As soon as Mu Luozhi entered the door, she saw Concubine Jingde sitting on the top of the main hall, and she was holding a blue and white painted gold thread teacup and drinking tea elegantly.

This is the authority of Sifu Rao, even if the emperor is not in favor of her, but no one in this harem dares to disrespect her.

"Luo Xiuhua has always been a noble person, and he didn't ask the queen for peace some time ago, so I don't know what you are doing in my Jinghe Palace today?" Concubine Jingde said sarcastically, she naturally doesn't like any of these emperors' new favorites.

But because of her identity, she can't trouble them, and today this Mu Luozhi was sent to the door by herself, and Concubine Jingde naturally would not let go of this opportunity.

Mu Luozhi stood in front of her respectfully, and her face did not show any other expression because of Concubine De's ridicule, only to see her respectfully said: "The concubine has always admired Concubine De Niangniang, after all, Niangniang is the first in this harem to give birth to an heir for the emperor, and this honor is indelible." ”

When Concubine Jingde heard her words, her face softened slightly, but she was still a little impatient: "Could it be that you just want to talk nonsense with me today?" ”

Mu Luozhi smiled, and then said with a little sorrow on her face: "The concubine went to Fengyi Palace a few days ago to greet the queen, and even the queen was also worried." Although the concubine is soft-spoken, can't you see someone in this harem covering her with her hand? ”

Concubine Jingde suddenly raised her head and shouted, "What do you mean?" ”

Mu Luozhi still had a little intimacy on her face, and only listened to her: "The eldest prince is the eldest son of the emperor, but since the princess in Changle Palace was born, the emperor's attention has been attracted by that side. Why didn't Niangniang expect the emperor to reprimand Niangniang at this time? ”

Concubine Jingde thought about it, this concubine and Ye Zhaoyi both have their own sons, so naturally they don't think about her son, but Gu Qingwan's womb is a daughter, if she really relies on the emperor's favor for her and forcibly hugs her eldest prince, then what should she do?

Originally, it was a matter of no score, but under Mu Luozhi's hints and Concubine Jingde's own suspicions, it was very good.

And the two had another conversation, Mu Luozhi looked at the shocked expression on Concubine Jingde's face, and got up to say goodbye, and Concubine De had already waved her hand casually to let her leave.

After Mu Luozhi walked out of Jinghe Palace, she looked back at the solemn palace, but she sneered in her heart, a fool should not occupy such a good position.

And Gu Qingwan stood in the middle of the room, silent for a long time, and the child in her hand was already hugged away by Yurong. Hongxi looked at Gu Qingwan with some concern and said, "Master, how are we now?" ”

"How?" Gu Qingwan showed a hint of sarcastic ridicule on her face, and said fiercely: "Trouble, naturally the bigger the trouble, the better, and there are only a few people who can implement such a vicious strategy." If I don't make a big fuss, how can the emperor deal with them? ”

Although Gu Qingwan didn't know who actually attacked her Allure, there were just a few people left and right, including the queen, Concubine De and Concubine Shu.

Just when Hongxi was about to go to ask for a doctor, Gu Qingwan immediately stopped her, and said in an unkind tone: "This palace remembers that the three princes seem to be in poor health all along, I don't know if there is such a situation on the third prince's side?" ”

When Hongxi heard this, his face was also solemn, and he secretly sighed in his heart, even if he is a gentle person on weekdays, when he sees his child being killed, this heart will be poisoned.

Murdering a princess may lead to impunity, but what if there is another prince?

We all hope that we can become the yellow finch in the story of the praying mantis catching cicadas, but in this strange harem, no one is the yellow finch forever.

Concubine Shu is resting on the soft couch, because she wants to recuperate the body of the second prince, she has been closed in this Guan Ju Palace recently. Fortunately, my mother knew the miracle doctor and gave this prescription to recuperate the body, and now I look at the body of the two princes who are getting stronger and stronger. It was Concubine Shu who looked at Concubine Jingde and Ye Zhaorong, and the confidence in her heart was also a little stronger.

After all, a healthy prince is the premise for competing for that position, and Concubine Shu has always known that the hope of the family lies in her.

And just as she closed her eyes to recuperate, she heard a rush of footsteps outside, followed by the crisp sound of the beaded curtain being lifted. And Hongru lowered her footsteps and approached Concubine Shu, and after a while, she said softly: "Niangniang, something happened to Changle Palace." ”

Concubine Shu slowly opened her eyes and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"I heard that someone plotted to kill Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and now Myanmar has sent someone to invite the emperor."

Hearing this, a look of sarcasm immediately appeared on Concubine Shu's face, and she only said: "The princes born by others are all peaceful, but the princesses born to her are tossed in twos and threes." ”

The one who is most dissatisfied with the eldest princess's full moon wine being given the name by the emperor is actually not Ye Zhaorong but Concubine Shu. Her son was born several months earlier than the eldest princess, but before her son could be named, the worthless girl had taken a noble name.

Every time she thought of this, Concubine Shu thought with a little viciousness that such a precious name was not afraid of breaking the girl's hair.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu looked at the willow on the other side and said, "Bring the second prince over." ”

Since the cheap maid who dyed incense was belittled, Concubine Shu felt that the emperor was becoming more and more cold to her than before, and she naturally would not give her head. And this orifice is also a newly promoted big girl, and she has been waiting in this Guan Ju Palace since she entered the palace.

Concubine Shu naturally won't get up to attract the emperor's disgust at this juncture, and the queen is responsible for the harem. Compared with Myanmar, she now wants to pull the queen off the horse, after all, she is already the honor of the four concubines, if she doesn't care about the back seat at all, it's really a joke.

After the willow went out, Concubine Shu immediately lowered her voice and ordered: "Let someone keep an eye on this Changle Palace for me, see what happened, and report to me immediately if there is any movement." ”

At this time, Changle Palace was obviously quiet before the storm, Gu Qingwan personally changed the swaddling clothes for Allure, and soon the imperial doctor came.

I saw Gu Qingwan said sharply to the imperial doctor with a cold face: "You carefully checked the princess's mouth and nose for this palace, and saw if the cotton wool had already entered?" If you can't find something, the palace and the emperor won't be able to spare you. ”

The person on duty today is Imperial Physician Qian, and the people who originally saw Changle Palace felt bad, because this princess is now very popular with the emperor, in case there is a three-long and two-short, the emperor is angry and will scoop up the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor had already heard the general idea on the way here, and what amazed him was that the harem concubines' cruelty methods were now becoming more and more unguardable. In the past, it was just musk, safflower and other things that could be clearly detected, but now if it weren't for the careful Burma, I'm afraid it would be almost the same thing as the princess was killed in the end.

Although he thought so, the imperial doctor still did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately carefully examined the princess's breathing and mouth.

And when Gong Ruhai saw the people in Changle Palace in Qiyuan Palace, he knew that it must be about the princess, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment and brought people to the emperor.

And Shao Ye was originally discussing with the Ministry of Rites Shangshu how to settle the prince of Zhennan, but after listening to the words of the palace, he immediately fell into an inkstone. And the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was even more frightened next to him, secretly sighing that he was unlucky today, and he was involved in this royal secret.

Shao Ye pursed the corners of his mouth, with an expression on his face that was about to come with a storm, and he first said coldly to the Ministry of Rites: "I will leave the affairs of the prince of Zhennan to you with full responsibility." ”

And then he stepped out from behind the bookcase, striding out, Gong Ruhai hurriedly followed him, and glanced at the eunuch waiting next to him.

When Shao Ye arrived at Changle Palace, he didn't let anyone report it, but strode towards the inner room. He had always known that Gu Qingwan would take the child in person during the day, but now that such a thing happened, he didn't know how she was afraid?

As soon as Shao Ye entered the door, he saw the imperial doctor standing aside, while Gu Qingwan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Allure in swaddling clothes on the bed, but there was an expression on his face that he wanted to cry and tried his best to hold back, but Shao Ye didn't feel good in his heart.

And after everyone knelt down to say goodbye, Shao Ye didn't ask the imperial doctor to get up, and asked condescendingly, "How is the eldest princess doing now?" ”

The imperial doctor didn't dare to raise his head, and his eyes could only touch the bright yellow boots, and the dragon pattern embroidered on them snaked from the toe of the shoe, so noble and heavy.

"The previous imperial physician on duty only diagnosed the princess as having an external cold, but today the Burmese Niangniang suddenly discovered the matter of cotton wool, and it was carefully examined by Wei Chen, and found that the swollen tonsils of the princess were indeed caused by this cotton wool." Behind the Imperial Doctor, there was a thunderbolt and a lot of land, and all that came out were medical terms that people couldn't understand.

And Shao Ye became more and more angry the more he listened, he was well-read, and what Gu Qingwan didn't understand didn't mean that he could fool him. If the basic imperial doctor is a doctor, it can be directly summarized in one sentence, the princess was indeed murdered.

I only heard Shao Ye grit his teeth and said: "It's a shame that you still dare to call yourself a famous doctor, and I see that you are just quacks who are not worthy of the name." If it weren't for Myanmar's wake-up call and timely discovery of the problem, I'm afraid,"

Shao Ye said that he paused for a moment, he didn't want to curse his daughter. So he changed his mouth and said: "I didn't cure the sin of waiting for you today, so I let you all make meritorious contributions to heal the eldest princess first." ”

How dare the imperial doctor argue that he didn't see a disease before, but just blindly kowtow and thank the emperor.

And Shao Ye approached the bed, Gu Qingwan hugged his waist, and her cheeks were tightly pressed against his waist. Emperor Du is not worth believing, but when her daughter is murdered by gangsters, she is full of expectations for this man. Only this man can feel the same pain as in her heart.

Gong Ruhai, who was in the back, looked at this scene, how dare he let people stay in this inner room, and even rolled outside with the imperial doctor to wait.

"Allure is still like this, what's wrong with her," Gu Qingwan was about to come down with tears, she was originally thinking about acting, but thinking that such a child would have to cry like this, she became very sad.

When Shao Ye heard Gu Qingwan's question, he was really angry and distressed in his heart, his daughter was also born to him and was so loved by him, but because of these selfishness in the harem, he had to suffer like this. But no father would think of letting go of someone who harmed her.

And the child, who was still asleep, seemed to hear the cry of his mother, opened his eyes in a daze, and then cried again. As soon as Gu Qingwan heard her movements, she didn't care about Shao Ye, she just hugged her in the past.

Probably the child is like this, the more people coax them to cry, the louder they cry, and the Buddha knows that he has been wronged, and his face is red from crying after a while. And Gu Qingwan looked at her pitiful appearance, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged. In the end, he hugged her and cried together.

Shao Ye had never seen such a battle, after all, how could the other concubines dare to cry so loudly in front of the emperor, first, they didn't dare to startle the holy driver, and second, crying like this was unsightly, how could they allow themselves to have an unbeautiful side to be seen by the emperor.

For a while, in the dormitory, there were adults and children crying, and the palace people waiting outside were even more wide-eyed and didn't know what to do, even an old fox like Gong Ruhai was stunned.

After a while, Shao Ye finally didn't stand still, he took two steps forward and wanted to reach out to hold her waist, but Gu Qingwan just didn't look at him, just stared at Allure with teary eyes.

Shao Ye looked at the appearance of the mother and daughter, but somehow wanted to laugh again. He has never comforted the female Rao experience, because all the women are rushing to be his interpretation flower, how can there be a heart for him to explain.

"Your heart is crying," he held for a long time, but he just said that.

And Gu Qingwan, who heard this, picked up the child vertically, Allure's hands were dancing with teeth and claws in the air, and the eyes were red all around, and the toothless mouth was even more open, while Gu Qingwan was whimpering softly, although she didn't cry loudly, she heard Shao Ye's heart even more

Obviously, Shao Ye couldn't find the majesty that he couldn't look at nobly when he sat on the Jinluan Hall on weekdays, and at this moment he was just an ordinary man crying in front of his wife and daughter.

"I promise you, I won't let Allure suffer in vain," Shao Ye finally stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Gu Qingwan, and said softly but firmly.

Gu Qingwan turned her head to look at him at this time, but it was obvious that she was already crying fiercely, and at this time she gasped and said intermittently: "Someone actually wants to kill our Allure with cotton wool, if it wasn't for the concubine to find out in time, I'm afraid that Allure will suffocate to death in the future." ”

Shao Ye immediately put his face on a stern face and said: "Hugh Dehu, how can my eldest princess be so unlucky, I have already passed and I will definitely protect her." ”

"But the concubine is already so hearty, but Allure was still almost poisoned, and I don't know how many people have been harmed by this method." Gu Qingwan was also a little careless at this time, and immediately refuted Shao Ye.

And when Shao Ye heard her words again, he didn't know how many people had been harmed, but his heart moved, and when he looked down at Gu Qingwan, Gu Qingwan had an ignorant expression on his face. Allure seemed to have cried enough, yawned, and then pulled his mouth and smiled.

Gu Qingwan saw her so heartless, and immediately tears fell again, "You can still laugh?" ”

And Shao Ye was even happier when he saw it, and he only felt that this daughter was completely like himself.

After Shao Ye comforted the mother and daughter, he was sure in his heart, and then called someone to come in to serve. And the palace people of Changle Palace surrounded Gu Qingwan to serve Gu Qingwan, and Shao Ye called Gong Ruhai over, and then whispered a few words in his ear. Gong Ruhai quietly retreated.

But Shao Ye thought in his heart that it was time for this harem to be rectified.

In May of the ninth year of Zhaoxuan, the cotton wool case of the palace occurred, the eldest princess and the third prince were murdered at the same time, and the emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the harem.

The emperor was furious and lay in wait for thousands of miles.

Jiang Zhi, the commander of the guards, personally led the team, and for a time it was involved in the internal affairs office in the middle, from the chief eunuch Gao Quan to the palace maids.

May is the season of spring flowers, the flowers in the imperial garden are in full bloom, and the warm spring breeze blows on the body without a trace of warmth.

The queen had canceled the invitation ceremony three days ago, so Gu Qingwan had been living in Changle Palace, and Zheng was found to have almost been framed by this cotton wool one day, and the emperor immediately suspected that he had gone to the third prince's side, and when Gong Ruhai brought the imperial doctor over to check, it was unexpected.

There are people in the harem who murder their children with such sinister means, Shao Ye will not tolerate such a thing even if he is good-tempered, not to mention that he is the emperor.

Because the clothes of the nurse are the standard of the palace, and all the clothes in the palace are made by the Shangyi Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It's just that the master's clothes are made by the upper manufacturing division of the Shangyi Bureau, and the palace rao's clothes are made by the lower manufacturing division. And the nurse's clothes were received by the Xia Zao Division, so this internal affairs office can't escape this time.

At this time, Gu Qingwan was playing with Allure, while the new nurse was standing respectfully aside. Then the sixth son came in, and Gu Qingwan waved her hand and the nurse quietly retreated.

The sixth son whispered to her: "Niangniang, Gao Quan is in prison." I heard that it was because of his greed for ink and silver that the palace people's clothes were shoddy, and this cotton wool case was caused by him. ”

After Gu Qingwan heard this, she didn't say anything, she just blindly looked at Allure in front of her, and only stopped when Allure was about to cry.

Gu Qingwan closed her eyes, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were already clear, and she said softly: "I know, you go down first." ”

Gao Quan is just a pretense, and he is just unlucky, thinking that he will not live tomorrow.

After another two days, this Changle Palace was also taken away a lot, listening to Yurong quietly and her, this time there were more than 30 people involved in this matter in the palace, and more than half of the people in the Shangyi Bureau had already gone.

When everyone went back to Fengyi Palace to ask the queen for peace, all Rao's faces were not good-looking, because the things involved this time were too big, that is, the queen's face was extremely ugly after this change.

Gao Quan is her person, and being in charge of the Internal Affairs Office is equivalent to mastering half of the lifeblood in the palace, but because of this incident, he broke an arm. The queen will not blame Ye Zhaoyi, she will only count this matter on Gu Qingwan's head. So when Gu Qingwan sat in her place, she only felt that the queen was staring at her with burning eyes.

Concubine Jingde's face on the other side looked particularly gray, and not only Gu Qingwan but also Ye Zhaoyi noticed it.

Gu Qingwan had long known that this matter was either the queen or the second concubine Deshu, she originally thought that it would be more queens, but she didn't expect it to be Concubine Jingde. Although the emperor has not moved her at this time, it is obvious that she also knows that this matter is already a big trouble, and the emperor will not give up.

June 6 is the traditional washing and drying festival, and on this day, there is a habit of bathing and drying goods from the palace to the people. And on this day, Hongxi had already asked the palace people to scoop out the clothes and dry them.

Gu Qingwan stood at the gate of the hall with the four-month-old Allure in her arms, looking at the flowers and things in the courtyard, the child thought that she liked this color object very much, and for a while, she stretched out her fat arm and was about to reach forward.

It took Gu Qingwan a long time to appease the restless girl, since the cotton wool incident, the emperor personally ordered all the nurses to be replaced, and all the palace people in the palace who have princes and princesses have to be investigated one by one.

And after a while, the sixth son hurriedly came in from the palace gate, and saw Gu Qingwan standing at the door of the palace, kneeling down at the bottom of the steps to say goodbye.

Because Gu Qingwan is now a second-rank concubine, this Changle Palace also has to have a chief eunuch. The Empress originally wanted to appoint an old and experienced person from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But finally the emperor removed the nails in her palace, how could Gu Qingwan give her the opportunity to insert eyeliner in her palace.

So when Gu Qingwan took Shao Ye to her palace, she specially recommended her sixth son to be the chief eunuch of her Changle Palace. She only fell into the city now, and some strangers came to scare her again.

Shao Ye, who has always loved Allure, heard that it was about his baby daughter, how could he have any objections. So the queen's wishful thinking was in vain, and the queen's eyes looking at Gu Qingwan in the past few days have become more and more wrong.

The queen is in charge of the major affairs in the palace, and the employment of people in the palace has to go through her hands, but now Gu Qingwan is the emperor's hand, but she slapped the queen in the face.

Anyway, Gu Qingwan is now a lot of lice and is not afraid of itching, she has offended the queen so many times, and it is not bad this time.

"Master, the emperor decreed that Concubine De should go to the Taimiao Temple to pray for blessings."

Gu Qingwan frowned at first when she heard this, and then said, "You get up first and come in with me." ”

When Gu Qingwan listened to the sixth son carefully explain this matter, there was only one thought in her heart, Shao Ye did it.

The queen has no children, and if she has no heirs, she should be the first to grow up, but the eldest prince is not liked by the emperor, and it is inevitable that Concubine De is in a hurry. But what Gu Qingwan couldn't figure out was why she didn't do anything to Concubine Shu's second prince.

Gu Qingwan also had some sympathy for the eldest prince, obviously the eldest son of the emperor, but he was dragged into the water by his own mother when he was born. The eldest prince is only four years old this year, but he is not liked by the emperor now, and if he enters the school in the future, the emperor may not like him.

Even if the eldest prince can't compete for the crown prince's position, but as the emperor's eldest son, the prince is still a certainty, and now he is tossed by Concubine De like this, I am afraid that the eldest prince will be folded from now on, even if it is the king of the county.
