Chang Gui instructed Meng Zhang not to spread this matter in advance, and he quietly calculated it in his heart alone.

Speaking of which, although Chang Gui is the grand duke who has been in charge of the Northern Qi Palace for many years, he has not dealt with the affairs between the concubines in the harem. Even, from the time he started working as an errand in the Northern Qi Palace, there was only one woman in the harem. Therefore, he is very cautious about treating Qixin and Concubine Duan, for fear that there is something he does not do well and does not conform to the rules.

But now, Chang Gui finally hesitated. He didn't know whether to treat the current situation as a problem caused by the competition for favor between concubines, or as something more serious. After all, this matter has affected the emperor, and there is such a big gap between the emperor and the queen, and now this situation is even more embarrassing.

Chang Gui thought like this, and he had already returned from the cold palace to the front of Zhengyang Palace. Guixiang saw Chang Gui from afar and felt weak, so he hurriedly ran away. The little eunuch who had been staring at Guixiang from the beginning told Chang Gui about Guixiang's every move. Chang Gui listened expressionlessly, but the uneasiness in his heart slowly amplified.

Chang Gui ordered the little eunuch to go to the gate of the Chuyu Palace to keep an eye on it, and with that uneasy heart, he entered the Zhengyang Palace.

After the seventh princess was removed from the dormitory of Zhengyang Palace, the palace maids quickly packed up the beds and cleaned them inside and out before leaving.

Beiqi was now dressed, but he still sat across the bed in a daze, staring at the bed. Chang Gui came in and saw the appearance of Northern Qi, so he stepped forward and stood in front of Northern Qi.

"Your Majesty, the slave thinks that this matter should be investigated carefully."

Beiqi raised his head and looked at Chang Gui suspiciously,

"Check?"

This seems to be an unspeakable thing for Chang Gui,

"Your Majesty, just now Meng Zhangshi quietly told the slave that he smelled about the smell of aphrodisiac drugs, and such drugs will also make pregnant women slip on the fetus. Your Majesty, the servant felt that this matter should still be investigated, and General Lin must be given an explanation. ”

Chang Gui's words have not yet been finished, and Beiqi has already understood, and there is no need for an additional reminder of the last sentence at all.

Suddenly, Beiqi got up from his seat,

"Yes, this matter, we must check it carefully, see who is behind the ghost, and give an explanation to Qi Xin and General Lin. I can too, so can I. ”

There was a look of excitement in Beiqi's eyes, like a person drowning in the water suddenly grasping a life-saving straw. The stagnant mind finally began to think quickly again.

Bei Qi sat back in his seat, and little by little tried his best to connect the events of last night. Chang Gui was the same, the two of them stood face to face, and they didn't say anything. Of course, in Chang Gui's head, there will be more things to consider. However, Northern Qi can rely on what it needs and subjectively construct what it needs.

Suddenly, Beiqi opened his eyes and looked at Chang Gui,

"The problem is with Concubine Duan, and those dishes. Ask the little palace maids to hand over the dishes they had just served out to Meng Zhangshi to see if it was the kind of smell that Meng Zhangshi smelled. Ask a few little eunuchs to go and watch the Dianchuyu Palace first, and don't allow Concubine Duan to go out with the news. ”

Chang Gui nodded lightly, the two of them didn't say anything, but they had already made plans in the shortest world.

Before Guixiang returned to Chuyu Palace, Concubine Duan had been sitting in front of her to put on makeup, but she had never been satisfied. The hair bun was combed and dismantled, and the eyebrows were wiped and painted, as if returning to the day she got married.

Although she has always been a young lady in the Golden Mansion and has been favored a lot, that day was the most glorious moment in her life. The whole city was celebrating her, and the red flowers in the sky blinded her. Not to mention that at that time, his biological mother had been standing in the position of Mrs. Jin and taking care of everything for her.

So, did you have a desire from that time?

Attaching to something you shouldn't have is a mistake in itself. If you stick to your ideas at that time, you will be a quiet woman, not coveting a child, not coveting that grace, and you will not make today's big mistake.

Concubine Duan has been trapped in her remorse like this, knowing that Guixiang is back.

"Niangniang, Niangniang, it's not good, then Niangniang, Niangniang."

Guixiang rushed in from the outside with a shout, and suddenly tripped over the door and threw herself on the ground, just at the feet of Concubine Duan. At this time, Concubine Duan still didn't hide her disgust, and shrank her feet back slightly,

"What's so flustered!"

Concubine Duan's cold voice pierced Guixiang's heart, and Guixiang was so frightened that she immediately restrained herself,

"Mother, mother."

"Tell me, what's going on!"

"Yes, yes, mother."

Guixiang unconsciously stepped back, and knelt down uprightly before she began to tell Concubine Duan what she had just heard.

"The slave has been guarding outside the Zhengyang Palace, today, this morning."

Concubine Duan looked at the panicked Guixiang, and suddenly felt compassion again, and her tone became much gentler.

"Guixiang, let's talk slowly, this palace, I can bear it."

"Yes, yes, mother."

Guixiang wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, readjusted her posture, and took a deep breath before starting,

"The slave maid has been guarding the Zhengyang Palace, and when the sky was bright, a little eunuch hurriedly went to ask the imperial doctor to come. After the imperial doctor came, someone went to Weiyang Palace to invite the queen mother over. However, after a while, I saw the queen being carried out. ”

"The queen was carried out?"

Concubine Duan interrupted when she heard this's question,

"Yes, yes. It's a fainting. ”

Concubine Duan gasped, and had a vague answer in her heart, but she still couldn't believe it,

"You go on."

"Yes, yes. Later, Concubine Shu was also carried out. ”

"Lady? Concubine Shu was also carried out? Was it right that Concubine Shufei had been last night? ”

Seeing that Concubine Duan's expression became unusually nervous, Guixiang became nervous again,

"Yes, yes, Concubine Shuniang has probably been staying in Zhengyang Palace, and the slave maid was with Niangniang for the last time last night and saw Concubine Shuniang."

Concubine Duan's face began to turn pale, and she clenched her fists tightly,

"Lady, how does it look?"

"Slave maid, slave maid didn't see Concubine Niangniang, it's just that Chang Gui's father-in-law also followed, it should be very serious. The slave and maid followed quietly, and it had been sent to the cold palace. ”

"What!"

Concubine Duan stood up from her actions at once,

"Cold Palace! Concubine Shu was carried to the cold palace!? ”

"Mother, mother, mother."

All the previous luck has disappeared, the situation has become very clear, and Concubine Duan has even seen the ones that are about to wait in front of her. It's late, it's too late. (To be continued.) )
