In the past few days, Fu Qizheng has been remembering what he said in the letter, the construction of the city wall is directly implicated in the Ministry of Works, if there is really a cat, this may be an excellent opportunity to get rid of the Chen Mansion.

"Niangniang is still thinking about the city wall?" Nian Jinan asked.

Fu Qizheng looked at the light snow blowing outside the window, and said slowly: "Shengning is far away from Pingjing, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions in governance, and it is not surprising to say that officials have made money from building city walls, but it is not known who is involved in this matter." ”

"Why didn't Niangniang directly report to the emperor and let the emperor order a thorough investigation?"

"In this regard, a thorough investigation may not be able to damage Chen Yi in the slightest, from Shengning to Pingjing, I don't know how many officials are blocking for him, and his position as a scholar should be extremely stable." Fu Qizheng turned around and said, "But regardless of whether the Chen family is directly related to this matter or not, what this palace wants to do is to tie the Chen family and the city wall of Na Shengning together, and when it is really investigated, Chen Yi will bear the brunt." ”

Nian Jinan worried: "But it is really not easy to ignore these layers of people and directly hold Chen Shangshu accountable." ”

Fu Qizheng naturally understood this truth, and said lightly: "So this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, before the palace thinks of a way, let's hide it for the Ministry of Works." ”

"Sister, let's see who's coming." Fu Yinwei came in and said.

Fu Qizheng walked out of the dormitory, and Qiao Yanyi in the hall smiled and owed: "Concubine Niangniang." ”

Fu Qizheng said: "It's really a rare guest, sit down." ”

"Sister, take a look at Jing Huan, her eyebrows and eyes really look like Yan Yi, the last time I saw her, it was just a full moon. Now they've grown so big. Fu Yinwei looked at Jing Huan who was hugged by the maid behind Qiao Yanyi.

"How are you doing at home?"

Fu Yin said busily: "Sister, don't worry, the eldest princess is better to Yan Yi than to Ling Shizi." ”

"You've said everything I've said, let me say anything." Qiao Yanyi smiled at Fu Yin.

"Then you talk to your sister slowly. I took Jing Huan outside to play. After Fu Yinwei finished speaking, he led the servant out.

Fu Qizheng asked, "Why are you alone?" I didn't see Ling Shizi. ”

"He went to see the emperor." Qiao Yanyi asked again, "Is the Queen Mother still sorry for her mother?" ”

Fu Qizheng smiled: "I don't know how long the palace hasn't seen the queen mother, Hui Chang in the Jingming Palace can't afford to be sick, the queen mother is worried, and for the time being, she shouldn't have time to put her mind on the palace." "Since the last time, the queen mother made the queen mother compensate her wife and broke her army, whether the queen mother knew that it was difficult to retreat, and unconsciously passed such a long period of stable life.

"Master. Oh no, something happened to Concubine Xian. Liu Yi ran in and said.

Fu Qizheng was suddenly shocked: "What's wrong with Concubine Xian?" ”

"Someone from Gyeongbokgung Palace said that Concubine Xian Niangniang suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain. I'm afraid that the emperor's heir is sick, and the imperial doctor has already rushed there. ”

Fu Qizheng didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately went to Gyeongbokgung Palace, and bumped into He Youzhu's personal maid in front of the door: "See the noble concubine." ”

"How's Concubine Xian?"

"The Imperial Doctor is treating Niangniang inside."

Fu Qizheng hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

"Mother's in the morning. Somehow ......" the palace maid has not finished speaking. Doctor Wan came out and said to Fu Qizheng: "Guifei Niangniang, Weichen is incompetent, and he failed to keep the imperial heir in Concubine Xian's womb. ”

Fu Qizheng was stunned: "What did you say? ”

"The imperial heir in Concubine Xian's womb has always been safe, and Weichen doesn't know why she suddenly slipped, did Niangniang eat something that shouldn't be eaten?"

The palace maid hurriedly said, "Niangniang...... Niangniang seemed to have eaten the pastries sent by Fang Guiren, and then ......"

"Noble Fang." Fu Qizheng frowned, turned his eyes to look at the pastry on the table, and asked Taiyi Wan to verify whether it was caused by this pastry.

After Doctor Wan stepped forward to check, his expression was suddenly solemn. Said: "Hui Niangniang, safflower juice is added to this pastry." If a pregnant person eats it, he will slip on the fetus. ”

Speaking of safflower Fu Qizheng is very familiar, Du Xirui used this thing to cause Concubine Zhen to lose her son, and now there are still people who are using such insidious and vicious methods. Fu Qizheng looked at the servant and asked with a blank eye, "You said that this pastry was sent by Fang Guiren?" ”

The palace maid said: "Fang Guiren came to greet Niangniang in the afternoon, saying that this pastry was made by her own hands and brought it to Niangniang to taste." ”

Although Fu Qizheng was angry when she heard this, she was puzzled after a while, Fang Yuxiu has always been timid, and she has no grievances with Youzhu, why would she be so ruthless, take a step back, even if she wants to murder the emperor's heir, how can she blatantly send it in person. After Fu Qizheng thought about it rationally, he knew that this matter was not so simple, and said to Nian Jin'an: "Take the noble Fang to Jingyi Palace, and wait for the palace to go back for interrogation." ”

The people waiting in the hall retreated, Fu Qizheng entered the dormitory, and saw He Youzhu lying on the bed, his eyes open, although he was conscious, but his face was bloodless, and he was weak.

Fu Qizheng walked to the side of the bed, but saw a smile on the corner of He Youzhu's mouth: "Maybe I have no relationship with this child, if it's gone, it's gone." ”

Although he said so, the tears in the corners of his eyes couldn't hide the pain in He Youzhu's heart, Fu Qizheng was also a person who had lost his flesh and bones, how could he not understand her heartache at this time.

"The Imperial Doctor said that it was caused by the pastry," Fu Qizheng said softly.

After knowing the reason, He Youzhu was silent for a long time, then looked at Fu Qizheng and said, "Fang Guiren is innocent, you and I should know this." ”

Fu Qizheng took a deep breath and said, "I know, but everything has to wait until I ask Fang Yuxiu." ”

He Youzhu smiled bitterly: "Since she dares to make a move, she must be sure that you can't find out the truth, no matter what, you have to protect the life of Fang Guiren, don't let the innocent Fang Guiren die for that real murderer." ”

"She is also a mother, she can be so ruthless, the truth is the truth, it will come out in time, even if I can't find it out now, I won't let the two of her have a good time!" Fu Qizheng was furious.

When she returned to Jingyi Palace, Fang Yuxiu was already waiting in the palace, and when she saw Fu Qizheng, she hurriedly knelt down and was terrified: "Guifei Niangniang, concubine...... Concubine ......"

Fu Qizheng knew that she was also being used, and the safflower juice was added to the pastry, so she was afraid that she would still be kept in the dark, so she said in a calm tone: "Don't worry, if you have anything to say, say it slowly." ”

Fu Qizheng walked to the hall and sat down, and motioned for Nian Jin'an to help Fang Yuxiu.

Fang Yuxiu trembled again and said: "The concubine did not harm the concubine. ”

Fu Qizheng asked, "You made the pastry yourself?" ”

"It was made by the concubine, but the concubine didn't know why there were harmful things in it."

"Has anyone else touched the pastry besides you?"

Fang Yuxiu thought about it carefully and shook her head: "Since the concubine entered the palace, the concubine has treated the concubine very well, and the concubine has nothing to repay, she will only make some pastries, thinking that it is the concubine's heart, she doesn't dare to fake it." ”

Fu Qizheng was also helpless, knowing that she was wronged, but Fang Yuxiu herself insisted that no one else had touched her, how could she exonerate her, she couldn't ask anything from Fang Yuxiu's mouth, only to find another clue, so she asked Nian Jinan to take someone to Xihe Palace dining room to check.
