Chapter 32 Interrogating Xiaolan 1
"Bang!" The door to the room was kicked open, interrupting Bi Yuntao's understanding movements. Xiaolan happily turned around to look at the visitor with a pretty face full of tears.
"You brat, you actually tied up a girl and went home. If I don't break your legs today, I will no longer be your mother." The imperial concubine rushed in angrily and pinched Bi Yuntao's ears.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! It's gone, it's gone." Bi Yuntao twisted his face in pain and covered his ears that were pinched by his mother-in-law.
"If you drop it, just drop it. My mother thought that what happened yesterday taught you a lesson, but I didn't expect that you are still so unbearable." The imperial concubine grabbed Bi Yuntao's ear and walked out, "You go and let that woman go. "
"No!" Bi Yuntao refused directly, regardless of the pain in his ears. "Let me see whoever dares to let go. I will sink him into the moat!" The servants who were about to come in to rescue Xiaolan were so frightened that they did not dare to move when they heard Bi Yuntao's threat.
"Okay! I have gained courage, my wings have become stronger, and I dare to disobey my mother and concubine!" The imperial concubine's hand strength increased a bit.
"Ah! It hurts! Concubine, please let me go first. There is a reason for this. Listen to my explanation. After I explain, you are punishing me!" Bi Yuntao really couldn't bear this tugging. He was in so much pain that he kept begging for mercy.
"Bang!" The door to the room closed, leaving a disappointed Xiaolan with messy clothes, tears on her face.
Xiaolan looked at the closed door and listened to Bi Yuntao who kept begging for mercy outside the door. She sniffed and exhaled, calming down her disappointed thoughts and thinking: "Although I am not his person, I am still escaping temporarily." A calamity has passed. You must find a way to escape while no one is taking care of you now, otherwise if you wait for King Qi to explain clearly, you will be insulted by him sooner or later."
"Creak." The door was pushed open, and when he saw the two maids who came in standing next to him, he fell into despair again. No matter how Xiaolan spoke, she didn't answer, just stared at Xiaolan motionless.
In the main hall, Bi Yuntao kept rubbing his painful ears, gritting his teeth and looking at the honest left prime minister drinking tea. This old immortal, it's him again, why is he everywhere, every time he does something good? They all came out to interrupt. Is interrupting other people's good deeds an inherited skill of your Zuoxiangfu? ? ! !
"Tell me, the concubine has promised you to send someone to watch that woman. If you don't tell me why, I will break your legs." The imperial concubine took a sip of hot tea angrily.
Bi Yuntao told about the gambling house, and then about Xiaolan's assassination. Of course, with the left prime minister standing by, he couldn't tell everything, so he only highlighted the key points.
"You mean, you won the bet and won back Xiaolan's deed of betrayal. Then on the way back to the palace, Xiaolan took advantage of you and assassinated you. Then you were rescued by Ruolang, and then brought back to the palace. .Then what are you going to do with that maid Xiaolan?" Huang Guifei asked after reviewing the cause and effect.
The left prime minister also put down his tea cup and spoke slowly. "Would you like me to ask the interrogation experts from the Criminal Department to come over for interrogation?"
"No, I can just interrogate myself. I was about to ask about this little girl just now. Who would have thought that you would come here? Now that it's fine, we have to interrogate again." The imperial concubine glanced at Bi Yuntao suspiciously. When I saw him telling lies seriously, I couldn't help but hold my forehead with a headache. The scene in the room was nothing like an interrogation. He was tied to a chair, and he had just begun to take off Xiaolan's clothes. He was clearly planning to sleep with the little girl.
"I don't know why the Prime Minister Zuo came here late at night, what's the point?!" Bi Yuntao became very angry when he saw this damn father-in-law.
"Ruoxi specially asked me to come and tell King Qi that today the Holy Emperor issued an imperial edict. The meaning is obvious. The battle for the right to inherit the throne will only become more chaotic in the future. The Emperor no longer intends to balance the power behind the several princes, and deliberately deprived the two of them. With the prince's military power and what happened yesterday, the second prince will probably kill you. Let King Qi be careful about the second prince. I don't want Ruo Xi to be sad because of worry." Zuo Xiang thought about his daughter and his speculation. After coming up with this conclusion, he kept begging himself to come over and remind him of this evil obstacle with a worried look on his face. Even after he refused, he cried and fussed, feeling depressed.
"Ah! It turns out that Ruo Xi asked the left prime minister to remind me. Ruo Xi really thinks about her husband. In a few days, I will come to thank Ruo Xi in person." Bi Yuntao's face changed when he thought of that beautiful lady. The worried expression is filled with endless tenderness in his heart.
"Prime Minister Zuo, please continue discussing important matters with your mother and concubine. I am going to interrogate Xiaolan, so I will leave first." Bi Yuntao recovered his mind and left.
"Creak!" The study door was pushed open again. Xiaolan's face changed drastically when she saw the person coming, and her eyes were filled with fear.
"You all go down and bring me two basins of warm water. I'll just leave the dishes and chopsticks here. I'll clean them up tomorrow." "Yes!" The two maids responded and left.
Bi Yuntao sat down and looked at Xiaolan in front of him with a playful face.
Soon, the servants brought two basins full of warm water and stepped back. Bi Yuntao stood up, pinched Xiaolan's chin, raised Xiaolan's head vigorously, tilted her pretty head slightly, and slowly approached Xiaolan's soft breasts. lip.
"No, don't!" Xiaolan twisted her head crazily, her chin hurt as if it had been crushed, trying to get rid of Bi Yuntao's grasp.
"I don't want it, okay, as you wish, but you have to tell me who sent you to kill me." Bi Yuntao came close to Xiaolan's soft lips and said slowly. Seeing that Xiaolan kept silent, he smiled and didn't mind, and continued: "Don't worry, as long as you tell me, I won't be scornful of you anymore, and I won't kill you. After all, you are guilty of attempted assassination. Not until death." Xiaolan still kept her mouth shut, the fear and panic in her eyes were gone, replaced by determination.
"Don't tell me?! Okay, it is like an orchid, with pride. But I like to deal with tough bones like you the most. This is interesting, especially for a woman like you who cares about chastity. It is particularly pleasing to the eye."
Bi Yuntao put down his hand holding Xiaolan, turned around and scooped a bowl of water, and said: "I just ate a lot of orchid cakes. I must be thirsty. Let me give you some water." Bi Yuntao licked his lips lightly. , holding the water bowl, looking at Xiaolan with a stern expression.
Xiaolan shuddered when Bi Yuntao stared at her, and shook her head crazily, "I won't say it, and I won't say it even to my death. Aren't you just going to waterboard me? The worst case scenario is that I'll die." There was a hint in her tone. Be decisive.
"Don't worry, you are such a cute little beauty, I can't bear to kill you." As he said that, Bi Yuntao pinched Xiaolan's pretty face with his five fingers, picked up the water bowl and poured it into Xiaolan's pinched mouth. Add warm water.
Xiaolan shook her head crazily. Not much water was poured into the bowl, and the spilled water wetted Bi Yuntao's clothes. Bi Yuntao didn't mind this, after all, he had two basins of warm water.
Bi Yuntao's evil deeds did not stop until the full basin of warm water bottomed out. Then he picked up the tie that he had previously untied, balled it up into a ball, and stuffed it into Xiaolan's mouth regardless of Xiaolan's struggle. Then he changed out of his wet clothes in front of Xiaolan.
When Xiaolan saw Bi Yuntao begin to take off her clothes, she burst into tears, shook her head crazily, and kept shouting, but her mouth was gagged, and all the sounds turned into whimpering, and she didn't know whether she was begging for mercy or cursing. . It wasn't until he saw Bi Yuntao put on clean clothes again that he stopped whimpering and shouting.
After Bi Yuntao changed his clothes, he was not paying attention to Xiaolan, but was contemplating the purpose of the emperor's decree today. For a while, the room fell into silence, with only Xiaolan's inaudible sobs.
What is the purpose of the emperor's decree? Why didn't the third prince receive punishment or reward? I can't figure it out.
The second prince was deprived of military power because of what happened yesterday. He will definitely hold a grudge. He will definitely oppose me everywhere, and he may even send someone to assassinate him.
Why was the eldest prince also punished? The emperor is the one who values the most important prince, and the support from the court is also the loudest. Since the emperor wants to break the balance and intentionally weaken their power, why can the eldest prince continue to observe the government affairs?
Well, to put it straight, it seems that the eldest prince is still in power now. Although the second prince has been deprived of military power, he still has many supporters. The third prince is almost the same as before, doing things in secret, and then there is I only have the title of King Qi and nothing else.
But the Prime Minister Zuo also said that the battle for the right to inherit the throne will be more intense. The first thing that is certain is that the second prince will definitely take the initiative to take action against me. Maybe the third prince will also take action against me secretly and put the blame on the second prince.
Although the eldest prince helped me yesterday, but now I think about it, he had ulterior motives. However, it did give me a friendly signal. I should be trustworthy, but I have to be careful. The eldest prince is now grounded, so he can avoid some overt and covert fights, or maybe He will secretly attack me again. After all, if he kills me, he will have an excuse to blame the second prince, and then reap the benefits.
In other words, I am the gunpowder, the second prince is the fuse, the eldest prince and the third prince are the holders of the fire. If anyone lights the fuse, I will die without a burial place.
Oh shit! I knew that it would be impossible to hold a beautiful woman back so easily.
Thinking of this, Bi Yuntao hammered the table angrily.
"Woooo~" came the whimpering sound, which made Bi Yuntao put away his thoughts, turned to look at Xiaolan, and showed an unknown smile...
