"Greetings to the imperial concubine."
Concubine Qi saluted and said hello.
But Nian Shilan didn't let her get up: "Concubine Qi, you should know why I asked you to come here, right? Tell me, did you hurt Mr. Qi's face?"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Qi spoke rudely, and the following offended me. I was so angry that I had someone beat her."
Concubine Qi did not realize the seriousness of the problem, nor did she expect that Qi Guiren would be the first to convict her of her crime.
"Then how did she become so rude? What did she say?"
Nian Shilan looked at Concubine Qi and asked calmly.
Concubine Qi was stunned for a moment when she heard Nian Shilan's words. How could she say this?
Mr. Qi said that he is not favored by the emperor? Or are you saying that if you didn't have the third elder brother, you wouldn't be a concubine at all?
"Concubine Qi, you are so brave."
Nian Shilan suddenly put down the tea cup in his hand, and said sternly: "Not only did you poison Shu Yue, but you dared to use your identity to let others take the blame for you, do you take me seriously?"
When Concubine Qi heard Nian Shilan's words, she immediately reacted and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I am wronged and it was not me who did it. Today I went to Chuxiu Palace because I wanted to ask Mr. Qi what happened. It's okay, but she actually insulted Chen Concubine, saying that without Brother San'a, everyone in the palace would laugh at Chen Concubine, so Chen Concubine was so angry that someone slapped her mouth. Chen Concubine never dared Poison, my dear, do you trust me?"
"Mr. Qi, what do you think?"
Nian Shilan didn't judge himself, so he threw the words to Qi Guiren first.
Qi Guiren responded: "My dear, I don't have much friendship with Concubine Qi. If she hadn't invited Concubine Chen and Noble Fucha to her palace that day, I would not have gone. Moreover, Concubine Qi She has never been good at female work, but she made a lot of sachets during that time. All this is evidence that she is preparing for what will happen next. Moreover, today she even said it herself to make the concubine take the blame. Otherwise, , it is impossible for her to punish the concubine, and also send the concubine’s maid to the punishment department, because if the concubine wants to expose her, there will be no witnesses at all. "
"you are lying."
Concubine Qi didn't expect Mr. Qi to be so bold and put this crime on her head in front of her.
"Then why did you send the concubine's maid to the Criminal Punishment Department? Is it just because you wanted to punish her and she defended the concubine?"
Qi Gui didn't wait for Concubine Qi to speak, and quickly explained the reason Concubine Qi wanted to say.
Concubine Qi couldn't take it anymore.
"Concubine Qi, do you need me to bring the maid here for questioning?"
That's what Nian Shilan said, but he didn't even think of bringing the person over.
Anyway, Concubine Qi sent the person there, why should I let him go?
There is nothing wrong with letting Mr. Qi hate Concubine Qi all the time.
And now that things are done, Nian Shilan doesn't need a reason at all for what he wants to do, and he doesn't want to hear any reason at all.
"Concubine Qi, when you did these things, you probably didn't think about the third elder brother, right? If the third elder brother has a naughty girl like you, I'm afraid he will only be disgusted by the emperor in the future."
Nian Shilan looked at Concubine Qi and sneered: "Even if you don't plead guilty, I will report this matter to the emperor exactly as it is. By then, I'm afraid the third elder brother will never have a good life again." .”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty,"
Concubine Qi wanted to say something more, but Nian Shilan didn't listen at all.
"Come here, take Concubine Qi down and lock her up in Changchun Palace to wait for the emperor to be punished."
Although Nian Shilan is the imperial concubine and has the right to take charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace, Nian Shilan will not easily dismiss Concubine Qi and leave others to blame.
Before Concubine Qi was taken away, she looked at Qi Guiren fiercely. She only regretted that she was soft-hearted and did not beat her to death.
After Concubine Qi was taken away, Nian Shilan looked at the happiness that could not be concealed in Qi Guiren's eyes and said, "Qi Guiren, are you satisfied with this way of handling me?"
Qi Guiren didn't expect Nian Shilan to ask him this question, so he quickly said, "Your Majesty is wise."
Nian Shilan looked at Qi Guiren's innocent and beautiful appearance, and really admired her for thinking of using herself to take revenge on Concubine Qi.
"Come on, you have to take good care of your face. You don't have to go out these days. I will tell the emperor about your situation and wait until your face is healed before going out."
In fact, even if Nian Shilan didn't say anything, Qi Guiren couldn't go out like this, so she didn't think it was anything when she heard what Nian Shilan said before, but after hearing it, her face changed.
Originally, she wanted to use this incident to let the emperor see her more, but unexpectedly, Nian Shilan stopped her idea and even banned herself in the palace in disguise.
"Your Majesty, that concubine's maid?"
Qi Guiren thought that he couldn't help Nian Shilan deal with Concubine Qi with these injuries, but he couldn't even save his maid, right?
But Nian Shilan just wasn't what she wanted: "Didn't I just tell you when I asked Concubine Qi to go away? If you wait for the emperor to make an apology, I will naturally have no right to deal with this matter. After all, Concubine Qi also has a prince."
After listening to Nian Shilan's words, Qi Guiren couldn't say anything no matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only accept his fate and leave.
"Why didn't you say anything just now?"
After everyone left, Nian Shilan asked Feng Ruozhao.
Feng Ruozhao smiled and shook his head: "What can I say? This thing sounds ridiculous. This Concubine Qi is really stupid, and she left an excuse for Qi Guijun in vain."
"Yes, Concubine Qi is stupid, but looking at Mr. Qi's look just now, I am sure of one thing."
Nian Shilan said: "Neither of them should know who poisoned Shu Yue."
"You mean, there's someone else?"
Feng Ruozhao still didn't quite understand what Nian Shilan meant.
"Who knows pharmacology and can plan to get to Yikun Palace? This is not something ordinary concubines can do."
"Queen?"
Feng Ruozhao now understood what Nian Shilan meant, and it was not impossible.
"Then why are you?"
"Why should I listen to Mr. Xinqi?"
Nian Shilan said with a smile: "But I didn't say anything. The words and evidence were all provided by Mr. Qi. I also listened to the emperor's opinion. What does it have to do with me? Moreover, if I am not wrong, Concubine Qi will probably not be able to survive for the sake of Third Brother."
In fact, Nian Shilan thought this way because she thought that Concubine Qi committed suicide because the Queen was trying to scare her with the future of her third elder brother. So when Ning Bin, whom she had harmed at the time, could no longer have children, the Queen was like this Scared her.
So I just knew that I mentioned the third elder brother intentionally. If Concubine Qi had not changed, it seems that she would have ended her own life today.
Feng Ruozhao looked at Nian Shilan carefully. Although she knew that Nian Shilan was different from before, she did not expect that she would have such a strategy. I don’t know if she really didn’t care about this before, or if she deliberately hid her clumsiness. Otherwise, how could no one find out after so many years?
