Book Departure (1)
News came from the Zhu family that Princess Guanghua had a miscarriage due to a frightened nightmare.
In fact, Princess Guanghua's sudden miscarriage is very strange; Originally, Princess Guanghua was already a stable fetus, and she had given birth to a child before, so why would she have a miscarriage due to a frightened nightmare.
Princess Guanghua quietly told Zhu Jiming that she had been as uncomfortable as a needle prick in her lower abdomen recently.
The princess's aunt was very alarmed when she heard this, and said that if she did this, she would look like a witch.
Witches and other things are common to everyone, but they are things that people use to curse their enemies; But if it's a foreign trick, then it's a different matter.
"Witch?" Princess Guanghua's face turned pale with fright.
"Princess, this matter should be reported to Your Majesty. Cursing with witchcraft is a great sin of rebellion. "The aunt who married looked terrified, witch Gu has always been taboo, from ancient times to the present, anyone who is involved in a relationship with witch Gu has a bleak ending; And Princess Guanghua is just a princess who has already left the cabinet, how can people curse her.
Princess Guanghua felt miserable in her heart, reached out and carefully stroked her lower abdomen, and lowered her head and refused to speak again.
Although Princess Guanghua's miscarriage is not known whether it is really related to witch Gu, Zhu Jiming entered the palace to report the matter to Emperor Chengji; Emperor Chengji was furious when he heard this and ordered a thorough investigation. From ancient times to the present, since the matter of witch Gu, it is bound to set off a bloody storm.
Xie Lan was very sad when she heard the news of Princess Guanghua's accident, and Xuan Jinhuan showed Xie Lan the truth found out by Yunyan Pavilion: "The people around Princess Guanghua have problems, but I don't know why the people behind them are doing this." ”
Princess Guanghua's miscarriage was not as sudden as the Zhu family said, if it was said that there should have been a premonition half a month ago. The people around Princess Guanghua secretly drugged Princess Guanghua, which would make people have nightmares and pain in her lower abdomen like pins and needles; Until Princess Guanghua had a miscarriage, no one seemed to have found out that it was caused by being drugged.
But who will be secretly murdering Princess Guanghua, this is not possible to investigate for the time being.
In fact, this situation is also familiar; Once when Princess Guanghua gave birth to her eldest son Zhu Yueze, there was an accident and almost killed two corpses, and now Princess Guanghua's second child is inexplicably gone.
It was the people of the Ning family who murdered Princess Guanghua's mother and son back then, and the Ning family tried to kill two birds with one stone through the hands of the Yan family, which not only separated the relationship between the Zhu family and the Yan family, but also blamed the Chu family; This time, it is very likely that the Ning family also did it, but I don't know who they want to blame this time.
After Princess Guanghua gave birth, it is said that the princess was not in good spirits; Zhu Jiming also reported this matter to Emperor Chengji, and then sent Princess Guanghua to Zhuangzi in the south of the city to recuperate. Xiao Yue Ze was already able to recognize people and speak, so he also followed his mother to Zhuangzi; Xiao Yue Ze will not make any noise to the princess when he is taken care of by the nurse, and he also hopes that the princess will be in a better mood when she has children by her side.
However, it is also a good thing to be able to leave the royal capital for a while.
Because of the witch Gu matter, the royal capital is also in an uproar, and I don't know what to do with it; The witch theory can only make people uneasy, and no one knows if it will be harmed.
It is said that the servants of the Chu family secretly reported the wife of Taiwei Chu, and was instructed by Mrs. Chu in the palace to curse Princess Guanghua with witchcraft, and buried the puppet engraved with Princess Guanghua's birthday in the northwest corner of Taiwei's mansion.
Emperor Chengji sent people to search the Taiwei Mansion, and sure enough, he dug up a puppet doll in the northwest corner.
Immediately, Mrs. Chu's wife, Liu, was arrested and directly put in prison pending trial. When Taiwei Chu heard the news, he immediately entered the palace and asked to see the emperor to ask for a thorough investigation of the matter, and Mrs. Chu also asked the emperor to investigate thoroughly, they thought that someone should have deliberately framed him with witchcraft; After all, their Chu family and Princess Guanghua are also innocent, why should they harm their mother and son.
In fact, it is not wrong to say that there is no injustice and no hatred, but there are many things in the palace of the royal capital that have no injustice and no enmity and harm to the whole family, who can say for sure!
But if they say who will harm them, they can't tell.
In fact, Mrs. Chu subconsciously felt that it might be done by someone from the Yan family, but if she really said this, she didn't even believe it, let alone make Emperor Cheng Ji believe it.
In her opinion, the recent events are indeed too strange, and she really can't figure out what is going on.
It's just that if such a big hat is really allowed to be buckled on their heads, the Chu family is probably really going to end. What's more, she firmly believes that this matter was not done by her sister-in-law, so it is only possible that she was framed.
Taiwei Chu and Mrs. Chu met brother and sister across the curtain, and I don't know what they said, so Mrs. Chu went to Hanyuan Palace again to ask to see Emperor Chengji; Emperor Cheng Ji thought that Mrs. Chu was still here to intercede for her sister-in-law, and she didn't want to see her, but Mrs. Chu asked the palace people to spread the word that she was not for her mother's sister-in-law, but only wanted to see Emperor Chengji, so Emperor Chengji agreed.
Mrs. Chu asked to leave the palace, saying that she heard that her uncle, who was highly respected in their clan, had come to Beijing and wanted to visit her uncle.
The uncle she was talking about naturally meant the old man Chu Heng.
In fact, Mrs. Chu grew up in the royal capital since she was a child, and the number of times she met this uncle was even more limited.
Hearing her say such a reason, Emperor Cheng Ji's expression was not very pleasant; After all, Mrs. Chu is a harem concubine, even for the elders in her clan, she is not allowed to meet easily, let alone an uncle who has not seen her for decades. Moreover, even if there is any reason why we must meet, it should be that the old man Chu entered the palace to ask to see his wife, instead of letting the concubine ignore the palace rules and go out of the palace to see him in person.
However, because of some special reasons of the old man Chu Heng, Emperor Cheng Ji still agreed to Mrs. Chu's request and let her leave the palace in the name of the provincial relatives, which can be regarded as justifiable.
Mrs. Chu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Emperor Chengji.
"Xiaoqing." Emperor Cheng Ji suddenly called Mrs. Chu's maiden name, "Xinfang, is there any news?" ”
Hearing Emperor Cheng Ji mention his daughter who is still outside without any news, Mrs. Chu was stunned and bowed her head.
Emperor Chengji asked the Chu family to send people to try their best to find Princess Zhaohua, and he secretly sent people to find her; However, it has been almost a year now, and Princess Zhaohua still has no news.
No one knows where Princess Zhaohua is now, and even her eldest sister, Princess Guanghua, who last saw Princess Zhaohua, has not heard from her since she left the royal capital.
She is a woman, even if she is strong in martial arts, it is very dangerous to wander outside alone; How can this reassure Emperor Chengji. It's just that Emperor Cheng Ji saw that Mrs. Chu was busy for Xie Xuan, as if he didn't take his daughter's affairs to heart at all; This made Emperor Cheng Ji very dissatisfied.
Seeing Mrs. Chu like this, Emperor Cheng Ji sighed helplessly after all, and waved her hand to let her retreat.
Only then did Mrs. Chu lean over and said, "The concubine has retired." ”
