There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 66
Xia Houjue twitched the corners of his mouth, not knowing how to answer.

It's true that Gao made a set of underwear for him, but he hasn't received it yet.

Now this woman says she has received it, that is to say, she received it earlier than him?
Why do you have the feeling that your little wife has been snatched away?

This woman, why is she still robbing his little wife? !
His face darkened again.

It's just that even if he feels uncomfortable in his heart, he can't care about it.

It's just needles and threads between women. If the prince of a country even cares about this, it would be too stingy.

After thinking about it, he nodded with a dark face.

"Not bad! Received!"

Gao Liangyuan was also shocked, but she would definitely not speak.

He looked at Concubine Liu with a cold face: "What else do you have to say?"

Concubine Liu was startled suddenly, and was frightened by this look. Why is His Highness the Crown Prince so frightening all of a sudden?

After a moment of panic, she forcibly stabilized her mind, covered the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and was about to cry.

"Your Highness!"

"It's true that there are concubines with these materials, but so what? Who doesn't have any of these good ladies in the backyard?"

"If you really want to hurt someone, how can they show their flaws?"

"Your Highness, don't be fooled by them, let alone..." Tears rolled down her face.

"How could I harm myself! Your Highness!"

Tang Wanning sneered in her heart, and said indifferently on her face.

"Since that's the case, why don't you invite some experienced embroiderers to come over and learn how to do stitches!"

"Everyone's stitches are like handwriting, no matter how imitated they are, flaws can be found!"

"And..." She looked at Side Concubine Liu.

"The material used for this puppet is provided by us internally, not purchased from outside. We will definitely find this person!"

"In addition, the little palace maid who is a rough envoy should also be interrogated carefully. It is best to find out who she has been in contact with recently!"

Xia Houjue took a deep look at her.

Unexpectedly, this woman's IQ is usually impressive, but when it's her turn to get down to business, she has a brain, clear thinking, and straight to the point.

It seems... not so stupid.

"Since the Crown Princess has made arrangements, I will leave this matter to the Crown Princess. If there is anything else to do, let's go first!"

As she said that she was about to go out, Concubine Liu was completely panicked.

Although His Highness was not on her side, he was not on anyone else's side either.

With him, no one can mess around, let alone turn black and white.

If this case is handed over to the Crown Princess, I'm afraid...

"His Royal Highness! Don't you care about the concubine? The concubine begs you to be the master!"

Xia Houjue narrowed his eyes and looked at her coolly.

"Didn't you ask the princess to make decisions for you at the beginning?"

"Why do you suddenly have to be alone?"

He restrained his expression: "The Crown Princess is the lonely official concubine, the master of the backyard, she will deal with it fairly, and will not wrong anyone or slander anyone!"

After speaking, he strode away without looking back.

Ah!He didn't bother to care about a bunch of messy things.

Concubine Liu suddenly felt a little cold. This is the man she has been with for more than two years and who has spoiled her for so long?
I thought I could have some pity anyway, but she was wrong after all!

Kneeling in front of the princess, she suddenly felt that she had lost.

Things got serious, and the crown prince also came, but in the end, no one paid any attention to her, how ridiculous?
The atmosphere in the room is tense.

It was Biluo who brought a few embroidered ladies from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to relieve the embarrassment.

Tang Wanning ordered all the women in the backyard to hand over their embroidery work.

Although everyone was reluctant, they all wanted to ask questions, and all the conveniences were handed over. Only Siqing, who was beside Concubine Liu, had a different expression.

Tang Wanning emphasized indifferently.

"Everyone's acupuncture method is different. If you use someone else's impersonation... Let this concubine check it out, it will be dead!"

Siqing bit her lip, and finally handed over her silk handkerchief.

Tang Wanning smiled in satisfaction, and ordered Biyue to take the embroidered ladies aside to check, and then ordered Biluo to bring the little maid over for interrogation face to face.

Looking at the little maid kneeling below, Tang Wanning sneered.

"My concubine puts the ugly words first!"

"If you confess quickly, I think you are just an accomplice, and I will punish you lightly, but if you are full of nonsense! Then don't blame this concubine for being rude!"

The little maid kowtowed in fright.

"Yes!"

"Prince and concubine, my slaves dare not talk nonsense even if they die!"

Tang Wanning pursed her lips: "Okay! Then tell me... who asked you to bury this puppet?"

The little maid knelt on the ground, rolled her eyes twice, and finally trembled.

"Yes……"

"It's Gao Liangyuan..."

"She told the maidservant that when she served Liu Mistress before...Liu Mistress never took her seriously, but now that Liu Mistress has fallen out of favor, she feels resentment in her heart! I want Liu Mistress to come sooner..."

She was a little afraid to answer.

Tang Wanning signaled her to continue, and she said tremblingly.

"She wants Empress Liu to die sooner!"

Gao Liangyuan looked at the little maid in disbelief, her face changed drastically: "You!"

"Hong'er, I ask myself how well I treat you normally!"

The little maid kowtowed repeatedly, crying in fright.

"Master! Master, I'm sorry for you, but...the matter of witchcraft is against the palace rules! I can't watch you make mistakes again and again!"

"Princess Concubine, everything this servant said is true, if there is a false statement, this servant will die immediately!"

As she said she got up and was about to hit the pillar and die, but fortunately Biluo had quick eyesight and quick hands, so someone stopped her.

"What are you doing? This is the place of the princess and concubine, you want to die if you say you want to die??" Bi Luo reprimanded loudly.

Tang Wanning sneered.

"Whether you're telling a lie or not, my concubine will judge naturally, and you don't need to hit the post to die!"

She glanced at Biyue not far away, she was arguing with some embroidered ladies.

After a quarter of an hour, Biyue and several embroiderers came forward to report.

"Going back to Empress Dowager, I've checked it out, and the one most similar to the embroiderer on that puppet is Miss Siqing next to Empress Liu!"

As she spoke, she presented the two items for comparison.

Tang Waning observed carefully, and it was exactly the same.

"Okay, the evidence is on both sides of you, and the rest can probably be ruled out. I will give you half a quarter of an hour to talk about it yourself!"

"Gao Liangyuan, you come first!"

Gao Liangyuan really panicked, knelt down in front of Tang Wanning and said earnestly.

"The concubine used to want to befriend Liu Niangniang, but Niangniang Liu came from a family, so it's normal to look down on concubines, concubines dare not complain!"

"Prince Concubine Empress Mingjian, no matter how bold the concubine is, she dare not touch such things as witchcraft!"

"What's more..." Gao Liangyuan lowered her head.

"With so many people in the backyard, it's not just a concubine who has conflicts with Empress Liu..."

Tang Wanning smiled faintly, then turned to look at Concubine Liu: "What about you? What can you say?"

"Princess Concubine, the court lady's words are well-documented, and there are all witnesses and material evidence, who can frame her?"

"It's clear that she caused me to curse me, I beg the Crown Princess to make the decision!"

Tang Wanning looked at the two people who said that the public was right, and the mother said that the mother was right, and immediately smiled.

"Forget it! The personal evidence and physical evidence are inconsistent, but the physical evidence is dead, and this concubine can only pursue further investigations on the personal evidence!"

"Come here, send this little court lady to the Punishment Department, be careful not to let her die, and interrogate her carefully until she tells the truth!!"

"By the way, Miss Siqing is also sent there, and interrogated carefully without any mistakes!"

"Yes!" Bi Luo responded, leading the others away.

The faces of the people below also changed, especially Concubine Liu, she never expected that the Crown Princess would do this.
