"Yuan Yi, did you recognize those two palace ladies?" Emperor Qing asked sharply, with nowhere to vent the anger in his heart.

Nan Yuanyi lowered his head and whispered: "Not found."

Concubine Yun Gui continued: "After the New Year, Queen Liu released several maids from the palace. Those two maids should have been released from the palace."

Emperor Qing looked at Zhang Yuewei again: "Weiwei, what else did they say? Can you tell who they are?"

"After they went out, I hurried to Xunfang Hall. At first, I didn't know who they were. Later, the Queen became aggressive towards me, and I suspected that the two people were the Queen's people. Listen to After speaking to Leng Qiu who was beside the Queen, I was sure that one of the people in Shangyi Pavilion was Leng Qiu." Zhang Yuewei said with a firm look.

After hearing this, Emperor Qing looked at the Queen with gritted teeth: "Queen, what else do you have to say? None of these things have happened without your secret help. I have always respected you. You He actually has hidden evil intentions and has been pretending for more than 30 years."

"Your Majesty, it was the slave who did it. It was all the slave who did it. It has nothing to do with the Queen." Leng Qiu took the blame for the Queen with great righteousness.

The queen looked sad and said: "Leng Qiu, how could you do so many treacherous and unethical things behind my back? How do you ask me to face His Majesty in the future?"

When Emperor Qing saw that the queen still refused to confess, his anger reached the extreme: "Come here, pull Leng Qiu down and give her a thirty-year cane. All the palace servants in Zhongcui Palace will give her twenty, and those who confess voluntarily will be exempted from the cane." "

If the queen has done so many things, someone in Zhongcui Palace must know something.

There were screams one after another outside the hall, and soon someone started to attack.

"Your Majesty, I only know that after the New Year, two maids were killed by bandits on their way back to their hometown because they were from the same hometown as me. My parents were worried about me and mentioned this matter in my letter. I didn't do anything. Please spare me, your majesty." A second-class maid in Zhongcui Palace knelt on the ground and cried.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has a mysterious relationship with the son-in-law of the Wen family, the minister of the Ministry of Industry. She often sends servants to deliver messages to the Wen family. The servant thinks that the Queen has asked the Wen family to do things for her." The father-in-law in Zhongcui Palace knelt down. On the ground, he said with a trembling voice.

The wall collapsed and everyone pushed back. The people in Zhongcui Palace saw that the queen was about to fall. In order to avoid being punished, they told everything they knew. The queen knelt on the ground with a pale face.

After Leng Qiu suffered thirty tortures, he was dragged into the palace, but the queen was still not confessed. Emperor Qing was furious: "Leng Qiu, I have always been kind and soft-hearted, but that doesn't mean I don't dare to kill. I ask you for the last time, what is the meaning of everything?" The Queen did not instruct you."

"Your Majesty, this slave did everything alone." Leng Qiu said weakly, insisting on refusing to reveal the queen.

"My aunt Leng Qiu, who is in charge of Zhongcui Palace, deliberately plotted to kill me and cause chaos in the harem. I will pull down the stick and kill her nine tribes." Emperor Qing announced with a gloomy look.

Everyone was shocked. Since your Majesty came to the throne, you have not punished any of the Nine Clans. Even when the Southern King conspired to rebel, Your Majesty only killed people from the Nan Wang Palace and did not harm the Nine Clans. It seems that Your Majesty is going to do it this time. Really angry.

Leng Qiu's face was pale, and she struggled to be dragged out of the palace. She shouted in panic: "Your Majesty, I'm here for you. I'm here for you. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on my nine tribes."
