Ling Ruo turned a blind eye to the gaze that was placed on him, stepped forward steadily, passed the kneeling person, and saluted to the Wu Ya clan who was sitting on the top, "Erchen knocks on the emperor's mother, and wishes the emperor's mother a long and healthy life." ”

"Get up." Wu Yashi raised her hand, her voice sounded a little lacking in qi, Ling Ruo quickly raised her eyes, and found that Wu Yashi's face was very yellow, even if she applied a thick layer of fat powder, she couldn't hide it, lined with the rust red and light golden longevity pattern brocade on her body, which showed more and more the dark yellow and gray of her face.

Ling Ruo got up as he said, and then said respectfully: "I don't know what the emperor called her son?" ”

Wu Yashi didn't answer her words, but said in a deep voice: "Concubine Xi, are you guilty? ”

Seeing Wu Ya's question, Ling Ruo hurriedly knelt down, and Shui Xiu, who came in with her, also knelt on the ground, only to hear Ling Ruo say: "Please forgive the emperor's mother's ignorance, the son's minister has been staying in the Chengqian Palace recently, and he doesn't know what crime he has committed, and he also asks the emperor's mother to make it clear." ”

Wu Yashi turned his eyes to look at Nala who was sitting quietly in the chair and said, "Empress, you found out about this matter, and it is up to you to tell Concubine Xi that she has committed a crime." ”

"Yes." Nala asked for a debt in the chair, and when she heard what she was going to say, everyone in the hall showed a look of curiosity in listening, although they came one step earlier than Ling Ruo, but they didn't know what happened to Lu Dao, only that the Queen Mother summoned them and ordered them to come to Cining Palace to discuss things together.

Nala said with a serious face: "Concubine Xi, this palace asks you, do you recognize the person kneeling in the hall?" ”

Ling Ruo turned around and came into contact with a pair of hateful eyes, who else but Liu Hua? However, at this time, Liu Hua's face was whiter than a few days ago, and it was the kind of bloodless white, and he was also much thinner, at that time, the four corners of the hall were filled with ice, which was extremely cold, and his forehead was covered with sweat, Ling Ruo knew that these sweats were caused by his weak body.

She said with a faint smile: "Back to the queen's mother, the concubine recognizes that it is the deputy hospital Zhengliu Imperial Doctor, who used to stay in Yikun Palace with Imperial Doctor Jin to take care of the third elder brother. ”

"Three days ago, you sent Imperial Doctor Liu to check his pulse, but for some reason, when he knelt down, he stepped on the back of his hand, causing a wound on the back of his hand that resembled being pricked by a needle, and he has been bleeding since then, is there a problem?" As soon as the queen said this, everyone who heard it was surprised, it was not impossible for the wound to stop bleeding, but it was a major injury, or a blood vessel burst directly, and it would kill people in an instant. A single eye of a needle, even if you don't care about it, will stop the bleeding by itself after a while, how can it keep bleeding? Those who are wise and wise have already thought that Imperial Doctor Liu's wounds must have been passive hands and feet, causing the blood to be unable to coagulate.

Ling Ruo listened quietly, the queen really didn't dare to say the day when Imperial Doctor Liu was really injured, that day happened to be Hongsheng's funeral, and Imperial Doctor Jin snatched the knife and attempted to kill Liu Hua. If it is revealed, it is too troublesome to explain, and it is easy to provoke herself and hurt herself.

In the worried eyes of Wen Ruyan and the Guerjia clan, Ling Ruo said with a blank expression: "Empress Qiyu, the concubine did summon Imperial Doctor Liu because of a headache, but she has always been treated politely, and then Imperial Doctor Liu left, when did the concubine step on him?" Moreover, the concubine has no grudge against Imperial Physician Liu, so why should she step on him and harm him? ”

"This should be asked to Concubine Xi herself, how does this palace know." Nala didn't follow Ling Ruo's words, but turned his face and said, "Huang Eniang, do you remember Hongsheng?" ”

Wu Ya's already gray face was even more unbearable because of this sentence, she looked at Nian's body that trembled obviously, and said with a little pity: "The mourning family naturally remembers this hard-working child. ”

Nala's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "The third elder brother was killed by Imperial Physician Jin, but the mastermind behind Imperial Physician Jin has never shown up, and this matter has always been in the hearts of the emperor and his sons, and it is difficult to let go. ”

"Queen Mother, could it be that Imperial Doctor Liu's injury this time is related to Hongsheng?" Nian Shi heard the clue from it, and excitedly grabbed the handrail and asked, anything related to Hongsheng made her extremely concerned.

"This palace also just learned about the Dao." Nala sighed heavily, and said to Wu Ya's family: "Huang Eniang, early this morning, Liu Hua came to see Erchen, saying that he was the main messenger behind the scenes of Imperial Doctor Jin of Zhilu Dao, and when Erchen asked, he learned that it was Concubine Xi. ”

"Impossible!" The first to speak out was Wen Ruyan, who got up excitedly and said: "How can the queen mother identify that she is Concubine Xi based on Liu Hua's words, besides, if Liu Hua knew Lu Dao, why didn't he say it in front of the emperor that day, this is not reasonable at all." ”

"Concubine Hui, don't talk for the time being, listen to the queen continue, the mourning family believes that since the queen said it in front of so many people, she must have considered the words of Imperial Doctor Liu. Queen, are you right? Wu Ya's words are not only for Nala to continue, but also to warn Nala that every word he says later must be reckless, and must be substantiated.

"The emperor is right." Nala naturally knew that it was not easy for her to say these words, but since she came, she must use Liu Hua to act in a good play.

Although Wen Ruyan didn't speak, she didn't sit down, staring straight at Nala, wanting to see what she said later, although Guerjia was not as excited as Wen Ruyan, her face was also gloomy.

"Just the day before the third elder brother's funeral, Concubine Xi went to the dungeon, right?" Seeing that Ling Ruo did not deny it, she said again: "But presumably Concubine Xi never dreamed that not long after you entered the dungeon, Imperial Physician Liu also went, he was thinking of a meeting with Imperial Physician Jin, and wanted to persuade him to confess to the chief envoy, so as not to be punished by Ling Chi, but after entering, he accidentally heard the words of Concubine Xi and Imperial Physician Jin, and also knew that Concubine Xi was the one who was the mastermind behind the scenes." ”

"If Imperial Physician Liu had known about this, why didn't he say it in front of the emperor that day?" In the face of the queen's obstinate frame-up, the Guerjia clan was also a little uncontrollable.

"Imperial Physician Liu wanted to say it, but he was afraid of Concubine Xi's revenge, and then Imperial Physician Jin went crazy and wanted to kill Imperial Physician Liu. After relieving himself, Imperial Physician Jin was already dead, and Imperial Physician Liu was afraid that he would end up with the same fate as Imperial Physician Jin, so he didn't dare to say much, but he had been subjected to the bequest of conscience for the next few days, and it was difficult to sleep peacefully. Unexpectedly, in the end, Concubine Xi still refused to let him go, and moved his hands and feet, wanting him to leave blood and die. Speaking of the back, Nala sighed again and again, "Sister, how can you be so ruthless!" ”

"Queen Mother! The Queen Mother! At this time, Imperial Physician Liu, who had been kneeling still, let out a terrible howl, and tore the gauze on his hand, and sure enough, he saw that the small wound had been bleeding, "It's Weichen who is weak and useless, and he doesn't dare to expose Concubine Xi's evil deeds, so that she is in charge, please make the decision for Weichen!" ”

Wu Yashi ignored Liu Hua, just stared at Ling Ruo, who was as calm as before from beginning to end, and said, "Concubine Xi, what do you have to say?" ”
