Concubine Qi was pregnant, which was originally a great joy, but now she is mired in gossip.

Even everyone decided that she had committed adultery with Hua Dan Huang, so is the child in her belly the emperor's flesh and blood, or Hua Dan Huang's wild seed?

Even the emperor was thinking about this issue, so at this moment, he not only did not have a trace of joy, but was very disgusted with the fact that she was pregnant.

After Concubine Qi learned that she was pregnant, her whole person was mixed.

I am happy that I have another child, and I am worried that this child is not at the right time.

If she gets pregnant at other times, she will be more favored, and she may even be canonized as the queen by the emperor, and being pregnant at this time will only make the emperor more suspicious of her, so that she will be snubbed by him......

Concubine Qi touched her belly that had not yet bulged and sighed slightly.

A little palace maid knew her sorrow, because the whole palace was full of gossip about the concubine.

"Niangniang, don't worry, the emperor will not listen to other people's slander and misunderstand you." She whispered.

Concubine Qi shook her head: "If he didn't believe those words, he would have come to see me a long time ago, and I know that he is already suspicious of me." ”

At this time, she didn't want to see the emperor, and what Concubine Qi wanted to see most was her son Thirteen Belle Yinling.

At this moment, the emperor was angrily saying to Gonggong Chen: "Really? Did you really find the exact evidence that Concubine Qi was fornicating with Hua Danhuang? ”

It turned out that Gonggong Chen secretly bought off the old slave who came to the imperial city with Hua Danhuang, and asked him to promise to perjury and frame Concubine Qi.

"Your Majesty, the slave is vouched for by the head, and the witness this time is the old slave next to Hua Danhuang, he said that he saw Concubine Qi and Hua Danhuang have a private meeting ......"

"Quickly call that house slave in, I will interrogate him myself." The emperor's voice trembled, indicating that he was really angry this time.

Gonggong Chen immediately said: "Your Majesty, the others are already waiting outside the palace gate for summons, and the servants will immediately go and call him in." ”

After speaking, Gonggong Chen walked out.

At this time, the four masters secretly summoned by Yin Rui had already come to the palace gate one step ahead of him.

They were given a simple order to kill the traitor for glory. Ungrateful slaves.

When Gonggong Chen was triumphant, thinking that Concubine Qi was going to die this time, he found that his witness Lao Lao slave had died at the gate of the palace.

There were three small blood spots on his neck, which were obviously hit by some hidden weapon. However, the guards said that they had not seen anyone approaching the man.

In other words, he fell to the ground and died in a daze.

Gonggong Chen didn't know that this matter was also due to the cold-blooded talent Ziping, one of the four masters, who had hundreds of hidden weapons hidden in an elephant bone fan in his hand, making it easy to take people's lives.

After killing this fake witness, Yin Rui knew that this matter was not over.

Although this old slave is dead. But the emperor's suspicion of Concubine Qi has reached its limit.

He not only ordered Concubine Qi to be grounded, but even began to be angry with Concubine Qi's son Thirteen Belle, and locked him in the mansion, not allowing him to go out, let alone visiting his mother-in-law.

Yin Rui already knew that Concubine Qi was wronged, but now no one except himself refused to believe her.

And Hua Danhuang is dead, and this matter is even more unclear.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, once Concubine Qi loses power, the balance of this harem will be broken. When the time comes, not only the palace, but also the government and the opposition will be disrupted. ”

In the study, Liu Yun, the eldest young master of the Liu Mansion, said to Yin Rui.

This layer of powerful relationship, Yin Rui has already thought of it.

But at present, he really can't think of any way to dispel the emperor's suspicions about Concubine Qi.

"The most taboo thing for the emperor is that his concubine is unfaithful, and this time I am afraid that someone deliberately provoked trouble in the harem...... wants to bring down Concubine Qi. Yin Rui said.

Liu Yun said a little puzzled: "But didn't His Highness say that the eight-faced Buddha has already captured Ouyang Deyuan and locked him in the basement of Ouyang Mansion?" Apart from him, who else would want to deal with Concubine Qi? ”

Yin Rui replied: "The eight-faced Buddha is a scheming person, not to be underestimated, I suspect that this matter has been arranged by him a long time ago...... I can't imagine that there is still his eyeliner in the palace, it seems that we caught so much last time. There are still a lot of fish that have slipped through the net. ”

"What about now...... How do we do that? Losing Concubine Qi as an ally is a loss of our right-hand man. ”

Liu Yun knew that Yinrui would achieve great things in the future, and Concubine Qi was an indispensable force.

Yin Rui sat on the chair and touched his forehead, thinking about it.

After a while. Only then did he raise his head, look at Liu Yun and say, "I have an idea, but it's very risky. ”

Liu Yun said anxiously: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has reached this point now, what risks and not risks can be talked about?" It's already burning eyebrows, no matter what, we'll try it. ”

Yin Rui whispered a few words in his ear.

The more Liu Yuns listened, the more ugly his face became. In the end, he was so frightened that his face was like ashes.

"Your Highness...... If there is a mistake in this matter, it will be ...... Destroy the great sin of the nine clans! Are we really going to do that? ”

Yin Rui thought for a while but nodded and said, "It's out, as you said, we can't lose Concubine Qi, an important ally." ”

He saw Liu Yun's panicked expression and knew that he was a little scared.

Yin Rui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Remember that this matter can't be publicized, even your father, Liu De, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, can't say it." ”

"Yes, yes, Wechen understands." Liu Yun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said.

After Liu Yun left the Prince's Mansion and went back, Yin Rui summoned the four masters again.

Even if the matter was handed over to the four of them this time, Yin Rui still had a hundred worries, because the matter was very important, and he had to act carefully.

But what if you don't worry?

Concubine Qi's situation is that if it drags on for a day, it will be more dangerous, maybe soon the emperor will execute her, and even if you want to save her, you won't have a chance to save her.

After Yin Rui told the four masters about this plan, their expressions were different, but none of them said that they wanted to quit.

Yin Rui was very happy about this, because their psychological elements looked much better than Liu Yun, who had been involved in the government all year round.

"As I said, if you want to quit in this matter, I will give him a hundred taels of silver and send him away to fly away, and those who complete the task can each get 500,000 taels of silver and an imperial mansion."

Yin Rui didn't promise too much of a reward, because this time he didn't want the four of them to do it just for the bonus.

He wanted to take this opportunity to test their loyalty.

The four masters looked at each other and were silent.

After a while, the mysterious girl, who had always been silent, was the first to speak: "I am going, as long as I have a breath, I will complete the task." ”

Everyone looked at her in amazement, and for a moment, they were actually frightened by her spirit.

Especially the black bull with a blank face, he couldn't imagine that even he was a little timid, this little girl could say such things calmly.

I can't help but admire her a little more.

Not only him, but the other three were also thinking like this.
