Chapter 237: A Great Disaster Strikes

Concubine Zhuang took the silk silk and wiped her eyes gently. touched the pain in his heart, and even his voice was not so good: "You are kind." It's a pity that others don't appreciate it. ”

Concubine An bowed heavily to Concubine Zhuang and sincerely apologized: "Anyway, the concubine committed an unforgivable mistake back then. Concubine Zhuang is virtuous and doesn't care about the concubines, but the concubines can't get over their hearts. Today's repetition of the old things will inevitably make your heart ache. The concubine apologized here. ”

Three prostrations, each with a sound. Concubine An's actions were deferential and sincere, which made Concubine Cheng's eyes red. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. On weekdays, An Concubine and Mei Guiren don't have any contact, so it's no wonder that she wants to pass things through Peishuang of Yongshou Palace, and it's hard for her to be so attentive. ”

Ruyue saw that the queen was weak, and inevitably said: "Your Majesty, the concubines of Zhuhua don't know about it. Even if Peishuang really gave it to Mei Guiren, it was nothing more than kindness. If a good intention does something bad, the concubine is willing to be punished, but the concubine can't afford to be charged with pretending to be a ghost. What's more, the emperor, you have always believed in ghosts and gods, and you are not allowed to have such gossip in the harem. As a concubine, how can a concubine ignore your will. ”

The emperor bowed slightly, and asked Mei Guidao: "Then do you have such a bead flower?" ”

Mei Gui was frightened, and he didn't dare to reply to the emperor immediately. Helplessly, the suspicion in the emperor's eyes was deep and thick, and he didn't seem to believe it easily. She could only nod solemnly: "The concubine may have it, but she has been bedridden for several days, and she has not used any beads." Moreover, the emperor is gracious, and there are indeed a lot of concubines rewarded, and the one sent by Pei Shuang is not complete, so I really don't know if the concubines are exactly the same. ”

"That's easy." Ruyue glanced at Qin'er, who was standing far away: "Because Mei Guiren is pregnant, everything sent to Changchun Palace should be recorded. Just look through the register to find out. ”

"Chang Yonggui." The emperor seemed to remember something: "I remember what objects were rewarded in the palace of the noble people, and the Internal Affairs Office also backed up and forwarded them to me. I didn't catch up at the time, so you went and fetched it. ”

Concubine Cheng agreed: "Yes, if the reward is recorded on the same day, it must be sent to the emperor soon, and it will definitely not be able to do it." A check will make it clear. ”

The queen was stunned for a moment, she was as clever as a concubine, and she still had this trick. The emperor also sent a file book, so he must not be able to fake it afterwards, but Jiang Lian of the Internal Affairs Office is her person. The most terrible thing is that Chuxiu Palace sent a lot of objects to Changchun Palace......

"Your Majesty." Ruyue never got up, but her face was very serious: "The concubine wants to ask the noble lady clearly, did she see the same 'ghost' as the queen mother in Fubi Pavilion that day?" ”

Mei Guiren didn't want to be as fast as the concubine, so she pointed the finger at herself, and her heart jumped suddenly. "Your Majesty, the concubines have never seen it."

"Oh?" Concubine Zhuang was obviously very strange: "If you haven't seen it, why are you frightened?" ”

Concubine Cheng frowned, looking slightly impatient: "Concubine Zhuang's sister is so confused, that charming nobleman is scared of the queen." It's not that I've seen anything. ”

"Oooh!" Concubine Zhuang nodded again and again, and repeated playfully: "It turned out that the queen mother was scared." Suddenly, she also stood up, her eyebrows locked: "Then from beginning to end, if you see a ghost under the water, you are the only one who is not the queen." If others don't see it, you can say whatever you want! The concubine is about to ask you, and at that time she said that she was scared by the dead Liu family, why did she turn her face and become a ghost again. Can't the queen see clearly, is it the Liu family or An Concubine? ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine really thought it was the Liu family at that time. But after thinking about it carefully, I felt more and more that it was Concubine An who was pretending to be Liu. Concubine An used to be by the side of the palace, and she was also very good at makeup. What's more, she is also familiar with the nature of water, and she is underwater, so it is difficult to ensure that the concubine was frightened and did not see her clearly. The queen consciously said very well-organized, but she didn't know that the emperor didn't believe a word.

"Your Majesty, in the past, the concubines and An concubines had many knots, and you didn't know it." Ruyue said calmly: "The queen also said that she has been following the mother for a long time. From the house, to the palace. Even if An Concubine wants to trust, she must trust the queen, will she trust the concubine! Isn't it too suspicious to talk about colluding with concubines? ”

Concubine An also looked aggrieved: "Your Majesty, if the concubine does something bad with good intentions, she should not be blamed for the concubine instead of the concubine." But what she hasn't done, how can the concubine admit it? Besides, if the concubine is really jealous that the noble woman is pregnant with a dragonborn, why should she use beads to remind her! ”

"An Concubine is kind, and she has not done a bad thing. It's just that some people are narrow-minded and can't tolerate others, so they deliberately provoke it! Concubine Zhuang glanced at the queen coldly, and knelt down solemnly: "Your Majesty, since the matter has never been able to come up with real evidence, such as the noble concubine Niangniang is innocent." Even if others doubt, it can only be doubted after all.

In the old days, the concubines were reluctant to mention it again and didn't want to cause trouble to the emperor again. Xiaowei is still waiting for the concubine in the palace, if there is nothing to do, the concubine will retire first. ”

The queen looked at her coldly, and her tone became more and more cold: "Concubine Zhuang is in a hurry to leave, isn't it to arrange the rest." Even if there is no evidence of the matter of Fubi Pavilion, such as the matter of the noble concubine instructing Shi Qianmo to defeat the dragon fetus of the noble man, it can't be just settled. ”

"What?" Concubine Zhuang came late, and she didn't know that there was such a thing, so she was a little stunned immediately: "Didn't the little princess give birth smoothly?" What a slippery tire! ”

The emperor sighed lightly, and only said after a long time: "In the matter of Fubi Pavilion, only the queen can clearly see that there are 'ghosts', and it is still close to evening, not night, which is a little strange." ”

Mei Guiren heard the meaning of the emperor's words, obviously suspicious of the queen, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Xu is the queen's mother is dazzled for a while." But the queen's mother treats her concubines really well, and she will definitely not deliberately scare her concubines. Besides, hasn't Niangniang herself been sick for a long time! The side can be arranged, how to arrange this disease? ”

Ruyue smiled contemptuously, her face was no longer as serious as Fang Cai: "Mei Guiren is willing to believe that the queen is not intentional, so it is naturally the best." ”

Chang Yonggui also held the record book at this time: "Your Majesty, please take a look." "I don't look at it, you can say it!" The emperor was a little embarrassed, and said in annoyance: "To make a long story short, the first is that the noble people want to rest, and the concubine still has a body." ”

This is clearly what he said to the queen, not just to Chang Yonggui.

"Except for Chuxiu Palace, there are no palaces next to it that have sent more than a dozen pearl flowers." Chang Yonggui was concise and to the point, without too many expressions.

Everyone was silent, and Concubine Cheng turned her head away and didn't want to look at the queen again.

Ruyue finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but fortunately, Concubine An did not have any thoughts about harming herself. Otherwise, the emperor will most likely protect the nobles. In fact, she herself couldn't figure out what kind of charm this charming nobleman had that could make the emperor care about her like this. Is it just enough to pretend to be pitiful and innocent?

Thinking of this, Ruyue felt a little depressed in her heart. "Qin'er, this palace feels thirsty."

"Yes, sissy." Qin'er nodded slightly and retreated respectfully.

"Your Majesty." Mei Guiren bit her lip in confusion, tears rippling slightly in her eyes. seemed to have grievances, but there was a willingness to endure it, and no one leaned on the emperor's arms.

It's just that the emperor didn't take her into his arms as before.

It was not easy for the noble man to resist the panic in his heart, and he fell on the emperor's shoulder as if nothing had happened.

When Qin'er presented the clear water, there was obviously a hint of joy in her eyes. Ruyue has been with her for a long time, and she has a tacit understanding. "Your Majesty, you also said that you will not pursue the matter of Fubi Pavilion just now. So now, the concubine wants to talk about another matter. ”

The queen turned back and glanced at Ruyue with great resentment: "What does Concubine Ru want to say?" Isn't it a matter of a flattering nobleman outside the Ministry of Internal Affairs? ”

Shi Qianmo, who had been kneeling silently at the back, couldn't help but shake his body. Fortunately, everyone's eyes only fell on Ruyue's face, and they didn't pay any attention to him. Will you admit the crime, or will you ...... Or tell Lu Tian's secret? Shi Qianmo was like being tied to a fire, and the taste was really not as good as dying immediately.

After all, Lu Tian is him......

"Of course not." Ruyue's sonorous voice interrupted Shi Qianmo's contemplation. "What the concubine wants to say is why the six sons around Mei Guiren died in Yanxi Palace. And Xiaowei, who was kidnapped by the six sons and concubines, why did it start. ”

Concubine Zhuang didn't make it, but when she heard Ruyue's words related to Xiaowei, she was even more energetic. "Hasn't the noble lady already explained to us about that matter? Why did the concubine Niangniang mention it again at this time? ”

"Your Majesty, please allow the concubines to send someone to come and make the words clear in person." Ruyue did not directly respond to Concubine Zhuang's words, but instead signaled her to be calm.

"Exactly." The emperor turned slightly sideways, pushed away the charming nobleman in his arms, got up by himself, and chose a place to sit upright. Only then did he say, "Get up." ”

The queen said yes and slowly stood up. Concubine Zhuang then got up and sat down with the queen. When people brought it up, everyone was stunned.

"Zhang Ping said hello to the emperor, said hello to the queen's mother, and I have seen all the mothers." Zhang Ping's face still looked calm, but he obviously didn't have the confidence and pride he had last time.

"Isn't this the guard who saved Xiaowei in Yanxi Palace?" Concubine Zhuang was puzzled: "Could it be that there is something hidden in this matter?" ”

At this moment, Mei Guiren has determined that it must be Lu Tian who has been exposed. But she wasn't sure how much the concubine knew, and when she thought of this, her heart became more and more uneasy. What if even the little princess is not of royal blood, and the concubine is also stable? Not only did he have to die, but even Lu Tian had to die.

Is it necessary to lose this poor child who was born in order to keep his beloved? Mei Guiren's heart struggled painfully, thinking that if he didn't make a decision, he was afraid it would be too late!
