Chapter 1655:

In this way, the queen must bow to the emperor.
It's just that it will chill the queen's heart.
On the next day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ruoyin called the eldest brother, the second elder brother, and the fifth elder brother to come to Yongshou Palace at noon.
She took Ai'er and three elder brothers to eat the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner.
Originally, she wanted to eat together at night so that she could enjoy the moon.
But there is a palace banquet at night, and princes and nobles will go.
The eldest elder brother and the second elder brother have titles, so naturally they are going to go.
Brother Wu and Ai'er are still young, so they can go out or not.
If Ruoyin said early in the morning, she would not attend this banquet.
Anyway, the emperor didn't say anything, she could attend the palace banquet if she wanted to, and she could not go if she didn't want to.
Therefore, that night, Ruoyin took Wu Ge, Ai Er, and the minions of a yard, arranged a table of moon cakes and snacks in the pavilion in the backyard, and enjoyed the moon and drank tea here.
Ruoyin was holding Ai'er and drinking tea when Li Fukang suddenly came in from outside and said something in Banmei's ear.
Banmei gently touched Ruoyin's arm and gestured.
Ruoyin knows that something big is about to happen!
Because they would report directly on common small matters, otherwise they would also speak in front of Elder Brother and Ai Er.
Never been so mysterious to avoid suspicion.
So Ruoyin handed Ai'er to Rushuang who was aside, and then said to Elder Wu, "Elder Wu, the wind is a bit strong at night, you and Ai'er go back to the side hall and sit for a while."
"Yes." Looking at Ruoyin's serious look, Brother Wu went to the side hall with Ai'er.
After Wu Ge and Ai'er left, Ruoyin screened away some unrelated minions, leaving only a few trusted minions.
"Let's talk, what's the matter." Ruoyin took a sip of tea gently.
Banmei whispered: "Niang Niang, there has been movement over Ying Bi."
"Yingbi?" Ruoyin's eyes lighted slightly.
Only then did I remember that many years ago, since Ying Bi was elected to the palace from Xiu Nui, she ordered her eyeliner to stare at Ying Bi's every move.
And, let Banmei pay more attention to the minions in the yard, and don't be bought off.
It's just that this Ying 嫔 seems to be calm.
In the blink of an eye, it has been five years since Li Yingbing entered the palace, and she hasn't taken any action yet.
She almost thought that Ying Bie really just wanted to raise the third elder brother, and she had no other intentions.
Ruoyin held her lips and asked, "What happened to her?"
"She wants to buy the minions in our hospital, and wants them to bring the tableware used by the patients who passed the corpse to you for use." Speaking of this, Banmei was afraid.
Hearing this, Ruoyin's eyes suddenly tightened.
The corpse here is the so-called tuberculosis.
In the Qing Dynasty, where medical treatment is lagging behind, once he suffers from a corpse, he will definitely die.
The way of transmission of this disease is the droplets produced when the patient coughs, spits, and talks.
Then, the patient's droplets come into contact with the air.
In this way, if you are in the same space as the patient.
The bacteria in the air will float to a wider range.
And Ying Bi actually ordered someone to bring the tableware used by the patient to her.
This Ying 嫔 obviously wants her life!
"How did you find out?" Ruoyin asked.
"If you return to Niang Niang, long ago, you let our eyeliner pay more attention to Ying Bing. When you hit you this time, our people found that Ying Bing was about to move, and ordered the minions around him to have a good relationship with the minions in our palace. ."
"As early as when she was doing this, our people were in sight, until she bought a first-class maid in our palace, and when the servant had not captured the maid, the maid took the initiative to find Li Fukang and took the conspiracy of Ying Lai. All told Li Fukang."
Ruoyin put the cup on the table, "Bring that palace lady."
"Yes!"
In a short while, Li Fukang brought the second-class maid up.
People like Banmei are the celebrities next to Ruoyin, and they belong to the first-class personal court ladies.
Ruxia is a close-fitting female guard.
First-class maids are slaves from the seventh rank, who usually do some light work such as serving tea and pouring water.
Ruoyin glanced at the palace lady and said lightly: "Tell me the details of the matter."
The court lady was originally on Ruoyin's side, so she voluntarily confessed Ying Lai's affairs.
Now Ruoyin asked, naturally: "A month ago, when you just returned to the palace, the close-knit maids next to Ying Bi often dealt with me. After getting acquainted, she secretly poked. It shows that Xi often died unusually back then."
"It is said that the lady of Yingbi suspected that you killed Xi and Yingbi wanted your life. She also said that as long as I am willing to help her and give you the supplies of patients suffering from the disease, you will die. After success, she will give me one thousand taels of silver and transfer me to enjoy the blessing outside the palace."
"After hearing this, the minion definitely didn't want to help her, but the minion already knew their secrets. If he refused on the spot, worried about being killed by them, he had to agree to them first and accept the utensils that could infect the corpse. , Also received their advance payment."
"So, as soon as the minion came back, he told Grandpa Li about this, and I hope you can beware of Yingbing as soon as possible."
Hearing these words, Ruoyin looked at the palace lady and asked sharply: "Why did you choose to tell this palace the first time instead of betraying it?"
The maid said very obediently, "Because you have treated our minions very well over the years. If the minions betray you for money, wouldn't they have become a white-eyed wolf with an elbow turned away."
Then, she said a more realistic reason, "Manny, let me tell you, the minion knows, no matter whether I help Yingbi, I know her, she will kill me. If I don't Help her, maybe she will send someone to kill me right away."
"Even if I help her, she will have to kill her after the matter is done. Then, even if I take the money, it will not be spent. Therefore, the slave begs the queen empress to be the master of the slave. The slave wants to serve you. The slave does not want to die. "
The palace lady said the most realistic reasons. If the sound feels reasonable, the palace lady knows which is more important.
Ruo Yin: "No matter what your starting point is, as long as you are loyal enough to do good for your house and do good things for your house, your house will naturally save your life and will not treat you badly."
"It's just that you pay attention to evidence in everything. The eyeliner of this palace knows that Ying Bing has bought you. You are also a sincere man. You voluntarily confessed to Ying Bing, but outsiders don't know this. Now there is evidence, and there is no physical evidence alone."
Maid: "The material evidence is the tableware. The minion has been handed over to Grandpa Li."
"Niang, everything is here." Li Fukang carried a baggage and opened it, which was full of porcelain tableware.
Ruo Yin approached the porcelain and said to the court lady: "Okay, there are evidences and evidence. Now follow me to the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and announce the true face of Ying Lai to the public."
