Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan
Chapter 479: Discovering the Blood Letter
As she spoke, the Queen, supported by Jianqiu, sat down at the table, looked at Su Peisheng and said coldly:
"Do you think that I will never be able to leave this Ganlu Temple, so you dare to ignore me so fearlessly?"
After saying this, the queen slammed her hand heavily on the table.
Seeing this, Su Peisheng knelt down hurriedly:
"Please forgive me, Queen. I am a servant who doesn't know how to do things. I have made you angry. I deserve to die."
"But, Madam, you have to be considerate of me. I am just a dog in front of the Emperor. I have to do whatever the Emperor tells me to do. I have no say in this!"
"I will wait until I return to report to the Emperor, and then I will come to apologize to the Empress."
After saying that, Su Peisheng stood up from the ground, looked at the guards beside him and said:
"Get some of each of these medicines out, and leave the rest for the Empress. The Emperor must be waiting anxiously in the palace, so hurry up!"
Su Peisheng did not give the queen any chance to speak. He completed the whole process in one go. After finishing everything, he bowed to the queen and took his leave.
The Queen looked at Su Peisheng's departing back and snorted coldly:
"Su Peisheng, even if you take all these things back, what will happen?"
"Do you think that the Emperor would take my life just because of a humble nun?"
"Hahaha……"
As the queen spoke, her eyes turned red, and she raised her head and laughed like crazy:
"Let alone a nun, even if I killed Concubine Xi, the Emperor would not depose me as the Queen!"
"The emperor values filial piety and reputation the most. He will definitely not disobey the empress dowager's last will!"
After saying that, there was another burst of laughter.
Su Peisheng no longer maintained his outward modesty at this time, but looked at the queen coldly and said:
"Your Majesty's wishes, I cannot influence you, but I do know that there is nothing in this world that you cannot accomplish as long as you want to."
"Whether it's the Queen Mother or Queen Chunyuan, the final decision will still depend on the Emperor's wishes."
As he spoke, Su Peisheng bowed to the queen again:
"Your Majesty, please take care. I will take my leave."
After saying that, Su Peisheng arranged several guards to guard outside the door as ordered by the emperor, and then left without looking back.
Only the queen was left behind and said in despair:
"I will always be the Empress of the Qing Dynasty. I will always be the Empress of the Qing Dynasty..."
Chengqian Palace.
After receiving the news, all the concubines rushed to Chengqian Palace.
After Su Peisheng returned to the palace, he immediately reported to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, these are the things I brought back from the Queen on your orders."
The emperor lowered his head and twirled the green pearl sack in his hand. He said nothing, but just looked in the direction where the imperial physician was kneeling.
Su Peisheng immediately understood and handed the item in his hand to the imperial physician for inspection.
"What about people?"
After the emperor quickly glanced around the palace, he looked at Su Peisheng and asked.
Su Peisheng knew that the person the emperor was talking about was Jing Bai, so he immediately bowed and said:
"Reporting to the emperor, Master Jingbai had already died before I went to Ganlu Temple... I brought her body back intact."
As he spoke, Su Peisheng glanced towards the door and said:
"Just outside the temple."
"died?"
Zhen Huan asked in surprise after hearing Su Peisheng's words.
Su Peisheng nodded:
"I heard from the sister-in-law who is the guard that he died this morning. He bit his tongue and committed suicide."
"The specific situation should be told to the emperor and the ladies in charge by the sister-in-law who is guarding Master Jingbai."
Seeing that the emperor had a gloomy face and lowered his head without saying anything, Su Peisheng called in his sister-in-law who was waiting outside the palace.
"I kowtow to His Majesty and all the ladies."
My sister-in-law was obviously a little nervous.
Zhen Huan noticed something and looked at her sister-in-law and said:
"Don't panic, just tell me everything you know."
The sister-in-law nodded and began to tell Jingbai why she was imprisoned and every detail of what happened since she started guarding Jingbai, word for word.
After hearing this, in order to avoid the emperor's suspicion, Zhen Huan asked:
"That letter was given to you by Master Jingbai to deliver to me?"
"Yes."
The sister-in-law nodded and said:
"The writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone were also given to my uncle by me."
"Master Jingbai couldn't speak, so she could only communicate with me by gestures. I saw that her clothes had a long tear, so I thought she must need needlework, so I gave it to her."
"Later, the needle fell to the ground and I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked. I thought, it's not a big thing, I can just buy it and replace it myself, so I didn't ask her to look for it anymore..."
"Besides that, is there anything else abnormal about her?"
The emperor, who had not spoken for a long time, heard this and suddenly asked:
"For example, did she ever write anything... in blood?"
"How did the emperor know that Master Uncle had an injury on his hand?"
When the sister-in-law heard the emperor ask this, a look of surprise suddenly flashed in her eyes.
But then it dimmed again:
"This morning, after I found out that my uncle had passed away, I accidentally touched her hand and discovered that there was blood on her right index finger..."
"really?"
The emperor stopped twirling the Buddhist beads in his hand, looked at his sister-in-law and asked excitedly.
Obviously, all these coincidences made the emperor want to confirm whether Zhen Huan's dream really existed.
The sister-in-law saw the emperor's expression change, and nodded quickly and said:
"Everything I said is true. If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, your uncle is outside and will know it at a glance."
Ever since hearing Zhen Huan's dream, the emperor has had a doubt in his mind:
This mysterious thing was either caused by human power or it was a warning from God.
After pondering for a moment, the emperor decided that he should first look at Jingbai's body before making a conclusion.
Thinking about it in his heart, the emperor glanced at Su Peisheng, then took Zhen Huan's hand and waited there together.
After Jingbai's body was carried in, all the concubines were so scared that they covered their noses with handkerchiefs and took a few steps back.
But when they saw the emperor asking Su Peisheng to check, they couldn't help their curiosity, so they plucked up their courage, stretched their heads and wanted to find out what was going on.
Su Peisheng followed his sister-in-law's instructions and pulled up Jingbai's right hand. When he placed his index finger in front of everyone, he saw that there were indeed wounds on Jingbai's hand, which looked very much like marks from being bitten by teeth.
Su Peisheng then searched Jingbai's body again, but did not find anything like the blood letter that the emperor mentioned.
At this moment, the careful An Lingrong discovered the key point:
"Your Majesty, didn't this sister-in-law just say that a needle was lost?"
"I like needlework and embroidery the most..."
"In my humble opinion, if someone really has something like a letter hidden and doesn't want it to be discovered, it's not a bad idea to sew it inside a piece of clothing!"
