An hour passed, and the emperor and the queen finally returned to the banquet hall. It's just that the faces of the emperor and the queen are full of solemnity. And the Prime Minister didn't come back together.

When everyone saw this scene, they had already guessed the outcome of the matter in their hearts. Thinking about Concubine Li and the dragon fetus in the womb, I'm afraid it's not very good.

There was no joy, anger or sadness on the emperor's face, and he still announced as usual, "It's already late at night, let's go back separately!" ”

"Yes." The officials in the room saluted the emperor.

After the emperor finished announcing it, he left.

"Weichen, concubine, send the emperor." Everyone stood up again and saluted to see the emperor off.

After the emperor left, the queen mother announced, "The palace is also tired, so I will leave the table first." Adults, please feel free to do so. ”

"Weichen, concubine, send off the queen."

After the queen left. Immediately afterwards, the officials of the court and their families, as well as the concubines of the harem, also left one after another.

And Jing Guiren left with Concubine Xian. When leaving, Jing Guiren also carefully supported Concubine Xian. I'm afraid that the child in Concubine Xian's womb will have something missing.

Just as she was about to leave the palace gate, Concubine Xian suddenly noticed something and hurriedly looked up. After reading it, he frowned tightly.

After returning to Biluo Palace, Concubine Xian Niangniang assigned all the palace maids out, and then asked Jing Guiren cautiously, "When I came out of the banquet hall today, I noticed that someone was looking at me, but when I looked up, I found that person was looking at you. Do you notice it? The look in that person's eyes, I have seen before, is the love of a man and a woman who cannot ask for it. Chu Yuege asked tentatively.

In fact, she knew in her heart that she could detect it, with Chu Shuyao's alertness, how could she not detect it? She just wanted to ask why.

"I know it all." Chu Shuyao said calmly.

"You know? So what's going on? Didn't the son of Yongchang Houfu just marry the daughter of the Shen family, your nominal sister? ”

"Yes, Gu Beicheng is married to Shen Xian. As for Gu Beicheng's intentions, I only found out on the day he got married. Gu Beicheng drank too much that day, and ran to my side to tell me that what he liked was me. But I have already entered the palace as a concubine, so he married Shen Xian, in order to let Shen Xian replace me. ”

"I think he's crazy, and Shen Xian should know about it. Otherwise, they wouldn't have called me out in the middle of the banquet and told me those warning words. ”

"Oh my God? How so? ”

"What can I do? If the news gets out, your life will also be implicated? Chu Yuege was worried.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. This matter will not be leaked so easily. The Gu family has a full family, and the Shen family also has a full family. And I'm just alone. They don't dare risk the lives of their families. ”

"That's good." Concubine Xian Niangniang habitually touched her belly.

Suddenly thinking of something, he asked, "The child in Concubine Li's womb, I'm afraid it's not good, right?" ”

Jing Guiren nodded, "I'm afraid the child can't be saved." ”

"Oh my God! It's really terrible, Concubine Li's child, suddenly gone. Did you say it was an accident, or did someone deliberately harm her? "Concubine Xian was very scared.

"Whether it was an accident or someone did it on purpose, it's really hard to say. But it's good that this matter has nothing to do with us. Don't worry too much, I've already told Nighthawk that I'll send two Secret Guards to protect you tomorrow. ”

"Sister, if it weren't for you, I don't know if I would be able to survive in this Tanglin Palace." Concubine Xian's face was full of emotion and gratitude.

"Alright, you can rest well! Don't overthink it. Chu Shuyao appeased Chu Yuege and went back to her palace.

As soon as she closed the door to the inner sanctum, Nighthawk appeared, "Princess." ”

"I just have something to look for you, Concubine Xian, you send two people over to protect her, you have to rely on it."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

"My subordinates still have something to get back."

"But there's a change on the queen mother's side?" Chu Shuyao asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, princess, the Queen Mother is fine. The subordinates have placed eyeliner in various places in the Tanglin Palace, and a secret guard has come to report that tonight, a concubine in the harem of the Tanglin Kingdom rolled down the steps, and this incident is not an accident. ”

"Not an accident?"

"I've also guessed that maybe it's not an accident. But who is so bold and dares to act so blatantly? ”

"It's the harem of the Tanglin Kingdom, the queen's mother's family."

"The Queen's maiden family?"

"Yes, tonight, among the maids brought by the ladies of the Guogong Mansion, there is a practitioner with strong martial arts. Concubine Li suddenly fell down the steps because the maid hit the numb tendon on Concubine Li's leg with a small clod of earth. ”

"The maid is obviously skillful. When the clod of soil is pressed, it crumbles into a small handful of loess, and no one can find out. Nighthawk pointed out the point.

"Is that so? Does the queen feel that her position has been threatened? ”

"The subordinates think that the queen of the Tanglin Kingdom doesn't know about this matter, everything is the queen's mother's family, and she makes her own decisions."

"The queen's maiden family made their own decisions?"

"Yes, because some of the guards have seen the queen and her sister-in-law quarrel. Just yesterday, the queen's maiden sister-in-law came to the palace to greet the queen. It was a good conversation, but suddenly a dispute broke out. ”

The queen's sister-in-law said that her brother did it entirely for her good. But the queen said, are my brother and sister-in-law trying to kill her? This palace is not the backyard of my brother and sister-in-law. ”

The queen's sister-in-law finally got angry and left only one sentence for the queen. said that the queen didn't have to worry about anything, and everything was arranged by the queen's brother. If the matter is revealed, it will not even affect the queen. ”

In the end, the queen also got angry, and said to her sister-in-law that they were a family, and no matter who did it, no one could escape suspicion. My brother and sister-in-law dare to take such a risk, but they just want to keep the status of the national government, right? When the nephew inherits the title in the future, he will not be demoted. ”

"The conversation between the queen and her sister-in-law ended unhappily."

Chu Shuyao listened to Nighthawk say this, and she understood everything.

couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity for this concubine, she was plotted, and she doesn't know what's going on?" ”

Nighthawk snorted coldly, "My subordinates think that this Concubine Li deserves it." Concubine Li saw the princess talking to the lady of the prince of Yongchang Houfu, who claimed to be the princess's sister. ”

After Concubine Li heard the conversation between the princess and the lady of the prince, she sent the hidden palace maid by her side to investigate. If the palace maid with strong martial arts is by Concubine Li's side. Concubine Li will not be plotted against by others, and she will fall so badly. ”

"Concubine Li is going to investigate me?"

"Huh! She still hasn't given up? It seems that the lesson for her is not enough! ”

"Do you need your subordinates to take action and teach Concubine Li a lesson?"

"No, she's already suffering now."

"Tell me to go down, before the matter of the Western Chu Kingdom is decided, there must not be the slightest difference."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

"You can go down first, if there is anything, come and go at any time."

"Yes." Nighthawk turned around and vanished.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to the practice of the palace, the harem concubines were going to the Queen Mother to ask the Queen Mother for peace.

But the queen mother was sick and physically exhausted, so she was exempted from the harem concubines.

Therefore, the concubines in the harem went to the queen to ask for peace instead.

Jing Guiren sensed that something was wrong, this queen mother has always been in good health, why did she suddenly get sick? It's just sick if you're sick, it's just a cold, and you can't afford to be sick. And they've been sick for so long.

On the way to the queen's palace by the harem concubines, they met the seven princes who were in a hurry. The Seventh Prince's face was pale and worried.

After the two parties greeted each other, the Seventh Prince went to the Queen Mother's palace in a hurry.

Concubine Xian whispered to Jing Guiren, "What's wrong with these seven princes?" When I see him on weekdays, he mostly looks like a hippie smile. What's going on today? ”

"Maybe I'm worried about the Queen Mother's body!" Jing Guiren revealed it in one sentence and no longer discussed this matter.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the harem concubines greeted the queen's mother. Concubine Li had a sudden miscarriage, so the queen mother specially exempted Concubine Li's invitation.

The queen mother said some polite words, and everyone else echoed them, but the pregnant concubine retched a little.

The concubine was pregnant before the queen's mother, and at this time, her belly was already very pregnant.

At this time, he pleaded guilty to the queen mother with a big belly, "The concubine is out of order, please forgive the queen." ”

Whether the concubine is really uncomfortable or deliberately pretentious, it is unknown.

But the queen mother looked at the concubine's bulging belly, and the expression of indifference that she was not afraid that she would blame, and felt a little dazzling.

The queen mother still smiled gently and kindly, "You are pregnant, and it is inevitable that you will be tired." Go back and rest first! I don't need to talk to you here. ”

"Concubine, thank you for the queen's understanding."

After the concubine finished speaking to the queen, she stood up and wanted to go out, when at this time, a sudden message was passed outside, "The emperor has arrived." ”

The concubine immediately stopped, and when the emperor came in, all the concubines got up and saluted the emperor.

It's just that the concubine is hypocritical, but it's just to ask for peace, and she almost fainted.

The emperor was close to the concubine, and he quickly supported the concubine.

Who knew that the concubine really fainted, and she couldn't wake up, so the emperor hurriedly asked people to go to the imperial doctor.

The concubine rested in the side hall of the queen's palace.

After the imperial doctor came to check the pulse, he actually shook his head.

The emperor was shocked, "Imperial Doctor, what is going on?" ”

"Back to the emperor, this concubine was in contact with unclean things, which caused the fetal breath to be unstable, so she fainted."

"Unclean things? Anything unclean, make it clear. In this palace, where did the unclean things come from? The emperor was furious.

The imperial doctor was so frightened that he trembled, "Back to the emperor, this concubine Niangniang accidentally ate some safflower, safflower is a good medicine for blood circulation and blood stasis, but it is also a sharp weapon for hurting the fetus." For pregnant women, this is a big taboo! ”
