"Imperial Grandmother...... How did you get here? ”

Seeing this, the emperor gently put down the crown prince, and hurriedly got up and stepped forward to help the queen mother, his eyes full of astonishment.

The Empress Dowager only snorted coldly, glanced at the emperor with slanted eyes, and rested her hand on the hand of the empress who was following her, skillfully avoiding the emperor's greeting.

"If I don't come again, will you just clean up my people and Ye'er's people before you stop?"

The emperor was directly choked back by the Empress Dowager's words, but he didn't dare to disobey her old man, so he smiled awkwardly and said carefully: "Grandson doesn't dare." ”

"What are you not afraid of? Aren't you already doing it? If I don't come, I'm afraid that everyone has already been sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. ”

After that, looking at the prince who was pale on the bed, his forehead was full of sweat, and the corners of his mouth were still bloodstained, his originally dry eyes were hot, and tears were about to pour out, she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, and said to Ah Zi: "Girl, you go and see Ye'er's situation quickly, if you have any needs, just say, with me here, you can rest assured, no one dares to stop you." ”

Ah Zi got the letter, broke away from the guards beside him and rushed towards Yan Xiye.

The Empress Dowager knew that Ah Zi was a disciple of the doctor Xianliu Siqi, and coupled with her identity as a witch, she was sure that Xi Ye was taken care of by Ah Zi, so she let go of most of her heart, and at this time motioned to the emperor and other idle people to go out of the inner room with her.

"What the hell is going on?"

The Empress Dowager questioned the emperor with a cold face, and the emperor respectfully returned what he knew, and did not dare to hide it at all.

It's just that most of what happened in this palace in one day was only known from Wang Qing's mouth. Originally, when he came to the emperor, it was already a version of adding oil and vinegar, coupled with the emperor's own preconceived prejudice against Ah Zi, most of the words he said were also aimed at the suspicion of Ah Zi's identity.

The Empress Dowager was already tired of panicking when she heard half of it, waved her hand to interrupt the emperor's statement, and looked at the palace maid and eunuch guards who were kneeling in the main hall, and saw the little palace maid who had helped Ah Zi find the medicine bowl at a glance, and pointed at her and said, "You are the girl who helped the prince serve porridge before?" ”

Seeing that she was named, the little palace maid was defenseless for a while, and only responded with a stunned "yes".

Wang Qing, who was kneeling on the side, gritted his teeth and whispered: "If you don't understand the rules, the Empress Dowager will ask you." You don't even bring an honorific. Do you really think you're a character? ”

Only then did the little palace maid realize that she had lost her manners, and the tears in her eyes began to roll, and she kowtowed to the Empress Dowager in a panic.

"Where is your place to speak? If you want me to see, the prince's palace has been disturbed by you dogs who don't know the height of the sky. If you hadn't deceived you like this. Adore the rising sun. How could he not even find out that the prince's side was mixed with Dongyuan's fine work? ”

Unexpectedly, he taught a little palace maid who didn't know how to be polite at this moment, and he also rebelled against the scales of the empress dowager, Wang Qing didn't dare to put down such a hat no matter how hard his waist was, so frightened that he shrunk his neck and didn't dare to say more. only asked the Empress Dowager for forgiveness again and again.

The Empress Dowager didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned her head to the little palace maid and said: "Don't be scared by him, I don't have so many rules here, you just stand up and talk, and give everything you know, I guarantee that you will be fine." ”

With such a promise from the Empress Dowager, this is tantamount to giving herself a gold medal to avoid death at this critical juncture, and the little palace maid naturally felt a lot more relaxed, and thanked the Empress Dowager again and again gratefully, and then returned the story of the prince's murder.

The Empress Dowager groaned for a while when she heard this, and then said to Wang Qing and the others: "Who introduced this Wang Chuanchao?" What origin? What have you done these days when you came to Duanben Palace? ”

This Wang Chuanchao was not introduced at all, but he was temporarily transferred to replace him by a lack of people in the palace some time ago, as for his background...... This Wang Qing is even more unclear.

So at this moment he knelt there, and he couldn't answer for a long time.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager was angry and went straight up, and slapped her palm directly on the carved armrest of the chair under her, and the armrest of the red solid wood collided with the jade wrench finger on her hand, clicking the ground, like an angry roar, echoing in the main hall.

"As the great eunuch beside the prince, you don't even know the background of the people who serve around the prince, so it's no wonder that something like this will happen in this palace now, if Xin Zi hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid that the prince would die in bed and his body would be cold, and you wouldn't have noticed, right?"

I didn't expect that I tried my best to get away with it, but it became darker and darker, and now I was told by the Queen Mother, knowing that I couldn't escape the charge of dereliction of duty in the murder of the prince anyway, Wang Qing died at this time, and cried and cried to return what he knew to the truth.

"The Empress Dowager Qi, this Wang Chuanchao was directly transferred from the Internal Affairs Office, there was a shortage of people in the palace at that time, and now there is really no suitable candidate to recommend him, so he temporarily used this person, thinking that it would not be too late to carefully check the details of that person in the future.

"Who knew that Wang Chuanchao had just come to Duanben Palace for a few days, and he had checked all aspects of the prince's diet and daily life, and even often interfered in it without authorization.

The servant had thought about sending him away, but the queen's birthday banquet was imminent, and the palace was so busy that he didn't have time to take care of a newcomer like Wang Chuanchao, so it was delayed.

But the slave didn't think about letting this person go like this, but he felt that now was the time when there was a shortage of people, and the Internal Affairs Office couldn't transfer a new person to fill his lack for a while, so he decided to keep this person for the time being, and when the birthday banquet was over, he would deal with him immediately.

"But who would have thought that now that the birthday banquet has not been held, there is a leak first......

"The slave knew that the responsibility for this incident was all on the slave, it was the slave's dereliction of duty, negligence in management, and after the accident, he was bent on how to cover up the matter, which delayed the prince's illness and caused a big mistake......

"The slave doesn't ask the queen mother and the queen to forgive the slave, but there is an old mother in the slave's family, and after the slave begs the slave to go, the palace can read that the slave has been with the prince for so many years, and there is no merit and hard work, and let go of the slave's old mother......"

In the end, Wang Qing couldn't cry.

The Empress Dowager sighed when she saw this, she was not the aggressive person in the first place, as long as the other party knew that the mistake could be corrected, she always believed that everyone who did evil also had their own difficulties.

What's more, this Wang Qing is also an old man beside the prince, and she doesn't plan to kill them all when she thinks about the old days.

"Since you know your mistake, I will spare your life for the time being, but you are limited to finding that Wang Chuanchao for me within three days, you can do it?" (To be continued.) )
