Harem strategy

Chapter 123
Last time, because of the Queen Mother, Concubine Jing was only confined, and her status was not lowered.

But this time, because of her, the three princes are already in danger.

So no matter what the queen mother said this time, the emperor is not going to spare Concubine Jing.

The emperor said to Empress Zhao: "Look at the person first. Wait for a few minor illnesses to recover before dealing with them! For the Empress Dowager, send someone to talk about it."

Queen Zhao said: "The concubine should go and talk about it in person." Queen Zhao knew that the emperor was impatient and explained to the Queen Mother, but if she really sent someone there casually, she would not be respectful to the Queen Mother, so she could say it by herself. cleared up.

"Thank you queen!" The emperor really didn't want to tell the queen mother anything about Concubine Jing, there was already a gap between mother and child.

Empress Zhao arranged the matter and took people to the Compassionate Ning Palace.

When Queen Zhao told the matter to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother couldn't believe it, "Concubine Jing is like this?"

Queen Zhao did not continue to speak.Gong Nai hurriedly comforted and said: "The empress dowager also has a motherly heart. When she spoke for Concubine Jing, she didn't want the second prince to lose his mother at such a young age. Who knew that Concubine Jing would not repent and would do such a thing?" The next thing to do!"

The meaning is not to blame the empress dowager, the empress dowager is also a mother herself, so she has a soft heart, who knows that concubine Jing can't appreciate the painstaking efforts of the empress dowager, and even does such a thing.

"If something happens to the grandsons of the Ai family, it will be difficult for the Ai family to see the ancestors of the Xiao family even under the Nine Springs!" The Queen Mother burst into tears, "It's all the Ai family's fault! "

Empress Zhao hurriedly persuaded: "Mother, how can I blame you for this matter? Concubine Jing never changes after repeated admonitions, and all the faults are her own fault."

She couldn't say that it was because of the empress dowager's protection last time that such a disaster happened today.

After this incident happened, Empress Zhao was also very anxious. There were only five princes among the three princes, and they were about to be discounted by more than half, and there was also a prince that Empress Zhao liked, which made Empress Zhao feel distressed. very.

She could only comfort the Queen Mother dryly, and couldn't say anything else.

To be honest, she also blamed the Queen Mother in her heart. Concubine Jing did something wrong, but you insisted on protecting her. Now it's all right, something happened.

Although most people in the palace didn't know that you were the one who saved Concubine Jing, they all knew it.

Empress Zhao has a lot of things to do, after explaining, she left the Compassion Palace.

The tears on the queen mother's face were gone, but her face was very dark.

"The emperor is blaming Ai's family." The queen mother said, no one came over, so it was obvious that she was blaming herself.

The palace nurse said: "The emperor is worried about the three princes, and feels uncomfortable. He is afraid that coming here will make the empress dowager feel uncomfortable, so he didn't come here."

"Hmph, these are not reasons. He can blame it if he wants to. Aijia is his mother. How can he be really angry with his son? It's just that Concubine Jing did not expect to do such a thing."

But it's also good, it's not bad to be able to implicate Changchun Palace.

I can't believe that the Wu family is so lucky every time.

When a mother loses her child, she will either be heartbroken and devastated, or she will fight back even more frantically.

So Concubine Jing must not survive.

The Queen Mother has no compassion for Concubine Jing at all, even if the emperor blames her, she can get rid of the two princes in Changchun Palace, which is very good!

If the two, three, four and three princes all lost their lives in this incident, then the eldest prince is just the son of a court lady, and he is still sick. Even if the emperor has a new prince in the future, he will still be ranked behind the fifth prince.

The fifth prince has a greater chance of being crowned prince than other princes.

Sometimes, sacrificing a little bit of one's own interests can obtain greater interests, and such a deal is absolutely worthwhile.

So the queen mother felt that she regretted keeping Concubine Jing, but she felt that it was really right to keep Concubine Jing.

You can solve the things you want to solve without any effort, and you don't need to get your hands dirty. This kind of thing may be God's will.

Since it is God's will, then one should obey God's will.

The Queen Mother said: "The three grandchildren of Ai's family all fell ill like this. Ah Gong, if the imperial physician who treated them is free, invite them here. Ai's family must ask carefully and make sure they are well. Healed Ai's grandson."

Gong Nai said: "I will arrange it now, servant girl."

The imperial physicians who treated several princes did not need to be locked up together, but they needed to wash and change their clothes when they came out. On the side of the Changchun Palace, there was a changing room specially arranged for the imperial physicians, and there were also servants to serve them.

The Queen Mother asked these imperial physicians once, and after knowing the general situation, she didn't ask again.

After all, she is the grandmother of several princes, but if she asks, she will definitely not be able to justify it.

Even Empress Zhao had to ask about it every day. If the Queen Mother didn't ask, people would say that she didn't pay much attention to her grandson.

Li Jialuo was at the Changchun Palace, personally feeding the third and fourth princes with medicine.

"Amber, look outside, don't let anyone come in." Li Jialuo ordered.

"Master, do you really want to do that? Didn't the imperial physician say that the little master's illness can be cured?" Hu Po said worriedly.

"It can be cured, but I don't want them to encounter such a situation in the future and be infected by people with ulterior motives. This time it is chickenpox. What about next time? I originally wanted to wait for them to grow up before feeding them. Yes, but now I can't wait any longer. Take this opportunity and solve it. Go outside and watch, don't let anyone break in!"

Amber knew that once the master made up his mind, he would not change it, but if the master had to shed so much blood this time, would his body be able to bear it?

But for the sake of the little master's future safety, he had to do so.

Li Jialuo used to be afraid that the queen mother would doubt her, and the child was still young, so there was no need to worry. Who knew that something like this would happen, she was naturally sure that her child would not suffer.

But this incident may dispel the Queen Mother's concerns and doubts. After all, her child is still so easily infected with chickenpox.

Li Jialuo swiped his wrist, and the blood left along the cut and dripped into the medicine bowl.

After three or four days like this, the pox of the third prince and the fourth prince have come out, and after experiencing low fever and fever, the pox has matured.Slowly began to scab.

When the imperial doctor said that the chickenpox was over, the third and fourth princes only needed to rest for a few more days to recover from their illnesses.

And Li Jialuo's face was already very pale.

Seeing that the two children were safe, Li Jialuo went to sleep in peace.

After a few days, the third and fourth princes have recovered, and the scabs on the third prince's face are slowly falling off. Fortunately, the medicine in the palace is the best. The third and fourth princes are young, so Will leave a face full of pockmarks.

Burn all the things up and down in the Changchun Palace, everything that the third prince and the fourth prince have been in contact with, that should be burned, and then thoroughly cleaned it again.

Only then did Li Jialuo bring the third and fourth princes back to the house where they lived before.

The emperor and empress came that very day, and saw the two little princes, except for a little thinner and some scars on their faces, there was nothing wrong with them.

Empress Zhao said with a smile: "Luo'er and Yuan'er are fine now, the emperor doesn't have to worry about it anymore, just give them a good make-up."

I used to be chubby, but now I have lost a lot of weight.

The emperor nodded, thinking it should be, and seeing that the imperial concubine was also very weak, he said: "Rest well these few days, don't worry about outside things."

Li Jialuo nodded, and then said to the emperor and queen: "The concubine still has something to report."

The emperor said: "Let's rest first and then talk about other things." The noble concubine's face was very pale.How rosy it was before.

Li Jialuo said: "Your Majesty, this is very important. If you don't talk about it, the concubine will not be able to sleep."

The emperor nodded, and Li Jialuo nodded to Xiaoliuzi, and Xiaoliuzi led the people and threw a messy servant into the room.

Queen Zhao asked, "This is?"

"Rong Chenqie reported that this person is a servant of a rough envoy of the Changchun Palace. He usually does not serve in the concubine's palace at all, but when the concubine and two children are treating illnesses, this person sneaks into the tea room. , wanted to play tricks in the tea room, but was caught by the concubine, and the concubine found a pack of medicine from his arms. The concubine asked the imperial physician, and after the imperial physician examined it, he said that the medicine It is incompatible with the medicine for chickenpox. If Luo'er and Yuan'er drink this medicine, the chickenpox will most likely not be cured."

The person behind this is really very calculating. If a child has chickenpox, there is a half and half chance of being cured. This person took advantage of this unremarkable person. Wanting to put this kind of medicine into the decoction, in the end, the third and fourth princes were not cured, so they could only say that their lives were bad.

Because not all chickenpox can be cured, many children have died in this regard.

No one will doubt it.

It's just that when Li Jialuo had to take care of the two children, he told Hu Po and Xiao Liuzi that they must be optimistic about the level of boiling medicine.

On the surface, there must be someone brewing the medicine, and there must be someone hiding behind the scenes, so that the person who cooks the medicine will not feel unwell, or be distracted from the mountain, so the people behind can still watch. can catch.

It's not that Li Jialuo is too careful, she has two princes, and there are many people in the palace, she wants her two children to die.

After hearing Li Jialuo's words, the emperor said to Liu Yongquan: "Check it out and see who is so bold."

How dare you take advantage of this to cause trouble!

Liu Yongquan hadn't done anything by himself for a long time, and he knew the situation was serious.He decided to use his life's skills to make things come to a conclusion soon.

After Li Jialuo reported the matter, he felt no pressure at all.

The emperor and queen looked at the third prince and the fourth prince, and they were sure that there was no problem.

Knowing that the mother and son need a good rest, they didn't stay in Changchun Palace for too long.

But when Liu Yongquan was torturing the servant, something unexpected happened. The servant bit his tongue and killed himself!

When he was about to speak, he knew that he would not live long, so he directly bit off his tongue, making Liu Yongquan angry.

Ask the people around him to search the servant's room, but they found nothing, it was clean.

So it's not for money, what is it for?

Generally, the servants who are rough envoys have no access to the important affairs of the master, so there is no such thing as the imperial concubine mistreating the servant.

This rough servant does not have deep contact with people, and he plays well with another servant in the same room as the small table.

The little table was also very scared, he really didn't know that Li Zi, who was in the same room with him, would do such a thing.

Usually quite honest.How can such a thing be done?
The little table was taken over to question, and the small table recalled: "Xiao Lizi usually wakes up on time like everyone else, and then cleans the ground in the Changchun Palace. He never goes to other palaces. When he is free, he goes back to the house. Contact with outsiders? Doesn’t seem to be the case. He’s just a boring gourd, he basically doesn’t interact with others, and there are no people in his hometown. He has no father or mother.”

Liu Yongquan asked for a long time, but he didn't ask anything that was actually useful.

He knew what happened this time, this little Lizi must be a mole who had been arranged in advance, and he would strike when he found the opportunity.

Liu Yongquan reported what he found out to the emperor, "Your Majesty, looking at the situation, the slave feels that this servant is someone who was placed in the Changchun Palace early in the morning, and this time he just found an opportunity to do evil. In his booklet, It's clear, there is nothing involved at all, but the servant feels that the cleaner the person, the more problematic he is."

The emperor said: "I will send someone to check outside."

This thing was done by people in the palace, or by the family behind the women in the palace.

Arrange an inconspicuous servant to enter the palace and hide in the Changchun Palace. This time the third and fourth princes are sick, so they just take advantage of it.

And those who have the ability to place people in the palace are only those few things. They think they are secretive, but they don't know that the more secretive they are, the more powerful the power behind them is, and they have exposed themselves.

The emperor decided to hand over this matter to his secret guards to investigate, after all, this matter involved his two princes.

If it was a woman in the palace, he would not have used a hidden guard.

As for the noble concubine, the emperor told the noble concubine that this little plum had something to do with Concubine Jing. Because what happened last time was exposed, Concubine Jing held a grudge and bought this little plum to let him take this opportunity to do something. Hands and feet, but after all, they are just the servants of the rough envoy, and they were caught before they even made a move.

In fact, the emperor admired Li Jialuo's approach of being alone in the open and alone in the dark.In this way, not only safety can be ensured, but also the perpetrator can be caught.

Li Jialuo had nothing to say about this result.Although know that things are not that simple!
As long as it is an explanation from the emperor, she will accept it. Anyway, she will never allow others to hurt her child again.

As for Concubine Jing's matter, Li Jialuo also knew about it. The second prince's illness has not healed until now. Is this result really what Concubine Jing wants?

After the third prince and the fourth prince recovered, the second prince finally couldn't stand it because of his own frailty and died young.

After Concubine Jing heard the news, she cried and made noises, and she was a little crazy.

But no matter how crazy she is, the second prince is still no longer in this world.

Her hope in this world is gone, and the emperor also knows that she has done a 'good deed', so how can he spare her?

But even so, she still wants to live. Who can live only wants to die?
She almost killed three princes at once, can the emperor spare her?
So when she saw the poisoned wine, dagger and white silk brought by Liu Yongquan, Concubine Jing was about to go crazy.She is not yet 20 years old, how can she die?
She is the eldest daughter of the Zuo family, and she still has the Zuo family!By the way, the Zuo family, what my grandfather and father told me!She still has backhands!
