The Treacherous Concubine’s Guide To Whitewashing

Wei Xi and Miao Zifang were called into Kunning Palace. I looked up and saw that the queen and concubines were all listed.

Yuan Luo raised his hand to signal them to flatten, and said: "The matter of Liu Cairen is of great importance, and the harem has a lot of discussions about this. My palace and the queen are thinking of closing the case as soon as possible, so as to calm people's hearts. So I called the two to ask, I don't know. Is there any progress on the case?"

Wei Xi cast her eyes on Queen Wei, and saw Queen Wei nodded slightly at him. He smiled at Yuan Luo and said calmly: "The imperial concubine is really well informed, and it is Jin Wuwei who caught the real murderer."

"I don't know who is so frantic and committed such a crime?"

"It's a newly promoted small school in Tianwuwei..."

Wei Xi said, Miao Zifang listened. A clear face with facial paralysis remained unchanged, as if Wei Xi was not talking about his subordinates.

Yuan Luo picked up the tea cup and tasted it slowly. On the surface, Miao Zifang was a lone official who was loyal to Emperor Xianning and had no opinion on Yuan Luo's persecution of Gu Liangyong.

In the early years, he and Gu Liangyong had a very good friendship, which was the friendship that saved each other's lives on the battlefield. Both of them were from the Hanmen of Northern Xinjiang, and they accumulated martial arts to the point of being a master. But then it broke because of a big battle.

It seems that one time when Miao Zifang was the vanguard, Gu Liangyong did not respond in time with his troops and horses, which caused Miao Zifang's lone army to deepen and survived, and the two sides turned against each other since then.

But in Yuan Luo's view, this is more like a game between the two in Northern Xinjiang, a layout that confuses the enemy and lures the enemy to go deep, and finally returns a victory. At the same time, this is also a game that reassures the court.

Although Emperor Xianning was a Ming emperor, he had spared no effort in reforming the political affairs and promoting the poor, but he had a shortcoming, he was extreme and suspicious. Both Gu Liangyong and Miao Zifang were already powerful generals in northern Xinjiang, and they returned privately. That's good. No lord wants to see his cronies become monolithic. So the two broke up and turned around, it was logical.

Why do you think so? It is probably in the original work. After Gu Yi returned to the capital from northern Xinjiang, Miao Zifang, who appeared to have fallen into trouble with the Gu family, helped Gu Yi several times in key battles. The two cooperated well.

But now because of himself, Gu Yi did not live in the north, and was directly arranged under Miao Zifang. With the news sent from Lian Yanqiu, Miao Zifang was very indifferent to Gu Yi, just like an ordinary subordinate, without any care, and sometimes harsh. I am afraid it is also a means to protect this young man.

Yuan Luo put aside the tea cup, and Wei Xi finally finished talking about the results of his investigation. Not unexpectedly by Yuan Luo, the charges were planted on Gu Yi. It sounds like that.

At the time when Liu Cairen was humiliated, Gu Yi had just been stuffed into the Tianwu Guard. He had the time and motivation to commit the crime. He complained about the court, and couldn't do anything frantic! The Auspicious Hall is in the Beigong area where he is responsible for patrolling.

Yuan Luo turned to Miao Zifang: "Does Miao Commander have anything to say?"

Miao Zifang said with a cold face, and stepped forward: "After these two days of investigation, the minister also found a suspect."

His words were simple, and he quickly spoke out the people he found.

By coincidence, he is also a small school, but a person from Jinwuwei. This person is Zhuo Yangcai, a son of a family. He once served as a fifth-rank Yingyang captain in Jinwuwei. The martial arts is not bad. Unfortunately, he is a drunkard and greedy for sex. He has been drunk and bullied the girls before. For his evil deeds, he was demoted and sent to the North Palace to patrol the gate. They also have the time and motivation to commit the crime, although they will not complain about the court, but they lose their morals after drinking, and they can't do anything crazy!

If it weren't for the bad nature of the matter, Yuan Luo would want to laugh.

Wei Ximan said indifferently: "Before the lady of the auspicious palace confessed clues, the person who committed the crime was a handsome young man, and Zhuo Yang is already twenty-six, so he shouldn't be a young man."

"The lady of the court was just a surprised glance. How can I take it seriously? I heard that Zhuo Yang is handsome, and it is not an exaggeration to mistakenly think that he is a teenager." Miao Zi Fang said slowly and glanced at Wei Xi, "What's more, really In terms of appearance, Commander Wei looks more outstanding, isn't it more in line with what a handsome teenager said."

Yuan Luo laughed out loud, she didn't even know that Miao Zifang was also clever.

Wei Xi's expression turned cold, staring at Miao Zifang. It seems that when he took Gu Yi away, Miao Zifang felt angry.

"Bringing the villains to justice is also for the safety of the palace. Commander Miao seems to mind."

Miao Zifang ignored him and arched his hands straight up: "The minister also found out this time that Zhuo Yang not only had a bad record outside the palace, but he also molested the palace maid in the palace. The defendant went to the palace to save him and repeatedly. Empty shifts disrupt discipline and deceive others. How do you think how to deal with such a villain?"

Yuan Luo immediately opened his mouth: "If the evidence is conclusive, how can such a person protect the court, even if it is not the real murderer, he should go out and not stay in Jinwu Guard."

Queen Wei hesitated, "This... this person sounds bad, indeed..."

Wei Xi looked up, staring at her sister ugly.

Empress Wei immediately realized that the situation was not good and stopped.

Concubine Zhuo Shu stood up awkwardly and pleaded: "It's all my concubine's poor teaching, so I am here to plead for my father. It's just that although my elder brother was confused in his early years, since he entered Jinwuwei, he has performed his duties without serious mistakes. Don't dare to commit the heinous crime of forcing the concubine to Ling."

It turned out that Zhuo Yang was the brother of Concubine Zhuo Shu. Queen Wei's face flushed. Yuan Luo was also a little surprised.

Wei Xi bowed and said: "The minister dares to guarantee his wealth and life, so Zhuo Yang has no courage to offend the imperial concubine." Zhuo Yang was also very indifferent, but Zhuo family was regarded as their vassal of Wei Clerk, so he had to protect him. .

Miao Zifang arched his hands and said: "The ministers also dared to guarantee their wealth and life, and there is absolutely no heartbreaker in Tianwuwei who invaded the imperial concubine." Probably because of Yuan Luo's mood, he did not directly name Gu Yi.

Yuan Luo smiled and said, "The two leaders tried to protect the murderer accused by the other from being wronged. Where is the real murderer?"

Miao Zifang said coldly: "Speaking of the real murderer, the minister just received a clue, and it happened this morning."

"What clue?"

"I heard that there was another woman screaming in the back mountain this morning, but when the guards rushed away, there were no figures. But there were signs of struggle and dragging on the back mountain."

Wei Xi's face darkened.

Yuan Luo: ... Did Miao Zifang intentionally or unintentionally?

Queen Wei paid more attention to the news: "The leader of Miao meant that another concubine was killed in the palace."

Miao Zifang leaned slightly, "It's not necessarily a concubine, maybe it's a maid." He turned to look at Wei Xi, "I wonder if Commander Wei has received the news?"

This guy definitely did it on purpose! Someone seems to have unlocked the black belly attribute.

Not wanting to delay any more time, Yuan Luo put down the tea cup and said: "This matter is an internal matter in the palace after all. Since the two armies have caught the suspect, they will be dealt with in the palace. Please ask the two generals to **** Yusi. Strictly interrogate."

This is the purpose of her request to start the trial in advance, so that Gu Yi will continue to stay in Wei Xi's hands. For a day and a night, if he doesn't die, he will be crippled. It is safe to take people over early. She believed in Lian Yanqiu's ability to handle affairs.

She turned to look at the queen.

Queen Wei was unwilling to do so, she nodded and said, "Just follow the imperial concubine."

Concubine Zhuo Shu seemed to be in a trance. Seeing Yuan Luo's gaze turned to her, she was awakened suddenly and nodded: "The concubine empress said yes."

Miao Zifang bowed and saluted: "The suspect in Tianwuwei has been taken away by Commander Wei first, and both of them will bother Commander Wei to hand them over."

Yuan Luo left Kunning Palace and ordered Lian Yanqiu to take over the two suspects.

Naturally, there is no need to mention Gu Yi, but the suspect Miao Zifang said must be interrogated.

A day later, Lian Yanqiu came to report that Zhuo Yang had no time to commit the crime.

Yuan Luo knew Lian Yanqiu's methods of handling affairs well, and Zhuo Yang should be truly innocent.

Then this becomes a problem again.

In desperation, she had to summon Miao Zifang again.

"Commander Miao has been investigating in the past two days, and only found this clue?"

Miao Zifang's gaze lifted, and Yuan Luo Jingliang's gaze disappeared at the touch of a touch. He bowed his head and said: "Niangniang is aware of Qiuhao, and there is another clue, Rong Chen reports."

"The minister has investigated the plum blossom forest in the north in the past two days, and Liu Cairen's personal court lady's search route. He discovered that the villain flew all the way from the north to the corridor, and then dragged Liu Cairen to the back. The pavilion..."

"The whole thing lasted for an hour and a half, and the guards of the two guards were patrolling and arming in groups at night, and occasionally, it was impossible to last for such a long time. Therefore, the ministers dared to believe that the incident was not committed by the guards. "Miao Zifang said frankly.

The corner of Yuan Luo's mouth curled, and it turned out that Miao Zifang had previously pointed out that Zhuo Yang was a talent, completely for revenge on Wei Xi.

"Please forgive my mother."

"It doesn't matter, Zhuo Yang is a black sheep, and he should also clear the team of guards in the inner palace."

"The minister requested an order to strictly search the area north of Beigong Meilin."

Wei Xi listened to the news reported by his subordinates that Tian Wuwei had searched the north of the plum blossom forest, and sneered: "The leader of Miao really worked hard."

He is not a person who speaks the vernacular, Liu Cairen's affairs are too bad, there are such people among the guards, and they are definitely inexcusable. He also followed up closely. The conclusion reached is the same as Miao Zifang.

In terms of time, he did not think that this evil deed would be internally committed by the guard.

He also found the clues Miao Zifang found, but to the north of the plum blossom forest, low-level sweeping eunuchs lived. Could it be that the **** failed to commit the crime. Even if there is a frenzied **** who uses tools to abuse and insult the imperial concubine, it is impossible to leave the child. After finding this, all the clues were broken, and Wei Xi was helpless. He just wanted to kill Gu Yi, and then simply arrested him.

***

Two days later, I didn't expect Miao Zifang to find a clue.

The person who committed this case was really an eunuch, or a quasi-eunuch.

A few months ago, the palace accepted a group of newly recruited eunuchs, preparing to cleanse, but because the chief **** who was in charge of the sword was on sick leave, the matter was delayed for two days. This side of the palace was in heavy snow, and the North Palace was short of sweeping staff, so they borrowed a few people from these uncleansed eunuchs, went to help, and stayed in the room of the sweeping palace in the north at night.

The snow-sweeping job in Beigong was bitter and tiring. One of the young people couldn't bear it. He ran out in the middle of the night and wanted to escape. It was not found until the day, and he was caught back and played a board.

Standing in Kunning Palace, Miao Zifang reported this incident.

Yuan Luo, Queen Wei, and Wei Xi all listened sternly.

Liu Xiuchun was also standing next to him, humiliated, and as the palace chief, he was duty-bound to do anything like this.

Wei Xi's expression next to him was also not very pretty. He had found the clue to the North Palace a long time ago, but never expected that there was a creature like an uncleansed eunuch.

"I have already asked, this little **** has left for more than two hours without seeing his whereabouts, and according to the footprints, he is heading towards the plum blossom forest."

Queen Wei sighed, "It turns out that the Imperial Household Department actually called people who hadn't been cleansed, so it was bold and in vain."

Liu Xiuchun knelt down and kowtowed again and again: "It's all slaves who are not strictly disciplined." In fact, he is also very wronged. There are tens of thousands of eunuchs in the palace. The Beigong is very cold and quiet. How can I manage everything well.

Yuan Luo rubbed her forehead, and Liu Xiuchun was her one, so she had to pull it.

"If this is the case, I will be fined for three months. As a punishment, General Manager Liu must remember in the future that everything in the palace is fine and you have to worry about it."

Queen Wei curled her lips in disdain, and said nothing.

Yuan Luo continued to ask, "Can the prisoner confess?"

"No, this little **** claimed that he did not do it. He was just lost in the plum blossom forest that night." Miao Zifang bowed. Eunuchs belong to the inner palace, and the guards are not good at serving them.

"Finally, I will leave the matter to Manager Liu afterwards, and I hope you will commit your crimes."

Liu Xiuchun knocked her head repeatedly, "Thank you Niang Niang for her generosity."

***

"You didn't see Wei Xi's **** expression at the time, it was blue and white..."

In the guard station, Cai Yunheng was standing in front of the bed, telling Gu Yi vividly about what happened. Without stopping, he helped Gu Yi take off his clothes outside.

Looking at the bluish back and waist, Cai Yunheng cursed: "These **** from the Department of Criminal Justice are really vicious to attack. This is going to destroy you."

Gu Yi smiled, "It's nothing, just raise it."

Cai Yunheng shook his head, this kind of injury can't be resolved by ordinary medicine at all.

"But fortunately, there is also this bottle of medicine. Xuechan cream is the most effective for removing blood stasis and promoting blood circulation, repairing meridians."

Cai Yunheng took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, unplugged the stopper, and a strange fragrance came out, refreshing.

Gu Yi was surprised, "How can I get this precious medicinal material?"

Snow Toad Frost is made from the blood of a magical frosty toad in the Western Regions. This toad is psychic by nature, few in number, and extremely difficult to catch. It is regarded as a **** by the local tribes and will never be offended by ordinary people. Not to mention the high value of the few made elixir, the key is that there is no market.

"Manny Jieyu heard that you were out of prison, and sent someone to bring this bottle of wound medicine." Cai Yunheng explained.

"She is not of prominent origin, how did she get this kind of elixir?"

"I heard that the imperial concubine went to Yuxiu Palace and rewarded Jieyu with a lot of medicinal materials. I think it must be one of them." Cai Yunheng muttered, "You said this imperial concubine is also very strange. He ordered the ruined appearance and ordered to take care of the reward."

Gu Yi was silent.

"This time too. Fortunately, the imperial concubine was in a hurry and interrogated the case in advance." Cai Yunheng said with lingering fears. Gu Yi walked early and didn't hurt his roots. Moreover, Jin Linsi did not continue to be tortured.

"I said she won't let me die." Gu Yi shook his head.

"She doesn't want you to die, but there are a lot of people in the palace who want you to die. Wei Xixia's cruel hand obviously didn't intend to let you out of the Department of Sentences alive."

He said again, "This cruel guy is not capable enough, but he has a lot of scheming. Last time I thought about threatening Ms. Jieyu and let her give false testimony."

When the incident was mentioned, Gu Yi said with a deep face: "I'm about to tell you, such obscure things, you should not trouble Li Jieyu in the future." She was a poor person, and she finally lived in seclusion, how could she Again because he was involved in right and wrong.

Unexpectedly, Cai Yunheng nodded solemnly: "I didn't think about it well. This trip almost humiliated Li Jieyu, and it won't happen in the future."

A clear bruise on the man's neck appeared in Gu Yi's mind, and he said gloomily, "Wei Xi did it."

Cai Yunheng nodded and couldn't help but laugh.

He listened to the conversation between Wei Xi and Yuan Luo all the time, and if it wasn't for the fierce fighting around, he almost laughed a few times. The faces of several Wei Xi's men who fought against him at the time were all brilliant.

Cai Yunheng went through the whole thing one by one.

"Thanks to him, Webster always brags about my family's thousands of miles, Phoenix, and both civil and military. I think that guy Wei Xi can see with a single face, and he doesn't care about things at all. It's really better to be a lady in the palace. Haha, I will call him Niang Niang Wei when I meet in the future."

Cai Yunheng laughed, and Gu Yi couldn't help his mouth twitching.

At this time, a low cough came in.

The two of them were silent, and looked up, Miao Zifang walked in slowly.

Cai Yunheng quickly stood aside, and Gu Yi also put on his clothes to salute.

"No need." Miao Zifang walked to the bed and pressed Gu Yi's shoulder, "Let me see your injury." His tone was indifferent, but with unnoticeable concern.

Gu Yiyiyan sat back.

Miao Zifang stretched out his fingers and gradually pressed them on Gu Yi's chest and back.

Gu Yi trembled slightly, biting without making a sound.

"A few bones are cracked, and the meridians are stagnant." Miao Zifang said solemnly. The torture techniques in the palace have always been vague and vicious tricks. It looked like it was just a beating, but it was actually ruined.

"Fortunately, it's not too deep. It's too late to recover." Miao Zifang took out a bottle of wound medicine from his arms. Unplugging the stopper, a familiar smell came out.

"Ah, it's also Xue Chanshuang." Cai Yunheng blurted out next to him.

Miao Zifang was aroused by the word "also". Looking at Cai Yunheng, he saw the wound medicine in his hand.

"It was rewarded by a nobleman in the previous palace." Cai Yunheng explained with a dry smile.

Miao Zifang's expression remained unchanged, "It's the lady Jieyu from Yuxiu Palace."

Cai Yunheng smiled. He was afraid that Li Jieyu might be involved in this matter, and he still wondered how to prevaricate, but Miao Zifang had guessed it.

Miao Zifang sighed and wanted to say a few more words, but thought that Li Jieyu was also a poor person, and his appearance was ruined. There can be no personal affair between the two.

Just wake up and say: "You have a few points of your own, don't cause unprovoked right and wrong."

Gu Yi said in a deep voice, "The leader can rest assured, even if I don't care about this, I know that innocent people cannot be implicated."

Miao Zifang nodded, closed the lid of the bottle of medicine in his hand, and tucked it back into his arms.

"You turn your back, I will give you medicine."

Cai Yunheng: ...Master, you don't need to live like this.

Miao Zi had taken the medicine from Cai Yunheng's hand expressionlessly. Naturally, this kind of life-saving medicine could save a bottle or a bottle.

Xuechanshuang has an unusually cold disposition and requires internal force to dissolve it in order to fully exert its effects. Miaozi Fang has a profound body, far better than Cai Yunheng, sitting behind Gu Yi, and quickly administering good medicine for him.

"Thank you for the leader." Gu Yi put on his clothes and said sincerely.

The person in front of him has a cold personality and has never been in harmony with his father, but he knew since childhood that Miao Zifang was a cold-hearted person.

"No, you are my subordinate, this is my own business."

Miao Zifang got up and said, "Resting first these days and returning to work when the injury improves."

After a pause, he said: "Besides, that lady Jieyu, remember to thank you."

Gu Yi looked up at him and smiled: "Subordinates obeyed, thank you for your commander."

With Miao Zifang's words, he went to Li Jieyu again, and he also had a legitimate reason, which was regarded as taking part of the responsibility for him.

After the explanation, Miao Zifang got up and left.

When he walked to the door, he suddenly turned his head to look at Cai Yunheng: "Wei Niangniang will not be called in private from now on."

Both of them showed awkward expressions.

But Miao Zifang ignored them and turned away.

Cai Yunheng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help muttering: "Say less in private, then more in public."

The two looked at each other, their boss wouldn't be so dark-bellied.

***

After solving Liu Cairen's case, Yuan Luo felt relieved of a heavy burden.

She was standing on the edge of Hanyue Lake. From here, the plum blossom forest where Liu Cairen had an accident was not far away. The red plum blossoms floated among the branches like patches of red clouds, reflecting the white snow, which was vivid and agile. This is the end of winter, and the red plum has withered a lot, if it is in full bloom, it will be even more beautiful.

With such a beautiful scenery, it's no wonder that Liu Cairen has a great poem and wants to enter the forest to appreciate the scenery and recite poems.

Now that he has been wronged and snowed, a ray of ghost must be able to rest in peace.

A cold wind blew, and she folded her shoulders in the white fox cloak. The weather is so cold, but fortunately winter is about to pass.

Wait... winter! Did she ignore something?

Si Xi stepped forward and persuaded: "Niang Niang, it's cold outside, let's go back and rest."

After talking for a while, she stopped suddenly, Yuan Luo's expression was uncertain and ugly.

"My palace suddenly remembered something, and immediately summoned Wei Xi and Miao Zifang." She almost squeezed this sentence through her teeth.

Almost be fooled!

The case of Liu Cairen is not so simple at all!

The author has something to say: 　　 There is still a chapter in the evening.
