"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay, isn't this what it's doing. The people who want to be concubines, we don't treat them harshly, do we? I've wronged you. Steward Zhang smiled: "Suffocated, right?" Let's go first, we'll talk about it later. ”

Zhu Li hurriedly went out to solve the problem.

Steward Zhang had already asked someone to put the meal on the table: "You eat first, I didn't eat here, let's do it together." You're also a little bit back, how can you get someone to stuff it here. ”

"Hey, it's not those individuals who are jealous of our mother." Zhu Li didn't dare to eat it, but when he saw that Steward Zhang also ate it, he was not afraid.

"Well, speaking of which, it doesn't work either. Concubine Yi is already outstanding, and now she has a child, doesn't she want to rise to the top? Those people should be in a hurry. ”

Zhu Li sneered disdainfully, but didn't say anything.

Steward Zhang politely gossiped with him on his face, and looked down on him behind his back.

When he was full of food and drink, Steward Zhang smiled: "Brother, you rest first, Ming'er will be almost over, I will ask someone to bring you a quilt later." ”

Zhu Li thanked him gratefully, thinking that it must be his master who made the silver.

I think that when I go back, I must serve my master well, and I will be more dedicated in the future.

It was late at night, Zhu Li sat and waited for the quilt to be delivered, but he couldn't wait.

At first, he was still serious, but as he began to get sleepy, he gradually couldn't support it.

Leaning against the door, he just closed his eyes.

The door here is wooden, not very strong, and the windows are broken.

After a while, a snake came in through the crack in the door, and three slowly crawled in on the window frame.

Zhu Li died in his sleep.

When it was discovered early the next morning, there were four poisonous snakes around it.

Zhu Li was bitten to death by a poisonous snake.

Not only that, but he also found a purse on his body, which was made by Dark Xiang himself.

And when Zhu Li was taken away, Dark Xiang personally went to the Internal Criminal Division to deal with it.

And it was in that purse that there were herbs that attracted poisonous snakes.

As soon as Zhu Li died, it was naturally not something that could be fooled with casually, this was a natural disaster, and the purse was not provided by the Internal Criminal Division, and naturally it had nothing to do with the Internal Criminal Division.

They push four, five, six.

In particular, Si Zheng, the internal criminal division, is not a eunuch, he is a serious and four-grade imperial court official.

Naturally, he can push clean.

What's more, it is true that Zhu Li died in the Internal Criminal Division, but the Internal Criminal Division has not died as a eunuch.

This one was not killed by torture.

The queen was furious and took all the relevant personnel to Fengzao Palace: "Poisonous snakes? I don't know when it was so unsafe in the palace? ”

"Dark incense, you say, where did you get the medicine that attracts poisonous snakes?" The queen asked angrily.

Dark Xiang couldn't argue, she made the purse, and she didn't know when it was given to Zhu Li for a long time.

There is no special relationship between them, it is nothing more than serving the same master, and she is also attracting eunuchs for her master.

As for the medicine in her purse, she really didn't know about it.

She went to the Internal Punishment Division, just to make a point, and also to let Zhu Li know that the master had not given up on him, and told him to shut up and not talk nonsense.

Who knows, but there is such a conspiracy behind it.

She tried her best to defend herself, but how could anyone believe it?

Even if they believe it, who in this harem doesn't want their master to be unlucky? Where will the truth be told?

It was at this time that the emperor came.

He came with a look of anger on his face.

It really doesn't stop for a day.

The harem women, except for Concubine Yi, are all there. I didn't dare to say a word after asking for peace.

"Your Majesty, it's the concubines who haven't thought it through." The queen rose and confessed.

"Get up, and do not do your business." The Emperor held her up.

"The concubine really didn't expect that the palace would be able to come up with such a medicine casually." It was a brown powder, which was the most attractive to poisonous snakes.

But in fact, those four snakes were not attracted by just such a little medicinal powder.

But now, Zhu Li is dead in his sleep, whether it is this medicine or not, it can only be this medicine.

"Queen, what should we do at this time?" On the way to the emperor, his mind turned eight turns.

He knew that Concubine Yi was innocent, but now, the evidence is conclusive, what about innocence?

There's no way he's going to make a big deal about it.

"Look, the concubine has also been her duty over the years, and she definitely won't do it just after she is pregnant. It's just that all the sisters kept talking, and there were palace servants to testify, and it was true that the palace people in Changle Palace had no rules. ”

The queen was unceremonious, and she didn't consider saving face for Concubine Yi.

She doesn't care much about the emperor's favor, but over the years, Concubine Yi has been favored, and she is also gloomy.

"After all, Concubine Yi has an average background, and there are some who can't discipline palace people. Now that she is pregnant, it is naturally difficult for the concubine to send someone over to worry her. He who is dead now is already dead. If you are alive, the dark incense must not be spared. ”

"As for the rest, Concubine Yi is pregnant and not easy to be alarmed. How about waiting until you have a baby? The queen asked.

This is the best way to deal with it.

Qi Yixiu glanced at the concubines below: "Concubine Feng Shu, Concubine Kangde, what do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty, although Concubine Yi is pregnant, this matter is ...... Seeing such medicine casually in the palace, the concubines are not at ease. The second prince and the third prince, the eldest princess and the second princess are still young. What if I see a snake too? Feng Shufei was smart for a while, and she didn't say anything about having to call Concubine Yi.

But she's not talking nonsense, everyone is worried about this ment.

After all, this is ancient times, and there is basically no salvation if a poisonous snake bites.

What Sister Concubine Shu said also made sense, but the concubine thought that after all, Concubine Yi was pregnant, and now she was making a lot of fanfare, which was not good for her health. Everything still depends on the emperor and the queen's mother. Concubine Kant said.

This time, she didn't blindly disagree with Concubine Feng.

This is a normal reaction, who can not be afraid of poisonous snakes?

"Since you say so, then listen to the queen." Qi Yixiu looked at the other concubines again, and then said: "If it is hot today, snakes, insects, rats and ants are indispensable in the palace, ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to take some realgar and sprinkle it all over again." The internal criminal department is not in good custody, and the prison sentence is punished for half a year. The following stewards have fifty boards, and they are paid a year. ”

"As for Concubine Yi, since this palace maid can't get out of it, let's go to the laundry bureau to do things. You don't have to go to the concubine in the future. Concubine Yi is missing people, so she will make up for it. As for where this medicine came from, I'll talk about it after Concubine Yi gives birth. ”

"Yes, the emperor's arrangement is very reasonable." Queen's Road.

After giving birth?

I won't talk about this after I give birth.

Qi Yixiu got up: "Since that's the case, I'll go back first." I'll come to you for dinner in the evening. ”

The emperor said this to the empress.

The queen responded with a smile: "The emperor walks slowly, it's hot, use more tea." ”

The Emperor nodded and walked away.

Everyone sent off the emperor, and Concubine Feng Shu glared unwillingly.

"Queen, that's what I said. The lives of other people in the harem are not fate? ”
