Concubine Yu hurriedly said again: "But Cui Guiren has no grievances with the fifth elder brother, there is no need for her to harm the fifth elder brother!"

Of course, Cui's has no reason to harm the fifth elder brother, not to mention that she is still grounded, how can she do such a thing that harms others and herself?

Concubine Xian also fell silent, and looked at Concubine Yu suspiciously, Cui's ...... If she said that she did it, Concubine Xian naturally didn't believe it very much, so she asked Concubine Yu: "What you said is true?"

Concubine Yu hurriedly nodded, "How dare the concubines deceive the monarch? What's more, the gifts and gifts of the concubines are all registered, and it will be clear when you check them! If the emperor still doesn't believe it, you can ask Cui Guiren!"

The queen listened quietly, but a trace of coldness suddenly slipped in her eyes, and she said with a straight face: "Concubine Yu will not deceive the king, let alone tell this kind of lie that will be exposed after a check." ”

The queen was so outspoken and supportive, and Yu Concubine, a good old man, couldn't help but feel relieved. But immediately afterwards, the queen asked: "Concubine Yu, this palace heard that after the Cui family was grounded, she once begged you and wanted you to speak for her in front of the emperor." Is that the case?"

Concubine Yu was stunned for a moment, she couldn't understand why the queen suddenly asked this, so she nodded confusedly, "But there is such a thing." ”

The queen couldn't help but sneer, "But you refused, right?"

Concubine Yu nodded again, she was just an old concubine who had fallen out of favor, no matter whether the Cui family was wronged or not, it was a matter of murdering the emperor's heir, where did Concubine Yu dare to say more? Thinking that more is better than less, she politely refused.

Seeing this, the queen said with a straight face: "In this way, the Cui family hates Yu Concubine because of this, and intends to poison Yu Concubine, it is very possible!"

Concubine Yu's face was shocked. I couldn't help but murmur in my mouth: "This ...... Isn't that going to be?"

Hao Ming couldn't help but sneer secretly, of course not! Just because Concubine Yu didn't speak for her, the Cui family was going to poison the main mother? The queen hated Cui's betrayal very much, and now that she has the opportunity to put her to death, the queen naturally does not hesitate to step on it!!

Hao Ming didn't care about Cui's life or death, but he didn't want the queen to succeed because of this, and looked at the unconcealable suspicion on the emperor's face, so he said quietly: "There are not many daffodils cultivated in the flower house this year, so I guess they didn't send it to the side hall of Qixiang Palace where Cui Guiren lives, right?"

The people in the palace are the most snobbish. What's more, the flowers and trees cultivated in the flower room are not concubines, so naturally they will not be dedicated to Cui's nobleman who has fallen out of favor in vain.

When Concubine Yu heard this, she nodded busily. "Yes! Concubine Shu Niangniang guessed well! Not only did Cui's side hall not send daffodils, but the entire Qixiang Palace never sent a pot of daffodils! Cui Guiren has been grounded all the time, how could it be possible to get daffodils poisoned into Ejiao?!"

The queen's face was a little gloomy, and she snorted softly: "There are no narcissus in Qixiang Palace. If you can't keep it, you got it from somewhere else! But the palace maids and eunuchs who served her have not been grounded! Now that many of the palace daffodils have been defeated, they will naturally be thrown out and picked up and used, and it is unknown!"

Hao Ming smiled and said, "What the queen said is very true, but in this way, anyone in the palace may get Narcissus, right?"

The queen snorted lightly: "Concubine Shu didn't forget, that poisonous ejiao, but the Cui family gave it to Concubine Yu!"

Hao Ming asked: "Then where did Cui's Ejiao come from?" - Ejiao is a precious tonic. It's also not something in the concubine's share.

The queen frowned.

Concubine Yu hurriedly replied, "It seems to be...... After Cui Guiren had a miscarriage before, the emperor rewarded a lot. She never finished it. ”

When the queen heard this, she couldn't help but smile, "Naturally, there will be no problem with the things rewarded by the emperor! Obviously, Ejiao was poisoned by the Cui family, and then it was given to Yu Concubine! In this case, if it wasn't the Cui family who poisoned it, who else would ?!!?"

Bo Ming lowered his head and was silent, it seemed that he was indeed poisoned in Cui's link. Naturally, Cui became the biggest suspect. But the question is, who wants to frame the Cui family? If there is a grudge against the Cui family, it is naturally only the queen...... and concubines.

Of course, the queen also longs for Cui's death to have no place to be buried, but the queen is not what it used to be, and she does not dare to act rashly, she doesn't even dare to start with the belly of the concubine, let alone the fifth elder brother?

Therefore, the only possibility is to have a concubine.

If the fifth elder brother dies, who will benefit the most? Of course, it will be the concubine! She is pregnant, and if she gets a child in one fell swoop, then the only person who can compete with her son for the storage position is the fifth elder brother!

There was a long silence in the temple.

The emperor exhaled deeply, and then asked Concubine Yu: "Is the ejiao that Cui's gave you available?"

Concubine Yu hurriedly shook her head and said, "There is still most of it left." ”

The emperor turned his face and instructed Wang Qin: "Go and fetch it and hand it over to the imperial doctor for examination." In addition—" The Emperor's face turned cold, "Go and pass on the Cui clan to me!!"

"Huh!"

Poor Cui Guiren was still ignorant at the moment, she came to Jingren Palace with thin clothes, and looked at the unusually solemn atmosphere in the hall, she felt panicked in her heart, and involuntarily knelt down.

The emperor's cold eyes swept over Cui's panicked face, and his heart couldn't help but be more resolute, and his face became more gloomy and terrifying, "Half a month ago, but you gave Concubine Yu a box of Ejiao?!"

Cui Guiren didn't know why the emperor was for this "trivial matter", but she didn't dare not answer the emperor's words, and hurriedly nodded, "In winter, Concubine Yu Niangniang coughed a few times, and Ejiao can moisten the lungs, so the concubine took the Ejiao stored in the library and gave Concubine Yu a box." Cui's just wants to please Yu Concubine, in the hope that she can say a few good words for herself! Cui Shi doesn't know that Yu Concubine has fallen out of favor, but Yu Concubine is so good that the emperor values it, if Yu Concubine is willing to say a few good words, it will be useful if she can't keep it!

At this time, the imperial physician stepped forward with the half box of Ejiao that he gave birth to and replied, "Your Majesty, there are a lot of narcissus added to this Ejiao, and it is obvious that the fifth elder brother was poisoned after taking such Ejiao cake." ”

"What??" Cui Guiren was frightened, his face turned pale, "What narcissus? What poisoning?!! what are you talking about?!"

The queen snorted angrily, "Cui's, you want to poison Concubine Yu, but you made a mistake and almost killed the fifth elder brother!!"

Cui Guiren hurriedly shook her head, and she tearfully defended: "Concubine Yu has not been!!Concubine Yu has always taken good care of the concubine, how could the concubine poison Concubine Yu Niangniang?!!

The emperor's face was extremely indifferent, and he directly ordered: "The noble Cui family, uneasy about his duties, has repeatedly murdered the emperor's heir, stripped of his position, demoted to a concubine, and placed in the cold palace!"

Leaving this oracle, the emperor walked away directly.

In the spacious and beautiful Jingren Palace, only Cui's howling voice remained, she was dragged all the way to the cold palace by the eunuchs, she also howled all the way, she poured out her wrongs hoarsely, saying that she was framed. But the emperor couldn't hear it, and as for the others, if they heard it, they didn't hear it. (To be continued.) )
