The Queen's Bedchamber.

The queen mother closed her eyes and leaned on the soft couch, the personal palace maid Pearl was gently pinching her shoulders, and the bedroom was burning with soothing incense, and the atmosphere was peaceful, which formed a strong contrast with the picture of being surrounded by guards outside.

The eunuch looked outside the door for a while, and then went inside to report: "Queen Mother, those guards are still guarding and haven't left, saying that they are protecting us, but in fact, they must have been sent by the third prince to surround us!" ”

The queen mother said slowly: "If you don't say this kind of thing, this palace also knows." ”

She is not stupid, she has known since those guards came just now, if it was arranged by the emperor or Jiang Qianbai, how could she look fierce and vicious?

The queen mother raised her hand and waved, and the pearl that pinched her shoulder stopped moving, she slowly got up and walked to the door of the main hall to look outside, she couldn't help worrying, and she didn't know what the situation was in the imperial study.

"Will our people be able to go out and find out?"

The eunuch stepped forward: "Niangniang, the entire dormitory is surrounded, and our people really can't get out." ”

The queen sighed, but looking at the current situation, no news should be the best news, as long as there is a stalemate in the imperial study, the people in the harem will be fine.

Pearl walked over with a cloak and draped it on the shoulders of the queen mother, and comforted her softly: "Queen mother, you don't have to worry too much, this matter has been prepared for a long time, and Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince will be fine." ”

"I hope that things can really be in Jiang Qiancheng's control, otherwise, there will definitely be a bloody disaster in the palace tonight!"

"Don't worry too much, it's windy at night, so you better come in and wait."

"It's okay," the queen tightened the cloak on her shoulders: "This palace wants to stand here and blow the wind." The last time I remembered that I was so worried was before I married into the Imperial Palace. ”

"Mother, you ......"

"Needless to say, this palace just saw the situation like today, and felt a little emotional."

"Yes."

The queen mother looked up at the moon in the night sky, and sighed deeply, Jiang Qiancheng, I hope you don't disappoint this palace, if this matter is successfully solved today, this palace will admit that you are the best candidate for the crown prince, and when he ascends to the throne one day, this palace will never object!

Concubine Bedroom.

Concubine Niangniang was sitting in the palace, she knew that tonight was the time when the third prince led his troops to attack the palace, but the waiting time was too torturous, and there was no big movement for so long.

She was a little impatient: "What is the situation on the third prince's side now, why has there been no movement for so long?" ”

The eunuch beside him slowly spoke: "Concubine Niangniang doesn't need to worry, the prince has already prepared for this matter, there will be no mistake, maybe he is just talking to His Majesty in the imperial study at this time." ”

"What else is there to say at such a time!"

Concubine Niangniang was a little angry, the matter of rebellion and forcing the palace is to be solved as soon as possible, the third prince is still in the mood to talk to the emperor in the imperial study? How to do it!

"No way!" Concubine Niangniang suddenly stood up: "If you don't go over to take a look, it's really hard to worry!" Quick, get ready, the main palace is going to the imperial study! ”

The eunuch said: "Concubine Niangniang, there will be nothing to do in the imperial study, you should wait for news in the palace." ”

"Can't you understand what Hongu is saying?" Concubine Niangniang frowned: "The palace said that I was going to the imperial study, so I don't hurry up and prepare!" ”

If it was before, the eunuch might have knelt in front of Concubine Shu and begged for mercy, or hurriedly ran out to prepare the sedan chair, but now, this eunuch was standing there with a smile on his face, and he had no intention of going out.

Concubine Niangniang looked at him: "What are you still standing here for?" Don't hurry up and prepare! ”

"The slave advises that it is better for the concubine to stay in the dormitory, otherwise what will happen to you after you go out is not within the scope of the slave's control."

"What do you mean by that?"

The eunuch walked up to Concubine Shu with a smile, pointed to the empty courtyard outside the palace, and said, "Do you think that our dormitory is a little unusual today?" ”

"Where is there ......?"

Before she finished speaking, Concubine Shu subconsciously took two steps back as if she suddenly realized something, and looked at the eunuch in surprise.

She clutched her chest, her eyes were flustered, originally for tonight's affairs, she had prepared a lot of guards to wait in the courtyard just in case, but now the courtyard is empty, and there are no palace maids waiting!

"Who are you?"

The eunuch smiled: "The slave is naturally the person who serves in the palace of the lady concubine, but the slave is different from those people, and the slave really obeys the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"You! You are actually from Jiang Qiancheng! ”

"So, please stay in the dormitory honestly tonight, otherwise once you step out of here, you will definitely die."

"You!"

The lady concubine covered her chest, her expression was painful, and she looked like she was about to faint, and the palace maid who had been prepared behind her immediately helped her into the room and forcibly pressed her to lie on the bed.

Concubine Shu's eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief: "You are also the people arranged by Jiang Qiancheng to be around this palace?!" ”

The palace maid smiled and said: "Concubine Niangniang, it's late at night, you better rest early, and when you wake up tomorrow, everything will have been settled, isn't it great?" ”

"You...... You unconscionable things! Isn't this palace good for you on weekdays! ”

"Concubine Niangniang should rest," the palace maid took out a handkerchief and covered Concubine Niangniang's mouth and nose: "There are too many things today, you are too tired, go to sleep." ”

The lady struggled for a while, and then fainted.

The palace maid walked up to the eunuch, nodded, and signaled that she had controlled the concubine, and the eunuch also nodded, and then walked out of the concubine's dormitory and walked in the direction of the imperial study.

At this time, in the imperial study, the emperor, Jiang Qiancheng and Jiang Qianbai were still drinking tea leisurely, as if they didn't pay attention to the people outside.

The third prince was a little impatient waiting outside, and was about to let people break into the imperial study directly and take them down, when the eunuch in the concubine's bedroom hurriedly ran over: "Lord, it's not good!" ”

The third prince immediately grabbed his collar: "What's wrong, make it clear!" ”

"It's the lady lady! The lady suddenly fainted! The eunuch looked anxious: "I just sent the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat her, saying that Concubine Shuniang was poisoned, and if she didn't get the antidote within an hour, she would die!" ”

"What?!"

"Please find a way to save the concubine!"

The third prince frowned, gritted his teeth and looked at the door of the imperial study: "Jiang Qiancheng!" ”
