The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1078 Break (4)
"My concubine, thank the emperor for trusting..." Qingchen followed the strength in his hand and stood up. The hard wall of heart that was built with great difficulty was because of his soothing smile and a word of trust that made her feel at ease. But it collapsed in an instant, tears came out of her eyes, she choked up sobbing, it turned out that in this world, in times of crisis, the only person she can rely on is the emperor.

Seeing the tenderness on the emperor's face, Concubine Xian was so angry that she almost fell to the ground when it was dark. Fortunately, Jing Shu supported her with quick eyes and hands.She really didn't expect that the lives of her and Heng'er were not worth the status of a royal concubine in the heart of the emperor.

He can trust her unconditionally, even if she really did this, as long as she says no, the emperor will believe it.

Even if he doesn't love him, but what about Heng'er, he is a dignified prince, so isn't it worth the importance of a woman in the emperor's heart?
Why, just because she is Wanyi?Concubine Xian gritted her silver teeth with jealousy, and did not feel pain when her nails were deeply pinched into her palms. No amount of tears could quench the flame of jealousy in her heart. Perhaps for women, the greatest torture in the world did not come from The pain in the body, but the unwilling torture in the heart.

In Concubine Xian's view, Wanyi was born to rob her of happiness. With her around, she is destined to be a sad shadow in this life. Where there is imperial concubine, the emperor will never see her existence. The same goes for her children.

At this moment, Concubine Xian has been burned out of reason by jealousy, and has completely forgotten what she looks like right now. The red rash on her face is already a little creepy, and her stiff and distorted expression makes it even more terrifying. People can't bear to look directly.

Xiao Jun is a very considerate emperor, but seeing Concubine Xian's appearance, she couldn't help turning her face away, and said in a gentle voice: "Hanyu, get up too, what's the matter, wait until you take the medicine to understand." .”

Jingshu brought water, and seeing the look on Concubine Xian's face, she couldn't help but shuddered. Her cheeks were already swollen, and the rashes formed one after another, which was horrible. She was even afraid of her Will the master be disfigured by this?

Concubine Xian went down to take medicine, Gu Yunfeng checked the cakes, and went forward to report: "Your Majesty, there is no thyme poison found in the cakes used by Concubine Xian and the third prince..."

At this time, Imperial Physician Sun was also there, and even if Gu Yunfeng wanted to help Qingchen, he would not dare to lie casually. The emperor asked Zizhu in displeasure: "Apart from this cake, what else have the Third Prince and Concubine Xian eaten?"

The nanny was not poisoned, so it can be seen that there is no problem with the milk, so there must be something wrong with the food the third prince ate, Zizhu hurriedly replied: "Your majesty, slaves dare not lie, these two nanny and sister Jingshu can testify, the third prince is here today. I only ate the cakes fed by the imperial concubine this afternoon, and I didn't eat anything else."

The remaining cakes were non-toxic, and Heng'er hadn't eaten anything else, so the only possibility was that there was something wrong with the cakes when they were delivered to Heng'er's mouth, so Qingchen was the only person who might have the chance to poison.

And Qingchen also clearly remembered that Ye Hanyu wanted to pick up the leftover piece of cake that Heng'er ate, but he refused to eat it, so Concubine Xian ate it by herself.Could it be that in this plate of pastries, only that piece of pastry has a problem, and she happened to get it?
She was so suspicious in her heart, but the things are gone, and she can no longer verify her thoughts. More importantly, Zizhu and Jingshu are the most trustworthy girls around Xianfei, and they should not do this unless It was instructed by Concubine Xian herself.Thinking about it this way made me even more uncomfortable.

I don't want to accept such an unbearable fact, and I can't believe that this is Ye Hanyu's method, but people will inevitably have doubts in the face of incomprehensible facts, and once there is a rift of suspicion, no matter what others do, it will appear that they have ulterior motives.

Seeing the anger on the emperor's face, Qingchen hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, although the testimonies of the girls are not good for the concubine, the concubine has never done it. This thyme is only available in the concubine and the ancestor's palace, but in Before sending it to the concubine's palace, many people in the flower room had contact with it. As long as they secretly picked a few leaves, even if they wanted to put blame on them, the concubine would not be able to tell. Besides, the concubine was not the only one who moved this plate of cakes. But, the people in Sister Ye's small kitchen, aren't there any suspicions?"

"That's right, everyone who has come into contact with Thyme is suspected." The emperor turned to ask Sun Dexin, "How is the third prince?"

Sun Dexin had just taken Heng'er's pulse, and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the pulse of the third prince is stable, and there is no serious problem. Take another antidote before dawn and you will be fine."

"That's good. You and Gu Yunfeng will stay here tonight. Make sure that the concubine Xian and the third prince don't suffer a little less, and I will answer in the imperial study room in the morning." The emperor got up with a serious face, and ordered in an unquestionable tone: " All the servants in the flower house who have been in contact with Thyme will be executed, and all the servants in the Concubine Xian's small kitchen will be executed. This matter will stop here. No one is allowed to talk nonsense about what happened tonight. I will never forgive the noble concubine's reputation lightly!"

The emperor shook his sleeves heavily, turned around and walked out. Concubine Xian wanted to intercede for the slaves in her palace, but she heard the emperor coldly say: "Unreliable slaves will only cause trouble if they stay around. I will let the Ministry of Internal Affairs pick someone to bring it over again, since Concubine Xian is not feeling well, she should stay in the palace to recuperate for a few days."

"Your Majesty, it's not fair for you to do this..." Ye Hanyu just wanted to chase her out, but Jing Shu grabbed her sleeves and shook her head lightly at her, signaling her not to make the Emperor unhappy anymore.

When Qingchen passed by Ye Hanyu, he really wanted to say to Concubine Xian, "Let's do it for yourself", but he didn't want to speak ill of her, so he just stopped for a moment and took a deep look at her, then left with heavy steps without saying anything .

And at the moment in Qionghua Palace, Wei Hong, who is serving by Mrs. Wei, is still kneeling in the corridor for punishment. Wei Ronghua has no knowledge of what happened in Hanqing Palace, just because this girl who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth is here in the daytime. The palace clamored recklessly and slapped her mouth to make her kneel.If it was in the past, it would be fine for Wei Hong to be so flamboyant, but now they have no right to care about anything, it is good enough to have a place to live, this girl actually dares to go out and offend her, isn't it Push her to death, how can she not punish her?

At the same time, in Menghuang Pavilion, Concubine Ning was leisurely leaning against the window to enjoy the moon while holding the fragrant tea in her hand. When she heard the news from outside, Cai'e asked softly: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that girl Zizhu to do things like this." Clever, so that people can't catch the slightest clue, and it's not in vain for the empress to secretly cultivate her."
