Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 6 It was Concubine Qi who ordered the slaves

The golden pollen on Murong Jiu's hand was dazzling in the sunlight.

A flash of annoyance flashed in the eyes of the fifth princess, secretly thinking that Murong Jiu was lucky enough to have gotten away with it by mistake. Murong Man felt it was a pity, but quickly concealed the emotion in his eyes.

The empress and the second prince both looked as usual, showing their deep scheming.

Murong Jiu took in their expressions and listened to Yun Bin's lingering thanks. She said: "Ms. Yun Bin, you don't have to be polite. It's what I should do to save you. Besides, I was the one who tripped over something first and then fell." To you, I frightened you. But..."

She changed her voice and looked at the emperor respectfully: "Father, I did witness with my own eyes that the maid of Empress Yun Bin pushed Empress Yun Bin's back in an attempt to frame the concubine who was pregnant with a dragon fetus. There must be someone behind such a vicious act."

She stopped talking and didn't say much.

But emperors throughout the ages were suspicious, and I believe the emperor already had doubts in his heart.

When the accident happened, she had only one virtuous father-in-law by her side, and there were no uneven roads in the imperial garden. What could have stumbling upon her?Naturally, one can only doubt Eunuch De.

Eunuch De felt his Majesty glance at him and his face turned pale.

Ginkgo fell to her knees on the ground, shouting that she was wronged.

Yun Bin's face was filled with disappointment. She couldn't believe that the maid she trusted most would betray her, but someone did push her at that time.

"Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me!"

Yun Bin covered her belly that had not yet revealed her pregnancy with one hand. Her delicate face was already filled with pear blossoms. She seemed to be unsteady on her feet and leaned against the emperor.

The emperor was very concerned about the fetus in her belly. He held Yun Bin in his arms and angrily ordered Gingko to be tortured and interrogated the person behind the scenes.

Bang bang bang!
The sound of the sap hit Ginkgo, and she screamed.

It didn't take long for him to be beaten until he fell unconscious, but he was soon awakened by cold water and other tortures.

Even a strong man couldn't survive it. Ginkgo's eyes flashed with a desire to survive and a look of struggle.

Murong Jiu glanced at the Queen and the Second Prince calmly. There was no trace of panic on their faces. Her eyes moved slightly as she thought of a certain possibility in her mind.

"Water torture!"

The emperor ordered with a cold face.

The so-called waterboarding is to cover the face with a towel, lie down on a bench with the feet high and the head lowered, and pour water on the person, which creates a feeling of suffocation, as if he is about to drown, which is more painful than being pushed upside down into the water.

Seeing the water pouring continuously on Gingko's towel-covered face, Murong Jiu's face turned slightly pale and his hands were trembling slightly.

She drowned in a deep well. Seeing this scene, it seemed like she was back before she died. Hatred surged in her heart, and she quickly lowered her head to calm her heart.

So she didn't see that Jun Yuyan looked at her with a hint of deep inquiry.

"Slave, all moves! All slaves, all moves!"

However, after a few times of drinking, Ginkgo couldn't hold it any longer and shouted loudly.

From the corner of his eye, Murong Jiu saw the queen clenching the silk handkerchief tightly in her sleeves, but she quickly let go.

The queen panicked.

Ginkgo was put down from the bench by the guards, and she knelt on the ground gasping for air with a look of shock on her face.

The emperor looked majestic: "Tell me, who instigated you to be so cruel to Concubine Yun?" "Yes..." Ginkgo raised her head and glanced around quickly. When she met the eyes of the second prince, her expression became darker. Her hair turned pale, and her lips trembled as she said, "It's Concubine Qi. It was Concubine Qi who ordered the servants!"

"What did you say! When did I give you orders? Your Majesty, she framed my concubine!"

Concubine Qi had an angry look on her face. Unexpectedly, the fire burned her body again, and she looked at the emperor aggrievedly.

Ginkgo suddenly shouted crazily:
"That's right, it's Concubine Qi! Concubine Qi is afraid of falling out of favor and wants to kill Concubine Yun. She threatens the lives of slaves' relatives. I have no choice but to do it! Your Majesty, slaves will do anything. Your family members are innocent. Yes, I am willing to die to apologize!"

After saying that, a look of determination appeared in her eyes and she gritted her teeth.

"She's going to kill herself!"

As Murong Jiu spoke, she quickly took action. She kept staring at Ginkgo and had a prejudgment. However, she didn't expect Jun Yuyan to move faster than her. He kicked a stone under his feet and with a sudden sound, Ginkgo's jaw was removed instantly. Come down!

She didn't have time to be surprised, she went up to pinch Ginkgo's mouth and took out a poison pill hidden in the back molar.

In the previous life, the dead men of the second prince all used this method to hide poison. After she heard that Ginkgo framed Concubine Qi, she guessed that the other party was going to take poison. Sure enough, she guessed it right.

Things happened so fast that by the time everyone reacted, Murong Jiu had already stopped Ginkgo from committing suicide by biting the poison.

She and Jun Yuyan cooperated so well, as if they had cooperated hundreds of times before, that Concubine Qi was stunned.

Ginkgo shouted "Ahhh" and struggled hard, but was pinned to the ground by the guards.

The queen's brows furrowed, her eyes slightly flustered, and the second prince's eyes also flashed an unexpected look, and his eyes fell on Murong Jiu.

At this time, Jun Yuyan stood up and said in a warm voice: "Father, Ah Jiu prevented Ginkgo from committing suicide by biting poison. I believe there is something hidden behind the scenes. I hope my father can investigate clearly and clear the mother and concubine's name."

The emperor stared at Ginkgo with sullen eyes. Now that the matter had come to this, how could he not see that someone wanted to blame Concubine Qi? As soon as Ginkgo died and there was no evidence, the dirty water was poured on Concubine Qi's head.

Dare to play tricks in front of him, this Ginkgo and the people behind it deserve death!
I didn't expect that the humble little daughter of the Yongning Hou family would behave like this.

He looked at Murong Jiu with a bit of satisfaction, nodded and said to Jun Yuyan:
"Yu Yan, you and Ah Jiu reacted quickly. You did a good job. I will let the Jinyi guards torture you severely to clear your mother's name."

If you hand it over to Jin Yiwei, his bones will be crushed. How long can a little girl like Ginkgo last?
However, Murong Jiu knew that the second prince had already put his hand into Jinyiwei at this time, and that a Qianhu named Han Jin would become his right-hand man in the future, collecting countless intelligence for him and threatening the court officials.

Therefore, it is impossible for Ginkgo to reveal the behind-the-scenes instructions, and in the end it will be a dead end.

But the difference is that if you want to kill Ginkgo, Han Jin will be exposed, and he will become a dead chess player, and he will also be silenced.

As a result, the emperor was furious and must thoroughly investigate the Jinyiwei, because the Jinyiwei has only one master, that is the emperor, and no one is allowed to interfere.

In this way, it would not be feasible for the second prince to place chess pieces on Jin Yiwei's side, and his right and left arm would be cut off in advance.

A small ginkgo ruined an important chess piece for the second prince.

Does this count as stealing the chicken or losing the rice?

Murong Jiu raised her eyes and looked at the second prince, who was also looking at her, with a cold light of complicated hatred in his eyes, but the moment she looked over, he gave her a gentle smile.

It's really flexible.

The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she thought to herself: Jun Haoze, this is just the beginning!
But she didn't know that Jun Yuyan's deep and searching eyes were also looking at her.
