately went out to send a message. After a while, Prince Ziyu of Defei was taken into the Cining Palace.

I saw that she was dressed in plain clothes, and the golden dress symbolizing the status of the concubine on her head had been removed. Her face was yellow, her eyes were black, her lips were dry, and her whole body was extremely embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for my concubine. I have never poisoned Shufei! The concubine is innocent, and the concubine is wronged!" Wang Ziyu knelt on the ground with a plop and cried to avenge Beichen Yeli.

Seeing that Wang Ziyu was so embarrassed, the Empress Dowager frowned slightly, and the other concubines were also tight.

Beichenye commented on Wang Ziyu with an incomparable expression and said with any emotion, "Princess, I ask you, can you admit that you poisoned and murdered Shufei?"

"My concubine is wronged! The emperor begs you to make the decision for my concubine!" As soon as Wang Ziyu heard Bei Chenye asked that she denied guilt, she immediately opened her mouth to defend herself.

"You said you were wronged, but there is evidence?" Beichen Yeli asked.

"I have never liked to watch when I made cakes. This is a habit I developed before I entered the palace, but my concubine is indeed innocent. I have no reason to harm Shufei's sister!" Wang Ziyu was anxious. She had always been afraid that people would secretly learn the skills of making pastries, so she never let people serve her when making pastries. This time, her habit turned out to be fatal. How could she not worry?

"You don't have any physical evidence, but I have a lot of evidence here to prove that you murdered Shufei!" Beichen Yeli said coldly, "Fang An, come up with certification and physical evidence!"
