The crowd's voices suddenly stopped and they all turned their gazes.
"Fuyunqing, even if you hate Yu'er, you can't push me off the pedestal..." Concubine Yu's hands were covered with blood, her face was pale, and she was breathing heavily, "Here comes someone! Fuyunqing, who will kill Long Si, Arrest me!"
The Imperial Guards came forward and immediately shackled Fu Yunqing's hands and feet.
In public, pushing away concubines and causing Long Si to miscarry is a capital crime anyway!
Everyone was secretly frightened and talked one after another:
"Fu Yunqing seems to be a smart man, how can he push Concubine Yu?"
"It's completely over now."
"Your Majesty will never let her go."
Qi Chengyi threw down the tea cup with a clang, stood up suddenly, and took a few steps forward.
Jiang Xingwei also rushed over.
Concubine Yu stared at Jiang Xingwei and Qi Chengyi, crying and asking: "What? Is it possible that the Eighth Prince and Governor Jiang still want to speak for Fu Yunqing? What is your relationship with her!"
Jiang Xingwei took a step forward, bowed his hands and said, "I feel sad for what happened to the empress, and I dare not speak for Miss Fu. It's just that Miss Fu is not a narrow-minded person, and she will definitely not push the empress. Maybe..."
"What is Xu? What else do you want to argue for her?" Concubine Yu cried and shouted, "In front of everyone, there are all witnesses! Everyone saw that she pushed me off the tower!"
"Maybe the pavilion is slippery." Jiang Xingwei gritted his teeth and spoke for Fu Yunqing.
He has never participated in partisan disputes and has always kept to himself. Today is the first time that he has made a difference for others.
Qi Chengyi said: "Concubine Yu, there are doubts about this matter. If Miss Fu is thrown into prison now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to silence everyone. We have to ask the queen to make a decision! If Concubine Yu makes the decision alone, it would be a bit arrogant."
"You——" Concubine Yu was furious.
Lin Yuezhou stood behind everyone, silently observing all this, squinting his eyes slightly.
Concubine Yu was so angry that she wanted to convict Fu Yunqing. She really didn't look like someone who had a miscarriage.
Qi Wenjue was soon alarmed...
Qi Wenjue's eyebrows were furrowed into the character "Chuan", his sleeves and hands were clasped behind his waist, and he came slowly.
Concubine Yu's hands were stained with blood, and she knelt down tremblingly at Qi Wenjue's feet: "I beg your majesty to make the decision for me. Fu Yunqing caused me to have a miscarriage and lost my dragon heir. That was my child... I haven't had time yet." Meet him once..."
Chen Yushi from the crowd also came over, knelt down and kowtowed: "Fu Yunqing harmed Long Si, it is not a pity to die! Your Majesty, please put her in prison!"
Qi Wenjue looked at Fu Yunqing. He remembered that this was Fu Hexiao's orphan. He had ruined Qi Yu's appearance some time ago. Why did he cause Concubine Yu to have a miscarriage? He doesn't look good.
Standing in the crowd, Fu Yunqing felt that his brain was in chaos, and the faint ringing of bells kept ringing in his ears...
"Ding ding ding..."
And the mother Gu on her left arm was also squirming.
Fu Yunqing shook his chaotic head, his fingernails cut into his palms, and he regained his consciousness with a sharp pain. He knelt down and said, "I never pushed Concubine Yu! Just now, Concubine Yu grabbed my hand, and for some reason, the empress suddenly He slipped and fell down the pavilion..."
"Come here, put Fu Yunqing in jail and hand it over to the Yushitai for review." Murdering Long Si was not a small crime, Qi Wenjue ordered.
Yushitai? ! Qi Wenjue handed over the power of trial to Concubine Yu's biological father, Chen Yushi.
After all, she was the daughter of Chen Yushi and the heir of Concubine Yu.
"Brother, wait a minute." Qi Sui'an stepped forward quickly and saluted, "Yun Qing is my companion, and I know her nature well. She is not such a person. Please, brother, please hand it over to the three divisions to investigate thoroughly." …”
"Wait a minute!" Another strong voice sounded. Li Shuhe, who had tidied up his appearance, walked over majestically, glanced at Concubine Yu coldly, and protected Fu Yunqing behind him:
"My concubine and the eldest princess have the same idea. There is doubt about this matter. If it is handed over to the Yushitai for trial, I am afraid that Chen Yushi will be biased. It is better to have a joint trial with the three departments. The Zhenfu Division, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Punishment will try it together, and the Yushitai will supervise."
Qi Wenjue was noncommittal, pursed his thin lips into a serious line, and said slowly: "Pushing Concubine Yu to step down and causing Long Si to miscarry is an attempt to harm the royal bloodline and should be killed..."
Qi Chengyi, Jiang Xingwei, Qi Suian, and He Chunru all looked at Qi Wenjue!
Qi Chengyi played with the animal bone chain on his wrist, his face was more solemn than ever before, and his lowered eyelashes hid the murderous aura surging in his eyes...
Maybe it’s time to change the emperor of Qi State...
Qi Wenjue didn't say he wanted to kill Fuyunqing before, but when Li Shuhe came, he wanted to kill Fuyunqing.
Li Shuhe understood better than anyone else that Qi Wenjue was using Fu Yunqing to put pressure on her. Qi Wenjue needed Li Shuhe to beg him and Li Shuhe to bow to him.
Li Shuhe clenched his fists slightly and knelt down to salute in public: "I am willing to be your guarantee for Yun Qing. Please give her a chance. The three departments will interrogate and find out the truth."
Qi Wenjue curled his lips, leaned down to help her, and whispered in her ear at a volume that only two people could hear: "I gave her a chance, so how should you thank me?"
"Evening, Fengluan Palace." Li Shuhe gritted his teeth and closed his eyes for a moment.
"Okay." Qi Wenjue put his arms around Li Shuhe's waist with satisfaction, gently helped her up, and held her in his arms. His tone suddenly changed, "Fuyunqing is the orphan of Hexiao. It cannot be dealt with hastily. It should be handed over to the three departments for review."
Fu Yunqing knelt in the crowd and suddenly realized something...
She is not strong enough, or even fragile enough to withstand a turmoil in the imperial power game.
…
Concubine Yu was pregnant and suddenly had a miscarriage, so there must be fraud. But the incident happened suddenly. Before Fu Yunqing could think of a way to deal with it, he was handcuffed and imprisoned in the Zhenfusi Prison.
Zhenfu Division, Dalao.
Fu Yunqing was wearing a gray-white gown with prison characters. He had removed his hairpin and his hair was like a waterfall of black hair scattered around his thin waist. He was sitting on a haystack hugging his knees. His slender wrists were wearing heavy shackles with red marks.
The male prisoner with moustaches opposite him whistled at her, touched his chin and said, "Hey, here comes a beauty! Beauty, smile, take off some clothes and have a look!"
"Get lost." Jiang Xingwei, who was striding over, cursed.
"?" Jin Yiwei froze on the spot, seeing his commander yelling for the first time.
The male prisoner was so frightened that he was gagged by several guards in uniform, punched and kicked before being pushed into the small dark room.
The lock fell to the ground, Jiang Xingwei walked into the prison and opened a food box.
The first layer is peach blossom cake, the second layer is peach meat cut into small pieces, the third layer is crispy roast duck, the fourth layer is braised pork with pickled vegetables and fried rice with eggs...
Jiang Xingwei said: "I made it with my own hands, help the girl to try it."
Fu Yunqing had no appetite. He was about to overthrow Chen Yushi and his party, but was framed by Concubine Yu. He was only one step away, but was knocked into the bottom again.
There was no one behind her to rely on.
Jiang Xingwei said: "Don't worry, Miss Fu. As a commander, I will correct the law and find out the truth."
Fu Yunqing lowered his eyes and took a bite of the peach meat: "It's fate, I killed Long Si, how can I escape legal sanctions? Mr. Jiang, please go back, I want to be alone."
"You..." Jiang Xingwei felt that the Fuyunqing in front of him was not the Fuyunqing he had known before.
The Fu Yunqing I knew in the past would always get up even if he was stuck in a mire or swamp.
But now she...
But it seemed like he had accepted his fate.
Jiang Xingwei had an impulse coming out of nowhere: "Don't worry, girl, leave it to me."
Fu Yunqing was a little confused: "Leave it to you?"
"If you pushed Concubine Yu, I would hide the truth and save you from prison. If you didn't push Concubine Yu, I would vindicate you."
Fu Yunqing nodded vaguely. How could she feel that her friendship with Jiang Xingwei had not reached this level yet? She still said politely: "Thank you, Brother Xingwei."
"You should take care of yourself in prison and wait for news from me." Jiang Xingwei warned and left the prison.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Qi Chengyi arrived.
Fu Yunqing stood up, grasped the iron fence tightly, and shouted: "Your Majesty the Eighth Prince."
Shen Huaixu opened the iron lock, and Qi Chengyi walked into the prison and looked at the food box on the ground: "Has Jiang Xingwei been here?"
"I came here just now, but walls have ears, so I didn't tell him the truth."
Qi Chengyi also picked up a food box, nodded and said: "There are indeed Concubine Yu's eyes and ears in the prison, and they have just been cleaned up."
"Besides, the male prisoner who molested you is dead." Qi Chengyi opened the food box and placed it in front of her.
"How did you die?" Fuyunqing asked curiously, "It only lasted less than half an hour, how could you die?"
"He was killed by me." Qi Chengyi's voice was indifferent, "The car was broken and he died."
Fu Yunqing bit into the peach flesh and was slightly startled.
Qi Chengyi took out a smooth green jade hairpin from his sleeve and looked at her loose green hair.
When he was arrested and imprisoned, he took off all his hairpin rings and brocade clothes. Fu Yunqing scratched his hair in embarrassment and said, "Do you have anything to say, Your Highness, about Concubine Yu's pregnancy?"
Qi Chengyi stood behind Fu Yunqing, held her supple green hair, and awkwardly tied it into a single bun with a green jade hairpin, while saying: "The doctor Jiang who diagnosed Concubine Yu's pregnancy was a poor student sponsored by Chen Yushi in the past. "
"Lin Yuezhou said that the sachet on Concubine Yu contains musk raw materials. Musk can cause miscarriage. If Concubine Yu is pregnant, she will definitely not use musk sachets due to her cautious temperament."
Fu Yunqing listened to Qi Chengyi's words, her beautiful eyes showed deep meaning, and she smiled calmly: "None of this is important, the most important thing is..."
"Concubine Yu came to Kuishui yesterday."
"How do you know?" Qi Chengyi discovered that Fu Yunqing was smarter than she thought.
He thought that Fu Yunqing would be suddenly framed by Concubine Yu, that something unexpected happened, or that a catastrophe was imminent, so he would definitely panic and even ask for help from him. However, he did not expect that Fu Yunqing looked calm in this prison, as if he had already made up his mind.
