The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess!

Chapter 60: : Princess Rong pleaded guilty

"After Fan Xiaowen's death, Wei Wenchang took advantage of everyone's attention and quietly wiped out the poppy pollen, without knowing it. However, the examination of the imperial physician and Dali Temple only found that Fan Xiaowen died of an asthma attack, and then he became ill. At that time, so many people witnessed it with their own eyes, so that the method of death was reasonable and reasonable, and no one would suspect that this was the murder of others."

Murong remarked and analyzed the case clearly and reasonably.

Shen Zhiyan shook his palm again, admiring him very much, "His Royal Highness's speculation is absolutely irrelevant."

Murong Yu's face was heavy, and he did not expect that His Royal Highness could guess the facts of the case based on clues in such a short period of time. Although the facts of this case are not very complicated, it involves the Ministry of Rites, the servants of the Wuying Hall and the Concubine Rong, and ordinary people simply cannot connect these unrelated people and things together. In addition to being bold and careful, you also need a clever and lofty mind.

Xiao Yongzi opened his mouth slightly and looked at His Royal Highness blankly, her ashen face full of shock.

His Royal Highness actually inferred that this matter was not bad at all, it was really a god-man.

In the next moment, the fear of death grabbed his heart, and the tragic death of his family seemed to be reflected in front of him. Suddenly he could not breathe, and his soul flew away.

It doesn't matter if he is dead, but he never wants to hurt his family.

Murong Yu's eyes were as dark as midnight, "So, Concubine Rong instructed Xiao Yongzi to murder Fan Xiaowen. But why did Concubine Rong do this?"

Murong Ci smiled, "Concubine Rong is the daughter of Rong Guo Gong Rong's family, so she naturally wants to help her nephew Rong Qing Ting. Rong Qing Ting also participated in the competition this time, and she hopes to be in the top three."

Shen Zhiyan continued: "Rong Qingting's talent is second only to Fan Xiaowen. He is as gentle as a jade, Yushu is in the breeze, and with his distinguished background and famous talent from all over the world, he is also a beloved person in the hearts of many famous ladies. Rong Qingting works in the household department. Although his position is low, his future is unlimited."

Speaking of the famous masters in Beijing, he can be regarded as precious.

"As long as Fan Xiaowen, the number one talented man in the Northern Yan Kingdom, dies, isn't it Rong Qingting who will benefit the most?" She smiled quietly, "Furthermore, Rong Qingting has practiced martial arts for many years, and he is considered both civil and martial arts. The chance is great."

"For the sake of her nephew, Concubine Rong did not hesitate to use her body to kill Fan Xiaowen in secret." Murong Yu's deep eyes flew with a trace of contempt, "She also made a contribution to the Rong family and gave the Rong family a great gift. "

"Concubine Rong thought that the murder was unknowingly, but I didn't expect that all of this would be understood by His Highness." Shen Zhiyan smiled and looked at Xiao Yongzi, "What else do you have to say?"

"His Royal Highness is wise, what His Highness said is not bad. The slave pleaded guilty, and the slave is at his disposal, begging His Royal Highness and the prince to forgive his family." Xiao Yongzi really panicked, afraid of ghosts, and banged his head, his forehead knocked out. The blood does not stop.

"If you do what this palace says, this palace will forgive your family." Murong Ci sneered meaningfully.

...

After receiving the pardon, the young talents were finally able to leave the palace and return to the mansion, all leaving in swarms.

At this time, the main hall of the Wuying Palace, the short case was withdrawn, leaving only the case that Fan Xiaowen had used, standing there alone, as if telling the deceased's grievances.

The first two sculptured chairs in the north were Murongci and Murongyu. Shen Zhiyan was standing by Murongci, and a group of people in the ceremony department were waiting on Murongyu's side.

In such a comparison, the number of people is very different, and the momentum is also good or bad.

Murong Ci and Shen Zhiyan looked at each other, Murong Yu looked in his eyes, and suddenly felt bored.

All three of them knew that Concubine Rong could completely shirk the blame, and it was very difficult for her to confess her guilt.

"Concubine Rong is here!"

The insider's announcement came from outside.

The voice fell to the ground, and a woman in her thirties walked in neatly and swiftly, not like the demeanor of an ordinary beauty.

Her appearance is dignified and beautiful, and she is really not a choice in the beautiful harem. However, she was born in the Rong family, one of the four great families, and it is only natural for her to be a member of the harem concubine.

The emperor favors the daughters of the four great families, which is an imperial check and balance technique that balances the powers of various families and multiple factions. For the four great families, having a daughter in the harem is a guarantee and a consolidation of the court status.

Concubine Rong has been in the palace slightly less than Concubine Qiao, but she is considered an old man. Because the appearance was only medium to upper, so she was not very favored at the beginning. After being favored, Concubine Xiao did not see her for half a year. For so many years, she only gave birth to Princess Jinyang.

She is a concubine, but because of her lack of favor, her status is not as good as that of a straw prince, let alone a powerful imperial king.

However, she didn't salute them, just gave a meeting salute indifferently.

Murongci asked her to sit down and said with a clear smile, "If you want Concubine Rong to come to the Wuying Hall all the way, don't blame Concubine Rong."

Concubine Rong Shi Shiran took a seat and said with a smile: "How could it be? Your Royal Highness, Prince, I don't know what's important?"

Rong Guogong is a general. In the past few decades, three generals have appeared, and they have become famous for a while, and their reputation is growing day by day. Although the concubine Rong, who was born in Jiangmen, has been immersed in the palace for many years, she can still see her family style and act smoothly.

However, no one thought that Jiangmen Rong's family would actually have a talented man named Rong Qingting.

"There are some things that my palace and the imperial king have quite doubts, so please ask Concubine Rong to answer questions." Murong Ci smiled and waved outwards.

"His Royal Highness, please say, this palace must know everything." Rong Fei said readily.

"I heard that Xiao Yongzi was expelled from the palace by Concubine Rong three years ago. Is that true?"

"That's true. Xiao Yongzi made mistakes again and again, and he was expelled from the palace. Later, it was heard that he was deployed to the Wuying Palace as a errand."

"I wonder what wrong he made?"

"Xiao Yongzi has been in this palace for many years, and he is in charge of the palace's bedroom. The master and servants are very close. In those days, he was agile, agile, and careful, so this palace put him in charge and asked him to take good care of this palace. His bedroom. Unexpectedly, a few years later, he would learn to gamble outside the palace and set up a private gambling game in the palace’s bedroom. After learning about it, the palace scolded him severely and fined him twenty sticks." The concubine sighed slightly, with a very regretful tone, "When I saw that he was really repenting, I gave him a chance. How could I expect that he would never repent, but still set up a private gambling game in the palace, making the palace's bedroom smoky. This time my palace hardened my heart and drove him out."

"It turns out that's the case." Murongci looked at Shen Zhiyan, curled his lips and said, "Then Concubine Rong has seen him again in the past three years?"

"I haven't seen it before. The palace is very simple, and the Royal Garden is also a rare visit. How can I meet him?" Concubine Rong regretted that she must have found out about these things, and then said, "My palace remembered. I saw it on the palace road a few days ago."

At this time, Xiao Yongzi was brought in and knelt down to worship the superior. His eyes touched Concubine Rong, he instinctively retracted his gaze, seemingly guilty. Concubine Rong remained calm and her complexion was as usual.

Murong resigned: "Xiao Yongzi, Concubine Rong is here. Tell me your grievances face to face."

Xiao Yongzi originally hung his head, thinking of his parents, parents and elder brother's family who would be affected by him. He hardened his heart and gritted his teeth, saying: "His Royal Highness, the slave confessed his guilt, but the slave and Master Fan have no grievances and no grudges, so how can they be missed? Kill him for no reason? The minion dare not harm him even if he has a thousand guts. Concubine Rong instructed the minion to harm Master Fan."

Concubine Rong’s complexion changed slightly, her long eyelashes trembled, but she still didn’t change her face, "Xiao Yongzi, how can you frame this palace with nonsense? Why does the palace ask you to harm people? The palace didn’t hand you over three years ago. In the Chamber of Internal Servant, chasing you out is the most benevolent and righteous, how dare you spit others to frame this palace? This palace is really blind and raised you as a white-eyed wolf..."

She became more and more angry with her words, her face turned pale with anger, and she said bitterly, as if she regretted the decision that year.

"Concubine Rong doesn't need to be angry, drink tea to calm her breath." Murong Ci smiled coolly, "Concubine Rong, don't you know? Fan Xiaowen died of asthma."

"Fan Xiaowen? Is that the eldest son of a member of the Hanlin Academy?" Concubine Rong was shocked. "Life is really impermanent, hey..."

"Princess Rong, if you plead guilty, this king will only punish you. If you do not plead guilty, this king has reason to suspect that you have linked up with Lord Rongguo and conspired to kill Fan Xiaowen. Long Yan will be furious, what will happen to Lord Rongguo? , You know better than anyone else." Murong Yu's tone was light, but his words were heavy, which made people feel embarrassed.

Concubine Rong's complexion was faintly pale, and her eyebrows that had always been calmly trembled with her long eyelashes at this time, obviously thinking about how much they had found out.

At this time, a guard came in and was about to play, but he waved his hand, and a dazzling cold light burst out of his deep eyes, "Rong Fei, this king gives you one last chance."

Concubine Rong condensed with a somewhat heroic look, her eyes filled with determination, "Yes, it was my palace who instructed Xiao Yongzi to kill Fan Xiaowen."

The matter has been revealed, the most important thing now is to keep the Rongguo Palace safe and sound.

The imperial king, who has always been strict in law enforcement and with iron and blood, tried the matter. If she did not plead guilty, she would give him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to move the Rong clan, fearing that the Rong clan would encounter a terrible disaster.

As for her, she has lived enough in the deep palace.

However, she pityed her young daughter, Princess Jinyang.

She only hates herself, she counts everything, misses the prince and the king, and underestimates their minds.

The guard said: "His Royal Highness, Prince, the humble post found this brocade box in the small drawer of the Rong Concubine's bedroom."

Concubine Rong saw the brocade box, closed and opened her eyes, the water was moving, and her expression was sad.

This life is over...

Shen Zhiyan took it, opened it to get close and smelled it, and said with joy: "His Royal Highness, it's poppy pollen."

Murongci shouted: "Come here, take Concubine Rong into custody."

And Wei Wenchang, the ceremonial doctor, had already been taken into custody.

She didn't expect that Murong Yu made Concubine Rong's confession in a few words, and it was really prestigious.

...

Fan Xiaowen died, and Fan Jiahe, the scholar's residence, mourned and started a funeral.

Concubine Rong instructed her servant to use poppy pollen to cause Fan Xiaowen’s asthma attack, which led to his death.

When the Rongguo government learned of this, it became a mess.

The Rong family is one of the four great families in the Northern Yan Kingdom. The status of the Rong concubine in the harem, honor and disgrace are a bargaining chip for the Rong family's status in the court. If she is sentenced to death, then the reputation of the Rong family will be impacted and its status in the DPRK will no longer be the same. Therefore, Rong Guo Gong was so anxious. It is impossible for him to watch his sister Rongfei be executed, it is impossible for him to do nothing.

In the same day and night, he went to the imperial palace to see the imperial king.

However, the guard at the gate prevented him from entering, saying that the king was not in the house.

Rong Guo Gong asked if the royal king was in the palace, but when he was guarding, he only said that he didn't know. So, Lord Rongguo went back angrily.

Overnight, Concubine Rong’s murder of Fan Xiaowen during the literary examination of her husband spread throughout the aristocracy of the Northern Yan Kingdom. Many people talked about the incident. There were some who fell into trouble, some were mocking and disdainful, and they were sighing and sighing. Yes.

In the early morning of the next morning, the matter spread rapidly like a plague, and all the people in the market were discussing the matter.

However, the first martial arts test proceeded as scheduled.
