"Snapped!"
As soon as she said those words, Emperor Xuanwu slapped her in the face: "If you dare to insult Concubine Xian again, I will pull out your tongue."
Jiang Xinyue also felt pity for Xia He. It seemed that the only two times the emperor hit his slaves, he hit Xia He on the face.
The Queen and Concubine De were startled by the huge slap and stood aside without speaking.
"What do you mean? What do you mean I killed her?"
It was impossible for Xia He to say this for no reason.
"Are you still pretending?"
"Your Majesty, the Queen, tonight the master said that his stomach was not feeling well, and asked the slave to go to the imperial hospital to ask the imperial doctor to take a look. The slave did not invite the imperial doctor, and was afraid that something might happen to the master, so he came back early. The slave saw a figure from behind, who was clearly Xian. The concubine ran out from inside, and all the slaves saw it."
Jiang Xinyue didn't feel guilty at all and continued to ask: "You said you saw my back. About what time was it?"
Xia He said firmly: "I remember this moment clearly."
"laugh!"
Concubine De sneered: "The eleventh hour is the canonization ceremony of the Concubine Xian. Hundreds of pairs of eyes are watching her receiving the canonization ceremony from the internal life officer in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Why did she come to Yanxi Palace to kill your master?"
The queen also followed: "It's such a coincidence that you saw the back, but you didn't even see the face clearly. I'm afraid someone killed your master and framed the blame on the wise concubine, but didn't calculate the time."
Xia He's tears did not fall due to shock, but he refused to believe it: "I have never seen the things that Tang Shiliang and his men found in the master's bedroom just now. They are not our queen's things, they must be ginger... "
She wanted to call Jiang Xinyue by his name again, but when she caught a glimpse of the emperor's warning eyes, she felt that her back molars were loose, so she quickly changed her name and said, "The Concubine Xian must have let someone in to frame my master."
Jiang Xinyue sighed: "I am not the one who contributed to Li Guiji's fate today. The grudge she made for punishing me to kneel in the garden was written off long ago when she was not favored. I did not record these small things at all. In your heart, you said that I framed her, why would I risk being discovered to frame someone who is already inferior to me in every way? Do you think I am stupid? "
Li Guiji has doted on the harem for more than ten years, and the concubines in the harem she offended are unknown. She does not need to take action, and life will not be easy for Li Guiji after she falls out of favor.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs may be able to get the Pei family to take care of her and take good care of her, but the concubines in the harem have many ways to harass people, and the officials of the previous dynasty still can't control the harem.
Over the years, the queen may have had the deepest resentment towards Li Guiji. She wished that all the concubines would come to trouble Li Guiji, so how could she possibly restrain their behavior?
If Jiang Xinyue was not stupid, she would not attack Li Guiji, lest her character would collapse if the emperor discovered her.
Xia He looked like his cognition had collapsed, and murmured to himself: "Who is that? Who wants to harm my mother-in-law?"
She knelt on the ground and looked at the empress, the concubine De, the concubine Xian, the empress dowager and the emperor. After looking around, she suddenly laughed: "My dear, look, this is the person you love. He can't even feel sorry for you. I refuse to shed a single tear, but I am willing to hurt you again and again for the sake of the Concubine Xian. My concubine, only this slave truly cares for you."
She got up from the ground, as if she wanted to carve all the faces of these people into her mind: "I don't know who killed my master, but I want that person to remember that even if I die... and turn into a ghost, I won't I will let go of the person who killed my mother-in-law."
"Just wait for me to come back and claim your life!"
She shouted loudly and slammed into a pillar on the side. There was a loud noise, and Xia He's blood splashed onto the face of the Queen Mother next to the pillar, causing a series of screams.
Emperor Xuanwu also protected Jiang Xinyue and took two steps back, covering her eyes with his sleeves, not wanting her to see the horrific scene.
Xia He fell to the ground, his eyes wide open and he didn't know where he was looking.
Maybe she was looking at the real murderer of her master!
One side of his forehead was deeply sunken, and he didn't know if the thick blood was caused by brain matter bursting out and sticking to the sunken forehead.
Xia He's blood splattered on the spot, just to deter the person who killed Li Guiji.
The crimson carpet was soaked in blood and turned a dark color. After midnight, a gust of wind blew by, and the doors and windows of the main hall were wide open, making a crackling sound.
The candles were all blown out in an instant, and the Queen Mother screamed and fainted from fright.
Just when everyone was frightened by this sudden change, a candle flickered on.
An extremely beautiful face appeared behind the candlelight.
But the beautiful face that appeared in such a weird atmosphere, no matter how bright and fresh, was also tainted with a bit of enchantment.
Emperor Xuanwu almost thought he had seen a ghost for a moment.
Pei Wu looked at the frightened emperor with satisfaction, and then used the candle in her hand to light the remaining candles that had been blown out.
The Yanxi Palace was lit up again, and Pei Wu's beauty was fully displayed in front of people.
Her voice had the power to soothe people: "It should be that this palace lady deliberately opened the doors and windows, trying to use her own death and the atmosphere created by the environment to scare us. People who have a clear heart will not be afraid, and people who have ghosts in their hearts, at midnight You will definitely be scared out of your mind when you dream about it.”
She took out the handkerchief from her sleeve, dipped some water in it and wiped the blood stains on the Queen Mother's face: "Of course, the person with ghosts in my heart is not the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother is simply timid.
This girl, who looked like a demon and a fairy, frightened everyone for a moment and their eyes followed her movements.
The Queen Mother woke up under her wiping, her face turned pale and she said, "Ah Wu... Ah Wu took the Ai family back to the palace and read a few Buddhist scriptures for the Ai family to meditate."
"The Queen Mother, the little money in your palace is still in Hexi Palace!"
Jiang Xinyue reminded her kindly, but the Queen Mother said with a cold face: "The nosy dog slave will definitely cause trouble for the Ai family. If Concubine Xian doubts him, she will beat him to death and throw him out of the palace."
After saying that, she took Pei Wu's hand and walked out quickly.
"I heard that the eunuchs in Concubine Rong's palace were also caught?"
Concubine De smiled slightly: "I thought that Concubine Xian and Concubine Rong's sister had a very good relationship. How come there is Concubine Rong's spy in Hexi Palace?"
Concubine Rong quickly shook her head: "Xiao Yinzi is really not sent by my concubine to inquire about the news. He is not my slave who serves me closely. How can I pay attention to his movements at all times?"
"That……"
Concubine De still wanted to sow discord, Jiang Xinyue smiled: "I believe Concubine Rong."
She had already said so, and Concubine De was already inferior to her if she said anything else. She also smiled and said, "Just let go of the misunderstanding. We are still good sisters."
Emperor Xuanwu's patience had run out: "The king has succeeded. Li Guiji is posthumously named Concubine Li and she is buried as a noble concubine. Someone is sent to the Pei family to inform her."
As for Xia He's fate, it should be a mass grave.
