94. Closing the net

Zhou Yu came here to search Lingyue Palace at the behest of Chu Xue.

Seeing a group of people outside Lingyue Palace from a distance, he naturally wanted to ask, who expected that this question would save him a lot of trouble.

Seeing Zhou Yu coming, no matter how frightened Qiu Gui was, Qiu Yan was very sure in his heart, and when the person came closer, he bowed down and said: "The chief manager came just in time, there is such a thing, the little ones are just passing by here, and they saw someone sneakily sneaking out of this Lingyue Palace, and the little ones thought it was a thief, so they came up to stop it, who would have thought that it was Aunt Qiu Gui of Fengyi Palace." It's still strange to be small, you said that Aunt Qiu Gui didn't serve the queen in Fengyi Palace, but this big night came to Lingyue Palace, who knew there was something even stranger......"

Qiu Yan handed over the cloth bag in his hand and said, "Look, Aunt Qiu Gui came out of Lingyue Palace, and she still had this kind of thing on her body, and she didn't speak when she asked her, I guess it was a small and lowly status, this matter, please call the shots." ”

Zhou Yu took the cloth bag and opened it, and the strong smell of medicine entered his nose, and then the light of the lantern, the medicine residue was still hot in the cold air......

Zhou Yu naturally knew that Qiu Yan was helping Yufu Palace to do things, and when things came to this point, Mo said that he was not from Fengyi Palace, even if it was, with such conclusive evidence in front of him, I am afraid it would be difficult to help him. I sighed in my heart that this errand was easy, but it was getting more and more tricky...... Zhou Da said: "Miss Qiugui, take the trouble to go with our family." ”

Seeing that Qiu Gui still didn't speak, Zhou Yu sighed, signaled his subordinates to take people away first, and personally returned to Yufu Palace with the evidence.

~~

Hurry up, go back and forth for an hour, Fugui, who was sent to Jingtian Temple outside the palace to ask for orders, hurried back to Yufu Palace and came to the master to resume his life.

Although Chu Xue had just lost her child, because of the mild nature of the medicine she had taken before, Cheng Zisong and Ruyue were well prepared, and they were not too weak at this time, seeing him come back, Chu Xue asked, "What did the Queen Mother say?" ”

Fugui's answer made her feel at ease, and Fugui said: "Back to the master, the Queen Mother was very anxious when she heard about it, and decided to return to the palace in person, or she would be able to arrive in less than half an hour." ”

Chu Xue smiled faintly and said, "That's good." I'll go to Fengyi Palace later, and I'll sing to this point, don't ask her to come and see how she can do it! ”

Fugui hung his head, didn't dare to disturb the master too much, and retreated silently.

Chu Xue temporarily closed her eyes and rested. When everyone arrived, she would have to make some effort, and now it was time to take a break.

~~

There has been no definite news from Yufu Palace, and Qiu Gui has not come back for a long time after going out, although Xu Jinhe has been sitting in his palace, his heart has begun to panic.

Suddenly, a palace maid came in to ask for her life, bowed down and said: "Yu Niangniang, the head of Yufu Palace came to ask for a meeting, saying that Concubine Li Niangniang broke into Yufu Palace at night and injured Yi Guifei, Yi Guifei is now seriously ill and bedridden, and I want you to go and support justice." ”

Xu Jinhe was surprised and suddenly felt annoyed, and said angrily: "How to go to this palace when you are sick, this kind of thing also comes in to report, just go back in one bite?" ”

She is now calling herself sick and escaping the world, if she goes out at this time, wouldn't it be easy for people to see the clues?

But I saw the palace maid whispering: "Niangniang, the slave and maid also said the same, but someone came to say that the queen mother has returned to the palace, please be sure to go." ”

"What?"

Xu Jinhe was really shocked.

The Queen Mother has returned to the palace? The Queen Mother knew about this so quickly and came back so soon?

At this moment, Xu Jinhe suddenly realized a very strict question, could it be that the Queen Mother also knew that the slut was pregnant?

She pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized that this guess was actually very likely. Song Chen is not in the palace, if Chu Xue wants to use pregnancy to regain favor, she should report to the Queen Mother first, after all, the emperor is not there, the Queen Mother is the most powerful person in this palace, and she is pregnant with the Queen Mother's own grandson, and the Queen Mother will definitely pay attention to it.

But the problem is that she remembered that when she asked before, the Queen Mother didn't know!

suddenly had a bold guess in her heart, could it be that the Queen Mother had already known that she was deliberately hiding herself at that time?

But why did the Queen Mother hide herself?

Xu Jinhe finally vaguely guessed a fact that made him very uneasy, the Queen Mother probably had already guessed that she would attack Chu Xue, so she was guarding against her at that time.

Realizing this, Queen Xu suddenly felt a chill in her back.

If you want to keep your position in the harem, in addition to the power of your son and mother's family, what remains is the trust of your husband and mother-in-law. She has carefully disguised herself for so many years, thinking that she has always been a good wife and filial wife in the hearts of her husband and mother-in-law, but since when did she start to be a good wife and a filial woman, and she is no longer trusted?

can not be allowed to go on in detail, Lilac admonished on the side: "Niangniang, there is such a big thing in Yufu Palace, the Queen Mother is coming back, you should still go over, otherwise, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will ......"

Xu Jinhe has also come to her senses at this time, no matter when the Queen Mother does not trust her, but now she urgently needs to save her image. This time, fortunately, there is Concubine Li, who carries the black pot, and she has been calling her sick, and the Lu Xuan next to Concubine Li is also her own person, thinking that she should not be able to do anything, Queen Xu said: "Serve the palace to change clothes!" ”

The palace maids in the palace responded and immediately got busy for her.

Two quarters of an hour later, the Empress's Luan finally arrived outside Yufu Palace.

Yufu Palace was still tightly closed the palace door, Xu Jinhe saw this and sneered coldly in his heart, and was about to send someone to call the door, when he saw a carriage coming from the opposite side from a distance.

The carriage came to the front in the blink of an eye, and Xu Jinhe immediately recognized that this was the queen mother's royal driver. Sure enough, when the car stopped steadily, I saw the Queen Mother's female official Ning Yuan coming down first, and then reached out to lift the curtain, and the Queen Mother came out of the car and stood firmly in front of her.

Seeing that a good grandson is gone, the queen mother's face is extremely ugly, and she rushed from Jingtian Temple overnight, and she saw that she was anxious in her heart, Xu Jinhe knew that it was not good to say much at this time, but she couldn't be cold, so she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and said: "The daughter-in-law asks the queen mother to say goodbye." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at her hurriedly and walked towards the gate of Yufu Palace.

Hearing the arrival of the Queen Mother, the palace door that had been closed in Yufu Palace finally opened, and Ning Yuan hurriedly helped the Queen Mother to step in, and Xu Jinhe followed closely behind.

There is still a strong smell of blood in the hall, and the Queen Mother frowned tightly, how can such a situation ever be familiar?

She was the same that year, full of anticipation for the arrival of the child in her womb, but she was still cut off by life, even though it was only a daughter, but someone refused to give her a way out...... The old past hit, the queen mother's heart suddenly tingled, after many years, the current situation is so the same, and now the person who has passed away is her little imperial grandson, he is only two months, it is unknown whether it is a man or a woman, and the son who is fighting abroad entrusts their mother and son to himself, but he has only been away for a few days, and such a big thing happened.

Ignoring the people kneeling together, the Queen Mother came straight to Chu Xue's bed.

"Master, master? The Queen Mother returned to the palace. ”

Like the moon, Chu Xue is lightly called.

I saw Chu Xue slowly open her eyes and see the face of the Queen Mother clearly, and then she choked up with tears: "Queen Mother, you are back." The concubine is incompetent, and she still failed to save the child in her womb, which disappointed you and the emperor......"

Sighing heavily, the Queen Mother reassured: "I don't blame you for this matter, it's because the mourning family didn't think it through, and you shouldn't be left alone in the palace." ”

"Should I leave you alone in the palace?"

Hearing this, Xu Jinhe behind him suddenly trembled, the Queen Mother really knew, and listening to her tone, she was indeed guarding against someone.

And this person, apart from himself, is there any other possibility?

She was chilling, and she only heard the Queen Mother ask Cheng Zisong, who was waiting on the side, "How is Concubine Yi in health now?" Is there any hope for the child? ”

Cheng Zisong immediately knelt down and replied rigorously: "Please condemn the Queen Mother, the medicine that Guifei Niangniang was poured was too fierce, and the fetus was delivered an hour ago. ”

The palace maids behind the queen mother were all stunned, and Cheng Zisong said that not only the fetus had already been delivered, but even the life of the concubine was in danger...... Everyone sighed at Concubine Li's viciousness.

The Queen Mother didn't think so, when she heard that her little imperial grandson was killed so quickly, her heart was full of anger, and she asked, "Where is Concubine Li?" ”

Fugui hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, Concubine Li has not left since she committed suicide, and now she is waiting for the decree." ”

"Bring someone here."

The Queen Mother commanded with an iron face.

After appeasing Chu Xue a few more words, the Queen Mother went to the main hall.

Xu Jinhe, who had never had time to speak, felt that when the Queen Mother turned around, she seemed to glance at herself fiercely.

It is obvious that Concubine Li is the murderer, and now the Queen Mother is unhappy with herself, she should be angry, and there is no evidence, even if the Queen Mother doubts it again, she only needs to stand in Chu Xue's position and say a few words later, and when the Queen Mother is angry, she will be safe.

Xu Jinhe comforted himself in his heart, and followed the Queen Mother's footsteps to the outer hall.

Seeing her leave, a sneer appeared on Chu Xue's pale face, and then she sunk her head into the soft pillow, waiting for the good show in the outer hall.

The main hall of Yufu Palace.

Concubine Li was brought up.

Tonight's things are too weird, since she entered Yufu Palace, she has been unexpected, locked up in the side hall for so long, especially after talking to Zhou Yu, Concubine Li thought about it herself, and felt that things were terrible.

Zhou Yu kept saying that Concubine Yi was pregnant with a dragon fetus, but the queen clearly said that what she had in her womb was an unsightly fetus!

Who is telling the truth?

And the most important thing is that she obviously hasn't injected Chu Xue with any medicine, why did Chu Xue suddenly have a miscarriage......

A terrifying thought came to her heart, could it be that Chu Xue knew that she would come, this was the game she had set up? What is the matter with the queen, does the queen know about it?

For the first time, Concubine Li felt deep fear and loneliness, and it was only now that she realized that she was so pitiful in this foreign land far from her homeland.

Seeing the Queen Mother at this time, it was like seeing a savior, Concubine Li knelt in front of the Queen Mother, more attentive than ever before, she cried desperately: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, please believe in the concubine, the concubine did not pour any medicine into Yi Guifei, Yi Guifei had a miscarriage, and it really has nothing to do with the concubine!" ”

Without the queen mother to speak, the female official Ning Yuan said: "Concubine Li, in this situation, you don't have to quibble anymore, not to mention that there are palace people in the palace of Yufu Palace to testify, even the people you brought yourself have already been recruited, you came with medicine, after entering the palace, Concubine Yi had a miscarriage, the facts are in front of you, you didn't do it, who else could there be?" ”

"It's Concubine Yi herself, she did it herself, the concubine is innocent!" Concubine Li's crying flowers trembled, trying her best to make the Queen Mother believe in herself.

But the Queen Mother said angrily: "Until now, I dare to quibble in front of the mourning family!" Tell me, why did Concubine Yi kill her child? If you are innocent, why did everyone in the palace see you bring medicine with their own eyes? ”

The queen mother, who has always been kind, is now angry like this, and the people in the hall are so frightened that they don't even dare to come out, Xu Jinhe knew that he really couldn't be silent, so he hurriedly came out and persuaded: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, you quickly dissipate your anger, don't be angry......"

Pale comforted the Queen Mother a few words, she turned her head to Concubine Li and said, "Concubine Li, you are too much today, how can you hide such a thing from this palace!" Although Concubine Yi's pregnancy is a bit secretive, you are too bold! This is not your Jinli, you can do it by you! ”

Others didn't believe that they were still excusable, but Xu Jinhe was able to say such a thing now, which surprised Concubine Li and made her even more angry, she instantly put away her tears and said angrily: "Queen Mother, how can you say such a thing?" Obviously, you said it yourself, Concubine Yi is pregnant with a son, and the concubine was originally to share your worries, but now you are actually ......"

"Concubine Li, don't spew blood! The queen mother is in poor health, has been bedridden for many days, today I heard that something big happened to force your body to come, you did it yourself, why did you want to frame the queen mother? ”

Qiu Gui was not there, and Lilac could only go out at this time, afraid that Concubine Li's statement would make the Queen Mother suspicious, so she hurriedly left her master to stop her.

"You, you ......" Seeing the shameless faces of the queen's master and servant for the first time, Concubine Li was so angry that she wanted to rush up and slap the two of them a few times.

Chu Xue in the inner hall quietly listened to the quarrel outside and sneered softly.

I didn't want to see this arrogant woman crying and quibbling, the Queen Mother said angrily: "Come on, Concubine Li is guilty of mutilating the emperor's heir, and she will be sent to the cold palace immediately!" ”

"Yes"

Immediately, a eunuch entered the palace and wanted to drag Concubine Li away.

However, before the eunuch's hand touched Concubine Li's clothes, everyone was interrupted by the communication outside the palace.

Zhou Yu, Qiu Yan and others, with Qiu Gui, came over.
