As soon as Zeng Rong heard that the emperor was coming, he first secretly said no.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhu Xu came in, he saw Ye Zi who was slumped on the ground and the palace maid and eunuch who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and immediately understood what was happening, took a few steps forward, bowed down to the Queen Mother and said, "Queen Mother, leave this matter to your son to deal with." ”

"No need, the mourning family is not old enough to distinguish between right and wrong, here is handed over to the mourning family, the son still takes care of the queen first, what does the imperial doctor say, the queen is awake?" The Queen Mother said coldly.

"After returning to her mother, the queen is not out of danger, and the queen mother has enough experience, so why don't the queen mother go to see it for her son, and borrow the blessing of the queen mother to bless their mother and son safely." Zhu Xu begged in a low voice.

In fact, he didn't know what was going on here, but he only heard Ah Chun say that Zeng Rong was taken away by the aunt in charge of the queen's side, and that the aunt in charge searched Zeng Rong's house and left with a purse embroidered with a bamboo bear pattern as incriminating evidence.

Of course, Zhu Xu knew that this matter could not be relied on on Zeng Rong's head, the bamboo bear ornament had been on his desk for a year, Xiao Shi'er liked it before, and he had opened his mouth to ask him once, but he didn't agree, and that time Xiao Shi'er accidentally broke the glass cover of this ornament.

This time, Xiao Shi'er took advantage of his absence to take away the ornament for several days, but there was an accident last night, but it happened after Zeng Rong refused to enter Yaohua Palace, although he has not yet found out the truth of the matter, but he believes that it was definitely not Zeng Rong's doing.

Therefore, hearing Ah Chun's request for help, Zhu Xu hurriedly came over and wanted to ask for a favor for Zeng Rong, but when he entered the door, he saw Zeng Rong standing calmly in front of the kang edge, but the palace maid and eunuch kneeling on the ground, without asking, he could guess that it was the queen mother who was interrogating them.

If something happens to the queen, naturally it will not be done by the cronies around her, excluding Zeng Rong, the biggest possibility is A-Yao.

If Ah Yao's crime is really confirmed, this matter will be troublesome in the future, if you really want to deal with Ah Yao, not to mention whether he is willing to give it or not, Yu Zhu Wu's influence is also very great, and his family affairs may not be able to be saved.

But if he doesn't deal with it, what do the other concubines in the palace think of him, and what do they think of A-Yao? spread the word, I am afraid that those courtiers will have to impeach him again, and this time it is about the queen, and with the support of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, it is definitely not something that he can fool in a few words.

Not to mention, this matter is a matter of royal face, he is an emperor, and he has been impeached by the ministers again and again because of the affairs of the harem, where is the dignity and prestige of the emperor?

Therefore, the top priority is to suppress this matter, as long as A-Yao's incriminating evidence is not confirmed, the follow-up will be much easier.

The Queen Mother knows too well what her son is thinking, many years ago, Zhu Heng was pushed into the well because her son stopped her, so that for so many years she has been ashamed of this grandson and Zhu Heng's biological mother, and now the same thing happens again, she doesn't want to tolerate it anymore.

But she can't ignore her son's face, her son is not an ordinary person, he is the current emperor, if such a mess spreads, it will hurt the face of the royal family and the face of her son.

The Queen Mother is also in a dilemma.

"Son, you just listen to the words of the queen mother, people's hearts will change, and it is precisely because of your connivance again and again that there will be evil one by one. . . ." The Queen Mother spoke bitterly, but halfway through her words, she saw the people kneeling on the ground, so she had to change her words: "That's it, there is no need to say more, you are also this age, I hope you will think twice." ”

After that, the Queen Mother closed her eyes and waved her hand.

Seeing this, Aunt Yuan hurriedly retreated from the crowd on the ground, and Zeng Rong also took the opportunity to leave, leaving only the mother and son in the house.

After touching a cup of tea, Zhu Xu came out of the house, with a black face, his steps were not as strong as before, and his knees were still a little bent, Chang Dezi saw that he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and without waiting for Zhu Xu to ask, he took the initiative to say that someone inside had just come out to spread the word, saying that Queen Wang had woken up.

When Zhu Xu heard this, he didn't care about anything else, and helped Chang Dezi out through the main hall and into the delivery room in the west.

Zeng Rong did not leave at this time, she and Zheng Jiao were together, both of them had a lot to say, but there were so many people around her, it was obviously not the time to talk, but she did inquire about the latest situation of the queen, saying that she was red, and she also broke her amniotic fluid, drank oxytocic medicine, and was giving birth.

Of course, the words of life or death were Zeng Rong's own guesses, and Zheng Jiao would never dare to say it.

Zheng Jiao wanted to ask Zeng Rong how he was involved, but it can be seen that Zeng Rong kept her mouth shut, and she had to keep her mouth shut.

After an unknown amount of time, Amei came with a food box, but this food box was not for Zeng Rong, but for the Queen Mother.

It turned out that Zhu Heng also learned that Zeng Rong was taken away by the queen's people, and he was originally going to come in person, but he was stopped by Aunt Wang, saying that the queen was having a difficult birth, and it was impossible to take care of Zeng Rong, and most of them were taking people to the queen mother or the emperor for questioning.

So, he sent someone to Cining Palace, and learned that the Tai Consequence was really in Kunning Palace, so he ordered Amei to come and not dare to come openly, looking for an excuse to send meals to the Queen Mother.

After asking the reason, Zeng Rong sent Amei to the door, she didn't go in, and Amei went to see the Queen Mother by herself.

The Queen Mother glanced at Amei, who was submissive, and then glanced at the food box in Amei's hand, and asked, "Heng'er knows?" ”

After getting Amei's reply, the Queen Mother's face sank, "Who chewed the root of the tongue in front of him?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, the slave doesn't know, it seems that someone has come to find the master." Ame replied in fear.

The Queen Mother glared at Amei with disgust, didn't ask any more, and ordered Amei to open the food box, presumably knowing that she had no appetite, so she only prepared half a pot of hot porridge and four light side dishes.

Ah Mei did not leave after putting things in order, and bowed down and handed a pair of ivory chopsticks to the Queen Mother, "Empress Dowager Qi, the Second Highness told the slaves and maids to be sure to guard the Queen Mother before leaving after using this porridge, and the Second Highness said, Don't forget your old man, you are also his imperial grandmother." ”

The Queen Mother had already taken the chopsticks, and when she heard Amei's last words, she couldn't help but put the chopsticks down again, thinking of what had happened, she felt that her chest was getting more and more uncomfortable, so she had to gasp for breath.

Coincidentally, there were five or six imperial doctors guarding the main hall, and when they heard that the queen mother was unwell, Liu Yuan envoy hurriedly came in with the imperial physician Zeng, and both of them gave the queen mother a pulse, and the imperial physician Zeng picked up the silver needle.

Amei on the side was frightened and overwhelmed, but fortunately, Zeng Rong heard that the Queen Mother was unwell and came in with the imperial doctor, and just stood beside Amei, supported the crumbling Amei, and took her out of the east room.

Zeng Rong wanted to know what Amei said to the Queen Mother, otherwise, Amei would not be scared like this.
