Chapter 235 The golden cicada shelled and counterattacked the mantis
King Fu and the third prince suddenly appeared in the shade hall, and even Yichen did not expect it, not to mention Qi.
If it's just the King of Fu, but there are three princes present... After all, Concubine Li's plan is not really going to ruin the beautiful boudoir's reputation. She still hopes to use this as a handle and threaten the Duke of Wei to agree to the marriage. If this spreads, not only will the marriage completely fail, but also offend the Duke of Wei for nothing and for the sixth emperors. The son will add an obstacle in the future!
Qi was completely panicked.
Although Yichen was surprised, he had to do so, so he had to follow the plan and tell the story of the incident in a few words.
Although King Fu was prepared, he was also shocked when he heard the words, and he was glad that the queen and the third prince intervened, which made Concubine Li's plan fail and preserved the reputation of his fifth sister.
Otherwise, how will his son-in-law face the eldest princess, father-in-law and mother-in-law in the future?
"What a bold maidservant dares to tarnish his fifth sister and second brother. He doesn't need to ask more questions, and he will kill him." The first to speak out was the third prince. He just saw that Princess Fu's words were orderly and obviously prepared. He should have penetrated the conspiracy of Concubine Li and made some arrangements. Even without their unplanning, the beautiful scenery was not hurt at all. At this time, he forced him with words, just to make Qiong Yi to mess up.
Sure enough, Qiongyi immediately woke up - something was wrong. She never thought that the third prince would step in. In this way, Concubine Li's plan would fail... It's hard to guarantee that Qi would not let her take the blame and lose her life in vain... She would not be willing. At this time, she didn't want anything to do with Concubine Li. She just asked for her life: "I dare not dare, slave What the maid said was witnessed with her own eyes.
Qi's mind was confused, and he didn't know what to do. He only subconsciously said, "The chisel of Qiongyi's words..."
"Why, Anren believed the maidservant's words and thought that my Su's daughter had an affair with the bodyguard?" Huang's voice was forced.
Qi Shi was excited: "Madam misunderstood..."
King Fu said coldly, "It is clear that this slave has opened the river and can't keep her." Then he waved to the attendant and asked him to take down Qiongyi.
"Your Majesty, I am a gift from my concubine. You can't..."
"How dare you defile your noble daughter, but you still dare to rely on the power of your mother!" King Fu snorted coldly: "Don't do it yet!"
The servant responded to the sharp voice, as if the iron wire crossed the eardrum of Qiongyi. After all, she also came out of the palace. Naturally, she knew the means of these eunuchs. Not only shivered, but also didn't care too much. She got up and ran to the wing room: "The slave is not dirty. You nobles know at a glance that the fifth mother is with the bodyguard... ”
As soon as he pushed open the empty door, he almost hit Zhang's bodyguard's arms. Qiongyi stabilized and grabbed Zhang's bodyguard's arm: "Your Majesty, this is the bodyguard..."
When Qiong Yi turned around again and looked into the wing room...
suddenly became a wooden stake.
There is no one in the wing, only a set of glazed tea sets, which is still above the tea case under the window.
Qionyi's mind seemed to be hit by lightning, and for a moment, she only felt a roar in her ears and her eyes were dazzling... How could it be like this...
The bodyguard walked out of the wing and saluted openly: "I have seen the prince."
"Why are you here?" King Fu naturally asked.
"My subordinate was on duty at the gatekeeper of the study. Later, she heard the doorman of the inner house report that the princess called her and asked her subordinates to send a message to the prince. They believed it. They were ordered to come and followed the maidservant to the study. She only said that the princess was in the room and let her subordinates enter. Although her subordinates were suspicious, they did not dare to disobey their orders. Unexpectedly, they entered, but she saw There was no one to go out, and I heard the noise of the people in the yard, so I didn't dare to come out at the next moment.
"Nonsense!" Qiongyi woke up like a dream. At this time, she was already panicked and only wanted to save her life. How dare she think about it carefully? She only cried and knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty Mingjian, it is obviously this bodyguard colluding with Wu Niang..."
"It's ridiculous. If you're telling the truth, why don't you see your fifth sister?" King Fu said coldly.
"It should be that they heard the voice outside, and Wu Niang left from another window first..." Qiongyi still argued.
And Qi and Xu Sanniang's mother and daughter were already covered with gray, and they retreated to the same side and dared not look at Qiongyi.
When the third prince saw this situation, the corners of his lips raised gently... He knew that... He was still silent in his heart, and less than ten words...
He heard a crisp voice behind him and interrupted Qiongyi and cried in panic: "Mother, elder sister, what happened?"
The girl who came hand in hand was Yijing and Si Niang. The two were still looking at the people with different looks in front of them - but when the beautiful scenery's eyes shook the enchanting lips of the third prince, they condensed slightly, but quickly passed by, and finally fixed on the face of Qiong Yi, who was full of grief and indignant.
Tut, how can a beautiful woman master the "pear blossoms and rain"? She has such a ferocious face with tears, but she has such a charming face in vain.
"The maidservant just saw the fifth lady enter the wing with the bodyguard. She must have escaped with the help of the bodyguard, and then she went inside again..."
"Qionyi, there is no side door in this east courtyard. According to what you said, will the fifth sister still fly around? Otherwise, we were in the main courtyard just now. With so many people, how can we not see the fifth sister go out?" Yi Chen shook his head: "That's it, how dare you quibble."
"Although I don't know what this maid said..." Yijing "full of doubts" and frowned and said, "But I've just been with the fourth sister..."
"Exact..."
"You are sisters, and you must have collusioned a long time ago." Qiongyi gritted her teeth and gradually stabilized her panic - up to now, she can only grit her teeth to save her life, and she can't involve the Xu family and Concubine Li.
The scenery is even more unclear: "It's really confusing, mother, what's going on?"
Huang smiled gently: "Don't ask, just say what happened after Ah Yu left."
Only then did Yijing look at Xu Sanniang - the poor child. At this time, she was already trembling all over. At a glance, the bright-eyed person knew that she was a thief with a guilty heart, had no courage, and dared to frame the polly. What a fearless person.
But Yijing didn't want to target the Xu family or Concubine. She just took this opportunity to take advantage of the hidden danger of Qiongyi and let Concubine Li taste a little bitterness, so that she would no longer have that delusion.
Yi Jing responded cleverly and reported in an orderly manner: "Originally, Ah Yu said she was going to fight, but I suddenly felt sleepy and couldn't help taking a nap... But when Ah Yu left, she couldn't sleep again, so she left here. Because she had just come all the way, she saw the fourth sister and the seventh sister hanging by the pool from afar. Fishing, I wanted to find them. Unexpectedly, I met them halfway, so I sat in a red pavilion with my fourth sister for a while. Later, Xia Ke and Qiu Yue found me and knew that my mother and aunts had come here.
Yijing and Xu Sanniang had been idle for a while and did not go straight to Xiyuan, but passed through the pool where Si Niang and Qi Niang were fishing. Of course, the route was discussed with Yichen for a long time, so as not to meet the Qi family who came to "catch adultery".
Si Niang also said, "When I was fishing with the seventh sister, I also saw the fifth sister and Ah Yu. At that time, I thought that the fifth sister didn't see me, and I was curious that she and Ah Yu didn't know where she went. But it didn't take long for me to see that Zhuo and Wei's two women also arrived at the pool. When everyone talked about the fifth sister, they all said that she had met Ah Yu today. I didn't have time to laugh with us, so I made an appointment to come in this direction. I was trying to find the fifth sister, but I didn't want to meet her, so I went to the pavilion to sit for a while.
That is to say, there are two certificates.
The reason why Si Niang chose to fish is that Zhuo and Wei were chatting with several noble girls by the pool. When she had time, she would take the initiative to find the two and come to Xiyuan to "meate" the scenery. However, it was really smooth today, but it was Zhuo and Wei who took the initiative to talk to the Si Niang, saving a lot of effort.
"When my daughter learned that her mother and aunts had come to the prosperous hall, she resigned from Ayu and Eleven Niang and came with her fourth sister." Yijing said again, "It's just this maid, why do you say that I have a private meeting with the bodyguard?"
"I can clearly see..." Qiong Yi has already collapsed to the ground and is disheartened.
"How dare you argue!" Yichen scolded, "We just entered the main courtyard. How long has it been since we saw the fifth sister and the lonely man and woman of the bodyguard? And the fifth sister had already left the Fanyin Hall. She met the fourth sister on the road, as well as Zhuo's Ayu and Wei Eleven Niang. They gossiped for a while and then came all the way to ask how you witnessed the private meeting between the fifth sister and the bodyguard?
Qiong's face is ashes.
Only Xu Sanniang got up and interrupted uneasily: "Qionnyi must have seen the wrong person? She thought it was Ajing in the wing, so when she saw a woman passing by, she subconsciously thought it was her, most likely just a maidservant, colluding with this bodyguard..."
When Qi heard this, his eyes also brightened: "It should be so. To say, Qiongyi is also a loyal maidservant beside the concubine Li. How can she do this stupid thing?"
Until this time, the Xu family was still unconscious and wanted to keep the chess piece of Qiongyi? Yijing sneered in her heart. In fact, if they want to delve into it, it is not difficult to involve the Xu family together, but they deliberately "be confused" once. Unexpectedly, they still have to take an inch.
Fuwang probably was really angry with the mother and daughter of the Xu family and said coldly, "Just now, Qiongyi claimed that she saw her fifth sister go to the side door, but the bodyguard said that he followed Qiongyi. Even if Qiongyi saw the wrong person, she would not be the person she led in. This is simple. It's better to catch the doorman. As soon as Zi asked, he knew whether Qiongyi was dazzling or intentional.
There is no doubt that the porter's mother-in-law had already "rebelled", and immediately confessed that it was Qiongyi who bought her and presented evidence - the red gold bracelet was still ordinary, but the gold lotus fat jade bracelet with the mark of the Internal Manufacturing Bureau...
"This is the jewelry from the internal manufacturing bureau. The palace is registered, and there are traces to be found. Qiongyi, what else do you have to say..." Yichen asked.
Of course, Qiongyi is speechless. Even if she is stupid, she can see through the current situation. Even if she confesses the truth and involves Concubine Li, she can't escape death. Instead, she has taken the blame, and there may be a glimmer of vitality...
"There is no need to ask again. This maid must be provoking trouble." Xu Qi was still a sensible person, afraid that Qi would be confused again, so he said first.
The next thing is also simple. Whether King Fu wants to kill Qiong's staff or be virtuous, saying that it is the slave and maidservant rewarded by Li's concubine. His mother was originally also a slave of the Xu family. The royal family can't stay any longer, but considering that the concubine Li was originally kind, it is better to forgive Qiyi once and only let the Qi family bring it back to the Xu family.
Qi was still unwilling - she also came to her senses at this time and knew that she was stealing chickens and rice, but she was calculated by the princess and the Duke's mansion. She said to herself that the princess wanted to sell well. She knew that the maidservant rewarded by the concubine Li could not be killed, but she wanted to expel the royal palace for an excuse. In addition to the thorn in her eyes, she subconsciously wanted to refuse, so she wanted to say "Qion The clothes are the maidservant of the royal palace, but it is at the disposal of the princess.
But it was stopped by Xu Qi in time: "Sister-in-law, this is all the princess's tolerance and the face of the mother. If you insist on acting recklessly, you will really offend the government and you can no longer turn around."
Qi had to swallow his breath and finally took back his life, but he lost the opportunity of wealth and glory forever. I don't know whether to be glad or the grieving Qiongyi brought back to the Xu family.
And beautiful scenery thought that the beautiful concubine will definitely call Qi to the palace the next day. If the governor is defeated, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not be angry, and she will come up with some damaging tricks. Her sister is gentle and virtuous, and she will definitely tolerate it, so she can't rest assured. She begged the Huang family and said that she would stay in the Fuwang Mansion for a few days, but the commission was to pretend that if the concubine summoned Yichen When she entered the palace, she followed her. At worst, she went to Ci'an Palace to move rescue soldiers. There was a big Buddha town like the Empress Dowager, so that her sister would not be wronged again.
Huang can probably guess the plot of the beautiful scenery, smile and agree, look at the beautiful scenery, but secretly frowning - today, although the "tricks" of Li and the Xu family are full of ignorance, just with beautiful days, even if they can understand it, they can't think of such a plan. It should be the way for the girl of beautiful scenery... She is old Growing up, it is getting wiser and wiser, but it is not as tolerant as Yechen. It is a loser. If in the future...
Huang took a look at the "whole process" and witnessed the third prince who was turning to the side door with King Fu. He gently touched the top of the beautiful scenery: "I know that grandma is in front of you. Just don't be naughty and make trouble for Chener."
The scenery answered with a smile and repeatedly told Xia Ke to arrange for her to go back and bring a few sets of clothes to change.
Xia Ke came forward mysteriously and whispered in Yijing's ear, "Five Niang, just now, Your Highness told me to tell me that I would see you when I was unprepared."
