As soon as the Queen Mother's funeral passed, it seemed that everything was calm again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On this day, Xia Wanfeng returned from the palace, Qi Ye was studying medicinal materials, seeing him returning, Qi Ye put down the medicinal materials in his hand, walked towards Xia Wanfeng, and asked, "Why did you come back so late today?" ”

Xia Wanfeng poured herself a glass of water, took a sip, and replied: "The emperor sent me to Chengguang Hall today and talked for a while, so it's too late!" ”

"What did the emperor say again? Is there something important for you? Qi Ye asked.

Xia Wanfeng sighed and said: "Yes, the emperor handed over the matter of Mingkong to the Criminal Department to investigate, it has been more than a month, and no news has come, the emperor is very unhappy, and handed over this matter to me, and ordered that none of my strict party members who are empty will be allowed to pass!" ”

His heroic eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if shrouded in a faint cloud of smoke.

Qi Ye also frowned: "Mingkong has been killed by the emperor, and the Tao concubine who colluded with him before has also died in the Severe Punishment Division, and all the clues have been broken, how can I check this?" ”

Xia Wanfeng sighed and said, "It's because the case is tricky that the emperor will hand it over to me!" However, this is not a political party dispute, this is a matter of the harem, the emperor suddenly asked me to meddle in the affairs of the harem, and I can't go into the harem to ask one by one, this matter is even more difficult to do! ”

Qi Ye looked around, and saw that only the two of them were in the room at the moment, Fang said: "You can use the secret line you planted in the palace to check the people in the harem!" ”

When Xia Wanfeng heard this, his eyebrows jumped, he looked around, saw that there was no one, and said in a low voice to Qi: "When the Criminal Department felt very tricky about this matter before, I did use the dark line in the palace to investigate, there was a fellow party before Mingkong, it was Tao Concubine, she died inexplicably in the Severe Punishment Division, my people traced some clues, but all the clues pointed to the Middle Palace, Tao Concubine's death was related to the Middle Palace, and the Middle Palace killed Tao Concubine, did you want to kill people?" Could it be that Mingkong's other party is the Middle Palace? ”

Hearing this, Qi Ye's eyelids jumped fiercely, and his brows furrowed even deeper, as if he was in disbelief: "How can Mingkong's other party be Zhonggong?" The queen is the most filial to the queen mother, how can she harm the queen mother? Will your subordinates' investigation fail? You may not know about the situation in the harem, but the Queen Mother is seriously ill, I have been in Shou'an Palace during this time, I can see it clearly, the most diligent in serving the Queen Mother in front of the Queen Mother is the queen, she has always been serving tea and medicine, serving the Queen Mother, no matter how big or small, all of them are done by themselves, after a few months, people have lost a lot of weight, very haggard, her heart for the Queen Mother, everyone sees it, there is no fake, how can she harm the Queen Mother? ”

Xia Wanfeng let out a long sigh, her eyebrows were deep, and said: "Actually, I don't believe this news either, but the people under my command are very strict, it is impossible to have problems, I know what you said is very fair, this matter is very important, if it is really the queen who killed Tao Concubine in order to kill people, the queen is Mingkong's comrade, this involves the Wang family, the matter is serious, I don't want to have something to do with the stars, so I didn't find out and report to the emperor!" ”

Qi Ye thought about it carefully and said: "It can't be the queen, I don't believe the queen would do such a thing, his kind of piety and single-minded care for the queen mother is definitely not pretended, and it can't be pretended!" The queen killed Concubine Tao, could it be because of something else? ”

Xia Wanfeng asked: "If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to kill people and kill her mouth, Concubine Tao had already been sent to the Severe Punishment Division, why would the queen still kill her?" ”

When he heard this, he didn't speak for a long time.

Xia Wanfeng patted Qi Ye's shoulder and comforted: "This matter involves the Wang family, I won't report it to the emperor until I find out, don't worry, the queen will be fine for the time being!" ”

Qi Ye said: "The matter of the Queen Mother is not a trivial matter, what if the emperor urges it?" ”

Xia Wanfeng comforted: "Don't worry, I have my own way to deal with the past!" ”

Prayer Night nodded.

In the following time, Xia Wanfeng has been chasing down the empty party, the atmosphere in the palace has been very dull, Xi Ze rarely stepped into the harem, everyone knew that the emperor was in a bad mood, and no one dared to disturb it, and the days of the harem were calm again.

On the other hand, Shen Luyi and Wang Ningxuan are also continuing to track down the empty party.

Time flickered and it was the end of June.

On June 25, Wang Jieyu, who was nine months pregnant, because she had falsely reported for a month, in the eyes of everyone, the child was already full-term, and it was impossible to delay it until the time of normal delivery, so he bought the doctor to induce labor a month in advance, and the time was today.

It has been a long time since there has been a happy event in the palace, and Xi Ze received the news, and after dealing with the matter at hand, he came to Yanxi Palace.

At that time, it was already afternoon, and it was hot, and although the Yanxi Palace was full of ice, it still couldn't suppress the heat.

Yun Tian came to Yanxi Palace early in the morning to wait, and after not seeing Xi Ze for many days, he seemed to have lost weight again, and Yun Tian felt a little distressed in his heart.

In the inner hall, Wang Jieyu's heart-rending roar spread endlessly, pricking people's nerves.

Wang Ningxuan seemed to be unable to sit still, got up and walked towards the inner hall.

Xi Ze suddenly called: "Empress, where are you going?" ”

Wang Ningxuan had no choice but to turn around and say, "The concubine wants to go in and have a look!" ”

Xi Ze said with a calm face: "Don't you understand the rules? ”

Sixi hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, the delivery room is bloody, you are the honor of the middle palace, how can you go in, the slave knows that you are worried about Wang Jieyu, but the imperial doctor and the midwife are inside, it will be fine, you can rest assured, wait outside!" ”

Wang Ningxuan didn't go back, she frowned slightly and said: "Your Majesty, this cry is too miserable, after all, it is the concubine's sister, the concubine really can't rest assured, if the concubine goes inside to accompany her, she can also cheer her up!" Let the concubines in! ”

Xi Ze snorted coldly and said, "What are you anxious about? It's not like this when you give birth to a child, which woman doesn't call it when she gives birth? You don't have to rush! Just wait outside, no need to go in! You are the queen, pay attention to the identity! ”

Wang Ningxuan was helpless, so he had to say: "Yes!" ”

He turned back to his seat and sat down.

Time seemed to be getting harder and harder, and Wang Jieyu's heart-rending roar continued to come, making the wait even more difficult.

In this way, it was not until the evening that the midwife came out of the inner hall, knelt down with the child in her arms and said: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, Wang Jieyu gave birth to a little prince safely!" Mother and child are safe! ”

The queen said with a smile on her face: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, Wang Jieyu gave birth to a little prince, adding joy to the palace, it is really a great joy!" ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and they stepped forward to congratulate them. (To be continued.) )
