Chapter 1082 Only One Person Survived

It has always been Si Ye's style not to play cards according to the routine.

In that state of nervous tension, it must be very difficult to find clues based on micro-expressions.

So, he deliberately said something irrelevant to let the rest of the people relax their vigilance.

Then, while seemingly interrogating Concubine Xi, he observed the facial expressions of the rest of the people.

At this moment, he indifferently asked the court lady who was pushed into the middle and couldn't even kneel straight, and asked, "Tell me, why did you keep looking at Concubine Wen while I was interrogating Concubine Xi?"

The maid propped her hands on the ground, knelt there trembling and dared not speak.

A look that was suddenly hit hard in the heart, and the whole person was stunned.

Such a person can't ask anything.

Seeing this, Fourth Master directly asked Su Peisheng: "See what kind of job she is."

Su Peisheng nodded, and asked Aunt Liu in the room.

Then he replied: "Your Majesty, this lady-in-waiting is doing odd jobs in Yongshou Palace, sweeping the floor and doing laundry. Basically, wherever there is a shortage of people, she will go on errands."

In a yard, there are always a few slaves who have something to rest.

And this palace lady is equivalent to a logistics substitute.

The fourth master nodded slightly, turned to look at Concubine Wen, and asked indifferently: "Concubine Wen, since the maid is too scared to speak, then tell me, why are you flirting with the maid of Yongshou Palace? Don't tell me, She turned out to be a slave working in your yard."

If it is said that Concubine Xi was unilaterally feared by the previous maid, at least they did not look at each other.

But Concubine Wen and this court lady, he saw with his own eyes the two of them flirting with each other while interrogating Concubine Xi.

After all, Concubine Wen has seen the world, and her ability to withstand stress is stronger than that of court ladies.

Even in the face of fourth master's direct questions, he quickly adjusted his mood.

She walked slowly to the middle, and replied: "No, this concubine does not know this maid, and she has never worked in the concubine's palace. It's just that this concubine sits on the sidelines and has nothing to do. It just so happened that she also saw Chenqie. Besides, Chenqie not only looked at her, but also looked at other slaves."

Fourth Master gave a faint "um", as if he had expected Wen Bin to say that.

"Then, why did you look relaxed when I named Concubine Xi?" He asked.

Concubine Wen lowered her eyes, "The concubine is just thinking that maybe Ergege is still waiting for me to go back. If it is really Concubine Xi, maybe the truth will come to light, and the concubine will be able to return to Zhongcui Palace earlier, so I feel relaxed."

As long as she resists stubbornly and refuses to admit it, the emperor will have nothing to do with her.

"Concubine Wen, do you know that you didn't flirt with the maid, but when Concubine Xi was being interrogated, you breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the maid several times, so what should I say? .”

Concubine Wen: "..."

Now she didn't know how to answer.

If she wanted to talk about other things, she could bluff them.

But when these two things are linked together, it seems too sharp.

As if she was sure that she was the one who murdered the queen.

Otherwise, how could it be so abnormal when Concubine Xi was being interrogated.

Even she herself was very upset.

I want to say that if she knew this earlier, she shouldn't take it lightly.

You should be careful throughout the whole process, and wait for the matter to come to an end.

"Okay, since you don't want to say anything, let's think about it before we talk about it." The fourth master said, his eyes fell on the shivering palace lady, "As for this palace lady, I will order someone to take her to the Punishment Department for questioning." , and of the two of you, only one can survive. Of course, whoever speaks first will survive."

His tone was indifferent, as if he didn't care.

It seemed that his words did not decide a life, but saved a life.

At least one person can survive, isn't it.

And, all of a sudden, the initiative was in his hands.

Not that he couldn't wait to know the answer.

It was Concubine Xi and the palace maid who couldn't wait to tell him the answer in order to survive.

As the emperor, he didn't have the time to wait that long, he had to make a quick decision.

He still has to approve the papers for the Palace of Mental Cultivation, and some of them have to be approved before the court.

What's more, at dawn, he has to go to the morning court.

As far as Concubine Xi and the maid were concerned, they could answer the questions well, and they were well organized and there was nothing wrong with them.

And Concubine Wen and this court lady.

One was too frightened to answer.

The other has been playing sloppy.

If you say no problem, no one will believe it.

Probably fourth master's words played a role.

The court lady who had lowered her head suddenly raised her head.

A look of surprise flashed in Wen Bin's eyes.

Obviously, the "you" in fourth master's words.

It refers to Concubine Wen and the palace maid.

At this moment, no matter how calm Wen Bin was, it was like being struck by lightning.

Just now, the emperor was still interrogating Concubine Xi.

Why did Concubine Xi get off her body all of a sudden and turn on her body, she couldn't even shake her off.

So, does the emperor believe that she did it?

If it is said that she did not do this, she can uphold the attitude of the innocent and not afraid of being framed by the court lady.

But it was she who did it.

She originally wanted to find an opportunity, or to get the maid as soon as possible tonight.

It's also good to kill and silence, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

Who knew that the emperor would make a surprise attack and detain them here, so he insisted on asking one, two, three.

This man is really terrible.

Just let you relax a second ago.

In the next second, you will fall into the hell of anxiety.

With such a pair of eyes that can see through everything, they can see through the matter between her and the maid.

With just a few words, she and the court lady's will was broken bit by bit, and then continued to be destroyed.

Let them have to make choices in order to survive.

In this case, if the court lady is ahead of her, wouldn't she really be dead?

Based on what she knew about the emperor, he always meant what he said.

Thinking of this, a look of horror flashed in her eyes, and she glanced at the maid.

The maid who had been quiet all this time suddenly opened her lips, as if she wanted to speak.

Therefore, Wen Bin immediately rushed to the front and said, "The emperor...the emperor..."

"Speak well." Fourth master said indifferently.

Wen Bin paused slightly, then looked up at the man above him.

His every word and deed exudes a strength that disdains the world.

As if she was not his concubine at all, she was nothing in his eyes.

And he is just the living king who controls the death of her and the palace girl.

Just an understatement of a sentence can send them to hell.

Concubine Wen took a deep breath and said with a shy face: "Your Majesty, my concubine is indeed jealous of the Queen, but she never thought of harming the Queen, but often complains why the Queen is favored by you. It seems that the slaves around her are good at making up their minds. You did such a nasty thing."

She immediately dumped the blame on the servant.

Then, there really was a loyal maid beside her who came out and said: "Your Majesty, the slave who bought the servant of Yongshou Palace and put rose flowers in the queen's quilt was done by the servant alone and has nothing to do with Concubine Wen. The servant is only dedicated to Wen." For the sake of my concubine, I never told my concubine Wen, so my master is innocent, if the emperor wants to blame, just blame the servant alone."
