Mu Qing has been locked in a small room for the past few days, and the surrounding scene has made her very nervous, but there is no way to escape.

There are too many people around here, and there are only windows on the door to ventilate, so it looks like you can't escape.

And her physical condition is very poor, Yuan herself has weak bones, and she is injured, and now she is forced to be locked up here, and no one even comes to treat her, so she has been sick like this.

By the time the emperor brought a message to the empress to release him, Mu Qing was already so sick that he was almost passing out.

Her body was full of wounds of all sizes, and her ankles were already swollen high, looking very terrible, but the officer and soldier who pulled the person out didn't say anything, just threw Mu Qing on the carriage.

Then he drove Mu Qing back to King Jing's Mansion.

Before the carriage was halfway there, Bailichen appeared.

With a cold face, he looked at the driver who was driving, and the driver shrank in fright, still a little scared.

But after thinking about it, he was given away by the emperor's order, and what could Bailichen do to himself.

In the end, this matter is the secret of the emperor's family, and the emperor once secretly hinted that Bailichen should not publicize it.

Since it is the emperor's order, even if Bai Lichen is unwilling, he must do it.

Almost the moment he saw Mu Qing, he regretted agreeing to his father's request.

Mu Qing didn't seem to have a single intact place on his body, and there were abrasions everywhere, especially the wound on his ankle.

"You're doing that to her."

"Third Highness, I was just ordered to give it away, and the Third Highness still don't embarrass me."

Mu Qing in the carriage seemed to have regained a little consciousness, and when he saw Bai Lichen, he smiled slightly.

"You're here."

Bai Lichen was stunned for a moment, his heart seemed to have been hit by something, and he felt faintly painful.

He wanted to hug Mu Qing, but Mu Qing's body didn't have a place where he could start.

Secretly clenched his fists, he vowed to seek justice for Mu Qing.

Xin'er cried almost the moment she saw her mother.

"Niangniang, what's wrong with you, Niangniang!" She threw herself to Mu Qing's side, but she didn't dare to do anything too hard, so she could only grab Mu Qing's hand, and tears kept falling.

Bai Lihong came with Chen Guifei's people in the palace, Chen Guifei was worried about the girl her righteous son liked, and ordered Bai Lihong to come over to see the situation.

Although her background is not as good as that of the queen, Chen Guifei is not as ruthless as the queen.

When Bai Lihong saw this scene, his eyes couldn't bear to put on Mu Qing's body.

"The mother concubine told me that at most she was only slightly injured, how could she be like this, this queen is really too vicious, and she can actually do such a poisonous thing to the third sister-in-law."

He saw Bai Lichen and Xin'er carefully bring the person down, "Be careful, the divine doctor can be in the house?" If not, I'll go into the palace and ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look. ”

In the end, he is simple, Bai Lihong thought very simply, and went to the palace to ask the imperial doctor to treat his third sister-in-law.

But what he didn't expect was that since the emperor asked Bai Lichen to hide this matter, how could he allow Bai Lichen to enter the palace to invite the imperial doctor for the reason of seeing the third imperial concubine.

The disappearance of the three imperial concubines before has already caused an uproar in the capital, and if such a move is made again, the people of the capital will definitely have doubts.

"Qing Ziran happened to come back with me, you don't have to worry, I expected this time a long time ago."

Bai Lichen's voice was cold, he knew that the emperor's family was ruthless, since the emperor was in this position, he was willing to care about a little bit of father-son affection, and let the queen put people back, which was already rare.

He still remembered that the emperor once asked him with a strange look in his eyes, why didn't he just let Mu Qing die like this, and he could also change to a concubine with a higher status and more helpful to him.

But before Bai Lichen could answer, the emperor smiled self-deprecatingly.

"What do you mean, I know best, what my queen is like, don't I understand?"

Today's queen is the concubine when the emperor was still the prince, and after the emperor became the emperor, the former imperial concubine naturally became the queen.

When she was a concubine, she had the support of family forces behind her, and she became an important bargaining chip for the emperor to get the throne, but the rest is more than that.

After becoming the empress, the family power behind her became an obstacle to the emperor and a challenge to the emperor's power.

Mu Qing is just the daughter of a four-rank Shangshu, even if Bai Lichen obtains the position of emperor and Mu Qing becomes the empress, the so-called situation of too much power of the queen naturally does not exist.

"I think you have the demeanor of my youth."

What the emperor said was not subtle at all, and it seemed that he really decided that Bai Lichen was his next heir to the throne.

But Bai Lichen knows the character of his father, he just sighs casually, and he doesn't take his words seriously, his heart is actually biased towards the prince.

Every emperor hopes that his son can be brothers, friends and brothers, but every emperor's son will always experience the Nine Dragons to seize the heir, and there are few good deaths between brothers.

The emperor's statement seems to be beating him but also like encouraging Bailichen to do something, after all, it can be seen from this incident that the prince's qualifications are too mediocre, and only under the backdrop of the four princes can he show a little wisdom, compared with the third prince Bailichen, it is far worse.

Thinking of the emperor's attitude in the palace, Bai Lichen was also a little unpredictable, because of his body, he had not gotten along with his father for many years, so it was naturally impossible to know what his temperament was.

It's just that he can vaguely find out what the emperor thinks by virtue of his previous impressions.

Mu Qing was quickly moved to his bedroom in the back by several subordinates, and Qing Ziran was waiting in the bedroom early.

But when he saw Mu Qing, he couldn't help frowning and made a smack sound.

"This queen is too heavy, although some of these wounds will not die, but it is extremely difficult to heal."

Hearing Qing Ziran's words, Bai Lichen's face darkened a little, he looked at Mu Qing, who was lying on the bed and even breathed a little lighter, he didn't know why he felt a little painful, he hadn't felt this way for a long time, he was poisoned by his most trusted brother because of a momentary negligence.

Forced to pretend to be a waste.

The capital was full of rumors about him, and he had never felt pain for himself, but now looking at Mu Qing who was dying, an emotion that had never sprung up in his heart.

"Okay, you all go out, I'm going to treat her alone inside, her leg injury is very serious, if it is not treated in time, I am afraid that it will leave sequelae, and there will be some ...... when she walks in the future"

Qing Ziran's words were not finished, but Bai Lichen and Bai Li Hong already knew, and the two of them left Mu Qing's bedroom one after another, leaving Qing Ziran alone inside.

"Aren't you going back to the palace and telling Chen Guifei about what happened here?" Bai Lichen reminded Bai Lihong.

Bai Lihong came here today to see Mu Qing's situation for Chen Guifei.

Now it stands to reason that it is time to bring the news back to the palace.

"Third brother!" Bai Lihong slapped his fan on the table fiercely, his tone was a little puzzled, and he was also a little angry.

He never understood what kind of grudge the queen had with Mu Qing, and she had to use this method to deal with her.

"What kind of festival did the queen have with the third sister-in-law, and how did she make the third sister-in-law look like this?"

Bai Lichen just shook his head, some things are inexplicable, maybe from the beginning when Mu Qing helped them drive away the queen and planted those eyeliners on his third prince's mansion, the queen has secretly hated Mu Qing.

Thinking of this, his heart was extremely painful.

He felt that he had harmed Mu Qing.

If I hadn't said those things myself...... Mu Qing won't be ......

"The queen is also a little anxious."

Bai Lichen looked not far away.

The queen's mother's family has gradually weakened because of her father's suppression, and if something happens to the prince in the future and is abolished, the queen's mother's family will have no support at all, and it will no longer be able to become strong.

If a woman in the palace wants to sit in a high position, the most common thing is to have a mother who is all monstrous, and the queen is one of the most powerful.

And the queen was already a concubine in the palace when the emperor was still the crown prince, in terms of her status and qualifications, it is very suitable to be the queen, but because there is a strong mother family behind her, she makes the emperor feel in danger.

"When I asked my mother why the emperor didn't love the queen and doted on my mother, my mother once smiled and said to me that I was too young to understand this, but now I still can't figure it out, and I have to thank the third brother for mentioning it so that I suddenly realized."

Bai Lihong felt a little strange when he was a child, and when his mother was young, she was naturally a first-class beauty.

But after giving birth to him, although he is older, although the charm still exists, it is definitely not as good as those young concubines who have just entered the palace.

Although the emperor has not been drafted in the past two years, there are more concubines in the palace who are more beautiful and older than Chen Guifei.

The emperor favored Chen Guifei, and she was favored for more than ten years.

"The mother's family behind Chen Guifei is not strong, and it is not in the capital, even if the father and emperor give Chen Guifei a monstrous favor, Chen will not be able to make any waves."

Bai Lichen's words couldn't help but make Bai Lihong's heart a little cold, he originally thought that his father really had a little love for his mother, many times he felt that his mother didn't fight, but now he understands that some things are not his mother who doesn't fight, but can't fight at all.

"Chen Guifei has been able to be favored in the palace for so many years, and naturally she has her intelligence, if she is as ignorant as you are, she must have been squeezed down a long time ago, where can she still be stable in the position of the concubine for more than ten years?"

I don't know when Qing Ziran inside has already walked out.

The basin of water held by the maid beside him was already soaked with snow water, and it looked very permeable.

Bai Lichen's heart instantly pinched.

"That's it, third brother, take good care of the third sister-in-law, I'll go back first and tell the mother what happened, presumably the mother will also think about the queen in the palace."

Chen Guifei has a special status, and if her hostility towards the queen is too obvious, it is not good.

Bai Lihong couldn't bear to see Mu Qing's tragic situation anymore, said goodbye, and left the Three Princes' Mansion with his subordinates and returned to the palace.
