The little palace maid refused to speak, even though Yu An was tied up with her, she still remained silent.
Yu An has been trying to get wind and rain for many years. In the palace, even the queen and the empress showed courtesy to him, the chief eunuch who served the emperor. Among all the emperors, except for the prince Yan Huisheng, the other princes fawned over him every now and then. . Not to mention the courtiers, most of them treated him as a guest of honor and did not dare to neglect him. Apart from having to serve the emperor, he could be said to have a more comfortable life than the emperor.
In the palace, the maids and eunuchs privately called him Lord Anfo.
He didn't want to end like this. He had served the emperor for many years, and the emperor couldn't live without him. As long as he gave up his merits, the emperor would forgive him for serving him for many years. The best result would be to return him to the emperor. Serve, the worst result is to leave the palace to be raised. He didn't want to end up dead.
So, he immediately explained how he got involved with this little palace maid, who set up the connection, and who was involved, all at once.
Yu An has been serving as the emperor's chief eunuch for many years, so he is naturally not a vegetarian. He allowed a little palace maid to get close to him, so he naturally wanted to find her out. In addition to not knowing that this little palace maid could kill people with a hidden golden needle, He felt that he knew the details of this little palace maid very clearly.
The emperor immediately sent people to quickly arrest everyone who Yu An said.
Of course, in addition to a bunch of slaves, the master of the palace also needs to be invited. The first ones to bear the brunt are Concubine Li and Concubine Xian. There was also another person involved, the second prince's mother and concubine, Concubine De.
The little palace maid was able to come to Yu An's side because of a little eunuch named Chunzi in the Imperial Concubine Palace.
Concubine De originally thought that this fire would not burn her body anyway. She boasted that she had never done anything, and she followed the instructions of her son, the second prince, Yan Lin, and honestly hunkered down and waited for the opportunity. But who would have thought that before the opportunity came, she would wait until the emperor invited her, and she would be sent with personal guards from the Imperial Guard.
Since the incident, the Imperial Guards have been investigated several times. Today's Imperial Guards have been thoroughly investigated. It can be said that no one dares to cause trouble at this time. Concubine Lian De wants to find out what's going on. The Imperial Guards all kept their mouths shut and only repeated one sentence: "Your Majesty has invited Concubine De." Concubine De was unsure, but she could not send a message to her son, so she could only follow her to see the emperor with her heart in mind.
Concubine Xian, Concubine De, and Concubine Li met at the entrance of the palace. They looked at each other and felt that something was not good.
When they entered the inner hall, the emperor suddenly became angry when he saw the three people. He asked them what their intentions were.
The three people were the mothers and concubines of the three princes, but they were involved in this major case together. Facing the emperor's interrogation, Concubine Xian finally understood what the eldest princess, Ning Yao, had done, and was speechless for a moment. It was only then that Concubine Li realized that her father and second uncle were involved in such a big scandal. In the case, she was dead, her face was pale, and she didn't know how to argue. Only Concubine De directly cried out that she was wronged, saying that the little eunuch named Chunzi was not instigated by her.
But as luck would have it, the little eunuch named Chunzi was already dead when he was found, and Concubine De was unable to defend herself.
The case was tried for most of a day, and after everyone was finally interrogated, the evidence still pointed to Rei concubine. After hearing that Chunzi was dead, the little palace maid also spoke up, and confessed with a gray face that she was ordered by Rei concubine. When she was kicked out of the Beauty Palace, it was Li's concubine's fault. If she wanted her to disrupt the palace, it would be better for the Queen, the Xian Concubine, and the Virtuous Concubine to fight each other, so that the Crown Prince, the First Prince, and the Second Prince would end badly. Her son The fourth prince was a good fisherman and profited.
Concubine Li cursed with a white face, "You little bitch, you are so slanderous and framed."
The little palace maid took advantage of Concubine Li to approach her, bit the hairpin on Concubine Li's head, and then swallowed it into her mouth. In an instant, the tip of the hairpin pierced her throat, and the little palace maid died instantly.
Li Bin screamed in horror.
This time, Libi was really at a loss for words.
The emperor shouted angrily with a stern face, "Lei Concubine! Why don't you recruit her from the ground up!"
Concubine Li fell to the ground, crying out with a pale face, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am not my concubine, how dare I..."
"Don't you dare? All the evidence points to you!" The emperor was so angry that he kicked Concubine Li over, "Someone, give this bitch to me..."
"Father," Yan Hui echoed, "Since Concubine Li is claiming injustice, please ask Concubine Li to provide evidence of her innocence!"
The emperor pulled back his feet, but after hearing this, he glared at Li Bin angrily, "Tell me, how can you prove your innocence to me?"
Concubine Li was frightened and frightened. She fell to the ground and murmured: "I prove my innocence? How can I prove my innocence... I prove my innocence..."
She shed tears as she spoke. Her natal family was involved in the Imperial Army case, and her father and second uncle had committed suicide. She was also involved in the murder of Zhao Laoer and Zhao Fei, as well as the assassination of Princess Sheng'an and the Queen. Now that The little palace maid is dead, and she bit her before she died. However, she has indeed beaten the Queen, the Concubine Xian, and the Concubine Virtue to tear them apart, and then implicated the Crown Prince, the First Prince, and the Second Prince, and allowed her son, the Fourth Prince, to benefit. thoughts.
Concubine Li could not produce any other evidence to prove her innocence for a while. She only looked at the emperor with tears and asked: "Your Majesty, can I prove my innocence even if I die?"
The emperor's anger continued, "You have done such a disaster and want to die?"
Li Bin's face turned completely gray.
There was silence in the hall for a moment, except for the miserable cry of Li Bin.
Princess Sheng'an took a look at the sky and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, everyone is tired after the case has been tried so far. Why don't we give it up today?"
Princess Sheng'an did not say anything about closing the case, only that it would be settled today.
The emperor was filled with anger, "Bring them all to me...", he was about to say the sky prison, but then remembered that the sky prison was not reliable now, and even he, the emperor, did not dare to trust it, so he stopped talking.
At this time, King Ruian answered, "Your Majesty, send the imperial guards to guard me. Let's keep him in the palace for now!"
After all, such a big case cannot be closed easily. Even if the case is closed to Li Bin, all those involved will have to be punished. Which one is more serious, whether it should be dealt with in accordance with the law, or how to deal with it, can only be determined after discussing with important officials in the court. After all, the mothers and concubines of the three princes were involved.
This is a huge case!
The emperor was already dizzy with anger and nodded, "That's it for now!"
The eldest princess Sheng'an said goodbye and left the palace, and Su Rong naturally followed her. The emperor glanced at Su Rong and wanted to keep her in the palace to talk, but he was really not in the mood today, so he said to Su Rong: "Come back to the palace another day. Come and talk to me."
I didn’t say that I would go to Shen’s Mansion to see you another day.
Su Rong nodded and agreed.
