Chapter 26 A gap was born
"Your Majesty, look." Su Chi walked out of the pavilion, holding the bracelet that Song Wu lost: "This was found by the slave in Mei Xiang's belt."
The jade bracelet was originally in the sleeves of Mei Xiangshu, but when she was pushing her, everyone was in a mess, so she had to borrow flowers to offer Buddha and return the jade bracelet to her.
Mei Xiang's face turned pale, and it became more expensive with a thump.
"Gui Ren Li, what do you say?" Song Heng's voice was cold, without any emotion.
"Your Majesty, I am not good at restraining my servants, so please forgive me." The bracelet was on Mei Xiang, and the evidence was as strong as a mountain. If she defended Mei Xiang again, it would be useless.
Could it be that Mei Xiang had not had time to put the bracelet on Yang Xuqiu? The queen said at this moment: "Your Majesty, it's no wonder that Sister Li is so shallow."
"Mei Xiang has been with me for many years, so I also asked the emperor to give up his temper."
If Concubine Li didn't plead for mercy, she would inevitably feel cold in her heart. Who would work hard for her in the future?
But Su Chi said again: "Your Majesty, I have found not only jade bracelets on Mei Xiang, but also this one."
The red bellyband looks ordinary, but the back is embroidered with a picture of the erotic palace.
Yang Lin glanced at it, her face turned red, and she immediately turned around: "Your Majesty, this girl may have a secret relationship with someone. If she doesn't investigate thoroughly, wouldn't it be a corrupting atmosphere?"
If it was Yang Xuqiu's disaster just now, it would have become a worry for Concubine Li.
The harem was really quiet for a day. Song Heng gently pressed his eyebrows: "Su Chi, I know your methods, be sure to ask the truth from her."
Mei Xiang's mouth tampered and dragged it aside. The soldering iron touched the skin and emitted a unique smell. Her painful voice passed through the cloth and turned into a whimper.
The emperor executed in front of these people, how could he know that it was not a warning to the people in the harem?
As soon as the cloth in his mouth was taken down, Mei Xiang cried and said, "I said it was Mr. Suzhong. Concubine Li asked me to eat with Mr. Suzhong to learn about the situation around the emperor."
Suzhong is a commonly used eunuch around the emperor. Although he is not as good as Eunuch Changqing who grew up serving the emperor, he is also considered a shameful person.
At this moment, Su Zhong was next to the emperor.
He has been feeling panicked since his bellyband was found out, and he really can't escape.
The emperor smiled without being angry: "Okay, I actually set my mind on the people around me. Guiren Li, how do you explain?"
"Your Majesty, I was confused for a moment. I thought that Mei Xiang was serving me well and wanted her to stay by my side for a long time, so I came up with such a confused idea." Li Guiren cried moaningly.
When a palace maid reaches age, it can be released to marry. Which palace maid is willing to have a good relationship with the eunuch?
"Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince asks for your visit."
Even Song Jingyu has come, probably to plead for his mother.
"Father, please forgive your mother. She was just confused for a moment." Song Jingyu knelt down directly at the emperor's feet, regardless of his prince's face.
"Your Majesty, the palace rules are strict and there is no reason to let go easily." Concubine Shun said.
There are eunuchs and palace maids in the harem to eat together, but such things are not allowed, and once discovered, they are a serious crime.
Yang Xuqiu stood up and said, "Your Majesty Li and the princess just now said that I stole the jade bracelet, but now I searched it on Ningshuang. My daughter is innocent, but it is still unknown whether there is any instructions behind this."
Concubine Li looked at Yang Xuqiu hatefully, and her eye drops were very timely.
Why did the bracelet be delivered by Suzhong when Yang Xuqiu was there? And Ningshuang kept following Yang Xuqiu. Is there really no plan?
The king was very thoughtful. Thinking of this, his eyes changed when he looked at Li Guiren and Song Jingyu.
Song Jingyu's heart tightened: "Miss Yang, you are really eloquent, but you can't speak."
He was betting that the emperor would not not give face to his son and concubine in front of outsiders.
"It's annoying to keep this slave. Let's take it down and be an adult pig. Miss Yang was wronged. The queen prepared some gifts to shock Miss Yang."
He turned to look at Guiren Li: "I saw Guiren Li's body was uncomfortable, so it would be better to take a few more days off and don't come out if you have nothing to do." This is a disguised confinement, but this punishment is already very light.
Sure enough, Song Jingyu was right, the emperor must protect his son no matter how much.
After saying that, the emperor left with his sleeves. He wanted to relax, but he tried a lawsuit, which was really annoying!
Song Jingyu helped Li Guiren kneeling on the ground and passed by Yang Xuqiu: "Miss Yang is a good method."
"I will just give you the best reward in my own way."
She knew about Su Zhong and Mei Xiang in her previous life, so today she used a jade bracelet to attract this matter, so she should charge some interest.
"There will be a long time to go, let's take a look."
When Yang Xuqiu entered the palace, the car was empty, but when he returned, it was filled with stuff. The queen was generous.
At night, in Jingci Palace, the prince and the queen were having a meal together.
Song Jingyan has heard about what happened today: "I met the girl of the Yang family last time and didn't expect that she was a ruthless person." Not only could she escape unscathed, but she also cheated Guiren Li.
The queen shook her head and said, "What I am more worried about is actually the mother and son of Concubine Li."
"What do you say about the Queen Mother?"
The queen put down the silver chopsticks: "I know how hard it is for the people around the emperor to win over you, but Guiren Li can do things about Mei Xiang and Su Zhong without you and I know it, and it is still easy to leak. It seems that I underestimated her."
Li Guiren was beautiful, and she knew that she was not a thing in the pool, so she designed her to make the emperor feel ashamed of her. She thought that Li Guiren, who was Li at that time, promised to favor the six palaces, and she could also have more help in the harem to compete for favor, but unexpectedly, she was so timid and afraid that the emperor became more and more disliked.
It would be a blessing to have a prince.
It seems that today is not much the same as what she thinks.
"My mother, you have been worried about it. Concubine Li has always been dependent on you. Besides, my sixth brother has always been respectful and dedicated to me. Besides, I am already the crown prince, the future crown prince, and the queen mother is at ease."
Li Guiren has no good mother's family, she is just a maid. This is Song Jingyu's biggest shortcoming and it is difficult to make up for anyway, so Song Jingyan is not worried.
The queen sighed, saying so, but how can the prince’s desire for the throne be underestimated? Are there fewer disputes between brothers?
Li Guiren has always been cautious. Doesn’t she want her son to become the next emperor and be proud from now on?
"You don't want to leave everything to Xiaoliu. If you have contact with power for a long time, you will inevitably have a big ambition."
"My son knows."
