"What?" The emperor looked at Concubine Rong Xian.

"Actually, when the concubine came, there was another thing I wanted to report to the emperor." Concubine Rong Xian hesitated for a long time and spoke.

The emperor's face was full of impatience," he said. ”

Concubine Rong Xian stood up and blessed the emperor, "Yes." ”

"Yesterday afternoon, the concubine took Mingzhu to the Imperial Garden, I thought that no one would go to the Imperial Garden at this time, but I didn't expect the concubine to meet the noble person in the Imperial Garden."

"Noble Ke?" The emperor was puzzled, and seemed to be a little unable to remember.

Qiu Gonggong reminded in a low voice on the side, "It is the daughter of the Deng family, the niece of Concubine Jin, who was fortunate to be visited by the emperor in Zhaochun Palace before, and was named a nobleman and given Ke." ”

The Emperor nodded, but his face darkened.

Didn't he make a decree, and the Deng family's married daughter would not be spared? Why didn't this noble man deal with it?

There was a hint of coldness in the emperor's eyes when he looked at his father-in-law, "Your Majesty, at that time, Concubine Jin was ordered by the emperor to enter the cold palace, and there was no punishment for the nobles, and the palace people did not dare to assert themselves, after all, the nobles were the newly sealed concubines of the emperor, and the palace people did not dare to figure out the emperor's thoughts. ”

After hearing this, the emperor looked at Concubine Rong Xian and motioned for Concubine Rong Xian to continue.

The concubine felt novelty for a while, so she stepped forward to greet the nobles. However, when the nobleman saw the concubine, he hurriedly saluted and left. Concubine Rong Xian recalled the situation at that time.

"When Ke Guiren left, the concubine saw what Ke Guiren was holding tightly in his hands, and the concubine didn't know much about these flowers and branches, and she didn't care too much."

"At that time, Chaoyang came to look for the concubine, and met the nobleman, Chaoyang and the concubine said something, and the concubine felt that she still needed to come and report it." Concubine Rong Xian stopped here and looked at the emperor, waiting for the emperor to speak and let her continue.

The emperor raised his hand and motioned for her to continue, and Concubine Rong Xian continued as if she had been pardoned.

"The rising sun."

"Mother." Chaoyang stood up.

"You come on."

"Yes." Chaoyang arched his hand towards Concubine Rong Xian, walked to the center of the hall, and made a gesture towards the emperor, "Father, when the son was with his adoptive parents before, he saw many common flowers and plants, and he also knew that some flowers and plants had the effect of medicinal herbs. ”

"The wife of the previous adoptive father's brother used a mixture of flowers to make the adoptive father's brother's concubine misconceived, and when the adoptive mother and the son talked about it, the son was very surprised, so he remembered it very clearly."

"That mixed floral scent is tuberose and canna."

After Chaoyang finished speaking, everyone in the hall looked at Chaoyang incredulously, and even the emperor's eyes looked at Chaoyang a little complicated.

Chaoyang didn't seem to see everyone's strange eyes.

'Boom'.

The sunny day, which was originally clear and sunny, suddenly overcast, accompanied by thunder, and in an instant, the rain came down, and the rain came too fast, and everyone had not yet reacted.

It's just that the people in the hall don't care about the change in the weather at all, and their whole minds are on what Chaoyang hasn't finished talking about.

"Yesterday, Erchen went to look for his mother and returned to the palace, and when he was about to arrive at the imperial garden, he saw a woman dressed as a concubine, although he didn't know who she was, but Erchen remembered very well that what she was holding in her hand was tuberose and canna."

After Chaoyang finished speaking, he straightened up and looked at the emperor straight, not dodging or dodging.

The emperor stared at the rising sun for a long time before he looked at his father-in-law.

"Back to the emperor, the servant remembered that there were these two kinds of flowers in the imperial garden, but the two flowers were a little far apart, so that no one paid attention to them."

Ask your father-in-law for an explanation.

Come on.

This is clear and straightforward.

Chen Guifei was the happiest in the palace, which proved that it had nothing to do with her, even if the emperor wanted to blame it, it was just a crime of poor supervision.

Compared to the imperial heir, it doesn't matter.

The scales in the emperor's heart are also clear.

"Go and bring the nobles." The emperor ordered.

"Yes." Ask your father-in-law to answer the call and order someone to bring the nobles.

......

"The rising sun." The emperor looked at the rising sun.

"The son is here."

"You are a man, but also a prince, a prince I have high hopes for, you have to understand, you know, you don't learn those useless things in the house, you can't be too childlike, what you have to learn is to see the long-term, far-reaching, understand?" The emperor gave teachings to the rising sun.

Chaoyang listened carefully.

"Yes, son."

"Hmm." The emperor said lightly, "Let's see, how is Concubine Jiang and Li Guiren." ”

"Concubine, let people take a look." Chen Guifei hurriedly spoke.

The emperor was silent.

Concubine Chen Guifei sent the palace maid into the side hall to check the situation.

Moment.

The palace maid came out and replied, "Back to the emperor, Niangniang, Concubine Jiang and Li Guiren's bodies have been cleaned up, and now they have drunk medicine and fallen asleep." ”

Chen Guifei looked at the emperor and waited for the emperor to speak.

"Let's see, why haven't they brought it yet?" The Emperor continued to bang on the table.

Qiu Gonggong hurriedly ran outside the palace, and was about to ask someone to go to Zhaochun Palace to have a look, when he saw that the palace people who had just been sent to Zhaochun Palace came back, "What about people?" ”

The foreheads of the people in that palace were sweaty, and their bodies were drenched because of the rain, "Ke Guiren...... He's dead. ”

"What?" begged his father-in-law to be shocked, "Hurry up...... Hurry up and report it to the emperor. ”

"Yes."

begged the father-in-law to bring the palace people into the palace, "Please say hello to the emperor, the noble concubine, the virtuous concubine, the king, and the princess Mingzhu." ”

"Get up."

"Your Majesty." The palace man stood up, and the place where he had just knelt was also wet, "Your Majesty, your honor...... He's dead. ”

The palace man repeated what he had just told his father-in-law.

"When the slave arrived at the Zhaochun Palace, the entire Zhaochun Palace was empty, and the slave went to the residence of the Ke Guiren to look for someone, and found that the Ke Guiren was lying on the bed and had no breath."

"What did you say?" The concubine's eyes widened, and she was a little angry.

There was a clue just now, and the person died, can she not be angry?

The emperor glanced at Chen Guifei, Chen Guifei shrank for a moment, although she was silent, but her eyes were fierce enough to look at the palace people, and the palace people sighed that they were unlucky, how could they share such an errand.

"You go on." The emperor looked at the palace people.

"The slave dared to lead people to search for the residence of the nobles, brought some strange objects in the residences of the nobles, and asked the emperor for forgiveness."

The palace people pleaded guilty.

After all, his unauthorized search of the concubine's residence was a great disrespect to the emperor.

"Bring things in." The emperor doesn't mind that it must be fake, but now is not the time to hold accountable.

As soon as the emperor spoke, the palace people presented all the things they had searched and stood in the center of the hall, so that the emperor could see clearly.

Five trays, among which there are herbs, jade pendants, rouge, hairpins, and a sachet.
