Distressed Concubine

Chapter 241 The King's Means 2
Seeing their sluggishness, Bei Gongcheng's cold smile deepened. "Catch it out slowly!"

With just one sentence, the speed immediately increased, and everyone had no time to think. To be precise, there was no time for complete thinking.

Bei Gongcheng watched the interesting scene, and the corners of his lips were as tight as a knife's edge, and his horror became colder.

The master took the poisonous ones, and the servants took the non-poisonous ones.

It seems like everyone wants to live?
One of the younger women was stunned for a while, really not knowing what to choose, and finally grabbed one with her eyes closed, making him squint slightly.

Of course, some people couldn't bear the mental pressure, and some fell to their knees.The weeping Bangbang kowtowed: "My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life!"

Bei Gongcheng glanced casually, and finally said lightly: "I will forgive whoever told you to do it."

This... a few people faced each other, and just hesitated for a moment, which made someone's patience exhausted. "Drag it out, cut it off!"

"My lord! Let's talk! Let's talk!" Several people struggled and cried immediately.

This didn't change Bei Gongcheng's soft heart, he didn't need to face the coffin to know the weeping servant.He said coldly: "It's late!"

Impatiently waving his hand, several people were taken away immediately.

Such unfeeling made the hearts of those present tremble suddenly.

But the people who are sincere about Bei Gongcheng are all in good condition. This plate of fruit almost fell into the princess's stomach. The crime of mutilating the princess and the servant of the emperor is not an exaggeration to punish the nine clans. It is only a life, which is considered very cheap.

What's more, the prince has opened his mouth, and if he confesses, he will spare his life. These people can still hesitate, and they are more than worthy of death.

Ning Yuran's heart pounded again and again, what did he want to do?Could it be that so many people were killed?Glancing at Wan Concubine and Li Jieyu who were already pale, she couldn't help but say, "My lord!"

As soon as the title was called out, Bei Gongcheng ordered lazily like a hell Shura: "Eat them all!"

The interrupted words were blunt, indicating that there was no room for maneuver in this matter.

Seeing that Concubine Ning's intercession was completely useless, and the people who had followed Ning Yuran's allegiance for the past few years and lost their minds finally understood that there was always only one master in the Prince Regent's Mansion!
Eating poisonous fruit, who would stuff it in their mouth knowing it is poisonous?Human nature is greedy for life and afraid of death.

This time, there were even more people who regretted the past, and someone kowtowed immediately: "My lord, I confess, I confess!"

The scene of so many people confessing made Wanpin and the others feel terrified. This time, they could win the bet on the choice of fruit this time, but as long as the servants confess, who did this matter is almost in black and white, and it is clear!

And the prince's simple "eat it" even drove them to a dead end, eating poisonous fruit?Isn't this letting them throw stones at their own feet and kill themselves?

At this moment, they stopped being brave, and all knelt down, weeping.

"It's all done by Sister An. Although the concubines and others know about it, they never poisoned it!"

As soon as the concubines cried, the servants who were about to tell the truth hesitated a little, and blurted out their agreement. "It was done by An Meiren. The villain has lost his mind. Please forgive me, my lord."

Anmei was condemned by so many people, and she froze in place for a moment.Bei Gongcheng glanced coldly, and realized that it was the woman who was holding ebony plums with her eyes closed.

Seeing this, Xi Ye and the others sneered, these people really have a way to heaven, if they don't go, they have to go to hell!At the moment, I wanted to persuade the prince earlier, do you want to kill so many people?Although these people are really hateful, sometimes they have to do it under the orders of their masters.

In this way, they all kept silent.

If you want to die yourself, who can stop it?

Sure enough, when Bei Gongcheng saw this, his black eyes were half-closed, and Ling Lie burst out. The more gloomy look made Ning Yuran terrified, and he couldn't care about anything anymore. Bring rain.

"My lord! My lord, this concubine is indeed dereliction of duty. I heard Sister An said something so casually yesterday, but she didn't mean it. Who knew she really did this."

The implication is that they just knew about it unintentionally, and they should not be held accountable.

Ning Yuran was panicking now, she never expected that Bei Gongcheng would be so swift and decisive every time he made a move, never giving anyone a chance to struggle, killing him with one blow, and approaching a corner.

Bei Gongcheng's icy eyes turned to her again, he slowly got up, walked to Ning Yuran's side step by step like a messenger from hell, stretched out a finger to lift her chin, forced her to be unable to dodge his eyes, and bowed halfway The body approached inch by inch, casting a shadow, bringing out an extremely dangerous aura.

He sneered word by word: "Unintentional? Ning Yuran, why don't you tell this king—this king of Xiyuan has already ordered a strict ban. If you didn't participate, who would dare to be so bold?"

"No! The concubine didn't. How could the concubine use such a stupid way to directly poison the princess? The concubine dare not." Ning Yuran was a little excited, and his voice was a few decibels higher, which sounded harsh.

"Don't dare?" Bei Gongcheng chuckled, as if he had heard some joke. "Ning's three dynasties veteran, he has done a great job in saving him. If Grand Master Ning said a word in Beichang, Huaihai City would shake three times. Why don't you dare?"

"The Ning family is loyal to protect the lord, so it is even more impossible to do such a thing that is outraged by heaven and man." Ning Yuran trembled her blue lips, and the unwillingness in her heart was like thorns.

"The common anger of man and god? Do you know this is the common anger of man and god?" Bei Gongcheng sneered. "Ning Yuran, you are not stupid, but you seem to have used your intelligence in the wrong place. You think that there are too many people who have dealt with it, and the law does not punish the public, so the king will not care about it? Or are you taking the risky way? , use the stupidest way to wash yourself off the impossibility?"

Ning Yuran's original intention was vividly stripped away in every word of Zhuji's words.

She really didn't take action, she just let everyone do the poisoning, even if the incident happened, she would at most be dereliction of duty, and with her father's support, Sheng would not do anything to her, but listening to Sheng's words today, it seems that there is something different.

She didn't understand why Sheng's attitude was even colder than in the past six years after seeing her in just a few months.In the past, at most, he didn't like to talk to her, but he was polite, why is he pressing her every inch now?
For Nalan Ruixue?

Thinking of this name, her heart felt as if oil had been rolled over, and her jealousy and hatred had never been so deep.

Biting her pink lips tightly, she didn't dare to say a word, Bei Gongcheng smiled coldly, his eyes moved down slowly along her delicate face that disgusted him, and finally landed on her stomach.

This action shocked everyone present, and Ning Yuran hugged his stomach tightly and leaned back for a moment. "My lord, what are you going to do? This is your own child..."

In an instant, Ning Yuran thought of Concubine Rong's tragic death, Bei Gongcheng had nothing to dare!This brought despair to her terrified eyes for the first time.

Xi Nan stared at her with a frown, and said in a low voice, "Sheng, don't be fooled!"

Bei Gongcheng sneered, and said word by word: "Ning Yuran, you seem to be ignoring my king's warning a few months ago?"

Ning Yuran was taken aback, remembering that he said at that time that he hated calculating the most, and if he dared to calculate him next time, he would not be sure how to treat her child.

This made her feel cold from head to toe, holding her stomach in disbelief and crying: "No, no, my lord!"

Staring disdainfully at her complexion that turned from bright to deadly pale, Bei Gongcheng slowly approached her ear, and said slowly: "One last time! Remember, it is the emperor, not the king, who takes care of Ning's family! You It's best not to be too reckless, otherwise, this king will make the Ning family - completely disappear!"

She's smart, he doesn't need to say much.

With a sneer, he felt the woman's body tremble suddenly under his fingertips. He let go of his hand in disgust, and stood up straight again.

In fact, what kindness is there to say to the Ning family?In terms of military affairs, he and Chu have always had biased opinions. Chu has inherited his father's way of winning over officials, checking and balancing the court, and playing with everyone's minds with the technique of the mean and scheming.

But he was never Bei Gongchu!Ning's to him.To put it mildly, the Ning family has accepted the duty of being loyal to the emperor and protecting the lord, but to put it badly, it is just another ambitious Xiao family!

As a monarch, what kind of love is there in this indifferent world?Kindness?After so many years of rolling and crawling in the deep palace, he has already cultivated a sharp eye. He knows what kind of person's intentions are too well.

Seeing him get up and look towards the crowd, Ning Yuran's heart skipped a beat, she knew that terrifying coldness all too well, this would be a massacre, even though he spared her, he didn't intend to spare the people around her, Immediately shouted: "My lord! You should at least ask the reason first!"

reason?What reason does he need?Who is responsible for the investigation of the seven poisons?And then give appropriate punishment according to the priority of toxicity one by one?
That's embarrassing, he doesn't have that patience.

Bei Gongcheng sneered, turned his head to Ning Yuran and said quietly: "I don't need to know the reason, I just need to know the quantity!"

Gather everyone together, he just needs to know, whoever is involved in this matter, whoever knows is good, knowing and not reporting is considered the same crime, dare to move his mind on his woman, dare to target his child, dare to When his eyelids are lowered, then don't blame him for being rude.

The cold words made everyone gasp, quantity?Up for the slaughter?

As if to confirm everyone's conjecture, Bei Gongcheng half-closed his eyes coldly, and said to Xi Ye: "All the servants will be dragged down - stick to death! The masters will write letters to their families, asking them to lead people, this king Next time, let's see how all civil and military officials explain to the king the crime of killing the emperor's servant!"

With a sentence of death, all the servants who had chosen non-poisonous fruits were sent to hell in an instant.

The sentence of killing the emperor's servant instantly froze the concubine who had chosen poisonous fruit for a gamble.

To mutilate the emperor's servant - this crime is simply too great!Which family of the Nine Clans dare to bear such a crime?It seems that they don't kill, but in fact they want the lives of the whole clan!
Immediately, everyone was frightened and howled.

Li Jieyu and others knelt down and crawled away in disbelief. "My lord, my lord, this concubine knows it's wrong, this concubine is only fascinated by ghosts for a while, the medicine is not fatal!"

Bei Gongcheng looked back sharply in an instant, and gave a wicked smile. "Not fatal? Attack the night! Give Li Shangshu's daughter all the sour plums to eat!"

"Yes!"

After finishing speaking, several people stepped forward and grabbed Li Jieyu's hair, and stuffed a lot of plums into his mouth. The scene was heart-stirring, and only the sound of Li Jieyu's struggling crying could be heard.

Bei Gongcheng's cold blood shocked everyone present. They all opened their mouths wide and watched Li Jieyu's complexion turn from red to white, then to blue, and finally blood spilled from the corner of his lips, but he looked fearless.

He is not a good person, he just needs to be nice to the people he wants to protect, and he never needs to give words to people he doesn't care about, or people who offend his bottom line.

This is to go along with others, perish against those who oppose others, and find the dead—don't blame him for being cruel!

Ning Yu was stunned and Qiu Tong looked up at the man bathed in the sun in disbelief, as if a god descended. She used to think that the god was the most beautiful man in the world, with thousands of powers in one body, but she ignored the most important thing. One point, the nature of the gods is cold-blooded and ruthless.

But if he had no love in his heart, why would he take such good care of Nalan Ruixue?

Not reconciled to flooding into her eyes, she shouted hoarsely: "Why is the prince so ruthless?"

Anyway, she is pregnant with his child, isn't she?Can't we just accumulate merit for the sake of our children?
