The one hundred and seventy-third poisoned the middle palace
"Wasn't Concubine Rong Niangniang's right-hand man the queen's right-hand man before?" Yu Guang swept away Rong Concubine, and Qi Ge pretended to be puzzled.
It has only been a few months since he entered the palace, where would he know so many old things. Besides, on weekdays, Empress Xu and the Rong family look harmonious, and the two rarely have a head-to-head confrontation. In addition, when she entered the palace, the Rong family had been degraded. And she has been living in Penglai Palace since she entered the palace, and it is reasonable that she will speak out to help Concubine Huixian today.
Although Qi Ge's words were unintentional, Empress Xu still frowned and swept her eyes, with disgust in her eyes.
"Let the queen smile, Meng Meiren is still a little younger." Concubine Huixian raised her eyebrows and chuckled, and her tone was soft, "Thanks to the queen mother, you and Rong Niangniang have worked together to make the harem so peaceful these years, and the two mothers have contributed a lot." And the concubines can only share the trivial matters for you because of the queen's recommendation, and whether things are done well or not depends on the queen's mother. ”
Concubine Hui Xian said this very cleverly, not only avoiding the path of offending the two parties, but even taking herself out. After hearing this, he slowly hooked his lips, stared at Rong Concubine and snorted lightly, his pupils turned and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Seeing that the hour was not early, Concubine Rong resigned to Empress Xu and planned to return to her palace. The moment she got up, she somehow fell to the ground with a weakness in her knees. At the same time, a white porcelain vase rolled out of her sleeve and landed in front of Meng Yige.
Concubine Rong couldn't help but be stunned, and her eyes were full of surprise. How could that white porcelain vase roll out of his sleeve so well? She didn't know what it contained, but her keen instincts over the years of being in the harem told her that there wouldn't be anything good in it.
"This porcelain vase is so beautiful~" Yi Ge picked up the porcelain vase on the side of the skirt with a happy face, and fled around with a rich aroma as she opened the porcelain vase. Suddenly, she frowned and said in surprise: "Wait...... The smell is so strange!"
With a pun, Empress Xu's eyes were obviously attracted by her words, and she also looked at her together with Concubine Rong.
"Queen Mother, concubine is brave, may I ask what kind of incense you usually smoke in the palace." When Yi Ge spoke, the expression on his face was particularly solemn, and even his voice was a little more eager.
Empress Xu swept her eyes and said in a deep voice: "Yuexixiang, but is there any problem?" ”
"The mother forgives her sins, and the concubine doesn't dare to say it." Yi Ge knelt down and bowed, his tone was full of fear, and he whispered: "Please also take care of your body, Niangniang." ”
The bull's head is not the horse's mouth, which makes people wonder. Empress Xu raised her eyes and glanced at Mama Zhou, who bowed her head slightly, and Mama Zhou immediately withdrew a group of palace maids to serve outside the palace. The remaining concubines in the hall glanced at Concubine Huixian suspiciously, and when they saw that the other party also had a strange look, their hearts were slightly relieved.
"Whatever you have to say, just say it." Xu Hou held the tea and said lightly.
After sweeping around, Yi Ge raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, can you let the concubine take a look at the medicine you take on weekdays." ”
"Mama Zhou."
Mama Zhou, who was called her name, took a medicine bag and handed it back
Yi Ge, Yi Ge took the medicine bag and rummaged through it carefully, and after sniffing it carefully, he looked at Xu Hou's eyes with a little more firmness and a little bit of fear.
"The queen concubine doesn't dare to hide from you, the medicine you take and the incense in your palace are two things that are compatible. This is the root cause of your poor health all these days!" At this point, Yi Ge suddenly looked apologetic and sobbed: "If the concubine had discovered these problems earlier, she wouldn't have let you take the medicine for so long. ”
Looking at the sobbing appearance of Qi Ge, Xu Houfeng's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, "Then how did you know now?"
"Because...... Rong Niangniang's porcelain vase contains... Carrots. The aroma of this thing is very different, and when the concubine can smell it, she remembers that she seems to have smelled the fragrance of the moon's breath in your palace. When Yi Ge finished saying this, the whole person fell to the ground, and looked at Rong Concubine in panic. It was as if these words had exhausted all her strength.
However, Concubine Rong, who was in the center of the storm, glanced at Yi Ge lightly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes. As for Xu Hou's eyes, he was also a little richer, but he couldn't see joy or anger on his face.
"Queen Mother, you won't suspect your concubine because of this little beauty, right?" Concubine Rong smiled, and her tone was extremely calm. It didn't look like it was affected in the slightest.
Regarding Concubine Rong's provocation, Empress Xu didn't mean to pay attention to it. After all, this matter at the moment may become a help for her to completely bring down the Rong family, "Concubine Rong, what are you doing in such a hurry?" How this matter should be decided by His Majesty, Mama Zhou will also send someone to invite His Majesty. ”
As soon as Emperor Li drove to the main hall of Li, what he saw was a cold face of Empress Xu and a sneering look of Concubine Rong, on the other hand, Concubine Huixian and Meng Meiren were calm. I couldn't help but sigh with emotion in my heart.
Taking advantage of the gap between Emperor Li stepping onto the phoenix throne, Concubine Huixian glanced at Emperor Li. In Emperor Li's body, Concubine Huixian sensed a trace of suppressed anger.
After sitting down, Emperor Li glanced at Concubine Rong, and the coldness in his eyes was unusually chilling. Concubine Rong hurriedly put away the ridicule on her face and changed her look of horror.
"What happened to the queen, I have to ask me to decide." took the tea handed by the palace maid, and blew away the white mist and said leisurely.
Hearing this, Xu Hou got up neatly and walked down the steps, bowed his knees and bowed in a solemn tone, "Your Majesty, someone in the palace is poisoning the middle palace!"
A few numbers landed on the ground, and there was a sound on the ground.
Concubine Huixian and Yi Ge raised their eyes to look at Queen Xu at the same time, and a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes.
There are no cumbersome sentences, and there is no need to state too much about what happened. Poisoning the four characters of the Middle Palace is enough to set off stormy waves in the entire imperial court.
In the hall, Empress Xu knelt straight, and her phoenix eyes revealed a sense of grief and fear. Emperor Li glanced at the faces of several people around him, and his gaze moved back to Empress Xu and motioned for her to get up and speak.
Only then did Empress Xu tell the truth of the matter, and looked at the change in Emperor Li's expression. Suppressing the smugness that flashed in his eyes, poisoning the middle palace is not a small crime.
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Rong suddenly bowed her knees and said loudly: "What the hell is going on, please ask Your Majesty to find out!" Don't be fooled by the villain!"
Hearing this, Empress Xu frowned and snorted lightly, and reprimanded angrily between her words: "Ming Cha? Isn't this porcelain vase rolling out of you? How else do you want to find out? Do you have to die to let you stop!"
This is a very serious statement. Concubine Rong's face changed, things have come to this point, if these people are not colluding to murder her, she doesn't believe it, but she has no evidence in this matter. And in front of his eyes, he did roll off a porcelain vase from himself.
Thinking of this, Concubine Rong couldn't help gritting her teeth, it was obvious that the queen wanted to get rid of her.
