Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother
Chapter 204: Getting to the bottom of things
After a while, the front hall was filled with people and was extremely crowded.
Yinzhen looked at everyone present with an imposing manner, and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, what were you doing when Concubine Qi and Concubine Nian fell? Did you see who pushed Concubine Qi?"
All the servants were silent, trembling with fear, and they couldn't help but stammering when they spoke.
"I was looking after the lanterns...what, what...I didn't see anything."
"My Lord, I was looking after the Sixth Prince, and I didn't see anything."
After asking more than half of them, he found that there was no grudge between them and he had not seen anything. Yinzhen lowered his eyebrows and eyes, saying without showing any emotion, "To murder the emperor's grandson is a heinous crime. If anyone dares to conceal the truth, he will be treated as an accomplice!"
Upon hearing this, three maids showed a little panic on their faces, including Rouze's personal maid Yunjin.
Yes, besides Yun Jin, there were others who also saw some clues! However, they did not see the man's face clearly, only a little bit.
However, just this little bit was enough to make them panic. There was only one reason for this, and that was that the matter involved the private affairs of the rear house, and they could not afford to offend any of their masters!
As for Yunjin's mistress, the fourth wife Ulanara Rouze? Her face was filled with indignation, and her heart and eyes were filled with indignation for Nian Shilan.
The hall was brightly lit, and the scene off the stage was in full view, but Yinzhen could not bear to watch any longer.
Rouze, oh Rouze, with the old grudge between you and Nian, isn't it self-incrimination if you act like this? You are just being clever, and your true colors are all exposed!
After a long silence, he licked his lips and squeezed out a word from his throat, "Go on."
The first person standing in the seventh row, wearing green clothes, happened to be one of the people with a strange expression. She hesitated and replied, "Your Majesty, I saw someone pushing Concubine Qi, but it was dark at night, and I only saw a sleeve... that sleeve, it didn't look like the sleeve of a maid, but... it looked like the sleeve of a master in the mansion..."
Before she finished her words, she fell to her knees in fear, not daring to say any more.
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar!
One master pushed down another master with her own hands, which in turn implicated yet another master and her unborn grandson. Such secret affairs in the harem had never happened in the past ten years, so no matter whether they were maids or concubines in the backyard, they were all scared half to death.
As the concubine in charge of the government affairs, she made such a big mistake. Yixiu's face turned pale and she immediately knelt down to apologize: "I am a bad housekeeper, please punish me, Your Majesty!"
"Get up, this is not your fault! A fly won't nest in an egg that has no cracks. Nian Shi came to join in the fun despite being nine and a half months old, and that's why she was targeted by someone with ulterior motives..."
Qi Yuebin interrupted him and said, "Master, this is too scary. You are so cruel just for a small dispute. It doesn't matter where I get hurt, but my sister Nian is more than nine months old. If Song Zhi hadn't protected her in time, there would be a high possibility that both of them would die!"
"Yes, Master, since I entered the mansion, I have never seen such a cruel thing. Isn't it said that it is a taboo in the mansion to attack the offspring?"
"Master, you have to make a decision for Sister Nian. Such a vicious and cruel person cannot be tolerated, otherwise there will never be peace in the mansion!"
This sudden exposure of the secrets in the backyard has touched the backyard people's sore spots. They are deeply afraid that it is Nian Shilan today, and they will be replaced tomorrow! More importantly, each of them has children, and when the time comes, I am afraid that no one can escape!
Even the brainless Li and Fei knew very well that if a precedent of murdering offspring was set, their own Third Prince and Fifth Princess would be the first to suffer, as they could not protect their children with their crude means.
Yinzhen felt a headache after listening to this. For the first time, he felt how unbearable it was to have a bunch of women talking in his ear!
"Okay, stop talking, I promise you!"
After saying this, he waved his hand, indicating that he should continue asking questions.
Soon someone gave another clue: "When Concubine Qi fell, I saw someone move, but there was a panic at the time and I didn't see the person's face clearly. But the person was wearing a flower pot bottom, and the shadowy figure looked very beautiful."
Immediately, everyone present turned their eyes to the masters who had flowers on their backs, namely, the five masters: Fujin, Xianshu Concubine, Li Shu Fujin, Song Gege, and Feng Gege.
Before Geng Gege and Fei Gege could secretly rejoice that they were wearing ordinary brocade boots today, Yinzhen personally stepped forward to dispel Yixiu's suspicion, "It was not Yixiu's fault. She was by my side when the accident happened, and she didn't move a step."
Yixiu looked at him with a hint of gratitude, and then stepped forward to dispel Li's suspicion. "Sister Li was standing on my left at that time. How did she squeeze through the crowd and run to Sister Qi's right or behind? She didn't move a step."
While they were talking, two people had already cleared the suspicion. Seeing that only Fu Jin, Song Gege and Feng Gege were left, they could no longer sit still.
Rouze coughed a few times, covered her chest with one hand, wiped the tears with a handkerchief, and said aggrievedly, "Master, I am the fourth wife of the emperor, the mistress of the main house, and I have no children. Why would you murder your children? Even if I was a little close to Qi's family at that time, it was only because it was a good place to watch the fireworks. I guess that's why Song and Feng stood there, right?"
I won’t give up until I reach the Yellow River. I can’t give up today!
Song lowered her head slightly and took a step forward obediently, "My Lord, my maid can testify for me that I did not move a step from beginning to end!"
Feng was unwilling to be outdone: "My maidservant can also testify for me..."
Rouze sneered: "The maids have always been in cahoots with their masters. They prosper together and suffer together. How can their testimonies be trusted?"
Seeing the man in front of him refuse to repent and never feel guilty, Yinzhen finally couldn't bear it anymore. He shouted, "Yunjin! It's your turn. Tell me."
"I...I...I didn't see anything..." Yun Jin was so scared that she fell to her knees with a plop. She stammered for a long time before she squeezed out two words.
Yinzhen slammed the table hard, and the teacups on the table fell to the ground, and everyone was startled.
"Why don't you tell the truth? Is your master really innocent? Or do you want me to kill all your relatives?"
