Chapter 157 Is It Bad To Live?

Concubine Xian, who had been silent all this time, said: "Let's take the two children back to comfort them first. Although the court lady is dead, you can still find out who she has been in contact with. Maybe you can find some clues."

Qi Susu nodded, "That's right, whether other people noticed anything unusual when the incident happened, they need to be carefully interrogated and verified. Don't let go of any clues, and you can always get something."

Now that things had happened, Concubine Wei also knew that this was the only way to go, she glared fiercely at the maid who had died, and asked someone to inform the emperor and queen, and then took the two children whose eyes were red from crying back to the bedroom.

In fact, there is no need for Concubine Wei to send someone to inform. Such a big event happened, and the well-informed empress has already received the news. Almost when Concubine Wei and the others returned to the front hall, the queen rushed over, followed by The emperor who received the Mandala envoys with the ministers in the imperial study.

Therefore, it was inevitable that the ministers present at the time, the Grand Prince of Ghana and others knew that the sixth prince had almost had an accident.

"Check!" The emperor looked at the two sons and daughters whose eyes were swollen from crying with distress, and said with a dark face: "Who did the maid come into contact with, and what other palace people saw at that time, and I will report any abnormalities." Check it out! Be sure to find out who is behind it!"

The queen's face was also very ugly at this time.

She has always governed the harem fairly and strictly. Occasional disputes in the harem are nothing but trivial matters, harmless, but this is the first time that she has moved her mind on the prince.

There has never been a precedent before, why did it suddenly appear this year?How is this year's harem different from previous years?It's obvious!
Ji Wutian who rushed over from the imperial study with the emperor had already heard Qi Susu's general story, and already had some guesses in his heart, and met her eyes, seeing the same suspicion in each other's eyes.

This time, perhaps it's time to draw the bottom line.

Yichun Palace.

"I heard that there was an accident in Lihua Palace. There was a court lady who wanted to murder the sixth prince. Fortunately, there was no danger, and nothing major happened." Xie Yunwan was worried, "I don't know what the maid is thinking. His Royal Highness is ruthless."

She said so, but Xie Yunwan knew in her heart that there must be someone behind the maid, but she didn't know who it was.

Will such a cruel and merciless person one day turn his mind on himself, and can he guard against it?
Qi Jinya, who was sitting next to Xie Yunwan, said: "It is said that the court lady failed to kill the sixth prince, but fell to her death. Everyone is dead. I'm afraid nothing can be found out."

Concubine Rou glanced at Qi Jinya, who seemed to be talking casually, took a sip of tea from her teacup, and said slowly: "Can you find out something? The emperor, queen, and Concubine Wei bother you. It is useless for other irrelevant people to think about it." .Although the court lady did not succeed, the sixth prince must have been frightened after all because of his young age. I, Yichun Palace, should express my condolences."

She said so on the lips, but in fact Concubine Rou frowned slightly, she couldn't help worrying in her heart.

These years, this is the first time that an accident against the emperor's heir has happened. When the purpose of the person behind the scenes is not known, it is not known whether her second prince will be implicated.

Right now Lihua Palace is full of people from the emperor and empress, so it's hard to spread the news, so it would be best if I can inquire about it while sending things to express my condolences.

Xie Yunwan was thinking about whether she should also prepare something. After all, Concubine Wei had rewarded her with things before, not to mention whether Concubine Wei would take her heart to heart, but doing nothing is easy to be caught Wrong place.

"Has the Yami people thought about what to give? I thought, our foundation is relatively weak, we don't have much precious things, and we still need to be precious. Prepare some fresh toys for the sixth prince, or eat pastries made by ourselves. It would be better, what do you think? Yami?"

Xie Yunwan yelled suspiciously several times but got no reply. Looking sideways, she realized that Qi Jinya was thinking about something, obviously distracted.

"Men Yami, you..." Before I could finish my questioning, I heard a maid beside Concubine Rou come in and report that a group of imperial guards had come, and the leader was not only the captain of the imperial guards, but also the big palace maid next to the empress. Lingyin, and Hongshang beside Concubine Wei.

Concubine Rou's complexion changed slightly, coming to her at this stall, could it be that the result of the investigation by the emperor also involved Yichun Palace?
"I have seen Concubine Rou." Lingyin and Hongshang were quite polite after seeing Concubine Rou.

Concubine Rou felt relieved after noticing it, looking at it like this, it shouldn't be aimed at herself...?
Concubine Rou regained her composure, and asked softly: "Excuse me, why are you two here?"

Among the two, the appearance of the court lady Hongshang was more aggressive, and her beautiful eyes fell on Qi Jinya's body precisely, "Hui Rou Concubine, we are ordered by the emperor and empress to ask Yamei to go and ask questions. For what reason, the Yami people are most clear in their hearts."

"Huh?" Concubine Rou's eyes flashed, and she looked at Qi Jinya in surprise. Could it be that the matter of the sixth prince has something to do with her?
Qi Jinya blinked, pretending to be calm and said: "I don't know what you're talking about, I haven't done anything."

Lingyin laughed lightly, "Hongshang only said that she was asking Yami for questioning, but didn't say what you had done. Why should Yami deny it in such a hurry?"

Xie Yunwan's expression was shocked, and he thought of something for a moment, and stared at Qi Jinya with wide eyes in disbelief, "You shouldn't..."

Concubine Rou has been paying attention to the changes in Qi Jinya's expression. After all, she is still a young girl with insufficient acting skills and concentration, and she immediately exposed her inner tension and anxiety when she was aroused by Lingyin's words.

Even if she tried her best to hide it, there were not enough people present except Xie Yunwan, who was not a human being?
Just because I saw it, I was even more frightened, even an old concubine like Roufei would inevitably look at this newcomer who had never taken it seriously before with a new look.

I can't figure out that this person who has only been in the palace for a few months has made mistakes a few times before, so how dare he move his mind on the prince?Who gave her such boldness?

In any case, no matter whether Qi Jinya wants to defend herself or not, Lingyin and Hongshang will take her to the Lihua Palace, and the process is not very polite. It is better to say that she is overwhelmed than invited. This attitude makes Concubine Rou It is even more certain that the emperor probably has the key evidence to prove that Qi Jinya is related to this matter.

But, isn't the speed too fast?It has been less than half a day since the accident of the sixth prince.

In Lihua Palace.

When Qi Jinya was brought to the main hall, he saw the emperor, the empress, concubine Wei, concubine Xian... Several people of high status in the entire Great Yin City were sitting in the main hall. The atmosphere in the hall was dignified and depressing. There is a faint storm that seems to be brewing.

Along the way, Qi Jinya kept thinking quickly about how to get rid of the crime and get rid of the suspicion, but when she really faced the empress who was full of aura and showing the courage to look at her, her body But with a shake unconsciously, those sophistry thoughts were suppressed in an instant, and his mind went blank.

But when Qi Susu's figure came into view, Qi Jinya's face and eyes instantly turned red.

this woman!Why is she here too!
Qi Susu, who completely put herself in the position of being implicated by accident and was just an innocent bystander, noticed Qi Jinyan's threatening gaze, and for some reason, she tugged at the corner of her lips and said silently, 'Yo! ', in exchange for Qi Jinya's more venomous eyes.

Qi Susu: "..." I have no idea why I was affected.

"The concubine has met the emperor, the queen, the imperial concubine, and the virtuous concubine." Qi Jinya finally suppressed her resentment towards Qi Susu, walked up to all the nobles and whispered hello, and after finishing speaking, she waited for the words of "exemption". get up.

However... not only was she not asked to stand up, but Consort Wei Guifei asked her angrily, "Say! Why did you murder the sixth prince!"

"I didn't!" Qi Jinya blurted out, but at the same time, her heart was full of surprise.

Normally at this time, shouldn't she be interrogated first and give her a chance to argue for herself?Why does Concubine Wei have the attitude of believing that she is calculating?This is not right!
"You still dare to argue!" Concubine Wei looked at Qi Jinya and wanted to tear her apart.

Qi Jinya loudly cried out for herself, "The imperial concubine and empress Mingjian, I don't know what happened, and I don't know the maid, let alone murdered the sixth prince. There must be some misunderstanding—"

"Crack!" Concubine Wei slapped the table hard, stood up with an angry face and scolded: "Shut up! Don't continue to argue! There is no misunderstanding at all!"

"Noble concubine." The emperor stroked his forehead and reminded: "I can understand your anger, but you still have to calm down and stay calm."

Concubine Wei was so angry that her chest heaved violently, and several times she had the urge to pounce on Qi Jinya and slap Qi Jinya hard, but under the emperor's reminder, she still gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger, and sat back down again.

Although the queen and the noble concubine were often ambiguous on weekdays, they could understand her mood very well at this time. Not only did they not stand on the sidelines, they also sharply pointed out Qi Jinya's language problems just now.

"Lingyin and Hongshang probably never told you what happened in Lihua Palace. It stands to reason that you don't even know which palace lady did it. If so, why do you say that you don't know each other?"

"Me!" Qi Jinya's face turned pale.

not good!Just now she panicked for a while, and even missed the most critical point.

Rather than arguing for yourself, it's better to say that you don't call yourself at all!
Qi Susu couldn't bear to look directly and turned her head: just this brain dares to plot people, why don't you live well, why do you always want to die.

The emperor said in a deep voice: "You don't have to rush to argue, since I have someone summon you, there is naturally enough evidence to prove your connection with this matter. No, it's not just today's matter."

Qi Jinya's heart skipped a beat. Facing the heavy gazes of the queen, noble concubine, and Prince Yu, the ominous premonition in her heart grew stronger.

Other, what else?Could it be... no, no, those things have obviously come to an end, no matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with her, don't panic, don't... panic.
