Chapter 32 Questioning
The princess made atonement. Yes, it was Mrs. Juan in the West Garden who sent her maid Wanju to say that Mrs. Juan was unwell and had a bad appetite. She asked the old woman to cook some of her favorite meals and send them to her!" Mrs. Wang said as she knelt on the ground tremblingly.
As he spoke, he carefully glanced at it and found that there was no response. Then he continued, "I wanted to bring the princess food, but that night Ju kept saying that Mrs. Juan had a bad appetite these days. If I blame it on the old slave,
I can’t afford it either!”
"Well, you old lady Wang, you don't dare to offend Mrs. Juan, but you dare to offend our princess, right?"
She couldn't scream, so she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "Princess, please spare my life, I don't mean this! Mrs. Juan has always been a popular person around the prince, I don't dare to offend you..."
"Oh... What do you mean, Granny Yi, that I am just an unfavored princess? No matter how high I sit, I can't compare to the favored concubine, right?" Nalan heard Granny Wang say this from afar,
She asked with a slight smile on her lips. When Mrs. Wang heard this, her heart skipped a beat. When she realized it, she wished she could slap herself in the mouth. How could she have forgotten how powerful this person in front of her was!
"Wang Po, I'm asking you one more time! Did anyone besides Wan Ju come near the kitchen that day? You'd better make it clear, otherwise you will inevitably suffer a physical torture..." Nalan Yaoyuan didn't talk nonsense to her.
Based on her intuition, she guessed that it was the woman from Xiyuan who had done this. How could she be willing to be suppressed like this by herself? But she dared to go all out and poison herself. She was really not half as courageous!
Listening to Nalan Yaoyuan's cold voice, the princess still felt chilly even in this hot summer day. When her head hit the ground, "Old slave didn't dare to hide it from the princess. Indeed, only Wan Ju appeared around the kitchen that day.
After what the princess said just now, the old slave remembered something..." The old lady tilted her head and thought back, "Wan Ju did have something wrong that night. I put the food box on the table, and she asked the old slave
I even took a look at who this was prepared for, but the old slave was there right away! I didn’t see any unusual behavior..."
"Qiu'er, Dong'er, you two go to Xiyuan and call Wanju here, saying that I asked her to come here for questioning! If the people in Xiyuan don't let you go, you two should know what to do..." Nalan Yaoyao
Giving them a look, Qiu'er and Dong'er hurriedly took orders and walked out.
"Okay, get up and talk!" Nalan looked at Wang Po from a distance, still kneeling on the ground and waving her hands.
"Thank you, Princess..." Mrs. Wang didn't seem to expect that Nalan Yaoyuan would be so easy to talk to. She was actually a little stunned. Fortunately, someone next to her tugged her sleeve and she realized what she was doing and stood up to thank her.
"You all listen carefully, I don't want to say it again. I don't care if you are convinced by me or not, but I am the second-ranked Princess Jing in this palace after the prince. So what about a favored woman? But
Even if you are a concubine, you can follow them and sniff behind them?" Nalan said from a distance and snorted coldly from his nose. "Even if I am favored, I am just a concubine. Can you be more powerful than this princess? You guys
You'd better keep your eyes open to see clearly who is the real master in this palace! I won't pursue these trivial matters for the time being, but if I let this concubine hear it again, you will still take advantage of me in private.
Compared with the status of those ladies, I don’t mind letting you resell to a slave again! The men are slaves and the women are prostitutes. You will never have the energy to turn around again in your lifetime. Do you understand?"
"Slave, I understand..." The uniform voice made Nalan Yaoyuan feel a little better. He looked at everyone, "Don't do it for me, if you catch me, I won't mind killing the chicken and showing it to the monkey..." After saying that, he waved.
Waving his hands, "Except for Wang Po who stays, you all can go down!"
"Slave, slave, please retire!" Nalan Yaoyuan's uniform voice made Nalan Yaoyuan quite satisfied. I don't know how powerful this kind of threat is! No, it's really killing me! Nalan Yaoyuan thought this in his heart, otherwise he would really think that she was just joking.
Play.
After a short while, Wan Ju was brought there, followed by Mrs. Na Juan. Ever since Nalan Yaoyuan whipped her once, she never dared to wear red clothes again. No, she was very graceful in a floral dress.
She came over and saw Nalan sitting on it. Although her heart was filled with anger, she still knelt down to her and said, "I would like to pay my respects to the princess..."
"Hmm..." Nalan Yaoyuan just responded lightly, "Concubine Juan, I would like to ask the maid behind you a few words, is it okay?"
"Princess, do you want to ask Wan Ju about going to the kitchen that night? This is indeed what I ordered. Recently, I have a bad appetite and want to change my taste from time to time. That night, I suddenly wanted to eat dumplings, so I asked Wan Ju to give up.
The cook is preparing over there! I never thought that the princess would be poisoned. Please let the princess know about this! Even if I have the courage, I would not dare to poison you..." Concubine Juan doesn't wait for Nalan.
When Yaoyao asked, he spoke out on his own, thus blocking Nalan Yaoyao's mouth.
Nalan looked at her anxious look from afar, and it became more and more obvious that he was trying to hide it, but he was not in a hurry. He just glanced at her indifferently, "I didn't say that your room must have done this, so why bother to explain so urgently?"
