Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 279 (Seventeen) Confrontation in Front of the King, Respecting Zhi and Keeping Secrets (Part [-])
In the Qianqing Palace, Xuan Ye closed the memorial irritably. He couldn't see anything. Concubine Yi was ill again yesterday. He went to visit. Concubine Yi told her that after the empress died, all the concubines in the palace were in a bad mood. A lot of people are sick. In order to prevent tragedies from happening in the palace, the emperor should be more considerate to everyone. He was very surprised at the time. He suddenly found that he did care less about these women in the palace on weekdays. Yes, he It's time to be concerned, so yesterday he sent a message to the imperial doctor, took all the sick files of all the concubines, and asked them one by one. When Wang Jingzhi was asked, it was written that she was fine. I said that Wang Jingzhi had a hidden disease, and she also went to the imperial doctor to see it, so I had a great doubt in my heart. The question was whether Rong'er lied to her, or Wang Jingzhi lied to Rong'er, or they lied to him together. In any case, he hated it very much when someone lied to him.

The emperor's heart is sensitive, he is high above, everyone speaks good things in front of him, so he often feels insecure, he doesn't know whether these respectful courtiers are telling him the truth or lies, of course Including his concubine, all those who would deceive him always have a certain purpose, he must find out about this matter!
"Consultant!" Xuan Ye called out loudly.

"Yes, the slave is here!" The consultant who was waiting at the door rushed in after hearing the call.

"Go and pick up Concubine Jing now and bring her directly to this study!" Xuan Ye ordered.

"Your servant respects the order!" Looking at Xuan Ye's serious face, coupled with Xiaoqing's investigation today, the consultant felt vaguely that this matter might be quite serious.

Walking out of the soft sedan chair, Jingzhi calmed down her emotions, still feeling nervous in her heart, and took another deep breath, no matter what tonight, she had to pass this test, this was her fate, she couldn’t escape, stepping on the bottom of the flowerpot, Follow the consultant and walk up to the platform step by step, the surrounding is very quiet, Jingzhi seems to be able to hear her own heartbeat every step she takes.

Walking into the study room in the West Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, last year, it was changed to the South Study Room, where Xuan Ye studied. Xuan Ye sat behind the desk, his eyes fixed on Jingzhi.

"The concubine kowtowed to the emperor." Jingzhi didn't dress herself up specially, she was still dressed normally.

Xuan Ye didn't speak, just stared closely, and suddenly shouted, "Concubine Jing, you are guilty!"

"The concubine is guilty!" Hearing the emperor's question, Jing Zhi hurriedly knelt down and said.

"Oh, why are you guilty?" Xuan Ye raised his eyebrows and said.

"The emperor will not ask the concubine if he knows the crime for no reason, so the emperor must ask the concubine if he made a mistake." Jingzhi was not afraid, and replied softly.
