The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 216
"Aijia understands, you want to ask about Concubine Ning, right?" Empress Dowager He knew it well, ever since Prime Minister Ning sent his niece into the palace, Empress Dowager He knew his intentions very well, this old fox has already made up his mind Abacus, Concubine Ning has indeed won the favor of the emperor with her own little tricks, and the scenery is unparalleled. After she became pregnant last year, she trekked even more arrogantly. The Ning family seemed to be full of hope for this Concubine Ning, but in At this critical moment, Concubine Ning's child actually died?How did this make Prime Minister Ning suffer? The situation he had worked so hard to set up was all over at once, how could he be reconciled?
"Empress Dowager, Lingshan has always been in good health. Ever since she became pregnant, the imperial doctor also said that the baby is fine and there is no problem. If your black cat hadn't bumped into her, it wouldn't have turned out like this?" Ning The prime minister obviously knew what he said.

Empress Dowager He made a black face on the spot: "Prime Minister, what do you mean by that? Do you think Aijia ordered the black cat to hit Concubine Ning on purpose? What is in her stomach is also Aijia's grandson, and now the emperor is over 25, but there is no heir, do you think Aijia is not in a hurry?"

"No, the old minister didn't mean that. How could he doubt the empress dowager? What the old minister meant was that there must be something strange behind this incident. Maybe someone wanted to make a big fuss by using the empress dowager's black cat? So the old minister meant to investigate thoroughly For this matter, we must find out the person who made the attack and avenge Lingshan." The point is, it turns out that the Prime Minister did not come to ask the teacher for his crimes, but to force the Queen Mother to hand over the person behind the scenes, but how does the Queen Mother know who is the person behind the scene? Well, if I knew, I wouldn't be frowning here.

Even though he said so, Empress Dowager He still agreed: "It's a matter of course. Even if the prime minister doesn't say anything, Ai's family will investigate this matter thoroughly. Now that something like this happened, the whole harem panicked. I'm also in a bad mood, I hope you can understand, Prime Minister, after all, our Xigong imperial family and your Ning family are both victims of this matter."

"Yes, I understand, I hope the Queen Mother can try her best to find out who is behind the scenes, and give us Lingshan an explanation." Prime Minister Ning also looked a little haggard, after all, this move was a total loss.

"Okay, the Ai family promises you, the prime minister will go back and wait for the news." Empress Dowager He can see that this time Concubine Ning's accident happened, the Ning family is also in trouble, and they feel suffocated, it seems that if they don't hand over one If the murderer comes, then they will not keep their mouths shut.

"Then the empress dowager, the old minister will leave first." After finishing speaking, the prime minister turned and left.

Empress Dowager He rubbed her temples with a tired look on her face, Nanny Chang hurried over to support Empress Dowager: "Ma'am, are you alright?"

"It's okay, Aijia is just a little tired." Queen Mother He said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Ning, this old fox is too much. At the beginning, he sent his niece into the palace to be a concubine with all his heart. Now that something happened, it's all your fault, and he forced you to ask for someone. What is this, really? Do you regard yourself as someone else?" Chang Momo defended the Queen Mother.

"Forget it, he is upset, and the Ai family understands that since the Ai family has agreed to him, I will give him an explanation." It seems that Queen Mother He is really sorry about this matter, after all, it was her black cat who caused Concubine Ning to throw her away. Killed a child and almost lost his life.

"Is there someone who chooses the empress? Could it be that the empress already knows who did it?" Nanny Chang was a little surprised.

"Isn't there a secret room ready? You send someone to send Yao Meiren to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow. By the way, don't forget to pour dumb drugs on her before sending her, and then tell them to execute her secretly. This Yao Ying, The Ai family originally expected her to deal with Dugu Jialuo, but now that everyone has run away, it is useless to keep her, that woman's reputation is gone, and staying in the harem is even more harmful, so she should be a substitute for the dead." It seems that the queen mother has long thought calculated.

"Yes, the old slave will do it now." Saying that, Nanny Chang turned to leave.

"Wait a minute." The Empress Dowager suddenly remembered something and called out Nanny Chang.

"Your Majesty, do you have other orders?" Nanny Chang paused and turned her head.

"By the way, send someone to call Bilan to Ai's family." Queen Mother He said.

"Yes."

In this way, Nanny Chang was ordered to inject Yao Ying with dumb drugs, beat her severely, and planned to send it to the prime minister's mansion the next day. Poor beauty Yao still dreamed of flying to a branch, but she didn't want to be someone else's substitute. lamb of sin.

Late night
Tianxuan Palace

Empress Dowager He seldom asked herself to go there so late, so Shen Bilan was anxious all the way. She was always worried about one thing, whether her scheme had been seen through?
No, even if the queen mother guessed that she had no evidence, Shen Bilan comforted herself like this, and Feng Ren arrived at Tianxuan Palace in a short while.

Shen Bilan walked into the inner hall slowly, and found that the Empress Dowager He hadn't rested yet, but was drinking tea quietly.

"The concubine pays her respects to the queen mother." Shen Bilan lowered her head in panic and said.

"Get up, Lan'er, come here and ask Ai's family to come to you." Empress Dowager He waved and said.

"Yes." Shen Bilan was even more frightened. The sudden enthusiasm of the Empress Dowager He made her even more uncertain, after all, the Queen Mother's behavior was abnormal.

Empress Dowager He looked up and saw that Shen Bilan was a little nervous, and smiled kindly: "Why are you nervous?"

"No...it's nothing, it's just that I'm so late, and I'm still in shock after walking at night." Shen Bilan explained in a panic.

"Lan'er, do you know why Ai's family asked you to come here tonight?" Empress Dowager He looked at Shen Bilan thoughtfully and suddenly said.

Shen Bilan shook her head: "I don't know."

"Lan'er, do you know that there is a saying that if you want others to know you, don't you know?"

Shen Bilan was a little dumbfounded, and began to feel a little guilty: "Mother, what do you mean by that?"

"Lan'er, how has the Ai family treated you for so many years?" Empress Dowager He avoided that question and changed the subject instead.

"Very good. The queen mother treats me as her own. For so many years, after the decline of the Shen family, it was the queen mother who took care of the concubines." Shen Bilan replied softly.

"Very good, but the Ai family doesn't understand one thing, since the Ai family is so kind to you? Why did you kill the grandson of the Ai family? Is this the so-called retribution for kindness?" Queen Mother He's tone was very calm, calm It's almost scary.

"Ah? Mother, what did you say? It's not a concubine, how can you doubt the concubine? Concubine Ning's child is gone, and the concubine is also very sad?" Hearing this, Shen Bilan was immediately frightened out of her wits.

"Lan'er, Aijia knows you too well. Now you are just like the Aijia back then. Only a few of the former emperor's sons were left in the end, and Yao'er was able to sit on the throne. These... are definitely not accidental, Aijia I understand your situation very well, after all Concubine Ning's birth of a prince poses a serious threat to your status, and you...are also very smart, and you actually used such a clever technique, which really impressed the Ai family." Empress Dowager He said coldly .

"Queen Mother... Concubine...?" Shen Bilan wanted to say something, but was anxious to explain, but she was interrupted by the Queen Mother before she finished speaking.

"Lan'er, Aijia's black cat has always been well-behaved and obedient, and will never attack people, but it doesn't like to be hugged by others. On that day, Aijia remembers that you hugged it, right?"

"Mother, the concubine was just...?"

"You hugged it forcibly, but it didn't scratch you. Ai Jia felt strange. Now that I think about it, it must have been a trick at that time." Almost collapsed on the spot.

"Lan'er, you must have been forced into a hurry by Concubine Ning when you did this, and Aijia doesn't blame you." Shen Bilan was terrified to see the empress dowager's benevolent face.

"Queen Mother, this matter was caused by my concubine's confusion, please don't tell the emperor." This time, Shen Bilan finally knew what it means to be scheming. She carefully designed such a perfect layout, and she was guessed by the Queen Mother overnight. , As expected, ginger is still old and spicy.

That's right, it wasn't luck that Empress Dowager He was able to stand out from the thousands of women of the former emperor and sit on the throne of the harem lord.

Shen Bilan is only worried now, not to be known by the emperor, if the emperor finds out, she must be killed.

"Don't worry, the emperor doesn't know about Aijia's black cat. Only Aijia knows about it. This time you not only killed Aijia's grandson but also Aijia's beloved black cat. This is the first and last time, Lan'er." Once, there was a battle in the harem that Aijia didn't want to ask. You young people have their own skills, but Aijia is old and likes children. From now on... don't sacrifice Aijia's grandson. If you want to avoid future troubles, just don't let the emperor Fortunately for those women." Empress Dowager He's words resounded in her ears, and Shen Bilan never dared to look up at the Empress Dowager.

"Yes, empress mother, this concubine knows her mistake, and from now on...it won't happen again." Shen Bilan was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and shivered.

"Get up, Lan'er, the purpose of Aijia's coming to you today is not to ask you to repent." Empress Dowager He said unhurriedly.

"Yes." Shen Bilan got up, not knowing why.

"This is the end of Concubine Ning's matter. Prime Minister Ning is here to ask for someone. Ai's family has already found a scapegoat for you. Don't worry." Empress Dowager He picked up her teacup and said slowly.

"Thank you... Queen Mother." Although she felt awkward, Shen Bilan still said bravely. Of course, she was not naive enough to think that the Queen Mother just came to her and told her that this matter just passed away. She thought, it must be There is also the following.

"God knows this matter, you know it, I know it, and the Ai family didn't even tell Madam Chang." Empress Dowager He added in order to reassure Shen Bilan.

"Yes, Queen Mother." Shen Bilan stood aside, not daring to raise her head, feeling very guilty.

"Lan'er, I'm looking for you today because I have a task for you." The Empress Dowager He finally got to the point, and Shen Bilan breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that the Empress Dowager He must have other purposes. Not even late at night.

"Mother, please tell me that as long as the concubine can do it, the concubine is willing to do everything for the queen." Shen Bilan uttered cruel words in order to please the queen mother. Of course, she just killed someone else's grandson. To show faithfulness.

"Lan'er, you have to answer truthfully when the Ai family asks you. Recently...have you met with Jue Xi Gong?" Empress Dowager He asked, staring at Shen Bilan sharply.

"I've seen it before. A few days ago, my concubine was sick, and many ministers went to visit. Jue... no, it was King Rui'an who went." Shen Bilan said truthfully.

Empress Dowager He nodded: "Well, very good, in the future... get closer to him more."

"Empress... what does this mean?" Empress Dowager He wanted to kill Xi Gongjue before, once Shen Bilan had a little deviant behavior, even if she smiled at Xi Gongjue, she would be scolded bloody by Empress Dowager He, but now this The old lady actually wanted to get closer to him, Shen Bilan wondered if Empress Dowager He had gone crazy.

"Well, get closer to him. Aijia wants you to find something on your body, something very important." Queen Mother He put down the teacup and said solemnly.
