Not to be missed!
Xiao Qin'er wanted to make it up to him, but of course Liu Yi refused to let go of this rare opportunity.
He took the opportunity to blackmail a fortune.
Got a lot of private money.
He was sure that no one would speak loudly about the truth about what happened in Xingqing Palace.
It is also impossible for Xiao Qin'er to really enter the palace to ask the empress.
This means that it is impossible for Xiao Qin'er to know the truth.
It can make her bow her head and admit her mistakes, and she can also get a lot of compensation. For Liu Yi, today is not all bad things.
He couldn't win, and he was almost disfigured. It was really aggrieved.
But to make Xiao Qin'er bow her head and admit her mistake, the beating is worth it.
Xiao Qin'er was concerned about the treatment of Xiao Shu'er in the palace, and had no time to study what Liu Yi said.
Even if she knew the truth, she might still give Liu Yi a compensation.
Men are sometimes just like children and need to be coaxed.
…
The Intelligence Department and the Jinwu Guard dispatched to investigate and make unannounced visits, and finally figured out the matter.
I can't blame Xiao Qin'er for targeting Xiao Shu'er.
Xiao Shu'er was really stupid this time and did something she shouldn't have done.
As the saying goes, cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness.
When Lin Shuping brought people to the mansion to arrest them, Xiao Shuer quickly came to her senses.
"I haven't seen him for a few days, and no one knows where he went. Ben Gong guessed that something happened to him. Maybe he has confessed everything about Ben Gong and him. It's just that I didn't expect that you would come so soon .”
She is indeed a smart person.
"The concubine knows the consequences of this matter, why would she do such a wrong thing." Lin Shuping said with emotion.
Xiao Shu'er smiled sadly, "Elder-in-law is not a woman, how can we know what we women think. When the late emperor passed away, I was not yet thirty. I was going to be a widow at a young age, with a child, and guarding a mansion. Outsiders looked at it and thought This palace is well-clothed and well-fed, with a noble status, and this life is worth it.
As everyone knows, this mansion is like a prison to me. Because I am a widow, I have to abide by the rules and regulations everywhere. Not becoming a nun is better than becoming a nun. Such days are really bitter! "
As she spoke, she burst into tears.
Lin Shuping shook his head, "This is not the reason for the empress to make mistakes. So many concubines are also young, and no one is like the empress who knows what to do."
Xiao Shu'er heheed twice, "Do you think they don't want to? Their hearts are the same as Bengong's, as lonely and lonely, and they don't even have anyone to talk to. Because they are widows, they don't even dare to wear bright red and green clothes. Between them So I can abide by the rules and dare not take a wrong step, not because I don’t want to, but because I am afraid of death! They are all cowards. I am not a coward, I am braver than them.”
Lin Shuping said: "Only cowards live long these days. Your Majesty is indeed very courageous, and our family is willing to bow down. However, what you have done will leave traces. Now that the incident has happened, does your Majesty regret it?"
Xiao Shu'er smiled, "Recently, the palace has been calm and calm, so I thought I guessed wrong. Maybe he just left the capital and was not arrested. It turned out that he came here for whatever he was worried about. People really can't take chances Heart. If you ask me if you regret it, as early as when you took the first step, I already expected that today will happen. Living is very boring, but dying is all over and happy."
Lin Shuping said: "The empress is not chaste, and she can't be buried in the imperial tomb after death. I can only find another tomb for burial. Does the empress know?"
Xiao Shu'er smiled sarcastically, and said slowly: "I don't care to be buried next to the late emperor at all. I feel disgusted in my heart when I think that I have to be controlled by him in life, and I still can't escape his palm after death. I would rather be buried in the It is better to be alone on the hillside of a human being than to be buried in the imperial mausoleum and be oppressed by him life after life."
Lin Shuping frowned, "Your Majesty's words are inappropriate! This is disrespect to the late Emperor!"
Xiao Shu'er raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I'm going to die anyway. Before I die, can't I tell the truth a few words? I just hate the late emperor, I don't want to be buried in the imperial tomb, and I don't care about the status of the concubine. How about it?"
Lin Shuping sneered, "Your Majesty said that she doesn't care about the status of a concubine, but she enjoys the treatment of a concubine as a matter of course. The clothes she wears are all luxurious! Why can't widows wear red and green? I didn't see it on the empress."
Xiao Shu'er laughed, "Do you know why? It is precisely because I don't care about my identity that I want to wear red and green as I like, instead of wearing old-fashioned dark clothes every day, and I am more than ten years old. I know that Eunuch Lin looks down on me , thinking that disobedience to women's morals has ruined the reputation of the late emperor. I still want to say, I just want to live for myself, is this also wrong?"
"It's not bad, the empress has her own judgment in her heart, so our family will not talk too much."
Xiao Shu'er nodded, "Eunuch is right, the answer is in my heart, I don't need other people's approval. Eunuch is here today, white silk, dagger, or poison? No matter which one, I can accept it calmly. .”
Lin Shuping clapped his hands, and a tray came up from Xiaohuangmen.
On the tray was a porcelain vase.
Lin Shuping pointed to the porcelain bottle and said: "Your Majesty personally bestowed the poison to the concubine. It is a great honor. This medicine will hurt a little, but it will be relieved soon. Moreover, the body is not easy to rot after death, but it can be used The beauty of the empress is preserved.
In addition, His Majesty is merciful and gave the concubine three days to take care of the family affairs and bid farewell to her relatives. Three days later, our family will personally go to the house to collect the body for the empress. I hope that the empress will not disappoint His Majesty's grace, otherwise, no one can guarantee that your child will live in peace. "
Xiao Shu'er simply took the porcelain bottle containing the poison.
"Eunuch, don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. Three days later, I will definitely have an explanation. Before I die, I have a small request, I don't know if I should say it or not."
"My lady, please tell me."
"I want to choose the tomb myself, and I ask my father-in-law to agree."
Lin Shuping shook his head, "Our family can't promise you this matter. After the empress dies, she can't be buried in the imperial mausoleum. It's not up to the empress to decide where she should be buried. The Shaofu will arrange the funeral affairs of the empress and choose the tomb for the empress. buried."
Xiao Shu'er sighed, "It's really helpless! Marrying into the royal family, not only can't be the master when alive, but also can't be the master when he is dead. Hey...then I have another request, can I watch him die with my own eyes? .”
When she said him, she naturally meant the man who was arrested, her face.
Lin Shuping still shook his head, "This person has been escorted to the Jinwu Guard and will be executed tonight!"
"What punishment?"
"Corruption punishment, and then beating to death with sticks."
Hahaha…
Xiao Shu'er couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard this.
"It turned out to be a punishment of corruption!"
Corruption is castration.
He had to be castrated first and then executed.
Worthy of being royal.
Killing all blazes style and character.
"I'm just a widow, why is that so!"
"The empress is the late emperor's woman, and no man is allowed to touch her." Lin Shuping said seriously.
Xiao Shu'er sneered, "We have always encouraged widows to remarry in this dynasty. Only in the royal family, they still have the same virtues as they did thousands of years ago. Forget it, forget it, people in this palace are soft-spoken, and there is no way to change the rules of the royal family on their own. Eunuch, please go back, For the next three days, I will cherish it and handle the family affairs properly."
Lin Shuping nodded, leaving behind the guarding mother and Xiao Huangmen, and got up and left with the rest of the people.
"Come here, prepare hot water. I want to burn incense and take a bath!"
To die is to die cleanly.
She will cherish the three days.
…
When Xiao Qin'er learned that Xiao Shu'er was going to be given to death, Xiao Shu'er had only one day left.
"Your Majesty really can't tolerate this matter, it really is death."
Liu Yi stared at himself in the mirror, observing the changes in the wound.
He complained: "She is about to die, and finally got what you wanted."
Xiao Qin'er was furious, "I did all this for you and for this family. From your tone, you feel sorry for her! Don't forget, she is the one who stole people, and she did something wrong .If she doesn't steal people, I can't hold her account."
Liu Yi sighed, "Don't forget, you and her are sisters of the same mother! I sent my sister to the guillotine with my own hands, how do you feel? Brother Huang and I are in the royal family, and we have nothing to do with each other. I thought about doing such a poisonous hand. And you... are the most poisonous to women's hearts."
"Shut up! Anyone can blame me, but you are not qualified. If it wasn't for you, for this family, for the children, I would not have made the decision to send my own sister to the guillotine. You asked me how I feel I tell you, you have no right to ask at all! You are a coward, a coward! As long as you can bear the burden of this family, why should I be a villain. Who wants to be clean and innocent for life. It is you It forced me to be cruel and become a vicious woman! You forced me to do all of this."
Xiao Qin'er broke down and cried.
Obviously, you should feel happy, and your wish for many years will be fulfilled once.
But when things came to an end, she couldn't be happy at all.
She is having a hard time!
She felt sorry for herself, lamentable.
How did you get to this point today!
She was not such a vicious woman, let alone her own sister.
"Are you regretting it? But it's too late!"
Xiao Qin'er wiped away her tears and angrily reprimanded Liu Yi, "I have no regrets, not the slightest bit of regret."
"Then why are you crying?"
"I'm crying for myself! I feel worthless for myself! I feel sad for myself. For a man like you, my own sister and I have turned against each other. It's not worth it to think about it until today. Because you never care , no matter how many things I do for you, you never take it to heart."
Xiao Qin'er kicked over the small stool and walked out the door.
Liu Yi called her to stop, "Where are you going?"
Xiao Qin'er pointed to her heart, "I'm indeed a vicious woman, but I also have a conscience. I'm going to see her off for the last time. As for you, go to hell! You bastard!"
