"I will not tolerate it." Listening to Lan Xin's words, Hongli expressed his heart without hesitation. Since he recovered from a serious illness, the harem has been peaceful for a long time. The only thing that made him annoyed was that Concubine Su Wanrong was pregnant again, and this matter was successfully resolved by the queen.

Hongli thought that the years would continue like this. At least it will allow him to feel comfortable for a while longer. But I don't want reality to always catch people off guard. I have just spent a few quiet months, and in the blink of an eye, the ground is full of red. "How?"

The imperial doctor took out the silver skewer used for drug testing from the pear juice, turned back and presented it to the emperor with a solemn expression, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, please see, the part of the silver skewer that enters the pear juice has completely turned black, which shows that the pear juice is indeed poisonous." Judging from the fact that Mama only took more than half a bowl, it caused seven holes to bleed and die in a short period of time, which shows that the amount of poison is not light, or this is highly poisonous. ”

"Fortunately, it wasn't Wei Chang who drank Sydney juice." Lan Xin deliberately said this, in a vain attempt to arouse the emperor's anger even more intensely. No matter who poisoned him, no matter what the purpose was, Lan Xin did not intend to calm the turmoil with leniency and connivance. In fact, calm down and think about it, appeasement and adultery are definitely not a good way to calm things down. It may be possible to calm the storm for the time being, but only temporarily.

I don't know when she finally understood a truth, being kind to a ruthless person is equivalent to hanging a sharp blade over her head. You never know when that knife will fall. "Otherwise, the harem is really unimaginable. The concubine kept Wei Changzai by her side to serve, but she harmed her. ”

A cold light flashed in Wei Yating's red and swollen eyes crying, although her expression was slightly confused, but she knew it very well in her heart. "It was the concubine who caused the grandmother, and it was the concubine who killed the grandmother in vain. If it weren't for the fact that the concubine was tired of these days, didn't drink Sydney juice, and returned it to Mama, there would be no such thing. ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Hongli Wu stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Wei Changzai, who was still kneeling on the ground.

It's just that Wei Yating doesn't seem to have any intention of getting up at all, she just wants to be with Mama for a while. The person who was still alive died in front of him in the blink of an eye, and it was difficult for anyone to accept such pain.

"Li Yu, whose hand did the pear juice go through? I'm here, looking it up layer by layer. But whoever touches the juice of Sydney, whether suspicious or not, will bring it to the temple. Don't let any of them go. "Hongli didn't blame Wei Changzai, seeing that she was crying uncomfortably, he could somewhat understand her coldness." The queen should be relieved. ”

Hongli Wu led the people to the front hall, leaving Lan Xin to comfort Wei Chang. Presumably at this time, only Wei Changzai's words could be listened to.

Lan Xin sighed in a low voice, and finally made up her mind: "You just said that if you hadn't given Huai'an pear juice to drink, she would have been fine." Bengong was thinking, if it weren't for Bengong asking her to come to the Old Summer Palace to accompany you, there would be no such thing. Speaking of which, the decision of the original palace was the root cause of today's events. Instead of hating yourself and blaming yourself, it is better to resent this palace, maybe in this way, you can feel better in your heart. ”

"Queen Mother, did Mama die in vain like this?" Wei Yating finally couldn't help but be sad, and couldn't stop crying: "Only Mama treats her concubines well, and over the years, Mama has regarded her concubines as her own daughter." Mama said that she would definitely protect her concubines. But I don't want her to protect her concubine with her life......"

"Whether it is in vain or not, what the palace says doesn't count, you say it doesn't count." Lan Xin's iron-blue face did not have a trace of temperature. "If you live a worthwhile life, then Huai'an can be at ease even if you go. But if you are...... That's it. As if she was relieved from the bottom of her heart, Lan Xin didn't want to force her anymore: "Actually, you don't want to be favored again at all, and you don't want to stay with the emperor to take care of it." This palace can control you for a while, but it can't control you for a lifetime, and your heart is your own.

After this incident, this palace finally saw the sinister intentions of those people clearly. They don't allow the palace to support newcomers to seize the holy favor, and they don't allow you to appear by the emperor's side to replace the former Luo Ying. And these days, although the emperor did not summon you to bed, he was very kind to you, so they panicked. ”

Lan Xin stepped forward and helped Wei Yating up with her own hands. He also motioned to Suo Lan and Jin Lan to cover Huai'an's body with a very wide burlap white cloth. "It's too late to get out now, just because of Huai'an, you can get seriously ill. This palace will not save you from working hard in your illness, and you can also be sent back to Zhulin Garden. It's just that maybe it won't be easy for you to get out of that lonely and lonely place. Would you like to? ”

Wei Yating doesn't have the emperor in her heart, which can deceive others, but she can't deceive Lan Xin. From her demeanor and thoughts, Lan Xin knew that she would not fall in love with the emperor. I thought maybe she would change this time, but after all, she was still the same.

"Mother." Wei Yating called in a trembling voice, holding the queen's hand with a slight force: "Without Mama Huai'an, what are the concubines doing when they go back to Zhulinyuan?" There is no longer a pure land, there is only the hatred and cowardice of the concubines. Wiping a handful of tears, Wei Yating smiled coldly: "Fourteen-year-old Wei Yating has already planted all her fears and fears under the bamboo forest. Now I am no longer the timid woman who can only retreat and only avoid. Mama can't die in vain. ”

"It's good that you want to understand, don't make a wrong decision in a moment of righteous indignation." Although Lan Xin spent a lot of effort on Wei Yating, she didn't want to force her to do anything after all. And Wei Yating doesn't owe herself anything, she doesn't have to live to repay herself.

Biting her lip, Wei Yating only nodded vigorously: "The concubine has already thought clearly." Raising her eyes full of remorse and hatred, Wei Yating met the queen's hesitant gaze and said unceremoniously: "Doesn't Niangniang hope that the concubine can win the emperor's favor in one fell swoop?" After so long of careful arrangement, why do you have to retreat again? ”

These words were very impulsive, and even Suo Lan was a little harsh when he heard it. Ke Lanxin was very calm in the end, and there was no displeasure. "Hongu just hopes that when you can still choose, you can choose for yourself. Whether you advance or retreat, you have to make your own decisions. Then if something so unsatisfactory happens in the future, you won't feel so remorseful. The decisions you make are worth your life. ”

After sighing, Lan Xin finally couldn't hide his sadness: "Don't choose when you can't choose, you will regret it." It's too late. ”

"The concubine lost her words." Wei Yating was so confused that at first she thought that the queen was deliberately retreating. But at this time, she saw that in the queen's eyes, there was exactly the same remorse as her, and she could even see her hesitation and unbearability behind the pain. finally understood her sincerity. The queen is not a person who can only control and clamp to balance the harem, she is managing the harem with her heart and taking care of a home with her heart. ”

Xue Guining hurriedly came in, and said in a bad voice: "Niangniang, it's not good, the emperor suspects that Concubine Jia and Concubine Yu used the fifth elder brother to drug Wei Changzai's pear juice." ”

"What did you say?" Lan Xin couldn't help but be shocked: "How is this possible, Concubine Jia's temperament is the most indifferent, how could she do such a thing." Even if Concubine Yu is impulsive and domineering, she will never use her own flesh and blood to do such a harmful thing. How could you suspect these two? ”

At first, Wei Yating was a little secret, and it was a good thing that she found the person who poisoned her so quickly. But after listening to the queen's words and seeing the determination in the corners of the queen's eyes and eyebrows, she couldn't help but feel lost. If things were so simple, I'm afraid it's a strategy to kill two birds with one stone, if she turns her face with Concubine Jia and Concubine Yu at this time, but whether the poisoning thing goes as she wishes, she will fall into the trap arranged by others again.

Be calm, Wei Yating, you must not be deceived by appearances. She couldn't help admonishing herself like this in her heart, and a strong cold light popped up in her eyes: "Niangniang, the concubine wants to take a look." ”

Lan Xin nodded, motioning for Xue Guining to lead the way, and couldn't help but wonder who was so eager to make a move. Of course, the past events have left many doubts in her heart, and she can't help but think of some evil people. For example, the queen mother, such as the pure concubine, they are the most unpleasant characters in the harem.

But Concubine Chun is now pregnant and unable to protect herself, and the Queen Mother is being closely monitored in Cining Palace, how can she accomplish these things? Lan Xin really couldn't figure it out: "The emperor is aware of everything, and he will definitely not wronged anyone, nor will he indulge anyone." This palace only hopes that Wei Changzai can calm down and not believe what you see.

Sometimes, the tighter everything fits, the more suspicious it becomes. The evidence in the hand may not be true. It's not that this palace wants to protect no one and has no intention of calming people, but it just doesn't want to indulge the real executioner, do you understand? ”

"Don't worry, the queen mother, the concubine understands." Wei Yating said sonorously: "The concubine doesn't want to let go of the real murderer. ”

"I want to hear your explanations. Concubine Jia, you speak first. "Hongli is not angry, but he is not angry,

Jin Peizi made up her mind, and then said slowly: "The concubine doesn't know what Sydney juice is, and she doesn't know why it is poisonous. When the concubines and concubines rushed over, the minions had already gathered into a group. Whether anyone has done anything or not, the concubines don't know. ”

The concubine and Concubine Jia went together, only caring about how Yongqi was doing, and didn't care about anyone around and what she knocked over. As for how the pear juice was poisoned, the concubine really didn't know, so please ask the emperor to know it. His character is also calm and calm, without any panic.

Li Yu was busy with the emperor's suspicion of himself, and hurriedly explained: "Back to the emperor, the minions present at that time have already been brought down for interrogation. It is said that when the little eunuch was sending pear juice to Wei Changzai, he met the fifth elder brother under the corridor. When I met the fifth elder brother, I really didn't see the two mothers of Concubine Jia and Concubine Yu present. There were only the nurses and minions who were waiting for the fifth elder brother. ”
