Chapter 723 I will avenge you!(1/2)
Why do you think that back then, Zhang Guiren was the same, only beautiful but without brains, but he was able to receive unlimited favor and was the most popular in the harem for a while.
But today, she can only continue to act evil in this prison?
The difference is not in Xiao Zhang as a person. Wang Zhenying saw this very clearly from the beginning. Zhang Guiren has not changed in any way from the beginning to the end.
She is still the same, and her temperament has not changed at all over the years.
The only thing that changed was Sima Yao.
It was Sima Yao who liked her tone. Even if Zhang Guiren was in control of heaven and earth, nothing would go wrong with him as his backer.
And now, someone as stupid as Guiren Zhang actually sent his patron to hell with his own hands. I have to say, it is really eye-opening.
Ever since, after the major events in the previous dynasty were basically settled, Wang Zhenying thought of her old rival. Before anyone thought of executing her, she hurriedly came to see him alive.
At the same time, you can also clarify your own doubts.
"Don't rush to scold me. You should be happy that I can come here to see you today."
"At this stage, who else but me can remember you?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to have someone to talk to with you?"
Today, Zhang Guiren is no longer a threat to Wang Zhenying, so she can speak so calmly.
You can even taste a hint of generosity and tolerance in her words.
In fact, there was no unforgettable hatred between Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang. Now that the person who caused their antagonism is dead, there is no need for them to continue fighting.
Even to Wang Zhenying, Xiao Zhang is still her benefactor.
Without Xiao Zhang's heroic behavior, how could she have become the queen mother like a rocket?
Therefore, after much thought, Wang Zhenying still felt that she should come to visit Xiao Zhang, not only to know the truth, but also to express her gratitude.
"I don't want to see you. It's useless if you come."
"Now the Queen is enjoying great success and everything is going well."
"how?"
"Your Majesty, you haven't become the Queen Mother yet?"
For some reason, when he saw Wang Zhenying and how she pretended to be a good person and generous, Xiao Zhang returned to normal.
No matter her words or expression, they are no different from the beloved concubine back then.
Wang Zhenying wasn't angry either. This was her last moment anyway, so it didn't matter if she continued to show off.
Anyway, the final outcome has been decided.
"As for the Queen Mother, she will always be elected no matter what time, so I don't need to worry about this."
"I have a general understanding of the noble man's affairs. Although the noble man probably cannot escape the blame, I still want to find out the inside story of the whole matter."
"What else is there to figure out?"
"Don't you already know everything?"
"Since you can't save me, then let's not talk about it!"
As he said this, Zhang Guiren turned around, showing his uncooperative attitude.
Hum hum!
They are all going to die anyway, so you can be as angry as you want, no one is afraid!
It's really hard to persuade a ghost who wants to die. If she used to coax Wang Zhenying, she wouldn't say another word to her, but it's different now.
In the battle between superior and inferior, the outcome has been decided. As a true winner, Wang Zhenying has the stomach to tolerate Xiao Zhang's willfulness.
"My lord, do you know?"
"Sometimes, I also envy you." The queen said lightly.
Xiao Zhang's head moved, and he said disdainfully: "The Queen has a golden body and a jade body. I am only of the quality of a willow tree. There is nothing to envy."
"The Queen Mother just needs to be the Queen Mother, don't sympathize with me."
"I don't sympathize with you, I just want to make it clear about His Majesty's sudden collapse."
"Perhaps, the truth is no longer important at this point, but I think you also hope that someone will listen to your side of the story!"
The fact that Wang Zhenying came to Tianlao was a sure sign that everyone had a desire to talk. Regardless of whether what Zhang Guiren said was true or false, she must also know some inside information that they did not know.
And this inside information will definitely be of great help to her in her future journey as Queen Mother.
If it wasn't for her own sake, why would Wang Zhenying get into trouble?
"But, what use are those things to you?" Xiao Zhang turned her head and finally began to face Wang Zhenying's question. However, the doubts in her heart were also obvious.
She just wanted to be the queen mother, so why should she care about the truth about Sima Yao's death and who was the murderer?
It might not be good for her to figure these things out.
"Don't worry about it. If you have any grievances, just tell me. Although I may not be able to save you now, there is still one more person in this world who knows about your grievances."
"In the future, when the time comes, maybe I can help you get revenge!"
It's not yet clear whether there was any grievance, but the bullshit has been blown.
Sure enough, Zhang Guiren was really convinced by her because of her good boasting.
"Whether you believe it or not, I really don't want to harm Your Majesty. I have never had such an idea!"
"Then why did you steal the powder?"
Xiao Zhang's expression turned serious: "You even know this?"
Zhenying nodded: "Of course, you have been screaming for injustice in the prison these days, and you scream so loudly, I don't think you know!"
Frankly speaking, it was because of hearing Zhang Guiren's nonsense in the prison that Wang Zhenying decided to come here to see her.
Because those words were so surprising and outrageous that until now, Wang Zhenying still couldn't believe them all.
"Tell me about it."
"You said that the medicinal powder came from Pei Jiao'er's palace. She probably didn't tell you what the medicinal powder was. Why did you want to steal it?"
There is always such a connection between Zhang Guiren's actions and thoughts, which seems to be hidden. This is the conclusion Wang Zhenying came to after thinking for a few days.
Although Xiao Zhang is brainless and jealous, she is not a fool. How could she think of stealing the medicinal powder from Pei Jiaoer's hand?
Could it be that Pei Jiaoer gave her some hint?
Wang Zhenying is very interested in this issue, because the outcome of Zhang Guiren has almost been decided, but Pei Jiaoer is still hanging there.
"Because I thought it was the love potion she used to charm the Sacred Heart. Aren't they Taoist priests from outside the palace very good at this?"
"I heard that Pei Jiaoer used this a lot during the days when she served His Majesty, so I wanted to get some from her for my own use."
"Are you sure that she must have taken medicine?" Xiao Zhang would not do such a thing without any evidence.
Wang Zhenying waited nervously and expectantly, but Zhang Guiren looked like she didn't understand.
Has she never thought about this problem before?
What a beautiful idiot.
After a moment, Xiao Zhang shook his head regretfully: "I'm really not sure about this."
"When His Majesty favors her, he won't call me. How could I know?"
"I also made assumptions based on the current situation. Later I figured it out. I was a little too hasty at the time."
"Actually, I have no concrete evidence that His Majesty favored Pei Jiaoer just because she took medicine."
"However, I am not the only one who thinks this way. It is no secret that those Taoist priests and witches in the Jin Dynasty are good at making all kinds of love potions. Pei Jiaoer went from being an unknown female Taoist priest to His Majesty within a few days.
There must be something fishy about getting a special favor."
"Think about it, I originally thought she might have taken medicine. That day I found Qingyin Palace just to verify this matter."
"I happened to see her preparing powdered medicine. Of course I thought that this must be the kind she used for His Majesty."
"Listen to what you said, Pei Jiao'er didn't give you any hints?" Wang Zhenying thought about Zhang Guiren's words and suddenly spoke.
"No."
"She didn't want to talk to me at that time."
"I saw her put the medicinal powder into a small porcelain bottle and put it aside. At this moment, her back was turned to me. I saw that there was still a little powder left in the box that contained the medicinal powder, so I
Stole it."
"I think she doesn't know that I stole the powder."
This is strange.
It is indeed impossible for Pei Jiaoer to predict in advance that Zhang Guiren would come to the house to cause trouble and steal the powder. Zhang Guiren's own statement can also verify this.
If this is the case, why can Pei Jiaoer seize the opportunity so accurately?
If Mrs. Pei specifically wanted to frame Zhang Guiren, then she would have to prepare in advance and wait for the opportunity to take out these medicinal powders.
