"Mother, is this strength okay?" Sanhua knelt on the footrest beside her, with a flattering smile on her face, and was carefully massaging Zhihua's feet.

As a foot-washing maid, this is her task, she is dedicated to washing the master's feet.

In the third trimester of pregnancy, a pregnant woman's body will gradually become swollen, and she can no longer see her feet with a big belly. If someone is waiting for you at this time, it will be much easier than if you are alone.

What's more, Zhihua is pregnant with twins, and her belly is a little bigger than that of ordinary pregnant women, so the bloating will come on faster.

Now that the weather is getting colder, although there are earthworms, pregnant women will feel much more comfortable if they massage their feet before going to bed.

"I heard that you were often bullied in this palace before? You were injured when you came here. Is it because of them?" Zhihua leaned against the bedrail with a thick cushion behind him. The whole room was very warm and unbearable. Can't help but feel sleepy.

Sanhua smiled sheepishly while pressing her feet, "I've always been timid and have an unpleasant temper, so I can't help but be annoying. However, I'm lucky to have met your empress, otherwise I'll have to be bullied again in the future. It’s been a while.”

Her tone was gentle and gentle, neither gentle nor slow, neither urgent nor slow, and you could hear a hint of gratitude.

"You seem to be a good person, so I will keep you here. I just hope that you will not disappoint my expectations. The water is cold and I have to rest. By the way, I want to change the incense today. You can go Change it."

Zhihua yawned, and Qingzhu stepped forward and carefully placed her on the bed. After covering the quilt thoughtfully, I was ready to go out.

Before going out, he glanced at Sanhua and said, "I'm going out to get something. You should have changed the incense earlier. Go out early and don't disturb the queen's rest."

"Okay." Sanhua nodded and quickly came to the incense burner.

With a "squeak", the door was closed. Qingzhu had already gone out and would not be back in a short time.

Turning her head to look over, she saw that the woman on the bed was lying on her side with her back to her, so she couldn't see what she was doing at this time. Such a trusting gesture, seemingly without any defense.

Sanhua looked at the incense burner, took out a pack of things from her pocket, pursed her lips and hesitated for a long time, and finally changed the incense.

The smoke drifted out from the incense burner. She raised her eyes and glanced at the person on the bed again. His back was still turned to her, and she didn't know what was happening in the room.

She sighed, crumpled the package into a ball, stuffed it into her arms, and turned to leave.

This incense will only burn for one night, and the smell is similar to the soothing incense, so no one will notice anything. After tonight, when someone comes to change it tomorrow, the source of the incense will not be found.

She was also forced to have no choice but no wonder. If you want to blame it, blame it on a powerless palace maid who dared to compete with the empress for her favor!

With a "squeak" sound, the door was closed.

Then there was another sound, and Qingzhu walked in from outside.

She first walked to the incense burner, opened the lid, and poured a cup of tea into it. With a "Zila" sound, everything in the incense burner was extinguished.

Pour out the contents and put them in an oil paper bag, so that the contents are preserved.

She walked to the bed and called softly, "Mother."

"Hel me up." Zhihua opened his eyes and struggled to get up.

Qingzhu stepped forward, placed the mat, and smoothed the quilt for her.

"Mom, there's something wrong with this fragrance."

"Ah."

She was a little surprised. This fragrance smelled different from the usual fragrance. How did the empress know?

"Empress, did you know through research that there is something wrong with this Sanhua?" "What else?" Zhihua curled his lips, raised his hand to signal the other party to bring a glass of water, took a sip to moisten his throat, and then said: "I I think the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs will also pick some defective products and bring them to me, right?"

The emperor had already told her that in order to please her new master, he would choose a few palace maids with better spirits to come over. Rather than among these outstanding palace maids, a unique person suddenly appeared.

The other party looked like she had been bullied miserably, wasn't it just to arouse her protective desire? After all, her external persona is that of a simple and kind-hearted palace maid who has never seen the world.

"Give everything to the queen. She will find out everything. I just need to wait."

In order to lower the other party's precautions in the past few days, she tried every means to leave opportunities for the other party, in order to let them reveal their flaws. I didn't expect this person to be stupid, so he just went in recklessly.

All of this went much smoother than she imagined.

But that's not the case. It's just that the other party underestimated her. If he were more cautious, he wouldn't have exposed so many flaws.

She thought the truth would come out soon.

The queen has more power than any woman in the palace. If she wants to investigate anything, she can just leave it to her servants to handle. Just need to wait for some time, and the answer will almost come out.

But the moment the truth came out, she looked at the note in her hand and spit out a mouthful of blood.

For a moment, everyone in Fengwu Palace was panicked.

The doctors from the Imperial Hospital rushed inside, fearing that something might happen to the Queen. If the Emperor punished her, they might not be able to save their heads.

In Chengqian Palace, Zhihua dropped the spoon in his hand after learning the news.

"What? The queen vomited blood?"

Qingzhu nodded, "After lunch today, many imperial doctors came into Fengwu Palace. There was a bit of a commotion, but outsiders only knew that the queen was sick, but they didn't know that she vomited blood."

"How...why is she vomiting blood? When I went to visit a few days ago, she was fine. She is so good, how could she vomit blood?" Zhihua was confused for a moment, and his eyes seemed to have no focus. He looked around, not knowing what he was looking for.

"No, I have to go check on the situation."

As she said that, she stood up from the stool, holding her stomach and trying to walk out.

But was stopped.

Qingzhu frowned and shook his head in disapproval, "Your Majesty, I don't know what is going on in Fengwu Palace now. No one in the palace can receive you. Besides, you are pregnant now. If someone collides with you, the little prince will what to do?"

"But the queen..."

"The Queen is being watched by the doctors from the Imperial Hospital, so nothing will happen. If there is no news now, that means there is no bad news. Now just wait in the palace and wait for the news to come from the Queen."

This is the truth. If there are too many people, it will be easy to cause chaos.

Zhihua pursed his lips and sat back in silence, looking at the snacks on the table, which were sent by people from the small kitchen of Fengwu Palace.

"Qingzhu, please be quiet and lock up Sanhua and Liu'er."

It's time to close the net. (End of chapter)
