Chapter 1657 I'm Partial to My Daughter-in-Law's House

Ruoyin: "I haven't said that I have stayed in the Old Summer Palace all these years well, why is there always someone trying to frame me when I return to the palace, but you are the first to jump out and the villain will sue first."

Concubine Ying replied innocently: "The concubine doesn't know what the empress is talking about."

Ruoyin sneered, "As a queen, I have no reason to kill you, a little concubine, don't you think it's far-fetched?"

"I don't know about this concubine, I think the empress knows best in her heart." Concubine Ying replied lightly.

At this time, the court lady who was bribed by Concubine Ying said: "Empress, have you forgotten? Today when you asked your servant to falsely accuse Concubine Ying, you said that Xi Chang died in your hands back then, and you were worried that the fire would not be covered by paper." In the future, Concubine Ying will take revenge, so I will act first, and I want to get rid of Concubine Ying, so as not to have long nights and dreams, leaving disaster behind."

This turn of events, like a bomb, exploded in the middle of the hall.

Everyone looked at Ruoyin with that incredible look.

My God, there is such a dirty thing in the harem!

After the maid finished speaking, Concubine Ying choked up and said, "Your Majesty, although my sister has a resolute personality, my concubine always thought that she died strangely, but I didn't think much about it. I never thought that it was the empress who killed her. The empress is so cruel." My heart, you killed my sister, and now you want to kill me, and ask the emperor to make decisions for my concubine!"

Listening to the oboe sung by the court lady and Concubine Ying, Ruoyin found it ridiculous.

It turned out that Concubine Ying knew that Xi Chang was being tortured to death by her, so she wanted to take revenge.

When Concubine Ying entered the palace, she thought that the feud between herself and Concubine Xi had ended at the moment Concubine Xi died, and she would not accuse Concubine Ying of any grievances.

After all, Concubine Ying has no enmity with her, so retribution is not an option.

But she was shy about Concubine Ying, so she ordered her eyeliner to stare at Concubine Ying.

The eyeliner discovered that Concubine Ying wanted to bribe the maid in her palace, but the maid was a double agent.

She has not been in the palace these years, some slaves would like to find another master to rely on.

Heh, she has only returned to the palace so long, and she wants to put her to death. This Forbidden City is really not peaceful at all!

She thought that there were all the witnesses, but in the end, the court lady became the witness of Concubine Ying, and the physical evidence changed with the witness, so it was useless.

Ruoyin opened her mouth, but she couldn't say that the court lady and Concubine Ying had colluded with each other in advance.

She just wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, clear her name, and punish Concubine Ying severely.

Therefore, Ruoyin turned to the fourth master and said, "Your Majesty, this concubine just returned to the Forbidden City when something like this happened. I would like to ask you to give me some time to investigate these matters and find out the sinister person behind it." , Chenqie should go back to live in the Old Summer Palace, otherwise my depression will relapse again."

She didn't even bother to say that she was innocent, so she begged him to believe it.

In this world, you are still the most reliable!

Heh, she wasn't sure if Concubine Ying was good before, so she didn't make a move.

Now that I know, as long as the evidence is conclusive, she will definitely not be merciful!

Concubine Ying wanted her dead, wanted her to be ruined.

Then she will ruin Concubine Ying's reputation and send Concubine Ying to see the King of Hades! ! !

After hearing Ruoyin's words, the fourth master above was at a loss in his usually calm eyes.

It was like the flustered look of a daughter-in-law who had finally coaxed her back to the palace and was about to run away again.

But soon, those mysterious and deep ink pupils returned to their former coldness.

The fourth master looked down at the lower head, and said in a voice like a bell, "Queen, this matter cannot be decided by just a few words from you women."

This sentence, a pair of unselfish, fair and just look.

In fact, it is telling everyone not to be fooled by a few words.

Then, he said to Concubine Ying: "Concubine Ying, what do you mean the queen killed your sister and then came to harm you?"

When this question was asked, Concubine Ying, who was kneeling at the bottom, trembled and did not dare to speak, for fear that if she answered a wrong sentence, she would show her feet.

The fourth master continued: "Your elder sister Xi Chang is here. She framed the heir of the harem many times in the past and took a few lives on her hands. These alone are enough for her to die several times."

"If it weren't for the fact that she is the third elder brother's mother-in-law and that you Niuhulu clan were loyal and good in the era, I would only demote her as a permanent presence and confine her to Chengqian Palace. What does it have to do with the empress if you can't fall from the concubine to Chang Zai and commit suicide?"

If he said the first sentence, he still seemed to be stern and selfless, but in the latter sentence, he was partial to his wife's house.

Back then, when he knew that Concubine Xi had framed the heir of the harem many times, he wanted to kill Concubine Xi directly.

But during that time, the Nian clan was completely eradicated, and Concubine Yuhuang had just died. If Concubine Xi was bestowed with death, some people would think that he repeatedly attacked his relatives.

This will make the foreign relatives of the previous dynasty panic, and the court will be in turmoil.

Just when the queen was pregnant with her elder brother, she was framed by Concubine Xi, so he gave Concubine Xi to the queen.

It was meant to let the queen execute Concubine Xi secretly.

He is also responsible for this matter.

After hearing this, Ruoyin suddenly felt that this man was singing a double reed with her.

She thought that he would be like a bystander, who had nothing to do with her.

And he has a tacit understanding with her, as if he often defends her in public.

While making Ruoyin feel familiar, there are more fragments of past memories in his mind.

Those memories are also similar to the scene of him domineeringly protecting her in front of everyone.

Concubine Ying was asked by Fourth Master, she knelt there and lowered her head, thinking about how to answer.

A few years ago, when my sister died, although the family suspected the death was strange, but they didn't want to offend the emperor, so they didn't ask for an autopsy.

But after she entered the palace, she found out that the queen had been to Chengqian Palace before her sister died.

But even if she knew this, she would not take the initiative to say that she knew it.

Otherwise, she would have the motive to murder the queen.

Concubine Ying could only push the matter to the maid, "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know either, but just now I heard from the maid that the empress killed her sister many years ago, and she was worried that I would retaliate against her, so she wanted to harm the concubine."

Regarding this, the fourth master said sharply: "As a concubine in the harem, you should respect the queen, but now you have no evidence, just relying on the words of the maid, just here to hear that the wind is rain, and frame the queen?"

"..." Concubine Ying was speechless.

Hearing what the emperor means, is it her fault?

"Okay, I will investigate this matter. Today's Mid-Autumn Festival feast is over." Such a thing happened at the banquet, how can we have a happy gathering.

Fourth Master left the Hall of Supreme Harmony after saying these words.

From the beginning to the end, he seemed indifferent, but there was a kind of kingly air in his whole body.

After the fourth master left, the concubines and ministers also left one after another.

Ruoyin also returned to Yongshou Palace in a phoenix chariot.

Her Yongshou Palace is very close to Fourth Master's Hall of Mental Cultivation.

When she returned to Yongshou Palace, she saw Su Peisheng standing at the entrance of Yongshou Palace with a smile on her face, "Empress Empress, Your Majesty invites you to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
