Chapter Eighty-Three: Suspicion of Concubine Hui

“…… Where did the ghost pretend to be that the concubine also made Xiao Yizi pretend to be a ghost, and she was terrified more than him. He was taken down like this, but he hasn't been tried yet, and he's waiting for the emperor and queen to come and interrogate. ”

The queen was both happy and surprised, "Zhao Guiren, you are too bold to take so many people to catch ghosts?" You can think of it, let Xiao Yizi pretend to be more terrifying than this thief, can he not be scared? ”

Concubine Yan was already very impressed by Su Youyi's courage to face Concubine Xian, and she became more and more convinced when she added the section of catching ghosts, and Sima agreed to stare at Su Youyi directly.

If it weren't for the emperor and queen being here, I was afraid that she would have pounced at Su Youyi's feet.

Bai promised to cover his mouth and chuckle, "I thought that someone screamed when he saw a ghost, I don't want tonight's scream to be made by a 'ghost', but the concubine wants to see where this 'ghost' is sacred?" ”

Xiao Yizi was wiping his face with a handkerchief, but the blood and tears on his face were painted with red lacquer, and he couldn't wipe it clean for a while.

He had no choice but to step forward and pluck off the hair of the ghost pretend, revealing a white and beardless face, obviously a eunuch.

Su Youyi glanced at Xiao Yizi, turned her head and whispered a few words to Shuya, and Shuya retreated knowingly.

Gao Qishou stepped forward and raised his head to look at the little eunuch's face, and looked at it for a while before saying, "Your Majesty, this little eunuch is a little familiar, and the slave seems to have seen him." ”

The emperor said: "You take a closer look." ”

"Hey."

Gao Qishou stared at him a few times with dead eyes, but the man just lowered his head and didn't speak, I don't know if he was stupid when he saw the emperor and queen, or if he knew that he was completely dead for a capital crime.

Gao Qishou pinched his face, "The emperor is here, you still don't want to explain honestly, who instructed you to pretend to be a ghost in Yongshou Palace?" ”

The little eunuch was pinched by him, and his face instantly turned a lot.

Gao Qishou's method of teaching the little eunuch is very sophisticated, don't look at him looking thin, but his hands are very powerful, such a pinch is more painful than hitting the board on his body.

Almost all of the people under him are tuned in this way. After being taught, Xiao Yizi couldn't help but stare at it, and felt that his face hurt when he looked at it.

Suddenly, someone tugged at his sleeve, and he looked back to see that it was Shuya, holding a bottle of turpentine in her hand.

Shuya whispered: "Our noble man asked me to give it to you, use this to wipe the paint and it will fall off immediately, you go out and wipe it before you come in, so as not to collide with the girls." ”

Xiao Yizi subconsciously looked at Su Youyi, and there was an inexplicable warmth in her heart, so she hurriedly took it, "Hey, I'll go now, thank you aunt!" ”

The little eunuch who was pinched by Gao Qishou's face couldn't hold his hand for a while, "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life!" The slave is his own ghost and confused, thinking that the Yongshou Palace is uninhabited and goes in to entertain himself, the slave doesn't mean to pretend to be a ghost to scare anyone! ”

"Dare to talk nonsense!"

Gao Qishou slapped him in the face, "How can you pretend to be a ghost to entertain yourself?" Even if you are bold, knowing that the palace maid who picked up the Star Pavilion last night was scared when she saw you, why did you still have fun? Apparently here to scare people! Tell me, who is the one who instigated it? ”

The corners of the little eunuch's mouth were broken, oozing blood, but he gritted his teeth, "There is really no one to instruct it, it is all the slave's own capital crime!" ”

He refused to admit it, and Gao Qishou turned to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the slave has actually recognized it, this little eunuch is on an errand in the Internal Affairs Office." It is said that the servants of the Internal Affairs Office are only responsible for the errands of the Internal Affairs Bureau, and they can't be instructed by the general manager, right? ”

The little eunuch who was kneeling on the ground was not frightened at all when he heard the name of the head of the Internal Affairs Office.

Apparently he was not instructed by the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The emperor said: "Yongshou Palace has been deserted and uninhabited for a long time, and there is only one Star Picking Pavilion nearby, and only on the tower of the Star Picking Pavilion can you see a white shadow under the palace courtyard. This is obviously for the Zhaogui—"

He looked at the little eunuch, "If you tell me who is behind the scenes, I can spare your life." If you don't say it, sometimes it's more painful to live than to die. ”

The little eunuch kowtowed, "The slave is guilty of death, the slave begs for death, and begs the emperor to give the slave death!" ”

What a faithful minion!

The people in the audience couldn't help but be shocked, most of the people who deliberately scared Su Youyi were concubines in the palace, but this little eunuch was on an errand in the Internal Affairs Mansion.

What is the reason for him to be so loyal to an inner palace concubine?

The emperor frowned slightly, and waved his hand, "Send him to the Shen Criminal Division, and use all the punishments to pry his mouth open, so that he can recruit the behind-the-scenes instructions." ”

Su Youyi couldn't help but be frustrated, she finally caught the ghost, she thought that this person who was pretending to be a ghost would definitely confess quickly after being scared, but she didn't expect him to have such a tight mouth.

Although he scared Shuya, Su Youyi felt that this was a bold person.

can buy a palace person from the Internal Affairs Office for his own use, and he can be so loyal, this person behind the scenes must have a lot of background.

Su Youyi's gaze shifted from the queen to Concubine Xian, and then from Concubine Xian to Concubine Hui, Concubine Hui was shocked when she touched her gaze, and subconsciously waved her hand to explain, "Why is Sister Zhao looking at me like this?" This matter was not instructed by Hongu. ”

Everyone subconsciously looked at the two of them, and Su Youyi hurriedly retracted her gaze, "Sister Concubine Hui said with a smile, the concubine just looked at it, and she didn't suspect you." It's just that my sister is so anxious to defend herself, which makes the concubine feel a little uneasy......"

Why did Su Youyi suspect Concubine Hui?

Could it really be that this matter has anything to do with Concubine Hui?

Everyone was shocked, and the emperor coughed lightly, "Zhao Guiren, Concubine Hui's position is above you, and you can't easily doubt it without evidence." ”

Su Youyi blessed her body aggrievedly, "Yes, it's all the concubines who are not good, and the concubines don't dare anymore." ”

The emperor said: "Okay, since the person who pretends to be a ghost has been caught, the rumors in the palace can be self-defeating." It's late at night, so go back and rest. ”

The emperor only asked the concubines to go back to rest, but he didn't say that he wanted to go back, and the queen immediately said: "The emperor is also tired tonight, why don't you rest in the Star Picking Pavilion?" Save yourself from going back and forth. ”

The emperor glanced at her, "It's okay." ”

Everyone bowed and exited the Star Picking Pavilion, Su Youyi's eyes stared at the backs of everyone leaving, silent.

"Are you still suspicious of Concubine Hui?"

The emperor stood silently behind her, looking at her line of sight, but felt that she was not looking in the direction of Concubine Hui, but ......

Su Youyi shook her head, "The concubine has never suspected Concubine Hui, she wants to be good friends with me, what's the use of scaring me?" Fang Cai deliberately made such a fuss, just to make the real murderer relax his vigilance, thinking that the concubine's attention was just on Concubine Hui. ”

The emperor snorted lightly and slowly walked towards the inner room, "There are quite a lot of careful eyes, aren't you afraid that Concubine Hui will turn against you in a hurry?" ”

Su Youyi hurriedly followed, "Then she has to be in a hurry." ”
