Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid

???? The public hall of Dali Temple was strangely quiet at this time.

Because there are a lot of such intermissions in the past two days, some small officials have offered tea to all of you.

After about two cups of tea, the eunuch who was sent back to the palace by Fushun came back, and he was accompanied by a palace man.

He attached Fushun to his side and whispered a few words. Fushun's complexion sometimes frowned and sometimes frowned. He actually looked at Mrs. Xiao with a thread of heart, and became nervous.

After speaking, the eunuch stepped aside.

Dali Temple Qing said: "Father-in-law, I don't know--"

Fushun stood up, first made a hand-off to the three adults in the upper first place, followed by an embarrassing look, and said: "Haha, our family has misunderstood the holy intentions. Your Majesty said it, since it is for the noble concubine. Innocent, I must thoroughly investigate it."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Mrs. Xiao, just to meet the shocked expression on Mrs. Xiao's face.He smiled brightly, and then said to the first place: "This is the imperial concubine empress's personal palace person. Because of inconvenience, the imperial concubine empress ordered the palace person next to her to replace her temporarily. The imperial concubine empress has already reported all the events of the year. For her, anyone who needs a witness or confrontation can be used later."

Dali Siqing raised his hands on his side and said, "The imperial concubine is wise."

Seeing your majesty behave like this and the imperial concubine acted like this, his heart has been put down, and he turned his head and exchanged a tacitly relaxed look with the people beside him.

In contrast, Mrs. Xiao finally showed her first flustered expression after coming to Dali Temple.

Fushun gave Madam Xiao a bad smile, "That's the case, then Madam Xiao should avoid it."

Dali Siqing nodded and said yes, ordered Mrs. Xiao to go down, and moved a screen at Fushun's suggestion to hide the palace man behind.

The next step is to continue the questioning, and the first one is naturally the source of the whirlpool Tian.

Tian has been accused of Dali Temple for a few days, although he has not been accused of prison cells, but lives in an ordinary room.But I don't know what's going on outside, yet another person is locked up alone, suffering from psychological torture.Coming up to the court, he was obviously more haggard than yesterday's description.

Dali Siqing began to conduct routine questioning, and Tian Shi followed the previous words one by one. There was a rush to record the matter and then to make a record. These will be filed or presented to His Majesty for review.

When Dali Temple Qing asked with embarrassment on his face, Tian Clan couldn't calm down, a trace of panic appeared on his pale face.

Although this emotion was quickly concealed, she was down, and she didn't know that her subtle emotions had been captured by the top three adults.

The three people immediately felt at ease, and for the first time since the Trial of the Third Division, they were completely relaxed.

Tian Shi is naturally not a fool, of course she knows what this means.To put it bluntly, she knew very well whether Concubine Yuan had any discord.She knew exactly what it was like outside.

The brilliance of such specious rumors lies in its speciousness and confusion.If no one is held accountable, then it is not shit but shit.But if someone pursues it, it can't stand scrutiny.

Tian's mind was confused, and in a panic, she chose a rhetoric that was very beneficial to her. This matter was done by the following people, who also handled them. She just listened to the reports and gave orders. The details are not detailed. Too clear.

She said that it was not without consideration. Five years were not short after all, and the people in the mansion had almost changed back and forth.She deliberately said that this matter was done by a person near her called Mama Qu, and Mama Qu was her confidant. She knew the ins and outs of the whole matter and naturally knew how to deal with it now.

Dali Temple nodded and ordered someone to bring Mama Qu up.

Mother Qu was brought up.

Her treatment was not better than that of the Tian clan, and she was locked up with the wives of other people.But after all, she has been Tian's confidant for decades, and she knows the ins and outs very well, so she naturally thought of it together.She didn't do anything else in the past few days, but unified her caliber with the lady-in-law maid who handled the matter back then.

What caliber of unification?Since the three major servants who were sold out in those days have done discord.

Not many of these people remained after five years, that is, Rong's mother and Xiu'e beside his wife were still there.Some others also know it, but they just catch the wind and hear about it, but they are not there.

After coming up, she first looked at Wang Tian, ​​and she knew what to do after seeing Tian's eyes.

Sure enough, Mother Qu was killed in one bite. The three major maids crawled into the bed of the Fourth Young Master.According to the rules of the mansion, he should be killed. The wife was kind and ordered to sell Beijing.

Seeing Mama Qu said as she thought, Tian suddenly sighed in relief, and cried as she was very aggrieved with her sleeves.

Tian's mother did not live up to her confidant name, and wept together with Tian's family, saying that his wife has always been a kindhearted person, otherwise she had been killed, but there would be no more noble concubine.He also verbally condemned the imperial concubine and empress for being ungrateful, and forgot her old grace once she had a steady pace.

The whole hall was filled with the cry of two women. The Dali Temple Qing, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department and Zuo Du Yushi who sat in the first place had the urge to hide their faces, but Fushun showed scorn and sarcasm.

At this moment, a person walked out behind a screen on the side of the hall, full of anger and disdain.

It is the spring grass around Xiaohua.

Chuncao first saluted several people in the hall, and then angrily accused Tian's false statement and slander Tian's mother, and said sharply: "This lady and this mother, you have already thought about it. Make sure things are like yours. Said?"

Tian had seen Chuncao and knew that she was the imperial concubine's personal palace.

She didn't expect that the imperial concubine would send a court man next to her to hear the trial. She was angry, anxious, and aggrieved, with a hint of joy.Your concubine is finally in a hurry, it's useless to be anxious, three adults are watching here, even the concubine can't intimidate me.What did you do early, listen to my advice early, there are so many things!

"Of course this lady is sure that what she said is true!"

Mother Tian followed and howled, "Even if you are the imperial concubine's cronies, you can't threaten us in court. We are telling the truth. The madam spared the imperial concubine's life back then. On the contrary, grace will avenge revenge..."

Fushun cleared his throat and said, "Three adults, don't you think this old lady is deliberately confuse? We are asking about the old things about the empress. It doesn't matter who forgave whom, and who avenged her."

The three adults nodded, and they also thought the two of them were so funny, especially the old lady who looked like a servant girl. Apart from echoing Tian's rhetoric, she kept talking about things with the imperial concubine.Not to mention whether the imperial concubine's move is considered ungrateful, the two of them know why.

It's nothing more than trying to confuse the audience, by the way, take the words to suppress the imperial concubine, or say to others, only to say that if something goes wrong this time, the imperial concubine must have deliberate revenge.

Although the woman in this back house lacks a good view of the overall situation, she has a lot of eyes. There are traps deliberately buried in every sentence, sometimes even more difficult than men.

"This lady Qu, don't talk about irrelevant things, otherwise the officer will ask you to go down."

Mother Qu's slaying was actually all strong. From the moment Fushun spoke, she was frightened to the point of sieve. At this time, seeing Dali Temple Qing also talking, she hurriedly fell on the ground and stopped making a sound.

Chuncao snorted and said with disdain: "I don't know who is ungrateful. From the first time you entered the palace to coerce, the empress has ignored you and gave you time and time again. This time you are looking for death by yourself, don't blame her!"

After speaking, Chuncao reported a few names, saying that these people had known Niangniang back then, and the adults could call for questioning one by one.

Dali Siqing took the list of subordinates from Jinyanghou's Mansion to pass one by one, and brought up the people who are still there.

Those who came up were all maidservants, in fact, they also included Rong's mother, who was old and old, and Xiu'e, who was no longer dressed as a maid.

The performance of these people was normal, and the others who were not present at the time all said what they heard. As for the mothers of Yu Rong and Xiu'e, they came in a unified way.

The confession at this time was completely unfavorable to the imperial concubine Yuan, and the three adults at the top frowned again.

Chuncao remained calm and did not say anything. Just as Tian clan relaxed, she reported another person's name, making Tian clan finally couldn't help showing a look of surprise.

Mother Qu screamed in her heart, but the wife was not locked up with her, she was only locked up elsewhere.

At this moment, the two of them can only hope that the wife of Wang is really old and confused, just like when she sent someone to talk about it.But for some reason, Tian's heart felt uncontrollable panic, as if something bad was about to happen.

"My lord, this person and Niang Niang had been close together. According to Niang Niang, she was suddenly promoted back then, and many people were excluded from her. Only this elderly woman took good care of her. When Niang Niang was sold This grandmother Wang had even visited her at night to help her inquire about the sale, and gave the mother a few pieces of silver and two pieces of cakes for her to use for self-defense."

Dali Temple nodded, and ordered someone to bring the Wang's wife.

Soon, the old lady Wang was brought up.

In order to avoid it, Chuncao went behind the screen again.

"This old woman, do you remember a little girl named Xiaohua five years ago?"

Granny Wang glanced blankly at the senior officials in the hall, thought about it, and said, "Back to your lord, the old lady has some impressions."

Tian screamed from the side, "Wang Madam, you can talk after you think about it."

Wang's wife was frightened by Tian's scream, and knelt down with a plop, shivering with fright.

"Tian, ​​please pay attention to your words, or you will be invited down by this official." Dali Siqing finished speaking, and then turned to Granny Wang, "Don't be afraid of this Granny. There are a few adults sitting here, as long as you say To be honest, no one dares to embarrass you."

Wang's wife looked at Tian with lingering fear, and whispered to Dali Temple, "Is it true, my lord?"

"Naturally it is true."

Granny Wang nodded, making a look of memory, and said slowly.

After listening to what Mrs. Wang said, the truth of the matter finally became clear.

In the old lady Wang's narration, the girl named Xiaohua was a very honest and low-key little girl. Because of her young age, many people pushed her out, and several big girls also used her as a little girl.But she is neither humble nor overbearing, she is hardworking, never provokes disputes, and never rushes in front of her master.

Reluctantly, at that time, the four young masters and his wife were in disagreement. Tian's family was about to choose a room for his son. Several big maids fought together, as if it were a cockfight.The girl named Xiaohua had no choice but to pretend to hide in the small kitchen every day, but the troubles were going to make big troubles. The Qiao family tried to suspend the beams. In order to quell the grievances of his daughter-in-law, Tian sold all the people and others. The innocent little flower girl who was implicated in.

After saying all that was said, the old lady Wang opened her muddy old eyes and asked blankly, "My lord, what did you ask Xiaohua that girl doing? But where is she now? Before she was sold, the old lady went to see After passing her, I secretly stuffed some food and money with her... the slaves and maids who were sold suffered a lot, and I don't know how she is now..."

With that said, the lady Wang took out her veil and wiped her tears.

Dali Temple was full of confession, and of course she would not tell the wife that the little girl in your mouth is not bitter at all, she has fallen into the blessed nest, and is now a lofty concubine.

He put on an official tone and let people lead the Wangzi down.

Tian had already collapsed to the ground at this time, including Tian's mother.
