Chapter 178: Death Without Repentance
Gardenia looked back, but saw Wenchun shaking her head with a solemn expression.
Suddenly, Gardenia came back to her senses and stood in place with the anxiety in her heart.
She was also in a hurry for a while, how could she forget, the more this form of crisis, the more she had to calm down, and she couldn't embarrass her mother!
What if you accidentally disrupt your mother's plan?
Fortunately, Wen Chun stopped himself in time.
In the main hall, the atmosphere was very serious, and no one dared to speak first, except for the queen and Concubine Chen, no one could see anyone's depth.
Jin Yantang sat on the main seat, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes.
Can his Lan'er solve this problem? Even though she knew that this was a game, the queen's trick came suddenly and was unguardable.
Soon, his eyes darkened, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At the same time, Fu Qingxi hurriedly walked in with Mama Chen.
"Your Majesty, Mama Chen brought it."
After Fu Qingxi respectfully saluted Jin Yantang, Mama Chen also followed behind her and saluted the Queen Mother and Jin Yantang.
The Queen Mother frowned, looked at Mama Chen, and asked in a deep voice: "Mama Chen, mourning and asking you, where did you get this cream?" ”
Mama Chen knelt on the ground and said tremblingly, "Go back to ...... Returning to the Queen Mother, this cream was obtained by the slave maid from the Queen Mother. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes on the queen changed a little.
The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, and then became furious, angrily slapped the table and pointed at the queen: "What else do you have to say?" Empress! ”
But the queen was calm and calm, and she didn't panic at all, she only looked at Mama Chen lightly, and asked with a smile: "Mama Chen, then can you know where this clotting cream came from?" ”
As soon as these words came out, it seemed that the form was suddenly reversed.
It seems that Mama Chen still has something to say just now!
I saw Mama Chen swallow her saliva, and continued to add: "The last time the queen mother visited Concubine Chen, she saw that a girl in her palace was good at mixing ointment, so she asked her for this recipe, and also handed the cream to the slave maid, and the slave maid was fine when she used it, but it has been ...... since then."
"Since then, when the last box of cream is almost used up, the palace maid has disappeared......"
Originally, when Mama Chen said the first sentence, the Queen Mother was relieved, thinking that Mama Chen really did not betray her, and His Majesty would not punish her again!
But in the end, she tried her best to keep Mama Chen, but Mama Chen did not repent and stabbed her in the back!
In an instant, the Queen Mother's face changed, and the color of her pupils gradually deepened so that people couldn't see the emotions inside.
It's just that her hand holding the chair tightly betrays the anger in her heart.
After a while, the Queen Mother slowly closed her eyes and said to Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty, this matter will be handled by you with full authority!" ”
The implication is that how to deal with Mama Chen, she will not interfere!
In the main hall, Mama Chen naturally heard the meaning of the Queen Mother, after all, the master and servant have been together for so many years.
Suddenly, her body trembled.
Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and after glancing at Mama Chen condescendingly, she looked at the queen again, and said quietly: "May I ask the queen mother, what are you going to do next?" ”
To unlock the bell, you have to tie the bell, and if you want to unlock the trap of the queen, you have to start with her.
It's just that the queen's move came too suddenly, after all, Fupu and Yuan Ge haven't found anything yet. The egg hurts
The concubines and concubines are equivalent to coming to see the excitement today, and listening to the words between the two of you, I just feel that it is extremely exciting.
No one was chattering or making discordant noises, and they were all staring at the two of them intently.
The queen did not shy away from looking directly at Shang Kelan, and said with a dignified attitude: "Concubine Chen, don't misunderstand, this case is not to see what the palace wants to do, but how Your Majesty wants to try it." ”
As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at Jin Yantang, and said with an innocent expression: "The concubine thinks, Your Majesty should not make a gesture of covering your ears and stealing the bell, and help the real murderer, right?" ”
As soon as these words came out, he basically wanted to cut off Jin Yantang's favoritism to help Shang Kelan.
It is also she who wants to strangle Shang Kelan's last bit of hope in the cradle.
Shang Kelan said unhurriedly: "The queen can rest assured, Your Majesty is upright, don't make a mistake in guessing Your Majesty's character." ”
As she spoke, she suddenly hooked her lips and smiled, her eyes flashed and she looked at the queen and said, "After all, speculating on the holy will is also a big rebellion!" ”
Hearing this, a smile flashed in Jin Yantang's eyes.
He nodded, and said lightly to the queen: "The queen is too worried, as Concubine Chen said, I will definitely find out the murderer who really murdered the queen mother." ”
As soon as the words fell, he instructed the palace maid outside the main hall again: "Someone, go and bring me the palace maid Liu Mei who blends the cream!" ”
"Slaves obey!"
The palace maid guarding the door retreated, but she glanced at Shang Kelan with a worried expression, after all, she had been in Xianya Palace for so long, and she had never heard of a palace maid named Liu Mei.
Just when she was about to leave the palace, the queen suddenly spoke up and stopped: "Your Majesty, please wait, please listen to the concubine, the concubine thinks that Concubine Chen will definitely let people hide the palace maid Liumei everywhere, why don't you let people search for it?" ”
Shang Kelan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at the queen unkindly.
Is there a person named Liu Mei in her palace, she couldn't be clearer, make up a trumped-up character, can the queen come up with this person?
Shang Kelan wants to see what kind of medicine she sells in her gourd!
So, she hooked her lips and smiled, and said, "The queen is right, Your Majesty, please send someone to find it, and the concubine also wants to see what this willow plum looks like." ”
On the side, Zhao Kehan heard this, looked at her suspiciously, and said, "Oh? Could it be that Concubine Chen, you haven't seen this palace maid yet? ”
Shang Kelan chuckled lightly and said, "Concubine Jianiang said that she laughed, there has never been a woman named Liu Mei in Xianya Palace, let me ask, where did this palace start?" ”
Now, things are getting more and more interesting.
Why did the queen say that Liu Mei existed, but Concubine Chen said that Liu Mei was fictional at all?
Who is true and who is fake, we have to search to find out.
Seeing Shang Kelan say this, Jin Yantang didn't wait any longer, waved his hand at Fu Qingxi, and said, "Take someone to search, be careful not to damage anything in Xianya Palace." ”
As soon as these words came out, they instantly aroused the jealousy of everyone.
I only knew that Jin Yantang doted on Concubine Chen, but I didn't expect him to take such good care of Concubine Chen!
Shang Kelan curtsied and said softly, "The concubine has thanked Your Majesty." ”
So, Fu Qingxi and a group of people waited to search for Liu Mei.
This may be Fu Qingxi's fairest person, today's incident is obviously the process of the queen and Concubine Chen murdering each other, no matter which side wins or loses, it will be beneficial to Concubine Jia.
Therefore, he only needs to act according to Jin Yantang's orders.
It's just that here, Fu Qingxi just walked away with a group of people, but an inner attendant hurriedly walked into the main hall and reported: "Your Majesty, Wang Yifeng, the head of the guards, has caught a suspicious palace maid!" ”
