Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 371

"Come on, it's not good, someone killed the prisoner!"

The little eunuch standing at the back suddenly yelled, and then ran out, as if frightened.

Nanny Fu was still in a daze, but was shocked by this shout and came back to her senses.

Immediately staggered and stood up, "Stop him quickly, stop talking nonsense, go!"

The eunuch who was in charge looked at the lifeless Lianxin on the ground, thinking that the emperor had got the news and would definitely return to the palace, so he didn't dare to listen to Madam Fu's instructions for a while.

In case it is true that Madam Fu killed the person who poisoned him, there must be another secret behind it, and no one can afford it if the emperor asks.

"Mommy, I'm sorry." The eunuch in charge waved his whisk, "Please invite Fumama to the next room to watch over her, so that no accidents are allowed."

"How dare you!" Mother Fu took a few steps back, "I am the head of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, the dowry of the Empress Dowager, who dares to touch me!"

"It's precisely because of the unusual relationship between Mammy and the Empress Dowager that it is necessary to be more careful and cautious. It is about the emperor's heir. Mammy should not implicate the Empress Dowager just because of her impulsiveness!" The steward frowned, and his tone was firm.

A few young eunuchs rushed up, tied Madam Fu's hands, and took them outside.

And at this moment, although the little eunuch who ran out was also caught with a few big ear blows, but he was yelling so fast that he had already been heard outside.

At that time, the eyes of the entire harem were fixed on the Department of Punishment, but it took only an incense stick of kung fu to know everything.

Nanny Fu killed the poisoned maid.

For a moment, no matter how you look at it, it looks like killing people.

When the Queen Mother got the news, she was in a bad mood.

The first thing that comes to mind is of course that Madam Fu killed Lianxin, but why did she kill Lianxin, she is the key witness, if she killed Lianxin, wouldn't she be even more innocent.

After all, Madam Fu is someone close to her, so every move will be taken as her intention by the outside world.

"Empress Dowager, what should I do? The emperor will be back soon. The move of Madam Fu will push our Compassionate Ning Palace into the pit of fire. How can the emperor misunderstand you then?"

Ji An, the eunuch in charge, had a sad expression on his face.

What he was worried about was exactly what the Queen Mother was worried about.

The news came in secretly from the British public outside, saying that the emperor has been watching closely recently, and that something happened at this juncture, wouldn't it make the emperor even more suspicious.

"Fu Ai's family to the Punishment Department." The Queen Mother frowned and stood up.

Ji An hurriedly persuaded, "How can this be, such a messy land, dirty the queen mother's shoes, why not go for the queen mother as a slave."

"No, Ai's family has to go in person and ask Fuzhi what's going on." The Queen Mother insisted.

The servants couldn't hold her back, so they had to follow suit.

As soon as the Queen Mother came out, she heard someone whispering as she passed a palace gate.

The content is nothing more than guessing that Madam Fu was ordered by the Queen Mother to kill Lianxin, so as to cover up her desire to poison the fourth prince.

This irritated the queen mother even more, so she ordered people to drag those maids down to beat the board.

When she arrived at the Punishment Department, the Queen Mother met Fu Nanny smoothly.

After all, no one dared to stop him.

"What's going on here, the good people died?" The Queen Mother's tone was full of anger.

Madam Fu hurriedly knelt down, "Back to the queen mother, the servant did not know, Lianxin said a few words to the servant, then suddenly went berserk, she strangled her own neck and did not let go, so she died."

"Ridiculous!" The Queen Mother slapped the table angrily, "Who would strangle himself to death? You still refuse to tell the truth!"

"Queen Dowager, this servant is telling the truth. This servant has been serving you since she was 12 years old. Doesn't the Queen Mother still believe in the friendship between master and servant for most of her life?"

Madam Fu looked at the Queen Mother, with a look of sadness in her eyes, and even a little bit of coolness in her heart.

Facing such eyes, the queen mother still felt a little relieved, and her tone softened.

"It's not that the Ai family suspected you, it's just that this happened suddenly, and the Ai family was also in a hurry. Once Lianxin died, the clues were broken. Now the whole palace is discussing that it was the Ai family who made you kill her because of a guilty conscience. The emperor must return to the palace immediately." Yes, it's hard to argue with Ai's family!"

The main reason is that there are not many people in the small kitchen of the Compassionate Ning Palace, so the simple matter of warming up a snack is left to Lian Xin, and there is no second person to accompany her.

So once Lianxin dies, there is really nothing to investigate.

Madam Fu went limp for a moment, "Queen Dowager, this person is really smart, now there is only one way to save the Queen Mother."

"What way?" The Queen Mother frowned.

"This slave bears the blame alone, the queen mother can just push the slave out." Madam Fu's lips turned white.

It was obvious that he was ready to die.

The Empress Dowager disagreed, "The Emperor may not believe what you say, and then you will lose your life in vain. The Ai family disagrees."

"But Empress Dowager, there is no other way right now. Once Lianxin died, the clues were cut off, but when she died, only her servants were there. As the Empress Dowager said, who would believe that Lianxin strangled herself to death? No matter how you look at it, it was slaves who killed and silenced her." , if the servants do not take the blame, and after this matter, the people behind it will not be able to rest. Wouldn't it be that the Queen Mother will be implicated, and the mother-child relationship between the Queen Mother and the Emperor will be hurt even more. At that time, Ming Zhaoyuan and the Ye family will pursue it. "

The queen mother was still hesitating, but at this moment someone came in and spread the word that the emperor and Ming Zhaoyuan had come back on horseback and had already entered the palace gate.

Madam Fu took a deep breath, and suddenly shouted outside.

"It's all slaves who made their own claims and wanted to share the empress dowager's worries, but now they have hurt the queen mother's heart. The slaves know that they deserve to die, and they have no face to live in this world."

After saying this, he got up suddenly, slammed into the corner of the table hard, thumped, and the top of his head fell down with blood.

The queen mother froze in place, not knowing what to do for a moment.

But Ji An reacted, and then shouted loudly.

"You poisonous woman, it's so easy for you to die like this. The queen mother has trusted you for many years, and never thought that you would have a wrong mind and do this, and make the queen mother sad for nothing!"

In this way, people outside got new news.

Madam Fu poisoned the fourth prince without telling the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother's righteousness has already made Madam Fu apologise.

When Ning Chen and Ye Yun arrived, they heard such a version.

It's just that the two still don't care about this much at the moment, so they hurried to see the child first.

It was late at night, and the fourth prince had already fallen asleep, but he frowned in his sleep, which showed that he was not sleeping peacefully.

"Don't worry, Zhaoyuan, the fourth prince has drank the calming soup prepared by Imperial Physician Shen before going to bed, so he won't have nightmares, but after all, if he is scared during the day, he should take it easy." Huiyue said.

Ye Yun nodded, leaned over and kissed the child's forehead.

Feeling the temperature of the child, a heart really let go.

The fourth prince slept in Hui Zhaoyuan Palace, and it was difficult to move at night. Ye Yun came out with Ning Chen after seeing the child.

Just happened to be invited away by the Queen Mother's people.
