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

Chapter 671 A Bowl of Abortion Tea (9)
Concubine Li curled her lips coldly, and looked at the empress as if she was at home, "So the empress summoned the concubine to let the concubine die?"

Seeing that her tone softened a bit, the queen turned around and sat on the phoenix chair, took the tea that Zheyue handed over, took two sips to calm her down, and then asked Concubine Li who was kneeling on the ground, "Say, did you instigate it?" The person who gave Lin Guiyi put abortion pills in the cup of tea?"

Concubine Li's expression was slightly startled, and then she asked in amazement: "Isn't the empress treating the concubine like this because she suspects that the concubine ordered someone to harm the child in Lin Guiyi's womb?"

"Otherwise?" The queen stared at Concubine Li fiercely, and analyzed in a very distrustful tone: "Everyone thought that the cup of tea was in the hands of Concubine Chen, and that she wanted to harm Lin Guiyi's child, but this However, Gong thought that sometimes the more seemingly logical things were, the more hidden things were. Concubine Chen is such a smart person, who is she trying to harm, will people be caught so easily? Even if it is not her What she did will cause suspicion, not to mention that there are so many people in the imperial garden, she chose to do it in that place, unless her brain is broken!"

Concubine Li had a sneering smile on her lips, and asked back: "So, the empress thinks that I did it. I have never gotten along with Concubine Chen, and it is only natural that I hurt her. If she can't be harmed, then get rid of Lin Guiyi's womb." My child is not harmful to me, so the empress can support the child in my womb, is this how the empress views my concubines?"

The queen said sharply: "You are dreaming! If anything happens to the child in Lin Guiyi's womb, I will let you mother and child be buried with you!"

Concubine Li had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, feeling a little uncomfortable, so she changed into a more comfortable position and said, "Empress Empress, no matter how bad this concubine is, I won't be confused about this matter. Thank you very much! After Wanyi's status as a guilty minister, it is already a great gift from the emperor to allow his concubine to give birth to this child. The concubine dare not have delusional thoughts. The position of crown prince is so honorable, how can the ministers in the court allow it? A child born to a criminal minister's daughter will be my heir apparent? They won't agree, and neither will the emperor, let alone the queen mother and you. How can the concubine be alone, how can she compete with so many people? Aren't you looking for death? The concubine wants to give birth to this child, but she just hopes that the concubine can have someone to rely on in the future. If Lin Guiyi's child is really lucky enough to be the heir apparent, then the concubine's child can also try her best to help her. Our mother and son only want to take refuge with the empress to be safe, how dare we think about other things?"

The empress naturally saw Concubine Li's discomfort, and beating her was only because of Concubine Li's previous self-assertion and ambition. There was some truth in what he said, so he ordered: "It's good that you know, it's cold on the ground, you are pregnant and kneeling for a long time will inevitably feel uncomfortable, get up and answer."

"Yes, concubine, thank you, empress." Concubine Li supported Yinyu's hand, stood up with difficulty, sat down on a chair beside her, stroked her belly and took a few breaths, finally calmed down a little, just now With that agitation, she felt a little pain in her lower abdomen, and she was afraid that her fetus would move again, so she became extra careful at this moment.

The queen motioned Zheyue to serve her tea, and seeing that her complexion had improved, she asked again: "How about it, do you want to send the imperial doctor to take a look? I don't want your child to have any accidents, as long as you are willing to keep quiet." How can I not tolerate your mother and child?"

Concubine Li took a sip of tea, and the place where the corner of her mouth was broken by the queen now hurts when she speaks hotly, but she still has to insist on finishing the rest of the sentence, "It's okay for my concubine, but there are some things that need to be said." Talk to the Empress."

"Then you go ahead." The queen's tone was still somewhat displeased.

Concubine Li took a deep breath and said slowly: "If the Empress thinks that Concubine Chen is no longer suspected, then who in the harem is not suspicious? Concubine Ning has always been eyeing the phoenix chair of Empress Empress. She hopes that Lin Guiyi can be born. Will this child be born? The eldest son of the emperor has a special status. Even though Xiao Jieyu's status is not high, she is also from the family of a second-rank official in the imperial court. She has a noble status. Would she be willing to let Lin Guiyi's child steal Qi'er's limelight? Qin Wanrong, the Empress Dowager has always hoped to support a concubine to gain a firm foothold in the harem, so as to keep the Qin family rich and honored for a hundred years, and it's fine for her not to be favored. How could she be willing to watch the Empress Dowager and Lin Guiyi take away the power of the harem that should belong to the Lin family? Although the concubine's words are outspoken and disrespectful, the empress knows whether it is true or not? Also, Sang Guirong is also pregnant now. Even if it is for the future of her child, this matter does not necessarily have nothing to do with her , if the empress wants to investigate, where does she plan to start?"

The empress was silent for a long time after listening, holding her forehead seemed to feel a little bit tricky. Concubine Li's words were ugly and ugly, even though it was unsightly, but she said it plainly, and she always felt that she could live with it Who would have thought that it was only after she said the words clearly that she realized how dirty and rotten hearts were wrapped in the skins of these delicate beauties.

"Concubine Chen said that she didn't want tea, so the only plan for now is to find out who contacted Chunlan."

Concubine Li was not there at the time, and with her current situation, it took too much energy to keep the child, and she really didn't have the extra energy to help the queen investigate the matter.

"Empress, sorry for the concubine's help in this matter, and the concubine really has no clue at the moment."

The queen nodded and said: "I know, you have few contacts in the palace after all, and I didn't expect you to be of any help in this matter. Forget it, you can go back. I want to be alone. .”

Concubine Li was really feeling a little uncomfortable at the moment, she was anxious to go back to the imperial doctor Xuan, so she got up and said: "Empress, please take care, the concubine will leave first."

Coming out of Chengkun Palace, Concubine Li got into the soft sedan chair, touched the corner of her swollen mouth, gritted her teeth secretly, "Empress, you are so cruel, even if it doesn't do me any good, I will definitely report today." Revenge, just wait and see!"

When the news came that Lin Guiyi was fine, Xue Changzai almost dropped the teacup in his hand in surprise, and turned to ask Yunxin, "How could this happen? Drinking such a large amount of medicine, even a god would be hard-pressed to recover. Why is it okay?"

Yunxin thought for a while and said: "Maybe it's because she drank less and was treated in a timely manner. This Concubine Chen is really cunning, she didn't use that cup of tea. The servant girl clearly watched her eat a lot at the banquet. It was the most appropriate time to give her a cup of tea, but I didn't expect that she didn't drink it."
