Chapter 131 There are rules in the palace, no lynching
Everyone in the harem knew that Gao Yurong was given by Concubine Kang Wu Wan's father to Zhu Feng, who was then the Prince of Yan. She had always been by Concubine Kang's side.
So this matter was a conspiracy between the two of them?
Ran Xiaoyu frowned, feeling that there was something wrong with this matter, but couldn't figure it out, so she decided to find a way to tell Nan Yan first.
She hurried out from behind the gate, and as soon as she came out, she bumped into someone.
"Who are you?"
The other person looked at her with a frown. Ran Xiaoyu looked up and saw that it was Xiu'er who was serving in Shufangzhai.
Xiu'er looked her up and down: "Aren't you Ran Xiaoyu, who is in charge of cleaning Yuhua Pavilion? What are you doing here?"
Ran Xiaoyu said hurriedly: "Oh, my handkerchief was blown in here by the wind, I came here to pick it up."
After saying that, he waved the handkerchief in front of her and turned away.
Xiu'er frowned and watched her hurriedly disappearing back. After a long while, she turned around and returned to Shufangzhai.
Ran Xiaoyu hurried back to the palace.
However, just as she turned a corner, she saw a group of people parked at the gate of the courtyard where Nan Yan was imprisoned. Upon closer inspection, she found that they were Concubine Kang and Wu Wan.
Her subordinate Qiao Yun coldly said to the guarding nanny, "The Queen has just received permission from the Queen to question the people inside. Don't stop them, get out of the way."
The nanny didn't dare to stop her and quickly stepped aside.
Wu Wan lifted her skirt and walked into the desolate courtyard. She immediately saw the room where Si Nanyan was imprisoned. The little eunuch Xiao Qizi went forward and opened the door.
Nan Yan was originally leaning against the headboard of the bed. When she saw Wu Wan come in, her heart sank for a moment, but she immediately stood up and knelt down in front of her: "This servant pays homage to Her Majesty Kang Fei."
Wu Wan sneered, sat on the stool, looked down at her and said, "Sinanyan, do you admit your guilt?"
“…”
Nan Yan knelt on the ground, frowned slightly, but did not speak immediately.
She hadn't figured out the whole story yet, but Wu Wan couldn't wait to come over at this moment.
Wu Wan said, "I just came back from the Empress's visit. The Empress is busy with the Emperor's affairs and doesn't have time to waste with you, so she asked me to question you."
“…”
"I am not as good-tempered as the Queen, and I will listen to your nonsense."
“…”
"If you confess your guilt sooner, I can finish my task sooner, which will be more convenient for everyone."
Nan Yan only felt the sweat slowly flowing down from her forehead.
She bit her lower lip and remained silent for a long time in this unbearable atmosphere before she whispered, "Empress Kang, I am innocent. I did not steal the Emperor's gift."
Seeing her like this, Wu Wan flew into a rage and slammed the table. "Asshole, do you think I'm a fool? We've found all the things in your place, and you still want to get away with it with this? Let me tell you, this isn't Shou'an Palace. You have Xia Yunting in cahoots with you, and the Emperor is backing you up!"
Nan Yan frowned slightly when she heard these words.
She raised her head and said calmly, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. Concubine Xia is not my accomplice, and the Emperor has never supported me."
Upon hearing her words, Wu Wan's face was filled with anger. She sneered, "Well, it seems you won't confess without some torture."
After he said that, he made a gesture and the little chess piece and Qiao Yun and the others behind him came up.
Nan Yan panicked and subconsciously took a step back, saying, "Empress Kang, there are rules in the palace that prohibit private punishment."
