Empress Fenghua

Chapter 295
Wanrong rushed to Lianyi Palace in a hurry, and the anger in the palace was extremely tense.Zhao Yu stood aside with a gloomy face and drooping head, Xi Liang had a silent expression on his face, and the moment he saw Wan Rong, a trace of unhappiness flashed in his eyes.

Wanrong hurriedly stepped forward to pay her respects, "The concubine has seen the emperor!"

"Why are you here now?" Xi Liang frowned silently, "Go and see Wang Xiuyuan first!"

Wanrong walked into the inner room and lifted the quilt to see that Wang Xiuyuan's body was covered with blood seeping into the quilt.Chunzhu couldn't help taking a step back, "Madam, this..."

"I'm afraid it's really useless!" Wanrong lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, "Wang Xiuyuan had a miscarriage?"

The imperial doctor bowed his head and reported, "Mrs. Hui Wan, the prince is indeed lost. As for Wang Xiuyuan, it still depends on fate!"

Wanrong glanced at Wang Xiuyuan's hanging arm, on which a string of smooth pearls was very conspicuous.Wanrong couldn't help frowning, looking at the bat knot...

"The concubine is negligent, please forgive me!" Zhao Yu knelt on the ground, "But the concubine is really considerate of Wang Xiuyuan, everyone in the palace knows that everything Wang Xiuyuan touches and eats has been inspected, the concubine I really can't think of anything missing! Please also ask the emperor to thoroughly investigate this matter, and return my concubine's innocence."

Xiliang took a deep breath silently, "I want you to take care of Wang Xiuyuan, no matter how hard you try, but if Wang Xiuyuan's fetus is in trouble, you are responsible, understand?"

Zhao Yu clenched her fists, "The concubine understands!"

Xiliang silently glanced at the crowd, "Wang Xiuyuan's fetus is obviously stable, why do you think there is a sudden miscarriage, this seems unreasonable!"

Madam Yu frowned, "Your Majesty, Yi Chenqie thinks this matter is indeed strange. If it is true as Madam Chun said, then someone may deliberately harm Wang Xiuyuan. Since ancient times, it is not uncommon for people to fight for favor in the harem. Nong, and pregnant with children, will inevitably be the object of some people's red eyes!"

"Then who are some of the people in Mrs. Yu's population?" Wan Rong raised her eyebrows and asked, "As far as I know, Mrs. Yu is one of them even though she may not do anything!" "Where did Mrs. Wan say this?" Madam Yu sneered, "I am the fourth concubine, why bother to compete with a Xiuyuan?"

"It's a pity that she is not an ordinary Xiuyuan, she is a Xiuyuan who is pregnant with an emperor's heir!" Wanrong looked at Madam Yu coldly, "It is well known that Madam Yu is jealous. The fact that Zhao Meiren was pregnant earlier, This palace has been secretly investigating the coral bracelet that Mrs. Yu gave to Zhao Meiren, there seems to be something wrong?"

Madam Yu took a deep breath, "What nonsense are you talking about? The coral bracelet I gave to Meiren Zhao was given by the emperor, so what's the problem?"

Wanrong snorted coldly, "If there is any problem, let the imperial doctor check it out! Anyway, many people have seen the bracelet, so it is absolutely impossible to fake it. Your Majesty, my concubine requests an order to investigate the case of Meiren Zhao."

"What does the matter of Meiren Zhao have to do with Wang Xiuyuan? I'm afraid Mrs. Wan is speaking too forcefully?" Mrs. Yu looked at Wanrong angrily.

Wanrong gritted her teeth, "Because Wang Xiuyuan also wears a pearl bracelet! Although it can't prove anything, it gave me a very important revelation."

Zhao Yu turned pale with shock, and suddenly remembered Zhuo Chongrong who came to return the pearl this afternoon, "It's you!"

Zhuo Chongrong took a few steps back dejectedly, "Madam Chun, you are not a concubine!"

"It must be you!" Zhao Yu suddenly realized, "Today you came to return the pearl suddenly, and Wang Xiuyuan felt unwell at night and had a miscarriage. Who else would it be if it wasn't you?"

"Pearl Minhui checked it! Mrs. Chun would not slander me if she wanted to shirk responsibility!" Zhuo Chongrong looked at Zhao Yu angrily, and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, please make decisions for your concubines!"

"Who are you? Is there something wrong with that pearl? You just need to check it!" Zhao Yu knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, since Zhuo Chongrong wants you to make decisions for her, why don't you check the pearl bracelet?" !"

Xiliang said silently, "Go and check!"

Zhuo Chongrong's whole body was shocked and all fell into Zhao Yu's eyes, Zhao Yu sneered and gouged out Zhuo Chongrong's eyes.

After a while, the imperial doctor held the string of pearls, frowned and said, "Your Majesty, this string of pearls has been checked by the old minister, and there is no problem found!"

Madam Yu glanced at Bai Qiang, but Bai Qiang lowered her eyes and said nothing.Zhuo Chongrong also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Impossible! Apart from this pearl, there is nothing close to Wang Xiuyuan!" Zhao Yu clenched her fists.

The imperial doctor quickly said, "Madam Chun, don't worry. Although there is no problem with the pearls, there is something wrong with the string of the pearls! The string made of bats is made of golden silk, but the golden silk has no smell at all, but the old minister smelled something. If there is a vague fragrance, it seems like the broom has been infested. May I ask Mrs. Chun, does Wang Xiuyuan have licorice and almonds in his daily diet?"

Minhui hurried forward and said, "Yes, Wang Xiuyuan often makes tea with two things, but these two things are beneficial and harmless to pregnant women!"

"That's true, but if it is accompanied by turnips, it will be bad for pregnant women!" The imperial doctor frowned, "This must be the key point! But turnips have never been favored as spices, because of their light taste, some people I still don't think it smells very good, so the old minister thinks it's not a good idea to use the flower as a spice!"

"So that's the case! That day when Wang Xiuyuan was wandering in the Imperial Garden, it was Men Guiyi who tore off Wang Xiuyuan's pearl bracelet and took Wang Xiuyuan elsewhere. Today Zhuo Chongrong came to return the pearls." Zhao Yu looked at the two of them, " What the hell are you planning?"

Zhuo Chongrong knelt on the ground with a plop, "Madam Chun, you have wronged my concubine, and my concubine did not participate in these matters!"

Men Guiyi had a gloomy expression on her face, "Madam Chun, that golden silk is a precious thing, how can concubines and concubines possess it? Whoever has golden silk in the palace, and who has had rotten flowers recently, I think you can find it out!"

Wan Rong frowned and looked at Zhao Yu and Mrs. Yu, they were the fourth concubines, both had golden silk, but...

"The golden silk is only owned by Mrs. Chun and Mrs. Yu, but the two Mrs. Wuhua have also taken it recently..." Wang De frowned and said awkwardly while thinking about the record.

"This golden silk comes from Lianyi Palace. Turnips are often used to kill insects. It is not uncommon for this palace to have them!" Madam Yu frowned, "Now Bengong and Mrs. Chun both have golden silks and turnips. Could it be that they are still there? Can you explain that the two of us are joining forces?"

"This..." Wang De looked at Xiliang in embarrassment and was speechless.

Zhao Yu sneered, "The amount of golden silk is limited, and you can tell what it can be made at a glance. Minhui, bring me the bird-and-peacock skirt!"

Minhui quickly took out an exquisite peacock skirt, which was shining brightly and lifelike, "Your Majesty, all the golden silk from the Ripple Palace was used to sew this peacock skirt, and it is a blessing that it can be used, there is nothing else! "

Madam Yu knelt on the ground nervously, "Your Majesty, Zhuo Chongrong is the one who is stringing Wang Xiuyuan's hand today. Did you bring Zhuo Chongrong's golden silk to Lianyi Palace?"

"Of course not. How can a concubine have such a valuable thing? What's more, Mrs. Chun is very considerate of Wang Xiuyuan. If the concubine brings something in, she will definitely check it strictly!" Zhuo Chongrong said sharply, "This golden silk is rare, so the concubine I don't know much about it, it was given to my concubine by Banqin!"

Banqin hurriedly cried and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, Banqin doesn't know golden silk at all. It's all mixed with silk threads brought by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The slaves kept it when they saw it looks good!"

After a while of chaos, everyone couldn't find a clue.Wanrong sighed slightly, "It seems that this and the golden silk came from the palace of the two ladies?"

Qifu frowned, and Xuanxuan was about to cry, "Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say something or not!"

"But it's okay to say!" Xiliang Wuyan narrowed his eyes, revealing a trace of coldness.

Qifu kowtowed to the ground, "The emperor forgives the sin! This golden silk belongs to Madam Yu, and this concubine once saw Madam Yu make golden silk with turnip flowers in Heli Palace."

"Ridiculous!" Madam Yu was furious, "Have you ever been to Heli Palace recently, but you often go to Madam Wan's Jingxian Palace, does Madam Wan want you to slander me like this?"

Qifu cried and said, "Madam Yu, I really don't want to have a fight with you, but you don't give in to Qifu's differences, and you will humiliate Qifu if you don't like it. It shouldn't have been for many years!"

"Qifu, who else can testify to your words?" Xiliang said silently with a cold face.

Qifu looked at Bai Qiang cautiously, and Bai Qiang knelt on the ground in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, my concubine can testify!"

Madam Yu took a few steps back, "You, you guys have joined forces to deceive Bengong! It's you! It's you!"

Bai Qiang couldn't bear it and said, "Madam Yu infiltrated the golden silk with the smell of red flowers, and ordered Zhuo Chongrong to mix it with the silk thread that the Ministry of Internal Affairs wanted to give to Lianyi Palace. Because I know that now all good things are supplied to Wang Xiuyuan, so I am sure about the golden silk Can get into Wang Xiuyuan's hands! Zhuo Chongrong also got close to Wang Xiuyuan on purpose, that's why Wang Xiuyuan's pearl bracelet was broken!"

Zhuo Chongrong looked at Bai Qiang in shock, "Bai Xiuyuan, it was clearly you who gave me the pearl, and that pearl was given to me by you! It was you who said that I only wanted to get rid of Wang Xiuyuan's children, my father and Mr. Wang... "Zhuo Chongrong froze on the spot, staring at Xiliang in horror, speechless.

Xiliang jumped up without a word, "What else do you have to say? The affairs of the previous dynasty have always involved people in the harem, but I didn't expect you to be so bold as to attack the emperor's heir. What else do you have to say?" Yan looked at Mrs. Yu, "You two have an unforgivable crime!"

Madam Yu looked at Xiliang innocently and said nothing, "Your Majesty, this concubine did nothing! Someone must have framed this concubine."

"Wang De, pass on my will. Zhuo Chongrong has misbehaved and lacked in virtue. He will be imprisoned from now on and will not be released for life!" Xiliang glanced at Mrs. Yu speechlessly, and sighed, "Ms. Yu is here!" Murder the emperor's heir, put him in the dungeon, and wait to be punished!"

"Your Majesty!" Madam Yu cried, "Your Majesty, my concubine was wronged, my concubine was wronged..."
