After listening to Concubine Zhao's words, the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan did not say anything, and only ordered Concubine Zhao to stay in the room and not leave, and instructed the imperial doctor to try her best to treat Concubine Li, and then took Princess Jin'an and a few other trusted cronies to the next room.

"What do you think about this?" Empress Dowager Xiaoduan glanced at the eldest princess of Jin An and asked slowly.

"That tea doctor has already experienced, someone has poisoned it," the eldest princess of Jin An was the first to speak, and said her inference concisely, "But the person who may not be poisoned is Concubine Zhao who is alone with Concubine Li." ”

"A Zhao Guifei is not stupid, she chose such an opportunity to start at a time that she can't get out of it anyway; Second, she has indeed never done anything to her children over the years; Third, she knows that this matter is in the hands of your old man, and she will only investigate it more carefully and clearly, and it is no better to escape than if it falls into the hands of the queen. ”

There are no filial piety among the emperor's favored concubines, so the filial piety of the Empress Dowager has no scruples, and a thorough investigation of things will only be handled impartially, and no one will be partial, which is harmful to the people who really harm people.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said again: "Concubine Zhao is arrogant and domineering and does what she wants on weekdays, while Concubine Li is delicate and cautious on weekdays, but this does not mean that Concubine Li is a good-hearted concubine - there are not ten concubines in the harem who have been trampled on by her openly and secretly, there are not ten but eight, right?" ”

Someone chimed in: "Concubine Li is the most inconsistent and ruthless, and she is not sure that she is planting Concubine Zhao by herself!" ”

There are countless people in the harem who use their own bodies and even their own flesh and blood to make a game, and it is no wonder that some people will suspect the victim of Concubine Li, after all, there is no simple woman who can climb to the position of concubine!

At this time, the phrase "the most dangerous place is often the safest place" popped up in Wei Qingqing's mind for no reason.

Although it is not very appropriate to describe the current matter, she still expressed her opinion after thinking about it, "The courtiers crossed the line and dared to say a few words. ”

"Tell me about it." The eldest princess of Jin An said.

Wei Qingqing didn't know the person Zhao Guifei, so she first asked something that had nothing to do with the matter, "The courtier dared to ask the eldest princess a word first-how does that Zhao Guifei usually behave in the world?" ”

The eldest princess of Jinyang replied without thinking: "Concubine Zhao has always acted rashly and unscrupulously, and has been in the palace for many years, except for the queen mother and the imperial brother, she does not look at anyone when she sees it, treats people arrogantly and rudely, and never gives in when she encounters problems. ”

In just a few words, Concubine Zhao's arrogant and domineering temperament was clearly pointed out.

Wei Qingqing then said her guess, "According to the words of the eldest princess, Concubine Zhao looks like a person who will win in the fire and win in danger, and this matter may not be what she did." ”

The eldest princess of Jinyang had an epiphany, and said thoughtfully: "You mean that it is precisely because Concubine Zhao and Concubine Li are alone in the same room and can't get out of it anyway, and others think that she will not be stupid enough to pick such an opportunity to start, so she wants to go the opposite way and deliberately find this opportunity that will make her the most suspicious?" ”

Wei Qingqing nodded yes, "This is just a little foolish opinion of the courtier, and the truth needs to be carefully investigated." ”

"This matter has to be carefully investigated," Empress Dowager Xiaoduan finally spoke, but said another thing that puzzled her, "What did Concubine Zhao talk about with Concubine Li?" She refused to speak out when she defended herself, and this matter may be the key to the whole thing. ”

Everyone has their own opinions, and Concubine Zhao is still the most suspicious person, but Concubine Li is not fully trusted.

After the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan initially listened to everyone's speculation, she took everyone back to the room where the incident occurred, but happened to see that Concubine Zhao Guifei was unhappy and ordered someone to take the white thrush hanging under the porch to her.

Wei Qingqing thought that Concubine Zhao wanted to tease the white thrush to relieve the depression in her heart, who would have thought that the white thrush was sent to Concubine Zhao, she did not tease the bird stick, but pulled out the golden hairpin on her head...... Stabbed into the body of the white thrush!

"Tss

A terrible cry pierced everyone's ears!

Concubine Zhao seemed to feel that the stab was not enough, so she stabbed in again with the golden hairpin in her hand, and pulled it up again and again, one after another, without blinking an eye!

The white thrush fluttered its blood-stained wings and kept making a high-pitched cry......

The sound made Concubine Zhao frown slightly, and then accelerated the frequency of the stabbing until the white thrush was out of breath before stopping.

After Concubine Zhao vented her unhappiness in her heart, she casually threw the bloody golden hairpin into the birdcage and sat back in place as if nothing had happened.

She took the handkerchief presented by the palace maid, wiped the blood splashed on her face, her movements were elegant and her face was indifferent, even if the people present were not only her henchmen, but also the imperial doctor and Li Concubine, even if Wei Qingqing and others walked in in turn, she still did not change her face and did not hide it, as if she was not afraid of people's words, nor was she afraid of others looking at her with strange eyes.

There was a faint smell of blood in the room, which made everyone feel very uncomfortable, and their eyes at Zhao Guifei were a little more solemn - Zhao Guifei was so angry and acted so perversely, I am afraid that she really has the courage to harm people under the nose of the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan!

The eldest princess of Jinyang frowned slightly after sitting down, pinched the handkerchief and half-covered her nose, and her tone was quite displeased, "I heard that Concubine Zhao likes to torture and kill living things, this palace originally thought that it was just a rumor from the palace people, but when I saw it today, I realized that it was true!" ”

"The Taoist temple is a place for cultivators to cultivate, and the queen mother came to listen to the sermon today, and you are so blasphemous and blasphemous, and you have polluted the eyes of the queen mother...... What a crime! The eldest princess of Jinyang said that she had already reprimanded a little at the end.

"This palace is the emperor's concubine, and it is not the turn of the eldest princess to teach her a lesson," Concubine Zhao never put the eldest princess of Jinyang in her eyes, and only slightly blessed the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan, "It's just that she slaughtered a flat-haired beast, doesn't the Empress Dowager even blame the concubine?" ”

Concubine Zhao Guifei had a fearless look on her face, "I don't know how many puff pastry pigeons are used in the palace all year round, if this flat-haired beast can't be killed, then the palace must first stop this emperor's favorite delicacy." ”

At this time, Concubine Li's palace maid Wan'er knelt on the ground with a thud, and complained to Concubine Zhao with tears in her eyes, "The slave dares to say something disrespectful - it must be the concubine who harmed our mother!" When the concubine was pregnant, the long-haired cat raised by our mother accidentally collided with the concubine and caused her to fall and slip the fetus......"

Only then did Wei Qingqing know that there was such an old grudge between Concubine Zhao and Concubine Li, and it involved the imperial heir.

According to Wan'er, Concubine Zhao believed that Concubine Li deliberately set the cat to scare people and make her lose her child, and after the slippery fetus, she hated Concubine Li, not only changed her tricks to trouble Concubine Li, but also said several times that she would seek justice for her child sooner or later.
