"Queen Mother, Sister Guifei, this matter has nothing to do with the King of Chu, but it was the evil obstacle of the criminal concubine that provoked the King of Chu to release the ink night, which caused the prince to be injured!" Concubine Shen Shu also grabbed Huo Guifei and cried silently, "It's all useless concubines, and they can't control the three princes, and they have the hopes of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother!" ”

Saying that, he kowtowed to Queen Zhou, and said sadly: "The queen just asked the Zongzheng Order to deal with it, no matter how she is punished, the concubine has no complaints!" When Shen looked up, he could see a large area of black blue on his forehead.

Gan Tang shouted: "Mother, the son is guilty, it is the son who is reckless, it is not about the mother and the concubine, I beg the mother to spare the mother concubine!" ”

But I heard Gan Ran exclaim: "Mother! Mother! But it was Huo Guifei who pinched the handkerchief, but she was so angry that she didn't come up in one breath, she fainted directly, and was held by Gan Ran.

The East Palace was in a mess for a while, and Queen Zhou laughed angrily: "Just for such an idea, the two concubines in the hall are going to come to take off the hairpin, and even take the King of Chu and the Third Highness to be slapped in front of the palace people, why do you think that the queen of the palace is so tyrannical and unreasonable?" ”

Concubine Shen Shufei didn't argue when she heard this, but just kowtowed her head again and again, Gan Tang was shocked and anxious, and hurriedly rushed up to hug her, but was pressed by Concubine Shu to ask the queen for guilt.

Empress Zhou also ignored the two pairs of mother and son, pointed at her armored hand, and said coldly: "Su Ruhui, you come to talk to the palace, what is going on?" Why are you in the East Palace? ”

Su Ruhui fell into tears before speaking, choked and went to the upper forest garden to enjoy the scenery, walked into the apricot forest, was teased by the ink night, and threw stones to provoke without anger, as a result, the ink night had a ferocious attack, and the story of being saved by the prince on the occasion of a thousand times was said again, and cried: "It's all the fault of the courtiers, it has nothing to do with the two highnesses, the queen mother, please only punish the courtiers, if it weren't for the courtiers and the ink night, it would definitely not take the initiative to hurt people!" ”

Another one to plead!

Queen Zhou was angry and hateful, and suddenly said: "Didn't the Queen Mother match you with four palace maids, why didn't you bring any of them to Shanglin Yuan?" ”

"The courtiers originally brought Xiuwan and Fushui, but when they first arrived near the apricot forest, they found that the ruyi hairpin that the queen mother had given them a few years ago was missing, and they were afraid that they would fall on the road, so they sent the two of them back to find it." Su Ruhua said.

Queen Zhou's eyes flashed: "You were still plugged in when you went out, but you disappeared when you went to Shanglin Yuan?" It's just that if you walk on the road, the two palace maids must be behind and follow, if something falls, will they not be able to see it? ”

Without waiting for Su Ruhui to answer, Queen Zhou waved her hand and said, "Okay, what's the matter here when you're crying?" Huo Guifei has fainted, does the King of Chu still want your mother to be laughed at by the palace people here? Let's go to the side hall first! This is the residence of the prince, although you are concubines, you can't come in casually, and you Su family! ”

The queen spoke in person, and a group of palace people came to help Huo Guifei and Shen Shufei to the side hall to rest for a while, and Gan Ran personally hugged the concubine and lay down on a soft couch. ”

Yu Taiqi quietly glanced at the queen and said vaguely: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu can rest assured, the concubine is fine!" ”

Empress Zhou's face was very ugly, and she said, "Since this is the case, then the king of Chu and the third prince should send your mother concubine back first." ”

"How can I leave just because I am reckless and cause my brother to be injured? When the mother concubine came, there were palace people, and let the palace people send the mother concubine back, and I waited to stay but let the queen mother fall! Gan Ran and Gan Tang said in unison.

"Whatever you want." Queen Zhou said coldly, but beckoned to An Xia, "The Su family is also a young lady of everyone, it is undignified to cry like this, you go and take her to freshen up first and then come over, the palace still has something to ask." ”

An Xia understood, pulled Su Ruhui out of the side hall, went to the warm pavilion next to her, and asked the little palace maid of the East Palace to fetch water, An Xia waited for Su Ruhui to re-clean her face, and pulled a new half-loose cloud sideburns for her, the door of the warm pavilion suddenly opened, but it was the girl in scarlet clothes just now, holding a new set of palace clothes in her hand and said: "The slave maid saw that Miss Su's clothes were messy, this skirt was given by the queen's mother, and the slave maid had not yet put on her body, so she asked Miss Su not to dislike it, and she changed it first." ”

"Since it is given by the queen, how dare I use it without permission?" Su Ruhui hurriedly excused herself.

An Xia said: "Miss should change her clothes, Niangniang is in a bad mood this time, I just asked you to come out to freshen up, if you go back and see that your clothes are still wrinkled, I am afraid that Niangniang will think that the slave maid did not listen to the instructions and neglected Miss." ”

An Xia persuaded left and right, plus the woman in scarlet clothes, insisted on forcing Su Ruhui to take off her coat and middle coat, and put on the new clothes.

Su Ruhui was only wearing obscene clothes and new clothes, and it was clear at a glance that there was no place to hide on her body, and An Xia quickly glanced at the things on the table, and suddenly showed disappointment.

When Su Ruhui returned to the side hall, he saw that the atmosphere in the hall was strange, Huo Guifei and Shen Shufei were no longer there, and they were probably sent back to their respective palaces by the palace people, Gan Ran and Gan Tang both knelt in their palaces, but Queen Zhou came down from the upper seat, where the queen was originally sitting, there was a man wearing a bright yellow imperial robe, Zhang An stood behind him with a whisk in his hand, and it was Changtai who arrived.

"Courtier......" Su Ruhui was about to salute, but was impatiently waved aside by Changtai to serve.

But I heard Queen Zhou Zhengse say: "The concubine only knows that Mo Ye accidentally injured Lin'er for some reason, but I don't know what happened, who knows that the two sisters have come to take off the hairpin, and the concubine is also panicking, thinking that the two sisters have misunderstood!" ”

"How is the Prince's injuries?" Changtai didn't answer the queen's words, but just glanced at Yu Taiqi coldly, Yu Taiqi shook his white eyebrows, and bowed and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the prince was grabbed by Mo Ye in the right arm, Mo Ye had no intention of killing at that time, just a warning, so the prince's wounds seemed to be blurred with flesh and blood, but in fact, they were all flesh and skin injuries, and the muscles and bones were intact, and there was no major problem." ”

As soon as Yu Taiqi said this, Su Ruhua couldn't help but look up in surprise, and saw that a clear look of surprise also flashed on Queen Zhou's face, and then suppressed it with anger!

"Since the crown prince is not seriously injured, why are my two concubines so frightened, and even take off their hairpins in front of the palace people in the East Palace...... Shine...... How's Huo's? Changtai asked impatiently.

This time, Yu Taiqi was not embarrassed, but said with a decent smile: "Speaking of the concubine, the minister has to congratulate Your Majesty!" ”

"Huh?" Changtai was stunned, but Queen Zhou seemed to suddenly think of something, and her face turned pale!

Sure enough, Yu Taiqi said with a smile: "The concubine Niangniang has a dragon vein, and it has been more than a month!" ”

As soon as Yu Taiqi's words fell, Queen Zhou accidentally brushed off a white-background painted magpie and a beautiful woman on the branch, with a crisp "bang"! The palace, which was originally pleasantly surprised by Yu Taiqi's words, suddenly cast his eyes over! Changtai's eyebrows furrowed, Queen Zhou opened her mouth, she wanted to say something but couldn't say it, but fortunately, Gan Pei hurriedly knelt down and said, "The son has lost his honor!" When the son heard that there would be a new brother or sister playing with, he was too surprised, so he missed, and asked his father to punish him! ”

Changtai's face was uncertain, and Zhang An on the side said with a smile on his face: "Broken peace!" With such a fall, the imperial heir in the belly of the concubine will definitely be safe and healthy! ”

As soon as Zhang An said this, the people of the palace wanted to be the queen and Gan Peiyuan, and the concubine would definitely be able to give birth to the heir safely and smoothly, Changtai's face was a little pale, but he said coldly: "Why did the concubine faint?" ”

"Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister's bluntness, when the concubine was pregnant with the princess, she injured the fetus because of the matter of Mrs. Le'an County, and she has been pampered and infertile for many years. At first glance, when I heard that the eagle falcon raised by the king of Chu had injured the prince by mistake, the concubine Niangniang was full of grief and anger, and rushed all the way from the Xifu Palace to the East Palace. ”

Changtai suddenly leaned forward slightly, and his concern was overflowing: "Is there something wrong with the concubine?" ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the concubine is okay for the time being, and the minister has just asked the imperial doctor who is good at women and babies in the Tai Hospital to go to Xifu Palace to take care of it. It's just ......," Yu Taiqi groaned, "However, Niangniang was injured in her early years after all, and this time she was really angry, and the fetal image is inevitably a little unstable, and it must not be stimulated in the future!" ”

"Father, all sons are unfilial! not only hurt the royal brother, but also affected the mother concubine! Please ask your father to reprimand your sons, thinking that the royal brother and mother are angry! Gan Ran suddenly walked a few steps on his knees and cried.

"Father, this matter is not about the second brother, it was the son who came up with the idea to take Mo Ye to Shanglin Yuan, everything is the son of the son, please punish the son if you want to punish the father!" Gan Tang hurriedly stepped forward on his knees, grabbed the corner of Changtai's robe and cried.

Changtai looked at these two sons, he has a total of six princes under his knees, the youngest manna has been raised outside the palace is rare, the prince is precocious, and the prince cannot be connived at, the fifth son Gan Pei is still young, and he has been raised in Weiyang Palace, which he has rarely been to in recent years, which is rare. And Gan Ran has been raised under the name of Huo Guifei since he was a child, and has a lot of contact with Changtai, Changtai is very doted on this second son, Gan Tang's biological mother Shen Shufei, although she was not favored in her early years, but Gan Tang has always been the most favored by the Queen Mother, and she is well-behaved, plus Shen Shufei has been assisting in palace affairs in the past two years, and her favor has gradually increased a lot more than before.

What's more, these two sons will be raised under their knees for another year or two, and they will be vassal if they can't say it, and even if they are summoned to the imperial capital every year to meet each other, they are only in a hurry, and it is impossible to see them under their knees.

Changtai's face changed several times, but he didn't say how to punish him. The hand under Queen Zhou's sleeve was already trembling slightly, and she quietly glanced at Gan Pei, who had to kneel in front of Changtai and said crisply: "Father, now that Concubine Huo is pregnant, the prince's brother is fine, and I also ask my father to read that the two imperial brothers are unintentional, and everything is caused by Mo Ye, so I will exempt the two imperial brothers from punishment!" ”

Seeing that Changtai still didn't speak, Gan Pei shook the corners of his robe and replied: "Mother Huo has always loved the second imperial brother, and the anger just now was also for the second imperial brother, if the maternal concubine knew that the father and the emperor punished the second imperial brother, I don't know how sad it is, and if it affects the imperial brother or sister who has not yet been born, wouldn't it be beautiful?" If the father must be angry with the prince's brother, but please beat Mo Ye to death! Don't hurt the two royal brothers! ”

Su Ruhui heard Gan Pei say that Huo Guifei had always loved Gan Ran, and the corners of her mouth twitched, His Royal Highness Fifth should indeed know how to take eye medicine at this age, but it was too obvious...... Her eyes flickered, but she saw that Gan Ran heard the word "ink night", her kneeling body shook, and a sense of guilt surged inexplicably in her heart!
