"Yes, I heard with my own ears that your palace maids and the eunuchs serving in the imperial court were secretly passing on information! Lady Xue, you are so bold that you actually sent palace maids to spy on His Majesty's government affairs!" Lady Wen asked coldly.
Xue Jinyan stared at her with a cold look in her eyes. "Is it you?"
She actually reported herself.
When Xue Jinyan saw Zhu Sha being arrested, she thought it was Ning Wanyin who informed the emperor...
"It's me!" Lady Wen raised her head.
From today on, she will step on Xue Jinyan and soar into the sky.
Ning Wanyin and Xue Jinyan have been fighting for so long, but in the end, isn't Xue Jinyan still fine?
How could she be so skillful and hit the target with one strike?
Your Majesty will certainly look up to her.
Seeing Lady Wen's smug look, Xue Jinyan's heart attack became even more severe.
It was originally a trap set for Ning Wanyin...
In the end, Ning Wanyin didn't fall for it, but a nosy idiot showed up.
"Eunuch Jin Zhong, His Majesty is still waiting for your report." Concubine Wen urged.
Jin Zhong nodded and took the two captured people to Ganxin Palace.
Xue Jinyan and Lady Wen went to pay their respects together.
"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission and caught the criminal red-handed," Jin Zhong reported, presenting the seized envelope.
Helian Qi felt that something was wrong.
because……
He specifically ordered people to keep a close eye on the memorials to the emperor.
I didn't see anyone coming to steal the news.
When I opened the envelope, I found that there was no confidential information inside, but an IOU.
"IOU?" Helian Qi looked at the two people kneeling on the ground.
The young eunuch immediately said, "Your Majesty, please understand! I borrowed a sum of money from Zhu Sha a few days ago. She and I agreed to pay her back today, so I brought the IOU with me."
"You're talking nonsense!" Lady Wen widened her eyes and said in disbelief, "Last time you clearly passed on a message to her, she gave you money... I heard it with my own ears!"
"Seven days ago, I did meet Zhu Sha, and Zhu Sha returned me a sum of money. It was agreed on that day that he would return the rest today. As for passing on the message, I dare not do that..." the young eunuch said hurriedly.
Wen Meiren was anxious, "You are talking nonsense!"
"What I said is all true, Your Majesty. I am from the same hometown as Zhusha in Qionghua Garden. Because of our fellow countrymen relationship, she asked me to borrow money, and I lent her money..." said the young eunuch.
Zhu Sha also kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, please be wise! I was seriously ill a few days ago, so I borrowed money from my fellow villagers to buy medicine. I am telling the truth. Your Majesty will know once you check!"
When a palace maid fell ill, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs would ask the Imperial Hospital for a pharmacist to see her.
Helian Qi's eyes darkened slightly, "Send it to the Criminal Justice Department for investigation."
soon.
The eunuch Wu Mi rushed over and after some investigation, he confirmed that...
Zhusha had a serious illness some time ago and spent a lot of money on medicine for his recovery.
"Chusha, why didn't you tell me that you needed money?" Xue Jinyan deliberately blamed her.
Zhu Sha looked remorseful, "My master has always been kind to me, I dare not trouble you anymore—"
"It's just a small amount of money. You have been wrongly accused." Xue Jinyan glanced at Lady Wen, then looked at Helian Qi and said:
"Your Majesty, Lady Wen falsely accused my maid and slandered me. Please, Your Majesty, help me!"
Lady Wen didn't expect that after catching the perpetrator red-handed, she would end up with this result...
She finally reacted.
This is a trap!
Lady Xue deliberately tricked her.
No, maybe it wasn't her who was tricked, but Tang Miaoling and Ning Wanyin.
But they didn't fall for it and jumped in on their own.
For a moment, Lady Wen hated Xue Jinyan, Tang Miaoling, and Ning Wanyin very much.
"Your Majesty, I don't know why it turned out like this... Maybe the news leaked out, and Concubine Xue made preparations in advance..." Concubine Wen panicked, kneeling on the ground with tears falling, her crying was so pitiful.
Xue Jinyan sneered, "You have no evidence, and you slandered a concubine. What crime should you be punished for?"
As she spoke, she also looked like she was about to cry, "Your Majesty, I have been wronged and framed for no reason. Your Majesty must stand up for me!"
Helian Qi looked at the scene in front of him and almost guessed in his heart that it was Xue Jinyan who deliberately tricked Concubine Wen.
But now that it’s over…
"Lady Wen misheard and caused such a misunderstanding. You will be demoted to Baolin and confined to your home for a month. You must reflect on your actions." Helian Qi said in a deep voice.
Lady Wen's face turned pale. "Your Majesty, I am here to show my love for you. I am here for your Majesty..."
"Go back and reflect on yourself!" Helian Qi interrupted her coldly.
He was only demoted two levels, which was a concession. Otherwise, he would have been sent to the cold palace for the crime of rebellion.
What else was she going to say that was inappropriate?
Lady Wen was asked to leave by Wang Degui with a pale face.
Xue Jinyan decided to stop while she was ahead and bowed:
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of this concubine. I will take my leave!"
After everyone left.
Helian Qi said coldly, "The eunuch just now will be dealt with in two days by finding a reason."
This person obeys the Xue family, so naturally he cannot keep him.
"Yes." Wang Degui was shocked and accepted the order respectfully.
…
Dyed Maple Pavilion.
The eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department moved out the furnishings of the beauties one by one, making the bedroom look particularly desolate for a moment.
Wen Baolin fell to the ground, his face ashen, "How could this happen..."
"Master, you are still Baolin, you are just under house arrest for a month. You still have a chance!" the personal maid comforted.
"Xue Jinyan is a vicious villain, and Ning Wanyin is not a good person either!" Wen Baolin gritted his teeth in anger.
It's all their fault.
She finally regained her status as a beauty and became Baolin again.
