Chapter 77: Chapter 77
"Your Majesty's words are serious. Zixi only wants to find out the truth. As for the rest, it is up to the Holy One to decide."
Even if the queen was standing, her pressure was natural, so Ke Zixi started the trial directly.
"Explain it."
The man shivered and looked up at the queen, full of determination.
"The villain Chen Si is a groom in the palace. He has been in the palace for a year and fell in love with Concubine Lan at first sight. The villain found an opportunity to bribe the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ran errands to deliver daily necessities to Wumeng Palace. As he came and went, he fell in love with Concubine Lan in Wumeng Palace. The palace has taken care of the relationship."
"Little... I admire Empress Concubine Lan. After many times of my true love confession, Concubine Lan was finally moved by my sincerity. We truly love each other, sir."
"Master Ke used coercion and inducement to ask the villain to accuse the Queen. The villain was frightened and really didn't dare."
Ke Zixi knew that he would not tell the truth, but he did not expect that he would dare to bite him back. Su Muxue saw that Ke Zixi was not surprised, so she did not intend to intervene.
But Chen Si's confession still caused a stir.
"I didn't expect Mr. Ke to have ulterior motives. He actually wanted to threaten witnesses and throw dirty water on the Queen. You are so courageous!" Concubine Xian was the first one again, followed closely by Concubine Liang. "I looked at Ke Zixi's instrument. Tangtang, I didn’t expect that people should not be judged by their appearance.”
"Who says it's not? My fault, it seems that the Ke family's family tradition needs to be carefully investigated. If morality is not matched, it will be a moth. Sooner or later, Zifeng's foundation will be destroyed."
"I don't know what Concubine Lan did. Master Ke actually ignored the holy will for a shameless slut."
"Concubine Lan is really willing to let herself go. Wouldn't it be better to enjoy her old age in peace? She won't even spare a groom, she is so hungry~"
The virtuous and virtuous people looked at each other and smiled, not hiding the contempt in their eyes.
The man saw that his random words had such a miraculous effect, so he used his poor acting skills again.
"Today I made an appointment with Concubine Lan to spend the night together, but I didn't expect to fall into your hands. I, Chen Si, have admitted my defeat. Concubine Lan, Chen Si will take the first step. We will continue our relationship in the next life!" The man closed his eyes hard and stretched his arms. She grabbed her neck and waited for him to do it.
"What are you still doing? Ke Zixi is using his power for personal gain, why don't you take it down?" Concubine Xian looked at the unmoved Imperial Guards with a cold expression, frowned and roared, "Are you deaf?"
"Haha!" Ke Zixi smiled coldly, and then asked the subordinate next to him, "Have you remembered it?"
"My lord, I have recorded everything." That person was the scribe who was responsible for recording.
Ke Zixi nodded slightly: "Chen Si, I'm giving you one last chance to retract your confession. Are you sure you won't change it?"
When Chen Si saw this, he thought he had nothing to do. He looked like he was indifferent and said: "Master Ke, there is no need to say more. I, Chen Si, am a man and I will not collude with you. Just give up on this idea."
"Master Ke dares to threaten witnesses in public. Do you still take the Queen in your eyes?" Concubine Xian stepped forward to take responsibility, but the Queen remained silent. With the four mouths of the virtuous and virtuous Shude, she saved Many things happened.
"Concubine Xian, since the emperor has delegated power to Zi Xi, he believes in Zi Xi's ability." Ke Zixi didn't care what they said and didn't wait for Concubine Xian to come back.
"Zixi checked the shift registration of the Forbidden Army, and Queen Chenshi's people were there. After that, a set of official uniforms was missing. All the soldiers on duty in the Forbidden Army can testify to this."
"As for what the Queen's people did, I guess I don't need to tell you in detail, right?"
The queen's eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this, and she sent her people there because apart from the criminal investigation team, Dali Temple, the general of the country, the king of halberds, and the emperor, only her token could be mobilized.
If she wanted to bring people into the Misty Palace, she could only bring maids. If she wanted to bring men, she could only mix with the imperial guards.
I thought I could just bribe someone from the Imperial Guard to take a set of clothes back with me. But who knew that idiot was caught before he even took off his clothes?
No! How could he be caught in the Misty Palace? He was obviously brought in by Lin Yici from outside. Could it be that he escaped from the battle? The queen's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"I sent someone there. It was just for inspection. Could it be that just because of this, Mr. Ke thinks it was done by me?" The queen knew that this matter could not be denied, but fortunately she admitted it generously.
Ke Zixi spoke again: "Zixi naturally speaks based on evidence. In this massive search of Wumeng Palace, there were only seventy-three imperial guards dispatched, and the extra Chen Si obviously sneaked in."
"I'm afraid that someone close to the Queen has received instructions from someone, but without the Queen's approval, how can he get the warrant from the Queen?"
"Finally..." Ke Zixi looked like Chen Si was a little panicked, "Chen Yaozu, are you serious about not retracting your confession?"
Chen Sisanchi's body trembled violently. The Queen had clearly promised him that she would hide all his information. How could Ke Zixi still find out his real name?
No...it was the maid next to the queen who agreed. Speaking of which, the queen is the mother of a country. How could she allow herself to be contaminated with such unclean things?
Therefore, what her maid said was impossible to do, just like Eunuch Li, who had already passed away. He was only a groom, so how could he compare to Eunuch Li, who had followed the queen for many years?
Eunuch Li has been silenced, and he is afraid that his family members will be gone long ago.
Chen Si's eyes were cracked, and he raised his head fiercely to stare at the Queen and the maid Li'er beside her.
"Vicious woman!" Chen Si scolded angrily, and Li'er hurriedly spoke out when she saw this, her words full of threats.
"You're a lowly groom, you're so evil, how dare you covet Concubine Lan and sow discord?" Li'er raised her head slightly, "I advise you to clear Concubine Lan's name as soon as possible. If you say anything arrogant, don't blame her for being ruthless. point."
What she meant in her words was that she would either have to die and not admit it, or she would have to resist all the blame. If she dared to implicate the empress, she would die without a burial place.
Seeing that she still dared to threaten him, Chen Si twisted his body crazily and struggled to move forward, but was firmly held down by the imperial guards.
At this moment, the Imperial Guards were suspicious. Even Chen Si, a strong and strong man, could hold him down. What happened just now? He didn't hold down the weak woman Su Yue?
Before he could think about it carefully, Chen Si suppressed his eyes and said, "Master Ke, Chen Si deceived you, Chen Si is guilty, and Chen Si wants to retract his confession."
"It's too late." Ke Zixi showed no mercy, he had already given him a chance.
"It doesn't matter. I, Chen Si, have endured the torture. I just ask you to redress the grievances of Chen Si's family." Chen Si's hands were restrained, and he kowtowed heavily.
