Strike while the iron is hot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qi Chenjing looked at the Queen Mother, "Back then, the Queen Mother and the King's mother, Concubine Zhuang, were pregnant at the same time, and the Queen Mother gave birth to the emperor's eldest son first, in fact, the truth is not the case at all, the Queen Mother was not pregnant at all, let alone gave birth to the so-called emperor's eldest son." ”
"This can be evidenced by the palace maid Xiangye who served in the Queen Mother's palace back then."
As soon as Qi Chenjing spoke, an eagle guard escorted Mama Zhang into the main hall.
The Praetorian guards guarding the main hall were about to step forward to stop them, but with a slight movement of the Eagle Guard's hand, they easily brought down the two Praetorian Guards.
Seeing the emperor's face at the bottom of his eyes, his face was even more ugly, and the anxiety in his heart was even worse.
Ding Gang didn't come back for a long time, something must have happened outside.
How many people Qi Chenjing ambushed outside, I don't know if Ding Gang can succeed.
And the queen mother's eyes when she looked at Mama Zhang were puzzled, Mama Zhang had been to the imperial tomb for many years, and she didn't remember much about this maid who had served her.
Mama Zhang knelt on the ground and saluted Qi Chenjing, "The slave maid Xiangye served in the queen's palace twenty years ago, which can be verified by the housekeeper in the palace, because the slave maid knows some medical science, so she served the decoction by the queen's side, and when she was serving the decoction, the slave maid found two suspicious things. ”
"If anything is suspicious, you tell me carefully." Lao Zongzheng saw that Qi Chenjing really had a witness, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Toon paused, trying to swallow saliva to relieve the tension, only to find that his mouth was so dry that there was no saliva to swallow.
She took a deep breath before she spoke again, "The slave maid found that the queen never drank the fetal protection decoction sent by the hospital, nor did she use the decoction boiled by the slave maid, but every time the slave maid brought in the decoction, the medicine bowl was empty when she came out, and the slave maid was puzzled, so she paid attention to it. ”
Speaking of this, Mama Zhang's face tightened even tighter, "The slave maid found that those decoctions had entered the stomach of a palace maid named Cai Qing, and the slave and maid didn't know why this was at that time, but later, after the birth of the eldest prince, the palace maid named Cai Qing disappeared, and all the milk soup that the slave and maid boiled in were quietly poured out by Mama Qin beside the queen." ”
Mama Zhang said in a quick breath.
The amount of information in her words was too large, but it did not confuse the people in the temple, but only frightened.
The meaning revealed in Mama Zhang's words is too frightening.
The queen doesn't use tocolytics, but uses a palace maid named Caiqing next to her.
When the eldest prince was born, Cai Qing disappeared.
The queen doesn't need to go back to the milk decoction.
What does this mean?
The queen is not pregnant at all, where did the eldest prince come from?
That palace maid named Cai Qing should be pregnant, right? Otherwise, why should you drink the fetal decoction?
The faces of the emperor and the queen mother were already extremely embarrassed.
Although the emperor has long doubted his life experience, he has not taken the heart to investigate, because there is no impermeable wall in the world, as long as he thinks about it, once he starts to investigate, there will always be rumors revealed.
Once this kind of rumor is known by someone with a heart, it can quickly set off a wave.
The emperor is unwilling to make waves on the ground.
So he deliberately didn't investigate, as long as the queen mother didn't recognize it, he was the eldest son of the former emperor, and he was the rightful saint of today.
The Queen Mother was furious, she had already remembered who Mama Zhang was.

The Queen Mother was furious, she had already remembered who Mama Zhang was.
The maidservants who served in her palace back then stayed in her palace because they knew some medical science.
Later, it seemed that he was degraded out of the palace because of something wrong.
I can't remember exactly because of what the Queen Mother.
However, she remembered that she had not used this palace maid much in her personal service.
The Queen Mother frowned and scolded loudly, "What a wolf-hearted Diao slave, when you served in the Mourning Palace, because you made a mistake, the Mourning Family remembered that you performed well on weekdays, leaving you a life, I don't want you to collude with Qi Chenjing to frame the Mourning Family today, the Mourning Family really regrets that they didn't beat you to death directly twenty years ago." ”
In one sentence, the Queen Mother directly defined the matter as a grudge against the evil slave and colluded with Qi Chenjing to frame her.
Qi Chenjing still put his hands behind his back, and his face was always faint, "Queen Mother, what is the truth, no, but who can decide with a word." ”
The Queen Mother snorted coldly and did not speak.
She has been staring at Mama Zhang carefully, recalling the past many years ago.
Back then, she was eager to ask for a son, and she happened to meet this palace maid who knew some medical skills, so she took her in her palace to serve, thinking that it was not a bad thing to have many palace maids around her who knew medical science.
But later, she took advantage of the opportunity to go out of the palace to save her relatives, and quietly found a doctor who concluded that it was difficult for her to get pregnant, and she was disheartened, and she didn't have the mind to cultivate any henchmen and palace maids to understand medical science, so she left this palace maid behind.
People she doesn't pay much attention to, it is impossible for Mama Qin to arrange an errand for personal service, and it is even more impossible for her to see Cai Qing.
The Queen Mother was convinced of this.
Mama Qin is her grandmother, and she has always been the most relieved to do things.
The Queen Mother stared at Mama Zhang's eyebrows, and intuitively wanted to ask Sun Zhong to come over and ask about what happened twenty years ago.
opened his mouth, and then remembered that Sun Zhong left the palace at the end of the day yesterday, saying that he was going to find out if there were any insiders in that incident, and that Qi Chenjing seemed to have found some clues, and he wanted to confirm it.
It turned out that he still hasn't come back.
Could it be that Qi Chenjing really found out something, so he delayed Sun Zhong?
The doubts in the Queen Mother's heart flashed.
Without Sun Zhong by her side, the palace maids and eunuchs who served beside her were all added one after another, and they didn't know anything about twenty years, let alone know this old palace maid called Xiangye!
Wait, bay leaves? The Queen Mother's brows moved, and her eyes staring at Mama Zhang became even more fierce.
Qi Chenjing didn't care about the Queen Mother's expression, and instructed Mama Zhang, "What else do you know, go on." ”
Mama Zhang nodded, things began, it was not so difficult, she was not as nervous as she was at the beginning.
"In fact, the slave maid did not serve the queen mother personally, but just did some errands to go to the hospital to get medicine and boil medicine, it was because the slave maid did these errands, so some abnormalities were discovered, and after finding that it was wrong, the slave and maid repeatedly tried several times, and determined that the queen was not pregnant at all, and the slave and maid were terrified, because all the people who served the queen in pregnancy and childbirth died one after another, and the slave and maid were afraid that they would die like them, so they deliberately broke the objects rewarded by the emperor and were sent to the imperial tomb."
"It is precisely because the slave and maid are not served by the individual that they can get away with saving a life."
As soon as Mama Zhang's words fell, the Queen Mother suddenly stood up, pointed at Mama Zhang and sneered repeatedly, "Hmph, the story is really good, if the mourning family remembers correctly, you just said that your name is Xiangye, right?" ”
Mama Zhang nodded, "Yes, slave Xiangye." ”
The Queen Mother looked at Qi Chenjing, and the irony on her face became stronger and stronger, "King An colluded with a slave and maid, just like putting such a big crime on the mourning family, please be thoughtful in your work." ”
She turned around, pointed at Mama Zhang, and said sharply: "Back then, there was a palace maid who knew medical science in the mourning palace, but she was not called Xiangye at all, but called Xiangtoon, where did the slut come from, dared to frame the mourning family, and even didn't ask her name clearly." ”
What the? Wrong name?
The ministers underground were all stunned, looking at Qi Chenjing, whose expression was always light, and then looking at the Queen Mother with a mocking face, they didn't know what to do.
And the emperor on the dragon chair still had a blank face, watching the people in front of him fighting back and forth, he just wanted to end everything in front of him as soon as possible.
Shut up everyone!
Lao Zongzheng was also a little stupid, when he came up just now, this Mama Zhang was so convincing that she had been talking for a long time, why was her name wrong?
It can't really be the person Qi Chenjing found, right?
Why don't you even ask your name clearly?
Lao Zong is secretly complaining in his heart.
Lao Zongzheng looked at Qi Chenjing and signaled that he had done his best, and he could only help him get here.
Qi Chenjing didn't have any expression, and directly ordered Mama Zhang, "Go on." ”
Mama Zhang nodded, "The Queen Mother is right, the person who served in your palace at the beginning twenty years ago was indeed not a slave, but a toon. ”
I even confessed it!
The minister standing in the hall was even more confused, and said that he was no longer able to guess anything about the situation in front of him.
Ask for more blessings, don't involve your own family.
Some ministers rolled their sleeves back in an effort to reduce their presence.
The Queen Mother was also a little stunned.
Obviously, Mama Zhang admitted so happily, which was not what she expected.
In fact, so many years have passed, and Mama Zhang did not serve her closely, plus twenty years have passed, Mama Zhang's face has already changed a lot, and it is impossible for the Queen Mother to recognize her.
Will think of the name toon, or because Mama Zhang's words evoked some vague memories for her, she remembered that when she took in the palace maid who knew medical science, Mama Qin also smiled with her and said: "The name of toon is good, there is no need to change it, it is edible and medicinal, but it is also in line with what you want to use her." ”
Staring at Mama Zhang just now, thinking of Mama Qin, I remembered such a thing.
But I didn't expect this old palace maid to admit it happily.
Originally, the Queen Mother thought that if she didn't admit it, she would ask the housekeeper in the palace to transfer the palace maid's file from 20 years ago and pat her on the face.
A palace maid who even has a fake name, what is the credibility of what she says.
Now that she happily admits it, the Queen Mother is a little panicked, she stares at Mama Zhang vigilantly, not knowing what else she wants to say.
Mama Zhang said: "The name of the slave and maid is not fake, the slave and maid are really called Xiangye, and the toon is the sister of the slave and the maid, and it is indeed the slave's sister Toon who served in your palace at the beginning, and the slave and maid served in the palace of Concubine Zhuang at that time. ”
Mama Zhang made a long story short and told the things of the year.
"When Concubine Zhuang gave birth, Toon overheard the conversation between the Queen Mother and Mama Qin, and knew that you instructed someone to put a medicine called 'Soul Parasitic' in Concubine Zhuang's midwifery medicine, Concubine Zhuang was kind to our sisters, and Toon couldn't help but repay the favor, so she hurriedly ran to Concubine Zhuang's Qinglian Palace."
"At that time, the time was urgent, and I was afraid that the Queen Mother would find a flaw and cause death, so a slave and maid took the place of Toon and returned to the Antai Palace, but I didn't expect that this farewell, the slave and maid never saw the toon again."
mentioned her sister Toon, who had been dependent on her for many years, Mama Zhang's face became a little sad and angry.
"Toon's medical skills are better than mine, I thought that she would change back to exchange for slaves and maids after administering the needle to Concubine Zhuang, who knew that you would have a back hand, I was afraid that the soul would not be able to play a role, so I actually created a fire in the Qinglian Palace, so that everyone in the Qinglian Palace died in the fire."
Speaking of this, Mama Zhang couldn't help but stand up and looked up at the Queen Mother angrily.
This is the person who has always been on the high, and she can only look up.
This man killed her fellow sister, her benefactor Concubine Zhuang.
But she couldn't do anything.
can only hold on to the secret and steal a living.
Now she can finally make everything she knows public.
Mama Zhang's heart has an indescribable joy.
didn't know that her words set off earth-shattering waves in the main hall.
There is no most frightened, only more frightened!
The courtiers present, the young ones are just young, and the people who are a little older know about the fire in the palace twenty years ago, and the emperor's favorite concubine Zhuang Niangniang died in the fire when she was about to give birth.
Although there was an investigation afterwards, and a lot of palace maids and eunuchs died, for many ministers, this incident was just a tragic incident in the palace, which only increased their private conversations and speculations, and did not have much other impact.
In addition, Concubine Zhuang is a woman brought back from outside the palace by the emperor, and I heard that her mother's family is not conspicuous, and no one stands up for her, so no one really cares about the truth.
After all, it was not only the inconspicuous Concubine Zhuang of her mother's family who died in that fire, but also the beloved daughter of the eldest princess of Fuyun, the little lord of the Chen family.
After dealing with a bunch of eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, the Chen family did not make any more remarks, and the eldest princess Fuyun, who had the highest royal status, was silent, and outsiders would not provoke this matter.
Later, Qi Chenjing recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, it turned out that Concubine Zhuang gave birth to the prince at the time of emergency, and found someone to take him out of the palace, and what was the truth of the fire at that time, what happened in the Qinglian Palace, although many people have speculated in private, but no one really dares to put it forward.
They are not stupid, who would come up with such a hidden thing to challenge their lives.
This kind of thing obviously has something to do with the harem competition for favor at a glance.
Mentioning this matter clearly, isn't it difficult to get along with the emperor and the queen mother.
But now, what do they hear?
The Queen Mother poisoned Concubine Zhuang and set fire to the Qinglian Palace?
Is what this palace maid said true?
They have heard so much today that they cannot digest it. (To be continued.) )
