"No," Xu Hanyan shook his head, "It's the concubine's idea that is too dirty, and it's all the concubine's fault, so I came to ask the queen for the guilt and ask the lady to punish her." [No pop-ups.]"

Duanmu Youning smiled bitterly: "Concubine Liang doesn't have to be like this, this palace said that all this is because it is too coincidental, and it is inevitable that it will be easy to misunderstand." But now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, Concubine Liang just needs to raise the baby with peace of mind, and give birth to the little princess smoothly first, are you afraid that no prince will be born in the future?"

Xu Hanyan was very grateful: "Yes, thank you for the queen's magnanimity, and the concubine is ashamed." The concubine knows that she is definitely not as good as the queen's mother, but if she can have the heart of the concubine, she will not misunderstand you. ”

Duanmu stared: "Concubine Shu?"

"Yes," Xu Hanyan nodded, after the rumors spread, "That time the concubine happened to meet Concubine Shu in the Imperial Garden and talked about this topic, Concubine Shu said categorically that it was all nonsense, the queen's heart is like a mountain spring, clear and transparent, without impurities, and she will never do such a thing." She also said that you don't dare, but you just disdain. ”

Duanmu Youning heard this, and a faint relief appeared in his eyes: Concubine Shu, I really didn't misunderstand you, you are my real bosom friend. I'm afraid this harem will only depend on you in the future.

Although Zhen Ruxue still regards her as her biggest enemy, fortunately, the misunderstanding with Xu Hanyan has been resolved, which can be regarded as giving her some comfort. However, Zhen Ruxue's safety is still the thing she is most worried about, so she has to send someone to inquire quietly from time to time, and she will be a little relieved to hear that she is safe and sound for the time being. In fact, she didn't want to hope that she was wrong, but when it happened, she was helpless.

In the dormitory, Zhen Ruxue was reclining at the head of the bed, and Qiao Lianying was sitting in front of the bed, peeling grapes for her, and put them in her mouth when they were peeled. After eating a few grains lazily, Zhen Ruxue shook her head: "Mother, I don't want to eat it." ”

Qiao Lianying stopped her movements and looked at her abdomen: "Ru Xue, how do you feel today, there's nothing uncomfortable, right?"

"Mother, I'm fine," Zhen Ruxue shook her head, "You don't still think about the queen's words, right? ”

Qiao Lianying hurriedly smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, I don't believe it, she's talking nonsense." ”

"Of course," Zhen Ruxue raised her head proudly, "Don't you see I'm very good? I can eat and sleep, and my belly is getting bigger day by day, and there is nothing to do at all, so don't worry about her." ”

I hope God blesses, it will really be fine, Qiao Lianying prayed secretly, peeled a few grapes and put them in her mouth, but felt that the taste was the same as chewing wax, where was the slightest taste?

"Snowball, don't run, snowball, don't run!"

While the two were talking, there was a sudden anxious call outside the door, and before they could react, they saw a snow-white thing swoop in, and in the blink of an eye, they ran somewhere.

Zhen Ruxue was suddenly startled: "Mother, what is it?"

"Don't be afraid," Qiao Lianying held her hand and comforted her, "I look like some kind of dog or cat, I'll go and see." ”

As soon as she stood up, a palace maid came to report: "Qi Yu Niangniang, Concubine De's maid said that the cat raised by Concubine De Niangniang accidentally ran in, and I hope that Niangniang will allow her to come in and take the cat out." ”

Sure enough, it was a cat, Qiao Lianying frowned: "Why are you so careless?

Zhen Ruxue didn't care much, and then said: "It's okay, mother, I also had a cat when I was a child, I'm not afraid of that kind of thing, let her come in and take the cat away." ”

After getting permission, the palace maid turned around and left, and after a while, Concubine De's maid Dong Wei walked in cautiously, and hurriedly pleaded guilty: "Please forgive the sin of Concubine Xian, it's all because the slave maid has never looked at and taken care of it, so she let it run around, please punish the mother." ”

Zhen Ruxue waved her hand lazily: "It's okay, it didn't scare the palace anyway, you hurry up and look for it, take it away, the doctor said that pregnant people should stay away from these cats and dogs." ”

"Yes, yes," Dong Wei nodded in agreement, looking everywhere, calling as she looked, "Snowball, Snowball come out, Snowball!"

However, just as she turned to the right, the cat suddenly burst out from the left side, and Qiao Lianying hurriedly shouted: "Here, come here!"

When Dong Wei heard the sound, she immediately stepped forward and pressed the cat: "Snowball, don't run around, be careful to scare Niangniang, come back with me...... Hey, what's in your mouth?"

Her voice was suddenly full of surprise, which immediately attracted Qiao Lianying and Zhen Ruxue's attention. The two looked at each other and found that the cat had a palm-sized rag doll in its mouth, and the most important thing was that the rag doll had a lot of needles on its face and body!

Instantly thinking of a possibility, Qiao Lianying's face immediately changed: "Quick, give me that rag doll!"

Dong Wei didn't dare to slack off, and immediately snatched the rag doll from the cat's mouth, and handed it over tremblingly: "Madam, when the snowball came, I didn't hold this thing, this thing was found from here." ”

This rag doll is made of bright red satin, and the cat is snow-white, if she had this doll in her mouth when she came just now, it would be absolutely impossible for Qiao Lianying not to see it, so she nodded: "I know, show me quickly." ”

snatched the rag doll and looked at it, she couldn't help gritting her teeth: the doll was clearly a newborn baby, wearing a red belly pocket. It's just that the person who made this doll is obviously not very good at female red, so the workmanship is very rough, although the head, body and arms are barely separated, the lower body is not separated from the appearance of two legs, but sewn together randomly, like a fish's tail, indescribably funny. What's more, this doll has many needles on her face, and the thickest one is pierced in her heart, which looks very weird and makes people's hairs stand on end. Obviously, this is someone using witchcraft to curse the child in Zhen Ruxue's womb!

Qiao Lianying soon trembled, gritted her teeth and said, "This is too much! Who did it?! Who is so vicious and actually curses you!?"

Zhen Ruxue had already straightened up and snatched the rag doll, when she saw the doll's appearance, not only was her face instantly pale without a trace of blood, but she trembled all over, her eyes were full of resentment, and she squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Also, who else can it be, of course it's her! Only she doesn't want my child to be born smoothly, have you forgotten? She has always wanted me to kill the child!"

"Who?"

Before Qiao Lianying could react, Zhen Ruxue suddenly jumped out of bed, grabbed the rag doll and ran away. She was startled, and immediately followed: "Ruxue, don't run around, where are you going?" Be careful, don't fall, be careful of the child!"

Zhen Ruxue is going to the direction of the imperial study, if this happens, how can she do it without telling Brother Yun? Running to the door, she gritted her teeth and said without waiting for the guard to speak: "Go and tell Brother Yun, I have something important to see her, and I will die if I am late!"

Hearing her say so seriously, the guards naturally didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went to report, I don't know if they were really afraid of accidents, or Tanglin Guyun was in a good mood today, and after a while, the guards came out and saluted: "Niangniang, the emperor invites you in." ”

Where did Zhen Ruxue wait for him to say the second sentence, she immediately bypassed him and rushed into the imperial study, rushed straight to Tanglin Guyun and slammed the rag doll in front of her: "Brother Yun, take a look, you still said that the queen won't harm me, look at the good thing she did!"

Although witchcraft has existed in ancient times, it has always been hated by people, and Tanglin Guyun is no exception, seeing that strange-shaped rag doll, he instantly understood what was going on, and his face was already gloomy: "What did you say?"

Because of her anger, Zhen Ruxue trembled all over, and she tried her best to get here, and after taking a breath at this moment, she only felt weak and dizzy, but she still gritted her teeth and said: "Brother Yun, do you still want to defend her? Look at what good things she has done? She really wants to harm my child, you should believe it this time, right?!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Tanglin Guyun had already gotten up and went over to support her: "Ru Xue, you say slowly, what's going on? Who do you say this rag doll belongs to?"

"Who else could it be, of course it's the queen's mother!" Zhen Ruxue grabbed Donglin Guyun with her backhand and gasped hurriedly, "Brother Yun, this rag doll was put in my palace by the queen, and she deliberately told you that my child had a problem before, just to cover up all that she did!"

"This is impossible," Tanglin Guyun immediately shook his head, "Youning will never do such a thing, Ru Xue, don't talk nonsense." ”

"Brother Yun, you ......" Zhen Ruxue's face was full of shock and despair, and she staggered under her feet, "At this time, you still don't believe me? The evidence is conclusive! What kind of poison did you fall for the queen, and you believe in her so much?"

Tanglin Guyun's face was gloomy, and he let go of her hand and said: "I am not poisoned, I just believe that Youning is open-minded, and will never do such a thing, someone must have framed her." ”

Zhen Ruxue stared at him closely, slowly shook her head, and her face was full of sadness: "Brother Yun, you have disappointed me so much, you have always been a good emperor who is wise and martial, why can't you hear anything in front of Duanmu Youning, can't see anything? Are you willing to be played around by her, like a fool?"

"Ru Xue, don't talk nonsense!" With a scream, Qiao Lianying had already broken in, knelt on the ground with a plop and slammed her head: "The emperor forgives the emperor!"

Tanglin Guyun was not angry because of this, but his eyes returned to his usual coldness, and he said indifferently: "Get up first." What is going on, tell me in detail. ”
