Chapter 510 Wen Chongrong
"Carry her back and give her proper treatment first." The queen waved her hand.
"Yes." Someone responded and hurriedly carried the little girl away. It was really bad luck. This happened just a few days after she entered the palace.
I don't know if it was because the Queen Mother plotted to take her with her, or what, but it was ruined anyway.
It is impossible for a prince to marry a woman with obvious scars as his principal wife, nor as a concubine.
The rain was still falling, so Qi Yixiu asked someone to send the empress dowager back and asked the imperial physician to accompany her and serve her.
If it keeps raining like this in this palace road, the oil will run out quickly.
But the sharp stones are still there and have been collected.
Qi Yixiu went to the Queen Mother first, watched her drink the tranquilizer and lie down, and then came out.
In the Queen's Palace, everyone in the harem rushed over.
After Qi Yixiu came over, he looked at everyone's faces. Some were calm, some were uneasy, and some were nervous.
"Once the truth of this matter is uncovered, the person will be sentenced to death." Qi Yixiu said indifferently.
As he said this, Concubine Qian Shu's face became even uglier, but she couldn't just say that I was innocent.
No one said anything to her.
"I was thinking about something on the way here." Shen Chuliu said, "Is today's matter directed at the Empress Dowager or Miss Li?"
"Isn't it the same?" Concubine Jin said.
"Of course it's different." Shen Chuliu looked at her: "If it's aimed at the Empress Dowager, then what kind of person is hidden in the harem? If someone wants to harm the Empress Dowager, that's a big deal. But if it's aimed at Miss Li, it's different. Although the emperor hasn't issued an order about Miss Li's future, everyone has a guess. The Empress Dowager was frightened and Miss Li was disfigured. This is really intriguing."
The Queen nodded and said, "What Concubine Jing said is right. This is such a coincidence. Where did those sharp stones come from? I asked someone to check, and it's rare to find such things in the palace."
"Search the palace." Shen Chuliu said, "Although the palace is large, there are traces to follow. There have been incidents over and over again. I now suspect that the Ninth Prince's incident is also one of them."
When it comes to the prince, she can't help but worry about her own children.
No matter how powerful she is, she is just a mortal and cannot guarantee that she can protect the child at all times.
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
Intellectually, this is right, but who wants to have their palace searched?
"My beloved concubine is selfless." Qi Yixiu smiled.
"I'm afraid that one day something bad may happen to the Sixth Prince." Shen Chuliu said.
After hearing this, the concubines who had princes and princesses all felt sympathetic. Indeed, if a prince like the Ninth Prince could get into trouble, what about the others? "It's useless to search the palace. Don't worry, my beloved concubine, I won't let that man off easily." Qi Yixiu waved his hand and said, "Save the three days of greetings, my beloved concubines, go back. There should be a result within three days."
Everyone stood up, agreed and went their separate ways.
Concubine Qian Shu was so frightened that she couldn't sleep all night and started to have a fever in the morning.
She was really wronged this time, but the blame was on her.
Sure enough, at noon the next day, the investigation was led to Fuyang Palace.
A eunuch asked the Miscellaneous Affairs Bureau for kerosene.
Concubine Qian Shu fainted at that moment, out of sheer fright.
The eunuch was quickly taken to the Internal Punishment Department. In order to prevent him from committing suicide, his jaw was removed and his hands were broken. Anyway, this man was going to be punished, so there was no way he could be kept alive.
This person initially said that it was Concubine Qian Shu who instructed this.
However, this is a serious matter, and the Internal Criminal Department, for the sake of safety, will not easily believe it. If he confesses, he will continue to be sentenced.
After three rounds in a row, the man was about to go crazy and cried, saying that he had accepted money from Song Ping'an.
Song Ping'an, in Changqiuxuan, is Wen Chongrong's personal eunuch.
The Internal Criminal Department went to arrest the man without saying a word.
Song Ping'an was not a very tough guy. He was not even as strong as the eunuch in Fuyang Palace who could withstand a beating. As soon as night fell, he confessed everything.
It is said that everything was ordered by Xingzhi. Xingzhi and Xingye were the first to follow Wen Chongrong, so naturally it was Wen Chongrong who instructed them.
As for the reasons, they are ready.
Zhen Xiaoyi has been fighting against her in the past few years because the Eighth Prince has become stupid and the Ninth Prince has suffered from nightmares, and she has been bullied openly and covertly.
The Queen Mother naturally hated her. She couldn't say it openly, but she naturally didn't like her behind her back.
Although she has been a concubine in recent years, her life is really not easy.
So whether it was harming the Queen Mother, the Ninth Prince, or Li Qiu Shui, there were reasons for all of them.
Because Concubine Qian Shu had always treated her badly, and had plotted against her in secret and made things difficult for her.
Changqiuxuan was sealed off overnight and all the people were taken to the Internal Criminal Department.
Wen Chongrong couldn't stop her. She sat dejectedly in the room with only two words in her mind: it's over.
She was wronged this time, but since Song Ping'an was involved, she should know that it was a conspiracy.
In addition, these people found kerosene and a hammer for smashing rocks in Song Ping'an's residence.
Xingzhi and Xingye were taken away, and she couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't say anything.
Once the Internal Criminal Department imposes punishment, they will probably confess everything.
By then, even if she didn't do this, what about the previous ones? Wen Chongrong trembled all over, she was afraid after all.
The news spread throughout the harem, but everyone stayed indoors and could not walk around.
In Yufu Palace, Concubine Yao went to the main hall to talk to Shen Chuliu.
"I'm afraid Wen Chongrong won't be able to recover this time."
"Well, she has done a lot of things over the years. At least the Meng incident is not innocent. I'm afraid she can't get away with it." Shen Chuliu said.
"It's hard to say, Zhen Xiaoyi is going to make a comeback." Shen Chuliu said.
"Yeah, if I could turn things around, maybe my position would be even better than before." After all, I was wronged.
The two looked at each other, smiled, and decided to go.
The people here with Wen Chongrong could not bear the punishment and soon confessed.
Xingzhi and Xingye knew they would not survive, but they gritted their teeth and refused to say anything. It was a pity that they refused to say anything because they still had families to take care of.
No one has a heart of stone.
"You will suffer a lot, but your family members will not have a good ending either. Song Ping'an has confessed anyway, so it's useless for you to grit your teeth. When the time comes, the emperor will issue an imperial decree and your entire family will be executed."
The apricot branches were still holding up, but the apricot leaves collapsed all of a sudden.
There was not a single piece of healthy flesh on her body, and all her ten fingers were broken.
I couldn’t even cry anymore: “I…I said, I said everything…everything…I said.”
"Xing Ye!" Xingzhi gritted her teeth.
"Don't call me. I have done something wrong all these years." Xingye started to cry, "I told you to take me to see the emperor."
Do you want to tell her this only after you see the emperor? Zhu Sizheng looked at her for a long while and said, "Ask someone to clean her up and report to the emperor."
In the Taiji Palace, Qi Yixiu smiled faintly: "Let's go to the Queen Mother's Palace and ask everyone in the harem to come as well."
As he said this, he took Chusi to the Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother was frightened and caught in the rain, and eventually she fell ill.
It’s not serious, but it still requires careful self-cultivation.
After all, I'm old.
