Eight hundred and twentieth nine chapters cold palace
Chapter 829 Cold Palace
Shi Zhongchen asked the little eunuch who came to report the letter: "What happened? Why did the emperor summon us?"
The little eunuch who reported the news rarely saw the chief manager once and said flatteringly: "If you go back to the chief manager, it is because of Concubine Xiao Shu. Today, the Empress went to Concubine Xiao Shu's palace and found three straw men..."
Shi Zhongchen whispered and said, "Grass man?" He wiped his sweat clean, threw away the towel, and said, "Don't waste time, talk while walking."
The little eunuch followed him, and while walking, he told the whole story, naturally adding a lot of information.
What does Shi Zhongchen do? He spent his whole life twitching and crawling in the palace. As long as he listened to the beginning, he would know the result. Queen Wang rarely went to Concubine Xiao Shu's palace, but when she went there today, she caught Concubine Xiao Shu's fatal handle. Is this possible? I believe it is possible!
Not to mention that Concubine Xiao Shu would not necessarily do something stupid like a slap man. Even if she wanted to slap, Queen Zha and the new crown prince's straw man would have to do it. Why should I slap the emperor? If the emperor dies and her son has not yet been able to make him the crown prince, then wouldn't she be bad!
Besides, even if you have to do something like a traitor, you have to be very secretive. How could you hide the traitor under the pillow and be searched by Queen Wang all at once?
No matter who the priest is, it is obvious that they do not understand the method of using the priest curse. The correct method should be to priest the priest and put it in the place where the priest is cursed. For example, the priest who curses the King of Queen should be placed in the place where the Queen of Queen sleeps, such as under the bed, and also has to priest blood. A series of priests are very complicated.
But no matter how complicated it is, it is absolutely impossible to put the straw man under the spell caster's pillow. This method of casting the spell is wrong. The great wizard who invented the straw man would not make such a simple thing. Isn't it too much of a price loss? There is no mystery!
When he arrived at Ganlu Palace, the little eunuch finished the matter. Shi Zhongchen snorted coldly in his heart. He had long understood what was going on and there was no need to interrogate them. Those straw men must have been stabbed by Queen Wang himself and then framed Concubine Xiao Shu. This trick is okay to fool others, but it is not easy to fool him... The chief manager can be the one who can be the one who can do it!
Shi Zhongchen entered the Ganlu Palace and saw Li Zhi sitting behind Long Shu's desk, gasping and cursing in a low voice gritted his teeth. It seemed that he was so angry!
Shi Zhongchen thought to himself: "If you don't have such a thing, you will be angry with any emperor. But then again, if you don't make the emperor angry, how can you beat the opponent down? Queen Wang's move is indeed sinister. Oh, it's not the bad woman Wu Meiniang, who gave her a trick, right?"
When Li Zhi saw Shi Zhongchen coming, he slapped the table and said, "Loyal minister, you have come here. I have something to leave to you. You go to interrogate Concubine Xiao Shu, but she dares to slap the straw man and curse me!" As he said that, he threw the straw man out of the table and onto the ground.
Shi Zhongchen silently picked up the drafter, looked at it, thinking, "Whose palace of this kind of straw man can be used as evidence, and it is not certain that it was Xiao Shufei."
Shi Zhongchen took the straw man and asked, "Emperor, what should I ask?"
Li Zhi was stunned and said, "What interrogation did you find?"
Shi Zhongchen frowned and said, "Do you want to interrogate the envoy or a member of the party? Or Xiao Shufei was wronged, so you need to interrogate who was the one who made the straw man?"
His words are very obvious. In fact, what he asked was not the reason, but the result. The so-called "clever officials can't make a decision on family matters. The solution to things in the palace has always turned into small things and small things. This is not a careless treatment or a muddle, but a matter in the palace. As long as you search, you will find the emperor himself. The reason is very simple, because everything in the palace revolves around the emperor, so you will definitely turn into the emperor himself. This cannot be escaped.
Not to mention the palace, even larger families, if something happens, it will circumvent the head of the family. There are big difficulties. The more people there are, the more trouble you will have.
Generally speaking, when dealing with matters in the palace, it is a one-size-fits-all approach, that is, who is to investigate, that is, who cannot be involved!
What Shi Zhongchen asked, the real meaning was, the emperor, is the person you want to repair Xiao Shufei, or the person who framed Xiao Shufei? No matter who is right or wrong, it is based on the emperor's will. Whoever is guilty must be guilty.
This is the principle of doing things in the palace, and Shi Zhongchen is the firm implementer of this principle!
But Li Zhi didn't understand what Shi Zhongchen meant, and he shouted: "The evidence is conclusive, how could it be wronged! We must thoroughly investigate who her accomplices are, who else taught her to make a snail, is that... who is here!"
Shi Zhongchen then understood that the emperor meant to repair Concubine Xiao Shu, and then there would be no Queen Wang. This would be fine, narrowing the impact of the matter to a certain range. As for whether Concubine Xiao Shu was really wronged... who cares? No one except Concubine Xiao Shu himself would really care. Manager Shi would not care even more!
"No matter who is who, I will definitely find out!" Shi Zhongchen bowed and took the straw man out of the hall.
Li Zhi continued to get angry, but after a while, he became sad again. His concubine was actually looking forward to his death, which really made him, a husband, sad. He called the little eunuch and asked the little eunuch to find Wang Ping'an. He wanted to tell the pain and let Wang Ping'an comfort him.
Shi Zhongchen left Ganlu Palace. He called Mi Xiaomiao and said, "You go to Concubine Xiao Shu first and take her to... and take her to Ningxue Pavilion. Our family will examine her there."
Mi Xiaomiao already knew what was going on. When he heard Shi Zhongchen going to Ningxue Pavilion, he couldn't help but be stunned and whispered: "Godfather, isn't that Ningxue Pavilion cold palace? If you want to interrogate such a thing, you should be in the Kiss Building, right?"
Shi Zhongchen snorted and said, "Qinqinlou is a place for interrogation of ordinary crimes. Concubine Xiao Shu was committing a rebellion, so of course he had to go to Ningxue Pavilion. If you ask more questions about this, can you be excusing Concubine Xiao Shu, and you are her accomplice?"
Mi Xiaomiao was so scared that she was shaking. Who did I provoke whom? I was just talking casually, so why did I become a member of the party? He hurriedly said, "No, my son is nonsense. My son deserves to die, my son deserves to die!" As he said that, he swung his hand and began to slap himself in the face.
Shi Zhongchen waved his hand and said, "Since you know that you deserve to die, then don't hurry up and do things to forgive your sins!"
Mi Xiaomiao hurriedly said, "Yes, my son will do business now, and then do it now!" He quickly turned around and ran away.
After running away, Mi Xiaomiao cursed in her heart, why didn't this old man go back to the west? He died sooner, so I'll get on the throne earlier, so I can save myself from looking at his old face all day long!
Shi Zhongchen sighed, called another little eunuch, and said, "Go, go to our hall, bring our whisk, run, hurry up."
Seeing that Mi Xiaomiao was so bad that she dared not be negligent, the little eunuch ran to Guanyun Palace to get Shi Zhongchen's whisk.
Shi Zhongchen did not take his servants, and slowly walked towards Ningxue Pavilion alone. Halfway through the way, the little eunuch chased him and gave him the whisk. Shi Zhongchen gently stroked the whisk and thought to himself: "It's almost twenty years, I haven't used it before. Today it is useful again!"
After walking for a long time, Shi Zhongchen walked to Ningxue Pavilion. At this time, Mi Xiaomiao had already brought Concubine Xiao Shuhe here, and her pen, ink, paper and inkstone were ready, just waiting for Shi Zhongchen to record his confession!
Shi Zhongchen entered the yard, but did not enter the hall immediately. He stood in the yard and looked around. Ningxue Pavilion was a cold palace in the palace, and was specially used to see the concubines who had made mistakes. Ningxue, just like cold, means there is no spring here.
It was extremely desolate. The weeds in the yard were more than half a person tall, and there were no other palaces around Ningxue Pavilion. They stood alone here, only hearing birds singing, but no voices.
Mi Xiaomiao walked over and whispered: "Godfather, Concubine Xiao Shu has been sent into the hall. Do you want to go in now?"
Shi Zhongchen looked at Mi Xiaomiao and said, "Child, do you know why your godfather always asks you to do it recently?"
Mi Xiaomiao hurriedly said, "It's because my godfather looks down on the child and wants to cultivate the child."
Shi Zhongchen nodded and said, "You are a smart child. Your godfather plans to leave it for patriotism. You must do your best to assist patriotism in the future!"
Mi Xiaomiao had no choice but to say again: "Where is the godfather saying, you will live for a hundred years..."
"There are many people in this world who live a hundred years old, but their godfather knows that they will not live a hundred years old." Shi Zhongchen waved his hand and said, "Just just praised you for your cleverness, then now my godfather will ask you, do you know why the godfather didn't take Concubine Xiao Shu to the Kiss Building, but directly took him to this cold palace?"
Mi Xiaomiao did not answer immediately, but blinked her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "Concubine Xiao committed a death sentence, and she would definitely die. She would not be imprisoned in the cold palace. But since her godfather took her here, she wanted to imprison her in the cold palace. In fact, it was equivalent to saving her life!"
Shi Zhongchen patted his shoulder and said, "Yes, that's it. Godfather doesn't want to kill her, do you understand?"
"I understand, understand, my godfather is really kind-hearted." Mi Xiaomiao kept nodding, but thought to herself: "You let go of the damn person, it's not in accordance with the rules. Be careful that someone will use this to make a fuss and sue you to the emperor in the future."
Shi Zhongchen twitched his lips, and a very gloomy smile appeared, and said, "It's good to know. Take people away. Don't leave anyone here. There are some things that you don't know."
Mi Xiaomiao hurriedly said, "Yes, my son can save it." He took all the little eunuchs away, leaving no one left, and before leaving, he closed the door tightly.
After leaving the yard, Mi Xiaomiao thought to herself: "This old man is quite abnormal today! He never regards other people's lives as his life, and never sluts in killing others. Why did he become kind today and want to let Concubine Xiao go? Concubine Xiao and him are not very good, so there is no need to stand up for her, right? It's really inexplicable, extremely abnormal, I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out!"
If I can’t figure it out, of course I don’t have to think about it anymore. It’s not his business anyway. After carrying my hands, Mi Xiaomiao took the people away from Ningxue Pavilion.
Shi Zhongchen slowly walked into the hall. The hall was extremely dilapidated, with dust everywhere and spider webs everywhere. He looked into the middle of the hall and saw Concubine Xiao Shu was tied, lying on the ground, sobbing in a low voice.
Concubine Xiao was repaired in pain. Not only was her hands and feet tied up, but she was still slapped by many big feet during the escort. The little eunuchs have always been in power. When Concubine Xiao was in power, she tried her best to curry favor with her. But once she lost power and could not get over it, the little eunuchs would *** her and enjoy her former master.
Shi Zhongchen walked to Concubine Xiao, untied the rope for her, and said, "Concubine Shu, our family has received the imperial edict and came to interrogate you, but our family knows that you are wronged, so it's better not to interrogate!"
Concubine Xiao was shocked. She usually didn't flatter her to Shi Zhongchen. She never expected that at the most critical moment, Shi Zhongchen would say such words. She cried: "Master General, it's better for you, knowing that I'm wronged."
Shi Zhongchen helped her up, sat at the table, and said, "This is how you write down your grievances and clearly the whole story. The words reveal more true feelings for the emperor, so that our family can be in front of the emperor and say good things for you, are you right?"
Concubine Xiao Shu was even more surprised. How could Shi Zhongchen become so kind? Not only did he not examine himself, but he also wrote about his grievances! Shi Zhongchen is cruel and cruel, and everyone in the palace knows that suddenly became so kind, which really made her a little at a loss!
Shi Zhongchen looked at the paper and pen on the table and said, "If you write with pen and ink, you may not have any words that will make you cry. Otherwise, you should write a book of old wretched books with blood with your clothes and blood. In this way, the emperor will be moved when he read it. I believe you are not guilty, so you can cleanse up your wretch as soon as possible!"
Concubine Xiao was stunned for a moment before nodding. She turned up her coat, tore off the white ***, and a big white collar, bit her fingers, and began to express her grievances.
Shi Zhongchen sat aside, and he took the whisk apart, untied the ponytail, and slowly weaved a long rope. His whisk can be said to be the best whisk of this era. He used not twine ribbons, but the best ponytail, which was tough and strong. He connected the ponytail head to tail and end, intending to knit a long rope.
Concubine Xiao wrote a blood book very slowly, but he knotted the rope even slower. After Concubine Xiao wrote the blood book, his long rope was not yet knotted.
Concubine Xiao handed over the blood letter and said, "Master General, I have written it. Do you want to modify it? If there is something inappropriate, I will rewrite it!"
Shi Zhongchen sighed and said, "How much blood does that cost! Let's see. Come on, do your family a favor and knot the rope." As he said that, he handed the untied rope to Concubine Xiao Shu.
Concubine Xiao didn't understand why she had to tie this long rope, so she asked: "Master General, what are you doing?"
Shi Zhongchen said without raising his head: "Of course it is useful, please help us get it together!"
Concubine Xiao could not understand what Shi Zhongchen meant, so she had to start tying a rope. Shi Zhongchen raised his eyelids, his eyes were full of viciousness. He glanced at Concubine Xiao, lowered his head and read the blood letter!
