Chapter 27 Chapter 27(1/2)

Concubine Zhuang was restless and asked people to go out to find out the news again and again.

Two days ago, people from the Qinzheng Palace suddenly came over and sent her first maid to Changxin Palace without any explanation. This scene almost scared her to the point where her legs went weak. The imperial concubine tried her best to find the person who framed the first maid of Changxin Palace.

When the mastermind was behind the scenes, he suddenly escorted the palace maid away in her Yonghe Palace. What this move meant was even clear to everyone.

She never thought that such a disaster would come from the sky, which really made her hate the person who intended to frame her. Besides her hatred, she was also uneasy, fearing that the palace maid would grab her randomly and pull her into the water.

No wonder she was panicked, mainly because the eldest maid of Changxin Palace was dead.

Will the noble concubine give up? Absolutely not.

Over the years in the palace, she has somewhat seen clearly the temperament of the imperial concubine. If offending the imperial concubine may result in small punishments or severe warnings, if you dare to touch the people around her, then she can really kill you.

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. If Changxin Palace had not declined her requests for meeting several times in the past two days, she would have really wanted to kneel before the imperial concubine and swear to heaven that she was innocent.

And Concubine Zhuang was not the only one who was restless in the palace.

Changxin Palace has closed its doors for the past two days and declined all visits.

Wu Jiang stepped into the main hall with his shoulders hunched, knelt down and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, it's a good thing that this servant has lived up to his command. The palace maid finally hired him."

Wen Yin's eyes turned to him, and he stood up humbly and walked over silently, put his hand on his lips and whispered quickly in a low voice. After saying that, he stepped back and stared at the half-inch in front of his toes, not daring to look directly at him.

That noble concubine’s beautiful face.

The moment this result hit her ears, the image of that woman appeared in Wen Yin's mind, and she glanced at every detail that came into contact with her, trying to find out possible grievances.

After a moment, she gathered her emotions and signaled Nanny Yu to give the prepared reward to Wu Jiang.

Without waiting for Wu Jiang to refuse, he said softly: "Thanks to Eunuch Wu for helping me with this matter. I have made a note of your kindness to your father-in-law. Just accept this small gift. I can't let your hard work go in vain."

At this moment, Wujiang could only feel the clear and moist jade sound that reached his ears, like fairy music.

"Thank you for your reward. It is an honor for me to be valued by your Majesty."

He held the sachet in both hands and knelt down to thank him. For some reason, his attention was half focused on the elegant fragrance of the sachet.

"Get up quickly." Wen Yin's attitude was gentle, "I wonder when my father-in-law will be off duty again? There are still some follow-up matters that I may need to ask my father-in-law for help."

"After five days, I will be off duty for half a day. Your Majesty has given orders, and I will not hesitate to die."

Wen Yin nodded slightly.

Now that the matter has come to an end, it should be time for Wu Jiang to retire.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Wu Jiang suddenly spoke. He controlled the speed of his speech and tried to slow it down to make his voice less shrill. "The palace maid made a request before she let go. I hope

Your Majesty can save her whole family. Firstly, I was afraid that she would not be able to hold on, and because I felt sorry for her, I boldly agreed to do it for my Majesty."

Wen Yin said: "It doesn't matter. Since she has confessed, I can protect her family and her family at her request."

"It's just that this slave has made his own decisions, please punish me."

"My father-in-law is both powerful and kind, which is rare. Get up quickly. There is no need to apologize. I know you also have my best interests at heart."

When Eunuch Wu stood up, his eyes shifted a few inches. At this sight, the small piece of soft satin sleeping shoes made of jade silk that poked out of the hem of the brocade palace dress was deeply imprinted in his mind.

After Wu Jiang resigned, Grandma Yu frowned and said, "Why do you think he is so weird?"

She always felt that Wujiang was a bit strange, but she didn't know what was strange about it.

"Maybe the words were a bit confidential," Wen Yin said, "but as long as things can be done well."

She specifically ordered her to find someone from the Twelve Prisons for interrogation, because if someone dared to place the chess piece in that position, they must have grasped one of their weaknesses and knew that they would not spit out easily. In this case, then, then

Ordinary interrogation methods are not enough, and you have to invite people with extraordinary means to interrogate.

The best candidates are the people from Jinyiwei. The second is the eunuchs who often deal with Jinyiwei.

However, the former was the Holy Emperor's private weapon, so she couldn't invite him, so she could only choose the latter.

"I thought Wu Jiang was tender and afraid that his methods would be inferior, but I didn't expect that he was actually tried and found out."

Thinking of the person behind the scenes, Wen Yin looked outside the hall silently and said for a moment: "Mommy, I have no enmity or enmity with her."

Aunt Yu didn't know how to respond. Deep in the palace, the presence of the empress was too conspicuous. Although she had no intention of competing for her favor, she was still a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many concubines.

"Mommy, do you think she deserves to die?"

"If the queen wants to, she will die."

Wen Yin said nothing and quietly drank a cup of tea.

"It depends on God's will. No, it should depend on her own destiny."

In Qinzheng Palace, Zhu Jing had been waiting for the reaction from Changxin Palace, but when the sun went down, her place was still as quiet as ever.

"Are you sure that Wu Jiang has been tried and found out?"

"Yes, Wu Jiang said that the palace maid had confessed personally, and it was Concubine Kang who secretly sent her a message asking her to act like that."

Zhu Jing looked outside the palace, "I didn't ask him how the noble concubine was feeling at that time. Did she have an angry face?"

Feng Bao replied: "How could he, a lowly servant, dare to look directly at the beautiful face of the empress? But according to what he said, the empress spoke in a gentle and kind tone at that time, and she did not seem to be angry or resentful."

"Did she mention me?"

Feng Bao whispered.

Zhu Jing leaned back towards the throne and sighed: "The imperial concubine hides her emotions very tightly, and it is difficult for me to guess her thoughts."

Feng Bao silently walked around behind the throne and squeezed His Majesty's shoulders with moderate force.

"Your Majesty has good intentions, and your concubine will understand."

Zhu Jing closed his eyes. After a moment, he said the order.

"Destroy the title of Concubine Kang, demote her to a beauty, and move out of the main hall of Zhongcui Palace within a time limit..." Before he finished the edict, he suddenly raised his hand, "That's it, there is no need to pass it on."

After Feng Bao came out of Qinzheng Hall, Wu Jiang from outside greeted him enthusiastically.

"Godfather, has the Holy Spirit made a final decision regarding the imperial concubine?"

Feng Bao glanced at him sideways and said, "Oh, you are quite interested."

Wu Jiang sensed the other party's displeasure and said stiffly: "My son also wants to sell it to the imperial concubine for a good deal..."

Feng Bao gestured to one side, and the two went to the corner to talk.

"If we hadn't had such a father-son relationship, I wouldn't have bothered to talk to you. The most difficult thing to burn in this palace is the hot stove. If you don't have a lot of skills, don't put it on the pole to burn it. Be careful that it will burn even if it dries up.

I burned myself to ashes."

Feng Baodian left when he reached the point, leaving Wu Jiang alone at the foot of the eaves staring at the red wall in a daze.

The harem passed peacefully for a few days.

Five days later, when the Holy Master of the Qinzheng Hall learned that the concubine had twisted the concubine Kang's eldest maid into the Changxin Palace on the grounds that she had offended her, the ink pen in his hand paused for a moment above the memorial. Then he continued

Continue reviewing.

When Feng Bao learned that Wu Jiang had gone to Changxin Palace again, he shook his head secretly.

Originally, seeing Wu Jiang's cleverness, I wanted to teach him as a successor, but now it seems that I have to let go of this idea.

"Empress, why do you want to interrogate her?"

In Changxin Palace, Wu Jiang lowered his eyes and asked, his gaze fixed an inch and a half away from his toes.

"She is Kang Bin's confidant and knows most of Kang Bin's affairs. I hope my father-in-law can pry open her mouth and confess in detail all the underworld things Kang Bin has done."

Wu Jiang turned his body slightly and listened carefully. After the other party finished speaking, he leaned forward again.

"Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely handle this for you."

At this time, outside Changxin Palace, Concubine Kang knelt down with the eldest princess in her arms and confessed, crying and begging.

Across a palace door, Nian Xia's hands were tightly clenched.

It turns out that Nian Chun died for her! Just because Nian Chun fought for her and glared at Concubine Kang's confidant, the eldest maid, that one look was enough to kill Nian Chun!

Why didn't she stare at it on her own then? Why was she so cowardly? Why did she have to be frightened by the remaining power that the great palace maid had exerted?

She hated herself and the people outside the door.

So she delayed her time not to go to Tong Bing, and did not allow anyone to open the palace door.

For three consecutive days, Wu Jiang would take the time to come over for interrogation when he was off duty. When he was on duty, he would send capable officers to continue the interrogation.

With the help of various means, the confidant maid couldn't stand it any longer. In addition, Wu Jiang promised to protect his family from future worries. The confidant maid could not die even if she wanted to, so she could only confess with tears and guilt.

"Mommy, find someone to deliver the letters on the table to the Wen family. Since you promised her, you won't break your promise."

And her eldest brother should also return the favor to her.

Aunt Yu took the letter and went out, and Wen Yin reached for the confession stamped on the case.

"It's filthy up there, don't dirty your hands."

Wu Jiang was the first to pick up the confession, unfold it in detail, and carefully and diligently presented it to the other party.

Wen Yin had a strange feeling at this moment, but she was so focused on the confession that she had no time to pay attention to this fleeting strangeness.
