Chapter 55: The mastermind behind the scenes has quite a lot of background.
"This was a very ordinary visit to relatives. I brought back a lot of gifts. I asked my mother and my mother how they were doing, met with each sister, and looked at my old wing. If I hadn't been on a whim, I went to the back garden to enjoy the flowers. If I hadn’t met Liu Jinli by chance, that would be it.”
"Liu Jinli?" Chu Lu frowned. He didn't see this name in the genealogy, so he thought he might have married outside. He randomly recruited someone and told her to find those servants of the Liu family for interrogation, and then said to the queen: "You continue. So is this Liu Jinli the one who is guiding you behind your back?"
"Yes." The queen nodded and said, "At first she just came to say hello to me, with a silly-looking maid behind her. She looked admiring and asked me about things in the palace, but then she started talking Some earth-shattering remarks..."
In the filthy prison, the queen described the scene of the two talking in the garden that afternoon.
Liu Jinli: "Sister, are you happy in the palace?"
Queen: "Having no worries about food and clothing, and having a noble status, you will naturally be happy."
Liu Jinli: "I heard that the emperor has many concubines, sister, won't you be unwilling to do so?"
Queen: "Emperors in all dynasties have had three palaces and six courtyards. This is the custom, so why should we be unwilling to do so?"
Liu Jinli: "But it has always been like this, is it right?"
Queen: "Huh?"
Liu Jinli: "Sister, don't blame me for being whimsical, but I have felt strange since I was a child. We are all women, and we are all born with the same look. How can we distinguish between high and low? Why can some people only stay at home to care for their husbands and raise children, while others People can show their faces outside? Why can some people have a wide harem, while others can only become one?"
Liu Jinli: "Everyone is born equal. There is nothing we can't do. I think this is right."
Queen: "Your remarks are novel and interesting, but just think about it in your own mind. Don't say it out loud, as it may make others laugh."
Liu Jinli: "Sister, do you really think this statement is ridiculous? Sister, haven't you ever thought in your heart for a moment about the difference between Xu Liniang and yourself? How can I be inferior to her? Why is she the emperor, but I can only A queen? Am I really not allowed to sit on this throne? "
Queen: "Shut up! You are really getting dizzy the more you talk! Is this what you can say?"
Liu Jinli: "If sister really has no thoughts at all, then I will slap myself, but if there is even the slightest bit of unwillingness... sister may be able to help her."
Queen: "...really?"
Liu Jinli: "It's absolutely true."
Queen: "How can you help?"
Liu Jinli: "First we have to depose the emperor. With the support of the Liu family, Queen, you can easily succeed as long as you use a little trick."
Liu Jinli described in detail how she used a dustpan to slander Concubine Ping and lured Xu Liniang to doom, and then used Shang Fang's sword to humiliate Xu Liniang. She also described how she further humiliated and poisoned Xu Liniang, forcing her to become weak, and then seizing the opportunity to seize political power and install forces. Wait for the plan.
Queen: "Where did you learn this?"
Liu Jinli: "I am born to understand."
Queen: "But... even if it can succeed, this kind of thing is no different from treason and will inevitably attract the opposition of countless people."
Liu Jinli: "It doesn't matter, relying on the power of the Liu family we can suppress most people. The rest are just those relatives of the emperor. If the vassal king leads troops to attack Qingjun, then sister, you lied to them that it was a rumor that they were rebelling, and you even said that they wanted to take advantage of it. If they rebel, they will naturally retreat. As for the rest... leave it to me. "
Queen: "You? How do you do it?" Liu Jinli: "Not long after, I will marry the Crown Prince of Qin."
Queen: "Ah? The King of Qin is the late emperor's biological sister and has a distinguished status. Although our Liu family is also a famous family, you are just a commoner. How can you marry her?"
Liu Jinli: "Simple. In the future, it will be my mother's birthday, and Prince Qin will come to attend. I have arranged the manpower to lead her to the river when the time comes, and order people to push her down. I will jump in and save her. Come up, when the time comes, I will be seen naked, my reputation will be lost, and I have saved her life, she will definitely marry me!"
Queen: "There is such a method...but the prince of Qin already has a wife, so you can only be a concubine."
Liu Jinli: "It's a trivial matter. I just need to serve her hard first and let her fall into a gentle land. At the same time, she will give birth medicine in the main room to ensure that I can conceive an heir as early as possible. After my status rises, I can seduce her again." Guard, let her be willing to sacrifice for me, put a belt in the main wife's room, and then find someone else to slander the main wife and the guard for having an affair, and then we can get rid of them!"
Liu Jinli: "If I take advantage of the opportunity to come in and comfort the prince's broken heart, I will naturally be promoted to the principal wife, and then I can deal with the old prince's old woman. The entire Qin Prince's Palace is in my bag!"
Liu Jinli: "When the time comes, we sisters will cooperate internally and externally, and this huge Dayan Dynasty will be ours!"
Queen: "This, this..."
Liu Jinli: "Sister, I've had my heart and soul with you today. Just tell my sister whether you agree or not!"
Queen: "...Okay!"
The memory ended here, and the queen's eyes gradually retracted, looking at the surrounding environment with a hint of sadness.
"That's how it is," said the queen.
Chu Lu frowned, feeling strongly uneasy.
The concubine named Liu Jinli, her words, deeds and actions gave Chu Lu a familiar feeling, just like...
——How strange. This guy named Liu Jinli... It's almost like he has traveled through time. Moreover, she is a senior time travel girl who has read a lot of girl video books and is proficient in various girl video routines. Promoting equality for all, losing one's integrity while getting wet, and fighting in the womb, aren't these all classic plots?
Chu Lu stood up and said, "Queen, please have a good rest here."
Then he left and said to the men beside him: "Have you finished interrogating the Liu family?"
"I haven't replied to His Majesty yet."
"After the interrogation, compile it into a document and send it to the study."
"yes."
Half an hour later, in the study room of Yangxin Hall, Chu Lu got the confession that had just been handed over.
After reading it, I found that the queen did not lie.
It is true that there was a concubine named Liu Jinli, and it was true that she was taken in as a concubine because she saved the prince's son from drowning on her birthday.
This confession eliminated Chu Lu's last chance.
"It seems we must meet this Liu Jinli." Chu Lu looked serious. He called Su Muyun and said, "Go and let King Qin's family enter the palace."
