Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 869 Whose Conspiracy?Journey to Jiangnan (1)
"No." Feng Qingli replied very simply, "I'm a bit busy these days, so I can't accompany you. I don't worry about you being alone." He held Qiu Mingyue's hand, "Xuanxuan, don't worry, I'll send you If someone secretly protects your mother, she will be fine. Besides, don’t you still have your father and grandfather? Your third sister’s temperament really should be taught a lesson. The married daughter runs to her mother’s house all day long. It will make people laugh if it spreads. Don't get in touch with her, or you will be hurt."

Qiu Mingyue was helpless, "Actually, I was worried that she would take her anger out on others after being wronged. Eldest sister finally got better, so don't get sick from her anger again."

"You always think about others, when can you think about yourself?"

Eh?
Qiu Mingyue pursed her lips, "Aren't we going to Jiangnan? Then we won't be able to come back for at least two or three months. I have to know that my mother and my brother are safe, so I can rest assured?"

Feng Qingli was speechless, "Eat."

Qiu Mingyue shrugged and said nothing.

In the next few days, Feng Qingli stayed in Tongjun Pavilion with Qiu Mingyue every day.Because the Empress and Concubine De were involved in the matter of murdering the prince and framing the concubines, everyone in the harem was in danger recently, and there was also a turbulent tide in the court, but no one mentioned the matter of appointing a crown prince.The number of times Old Concubine Luo entered the palace has increased significantly, and the reason is to visit her granddaughter, who is now the fifth concubine.

Because this incident is a bit special, the queen is a suspect and cannot preside over the middle palace, and the queen mother is too old to manage alone, so she asked concubine Shu to help investigate.As a result, everyone in the harem was in a panic. Those who used to curry favor with the Empress Concubine De had long wished to go as far as possible, for fear of getting involved with them and causing trouble.

Three days later, Concubine Shu presented a series of evidence.But it is strange that every time the key is found, the witness will disappear for no reason, but there will be an extra body in a dry well that night or the next day, or someone will hang himself in a certain house.Or it was found that someone died of inexplicable poisoning.There are countless such things.In just a few days, seven or eight court ladies and eunuchs died in the harem.

It's not surprising that there are dead people every day in the palace.The key is to die at this sensitive time, even if those people are passers-by A, B, C, D, who are usually not noticed, it is scary enough.Therefore, in such a gloomy atmosphere, the palace seemed to be shrouded in a bloody chill.

There are no witnesses, but this further shows that the Queen and Concubine De are guilty of guilt.Otherwise, why did those witnesses die at the critical moment?
Feng Qingli said that the queen smashed a lot of jewelry and porcelain in her bedroom, and Concubine De dealt with several court ladies around her.

The eldest prince rarely enters the palace.Ever since this incident happened, the eldest prince has been 'waiting' at home and will not go to court for the time being.The fourth prince also stayed in his own palace all day long, not going anywhere, only concentrating on taking care of Luo Zhulian and the child in her womb.

It seemed that the two princes who had the best chance of competing for the crown prince seemed to have quieted down.

Half a month later, the day of the draft arrived.

At this time, another news came from the palace.

Luo Zhulian had a miscarriage!

When she heard the news, Qiu Mingyue was leaning on the soft couch, reading a book and eating fruit.When she heard Feng Qingli's words, she was stunned for a moment.

"Luo Zhulian had a miscarriage? Isn't she just pregnant?"

Feng Qingli took a sip of tea, her eyes were a little weird.

"However, the result of the imperial physician's diagnosis is that she is not pregnant at all, but is just a small trick to win favor."

"what?"

Qiu Mingyue stood up, "Not pregnant? What's going on here?"

Luo Zhulian, in her impression, is not a very scheming woman.

Feng Qingli knocked on the edge of the table, and said: "After the imperial doctor's diagnosis, she couldn't believe it, she cried and said that she was indeed pregnant. The imperial physician is already dead. His eye sockets are blue, his Yintang is black, and there are black blood stains at the corner of his mouth, obviously poisoned."

Qiu Mingyue raised her head, "That's weird! Who killed the imperial physician? Herself? If she was really pregnant, wouldn't she have to keep this ID? If she wasn't pregnant, wouldn't killing the imperial physician be more obvious? And if she was Pretending, and at this sensitive stage, it must be the idea of ​​Defei and the others. Maybe they want to use this child to win some opportunities, or they want to use this child to bring down the person they want to bring down. If this is the case , with Concubine De's experience in the harem for so many years, how could there be such a big loophole for people to find out?"

She looked at Feng Qingli, "Isn't Luo Zhulian the concubine? She has a huge family background, and the fourth prince treats her well. Why does she want to fake pregnancy to compete for favor? Isn't this unreasonable? Don't those people think about it?" this problem?"

"Because the fourth prince favored a newly-acquired concubine. It is said that the concubine is very good at pleasing men, and she is quite favored by the fourth prince. The fourth prince was jealous, so she pretended to be pregnant."

Feng Qingli's expression didn't fluctuate much, "The key is that Luo Zhulian's child's miscarriage was not accidental, it was man-made."

"Who?"

"Aunt Qin followed the clues to the end and found that someone had used Luo Zhulian's anti-fetal medicine, and that person happened to be the nanny in charge of Fengqi Palace. The imperial grandmother sent someone to arrest the nanny in charge, but found that The nanny also died inexplicably. Oh, after Luo Zhulian had a miscarriage, almost all the concubines in the harem went to see her. After finding out that this matter was related to the queen, the queen immediately denied it, but the nanny died. No matter how people try to hide it.”

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Now there are two opinions about Luo Zhulian's miscarriage. The first is that Luo Zhulian is pregnant. The queen sent someone to drug her to abort the disaster. The second is that she is pregnant. It is false, but it is true to fight for favor and frame the queen. Of course, she cannot do this by herself, and naturally Concubine De and Luo Wang will be involved. But no matter what the result is, there will undoubtedly be another incident in the current precarious harem. There was an uproar. The witnesses were all dead, so what anyone said didn’t count. The emperor’s grandmother knew that you were good at medicine, so she originally wanted you to enter the palace to check Luo Zhulian’s pulse, but I refused. Regardless of whether Luo Zhulian is pregnant or not, this matter is a And going in is a dead word, we'd better hide away. Besides, they know my identity, so naturally they won't believe what you say. So the emperor's grandmother had no choice but to find other evidence. What about the empress and concubine De? , um, because they were suspected of each other, both of them were confined in their own palaces, waiting to find out the truth of the matter."

"How do I feel..."

Qiu Mingyue frowned, "Is this a plan to kill two birds with one stone deliberately arranged by someone?"

"You see it too?"
