In front of the gate of Wanfu Palace, after taking a step, He Yinan hid behind Fu Qizheng and did not dare to go in. Fu Qizheng looked at He Yinan, smiled kindly, and said lightly: "Yinan, don't be afraid, with a stepmother, no one can bully Yinan." ”

He Yinan seemed to understand, so he was willing to let Fu Qizheng lead him in.

"The emperor has to make decisions for the third prince and Sister Shu, the third prince is so sick now, Sister Shu is the mother of the third prince, and she should be ...... in her heart."

"The concubine has arrived."

Fu Qizheng led He Yinan into the hall, and saw that it was Tong Shujin who was complaining in the hall, not Chen Xiying.

"The concubines see the emperor." Fu Qizheng blessed the body. He Yinan pulled Fu Qizheng's skirt tightly on the side, extremely timid.

"Get up." Emperor Yuan said lightly, "Concubine Shu said that He Yinan pushed Ling Hong into the water, causing Ling Hong to be injured and contracted a cold, but is there such a thing?" Although the tone was calm, it was not difficult to hear the anger mixed in with it.

Fu Qizheng didn't want to think about it and said: "Back to the emperor, there is no such thing." ”

"The concubine Niangniang is still shielding Nan Shizi, and the concubine's Hong'er is lying in it and is hot all over, with a high fever that does not go away, is everything Hong'er to blame?" Chen Xiying's eyes were red, and while wiping her tears, she walked out of the dormitory.

"How the third prince fell into the water, Tong Guiren knows it in his heart." Fu Qizheng said expressionlessly.

"Of course the concubine knows, the concubine's maid witnessed everything." Tong Shujin glanced at the palace maid beside him.

The palace maid knelt down and said, "Back to the emperor, the slave maid was accompanying the third prince to play by the pool. found that Nan Shizi was there alone, and the third prince wanted to play with Nan Shizi, but Nan Shizi refused. He also pushed the three princes into the water. ”

Fu Qizheng couldn't help but raise his lips and sneered: "When this palace asked you before, no one admitted that they saw it, so they were in a hurry to change their words?" ”

"The slave and maid are afraid of the punishment of the concubine and the maid, so they dare not tell the truth, and now in front of the emperor, the slave and maid can only tell the truth."

Tong Shujin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, now that there are all the human and material evidence, there is no doubt that Nan Shizi is plotting to kill the third prince." ”

Fu Qizheng looked at Emperor Yuan and said, "Your Majesty." How old is Yi Nan, how can he push Ling Hong. ”

Tong Shujin snorted and said, "How much strength does it take for a child to push a child." ”

The palace maid said again: "Back to the emperor, the third prince was by the pool at that time." Although Nan Shizi didn't make much effort, the three princes fell down unsteadily. ”

"I wronged the third prince, I wanted to play with Nan Shizi with a good intention, but I was caught in this disaster. Sick like this. Tong Shujin looked distressed.

Fu Qizheng said angrily: "There is no excuse for the crime you want to add. Ling Hong was wronged, Concubine Shu and Tong Guiren wronged Yinan so much, Yinan was not wronged? ”

"The concubine's Hong'er is sick like this, the concubine, the mother, just wants to ask for an explanation for Hong'er, which has been confirmed by testimony, but the concubine Niangniang is still defending Nan Shizi in every possible way, is Niangniang trying to force our mother and son to death?" Chen Xiying said indignantly.

Tong Shujin knelt on the ground again and pleaded: "The emperor wants to be the master of Sister Shu and Prince Ling Hong." ”

Fu Qizheng reprimanded: "You don't make matters worse here, you know the truth." ”

"Enough!"

A loud voice came. Fu Qizheng was stunned and slowly turned his eyes to look. I saw that his face was blue and his eyes were extremely cold.

"Niangniang is not good, the third prince has convulsions." The maid inside ran out and said.

Emperor Yuan and Chen Xiying hurriedly went in to visit, and Tong Shujin also followed, leaving only Fu Qizheng and He Yinan in the palace.

"Stepmother." He Yinan looked at Fu Qizheng and shouted.

Fu Qizheng squatted down, touched his little head, and said, "Be good, don't be afraid." ”

"The Imperial Doctor must save Hong'er, he is my life......" Chen Xiying's cry came from the hall.

Listening to the movement inside, it seems that he has made a mess, and now he is only afraid that he is even more angry, Fu Qizheng squatted on the ground, gently holding He Yinan, even Fu Qizheng didn't know how Ling Hong fell into the water, plus there was no evidence, and she couldn't argue, the only thing she could bet on was his trust.

I waited silently outside for a long time, and when I saw him, his face was extremely gloomy, and what could be more stumbling than a child lying on a sickbed.

Fu Qizheng stood up, his eyes calm, and he only heard him say coldly: "What evidence do you have to prove that Ling Hong's fall into the water was not caused by He Yinan." ”

"The concubine can't find evidence for a while......" Fu Qizheng said in a short sentence, full of helplessness, and said resolutely, "But the concubine believes that this matter is definitely not Yinan's doing." ”

"Your Majesty, since the concubine can't produce evidence, and there is already a palace maid's testimony confirming that this matter was indeed committed by Nan Shizi, I guess the truth of the matter couldn't be clearer." Tong Shujin is righteous.

"Is the so-called evidence of the noble Tong a sentence from this slave? She is your maid, and she is naturally your life. Fu Qizheng glanced at Tong Shujin and sneered.

"Since the concubine has no evidence, He Yinan can't escape the matter of Ling Hong falling into the water."

When Fu Qizheng heard this, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Yi Nan is just a child, what does he know." ”

"The third prince is the prince, and the three princes were injured in the water and are now so sick, such a big crime, ignorance does not mean that there is impunity, even if there is no punishment, it should be punished." Tong Shujin said.

"Tong Guiren actually wanted to torture a two-year-old child." Fu Qizheng was stunned.

Chen Xiying then said: "The concubine's Hong'er is sick like this, even if the concubine doesn't care about the concubine's feelings as a mother, she has to give the emperor an explanation, He Yinan can't stand the pain, should the concubine's Hong'er suffer this?" ”

"Stepmother." He Yinan turned around and hugged Fu Qizheng, his eyes full of fear.

Fu Qizheng knelt down in a panic, protected He Yinan in his arms, looked at Emperor Yuan and said: "Your Majesty, no matter whether Yinan pushed the three princes or not, it is the fault of the concubine who did not take care of Yinan, if someone must be responsible for this matter, the concubine is willing to accept the guilt." ”

"Even if the concubine is willing to bear it, it doesn't mean that Nan Shizi will be fine."

Fu Qizheng was furious: "Tong Shujin, you! ”

Tong Shujin said calmly: "Don't blame the concubine, the concubine is really distressed by the third prince, the concubine has never been a mother, so naturally she can't understand the pain in Sister Shu's heart." ”

Chen Xi wiped her tears: "If Hong'er has a ...... with three long and two short"

Tong Shujin hurriedly comforted: "Sister Shu, rest assured, the third prince will be safe and sound." ”

The son's illness, the biological mother's tears, what could be more heart-wrenching? Fu Qizheng doesn't want to defend anymore, just wait for it to fall.

"It was caused by the negligence of the concubine, and he was sent for half a year to set an example, as for He Yinan, he should be punished for his mistakes, and he was young and punished ten times to show punishment."

Fu Qizheng hurriedly pleaded: "The emperor's ......" flogging is the lightest punishment, but He Yinan is only two years old, even ten strokes are a heavy responsibility.

Emperor Yuan ignored Fu Qizheng and went straight to the dormitory to visit Ling Hong, but Chen Xiying was still crying with pear blossoms and rain, and followed in.

Fu Qizheng knelt on the ground, looking at his departing figure, he walked so decisively, he didn't look at her, he couldn't help laughing at himself, he should be so angry, shouldn't he? is ruthless just because it is his son who is lying inside, and it is the child's mother who is crying aggrieved, what is she Fu Qizheng here! It is ridiculous that he dares to believe it.

"Mother." Nian Jin'an came in and wanted to help Fu Qizheng up.

There was no room for turn, Fu Qizheng kowtowed gently: "The concubine has the order, thank you Lord Longen." He stood up and led He Yinan out of Wanfu Palace.

Li Changhai was already waiting in the courtyard, holding the flogging board, and said helplessly: "Guifei Niangniang, this is the emperor's will, but Niangniang can rest assured, the slave knows the severity." ”

"Father-in-law Li has to do a good job." Tong Shujin stood in front of the door of the hall, looking outside, a smug smile on the corner of his lips.

Ten lashes, each of which was like a needle piercing Fu Qizheng's heart, tears like rain, holding He Yinan's hand tightly, He Yinan cried in pain, Fu Qizheng's heart was like a knife, after all, she failed to protect this child.

Before leaving, Fu Qizheng glanced back at Wanfu Palace, and now in this palace, it is good that father, mother, and son are reunited and enjoy their families.

Only she silently turned around and left with He Yinan on her back...... (To be continued.) )
