Easily and happily sent away the stupid emperor, and then asked Granny Hua and Xiangwu to take several palace people from Yikun Palace to the apse to investigate the cause of Qing Concubine's death, Xiao Guifei turned her face to look at those who were still kneeling on the ground.

At a glance, she saw the concubine with a blank face, stepped forward, sat down in the place where the emperor had just sit, and said in all directions: "Get up." ”

The concubines of Qingyun Palace, led by Concubine He, gave Concubine Xiao a thank you gift again, and then they were helped to stand up by their respective maidservants. This kind of tragedy happened, and all the concubines who lived in the same palace were panicked, for fear that this disaster would implicate themselves.

Concubine Xiao gave everyone a seat, sighed and said, "It's such a night, and this palace doesn't want to detain everyone to suffer here." It's just that someone is dead, and she is still a concubine, and since this palace is in charge of all the affairs of the six palaces, she has to ask a few words. If Concubine Qing is just sick and dies of illness, then there is nothing wrong. If she hadn't died of illness......"

She paused intentionally, and saw that all the concubines were pale in face, obviously frightened.

Everyone is mixed up on the tip of the knife, who can survive from the prince's backyard to the present, who hasn't had three or two hits? The unfinished words of the concubine Niangniang are obviously that if Qing Concubine dies of poisoning, then it is a big question whether the person who poisoned her is targeting her, or the emperor who eats and drinks with her.

Concubine He trembled and said slightly: "The concubine Niangniang saw that Concubine Qing lived alone in the apse, and because of the emperor's favor, she was allowed to set up a small stove on her own. Therefore, her meals are very different from those of her concubines, and they are all made by herself. Today is no exception, especially when the emperor wants to dine with her, and she cooks herself. ”

Concubine Xiao put her arms on the armrests of the wide chair and said coolly: "Even if you start a small stove alone, it is more convenient for people who live in the same palace to start their hands." Again. The palace knows that Qing Concubine has had a hard time during this time, and she has not opened a group alone for a long time, and she is also in the big kitchen of Qingyun Palace. ”

Concubine He looked confused and said at a loss: "This and this...... The concubine didn't know about this, and the concubine stayed at home every day, never caring about the affairs of the palace......"

Concubine Xiao's eyes and ears are all over the palace. I also know that this concubine is indeed not a nosy person. It's rare to live in the same house and be ignorant and ignorant to such a point. She was noncommittal, and her eyes fell on a few palace people whose faces were particularly frightened. That's the person next to Qing Concubine.

Concubine Xiao pointed a little at one of the grandmothers in her forties, and said, "Are you the grandmother in charge of Concubine Qing?" ”

The grandmother hurriedly knelt down and said, "Slave Zhu, meet the concubine." ”

"The surname is Zhu. Presumably Qing Concubine brought it from her mother's house? Concubine Xiao said, "Has Concubine Qing been unwell in recent days?" ”

Mama Zhu said with tears in her eyes: "Qi Qi Guifei Niangniang." Qing Concubine Niangniang is in good health and has no discomfort. Then he let out a cry of grief, "She was killed by someone, and she begged Niangniang to avenge her blood hatred for Qing Concubine Niangniang!" ”

"Oh? Put it this way. Qing Concubine really didn't die of illness. Concubine Xiao sneered in her heart, this Mama Zhu must be the most confidant of Concubine Qing, and she must know a lot of inside information. Then he said slowly, "What happened to Concubine Qing these days." You carefully explain it to Hongu. Since you keep saying that your master is a victim of others, if you hide something, it will be difficult for the matter to come to light. Do you understand? ”

Mama Zhu made up her mind, kowtowed her head heavily, her forehead was blue, and she said categorically: "The slave understands!" The slave had already suspected someone. ”

"Who is it?" Concubine Xiao asked. The concubine next to her was frightened when she heard it, this Mama Zhu seemed to be dumb, and she didn't say a word, it seems that she was waiting for the person in charge of the palace to arrive before opening the inside story!

"Qing Concubine Niangniang has been living in a simple house recently, but only a few days ago, the eldest princess of Kunshan came to visit with the princess of Taicheng. The slave and maid listened to it clearly, and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said threatening words in every word! Mama Zhu fell to the ground and howled, "I didn't expect that in just a few days, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess would actually be poisoned!" ”

"Bold slave, presumptuous!" Suddenly there was a loud shout outside the hall, and the person who spoke was obviously angry, and the angry rebuke was sharp and piercing, as if it was about to tear people's eardrums.

Immediately afterwards, the people in the outer palace said in a long voice: "The queen mother has arrived, and the queen mother has arrived!" ”

Concubine Xiao stood up slowly, helped Tingfeng and Granny Hua, her body was slender, she walked or two, and she looked ill. Soon, the Empress Dowager Jade and Empress Xu entered one after the other, and Concubine Xiao lightly blessed her body and said: "The concubine body asks the queen mother to say goodbye, and the queen mother asks for peace." ”

The Empress Dowager Yu's face was pale, and she directly ordered: "This damn slave dares to climb the eldest princess and drag it down to death!" Xiao, you have ignored the trust of the emperor and the empress, and you have not done your job effectively, from today onwards, you will hand over the power of the assistant six palaces, and give the mourning family back to your Yikun Palace behind closed doors! ”

Behind everyone, the eldest princess of Kunshan and the princess of Taicheng also arrived. Hearing this, the eldest princess of Kunshan was full of indifference, but the princess of Taicheng frowned slightly and glanced at her mother cautiously.

That Mama Zhu was crazy, and shouted loudly: "The eldest princess of Kunshan, Hongzang, Hongzang!" These are the last two words left by Qing Concubine before she died, holding Mama Zhu's hand.

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Xiao sighed in her heart, and secretly said that she was surprised. The Jade Empress Dowager Xu and Empress Xu are all discolored. Princess Taicheng didn't know why, although she lowered her eyebrows, she secretly looked around with the corner of her eye.

On the contrary, it was the eldest princess of Kunshan, with a relaxed face. She chuckled twice and said, "Huh! The slave has gone mad. Mother, you say yes, right? ”

The Empress Dowager Jade had regained her composure at this time, glared at the eldest princess of Kunshan, and said, "Drag it down!" ”

"Wait!" Concubine Xiao, who had already planned to take advantage of the situation to temporarily retreat, changed her mind, she smiled and said, "The Queen Mother is graceful, and the emperor appointed the concubine to deal with this matter." You want the concubine to hand over the power to think about it, and the concubine does not dare to disobey, but before the emperor decrees, the concubine still has to ask a few words about this matter. ”

The Empress Dowager Jade was furious, laughed twice and said, "Xiao, you are so bold!" Mourning the will of the family, you dare to disobey it? ”

"The concubine doesn't dare." Concubine Xiao still smiled and said, "The concubine just regards the emperor's will as more important than the queen mother's will." After all, this day Xingguo is still surnamed Murong. Could it be that the Queen Mother, do you think that your decree has now been re-ordered by the emperor? ”

Such heart-wrenching words, even the Empress Dowager Jade did not dare to take it lightly. She gritted her teeth and said, "Come on, invite the emperor to the mourning family!" He told the emperor that his favorite concubine was too arrogant, and the mourning family was willing to avoid her. I just ask the emperor to let the mourning family go out of the palace for the sake of the emperor, and be raised by Prince Yuchuan! (To be continued.) )>
