178. Chapter 178 Ye family's bank note

Nangong Ao looked at Ye Wange and said, "Let me send the queen back to her dormitory to rest!"

"Okay." Ye Wange responded softly.

The place where the venison banquet was held was a small courtyard of Funing Palace, to the west of Ye Wange's courtyard. Now there was a death here, and Ye Wange was pregnant, so it was really not suitable to stay for a long time. Nangong Ao had long wanted Ye Wange to avoid it, but he was afraid.

Doing that would make the other concubines dissatisfied, so Ye Wange, like those concubines, waited for the matter to be resolved before returning.

Nangong Ao was in a heavy mood along the way, and Ye Wange also looked frightened and anxious.

Ye Wange recalled He Yingchun's screams and panic at the moment he was taken to prison, and she laughed heartily in her heart.

Ye Wange's absent-minded state seemed to be stunned. Nangong Ao looked at it and asked worriedly, "Queen, are you scared?"

Ye Wange was enjoying He Yingchun's exhilarating sight of dying struggle. When she heard Nangong Ao's voice, she immediately came back to her senses, lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "These fighting concubines in the harem have learned it now."

The cruelty of it.”

Nangong Ao sighed inwardly after hearing this and did not continue talking about this sensitive topic.

Seeing that Nangong Ao was silent, Ye Wange asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, how did you know that Concubine Ying was the murderer?"

Nangong Ao heard the answer, "An Chang vomited blood when he died, which shows that he died from poison.

The slave Xiuzhi vomited white foam at first, and then black blood, which showed that Xiuzhi had been poisoned for a long time.

Xiuzhi was He Yingchun's personal slave. After he was poisoned and died, He Yingchun was neither alarmed nor panicked, and only showed a little pity. This shows that He Yingchun knew that Xiuzhi was going to die."

Ye Wange heard this and understood why Nangong Ao knew that He Yingchun was the murderer like Hui Hui. It turned out that in such an emergency, he did not lose his calm, but carefully observed everyone's every move in secret.

There were clues in everyone's expressions.

"An Changzai has just entered the palace and has not been favored by the emperor. Why is Concubine Ying jealous of An Changzai? Does she want to kill An Changzai?" Ye Wange asked in confusion.

Nangong Ao glanced at Ye Wange. He didn't believe that Ye Wange didn't know that He Yingchun's target was not An Changzai, so he said, "Didn't the queen see that the target of the poisoning was not An Changzai?"

When Ye Wange heard Nangong Ao say that the target of He Yingchun's poisoning was not An Changzai, he pretended to be surprised and asked, "The target of Concubine Yingchun's poisoning was not An Changzai, then who is it?"

Nangong Ao didn't answer but asked, "Who does Concubine Ying have a grudge against in this palace?"

After hearing this, Ye Wange recalled it carefully in her mind, and after thinking for a long time, she said in shock, "Could it be that I am the target of the imperial concubine?"

Last time, I had some trouble with Concubine Ying because of Concubine Ying beating a slave to death. Could it be that Concubine Ying wants to kill me because of this?" Ye Wange's voice became more and more frightened as she spoke. The more she spoke, the more frightened she became. Her eyes when looking at Nangong Ao also changed.

Feeling pitiful.

Nangong Ao saw Ye Wange shrinking and sitting on the chair, looking a little lost and frightened. He replied, "No one knows who the target of Imperial Concubine Ying is until the interrogation is clear."

Nangong Ao and Ye Wange were discussing the matter of Concubine Ying. Zhang Fugui came in and reported, "Your Majesty, Qin Li, the eunuch beside Concubine Ying, wants to see the Emperor."

When Nangong Ao heard that the eunuch next to He Yingchun asked for an audience, he said angrily, "My dear father-in-law, a slave asked to see me, and you came in to report back. Have you really forgotten the rules of the palace?"

Nangong Ao was furious, and Zhang Fugui replied with a fearless expression, "Your Majesty, that servant said that he has something important to report to the Emperor. I don't dare to decide on such a serious matter, so I went back to report to the Emperor and let the Emperor decide."

Nangong Ao frowned slightly after hearing this. Only a slave could have something important for him to decide, "What is it?"

Zhang Fugui glanced at Ye Wange with a troubled expression.

Ye Wangeli blinked, looked at Zhang Fugui and said, "Eunuch Zhang is so hesitant, isn't it convenient for me to say it in front of me? Do I need to avoid him?"

After hearing this, Nangong Ao said, "If there is anything that is not convenient for me to tell you in front of the Queen, I can just say it without any precautions."

Zhang Fugui heard this and replied, "Qin Li, the eunuch beside Concubine Ying, is here to clear Concubine Ying's grievances. He also brought important physical evidence."

Ye Wange laughed secretly when she heard this. This He Yingchun was really planning to murder her.

After hearing this, Nangong Ao looked shocked and said, "What important evidence? Let him go to Gao Dejiang to complain."

As soon as Zhang Fugui heard that Nangong Ao was about to refuse, he immediately replied, "That servant said that the matter is serious, and Master Gao does not have that much power to punish the real culprit."

"Oh!" Nangong Ao became even more curious after hearing this. Who has such power? Gao Dejiang can't even touch it.

"Let him come in." Nangong Ao said.

Zhang Fugui led Qin Li in. Qin Li held a bundle in his hand, knelt down in front of Nangong Ao and shouted, "Your Majesty, this servant is here to beg the Emperor to clear the grievances of Concubine Ying."

After hearing this, Nangong Ao said, "You keep saying that Concubine Ying was wronged. What evidence is there?"

Qin Li raised his head and held up the things in his hands and said, "This is the evidence.

It is true that Xiuzhi is a slave of Yongming Palace, but Xiuzhi has long since betrayed us and used the imperial concubine for someone else's use."

Zhang Fugui took the important evidence from Qin Li's hand and handed it to Nangong Ao. Nangong Ao took it over and saw that it was a banknote with the seal of the Ye family and several other valuables. Nangong Ao took it and handed it to Nangong Ao.

handed the things to Ye Wange.

Ye Wange took it and looked at it carefully, then burst into laughter.

Nangong Ao looked at Ye Wange who was laughing wildly in confusion.

Zhang Fugui and Qin Li also looked at Ye Wange in surprise, who kept laughing.

Ye Wange laughed for a while, stopped laughing, raised the banknote in his hand and said, "Are you saying that this banknote is evidence that you are innocent when you welcome the concubine?"

Hearing Ye Wange's question, Qin Li was scared, but knowing that Ye Wange bribed Xiuzhi made Qin Li confidently reply, "Yes."

"Tell me about it?" Ye Wange said.

Qin Li replied, "Although Xiuzhi is a slave of our Yongming Palace, he has found something in Xiuzhi that does not belong to our Yongming Palace. If Xiuzhi is the murderer of An Changzai, then Xiuzhi must be the victim of others.

That’s what I was told to do.”

After Qin Li finished speaking, Ye Wange asked, "Are you saying that Xiuzhi was assigned by others to kill An Changzai?"

"yes."

"You mean it was ordered by the person holding this banknote?" Ye Wange asked again.

"Yes." Qin Li replied decisively.

After hearing this, Ye Wange smiled and said to Nangong Ao, "Your Majesty, this bank note bears the seal of my Ye family, but I looked carefully and found that this bank note is fake and not from my Ye family."

After hearing this, Nangong Ao took the banknote and looked at it carefully.

Qin Li, who was kneeling there, began to panic when he heard Ye Wange say that the bank note with the Ye family's seal was fake.

This bank note is the only evidence that can prove that Xiu Zhi is related to the Queen. If this bank note is fake, it will not only fail to prove that Xiu Zhi is related to the Queen, but it will also not prove that Concubine Ying is unjust.

Zhang Fugui, who was standing on the side, heard this and knew that something was wrong. After the plot of Concubine Ying to kill the Queen failed, he wanted to blame the Queen again, but now Concubine Ying's plot not only failed again and again, but also obviously

Someone set me up.

Nangong Ao took the banknote and said, "Where did you get this?"

"I found it from Xiuzhi." Qin Li replied.

After hearing this, Nangong Ao said, "My dear father-in-law, please give this bank note to Master Gao and ask him to investigate the origin of this fake banknote, and then ask Master Gao to interrogate all the slaves and eunuchs in Yongming Palace."

"Yes." Zhang Fugui responded, and at the same time mourned for He Yingchun in his heart. He Yingchun's big event was over, and he couldn't afford to make waves, but he still had to pay for it with his own life.

Qin Li heard this and shouted, "Your Majesty, it is unjust for us to welcome the imperial concubine..."

Qin Li shouted, Zhang Fugui waved his hand and several people immediately came up and carried Qin Li down with all their hands.

After Qin Li was carried out, the room returned to tranquility, as if there had been no previous frightening frame-up.

Ye Wange looked at Nangong Ao and said, "Your Majesty, is this concubine a failure as a queen, or is it a failure as a human being?

Let these people frame me again and again."

After hearing this, Nangong Ao replied, "Queen, relax, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter. No one will threaten the queen, let alone allow others to frame the queen."

Ye Wange sighed repeatedly after hearing this, and shouted that she was tired.

"Queen, please go to the couch and rest for a while." Nangong Ao stretched out his hand to support Ye Wange.

Ye Wange leaned all over Nangong Ao. Nangong Ao almost half-supported and half-carried her to the side of the phoenix couch. Ye Wange got on the phoenix couch and fell asleep with her face facing the inside of the phoenix couch. She turned her back to Nangong Ao and sighed sadly.

With.

Nangong Ao listened to Ye Wange sighing all the time. He was already angry in his heart, but now even more anger surged to his forehead.

Nangong Ao ordered the servants of Funing Palace to take good care of Ye Wange, saying that he was going to find Gao Dejiang and asked Gao Dejiang to investigate the matter strictly without delaying for a moment.

After Nangong Ao left, Ye Wange took off the quilt and sat up, "Little ruler."

The little ruler who was standing in the outer room heard Ye Wange calling him, and immediately ran into the house, "Queen, are you okay?"

Ye Wange shook his head and asked eagerly, "What happened? Why did An Changzai drink that glass of poisonous wine?"

Xiao Zhizi replied, "When the slave Xiangyun went to get the wine, the slave Xiuzhi took the opportunity to bump into Xiangyun, knocking over the jug and spilling the wine. Later, Xiangyun went to change another jug.

Xiuzhi deliberately asked Xiangyun to replace the poisoned pot of rice wine, but who knew that the pot of poisoned wine was taken away by An Changzai's slave, so An Changzai drank the poisoned wine."

Ye Wange laughed after hearing this and said, "It's so unjust that An Changzai died. He died in such an inexplicable way."
