Chapter 350 Confession



Chapter 350 Confession

In Kong's telling, the story is actually very simple.

Before she was given to the emperor, she had already had an affair with a guard.

After she became a concubine, she completely stopped thinking about it. However, Concubine De somehow got the handkerchief that she had given to the guard, and she was almost scared to death.

At that time, she and Concubine De were pregnant one after another. Concubine De used this to threaten her to change the fetus, saying that the baby in her belly was a son and what Concubine De wanted was a son.

At that time, Ci Xin advised her not to listen to Concubine Xin De. She had never had any substantive relationship with the guard, and it was something that happened in the past. The emperor was tolerant and would not care about it.

But she was afraid and still agreed to Defei's request.

However, on the night of delivery, the child she gave birth to at great length was taken away, and what was stuffed into her arms was a stillborn baby.

Ci Xin was horrified and wanted to report it to the emperor immediately, but she ordered people to knock him out and lock him up in the woodshed.

But she didn't know that after she dealt with the emperor, when she sent people to see Ci Xin, she had already been poisoned. After she was finally saved, she had become what she is now.

"I know it's all Defei's fault. Not only Cixin, but also everyone around me who knew about this was punished or killed for various reasons."

Kong collapsed on the chair with a painful look on her face, but there were not many tears on her face, as if she had cried all her tears dry.

"In order to save Ci Xin's life, I just hid her in a secret passage. In order to make her obedient, I lied to her and told her to hide well so that I could tell the truth to the eldest prince one day."

Her voice choked with sobs. "I thought, I thought after all these years, she might have forgotten or had already...but I didn't expect that she, she still remembered it."

Yun Qin looked at her coldly. She could see the shadow of that time in Ci Xin now. She must have been wise and loyal, but she was dragged into this situation by such a fool.

Thinking of her own Ah Jing, Yun Qin's eyes also showed a trace of pain. She was the same.

"Do you want to see her?" Yun Qin asked again.

Kong struggled for a while, then shook her head, "I, I don't have the face to see her." She raised her head and looked at Yun Qin, tears streaming down her face, begging, "I've said everything, you, don't embarrass her anymore, just let her go!"

Yun Qin was silent for a moment before she said, "It's over. Everything is up to the emperor to decide. But what Ci Xin said before was correct. The emperor is a tolerant person. I believe that Ci Xin's sincerity and loyalty will surely impress the emperor."

After saying this, Yun Qin stood up and left, leaving only Kong's sad cry in the hall.

When she walked out, the Wude Envoy outside the palace had already organized Kong's confession and handed it to Yunqin for review.

Yun Qin took a quick look and after confirming that it was correct, Envoy Wu De asked Kong to sign her name.

Going back and forth to Yuqian so many times inevitably aroused suspicion, so Yunqin did not go to Yuqian again, but returned to Yanning Palace and asked someone to invite Huo Jinchi.

Huo Jinchi arrived very quickly, and was a little surprised when she saw Kong's complete confession. She didn't expect that she had obtained Kong's entire confession in such a short time.

"Your Majesty, the witnesses and confessions are all here. What do you plan to do?" Yun Qin asked him.

Her tone was calm, but Huo Jinchi could hear some murderous intent in it. It was obvious that she had endured it long enough, and now that she had evidence, she could not wait even all night.

She had been worrying about this matter all day. Huo Jinchi was a little worried about Yun Qin, but looking at her burning eyes, he still said coldly: "Go to Yiyang Palace!"

Yun Qin felt relieved and said to him respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The thanks sounded heartfelt, but Hawking felt a pain in his heart.

At this point, she still didn't believe that he would really punish Concubine De.

——

Outside the Yiyang Palace, Ci Xin was also brought in. When she saw Yun Qin, she broke away from the palace maid's hand and rushed towards her, but was stopped by someone.

"Where is the eldest prince? Aren't you going to take me to see him?" She shouted to Yun Qin across the crowd.

After changing into new clothes and re-combing her hair, her facial features still had some of the beauty she once had, but her figure was still hunched over and her walk was not steady.

Yun Qin waved her hand to let the guards withdraw, and then said to her: "Before meeting the eldest prince, don't you want to meet that bad woman? We are going to vent the eldest prince's anger!"

"Really?" Ci Xin was a little unconvinced. She glanced at the imperial guards and Hawking Chi beside her, with some fear in her expression.

Yun Qin nodded, "Really? When the time comes, you must scold that bad woman severely, okay?"

Ci Xin nodded hesitantly, and leaned towards Yun Qin with some fear.

Xu An was about to ask someone to move her away, but Yun Qin reached out and grabbed her, protecting her by her side without showing any dislike for her.

Huo Jinchi looked at her deeply but did not stop her. He just waved his hand and asked the imperial guards to surround the Yiyang Palace.

The arrival of so many people naturally alarmed Concubine De.

She hurried out and saw the scene in front of her. She was puzzled and asked fragilely, "What is the emperor going to do?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Yunqin, his eyes sharply falling on the strange-looking woman beside her. Her face seemed familiar to her, but she couldn't find such a person in her memory for a moment.

But none of this prevented her from having a bad feeling in her heart.

Ci Xin was impressed by her, and shouted angrily and fearfully, "Bad woman!"

Huo Jinchi did not answer her, but walked past her and went straight into the hall.

After entering the hall and sitting down, Defei was about to ask again when she saw the eldest prince coming in with his nanny.

Yun Qin frowned and looked at Huo Jinchi disapprovingly, but Huo Jinchi was very determined and said to Yun Qin: "He should be informed of this matter. The sooner the better!"

This made sense, so Yun Qin didn't say anything else.

Ci Xin was a little excited when she saw the eldest prince, "Eldest Prince!"

Yun Qin held her back and whispered, "There are too many people here. If we have any secrets, we should wait a while before telling the eldest prince."

Ci Xin immediately nodded, covered her mouth, and sat obediently beside her.

The eldest prince bowed and noticed that the atmosphere in the palace was very strange, but he did not forget to smile at Yun Qin, with intimacy in his eyes that could not be concealed.

I feel a little strange and curious about the compassion around her.

Huo Jinchi didn't waste any words and threw Kong's testimony in front of Concubine De, "Can you explain to me what's going on?"

Defei picked up the confession on the ground. At first she could still maintain the doubt on her face, but then she was completely shocked.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is all slander, all slander!” She had completely lost her sense of propriety, and did not forget to cry out for injustice, pointing at Yun Qin and shouting: “Is Xi Zhaoyi you? What is your intention in forging such a thing? You even set your sights on the eldest prince. You have such a vicious heart!”

Yun Qin snorted coldly, "At this point, Concubine De, do you still want to turn the tables?"
