The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 215 Who's Responsibility
"You said... what?" Concubine Ning, who was planning to close her eyes to rest, suddenly opened her eyes and asked coldly.

"Mother, this old slave should be damned... the little prince is... not breathing, I'm afraid... I'm afraid he's dead." The midwife who was holding the child said so frightened that she knelt on the ground and trembled.

"Nonsense, the child of my palace is the emperor of the real dragon, and he will be the emperor in the future. How could he die?" Concubine Ning, who was already exhausted, sat up suddenly without knowing where the strength came from, and snatched it from the midwife. child.

The little baby was wrapped in swaddling clothes, sleeping very peacefully. Although there was no outline, it was the flesh that had fallen from her body. Concubine Ning put her face close to the child, and her heart...suddenly stopped, the child Really no longer breathing.

"How did this happen? How did this happen?" Concubine Ning burst into tears holding the child.

Several imperial doctors stepped forward, took the child, examined it carefully, and found that the child was indeed not breathing, so they couldn't help but knelt down to plead guilty: "Major, my condolences, the little prince has ascended to heaven."

Concubine Ning's heart-piercing cry came from the inner hall, and the emperor in the outer hall didn't care too much, rushed in, seeing this scene, he couldn't help being dumbfounded.

"This is... what's wrong?" The emperor said slowly.

My Majesty, my condolences... The little prince has ascended to heaven. "The five imperial physicians knelt on the ground together and reported the matter to the emperor.

Suddenly, the emperor's heart went cold from beginning to end, the child died?A newborn baby dies just like that?

"How is it possible? Show me." The emperor took the child from the imperial physician. The little baby no longer had the warmth that a human body should have. His eyes were tightly closed, as if he had been sleeping, never wake up.

"Is it the prince?" The emperor asked again foolishly.

The three midwives knelt on the ground and nodded in panic, not daring to move: "Go back to the emperor, it's the little prince."

"My child... my emperor's son." After finishing speaking, the emperor also shed tears. This man who has always been flattered and humiliated also cried. Maybe no one can pretend to be strong in such a situation.

"Your Majesty, he is dead, and my concubine has nothing to love." After saying that, Concubine Ning slammed into the pillar beside the bed, fortunately, the Emperor had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed Concubine Ning: "Lingshan, what are you doing? You are still young, do you still have a chance?"

Concubine Ning opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but finally she couldn't say it, and finally she fainted.

In the end, the emperor handed the child to the midwife and regained his composure: "I passed on my oral order to posthumously designate the little prince as King Yi and bury him in the imperial mausoleum."

"Yes."

At this time, the entire Lingbo Palace knew the shocking news. Empress Dowager He was too old to bear the blow, fainted, and was carried back to Tianxuan Palace.

Concubine Ning was dying, and she cried and passed out after waking up several times. The hospital was never too busy.

The emperor was in a bad mood and had been guarding Concubine Ning in Lingbo Palace to calm her down.

"What's going on here?" Facing the maids and eunuchs who saw Concubine Ning's accident with their own eyes, the emperor asked sharply.

"Returning to the emperor, the servants heard... the empress shouted, and ran in. That... black cat... seemed crazy, and it jumped at the empress again and again, which was very frightening. Later, the guards came in and killed the black cat. , but the empress has already been thrown to the ground by the black cat." The emperor, if you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Guizi, he also saw it at that time.The little palace maid cried and explained the matter again.

The little palace lady is right, the imperial physician also made the diagnosis in the same way, saying that Concubine Ning fell to the ground and moved the fetus because of her advanced pregnancy, which caused the little prince to become stillborn in the womb. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the child to be born.

"Are there only black cats? Have you found anyone suspicious?" the emperor asked with some doubts.

The little maid shook her head: "No, there is nothing suspicious."

The emperor frowned, this is strange, the black cat is a beast, how could it attack Concubine Ning for no reason?Unless it was instigated by someone, but the guards outside Lingbo Palace also said that they didn't see any suspicious people, which is quite strange when you think about it.

The most troublesome thing is this black cat. If it belonged to someone else, it would be easy to handle, but it happened to belong to the queen mother. The emperor knew that the queen mother didn't like Concubine Ning, but he also knew that she liked children. The black cat went to hurt Concubine Ning.

It seems that this matter is getting more and more strange...Suddenly, the emperor had a flash of inspiration, could it be her?But even if she is identified, there is no evidence to point it out. It seems that he underestimated her ability before.

She is far more vicious and terrifying than he imagined...

"Sister Concubine Ning, you must take care of your body. You are still young. The little prince is gone, and you can live on in the future. Don't do stupid things." Shen Bilan comforted with tears.

Concubine Ning was lying on the bed, her eyes were dull, and she didn't respond at all...

"Your Majesty, it's time for us to go, and you have been tossing all night without rest." Xiaoman, the maid of honor, said slowly.

Shen Bilan nodded, got up and walked out, but met the emperor in the outer hall: "Your majesty, this concubine has comforted Concubine Ning for a while, her mood is much more stable, you don't have to worry, go and rest."

"Lan'er, do you think this incident was an accident, or someone did it on purpose?" Without answering Shen Bilan's question, the emperor asked thoughtfully.

"This...isn't it an accident? The black cat is an animal, so it shouldn't be intentional. If the emperor suspects it was an accident, then do you suspect that it is the queen's mother? The black cat belongs to the queen's mother?" Shen Bilan was very smart. Suspicious, she immediately brought the matter to the queen mother. She knew that the emperor was very filial, so she probably wouldn't go to the queen mother to investigate.

"How could it be the queen mother? Forget it, you go back first, I am here to accompany Lingshan." Seeing that Shen Bilan was so calm, the emperor felt that there was nothing to ask, so he simply stopped asking.

"Yes, the concubine will leave first." After speaking, Shen Bilan bowed and walked out of Lingbo Palace with the maid.

After leaving Lingbo Palace, the sky was already bright. Looking at the colorful dark clouds in the sky, Shen Bilan was in a particularly good mood. Seeing that there was no one around, she smiled sweetly: "Xiaoman, I want to eat It’s glutinous rice and longan porridge, go and order the imperial dining room to make some and send it to Jiuhua Palace.”

"Yes." Xiaoman then went to the imperial dining room as instructed.

Jiuhua Palace

Shen Bilan went back and had a sweet sleep. After getting up, she ate a bowl of glutinous rice and longan porridge that she specially named, and then wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully.

"Take it down, I'm full." Shen Bilan smiled.

"Empress, this time God has eyes. The death of Concubine Ning's child is really a good thing for us." Xiaoman has followed Shen Bilan for many years and has long understood a truth. If the master is finished, Then she will be finished. For so many years, relying on the queen, she has bullied other concubines a lot, so she must do her best to maintain the reputation and status of the queen.

Shen Bilan turned around: "Xiaoman, do you really think God has eyes?"

"Ah? Wasn't it an accident? Could it be...?" Xiaoman couldn't believe it. At least she came forward to help the children who poisoned those women before. This time, the empress didn't say a word. She thought that the empress didn't want to touch Concubine Ning anymore. I didn't think too much about it.

But now listening to the Queen's tone, it seems that it is not as simple as I thought, and there is probably something inside.

Sure enough, Shen Bilan smiled contemptuously: "Xiaoman, this time, I did it myself."

"Ah? What, empress, did you do it yourself?" Xiaoman couldn't believe it. The queen and the emperor have been married for more than five years. During these five years, they have dealt with those concubines a lot, but this time, Concubine Ning turned out to be the queen who moved her. hands.

It was so dangerous. Concubine Ning's life was hanging by a thread last night, and she almost died together with the child. If the emperor hadn't issued a death order to save Concubine Ning, I am afraid that Concubine Ning would have turned into loess and died in the imperial mausoleum by now.

"Xiaoman, guess what happened to the black cat?" Shen Bilan smiled triumphantly.

"Isn't the black cat the Empress Dowager's darling? Could it be that... the Empress Dowager ordered her to do this?" Xiaoman could hardly believe her bold speculation.

Shen Bilan pursed her lips: "How is it possible? I can still count on her? She is hoping that her grandson will go crazy. Not to mention Concubine Ning, even if it is born by Baolin, she probably likes it too."

"What's the matter with the black cat?" Xiaoman thought about it, but couldn't come up with this layout.

At this moment, Shen Bilan took out a very small paper bag from her cuff and said slowly: "This is a special kind of face powder, which has no smell, and we humans can't smell it, but cats are extremely sensitive. That little black cat is a male cat. Now that winter is over and it is in estrus, it is natural to beg for a female cat everywhere. Unfortunately, the palace is heavily guarded. Except for the Queen Mother, who would dare to openly raise a cat? So I took the opportunity to ask the Queen Mother to please her. At that time, I put this pack of estrus powder on the little beast, it would think it was a female cat when it smelled it, and then I went to Concubine Ning, and sprinkled some on her cuff, the black cat smells very good Sensitive, she found Concubine Ning by chasing the smell, thinking that she had a female cat hidden in her body, so she was determined to turn her back on her back, hehe, it's just a pity that the little black cat was shot to death by random arrows, but it's good, so as not to Ben Gong did it himself."

Hearing this, Xiaoman couldn't help but gasped. She had followed the queen for many years. She used to think that the queen was very smart and thoughtful, but she didn't expect that she could be so vicious and her layout so flawless. Don't If it's the queen mother or the emperor, I'm afraid that even if they know it, they can't do anything to her, because there is no evidence, the black cat is dead, and the smell of incense powder can't be smelled by people, so it can be said that there is no proof of death.

"Niangniang, you... are so powerful, this method is really high." Xiaoman turned her head and couldn't help but praise.

"To deal with Concubine Ning, of course we can't use those clumsy methods. Now I can sleep peacefully. Even if that little beast is born, I still can't let him live through the day. It's a matter of time, early death and early reincarnation." Shen Bilan said lightly.

Xiaoman couldn't help but feel cold behind her back. The empress is only 20 years old, and she looks beautiful. She looks like a good woman on the outside, but she doesn't know that under such a glamorous appearance, such a clumsy heart is buried. .

I really know people, know their faces, but don't know their hearts...

Tianxuan Palace

The empress dowager was also in a state of desperation due to the matter of the little prince, so she was helped back to Tianxuan Palace to rest, but unexpectedly, someone came to Xingshi to question her.

"Empress Dowager, the Prime Minister is asking to see you." Nanny Chang said softly.

"Prime Minister Ning? He came very quickly." After the Empress Dowager He finished speaking lightly, she reluctantly got up, changed her clothes and walked out.

"The old minister sees the Empress Dowager." Prime Minister Ning saluted respectfully in a python robe.

"Prime Minister, you don't need to be too polite, just be yourself." Empress Dowager He's words were sharp, without losing any momentum.

"Empress Dowager, the old minister is here today, I think you should know what is the matter, right?" Prime Minister Ning asked straight to the point with a grim expression on his face.
