A group of concubines walked towards the Yuyue Palace with the emperor, the queen mother and the queen. Through Yunfu Palace, stepping into the hall, you can feel a burst of coolness coming to your face.

The queen's phoenix eyebrows looked directly at the palace maid Qiaoxiang, and Qiaoxiang saluted knowingly.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, ladies and gentlemen, please come with the slaves and maids."

Except for some serious masters who were not canonized, the concubines followed Qiaoxiang to the so-called post-flower bed. Several eunuchs had already taken prepared shovels and dug down under Qiao Xiang's instructions.

Time passed minute by minute, and the small pit had been dug about half a meter deep, but nothing was visible. Qiao Xiang stood aside and looked at something wrong, she remembered what Liu Ruyue said a few days ago, and her heart jumped violently. Knowing that he was afraid that he would be exposed, Concubine Niangniang's design failed, and she had no life to live.

"Report, there is a father-in-law outside the door who asked to see him, saying that he is a witness."

"Xuan."

After a while, a father-in-law, who looked very old, knelt on the ground with small steps.

"The slave is Liu Youcai, the head of the Sundries Mansion, who participates in the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen mother."

"Gonggong Liu, I remember that you once served the Emperor. How many years have passed, and you are also an old man in the palace. You know the seriousness of this matter, and if it is wrong, I will not be able to protect you. ”

"The minion Xie Emperor mentioned something. The slave heard about Concubine Lan's miscarriage yesterday, and remembered the scene he accidentally saw that day, and felt that something was wrong. I wanted to explain everything to the queen mother in Fengyi Palace, but I found that the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen mother all came to the Yuyue Palace, and they also hurriedly came to testify. ”

"Tell me what you stumbled upon that day."

"Back to the queen, the slave came to Yuyue Hall that day, and happened to see this palace maid secretly following her master, so out of curiosity, the slave also followed her. I don't know what to expect in the end...... The slave saw Liu Cairen take out a fine rag doll from his arms, his eyes were fierce, and he took out a thin needle and stabbed the doll in the abdomen while muttering. This was the first time the minion had seen such a terrifying scene in the palace for many years, and the servant was so frightened that he pulled his legs and left. ”

When it's time to act, I still pretend to be a little, with this thought, Liu Ruyue's bright eyes flow.

"This father-in-law, the concubine has no grievances with you, why did you give false testimony, and besides, you have nothing to do with the concubine."

"Liu Cairen can pretend. Could it be that Liu Cairen forgot that you failed to sleep before, and you should have returned to your residence immediately, but for some reason you came to the Sundries Mansion to take charge of the servants and prepare the sedan chair. But the palace stipulates that all concubines below the fifth rank do not sit in a sedan chair, and the slaves also abide by the palace rules and return to you with good intentions. As everyone knows, you were angry and injured the minions, and the minions did not heal until recently. After all, you are the emperor's concubine, and the slave does not dare to complain, and when he thinks backwards, he wants to come to the door to find the little eunuch next to you to vent his anger. Liu Cairen, Skynet is magnificent, I can't imagine that he is so vicious, even the emperor's heir dares to murder! ”

"Liu Cairen, there is such a thing."

Liu Ruyue was said like this, and it seems that there is such a thing when I think about it. She glanced at Qianyimo again, her favorability was still 5, and she sighed slightly in her heart: Sure enough, the emperor was affectionate, his concubine had a miscarriage, and the culprit was settled, but there was no emotional change.

"Back to the emperor, the palace stipulates that all concubines below the fifth rank do not sit in a sedan chair, but it does not include the period of waiting. Although the concubine failed to serve the bed, she also received the emperor's grace and wanted to carry the sedan chair back to the residence, thinking that she did not break the rules. As for the father-in-law who said that it was the concubine who injured him, it was a big joke. The concubine's body is so thin, I'm afraid that she can't even beat the palace maids around her, let alone hurt her father-in-law. ”

"You're talking nonsense! Your Majesty, it was definitely Liu Cairen who injured the slave, and the slave was absolutely false. ”

"Father-in-law, and it doesn't matter if the concubine is talking nonsense. Look at this pit, if it is the place you saw that day. ”

The father-in-law of the Miscellaneous Mansion looked at Liu Ruyue's gaze, and at this time, the soil pit had been dug and was still one meter deep, except for the withered black roots and leaves that were turned out at the beginning, it was some soil. Look at the palace maid standing on the side, her eyes are blank...... He has been in the palace for many years, and he only knew the problem at a glance, and unconsciously sat on his knees in a daze.

"Your Majesty, you see that this pit has been dug so deeply, how can there be any broken dolls buried. Qiaoxiang, the palace maid beside the concubine, and this old father-in-law, I don't know who bewitched her to frame the concubine like this, which is really hateful. What do you think, Queen? ”

Although the queen was a little annoyed by Liu Ruyue's previous rude resistance, at this time, Liu Ruyue asked her again and again after asking the emperor, and these words fell on her ears. Come to think of it, no matter who wants to use the bridge to murder someone, as long as it doesn't involve you, it's nothing.

"Liu Cairen has been wronged, and if you want to blame it, you can only blame these cheap slaves, and you have nothing to do. Come, take them down, and wait for them to fall. ”

"The queen mother, the slave is wronged. The minions are wronged! It's Liu Cairen, it must be Liu Cairen, she found out that her crime was exposed, and secretly transferred the evidence. Your Majesty, ask the Emperor to learn from it. ”

Qiao Xiang also reacted and knelt down, left and right is a death, according to the plan to say the words prepared in advance, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.

"The queen spares her life, and the emperor spares her life. The slave and maid still have evidence, and the slave and maid remember that the material on the doll at that time was very similar to the fine silk cloth that the emperor had rewarded Liu Cairen. ”

Concubine Shu was angry, it was obvious that her design had failed. She is also in power in this harem, and she hasn't tasted defeat for many years.

"As the saying goes, there is no wind. Qiaoxiang is the palace maid next to Liu Cairen, and there is no reason to harm her master. Your Majesty, what do you see? ”

"What Concubine Shu said is reasonable, search."

The eunuchs who followed immediately searched Liu Ruyue's room and the storehouse after hearing the order. Regarding the key to the warehouse, with Concubine Yan's arrangement, the key is naturally not a problem.

"Your Majesty, just listening to the words of an unknown palace maid can bother you to search for the residence of your concubine. If the concubine also has a report about Concubine Lan's miscarriage, but this matter is related to Concubine Shuniang......

"Liu Cairen, you can eat indiscriminately, don't talk nonsense, it's not that you want to delay time."

The lady smiled. After all, what happened at that time was also a long time apart, and the concubine also remembered it just now. Then there is the fact that the emperor rewarded the concubines, and the concubines were reluctant to move. On weekdays, it is collected as a treasure, and this matter is afraid that it will disappoint the lady concubine. ”

Concubine Shu smiled unnaturally: "This palace just wants to find out the truth, why be disappointed." ”

At this time, the eunuchs who searched also returned. One of the eunuchs was holding a few intact silk horses, which were obviously given to Liu Ruyue by the emperor.

"The minions see the emperor, see the queen mother, see the queen mother, this is from the Liu Cairen treasury."

The queen sitting opposite saw that Concubine Shu's face was a little worse, and her phoenix eyebrows bent slightly: "The matter of Concubine Lan's miscarriage really has nothing to do with Liu Cairen, if Liu Cairen knows something, you can make it clear, remember not to hide it." ”

Concubine Shu looked at the queen's smile with an angry look in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the little princess will wake up at this time, and the palace will have to go back to the palace to take care of it."

How easy is it for the queen to let Concubine Shu go, although she doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in Liu Ruyue's gourd, it doesn't prevent her from dealing with Concubine Shu.

"Concubine Shu, this matter is about the emperor's heir, and you can't make a hasty conclusion. Mother, what do you think? ”

The Queen Mother, who rarely speaks, has clear eyes. The matter of the imperial heir is indeed very important, on weekdays, she doesn't care how the concubines are jealous, who designs whom, but she must not harm the imperial heir, even the concubine is not allowed!
