"Hurry up and take the imperial grandson to Zhenghe Palace, and go to the imperial doctor!"

The Empress Zhao in front of her is more than forty years old, with a phoenix crown and a purple robe, graceful and luxurious, although there are some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and lips, but fortunately, the overall maintenance is in place, and she can vaguely get a glimpse of the youth and beauty of her girlhood.

She was frowning at the moment, looking at Cheng Jinzhi with a stern expression, as if she had already decided that she was the culprit who caused the young man to fall into the water.

"Fish her up for Hongu. ”

"Golden Branch!"

was shocked to learn that the matter of the emperor's grandson falling into the water was related to Cheng Jinzhi, and Gao Heng and Concubine Hui immediately rushed to hear the news. Gao Heng didn't care about saluting the queen, so he took the lead in rushing to the shore to help Cheng Jinzhi, who had been shivering from the lake, wiped the water stains on her face with her sleeves, and took her into her arms, and then instructed the maidservant on the side: "Go and pick up the shawl." ”

Feeling a warm warmth on his body, Cheng Jinzhi looked up at Gao Heng who was full of worry, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, his pale lips trembled slightly, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

"It's fine. ”

Gao Heng wrapped the shawl sent by the maidservant around Cheng Jinzhi's body, and the warm breeze in her cold eyes made her feel at ease.

"It turns out that Heng'er is also in the palace, so she came to visit your mother, right?"

Empress Zhao stepped forward unhurriedly and glanced at Concubine Hui, who was lowering her eyebrows, and stopped her gaze on Cheng Jinzhi in Gao Heng's arms and smiled faintly.

"You are so nervous about this woman, if this palace is not mistaken, she must be Lord Cheng's youngest daughter, your newly married princess. ”

The son asked the queen mother to say goodbye, Gao Heng bowed slightly and bowed to Queen Zhao, but his tone was as cold as ice, "I don't know what Jin Zhi has done, and I want to bother the queen mother to go out in person?"

"Heng'er, although some words are not good, some people have seen with their own eyes that it was your princess who pushed my grandson into the lake. Empress Zhao's eyes were cold, and she said in a fierce tone, "As we all know, killing the royal heirs is a great crime that can punish the nine clans, you say this matter, how should this palace deal with it?"

"I didn't push him, I didn't!"

The chill on her body has not dissipated, seeing that she was charged with such a serious crime for no reason, Cheng Jinzhi was shocked, and the whole person was very excited, if it wasn't for Gao Heng to stop her in time, she would have rushed to the queen regardless of etiquette.

Although the boy fell into the water, there was indeed a part of his own reasons, but the cause and effect was due to his own naughty and naughty. Moreover, Cheng Jinzhi has already tried his best to save the groundwater, and now he is slandered and deliberately done it, which really makes her indignant.

"Princess Yan is pure and kind by nature, she will never do such a vicious and rebellious thing, and please ask the queen to learn clearly. ”

Concubine Hui stepped forward in a sincere tone to make a commitment, and a hint of severity appeared in the corners of her eyes, making Cheng Jinzhi realize that the situation was serious.

"Pure and good by nature?" Empress Zhao snorted coldly with a smile and walked around to Concubine Hui's side, "This person looks like a harmless white lotus flower on the surface, but in fact she is the most pretending to be the best, and she knows exactly what she is thinking behind her back." Concubine Hui, did you say?"

Cheng Jinzhi glared at Empress Zhao fiercely when he heard this, knowing that she would not give up easily, and complained in his heart that he should not be entangled with the young man to cause trouble, and he also affected Concubine Hui and Gao Heng for no reason.

However, Concubine Hui has been in the palace for many years, and she has long been accustomed to these open and secret cynicisms of Queen Zhao, and she has long practiced a posture of pampering and not being shocked, she gently signaled to Cheng Jinzhi not to be impulsive, and did not have any displeasure at all because of Queen Zhao's words.

"The queen mother said that someone saw the princess push the princess into the lake, so dare to ask where that person is now?"

Gao Heng looked at Empress Zhao expressionlessly, although her face gave her a little thin face, but her eyes were already cold.

"Purple smoke. ”

"The slave is here. ”

Empress Zhao called to the rear, only to see the palace maid who had just pointed out Cheng Jinzhi and walked out.

"Tell His Royal Highness King Yan that when the imperial grandson fell into the water, you saw something. ”

Ziyan bowed to Gao Heng, but he never dared to look up, but lowered his head and said: "Back to Your Highness, the slaves and maids originally accompanied the imperial grandson to play football in the Yeqi Pavilion, but the imperial grandson ran away because of a moment of fun, and the slaves and maids were worried and went separately to find them. The slave maid searched all the way to the Qixia Bridge, and the clinker... Clinker happened to see the princess and the princess on the bridge, and the princess seemed to be very angry, and pushed the princess into the lake with force, frightening the slaves and maids. ”

"You're talking nonsense!" Cheng Jinzhi interrupted her when he heard this, "My hand has never touched him from beginning to end, how did I push him into the lake?"

Gao Heng raised his hand to stop Cheng Jinzhi, walked up to Ziyan and asked, "How did the imperial grandson stand at that time?"

Ziyan was stunned for a moment, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly replied: "The slave remembers that he stood with his back to the center of the lake and leaning against the bridge. ”

"You're lying, he was sitting on the railing of the stone bridge, not standing at all. ”

Cheng Jinzhi didn't understand that she and this palace maid named Ziyan met for the first time today, and she had neither hatred nor resentment before, why did she splash dirty water with her conscience, until she caught a glimpse of the blame for Ziyan on Empress Zhao's face, she suddenly realized, and her mood became more and more heavy.

Empress Zhao hated Concubine Hui's mother and son, and today she was finally able to make a big fuss about this matter, how could she show mercy?

"Slave... The slave did see that the imperial grandson was standing against the bridge railing, and the slave and maid did not lie!"

Ziyan's eyes flickered towards Empress Zhao, as if seeking instructions, but Gao Heng had already taken the lead in blocking her vision.

"Okay, this king will tell you the truth, the imperial grandson is indeed standing against the bridge. Then can you demonstrate now, how did the princess push it at that time?"

"Heng'er, do you not believe what Ziyan said, or do you think that this palace is slandering Princess Yan?"

Empress Zhao saw Gao Heng's endless questions, each question was to the point, she was worried that Ziyan's lie would be exposed, so she could only interrupt in a hurry.

How could Gao Heng not understand Empress Zhao's thoughts at this time? He raised his chin slightly to look at the queen, and his expression was sharp: "The queen mother also said that killing the royal heir is a big crime, if I don't ask clearly, let Jin Zhi be unjustly wronged, wouldn't it be cheaper for those with sinister intentions?"

After finishing speaking, regardless of Queen Zhao's anger, she said coldly to Ziyan: "Did you hear that? ”

Ziyan was obviously shocked by Gao Heng's majesty, and in a nervous state, he could only raise his hands rustically and make a movement similar to pushing the door hard.

"Are you sure the princess pushed it that way?"

"Yes, slave and maid sure. ”

Although Zi Yan replied in the affirmative, cold sweat was already oozing from his forehead.

"You slave is so bold, you dare to deceive the queen!"

Gao Heng suddenly shouted loudly, causing Ziyan to fall to his knees in fright.

"Slaves don't dare, slaves don't dare!"

"This king had just met the imperial grandson a few days ago, and he clearly remembered that he was less than four feet tall, and if he stood against the railing, he would be on the same level as the railing of the stone. Unless someone picks him up and throws him into the lake, or the bridge railing collapses, it is impossible to push him into the lake like you!"

As soon as Gao Heng said this, Empress Zhao's eyes trembled slightly, and her face instantly became gloomy. Concubine Hui, who was worried on the side, put her hand on Cheng Jinzhi's hand, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

However, a wave of unsettled waves rose again, and at this moment, a little eunuch suddenly ran all the way from the direction of Zhenghe Palace in a panic.

I saw him kneeling down in front of Empress Zhao and said in a trembling voice: "The queen mother is not good! The imperial doctor said that the imperial grandson was drowning too deep and his heart and lungs were damaged, and now he is unconscious, and he is afraid that his life is in danger!"
