Chapter 320 Interrogation
After all, Qu Meiren did not die in a car crash, but was diverted to the court. The Empress' case finally entered the formal trial process. Qu Meiren and Concubine Yuan secretly planned to murder the Empress. Sit down during the trial.

Above the main hall of the court, Qu Zidie kept yelling that he was wronged, saying that he was ordered by the queen mother.

But many investigations failed to find the empress dowager. In the end, she just killed a few nuns and eunuchs on duty in Ci'an Palace. The empress dowager didn't even show up. Things are even less impressive.

"It's really not a concubine, it's not a concubine..." In the main hall, Zhao Zongheng sat on a high seat, with Si Ningchi sitting next to him, and there were a group of important military officials such as the imperial censor, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, and so on. Sitting on one side were the Holy King, Princess Chaoyang, and the son-in-law Qin Huai.

Qu Meiren knelt on the ground in a trance, looking up at the emperor sitting high, her heart full of bitterness and confusion.

Qin Huai stood up and presented many confessions obtained from the interrogation of the concubines in various palaces. Most of the concubines didn't know what to ask.

Concubine De knelt aside to wipe away her tears, and said with a panicked look: "Your Majesty, Empress! I really don't know that monk is actually a demon monk!"

"It was all chatting with Concubine Yuan that day, what kind of talisman Concubine Yuan talked about..." Concubine De was really suffering, and everyone in the palace knew that Concubine Yuan was deeply troubled by Concubine Rong's death and almost died in a sea of ​​flames. Say, still can't sleep at night.

Concubine De and Concubine Yuan were not close, but she met Concubine Yuan by accident one day, and seeing her looking so good, she was surprised and asked a few words.

I learned of the existence of the 'Amulet' from Concubine Yuan. She said it was a gift from a wandering monk, but she didn't say what the name of the wandering monk was. She said that people who have a relationship with the Buddha will meet them.

Then by such a blunder, when Concubine De sent someone out of the palace to invite the Buddha statue into the palace, she met such a wandering monk. Concubine De was overjoyed, thinking that she was a destined person. Come and go.

No one thought that it was a coincidence, not long after, the queen mother suddenly had a nightmare, and the palace was calling for a magic ceremony. Originally, the concubine De didn't quite agree, but didn't the queen nod her head later?

Only then did Concubine De confess that she had met an eminent monk, who knew...

Concubine De told all these things in detail, but now that Concubine Yuan died in the prison, it seemed that there was no proof, Concubine De was really scared.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress!" Concubine De cried and looked at Si Ningchi and said, "This concubine has absolutely no intention of harming you! I beg you to learn from me!"

"Bring someone up." Si Ningchi didn't look at Concubine De, but gave orders in an unhurried manner. Shen Ting at his side knew it well, bowed his head and took a step forward to call for someone. The dead palace lady was almost bloody, hanging on her breath.

"Your Majesty, this person is a confidant maid serving by Concubine Yuan's side." Si Ningchi seemed not to have seen the misery of the court lady, and said in a neutral tone: "Everyone, listen to what she has to say."

"..."

The faces of all the people present twitched slightly, and some of them really didn't dare to look at the maid's appearance carefully, and they couldn't be called human anymore.
