"It's too deliberate, so there is no evidence, and my suspicion is not small. ”

Why did the queen do this, this is what Yan Xi wants to know now, what did the fourth prince say to the queen at the beginning, so that she targeted Xiao Jiu like this?

Looking at the appearance of the sixth prince, I am afraid that he also knows the inside story.

"Then do you still need to investigate this matter?" Mo Yi didn't have a clue now, as long as he asked truthfully.

Yanxi was silent, he was thinking about the whole thing......

At this time, in the imperial study of the palace, Zhou Yang was also replying to the matter.

"In the dry well of the cold palace, a female corpse was salvaged, and after the examination of the imperial doctor, the woman should have been infected with smallpox in front of her. ”

Zhou Yang didn't dare to look at Emperor Qian's face, and continued: "Weichen has already checked before he came, the palace maid who was infected with smallpox and the palace maid who collided with Mrs. Yan were not on duty together, and even, the two of them did not know each other. ”

"The palace maid is infected with smallpox, but the people have gone to the dry well of the cold palace, and the people in the internal affairs office can't die?"

Zhou Yang didn't dare to say anything, during the period of the first emperor, the cold palace was still somewhat useful, but after Emperor Qiandi succeeded to the throne, the cold palace was just a decoration, it was an empty palace, that dry well, many people died, if it wasn't for the cold palace, he wouldn't have thought about going to the dry well to take a look, but he didn't expect to really find a clue, but this clue is poisonous.

There is a source of disease in the palace, who knows how many people will be infected?

"Since she is infected with smallpox, I am afraid that the people in the same room will not be spared, so control the people, as well as the people she usually comes into contact with, one by one, and let the imperial doctor check ......"

There are thousands of slaves and masters in the palace, and once a disease like smallpox is infected, it will be like a weed in spring, and it will not be burned out.

"Yes. ”

Zhou Yang complained bitterly in his heart, although he hadn't touched the corpse before, he was very close, although he quickly bathed and changed his clothes, but who knows if he would also be infected with smallpox because of this?

And I have been facing saints a lot recently, and I feel terrified when I think about it.

Although the news that someone in the palace was infected with smallpox has not yet spread, looking at the actions of the forbidden army, everyone has a bad conjecture in their hearts, and they have stayed in their respective palaces honestly recently, and they will not leave the palace easily.

Even the palace people below will no longer be in the mood to gossip, and after finishing the work in hand, they will stay in the house, and they will not dare to go out easily.

Although the news was blocked, it was not hidden from Yanxi.

After Yan Xi found out, he didn't say anything, he went to court as usual every day, and talked to Xiao Jiu through the door after returning home.

Because of the acne, I can't cover the chickenpox, Xiao Jiu's mother and son are dressed very coolly, and they are afraid that Brother An'er's little hands will touch the chickenpox, so they can't leave anyone around them at all, and they have to wash their bodies with warm water every day to keep them clean, and during this period, the mother and son have also been having a fever.

Xiao Jiu can still bear it, but Brother An is always crying, but Xiao Jiu can only watch and can't do anything, and finally understands what it means to "hit the son's body and hurt the mother's body".

The road court sentenced to come every day, and on the seventh day of Xiao Jiu'an's pox, some of them had begun to scab, and finally there were signs of healing, and Xiao Jiuxi almost cried.

"Brother An'er is in good health, she takes care of her carefully, and there are no complications, so Mrs. Yan can rest assured. The Lu Yuan sentenced Xiao Jiu, who had red eyes.

Xiao Jiu nodded, and then listened to the judgment of the road court: "In another three or four days, it is estimated that everything will be fine, and you must be more careful at this time, if you don't pay attention, it is easy to get infected and leave scars, and you can't take it lightly." ”

Xiao Jiuyi responded one by one.

Lu Yuan judged the door of the room, and talked to Yan Xi again, but saw that there were tears in his eyes, sighed, and said in his heart, no wonder Yan Xi was so angry, he didn't have many relatives, but now he has a wife and children, but he flew into trouble, almost broke up this warm home, and called someone else, I'm afraid I can't accept it.

What's more, Yanxi is a poor child who has no father and mother since he was a child, and he values his wife and children the most.

**

The palace was full of action, although there was no news out, but the news that someone was infected with smallpox, but it was like having wings, and the ministers went to the court every day, and they felt frightened, and they didn't know which of these people in the palace was infected with smallpox, and it would not be transmitted to them, and people were panicked for a while.

Emperor Qiandi is in a bad mood these days, and his temper is even worse, he has no time to go to the harem for a turn, and the concubines don't dare to touch their heads at this time.

It's just that the queen is the master of the middle palace, and if something like this happens in the palace, although she is not primarily responsible, she can't escape the crime of negligence.

As soon as the rumors came out, the queen took measures to suppress it, and went to Emperor Qiandi in person to ask for guilt, with a full posture.

"It was the concubine who did not manage the harem well, so that the dirty thing was brought in, and Mrs. Yan was infected with smallpox, and now the three of them have become tigers, and the concubine has the emperor's grace, please punish Your Majesty. ”

The queen bowed down and bowed, and she blamed herself, and if she changed others, she would believe in the queen's sincerity.

It's just that in the matter of the four princes, the shadow of the queen was faintly detected, which greatly reduced Emperor Qian's trust in the queen.

The four princes have been targeting Xiao Jiu, and this time the matter is also aimed at Xiao Jiu, which makes Emperor Qian have to doubt the queen, in this huge harem, in addition to the queen can do it so unknowingly, who else would have such means?

"Queen, I have always trusted you, and you have always managed this harem in an orderly manner. Emperor Qian didn't call out, just looked at the queen, and said lightly: "In the past, it may be that the fourth child was superb, which made him install a lot of eyeliner in the palace, always pay attention to my movements, and even stretched out his hand to Lu Meng's body, so that I planted a big heel!"

"Now, without the fourth child, there is still eyeliner, and without the protection of the master, how can these people evade the search of the forbidden army and bring smallpox into the palace?"

The queen did not panic in the slightest, "The concubines don't know." ”

"Yes, you didn't see it, so you didn't know. Emperor Qiandi sighed and said: "The palace maid who was infected with smallpox and threw it in a dry well is said to have been dead for several days, why is it that no one in the palace is missing now, and she has not even reported it to the Internal Affairs Office?"

This is always the queen's mistake.

"It's the concubines who are not strict. ”

Emperor Qiandi squinted slightly, "I have been married to you for decades, and now I realize that I have never understood you." ”

This is a serious statement.

The queen's heart trembled, and she replied calmly: "The same is true for the concubines. ”

Closest relatives and estranged couples, who should be intimate couples, are actually so estranged.

Emperor Qian's eyebrows and eyes suddenly sharpened, and he fell coldly on the queen, and asked in a cold voice: "Even if you don't understand me, you should also know how much I value Yanxi, you know that this is so, but you still target Xiao Jiu, the queen, you are too disappointing to me." ”
