"Your Majesty has arrived, and the Queen Mother has arrived."

The imperial concubine was about to bite Ping Ning Bo Zhou Jian and not let go, but she didn't want the emperor to arrive at this moment, but she regretted that she was so fierce, so she hurriedly gathered her expression and slowly moved to the door, "See Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed." ”

The emperor's voice was slightly low: "Why is Concubine Ai so angry?" It's really hurtful to be angry. ”

The imperial concubine was not so annoyed for a long time, and she had already squeezed out a weak and helpless look, "Your Majesty, Ping Ningbo broke into the palace late at night, and the concubine was wondering, didn't you ask Ping Ningbo?" ”

After saying that, the imperial concubine looked at the emperor followed by a group of people, and saw the crown prince Lin Jiao, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Oh, what's wrong with His Royal Highness the prince?" Why are your sisters here too? ”

There was a panicked and frightened look on her face, "Come on, come on, Your Highness is coming into the house to rest, how can this be?" ”

The emperor's voice was still low: "Let's go in and talk." ”

A group of people have entered the inner hall of the imperial concubine, the Zhaode Palace of the imperial concubine is specially built by the emperor for the imperial concubine that day, the palace room is far beyond the east and west six palaces, it is very spacious and huge, the whole palace is second only to the queen's Kunming Palace and the queen mother's longevity palace, and the hall of the three entrances is naturally enough to accommodate so many people.

"Where's the Imperial Doctor?" The emperor said impatiently, "How long has it been, do you want the prince to heal himself?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the Tai Hospital is far away from the harem, and it's night, and there are locks everywhere, so it's naturally slower than usual. The concubine has already ordered someone to go to the medicine department to ask the medicine lady, so let's relieve it for the time being. ”

The emperor looked at the crown prince Lin Jiao, who was leaning on the side of the crown princess, and saw the blurred appearance of his right forearm, he tried to feel the pain of his child, and naturally felt that he was very uncomfortable.

Although I don't like this child, but after all, it is my own blood and bones, how can I not cherish or love it at all.

He looked at Zhou Jian on one side again, he was more seriously injured than Lin Ji, Lin Jian was only a forearm, but Zhou Jian was a blur of flesh and blood on his entire left arm, and the flesh and skin were exposed with scorched black blood, like a devil's black hole that was about to devour people's blood, and he trembled.

"Ji'er, Jian'er, you guys go inside and sit down. It's really ...... to be hurt so badly" The emperor's tone couldn't help but be much gentler, and at this moment, he had the appearance of a loving father.

Lin Jian and Zhou Jian both stood up in unison, and Lin Jian said respectfully: "Father, it doesn't matter if the son is injured, I don't dare to suddenly enter the palace of the imperial concubine, just sit outside." ”

Zhou Jian also said: "The minister is too, although he is injured, he can just sit." ”

The emperor nodded, and immediately the night doctor from the Tai Hospital came, first to diagnose and treat Lin Zhang, and then showed Zhou Jianxiang, and said: "Your Highness's injury is not serious, but you have to recuperate for a while, and you have to take medicine from time to time, and the wound must not be infected." ”

"Ping Ningbo's injury is more serious, but as long as he takes care of it, he is not afraid."

The emperor took a long breath, put his mind at ease, and instructed the imperial doctor: "Get some medicinal herbs for them, and be foolproof." ”

The imperial physician replied respectfully, and after the imperial physician retreated, the emperor sighed again and said to the concubines: "That's it, since the prince is fine, you should all go back first." ”

"Yes, the concubine retired."

The concubines retreated in order, and the hall returned to an empty appearance.

The imperial concubine became more and more uneasy, and the qi cloud on her face could not be dispersed.

"Your Majesty, since it is a matter of Your Majesty's father and son, the concubine will retire." The imperial concubine could only use this to test the way.

"Don't be, you are also an elder, come and listen, care about the prince." Emperor Lin Ji said.

"Yes." The imperial concubine hid her weak tone, but she began to panic in her heart, and now the situation in front of her was clearly something she hadn't expected.

The queen looked at the imperial concubine lightly and said softly: "Imperial concubine, just now you said that Ping Ningbo broke into your palace room, what is the matter?" ”

When the imperial concubine thought about it, she had to say: "The concubine is also curious, don't have any misunderstanding." It's just that the tone is not as strong and cold as Fang just now.

The emperor nodded, but he couldn't bear to reprimand Zhou Jian, "You kid, you are getting more and more unruly, why are you still trespassing into the palace of the imperial concubine?" If you turn back, you have to ask Sister Ah to discipline you well! ”

If it is usual, Zhou Jian will be like seeing a cat and mouse when he hears his mother, the eldest princess of Chongqing, but this time he is not afraid, only slightly arched his hand, and his face is awe-inspiring, "Uncle, I didn't deliberately disturb the peace of the imperial concubine, but the Qingning Palace went to the water, not providence, but man-made, the minister was chasing the two cheap maids who set the fire, but found that these two cheap maids actually ran to the palace of the imperial concubine, for fear of accidents in Zhaode Palace, so they broke into the palace of the imperial concubine." ”

The atmosphere was much colder again.

The imperial concubine stood up from her seat: "Your Majesty, concubine...... The concubine really doesn't know! ”

Without waiting for the emperor to answer, the queen spoke first: "Imperial concubine, Your Majesty hasn't asked you yet!" Don't worry, let's listen to what Ping Ningbo has to say. ”

Zhou Jian knelt upright, but because the kneeling action was too eager, it touched the wound a little, bringing pain that affected the nerves.

He frowned so that he tried not to speak out of pain, but this scene was seen by the emperor, and the emperor couldn't help but ponder again.

If the fire is not put out in time, it is his own son who is in such pain now.

"Your Majesty, the minister was invited by His Highness today to come to Qingning Palace to accompany His Highness to play chess to relieve his boredom. When he fell asleep at night, the minister couldn't sleep, so it was convenient for Qingning Palace to walk around, but he saw smoke rising from the firewood room in the backyard, which seemed to be walking water. The minister went over to look, but saw that the firewood room had long been out of shape, and everyone was fighting the fire in the chaos, but these two cheap maids took advantage of the chaos to escape from Qingning Palace. Zhou Jian pointed to the two kneeling on the ground and said resentfully.

These words were very informative, and the emperor naturally looked solemn when he heard this, and he couldn't help frowning.

However, Zhou Jian's subsequent words made the emperor directly blackface.

The minister thought to himself, shouldn't everyone in the palace put the master's life first? Qingning Palace went to the water, that is, the two highnesses were in danger, as slaves and maids, they didn't know how to help their masters get out of danger, but thought about running first. If you go to call someone, it's just a matter of running in the direction of Zhaode Palace, do these two cheap maids still want to be unfavorable to the imperial concubine? ”

Zhou Jian said while looking at the expressions of the first few people, only to see the imperial concubine's eyes flickering slightly, but he pretended to be calm, he had some bottom in his heart, and only continued: "The minister chased the two people, but saw that these two people actually climbed into the Zhaode Palace from the dog hole in the imperial concubine's mother's palace. ”

He pointed at the two of them and said angrily: "Your Majesty, these two people are very suspicious, they know Zhaode Palace so well, they can't let these two cheap maids go, otherwise wouldn't it be dangerous to Niangniang?" ”

The emperor's face was already blue and purple at this moment, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the imperial concubine: "Fang Rui, how could these two people enter your Zhaode Palace?" ”

The imperial concubine was very panicked, and only shook her head: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the concubine really doesn't know." This ......" After saying that, the imperial concubine rushed out of her seat, and slapped the two palace maids with two slaps: "Cheap maid!" If you don't go to save Your Highness, what are you doing here in this palace? ”

"Don't be angry, the minister is really curious, why my people will come to find Niangniang!" Lin Ji, who had been silent on the side, suddenly responded.

"What does Your Highness mean? Is it said that this palace has something to do with your Qingning Palace? ”

"How dare you? It's just that these two people were ordered to be locked up in the firewood room for reflection because they made mistakes, but they didn't want the firewood room to catch fire today, so the two of them were able to escape and run to the Niangniang Palace. is so familiar with the structure of Niangniang's palace, don't have a plan for Niangniang. ”

"His Royal Highness said this with empty tongues, but this palace doesn't understand." The imperial concubine still held her face, but her eyes turned to the emperor on the side: "Your Majesty, the concubine really doesn't know what His Highness means." ”

"Father!" Lin Ji knelt on the ground and said earnestly: "These two intend to murder the sons and princesses, and poison the pills of the sons and princesses!" Erchen had no choice but to lock these two up, but he didn't want someone to try to set fire to Erchen today, and he wanted to burn Erchen! These two people were tied hand and foot by their sons and locked in the firewood room, how could they react so quickly and come out? ”
