"Your Majesty, your Majesty is here." Nanny Sun walked in slowly.

When Concubine Jing turned around, a bright and gentle smile was already on her face: "Let's go, don't keep His Majesty waiting too long."

Grandma Sun was taken aback. How long had it been since she saw such a bright smile.

Before she could think too much, Concubine Jing walked forward with strides, and Nanny Sun followed.

"Your Majesty." Concubine Jing called softly.

The Emperor of Chu was thinking about Concubine Jing, and came here in a hurry as soon as he came down to court. Hearing that Concubine Jing was talking privately with his mother, he waited outside for a while.

"I just saw that your mother's complexion doesn't look good, but do you want me to hire a doctor for her?" Chu Huang remembered Zhao Man'er walking out with a pale face, and couldn't help asking worriedly. After all, it was Concubine Jing's mother. It is inevitable that Concubine Jing will be sad.

"Your Majesty is concerned, mother is fine, just go back and have a rest." Concubine Jing pursed her lips.

"That's good."

Emperor Chu took Concubine Jing's little hand and sat down, remembering the news he heard in the morning, and said with a smile: "I heard that you lost your temper early in the morning, but what are you dissatisfied with here?"

Concubine Jing clenched her fingers slightly, yes, this is the emperor's bedroom after all, he will definitely receive the news.

"Your Majesty is making fun of the concubine again. The concubine just doesn't like this hairstyle. Those palace staff are so stupid that the concubine can't be angry." Concubine Jing shook Emperor Chu's arm resolutely. She was obviously not a girl anymore, but This style does not appear to be hypocritical, on the contrary there is a kind of cuteness.

Chu Huang laughed, but found the temperament of his youth.

"I know, I will ask someone to replace you with a group of handy maids later."

Concubine Jing hurriedly said: "This is so troublesome, the concubine only needs those people in the previous palace, I am used to it, and it is easy to use."

"Alright."

The Emperor Chu patted her hand: "I have already found out about the water leakage in Jingxiu Palace. It was the candlestick that was blown to the ground by the wind and ignited the curtain, and then it ignited. In the future, I will pay attention to it. People from the Ministry of Industry have already asked the Jingxiu Palace to be rebuilt, and you will stay here for the time being, as for the medicine, can you ask which genius doctor your mother gave the prescription for? I will send someone to look for it."

Hearing Emperor Chu's words, Concubine Jing frowned. She saw that this was not a simple accident, but since the matter was over, if she insisted on investigating, it would easily arouse suspicion.

"Your Majesty is so kind to his concubines." Concubine Jing snuggled into Emperor Chu's arms, "But my mother will take care of the medicine, so Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it."

"If you need anything, tell me."

Concubine Jing hummed, and looked at Emperor Chu with a smile. Just looking at him like this, Emperor Chu felt like a fire was burning in his heart.

With a hook with his long hand, the curtain was slowly lowered, and the room was full of style again.

……

The fact that Jingxiu Palace was flooded and the court lady Dongshuang was burned to death soon spread to the Queen's ears.

"Empress, it's not good to ask this old slave to say that this is retribution! Even God can't bear to look down on Concubine Jing, so he sent down punishment. It's a pity, Miss Yun. I heard that when she was carried out, her whole body was burnt black, and there was nothing good about it. Meat." Cao Mama was rubbing the queen's temples, and when she heard this, she frowned tightly.

She thought this girl was smart before, but she didn't expect to die in a blink of an eye.

The queen pursed her lips: "It doesn't matter if you say this in front of me, but you have to keep your mouth shut outside."

"The old slave knows."

The queen sighed, the fire came so suddenly!Earlier, Dong Xue had told her that Yun Yiyi knew where the antidote was, and she was waiting for him to get it, only to hear the news of her death.

She is dead, and the antidote is unknown. If I knew it earlier, I should let her tell the location first.

While the two were talking, someone from the palace came to report that Hong'er was here.

Remembering that her son hadn't heard from her yet, the queen hurriedly invited someone in.

"Empress." Hong'er performed a standard court ceremony.

The queen waved her hand: "These hypocrisy will be avoided, what's the matter with you here?"

Hong'er glanced around, hesitated to speak.

"Grandma Cao, you all go out," the queen said.

Mammy Cao consciously walked out with the others.

After sitting up straight, the queen stared at Hong'er closely, "Is Han'er feeling better?"

"Reporting to Empress, His Highness's poison has been cured, and taking the antidote for another year will completely eliminate it from the body." Hong'er lowered her voice.

The queen was taken aback: "Have you got the antidote?"

Hong'er nodded.

"Jingxiu Palace was flooded last night. I heard that Yunyan was burned to death... I plan to send someone to bury her properly. If you know the location of her family, please take some money for me to comfort them." Overjoyed Yu, the empress felt a little disappointed when she thought about this. After all, this girl entered the palace only to save her own child.

"Empress, let's forget about the money, she doesn't need it." Hong'er smiled.

"Of course I know she doesn't need her, but the living always need to live."

Before she finished speaking, the queen heard Hong'er's laughter, she looked over unexpectedly, and gave Hong'er a cold look.

"Your Majesty, she's not dead!" Hong'er laughed.

The queen was dubious: "The corpses have been carried out, how could it be?"

"That's a dead body I found. Miss Yun is alive and well." Hong'er explained, "The situation was indeed critical at the time, and Miss Yun was almost buried in flames. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to save herself from danger."

So, Hong'er simply told the queen what had happened.

The queen frowned after hearing this: "What nonsense! Such a big deal! How could it be such a joke!"

"Isn't it too late for the time?" Hong'er muttered in a low voice, if Liu Han's condition wasn't getting worse, Yun Yiyi wouldn't have to take such a big risk.

This time, he almost gave his life.

"What did you say?" The queen glanced at her, but couldn't hear what she was mumbling.

Hong'er hurriedly changed the subject: "Empress Empress, I actually came here to confirm something with you."

The queen took a sip of tea and motioned her to continue.

This is a serious matter, Hong'er stepped forward, leaned into the Queen's ear, and told the Queen about the suspicion of Concubine Jing's identity.

"What? There is such a thing!" The queen almost couldn't hold the teacup, but it was Hong'er who caught the teacup that was about to fall.

Hong'er softly comforted: "Your Majesty, these are just speculations and there is no definite proof. Your Highness asked me to come to confirm to your Majesty whether there is anything suspicious."

The empress looked thoughtful, and after a while she said: "There is something, I don't know if it is suspicious or not."

"Back when Concubine Jing gave birth to King Qi, she had a difficult labor. The imperial physicians said she couldn't make it through. His Majesty went to see her for the last time. Who knows, she survived in the end. Since then, Concubine Jing's temper has changed. Moodiness, I only said it was the fault of having a child, but listening to what you say, it may not be simple."

The queen recalled the first time she met Concubine Jing, with a sigh in her eyes: "When I saw Concubine Jing for the first time, I was thinking about what kind of woman could make His Majesty fall in love with you at first sight. Originally, I wanted to teach her a lesson. I don't know the rules, but when I saw her, I felt that I was narrow-minded."

Hong'er looked at the queen in surprise, obviously she didn't expect the queen to have such a time, so she couldn't help but become curious.

"Your Majesty, what was Concubine Jing like back then?"

"Gentle and beautiful, kind and pure." The queen thought for a while and gave a four-word evaluation.

Hong'er's expression was immediately indescribable: "Your Majesty, are you talking about Concubine Jing?"

It's not that she hasn't seen Concubine Jing, how can these four words be matched?
And... kind?
Do kind people poison people?

"If what you just said is true, then Concubine Jing must not be the same person she used to be. Maybe she died after giving birth to King Qi."

The queen pursed her lips, she found that when Concubine Jing murdered the prince and princess, Queen Qi was already born, but before that, the relationship between her and Concubine Jing hadn't been so tense.

Although it can't be said to be very close, but it is not so defensive. Therefore, when smallpox was prevalent, she really didn't suspect Concubine Jing. In order to protect Han'er, he suffered for many years.

The news that Hong'er brought her was like throwing a stone into the calm lake.

Thinking about it again, it is understandable that Concubine Jing has different personalities before and after.

After all, if it's another person, no matter how much they pretend to be, they will show their feet.

Thinking of Concubine Jing's first day after giving birth, she went to visit, what was Concubine Jing's expression at that time, surprise or panic?
She couldn't remember clearly, but at the time she thought it was because she gave birth to the child, so she didn't think much about it.

Who would have thought that she was no longer Concubine Jing at that time, no wonder her waist was always so thin, as if she had never given birth.

Even after she gave birth to Prince Jing, she recovered for a long time, unlike Concubine Jing who always had such a good figure.

"Niang Niang, do you have a way to test Concubine Jing?" Hong'er asked after thinking about it.

The queen pursed her lips: "I don't have much contact with her, so I don't know what is special about Concubine Jing. If I really want to find someone, I'm afraid the only person is Your Majesty."

The best candidate is naturally the Emperor Chu, but according to the love that the Emperor Chu has for Concubine Jing, how could he doubt Concubine Jing just because of her words?

This obviously doesn't work, what's more, if Emperor Chu finds out, Concubine Jing will definitely take precautions, and it will be bad for them at that time.

Hong'er naturally also thought of this level, she rubbed between her brows and felt a headache.

"I will think of a way to deal with this matter. Han'er needs someone by her side, so go back first." The Queen calmly ordered.

Hong'er responded and backed out, ready to go back and talk to Liu Han about this matter.

"Mommy, Dongxue is still on duty at Concubine Jing's side?" After Caomao came in, the queen asked.

Granny Cao nodded: "Your Majesty, do you need her to come back?"

The queen sat down and knocked on the table: "No, let her pay attention to Concubine Jing's every move, and report to me no matter what she does, and let her do her best to work beside Concubine Jing. quick."

"Yes, ma'am." Cao Mama stepped back quickly.
