Chapter 275: The Empress Shelters

Gao Yuanshang held the heart of blessing from misfortune, got up and said: "No matter who did it, the main reason for this matter is from blood ginseng, and the imperial concubine also admits that the blood ginseng is from her hand, so the imperial concubine is directly suspected, but for the sake of the imperial concubine who is pregnant with the imperial heir, this king will exempt her from the death penalty, pass on the king's order, and from today onwards, abolish her title as imperial concubine, confine the cold palace, and dispose of it after the imperial heir is born safely." ”

How could Mei Xin watch Song Anle being wronged, so she didn't care about any understanding, so she hurriedly rushed out and knelt in front of Gao Yuanshang, and said eagerly: "The eldest prince and princess were wronged, these blood ginseng were sent to Hu Xiaozhu by the slave maid herself, and the slave and maid promised that she would never be passive, you must be aware of this matter, and you must not wronged our imperial concubine like this." ”

Hongzhu also hurriedly knelt down and said: "The slave also used her life to guarantee that the imperial concubine was wronged, and I hope that the eldest prince will be gracious." ”

Chen was beside him, with a contemptuous face, and said in a voice that was neither high nor low: "What kind of master, what kind of slave there is." ”

Gao Yuanshang was still expressionless, no matter whether there was a grievance against Song Anle in this matter, she was only to blame for her bad luck, and she was indeed the most suspicious, so he said arrogantly: "This palace maid has conspired to cover up the crime and pull it out to die." ”

"Wait." Song Anle finally spoke, she could accept everything she was facing, but she couldn't affect those innocent people, not to mention that Mei Xin was her maid in the palace, even if she couldn't give her a good prospect, at least she couldn't kill her.

Song Anle was inconvenient due to her body, so her kneeling behavior seemed a little bulky, but fortunately, the Liu family on the side stepped forward to help her, and she knelt beside Mei Xin, and said solemnly: "The concubines are willing to accept all the punishments of the eldest prince, but these palace people are innocent, they are just dedicated to protecting the lord, so they will offend the eldest prince, and I hope that the eldest prince will remember the old love and spare their lives." ”

Gao Yuanshang could vaguely understand that Song Anle's old feelings that he knew about the past must refer to those interactions outside the palace, he reviewed it slightly, but he almost couldn't come back to his senses for a while, if it weren't for everything Song Anle did himself, he would not have completely wiped out the only good feelings in his heart, he might not be so ruthless to her, but what she did was the most unacceptable bad for him.

However, for Song Anle's punishment, he already has selfish intentions, so there is no need to kill, it can be regarded as accumulating virtue for the child he lost, so he said coldly: "Come on, bring them all down." ”

"Wait." Before the palace people could act, with a strong and authoritative order, I saw the queen walk in with a domineering momentum.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly bowed and said, "The sons and concubines see the queen mother." ”

"Let's all be flat." The expression on the queen's cold face was in line with the prestige that no one dared to look at directly, so everyone cautiously stepped aside.

And when the queen left, she happened to hear the report of Hu Xiaozhu's accident, she has seen this kind of thing a lot, and she is used to it, but it is a pity that she has a small life, but the purpose of her coming is precisely for the inside story.

The queen glanced at Song Anle on the ground, and her anger suddenly boiled, she originally thought that she just wanted to come to investigate Song Anle's methods, but she didn't want her to be implicated.

"I don't know that the imperial concubine is pregnant, so she can't give a big gift?" The queen said angrily: "Don't hurry up and help the princess up." ”

Everyone didn't dare to slack off, with Mei Xin on the side, Liu finally dared to support her openly, so Song Anle also got up immediately, but the overdrawn body still made her look a little tired.

"Thank you for your love." Song Anle didn't forget to bow her head and signal, the reason why she was not afraid of Gao Yuanshang's punishment was precisely because the queen would not ignore her.

The queen glanced at everyone with cold eyes, and she said arrogantly: "What you just said, this palace already knows, the Hu family has lost their beloved son, and this palace is also very sad, but the matter has come to this, we can only face the facts, but there are many doubts in the facts, it is said that there is a safflower found in the blood ginseng, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

"After returning to my mother, it was the presence of safflower in this blood ginseng, and it was Hu Shi who took this blood ginseng, which led to a miscarriage and almost died." Gao Yuanshang handed the brocade box in front of the queen, but he had nothing else for the queen's appearance except for an ominous premonition.

The queen, who had already learned the details, glanced at the blood ginseng, and then she said: "These blood ginseng are rare treasures, and they are also the tonic given to the imperial concubine by the palace, how can they appear here now?" ”

"Back to the queen's mother, the concubine learned that Hu Xiaozhu was very angry, so she kindly sent half of the blood ginseng to make up for her body, but she didn't want the blood ginseng to be manipulated, and inexplicably more safflower appeared, which eventually led to the loss of Hu Xiaozhu's beloved son, and the concubine was guilty."

"The imperial concubine kindly helped the Hu family to repair the fetus, what is the crime?" The queen glanced at everyone coldly, and then said: "Besides, the imperial concubine also said that the blood ginseng was manipulated, so this culprit is the real culprit." ”

The Chen family did not hesitate to have such a good opportunity to Dao Song Anle, you must know that now Concubine Wu is grounded, if Song Anle can abolish her position again, she is the best candidate, so she said seriously: "The queen mother doesn't know, the princess has been seized before sending the blood ginseng to Hu Xiaozhu, so the princess has the greatest suspicion of murder, and I hope that the mother will punish this matter heavily." ”

The queen glanced at the Chen family, and said with full authority: "According to what you say, the blood ginseng is from Changxing Palace, so is there a major suspicion in this palace?" ”

Chen immediately realized the seriousness of this matter, so she said in a panic: "The concubine has no such intention, and she hopes that the mother will atone for her sins." ”

"This palace believes that this matter is definitely not the work of the imperial concubine, if anyone dares to question the imperial concubine, it is questioning the palace." The queen raised her head again and ordered: "Come, bring the people in charge of the palace here." ”

The little palace maid hurriedly knelt down and said, "The slave maid is here, please command." ”

The queen looked at the little palace maid condescendingly, and asked, "This palace asks you, is there anyone else who knows about the storage of blood ginseng?" ”

Facing the queen's momentum, no matter who it is, it must be a little awe-inspiring, so the little palace maid said very respectfully: "Hui Niangniang, because the blood ginseng is precious, the slave maid has always been placed in the hall in the open eye, and the palace people who are waiting in the palace also know it." ”

"So, the safflower in the blood ginseng is very likely to be mixed in by someone else?" The queen seemed to be asking, but it was more like highlighting the main point.

When the little palace maid heard this, she immediately said nervously: "Niangniang atonement, the slaves and maids are all doing their best to serve the little master, and they will never dare to do anything to frame them, and I hope that Niangniang will see it." ”

The queen didn't want to ignore any details because of the nervousness of the little palace maid, so she eased her tone and said: "You don't have to be nervous first, this palace doesn't suspect that you are framing your master, but during this period, has anyone come to visit your master, or have you had the opportunity to do anything to the things in the palace?" ”

"This" The little palace maid thought about it, it was a major crime, of course she didn't dare to talk nonsense, but in the face of the queen's questioning, she didn't dare to slack off, and after a little recollection, she bowed her head and said: "Hui Niangniang, recently, only Liu Xiaozhu and Bai Liangdi often come to visit our little master, and sometimes they will talk to the little master, and the slaves and maids are happy to see the master, so they are not overly disturbed." ”

When Liu heard this, she thought that she would also be implicated, so she took the initiative to step forward and said: "Back to the queen's mother, the concubine did come to visit Hu Xiaozhu twice not long ago, but due to Hu Xiaozhu's poor health, the concubine did not dare to come to disturb often, but the concubine only came to leave for a while, and never touched anything in the palace, and hoped that the mother would be aware of it." ”

The queen turned her gaze to Bai Huaqing again, but she seemed calm, but her eyes were lowered expressionlessly, making people look down on the strangeness in her eyes.

The reason why Bai Huaqing is not afraid is because she knows that Song Anle will not put her to death, and Gao Yuanshang is even more unlikely to ignore her, if she really faces no one to care, she would rather die.

The queen stared at her white painting, although she looked down on the look in her eyes, but her cold and arrogant appearance was very similar to the shadow in her memory, and she suddenly felt a faint pain in her heart, but she still said coldly: "Doesn't Bai Liangdi want to explain this?" ”

Bai Huaqing guessed that since the queen did useless interrogation, she must have already had a countermeasure, and it was impossible to involve Song Anle at the moment, and she no longer paid attention to the result, and there was no room for reversal, so she said coldly: "The clean person is self-purifying, and the concubine doesn't want to explain." ”

In the queen's eyes, a deep light squinted, and the stubbornness of Bai Huaqing, even if she did something wrong, she would not bow her head and admit her stubborn temper, which was exactly the same as her stubborn mother.

But the queen can't miss the opportunity because of this, no matter what kind of punishment she makes to Bai Huaqing, her starting point is always for the overall situation and her good.

Song Anle secretly observed the queen, she was worried that the queen would not bear to attack Bai Huaqing, so she said in a timely manner: "Queen Mother, these two people are seriously suspicious, and the concubine asks for a heavy punishment for this matter, as a warning." ”

Gao Yuanshang didn't want Song Anle to be so vicious, and he didn't even let her go of Bai Huaqing, so he said eagerly: "Queen Mother, there are still many doubts in this matter, and the son asks for instructions to personally find out this matter, and he will never wronged anyone, but he will never let the wicked go unpunished." ”

The queen was dissatisfied with Gao Yuanshang's unscrupulous protection, so she still said coldly: "Why didn't the eldest prince realize many doubts when he convicted the imperial concubine? ”

Gao Yuanshang locked his eyebrows deeply, and said with a gloomy face: "Erchen is ashamed. ”
