Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 964 Yu Xiaoxiao

The so-called scholar is a kind of female official in the palace, with a rank of third rank.

Naturally, this so-called third-rank is only among the servants, and it is not the same as the third-rank of the concubine. At best, she is a palace servant with some status.

"This woman's surname is Zhu, her ancestral home is in Huainan, and she is from a common family. She is a member of the Palace of Sweeping Leaves in the Summer Resort, and she has the title of a woman in a book." The third prince introduced, but he explained the origin of this palace member very clearly. Pulled out a page of paper from his bosom, and presented it with both hands: "This is a copy of the palace book, and my son brought it here, please look at it."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the other princes were all surprised when they heard the words.

The palace book that the third prince mentioned is actually the roster of the palace people, which records the history of the palace people, even the parents and family members are recorded on the record, and it is recorded in the internal department.

The third prince even transcribed the origin of this court lady, it was obvious that he had been prepared long ago and was extremely well prepared.

It can be seen from this that this court lady should be extremely important to him, and may even be a key witness.

However, when he made his speech in front of the imperial court just now, he never said a word to the court lady, but when the fourth prince was criticized here, he called her out.

This timing is really accurate, but it is quite worthy of consideration.

Everyone had their own thoughts in their minds, but they saw that Emperor Zhongyuan looked at the copy with Xing Yourong's hand, nodded, did not speak, and only cast his gaze to the third prince.

The cold, emotionless eyes made the Third Prince feel a chill all over, his heart broke out in cold sweat after a while, and his hands got wet.

However, in this situation, he is already on the verge of riding a tiger, and even if he wants to shrink back, he will not be able to shrink back.

Thinking like this, he finally mustered up his courage, and said to the scholar girl surnamed Zhu: "School girl Zhu, tell me everything you saw and heard that day."

Qin Su looked at the Zhushu girl indifferently, her heart was like a mirror, and she could see every inch of it.

She just said, why didn't the Third Prince rush into battle without any conclusive evidence?Now it seems that their last hole card should be this scholar.

At this time, the Zhu Shunv had already met the Emperor Zhongyuan and the princes, and she was kneeling in front of the jade steps, but she was facing Qin Su's side.

For some reason, Qin Su always felt that this Zhu Shunv seemed to be kind.

"Your Majesty, Your Highnesses, please." That Zhu Shunv spoke slowly, but she spoke Mandarin with a southern accent, which was pleasant to hear: "I have been assigned to the Summer Resort three years ago. Afterwards, he was in charge of the chores of the water well at first, and later he was promoted to be a member of the Palace of Sweeping Leaves, but he was in charge of cleaning the mountain roads and palace roads on the north side of the Summer Resort, and he did not stop every day."

The third prince interjected at this moment: "The side facing north includes Beishan Pass and Huifeng Hall, right?"

Zhu Shunv immediately bowed: "Yes, Your Highness. That area is very big. We have about twenty palace people, and we have to clean it every day. When the cleaning is finished, it is usually around Sizheng."

The third prince nodded, not daring to look at Emperor Zhongyuan's face, and continued to ask: "On the day when the Huifeng Palace incident happened, did you also finish cleaning at this time?"

"Yes, Your Highness, I also finished sweeping the floor that day at exactly the right time." Zhu Shunv said, her voice was unhurried and extremely calm: "After I finished sweeping the floor that day, I was about to go back when suddenly I heard footsteps walking fast in this direction. Because I was covered in dust at that time, I was afraid of bumping into some noble person, so I found a grassy place to hide and peeked out secretly. Who Thinking about it, I was really...really shocked."

She seemed to suddenly become frightened, her body trembling slightly, and after a while she continued: "I saw a...a woman covered in blood, running down the mountain road at the other end of Huifeng Hall, turning her head while running. Look, she looked very... very flustered. I didn't dare to move any more, I just huddled in the grass, hoping that she would pass by quickly, so that I could leave that...that place of injustice."

Everyone listened with bated breath. His Highness the Crown Prince had a serious expression on his face. He held on to the armrests of the chair tightly with both hands. The other princes also looked solemn. Only Qin Su tilted his head slightly, as if he was trying to remember something.

This mandarin with a slight southern dialect accent became more and more familiar to her the more she listened.

Obviously heard it somewhere.

Qin Su stared at Zhu Shunv, carefully studying her appearance.

With a slender figure and slender limbs, she looks very slim.Although he couldn't see his facial features clearly, but judging from his profile, he was quite ordinary, not even delicate.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for Qin Su to leave an impression on such an inconspicuous palace man.

However, she felt that Zhu Shunv became more and more familiar the more she looked at her, and gradually overlapped with a vague and distant figure in her mind.

Who on earth is it?
Qin Su frowned, and tried her best to dig out the image in her memory. After a while, the voice of Zhu Shunv gradually came back to her ears.

"...I thought at the time, as long as I don't tell others about this, it will be over." Zhu Shunu seemed to be terrified by the situation at that time, her voice trembling slightly: "It's just because of that bloody man Although the woman walked fast all the way, I could see clearly that she was wearing very luxurious clothes, she was by no means an ordinary palace lady. I didn't dare to move, I just lay down in the grass. After I hid my figure At that moment, unexpectedly, another person came from the other side of the path, wearing a black shirt and a black cloak, but he was an extremely handsome man. I recognized him immediately, that man was..."

She trembled again as she spoke, and said in a whisper: "Then the gentleman is... Master Sanqi." At this point, she felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly corrected: "I...I was wrong, not Sanqi Master Qi, it is... Lord Governor, Lord Huan."

There was a dead silence in the palace, like a tomb.

Everyone's eyes turned to Qin Su involuntarily.

As soon as Zhu Shunv opened her mouth, she directly pointed out that Qin Su and Huan Zicheng had a private meeting on the day when the Huifeng Palace incident happened.

Even if this is just the words of Zhu Shunv's family, with this person who witnessed it directly, the reason for Emperor Zhongyuan to surrender Huan's family is more sufficient.

Qin Su seemed to be unaware of all the attention, except that his eyes were fixed on the Zhu Shunv, and the light in his eyes was dim and hard to distinguish.

"That's all?" Emperor Zhongyuan's cold voice broke the silence of the room, "Your so-called witness can only say this?"

He obviously wasn't asking about Zhu Shunv, but about the third prince.

　The fourth update is over, thank you for your monthly tickets and rewards.
