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

Chapter 474 The Change of Elbow and Armpit (3)
Gu Manqin made an appointment with her, and when she saw the emperor coming in the direction of Tonghua Palace, she asked her to go in to find her, so it was to seize this opportunity.Ten percent of the emperor has already heard the content of the song, otherwise it is impossible to come to Tonghua Palace at this hour, how could he tolerate his woman being unfaithful to him, and she is the one he has always held in his palm !Not to mention the loss of face, I'm afraid it will completely hurt the emperor's heart.

In the end, the Empress Dowager was still afraid that something would happen to Guiren Qin, and she would not be able to make amends after offending Sacred Heart, so she sent Nanny Zhou to visit Guiren Qin.Although the emperor ordered Qin Guiren to ground his feet, but the queen mother sent someone to visit, that's a different matter.

Seeing that it was Nanny Zhou, Mrs. Qin did not hide anything, so she told Nanny Zhou all the news she had received, and begged her to let the Queen Mother investigate the matter.

Nanny Zhou couldn't believe it when she heard it. This matter was not trivial, and it was related to the blood of the emperor's heir and the lives of the whole family of the He family, so she hurriedly went back and reported it to the Queen Mother.

Although the queen mother was shocked when she heard this, it is not difficult to verify such a thing. He Guipin has been pregnant for five or six months, and her body is already very obvious. If she has no children, the stuff on her stomach will be evidence .

In addition to being furious, the Empress Dowager acted like a thunderbolt, while asking people to ask for the emperor's kung fu, at the same time, people escorted Concubine He Gui to Shou'an Palace.Without even calling for an imperial doctor, she directly took out the cotton pillow tied to her stomach.

Concubine He Gui begged the emperor hard and took all the charges. Anyway, Xiao Jun never implicated the concubine because of the events of the previous dynasty, and never easily affected the family because of the concubine's mistakes. Although Concubine He Gui's father was demoted, But after all, it didn't hurt the lives of the people.

The matter was handled very quickly, Concubine He Gui was quietly carried out of the palace with a cup of poisoned wine, and nobleman Qin was also sealed as Jieyu because of her meritorious service in exposing her.The emperor did not revoke her previous order to be grounded because of this, but still made her ground her feet to think about her mistakes. Merits and demerits cannot be offset.Qin Guiren also made a big fuss in his own palace because he failed to restore his concubine's status.

The matter of Concubine He Gui caused an uproar in the palace, but no one mentioned it again within a few days.Firstly, the empress expressly prohibited it, and secondly, such a thing is not a good thing after all, everyone is dead, and no one wants to say more to avoid causing trouble.

When Qingchen met Lu Jing in the Imperial Garden, he saw that he was still handsome, but his face was much thinner and haggard, and his eyes were a little absent-minded.

"Lord Lu." Seeing him leading people ignoring him from in front of her, Qingchen turned around and stopped him.

Lu Jing turned around, ordered the group of people behind him to continue patrolling, and then slowly walked towards her. When he was two steps away from her, he suddenly drew out his sword and pressed it against her chest, "Say, is it the news you released? ? Otherwise, Qin Guiren is grounding her feet, how does she know?"

Yun Lan's expression changed when he was bluffed by this move, and she hurriedly said: "Master Lu, don't wrong my mother, she is recuperating at home these days, and she hasn't gone out for half a step."

Lu Jing snorted coldly and said, "It's just a message, anyone can do it, why does she have to do it herself?"

Qingchen didn't move, just looked at Lu Jing coldly and asked: "The little maid who committed crimes in Concubine He Gui's palace, you took someone out personally, right? Who do you think she belongs to?"

Lu Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know, that little maid didn't confess until she died."

Qingchen said expressionlessly: "Master Lu, if I were you, I might suspect that the little palace lady leaked the news, and she took the risk of putting that great abortion thing in Concubine He Gui's diet more than once, But there has been no movement, do you think she can not be suspicious? If she becomes suspicious and then tells her master behind the scene, if it is you, the matter is very important, will you try to check it?"

The sword in Lu Jing's hand gradually slackened, and finally he lowered his hand powerlessly. Qingchen looked at him quietly, knowing that he would definitely become suspicious. , will definitely keep the secret for her, Lu Jing is not stupid.

Qing Chen asked again: "Didn't it be agreed that Concubine He Gui would not want that child again? Why did he refuse to do it?"

Lu Jing frowned and replied: "After all, she is grounded, and the month is too old. It is not easy to prepare those things. If you want to avoid suspicion, you must at least have a formed fetus. This..."

"It's not easy to find, so it's delayed, isn't it?" The baby is six months old, and there will be a placenta fetus if it falls, so it's really not easy to find this.

Qingchen sighed softly: "Lord Lu, you don't have to feel guilty. Thinking about the nobleman Qin back then, no, now it's Qin Jieyu. Back then she almost killed me to prevent me from becoming a concubine. Now she is stepping on congratulatory Your concubine's blood has a chance to stand up, even if you let her go, I will not be soft. Now that she is deposed and imprisoned, there are not many people serving her besides her personal girl, and I want to deal with it She's so easy."

Lu Jing put his sword back into its sheath, turned around and left without saying anything, Yun Lan hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Qingchen pursed her lips coldly, "It's nothing, he's just suspicious."

Yun Lan asked worriedly, "Ma'am, what do you think Lu Jing will do next?"

Qingchen looked at his receding back, squinted his eyes, and said with infinite regret: "He is a person who values ​​love and righteousness, what a pity."

Although the answer was not what she asked, Yun Lan immediately understood the meaning of her words, and turned her head to look at the direction where Lu Jing was leaving, and sighed softly...

Back in his own palace, Qingchen stayed in the room quietly, lost in thought, for a full two hours, without calling anyone to come in to serve him.Yun Lan knew that she felt a little uncomfortable about He Guibin's death, but some things had to be figured out by herself. Others' persuasion was only temporary, and only when she really let go, could she live in this dead body. On the road of competing for favor in the world, a road of glory is blazed.

That night, Qingchen rested very late but slept soundly. Early the next morning, Jin Xin ran back from the outside and said anxiously: "Mother, something serious happened. The palace committed suicide by cutting her wrists, but the strange thing is that the little girl guarding her didn't hear any movement, saying that Qin Jieyu was still well before going to bed last night, and specially ordered to prepare lotus leaf and lotus seed soup tomorrow morning, but the result I don't know why in the middle of the night, I suddenly lost my mind and did something stupid. The queen mother was very angry, saying that the girl didn't care about serving the master, so she was directly killed by the stick."

Qingchen was still a little shocked when he heard it, he didn't expect that Lu Jing's hands and feet were so fast and he did things so without leaving any traces.There were not many people in the huge palace, and the slaves who were punished by the master were also slack in their errands. All they needed was a little incense, and the scene could be arranged into a scene of suicide without anyone noticing.

He is the leader of the guards, and he knows best when the guards change over. He doesn't need to enter through the palace gate, as long as he avoids people to climb over the wall and enter Qin Jieyu's bedroom, he can do things without anyone noticing.
