After hearing this, Jin Xin's heart felt cold. Concubine Xuan had already stood up with the force of seizing others and hurried to the inner hall.
The emperor looked at Jin Xin silently, then turned to the father and son who were kneeling on the ground. He looked coldly and said to Jin Xin, "My concubine, you get up first."
Hearing this, Jin Xin had no choice but to do as he was told. He wanted to draw a clear line between himself and the Jiang family. Otherwise, if he continued to kneel down, he would threaten her pregnancy.
"Come here, go find the palace maid who led the way and take her into custody immediately." The emperor ordered in a cold voice.
Jin Xin was relieved when she heard that the emperor asked people to find the palace maid.
Later, the palace maid was captured. She was trembling and kneeling on the ground. The emperor looked at her and asked, "Which palace are you serving? What was the situation at that time?"
"Reporting back to the emperor, the father-in-law drank some wine and said he was dizzy, so the slaves took him to have a rest. But in the middle of the way, he insisted on breaking in and walked to Banyuexuan. At that time, Mrs. Pei was changing clothes. After the husband went in, he said a lot of stupid things and insisted that Mrs. Pei help him undress. Mrs. Pei was frightened and fell into the water when she rushed out. The slave asked someone to pick the wife up, but the husband-in-law retorted. He was talking nonsense, but I didn’t dare to talk nonsense about this matter. The father-in-law also asked the slave to serve him at that time. The slave was frightened and ran away quickly. After that, these things happened. "
"Which palace are you serving? I have always served the internal ministers and the foreign ministers. Why did you take the initiative to serve me?" Jin Xin immediately asked.
When the palace maid heard this, she was still very calm, "My servant used to serve Yu Zhaoyi, but was later assigned to serve in the outer hall of the imperial palace. At that time, there was a shortage of manpower, so I took my place temporarily, but I didn't expect this to happen."
Hearing Yu Zhaoyi, Jin Xin's heart skipped a beat. Shen Yin was already dead and the matter was over. What kind of slaves could she have to protect her master loyally?
"If what you say is even half a lie, it will be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor and annihilating the nine tribes. You should think carefully before you say it." Jin Xin looked at her with a threatening look in his eyes.
"I never tell lies, and I don't dare to lie. If I tell any lies, I will die in the cold lake." She raised her eyes, stared into Jin Xin's eyes, and looked at her provocatively.
Jin Xin was startled when she heard this. What did she mean?
The emperor was too lazy to continue listening at this time and said, "The matter has been investigated clearly. Jiang Tiancheng despised the emperor, insulted the noble family, harmed the heirs of the hero, and was immediately exiled thousands of miles away."
At the end of the sentence, he waved his hand impatiently, not wanting to hear any more explanations.
Jin Xin's body went limp, watching Jiang Tiancheng being dragged out while shouting for mercy, but she couldn't fall down, so she stepped forward and pulled the emperor's sleeve, "Your Majesty, can you not involve your family?"
"This matter is his fault alone. I have dealt with it and will not involve my family. You can rest assured." The emperor couldn't bear to see her so humble. He pulled her up and patted the back of her hand. Soothe her a little.
Regarding Jiang Tiancheng, the emperor no longer wanted to bear it. He was the leader of the country. If it weren't for Jin Xin's face, he would have ordered his beheading in public.
Jin Xin also knew that this was the best outcome.
But she didn't believe that Jiang Tiancheng was really such a bastard and dared to do such a thing in the palace. He was more afraid of death than anyone else. He stayed at home about what happened last time and how dare he go out to cause trouble. Now that he has entered the palace, he really has the courage to do so. Even if you are a thief, you don’t dare to really joke with your own life.
But she can't find the evidence now and can't interfere with the handling.
Jiang Quwu’s marriage...
Compared with Jin Xin's distress, Jiang Quwu was not much better. His face was livid and gloomy. He was even more angry and a little lucky. The Jiang family was not involved in this matter, and the emperor only looked at the pregnant concubine.
It doesn't matter if it's dealt with, it's better to die outside.
The Emperor and Jin Xin also went to see Mrs. Pei. She cried so hard and was so desperate that she wanted to commit suicide. She failed to save the child. How could she explain to her husband who was away at war?
What happened to her by Jiang Tiancheng will spread even more, and she will no longer be able to behave as a human being. She can still keep her reputation even if she is dead. Living, she faces not only the pain of losing her child, but also the rumors from outside. , the accusation against her, the guilt towards her husband.
Jin Xin felt guilty and wanted to comfort her, but Mrs. Pei went crazy and told her to get out. Seeing this, Concubine Xuan said coldly to Jin Xin, "My dear concubine, you'd better go back. You're here, just It would make my sister-in-law emotional.”
Jin Xin had no choice but to resign.
This Lantern Festival family banquet is not going to happen.
When she came out, Jin Xin asked someone to check on the palace maid who led the way. Late at night, she found out that the palace maid and Magpie were close friends since entering the palace. They used to serve together in the Jade Concubine Palace. Magpie died. At that time, she was also the one who buried the magpie.
After hearing this, Jin Xin closed her eyes in discomfort, "I was careless. I didn't check clearly at the time. Someone took advantage of me."
Seeing Jin Xin being so upset, Cui Gu held her belly. She looked unhappy and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. She quickly stepped forward to diagnose her pulse. Cui Gu gave her acupuncture and gave her pregnancy pills.
"Empress, there is a way to solve everything. Your health is the most important thing. Don't make it too difficult for yourself." Cui Gu advised anxiously.
How could Jin Xin not know this and said to Cuigu, "Find someone to keep an eye on this palace maid to see who she has contact with and how much she knows. If this matter cannot be handled properly, the matter of Concubine Jade will have to be involved." , I can’t let this palace maid fall on me.”
"We've sent people to keep an eye on it, please rest assured." Cuigu said.
The fetal movement was a bit frequent, which must have been affected by her emotions. The baby moved violently, and she was busy and smooth. She couldn't let anything affect the fetal movement. The baby was the most important thing.
At this time, in Cuiyu Residence, Concubine Fang looked at Fenxiang who came to reply and asked someone to hand her a large bag of silver. She smiled and said, "You have done a good job. You can't stay in this palace. This is Take the three hundred taels of silver with you, and I will send you out of the palace tonight."
Fenxiang was the palace maid who led the way today. Looking at the bag of silver in front of her, she smiled with satisfaction and rolled her eyes. She stepped forward to take the heavy silver bag and said, "I thank you, concubine Fang."
Then she followed the palace man out.
But an hour later, her people came back and told her that Fenxiang was dead and that the person who poured Yexiang was sent to the mass grave outside the palace.
Concubine Fang stared at Jin Xin and learned about Concubine Jade. After the magpie drowned, Fenxiang was buried and burned incense secretly. She was discovered by herself, so she asked her to come to her palace to ask questions, and then she found out that Magpie was about to marry Concubine De. All the collusion against Concubine Yu was told to Fenxiang. Fenxiang also knew that she would not be able to stay in the palace for a long time, so she agreed to Concubine Fang to act in this drama and let her use money to leave the palace.
Now, she is in the dark and Concubine De Gui is in the light. She must not know that she did this.
What she wanted was for her to completely break up with Concubine Xuan and let them fight each other.
As for herself, she should still be a well-behaved and innocent concubine. When these people lose both sides, she will accept their favor again.
"Sister, you are watching from heaven, I will definitely avenge you."
Concubine Fang stood by the window, looking at the bright moon in the sky as round as a jade plate with hazy eyes and choked with sobs,
