After hearing the answer from the little eunuch, Lian Yongwang was basically sure that the little eunuch had something to do with it.

As long as he knew about it, he would not be afraid to speak up when he entered the inner court prison.

"Since you are dishonest, let's continue to use torture." Lian Yongwang said.

Under the service of various instruments of torture in the inner court prison, the little eunuch finally recruited.

But at the beginning, he only admitted that he poisoned the little eunuch in the imperial dining room, and the reason for poisoning him was also a personal reason, or he could not get away with it later, and he really couldn't stand the torture, so he confessed honestly, He was instructed by He Jieyu to do this.

He Jieyu was already jealous of Concubine Shu, coupled with the matter of the fifth prince and the fact that the Eldest Princess was grounded and punished, this made He Jieyu hate Concubine Shu even more.

Knowing that the emperor and Concubine Shu are out of the palace this time, He Jieyu decided to attack the sixth prince. She felt that as long as the sixth prince died, Concubine Shu would definitely be in great pain, and without the sixth prince, there would be fewer Concubine Shu in the harem. rely.

It's a pity that things didn't work out, the emperor was furious and wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, He Jieyu was afraid that the little eunuch in the imperial dining room would expose her, so he ordered him to kill the little eunuch to avoid future troubles.

Lian Yongwang stood outside the door, waiting for Luo Chengjing to come out of the room, and then he stepped forward and reported to Luo Chengjing the detailed reports he had found.

"He Jieyu did it?" Luo Chengjing raised his eyebrows.

Lian Yongwang nodded. He felt that what the little eunuch said was completely logical. He Jieyu had always been at odds with Concubine Shu, so it was normal to do such a thing.

Luo Chengjing stepped up, "Go to the court first, and I'll go see He Jieyu after the next court."

When Luo Chengjing appeared in Qingren Palace, He Jieyu had no surprise in her heart, only fear.

What is the emperor doing here now? Could it be related to the young eunuch who was taken away beside her?

Last night, people from all the palaces were taken to the inner court prison for interrogation. At first, when the little eunuch beside her was taken away, she didn't feel scared, but when the people from other palaces were released early this morning, and the eunuch beside her When the little eunuch in her family was nowhere to be seen, she began to get scared.

He Jieyu forced a smile, came up to greet her, saluted and said: "This concubine has seen the emperor, why is the emperor free to come to this concubine today?"

Luo Chengjing didn't talk nonsense with He Jieyu, but asked directly: "Is the flood in Shouan Palace yesterday related to you?"

He Jieyu's heart skipped a beat, she quickly shook her head and denied it: "Your Majesty knows, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with my concubine."

"Really?" Luo Chengjing sat on the chair, stared at He Jieyu with dark eyes, and said: "But the eunuch who is serving you said that you ordered him to do all this, so he is slandering you?"

He Jieyu nodded again and again, "The emperor is holy, I don't know why he slanders me, but this really has nothing to do with me."

She wanted the sixth prince to die, and she also wanted Lu Wanning and the fourth princess to die. If she had the chance, she would do it, but she really didn't do it this time.

She couldn't understand why the eunuch beside her would say that she instigated this matter, and that eunuch was someone she relied on very much on weekdays.

Could it be that he has been bought?Betrayed her, so you deliberately slandered yourself?
Who was the one who bribed him to slander him?

Is it possible that Concubine Shu directed and acted this scene in order to get rid of her?
It's no wonder that He Jieyu thought this way, after all, the Shou'an Palace was on fire, but the sixth prince who should have had an accident was not injured at all.

He Jieyu felt it was a pity when she heard the result last night, but she didn't expect that the evidence would point to her in just one night.

"Your majesty, you trust my concubine, even if I have the heart, I don't have the ability!" He Jieyu cried.

Luo Chengjing didn't speak, He Jieyu's words were exactly what he thought in his heart, He Jieyu did have motives and reasons for doing this, but can He Jieyu order Dongmi'er?

Mi'er is a second-class court lady next to the Queen Mother, if Mi'er is really He Jieyu's person, why did He Jieyu never use Mi'er in the past.

"I also want to believe you, but the testimony is there, how can you let me believe you?" Luo Chengjing said lightly.

He Jieyu cried: "Your Majesty, must the testimony be true?"

Luo Chengjing remained silent.

In Ruichang Palace, Lu Wanning handed the sixth prince into the arms of the new wet nurse, and asked Zhou Man, "You said that the emperor went to Qingren Palace as soon as he came to court?"

"Yes, master, I suspect that the fire yesterday may have something to do with He Jieyu." Zhou Man said.

Lu Wanning didn't speak. After frowning for a while, she raised her head and said, "Do you think this incident is particularly similar to the time when the Fifth Prince contracted smallpox?"

All the key people died immediately after the accident, but as long as they checked carefully, they could still find a clue pointing to the person in question.

The clue pointed to her last time, but this clue pointed to He Jieyu this time.

But the person behind it last time was Princess Fengqing, and now that Princess Fengqing has died in Dongchi Country, how could she be manipulating this matter from behind?
Or is it really Princess Fengqing who is behind the incident with the fifth prince last time?

Lu Wanning shook her head: No!Not exactly.

It's not wrong that the person behind the fifth prince's incident last time was Princess Fengqing. Apart from Princess Fengqing, no one else in the palace could touch Dongchi Guo's secret work in Dayong.

But, only Princess Fengqing?Will there be another person inside to fuel the flames?

If there is such a person, who would this person be?Lu Wanning was the first to think of Concubine Ming.

She had doubted Concubine Ming about the matter of the Fifth Prince, but now it is still Concubine Ming who is most motivated.

After getting rid of the sixth prince, the third prince lost a strong competitor.

But without evidence, she couldn't just go to the emperor and say that she suspected that it was Concubine Ming who wanted to attack the sixth prince.

"Master, you mean He Jieyu didn't do what happened this time?" Zhou Man asked.

"There is also this possibility." Lu Wanning said, she was just speculating reasonably, but there are no absolutes in the world, and it is also possible that she was thinking too much, and He Jieyu did this.

But Zhou Man felt that Lu Wanning's suspicion was justified. Thinking that the emperor had already gone to Qingren Palace, he hurriedly said: "Master, the emperor has already determined that He Jieyu did this, so go deal with her." right?"

Although even if He Jieyu was really wronged, those people in Ruichang Palace would only be efficient, and would not feel wronged and unfair for He Jieyu.

But he didn't want the person who killed the sixth prince behind his back to get away with his body.

The sixth prince was lucky this time, so he escaped the deadly fire.If the person behind it is not found out, who knows if she will hide behind her back and look for another opportunity to attack the sixth prince again.In this world, there are only those who are thieves for a thousand days, so is there a reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days?
