Chapter 71
Everyone wants to know the truth of the matter.

Beside Concubine Hua, Yue'er quickly pulled Concubine Hua back and signaled her not to act rashly.

Concubine Hua gritted her teeth, sat back on the chair unwillingly, and looked at Lvxiang with resentment.

Suddenly, Concubine Ning, who had been pale and on the verge of coma, smiled weakly and said, "Hehe, the Empress Dowager thinks that the concubine can handle such a big matter by herself? Don't you think that the concubine is more like Is it a pawn being used by someone?"

The queen mother rubbed the center of her brows with a headache, waved her hand to Lu Xiang, and said, "What is the truth of the matter, tell me quickly!"

The cicadas chirping in midsummer were annoying, but the hall was extremely quiet, only the voice of Lvxiang talking.

She said slowly: "Three days ago, Concubine Ning was not feeling well and had an accidental miscarriage. She was going to tell Her Majesty and the Empress Dowager about this, but Concubine Hua got the news from nowhere and came to the Moon Palace and Concubine Ning." The empress discussed the matter of entrapping the concubine Chen, and this witchcraft was also thought up by the empress Hua."

"Concubine Ning made such a big mistake from the beginning to the end because she was deceived by Concubine Hua's rhetoric, but in her original intention, Concubine Ning didn't intend to kill Concubine Chen. Love Your Majesty!"

Do you want to get away with all the crimes with just a fluffy word "love"?

Shang Kelan's smile gradually turned cold.

Concubine Hua was almost blown away by Lvxiang's words, even Yue'er couldn't stop her!

Yue'er frowned, then stepped forward quickly when Lvxiang's words just fell, and gave her a muffled slap with skill!

Everyone didn't expect that the servant girl next to Concubine Hua would suddenly make a move, and even Lu Xiang was stunned by Yue'er's unexpected slap at this moment!

I saw a few bright red finger prints appearing on her face quickly, and she was a little dazed from the beating on her head. There was a trace of blood oozing from the corner of Luxiang's mouth, but she didn't realize what was going on.

But Yue'er looked at her sadly, and reprimanded: "Bold maidservant, how dare you speak out to slander Concubine Hua!"

As she spoke, two tears flowed from her face, she turned around and knelt down facing the Queen Mother, and said: "I want to report to the Empress Dowager, it rained heavily three days ago, and the Concubine Hua heard that the Concubine Ning's health had been in poor health, so she asked the slaves to come out of the warehouse. Concubine Ning chose the ginseng that Governor Li gave to Concubine Hua to make up her body, and after learning that Concubine Ning had a miscarriage, Concubine Hua persuaded Concubine Ning to make this matter known to the world."

"I didn't expect that Concubine Ning promised Concubine Hua on the surface to tell everyone the truth of the matter, but behind her back she came up with such a sinister trick! How can she not make Concubine Hua feel heartbroken and sad by doing so? Who in the palace I don’t know that Concubine Hua and Concubine Ning have always been as close as sisters? How could Concubine Hua harm Concubine Ning so much?”

Yue'er's voice is aggrieved, but her attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, her voice is sonorous and powerful, giving people a sense of convincing.

In contrast, Lu Xiang, who was the first to break the news, was completely submerged in her words.

Shang Kelan saw Yue'er's performance in her eyes, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart: She is really a sharp-tongued girl, with excellent scheming and strategy, no wonder she became Concubine Hua's confidant in just a few days!

Concubine Hua is really... an incredible maid!

Thinking about it, the smile on the corner of Shang Kelan's mouth deepened a bit, no one could see her true thoughts clearly.

At the same time, after listening to Yue'er's remarks in a daze, Concubine Hua felt relieved, especially the slap that Yue'er slapped Lvxiang just now, which made her feel more at ease!

Immediately, Concubine Hua looked at Yue'er with even more satisfaction.

The Queen Mother frowned, looked at Concubine Hua and said, "Concubine Hua, is what your servant girl said true?"

Concubine Hua immediately pressed her eyes with a scented handkerchief, and said in a distressed voice: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, that's exactly the case!"

Lvxiang gritted her teeth tightly, raised her eyes and stared at Yue'er unwillingly, and said, "You are from Concubine Hua's side, so naturally you will help Concubine Hua to defend herself!"

Afterwards, she kowtowed heavily to the Queen Mother again and said, "I want to report to the Queen Mother, if what the servant girl says is false, the servant girl is willing to be punished by the heavens, the sky will strike five thunders, and she will not die well. After death, her soul will be trapped in hell forever." middle!"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd suddenly became noisy.

"This Lvxiang really dares to say, what if it comes true?"

"Yes, God is very clever!"

"Is it true that she and Concubine Ning are not the masterminds, but Concubine Hua is?"

Now that the matter is over, it doesn't matter who is the mastermind, anyway, Shang Kelan has been removed from the case, and no matter how you look at it, she is the victim.

This matter is beneficial to her.

The corners of Shang Kelan's lips curled slightly, and he looked at these people in the hall with a faint smile.

After listening to Lvxiang's poisonous oath, the Queen Mother gave her another chance: "Well, you say that this is Concubine Hua's mastermind, so do you have any personal or physical evidence?"

Almost as soon as the queen mother finished speaking, Lu Xiang hurriedly replied: "Yes! This servant has a witness, and she, like this servant, knew from the beginning to the end that the mastermind was Concubine Hua, and that person was Bai Zhi, the maid next to Rou Jieyu. !"

Rou Jieyu also participated in this matter?

Things are really getting more and more confusing!
Jin Yantang, on the other hand, sat on the main seat in his free time, remained silent from the beginning to the end, and did not say a word. Master Sima always followed him, as if treating everyone here as air, just quietly hanging down. Keep your eyes open, and don't look at anyone.

After Lvxiang finished talking about the testimony, the queen mother waved to Nanny Chen and asked Nanny Chen to take someone to call Bai Zhi.

Everyone waited in the hall again, it seemed that as soon as Bai Zhi came and all the witnesses and evidences were present at the critical moment, it would be clear whether the mastermind was Concubine Ning or Concubine Hua.

During the period, Lvxiang glanced at Concubine Hua secretly, but saw that Concubine Hua's expression was not flustered at all, as if... she had been prepared for a long time!
Immediately, her eyes widened: Could it be that Concubine Hua was already prepared?
Concubine Ning leaned against Lvxiang weakly, holding Lvxiang's hand tightly, her mind became more and more heavy, and she was angry. In addition, she hadn't eaten a grain of rice in order to make a trick these days, she was already too weak to say anything at this moment. Here comes the word.

Not long after, Nanny Chen walked in with a pale and thin woman.

The woman was wearing a white tuxedo, her hair was draped behind her back, and she was wearing an ice jade bracelet with a very sad look on her face.

Seeing her, the Empress Dowager couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Mother Chen, is this Bai Zhi?"

Mother Chen was about to answer, but the woman knelt down and saluted, "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the concubine is Rou Jieyu. Two days ago, Bai Zhi, the palace maid who had been taking care of the concubine, was found dead in the pool." ..."

Rou Jieyu looked to be in her twenties, she was very young, but she was already seriously ill, and her only maid in the palace died again, she felt grief and indignation, and even she spoke with unbearable sadness and sorrow!

The Empress Dowager took a look at Nanny Chen, and Nanny Chen helped Rou Jieyu up and said: "Jieyu, please get up, you are not in good health, the Empress Dowager excused your kneeling, please sit down."
