In fact, Xu Xiangjin felt that she was quite sorry for the Thirteenth Prince, who had a good and happy birthday banquet, but because she was used by others, she was lying in bed on this happy day, but fortunately, her life was not in danger, otherwise she would have died of guilt.

"Zhan Qing, do you really believe me, no one believes me here, I just want to give a good gift, why is it so troublesome, it's not that I find out who wants to harm me, I will definitely not let her go!"

Xu Xiangjin's eyes began to wander, as if she really saw the person who killed her, and gritted her teeth.

"That's it!" Zhan Qing glanced at the guards guarding the gate who were left at the door by the Queen Mother, turned Xu Xiangjin around, pushed Yonghe Palace, and hugged her a little distressedly, "I'm sorry, I couldn't be by your side in time, and I made you feel wronged a little bit, you stay here honestly first, I will send some more guards over, no one dares to touch you." ”

As long as she could be held in Zhanqing's arms, Xu Xiangjin felt extremely relieved, she knew that she couldn't do anything now, so she could only nod and obey his arrangement.

………

Because Xu Xiangjin had to say that she was going to retreat for the past two days, Zhan Qing didn't stay by her side all day, so she didn't know why the poison was contaminated with the poetry book at all, so she could only spend a lot of time checking it little by little.

But this time the other party was obviously prepared, he used all kinds of manpower and material resources, but he still couldn't find any clues, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and he could only consider continuing to investigate from a different angle.

Concubine Ling always paid attention to Xu Xiangjin's movements, and naturally knew what Zhan Qing was investigating now, so she hurriedly cheered up her spirit. And asked Luyi to deliberately bring a message to Concubine Xian, asking her not to have any dealings with the flower screen of Yonghe Palace, so as to prevent being suspected by the emperor.

Because of the investigation of poison, Zhan Qing couldn't eat, and he couldn't sleep well, let alone the criticism, Yan Kang was really a little anxious when he looked at it, so he could only take the risk of speaking.

"Your Majesty, otherwise, think about it, for the time being, abolish the position of the concubine of the concubine, in this case, it can be regarded as an explanation, you can keep the concubine Niangniang first, and when this matter passes in the future, it is not too late to re-seal the concubine!"

If you look at it rationally, Yan Kang's idea is indeed good, but it is only because he regards himself as a bystander that he can say these words so rationally.

And what Zhan Qing has to think about is not just to solve this matter, but Xu Xiangjin, if she really abolishes her concubine position, wouldn't this be a tacit acquiescence, the poison is her, she has always disliked being wronged, and he always feels that if her concubine is abolished, the two of them will be like they will never be in touch again.

This time he didn't protect her well, and I don't know if he was cold, if he didn't have this position imprisoned, would he leave him again.

"No, the concubine position must not be abolished, wouldn't this be as the poisoner wanted, I will definitely catch the real murderer, it's just a matter of time now."

Yan Kang has no choice, after all, the matter is not on him, he can only give some advice, as for whether to do it or not, it can only depend on what the emperor thinks.

Xu Xiangjin had nothing to do in the Yong'an Palace on Sunday, she could only dangle to pass the time, she was really anxious, she wanted to find out the truth for herself, but she could only be helplessly locked here, and she didn't know how Zhan Qing's investigation went.

Maybe everyone in the harem is paying attention to the progress of this matter now, so Xu Xiangjin always feels that there are countless pairs of eyes staring around, which makes her uncomfortable.

When she was in a daze, the door of Yong'an Palace was suddenly pushed open, and a palace maid walked in, followed by two guards, Xu Xiangjin recognized her, when she went to congratulate the thirteen princes on her birthday that day, she followed the queen mother's side, listening to the queen mother's call, it seemed to be called Bishui, and it seemed to be one of the few young palace maids around the queen mother.

"Poor concubine, the Queen Mother is invited, please come with us."

No wonder she had to bring two guards, she was afraid that she would not go, so she deliberately found two people to coerce her, the Queen Mother was really ruthless enough.

"Wait a minute, I'll pack up and go."

Xu Xiangjin hurriedly went into the house and wrote a note, and when he came out to follow the palace maid, he deliberately threw it to the ground, and now he can only hope that the guards sent by Zhan Qing will be smarter.

As soon as she entered the lobby of Cining Palace, she saw the Queen Mother sitting in the center with an interrogative posture, and she walked over and gave a light salute.

"I don't know what the Queen Mother is looking for me?"

"Humph!" The Queen Mother put the teacup on the table violently, made a loud noise, and ordered Xu Xiangjin to kneel down, "You poisoned people and are still so arrogant, I have never seen you so brazen, I advise you to be honest, otherwise, even if you are protected by the emperor, don't blame me for being unkind!" ”

Obviously, he said before that he would give time to investigate, but now he has summoned himself alone and interrogated what it means, is it possible that the Queen Mother still wants to be beaten into a trick!

Xu Xiangjin suddenly felt a special grievance in her heart, obviously this matter seems to be framed so obviously, but this queen mother has to distinguish between right and wrong, just because she hates herself, but she obviously hasn't done anything yet.

"Queen Mother, I've always been a person who does things by himself, but what I haven't done, I will never admit it, no matter what method you use, what I haven't done is what I haven't done, instead of interrogating me here, you might as well go find the real murderer, or do you just want to put the crime on my head at all."

really felt too aggrieved, Xu Xiangjin simply couldn't bear it, and directly said what was in his heart.

"What a sharp-toothed one, are you so confused by the emperor, since you came to the palace, some bad things have happened in this palace one after another, in my opinion, you are a disaster star, it will only bring disaster to the emperor, I advise you to be interesting, leave as soon as possible, this is good for all of us!"

Sure enough, I want her to leave again, and the purpose of these harem women is really obvious enough.

When Xu Xiangjin was thinking about how to answer, Zhan Qing rushed over at this juncture, and happened to hear what the Queen Mother had just said.

"Who does the Queen Mother want to let go, no one can leave without my order!"

He walked over and pulled Xu Xiangjin up from the ground, held her hand, and looked at the Queen Mother with some anger.

"Queen Mother, did I say that this matter will be handled by me, please don't interfere again, but what do you mean by bringing the poor concubine here while I am away, is it possible that what I am saying now will not work?"

Zhan Qing threatens the Queen Mother with the matter of the throne every time, and it is really the second time.

"Emperor, you..."The Queen Mother really couldn't say anything about Zhanqing, and turned the spearhead directly to Xu Xiangjin again, "Look at it, it's all because of you, a disaster star, how filial the emperor used to be, but now because of you many times against me, do you think you are a performance of being a daughter-in-law?" ”

Xu Xiangjin silently said in her heart, if she could, she would not be happy to have such a mother-in-law, sure enough, the problem of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in China has been there since ancient times, and it can be regarded as an enduring cultural inheritance.

has been scolded so ugly, Xu Xiangjin really wants to go back, but looking at the Zhan Qing next to him, he was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he endured it and didn't speak.

On the way back, neither of them paid attention to anyone, the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing, and after returning to Yong'an Palace, Zhan Qing wanted to comfort Xu Xiangjin, but he didn't know where to start.

"Do you know it's dangerous, can't you just wait? I'm not far from you, and my people who stay with you will send me a message when they see something wrong, and with your ability, it will definitely not be a problem to delay for a while. ”

obviously wanted to care about people, but because of the tone problem, it turned into a hurtful knife, Xu Xiangjin had been holding back aggrievedly, and he was completely outburst by what he said.

"What can I do, that person is the queen mother, I'm just a little concubine, isn't it as simple as crushing an ant to death if she crushes me to death, how do I know when you will come to save me, this palace is full of dangers, everyone wants to stick a knife in me, I recruit whoever provokes whom, I can't figure it out, why should I be your so-called poor concubine, otherwise it wouldn't be to this point."

Zhan Qing knew that his tone was not quite right just now, which is why Xu Xiangjin was suddenly so sad, so he let her talk nonsense, and helped her wipe away her tears with some distress.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have said yours, it should be that I came too slowly, that's why you were wronged, don't take what the Queen Mother said, don't take it to heart, she is just used to being autocratic in the palace, and she is so uncontrollable when she encounters you, so she reacts so much, and it should be fine after a long time."

It should be, even he is not sure, and it will be a long time, she is not even sure if she can survive this hurdle now, even if Zhan Qing wants to protect her, but there are too many dangers in all directions, and he does not have three heads and six arms, so he can't protect it after all.

"Zhan Qing, we must solve this matter in front of us, and the best way now is for you to abolish my concubine first, so that the person who poisoned him has achieved his goal, and he will definitely relax his vigilance while being happy, and you will be able to ...... when the time comes."

"No way!"

Zhan Qing rejected her directly without thinking about it, Xu Xiangjin raised this matter differently from Yan Kang's suggestion, Yan Kang was giving advice, but giving Xu Xiangjin made him feel that she was trying to leave him.
