Chapter 606 The Incident
"Send him to the Internal Criminal Department." Concubine Yi took a deep breath and said, "Let's go. I'll go see the Queen."
"Master! Master, please spare my life, Master!" Qing Lan, who had been silent for a long time, was so frightened when he heard the words "Internal Criminal Department" that he trembled all over. He knelt down a few steps and hugged Concubine Yi's legs.
"Master, please don't send me to the Internal Criminal Department. Please, Master, I don't want to go..."
"Get out of here! You shameless thing, do you still have the nerve to beg your master? Go to hell." Qinghu kicked him.
Qinglan shook his head vigorously: "No, I won't go, no..."
The Internal Criminal Department, that is the Internal Criminal Department, how could the palace maids and eunuchs not be afraid?
I was afraid to begin with, and Qinglan was being indoctrinated with many things by people with ulterior motives.
For example, what kind of extra treatment would a palace maid like her, who was still somewhat pretty, receive when she entered the Internal Criminal Department...
For example, what kind of punishment will her family receive for what she did.
The string in her head finally broke. She didn't know who told her that as long as she refused to admit it, she wouldn't have to suffer.
She thought, how could she not admit it?
As long as we enter the Internal Criminal Department, it will be impossible to hide it.
She thought, she couldn’t go in even if she died, she couldn’t…
Then, I was dragged out in a daze.
Before Concubine Yi went to Fengzao Palace, the eunuchs who caught up with her told her that Qinglan was dead.
He crashed into the wall outside the Internal Criminal Department and his skull was shattered.
Concubine Yi collapsed outside Fengzao Palace at that time, but eventually she returned.
But when she returned, the queen had to ask her to come again.
Her eldest daughter hit her head against the wall and died for no reason. There must be a reason.
Concubine Yi looked unhappy, Qinghu advised: "Master, don't blame yourself. If she had nothing to hide, how could she do this? No matter how powerful the Internal Criminal Department is, can they force her to confess? I'm afraid she doesn't want to suffer."
Concubine Yi nodded.
Concubine Shun came over and sighed after asking: "I felt something was wrong with you back then. But it's been so many years, how can I investigate it? Now that this girl is dead, you have become the one who forced someone to death."
Concubine Yi was angry and afraid: "Why am I doing this?"
"Forget it. The Queen has summoned you, so go first and tell the truth. It won't be a problem even if the Queen knows." Concubine Shun said.
Concubine Yi had no choice but to agree and said goodbye to go find the queen first.
She told everything in Fengzao Palace.
The queen frowned: "Did you hear the two eunuchs talking?"
Qinghu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I heard it with my own ears."
"Did you see what he looked like?" the queen asked again.
"Your Majesty, I didn't see them. I was afraid of being discovered, so I just listened from the corner. I knew Qinglan, so I didn't rush to see what the two looked like..."
Qinghu carefully told the conversation between the two eunuchs.
This matter could not be concealed and soon spread everywhere.
In Changle Palace, Mei Xiuyi smashed the cup fiercely.
What was there that she didn't understand at this point? She wasn't angry because her actions might have been exposed, but...
This calculation, this calculation...
"Which servant picked up my shoes the day I had my period?"
Fuyue and Fuqin were startled.
They were in great confusion at the time and had no idea what was going on, but it can be found out.
"Go check." Mei Xiuyi calmed down at this moment.
She knew better than anyone how Concubine Yi had a miscarriage, but she herself was also the result of a conspiracy?
Sun Gengyi is so brave.
"Call Sun Gengyi."
Soon, the anxious Sun Gengyi was brought in.
"When you followed Concubine Yi, I thought you were capable. That's why I employed you. Haven't you been living a better life in recent years?" Mei Xiuyi calmed down now and sat down to drink tea.
Sun Gengyi's heart was beating like a drum: "How could that be? Thank you for your care, my lady. I have been doing fine these past few years."
"Yes, it's okay. Look, I'm wearing snow-satin shoes." Mei Xiuyi smiled.
Sun Gengyi subconsciously pulled his feet back, feeling very embarrassed.
"I... just asked the aunts in the clothing department to use some leftover scraps from the ladies." Sun Gengyi said embarrassedly.
"Really? This snow satin is hard to come by. Even if it's just leftover material, how can I easily ask you for it? And your hairpin, although it's old and made in the past, the two gems on it are still quite bright."
It's just small, very small. The ladies naturally don't like such gems. Even if they use them, they are just embellishments.
"Your concubine... Your concubine does not understand what Your Majesty means. Does it mean that I am not worthy of using these?" Sun Gengyi bit her lip.
"Haha, do you think you are worthy of it?" Mei Xiuyi sneered, "Without me, what kind of life have you lived? You can't afford three meals a day, and you don't even have enough clothes to change in winter. But after just a few years, you can wear clothes like this? You are living a good life."
Mei Xiuyi is not a kind person. Even if she used Sun Gengyi, she did not give him so many things.
I had never paid much attention to it before because I thought that maybe Sun Gengyi was taking advantage of her and taking care of her everywhere.
But now thinking about it, it's very suspicious. Isn't Sun Gengyi being taken care of too much? "Your Majesty...what do you mean? After all, I am also the emperor's..."
"How dare you say that?" Mei Xiuyi threw the teacup directly over and hit Sun Gengyi.
Sun Gengyi was startled by the blow and knelt down immediately.
But he knelt directly on the broken tea bowl and screamed immediately.
She was wearing light yellow clothes today, and soon blood began to seep from her left knee.
Mei Xiuyi only raised her eyebrows and said, "Sun, do you want to admit it yourself, or do you want me to send you to the Internal Criminal Department?"
Sun Gengyi moved back in pain, pulled out the porcelain shard that had pierced his flesh, and screamed again: "I don't know what you are talking about... I always do things according to the Majesty's wishes. Sending me to the Internal Criminal Department, are you asking me to talk about the Majesty's affairs?"
"Are you threatening me?" Mei Xiuyi laughed again: "Sun, no one will care if I kill you."
Sun Gengyi shuddered: "Don't say that, Madam. I am a coward. How could I betray you, Madam?"
"Okay, as long as you tell me who it is, don't worry, you are just a dress changer, no one cares about you. I will save your life." Mei Xiuyi said, she even laughed again: "I will make sure that no one knows you are involved. Anyway, Qinglan is dead, right?"
"I just need to catch the person next to me. Don't worry, I know you must have been tricked." Mei Xiuyi said.
"Your Majesty, you are joking. I don't know what you are talking about." Sun Gengyi refused to admit it.
She felt that Mei Xiuyi would not dare to send her to the Internal Criminal Department. If she did, the conspiracy against Concubine Yi would be known to others.
That would be of no benefit to Mei Xiuyi at all.
"Really?" Mei Xiuyi looked at her.
Ouch.
