381: The balance between state affairs and family affairs! (1 more)

Cheng Qing scolded Jin Rui for being heartless, but Jin Rui didn't respond.

But Cheng Qing scolded Jin Rui for being stupid, but Jin Rui couldn't accept it.

She opened her eyes and looked at Cheng Qing angrily.

"You, you don't understand!"

How could a pride of heaven like Cheng Qing, who was six yuan at the age of 17, understand the suffering of palace maids?

Why should Cheng Qing blame her from a moral high ground?

Cheng Qing really doesn't understand.

Cheng Qing closed the file in his hand.

"You are the great palace maid around the Empress. The Empress treats the palace ladies of Kunning Palace very generously and treats you very well. She will reward you with a lot of money every year. You work alone in the palace and live a good life. However, your brothers in your family are not good and are obsessed with gambling. In order to fill out the gambling debts for your brothers, you took a few pieces of ill-thinkable jewelry out of the palace and sold it. However, you were accidentally discovered by Concubine Shu, who assisted in the palace affairs, and caught a handle for you... A stupid person like you actually wanted to become a master of the world. The Empress wanted you to marry and leave the palace, which was clearly to help you."

Jin Rui's eyes widened.

Since Cheng Qing knows everything, what else is necessary to interrogate her?

Jin Rui didn't close her eyes for a few days, and she couldn't stand it at this time. She followed Cheng Qing's words, "Yes, it's Concubine Shu. She threatened me and asked me to frame the queen. She promised to let me be the queen too, and wait for the eldest prince to ascend the throne... Concubine Shu is a bitch, she lied to me, right? She threw me in Shenxing and ignored me!"

Jin Rui asked?

Xiao Yunting felt that no matter who chose Jin Rui as an insider, it would be too stupid.

Jin Rui, the palace maid, is full of loopholes, which is easier to buy.

But she could easily betray the queen who had been serving for more than ten years, and would also betray her second master!

What would you do if you don’t do it?

Cheng Qing and Shufei and the eldest prince both had a grudge. Jin Rui confessed that she was instructed by Shufei. Cheng Qing would be happy to see her success!

But things won't be that simple... Xiao Yunting's eyes flashed.

Cheng Qing did not immediately pick up the credit for storming the sky, but instead smiled at Jin Rui:

"You are really not honest. Although Concubine Shu took your handle, she didn't think about how to use it. What are the benefits of her defeating the queen? There are so many empresses in the palace, Concubine Shu may not be able to be the queen."

Before Cheng Rong died, the emperor favored Concubine Shu quite a bit. At that time, most of the court officials supported the eldest prince as the crown prince. If it were not for Cheng Rong, the emperor would have followed the flow of the eldest prince as the crown prince. After all, the eldest prince had a better image in the court and the country at that time.

If she had the chance to pull the queen off the horse, Concubine Shu would definitely not hesitate, because she would probably be the queen at that time.

Now, Concubine Shu may not be as good as Concubine Ning in front of the emperor.

Jin Rui still wanted to speak, but Cheng Qing no longer wanted to listen, so she saluted towards the door:

"Your Majesty, I have finished asking."

The emperor actually came to the Shenzheng Department in person, and Xiao Yunting quickly saluted.

"No gift."

Although the emperor heard Cheng Qing’s case of interrogation of Jin Rui, Cheng Qing still wanted to report the evidence she had, and she presented the file to the emperor:

"Since late April, the whereabouts of the palace maid Jin Rui have been recorded in the book. Where did she get the witchcraft doll and when did it be put into the Queen's makeup box? Weichen has found witnesses. Weichen and Xiao are in the Shenzheng Department for five days, and a total of nineteen inappropriate palace servants in Kunning Palace were examined, and they are also recorded in the book. Please ask Your Highness to decide."

The inner supervisor around the emperor praised the file in Cheng Qing's hand.

The emperor turned it over and handed the file to the internal supervisor, and said strangely:

"Editor Cheng, please come and listen to Jin Rui's confession. Since I am here, why don't you continue to ask?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the cause and process of the palace maid Jin Rui framed the Empress. The Weishi is recorded in the book. The Weishi and the Crown Prince investigated the case and wanted to restore the Empress's innocence, because the Empress is the mother of the country, and the decree of the mother of the country is a state affairs. The Weishi and the Crown Prince took the salary of the court and had no choice but to share the worries of the emperor. It has been confirmed that the Empress was framed. How to deal with the murderer of the framed Empress is your private matter. The Weishi and the Crown Prince dare not interfere with the affairs."

Just find out here.

Jin Rui followed her words and said that when she was bribed by Concubine Shu, Cheng Qing also wanted to nail Shu to death, but who knew what the emperor thought? After all, the emperor had covered up a scandal for the eldest prince, so it was not surprising that he would do it again.

If Cheng Qing misses one blow, he will expose his hostility to Concubine Shu and the eldest prince.

Not only did she fail to insist on identifying Concubine Shu as the real murderer behind the scenes, she also pretended to hold on to the emperor and handed over the decision-making power.

She found so many of the Shenzheng Department, and Senior Brother Meng would not find anything.

Combining the things found on both sides, the emperor can definitely confirm the murderer.

As for whether the emperor wants to punish the murderer... To be honest, Cheng Qing doesn't care. His little wife wants to kill his wife, that's the emperor's family matter.

After hearing Cheng Qing's words, the emperor did not force Cheng Qing to continue interrogation. Instead, he asked Cheng Qing and Xiao Yunting to retreat first, saying that they had worked hard for several days and could leave the palace and go home to rest. As for what they could say and what they could not say, the emperor thought Cheng Qing and Xiao Yunting knew it and there was no need to deliberately explain it.

When Cheng Qing left, he heard Jin Rui begging for mercy.

A palace maid may not care about court officials like Cheng Qing, but is afraid of the emperor from the bottom of her heart.

Cheng Qing no longer cared about how the emperor wanted to examine it.

Jin Rui didn't meet her eyes for a few days, and Cheng Qing was not much better. Although she was very relaxed when she presented the file to the emperor, if she wanted to piece together the fragmented clues into a complete logical chain, Cheng Qing's workload these days was too great.

Her fatigue is no less than that after another exam, she will only go home, take a good bath, eat delicious food, and have a good night's sleep now!

In the palace, Cheng Qing could not really relax.

In comparison, Xiao Yunting, a person who grew up in the palace, returned to the palace, even in a place like Shenxingsi, was like a fish in water. He looked sick and was not really tired.

Cheng Qing has left the palace!

The ‘Haven-win case’ must have a result.

I don’t know how many people wanted to ask Cheng Qing for information, but they still stopped moving and dared not be the first to stand out.

Master Cheng Liu sent someone to ask, and Mr. Liu said that Cheng Qing had already stopped, and Master Cheng Liu didn't force him.

Cheng Qing and Xiao Yunting left the palace first, while Meng Huaijin and the fifth prince left the Jinyiwei North Fushishi in the evening.

When the fifth prince left, the fourth prince was still not released.

"Fourth brother, brother has been more than ten years old, so you can do it yourself."

The fourth prince sneered, "Do you think you are qualified to sympathize with me? Even if I was cheated and sent a fake auspicious stone to the queen, my father will definitely forgive me."

--Yeah?

The fifth prince said nothing.

The fifth prince stayed in the Beizhenfusi District, Jinyiwei for a few days, cooperated with Meng Huaijin to complete his errand. Before he received the emperor's commendation, he walked out of the Beizhenfusi District and first received news that his biological mother Zhao Jieyu was critically ill.

Eunuch Liu, the emperor in front of the imperial court, bowed his waist:
Chapter completed!
