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

Chapter 746 Where did the poison come from (6)
Now that he has done such a thing, even if he denies it for a while, he is still prepared to die, Qiaohui said sadly: "Madam, the beads on the tassels were given to slaves by Concubine Shu, Concubine Shu always rewards people. Dafang, it’s not that the empress is ignorant of this. The servant has received great favor from the concubine Shu. Although the servant does not understand the grievances between the masters of the harem, she must repay the favor. The servant wants to harm you, just for the sake of concubine Shu Your Majesty takes revenge, if your Majesty is lucky enough to be blessed by the gods, the servant will admit it, you should kill the servant, the servant will have nothing to say."

"Qiaohui, you are not telling the truth." Qingchen turned to look at the queen mother, respectfully said: "Queen mother, although Qiaohui has the determination to die, I believe that she is not just looking for concubine Shu for concubine Shu's sake." The hatred is so simple, because He Shuyi made this purse in his own palace, and the concubine knows He Shuyi's habit, she does her needlework in Dongnuan Pavilion, Qiaohui is just an embroidery lady, she can't Had the opportunity to enter He Shuyi's inner room, so someone must have seen He Shuyi's purse and told Qiaohui the pattern of the embroidered pattern, so she embroidered the same pattern, and the pearl on the purse , if the concubine's guess is correct, it must have been given to her by the person who instructed her."

The corners of Qiaohui's mouth twitched a few times, and she felt a little panicked. What Concubine Chen said, as if she saw it with her own eyes, made her a little flustered.

The queen mother nodded, and also felt that what Qingchen said made sense. Seeing this servant refused to tell the truth again and again, the queen mother was also a little annoyed and shouted: "Qiaohui, there are different ways to die, if you dare not tell me To tell you the truth, the Ai family will send you to the Punishment Department for interrogation, if you are confident that you can withstand the 72 sets of torture instruments there, you can continue to lie, the Ai family is not afraid that your bones are hard, but they are afraid that you will not be able to stand it!"

Qiaohui shivered all over, probably because she was afraid of the empress dowager's viciousness, she walked forward a few steps with tears in her eyes, kowtowed non-stop and said, "Queen mother, please spare this servant, this is all the fault of this servant, this servant I am willing to apologize with death, and I only ask the Queen Mother to give me a good time."

The queen mother was unmoved, for so many years in the deep palace, she was used to all kinds of thrilling methods among the concubines, for this kind of worthless abandoned son, the queen mother would not have the slightest sympathy at all, so she had no sympathy. Said emotionally: "As long as you tell the truth, the Ai family can reward you with pleasure."

Qiaohui bit her lip, bowed her head in silence, suddenly closed her eyes and slid down two lines of tears, her face was full of determination, Qingchen knew what she was going to do by looking at her, and it was too late to stop her Seeing that Qiaohui suddenly and quickly pulled out a hairpin from her head, it pierced her heart fiercely.

Qingchen rushed over in three or two steps, but it was already too late, Qiaohui slowly fell down with a bitter smile on her face, leaving Qingchen standing there stiffly, still holding the hand that was going to talk to her. The posture of grabbing things.

Qin Wanrong screamed and covered her face, she seemed to be quite frightened, the Empress Dowager's eyes jumped slightly, but her expression didn't fluctuate greatly, she just motioned to drag her down quickly.

Yunlan sighed heavily, feeling bad luck, hurried forward to help Qingchen aside, Qiaohui was dragged out, and Gu Yunfeng and Xiao Jieyu also came out of Dongnuan Pavilion.

Qingchen obviously saw that Xiao Jieyu's expression was much better than that of just now, and thought that maybe Qi'er was fine.

Sure enough, I heard Xiao Jieyu say to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Imperial Physician Gu is really good at medicine. Qier took the detoxifying pills given by Imperial Physician Gu, and she is already much better now. The wound has been smeared with a plaster that reduces swelling and detoxification, and the child does not feel pain. , has already eaten milk and fell asleep."

The Queen Mother smiled and told Nanny Wei, "I will reward Imperial Physician Gu very much later. Since Qi'er is fine, Xiao Jieyu should take Qi'er back first. Later, I will ask Imperial Physician Gu to take a look. Make sure Qi'er is safe."

Xiao Jieyu hurriedly blessed her body and said: "Yes, the concubine obeyed. The concubine lost her mind in the panic, so she had to come to ask the queen mother, and disturbed the queen mother's rest, and asked the queen mother to forgive her sin."

The empress dowager's attitude towards Xiao Jieyu was much gentler, although it was a reproachful tone, but she was not really blaming her, "What are you talking about, the emperor is not here, Qi'er has encountered such a thing, don't you? Should I come to find the imperial grandmother of the Ai family? You are lucky to have come here, otherwise Qier would have suffered more. You must have heard a thing or two about this outside matter just now in the warm pavilion. It's nothing to do with the concubine, it's just a coincidence that the eldest prince was hurt, so don't hurt your friendship with the concubine Chen."

Xiao Jieyu and Gu Yunfeng naturally heard what happened outside in the Nuan Pavilion. Hearing what the queen mother said, they came over to salute with some embarrassment: "My concubine wrongly blamed my mother, please don't be as knowledgeable as my concubine, my mother Even though I have been wronged, I still care about Qi'er's safety, my concubine is very grateful, thank you for your kindness."

Qingchen hurriedly helped her, and said gently: "I am also a mother who is about to become a mother, so I can naturally understand how Xiao Jieyu felt just now. It hurts her son's body and mother's body. If you can help him Having suffered all these hardships, Xiao Jieyu must have no hesitation."

Xiao Jieyu said sadly: "My lady is still willing to be considerate, isn't she? The concubine was also confused just now, and lost her sense of control when her heart was messed up. Since that lowly maidservant has already received her retribution, then my lady should not talk about this matter again." Take it to heart, it's important to take a good rest."

Qingchen always had a faint smile on his face, but that smile seemed a bit forced, "I know, Qi'er was frightened, if he can't eat the soothing soup, you can also get someone to smoke some soothing pillow for him." Xiang, don't let him sleep peacefully."

Xiao Jieyu hurriedly said: "My concubine, thank you for reminding me." Then she turned to the queen mother and said, "Queen mother, my concubine begs the queen mother to order a strict investigation into this matter. If you have such vicious thoughts, if you just tolerate the person who instigated Qiaohui , I don’t know what troubles will happen again in the future. It’s lucky that Qi’er was saved, such strange poisons can be found to harm people, if poison is used next time, who can guarantee that they will be able to avoid it?”

The queen mother knew that Xiao Jieyu would not just let it go, so she could only respond: "The Ai family knows, you can go back first, the most important thing right now is to take good care of the eldest prince, and the Ai family will make decisions for you. You don't have to worry about it anymore."

With the queen mother's words, Xiao Jieyu was relieved a lot. Seeing the tired look on the queen mother's face, she also felt a little sorry, so she said: "The queen mother should take a good rest, the concubine will take Qi'er back gone."

As soon as Xiao Jieyu left, the two imperial physicians of Cao Lou also resigned. Gu Yunfeng originally wanted to go out together, but heard Qingchen say: "Physician Gu, please stay, I still have something to ask you."
