concubine poisonous concubine

Chapter 314 Scheming everywhere, traps everywhere

The princess shook her head, she was worried that the emperor would trap Xin Ruo in the palace and force her to intercede with Banyuefang, as long as she came back.

The concubine took a piece of sky blue brocade from the table, and said with a smile, "The thirteenth prince sent it just now, and the size is also there. He told you to prepare it as soon as possible and send it to him."

Xin Ruo twitched her lips, there are so many embroidered women in the palace, there is no need to exploit her.

It seems that Ning'er really provoked him today, who asked her to hold Ning'er in his arms, it's not bad if she didn't make ten compensations.

Xin Ruo took the brocade and handed it to Mo Lan. After sitting in the concubine's room for a while, she felt a little tired, so she went back to Jiangzixuan.

Xin Ruo just sat down and drank a cup of tea, and Mo Lan came in outside and said, "Young Mistress, Mr. Li really has a problem. He really wants to kill those old imperial doctors. The imperial doctors have been invited to the small courtyard. What should we do now?"

The corner of Xin Ruo's mouth was cold when he heard this, how far did Mrs. Fu extend her hand, even the prince was surrounded by her.

The prince doesn't ask much about the affairs of the palace, and if there is, he asks the general manager. If the general manager tells lies to deceive him, then the prince doesn't know much about the affairs of the palace. "Take good care of the imperial physician."

Mo Lan nodded in response, looking at Xin Ruo's yawning appearance, she said distressedly, "Young Mistress, you must be tired. This servant has someone prepare water. Young Mistress can take a shower and sleep first."

Xin Ruo nodded, she didn't sleep well at night, she was prone to sleepiness during the day, and she was even more sleepy after running back and forth.

Standing up, thinking of something, Xin Ruo said, "Isn't your home in Tongbei? This time, let's go back with Leng Hun."

Mo Lan hurriedly knelt down to thank her, Xin Ruo shook her head and went into the inner room, Zi Lan flashed a grimace in front of Mo Lan, and flicked her forehead with her index finger, "I don't have a long memory, I deserve it for ignoring you."

Mo Lan gritted her teeth, shrugged her nose and went back to the house to pack happily. The weather is hot these days, and the Tongbei area has been severely affected. She sent someone to find out that her parents are still alive.

Xin Ruo slept soundly, and when she got up, the lights in the room were turned on, and Zilan smiled with crooked eyebrows.

Xin Ruo knew at a glance that this happy event was unusual, so she heard Zi Lan say, "Half an hour ago, Brother Leng sent a letter, saying that the emperor decreed that Princess Lingrong should be demoted as princess, and asked the young lady what to do next?" How to do?"

Xin Ruo frowned slightly upon hearing this, and was only relegated to the rank of princess.

Although the princess is incomparable to the princess, she still has a noble status. If she wants to order something, she must go. Xin Ruo replied, "Let Leng Hun give the emperor 50 dans of food."

After hearing this, Zilan was about to ask about the 400 million taels of silver, but she opened her mouth and closed it just in time.

The young mistress meant that the punishment was lighter. Banyuefang gave 50 dans of grain, and if they wanted money, they had to continue to fine them until the young mistress was satisfied.

Xin Ruo smiled and asked Mo Lan to help her get dressed. Food is important, but money is equally important, and both are indispensable.

During the war, what is needed is to recruit soldiers and buy horses, the key is what is the use of some food.

Xin Ruozhen doubted that if there was no Banyuefang, the emperor would not have to fight.

On the second day, Leng Hun came back with a message that almost made Xin Ruo angry, and King Funing took out 100 million taels of silver to temporarily relieve the urgent need.

Xin Ruo is so angry, the court fights his war, how can the prince pay it out of his pocket, it is not a small amount, it is 100 million taels.

Is Funing Palace really so rich? Xin Ruo pouted and sat there sipping porridge sullenly.

She put pressure on the front, but the prince dragged her back. Xin Ruo bit the steamed bun angrily. She knew that she should give the money to the emperor. The imperial court didn't have so much food.

But the emperor backed down after all. For a favored princess who was relegated to be a princess, it was relatively light for her, but it was still very heavy in the eyes of those princesses.

If you keep going, those people will really suffer, but the prince only gave 100 million taels.

Although the number is quite a lot, it is far from enough. The war cannot stop in three or two days, she can afford to wait, and moreover, there are far more things to settle.

After Xin Ruo had breakfast, she went to Wangfei's room, and there was a crowd again, even the old lady Fu was there.

The concubine was sipping tea, and the old lady was pressing her, "Although the Palace of Funing is part of the royal family, fighting wars is the business of the court. How did the prince take out 100 million taels of silver, and where did the money come from? Let me ask you something! "

The princess looked at her lightly, frowned and said, "You ask me how I know, the palace belongs to the prince, and the prince can do whatever he wants, even if he sells the palace, the princess has nothing to say.

As for where the money came from, the prince will come down later, if you want to know, you can ask yourself. "

The princess said that, although the old lady was angry, she didn't ask any more. Seeing that she didn't know, she didn't care about anything. Marrying her was like marrying a more beautiful Bodhisattva.

Mrs. Fu's eyes were a little dark, she also found someone to follow the prince to check the things that the old prince avoided giving to the prince when he died, but every time there was no news, and several secret guards were lost instead.

What the prince is holding in his hand is more than a hundred times more important than the iron box. The iron box cannot be opened, but the prince is holding a large amount of silver in his hand, that is the most important thing.

The whole room looked like they had discovered a gold mine, sitting there excitedly waiting for the prince to come back.

After waiting for about half an hour, the prince came back with an iron box in his hand. Seeing a room full of people, he frowned, "What are you all doing here?"

The old lady couldn't wait any longer, so she blurted out and asked, "I heard that you gave 100 million taels to the emperor, is it true?"

The prince frowned, "What are you asking so many questions about? Don't discuss this matter again. I'm tired and want to rest. Let's all go down."

A large basin of bone-chilling cold water was poured down, extinguishing the dreams of many people.

After all, the prince is the head of the family. He said that no further discussion is allowed, and the tone is beyond doubt. Whoever dared to say more, many people opened their mouths.

The prince frowned, and closed his eyes obediently as soon as his eyes became cold. He also knew that he might not be able to get anything out of the question, like a pimple stuck in his heart, and he couldn't vomit.

Sooner or later, he will be suffocated to death, but he still stands up and bows down to leave.

The old lady looked at the iron box that the prince put on the table, her lips twitched twice, but she didn't say a word in the end, and one day she knew, Xin Ruo also went out.

Outside the bead curtain, Xin Ruo saw Mrs. Fu frowning, looking back at the iron box for a few seconds, a chill appeared in her eyes.

Xin Ruo glanced at the corners of her mouth, then stopped, looked back at the prince, and said crisply, "Father, Xin Ruo has something to say."

The prince sat there, nodded, Xin Ruo turned around and walked over, and asked in confusion, "Didn't the father want to find out if the former concubine was killed? Why did you send someone to kill those imperial physicians?"

The prince frowned, and heard Xin Ruo say, "Isn't it? The people from Banyuefang passed by Zhou Taiyi's house yesterday. They saw someone killing him and saved him by the way. Now he is in Banyuefang. The king spared his life."

The prince's face was a little heavy when he heard this, a series of beads falling sounded from outside the bead curtain, and a bead rolled directly to Xin Ruo's feet.

Xin Ruo picked it up and saw that it didn't belong to Mrs. Fu, why was she so anxious, isn't it the old lady who did the harm?

Could it be that she was also involved in this matter, the concubine's fetal loss caused massive bleeding, there must be a reason for it, it seems that Mrs. Fu is also involved.

The prince looked at the Buddhist beads all over the place, his eyes became very cold, "Come here, pass on to Mr. Li."

Xin Ruo was sitting in the room. She said that she would reach out behind the prince's back, and she also wanted to hear what Manager Li would say. Soon, Manager Li came and saluted, "The prince is here to find a slave. What order?"

The prince's face darkened, "How's the matter with the imperial physician going?"

Mr. Li was startled when he heard this, and replied, "The imperial physicians who helped the late concubine's pulse 30 years ago all died, and the slaves couldn't find them."

The prince looked at him, "Did the old doctor Zhou also die?"

Manager Li's face turned pale when he heard this, "Yesterday, my servant went to his house, and his servants said that he met an assassin when he went out, and his life and death are unpredictable."

Xin Ruo looked at Manager Li, "Really? But the people in Mrs. Zhou's house said that Mr. Li picked up the old doctor, and you let a few ruffians rush into Dr. Zhou's sedan chair at the door.

When did the guards of Prince Funing's Mansion become so weak that they couldn't even deal with a few hooligans? "

Mr. Li kept shaking his head in denial. Seeing the prince's eyes getting colder and colder, he was so frightened that he quickly knelt down, "My lord, young mistress slandered the servant."

Xin Ruo snorted and said, "Slander you? Ever since you left Jiangzixuan, there have been secret guards following you.

Do you want to find out those hidden guards and confront them? Those hidden guards are all sent by the father to the husband. Will they deceive the father? What do you think?
You should tell the truth. In my room, Mrs. Fu winked at you, so I paid attention to you. When did you betray the prince?Who told you to kill the old doctor? "

Manager Li suddenly became dumb, and his face became paler and darker. The prince's face was already covered with dark clouds, "You have been with me for decades, I never thought you would lie to me."

Manager Li looked at Xin Ruo, pursed his lips, and when Xin Ruo frowned, he saw bloodshot eyes left at the corner of his mouth, and the prince stood up from the table in shock.

Director Li refused to answer Xin Ruo's question, bit his tongue and killed himself?Xin Ruo looked at Mr. Li with cold eyes, frowning, he is really a loyal servant, but it's a pity that he doesn't belong to the prince.

Why didn't he confess, as long as he did, the prince might not kill him.

Xin Ruo looked at the blood at the corner of his mouth, it was a bit black, Xin Ruo's eyes were congealed, she bent down to look at it, and turned to look at the prince, "Director Li died of poisoning."

After Xin Ruo finished speaking, she glanced at Zi Lan, "Who did Manager Li meet on the way here?"

Seeing Xin Ruo asking Zi Lan, the princess frowned suspiciously. Xin Ruo worried that Mrs. Fu would wink at Mr. Li, so she asked Zi Lan to follow.

Zilan frowned thinking, and shook her head, "I haven't seen anyone, but I was bumped by a little maid in front of the princess's courtyard. The maid saw Mr. Li frowned, as if she was stabbed by something."
