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

Chapter 1197 Hidden Murder (4)
Xiao Jun's eyes were frighteningly cold, and he said with a livid face, "Of course they want to investigate, but the person they are targeting is not Heng'er but you, do you understand?"

Qingchen's eyes trembled slightly, he was speechless in shock, but he quickly understood what the emperor meant.

Concubine Ning fought with her for the throne back then, how fierce the fight was, everyone in the front court and the harem knew about it, so in the eyes of others, Heng'er was naturally the biggest threat to the crown prince, and as the mother queen, she cleared the crown prince's obstacles, It's perfectly normal.

Ever since she devolved her powers and made Concubine Jing the assistant of Liugong again, she has spent all her time taking care of these two children.So every day she would bring Jinghan to play in the imperial garden. It was because someone had figured out the pattern and wanted to use Heng'er's death to frame her.

If it wasn't for Jinghan's rebellion today, she had to argue to see the emperor, once she was led into that trap, she would really be unable to tell.

Not only the emperor was angry, Qing Chen was also furious at this moment, what a cruel way to use Heng'er's life to frame her as a queen!She didn't dare to think about who the designer was, because there were such ambitious and cruel concubines in the palace, she really couldn't think of who it would be.

But no matter who it is, that person must not be He Shurong, because she won't be so stupid that she can't get along with her at this time. Even if Jinghan hit Rong'er, their mother and son can't swallow that breath and want revenge, but as a mother, she will never so vicious.More importantly, Qingchen believed that He Shurong didn't have the guts to offend her, the lord of the first palace, and Concubine Ning at the same time.

So, who will it be?
Qingchen thought about going out, and then stepped out of the threshold of the inner room, and saw Concubine Ning walking over with red eyes, blocking her way, and said in a tone that wished she could swallow her rawly: "Empress Empress, everything is going well for you now. Why can't you just let Heng'er go? The child is innocent, and you are a mother too. If you use such vicious methods to deal with Heng'er, don't you fear retribution!"

Qingchen looked at Concubine Ning deeply, and said calmly but firmly: "I didn't do it. Believe it or not, I won't say this a second time."

Ignoring Concubine Ning's stern eyes, Qingchen brushed past her, and ordered in a cold voice: "Bring me a pen and paper, I want to find someone."

Immediately, the servant girl who was waiting on her promised to go down to prepare things, Ning Concubine followed and asked suspiciously: "Who are you looking for?"

Qingchen walked to the table, taking advantage of the opportunity that the maidservant hadn't come back, said to Concubine Ning: "I saw a sneaky little palace maid in the imperial garden today, she once appeared at the place where Heng'er was killed. place.

Concubine Ning, I hope you will calm down and don't be impulsive. If you and I start a dispute because of this matter, there will definitely be people secretly profiting from it. Are you such a stupid person?Ben Gong has always done things aboveboard, and has never affected the innocent. Although you and Ben Gong are incompatible, I also believe that you should at least understand Ben Gong's personality since you have known me for many years. "

Concubine Ning still looked at her with that cruel look, sneered coldly, and said: "People will always change, and I never trust anyone. This is why I have been able to stand tall in this harem for many years. The reason for not falling."

Cai'e put the pen and paper that Qingchen asked for on the table respectfully, and Qingchen picked up the brush to paint with a dignified expression, "You don't believe in me and you don't force me, but if you dare to touch Yixuan and Jinghan in my palace, I will Gong Jue can't spare you!"

Concubine Ning stood aside, her eyes seemed eager to turn into knives and cut the person in front of her into pieces.A long time ago, when she was a little nobleman, Concubine Ning had already felt that there was something unusual about her. It was the biggest mistake in her life that she didn't kill the weeds at that time.Concubine Ning believed that the queen must have thought the same way before she died.

Gritting her teeth, she said in a hoarse voice with hatred: "Empress Empress, I never promise anything to others. If there is any mistake in my Heng'er, which makes me hopeless in this life, then I will definitely hold on to it." The person I hate the most will take the back!"

Qingchen curled his lips coldly, ignoring Concubine Ning's ruthlessness, handed the portrait in her hand to Concubine Cai'e and said, "Give it to Concubine Jing, let her find this man for me even if she digs three feet into the ground." come out!"

Indifferently bypassing Concubine Ning, leaving her standing there alone with grief and indignation, Qingchen entered the inner room of Xinuang Pavilion, saw that Heng'er's wound had been bandaged, and asked Imperial Physician Sun: "How is Heng'er's injury?" ? Are you in danger of life?"

Imperial Physician Sun said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Third Highness is seriously injured. Even if he can wake up, it will take a long time to recover."

"Do your best to treat Wei Ronghua. Wei Ronghua repented in the Buddhist hall. If there are gods who see her sincerity, they will definitely bless Heng'er." Qingchen turned to Xiao Jun and said, "Your Majesty, it's better to keep a few for a few days. The imperial physician is here, let them take turns to take care of Heng'er?"

The emperor nodded, looked at the couch very reluctantly, and said solemnly: "I told them the same just now, I hope Heng'er can survive, otherwise when I catch the person who hurt him, I will definitely kill him of the Nine Clans."

Qingchen knew that the emperor was feeling uncomfortable. He was also born in the royal family, but Heng'er was more miserable than these princes. It was fine if he could not get the care of his biological mother, and he would be regarded as a power contender by someone who kept calling her mother. Tool, it is poor to think about it.

Unable to bear turning her head away, Qing Chen said to Xiao Jun: "Your Majesty, this concubine has already made a portrait for Concubine Jing to look for that little maid, but this concubine thinks that the one who injured Heng'er must be a man, otherwise I wouldn't have made such a heavy blow." Therefore, if you want to thoroughly investigate this matter, you have to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Department of Punishment to cooperate in the investigation, at least send someone to the scene to find clues."

Xiao Jun frowned and said softly: "On the way here, I have sent someone to pass the decree, let's talk about it after they investigate."

The two were talking when they saw Concubine Ning come in sobbing, and regardless of the fact that the Empress was still there, she threw herself on Heng'er's bed, hugged him and cried bitterly, "Heng'er, there must be nothing wrong with you. , if you have any good or bad, mother will not live anymore. It's all mother's fault. She didn't take good care of you and let people take advantage of the loopholes to harm you. It's all mother's death. As long as you are fine, mother would rather eat fast and chant Buddha to accumulate blessings for you in the future ..."

The emperor asked Xueyan who was kneeling beside him sobbing, "When the third prince had an accident, why was there no one around him? Where did the people who served him go?"

Xueyan raised her head and glanced at Qingchen in a panic, before murmuring for a long time: "It's not that the servants are not good enough to serve His Highness the Third Highness, it's because Qinxue, a maid beside the Empress, came to the Xuanjiao Hall and said that the Empress has something to ask for the Third Highness. The servants did not dare to disobey the empress's words, so they did not follow the Third Highness."

"Why is Qinxue involved again?" The emperor turned his head and asked, "Have you seen Heng'er today?"

Qingchen was surprised and hurriedly said: "No, this concubine has never asked anyone to find Heng'er, are you sure that the person who took away the Third Highness was Qinxue?"
