However, where could the conceited Wei Zhongliang be stimulated by He Xi, he didn't even have time to look at Lan Ruo's eyes, so he said conceitedly: "Although Mrs. Xi is a little familiar with medical science, but medicine is profound, I am afraid that Mrs. Xi does not understand, even if it is harmonized with good medicine, the medicinal properties will become ineffective over time, and it will last for three months at most." ”

Wei Zhongliang replied extremely quickly, and Lan Ruo coughed lightly, as if his throat was uncomfortable.

Qiao'er on the side took the tea and handed it to Lan Ruo's hand to her, Lan Ruo's long armor hit the wall of the cup and made a slight sound, and then, she heard He Xi's chuckle, Wei Zhongliang didn't expect He Xi to react like this, he said a little angrily: "Mrs. Xi, what advice do you have?" ”

He Xi stared at Wei Zhongliang with a pair of eyes, and said: "Since Imperial Physician Wei said this, then this matter is a little strange, if the concubine is not mistaken, the slave maid entered the palace in early April, and the concubine has been giving this medicine to the queen for nearly three months, I don't know why Imperial Physician Wei still identifies the ingredients of saffron in it?" ”

The corners of her eyebrows and eyes were all sharp questions, Wei Zhongliang hesitated for a while, he turned his head to look at Lan Ruo, but he didn't expect things to develop like this, this medicine bag was indeed made by He Xi, but Lan Ruo added something again, so that there would be a conflict in time, seeing that Wei Zhongliang was silent for a long time, He Xi said: "Your Majesty, the concubine asks herself to do things above board, and she does not allow others to frame the concubine more, if Imperial Doctor Wei can't say a thing or two today, the concubine implores Imperial Doctor Lu Chuan Lu to identify, will definitely be able to return the innocence of the concubine. ”

Tuoba Chen looked at her coldly, and she did not show weakness.

Concubine De said, "Imperial Doctor Wei, what the hell is going on?" You're all going to confuse the mourners. ”

Wei Zhongliang's face turned pale, and he said after a while: "Back to the concubine Niangniang, the old minister did identify the smell of saffron in this medicine bag, but Mrs. Xi said that the medicine bag was wanted to give to Niangniang three months ago, and this matter still needs to be verified." ”

Wei Zhongliang is now lying by wanting to bite He Xi to death, but how can He Xi be the kind of weak woman who is slaughtered by others? A pair of eyes seemed to sink into the bright stars, looked straight at the first few people, and said: "This matter must be to ask the queen mother, the queen mother has no children under her knees, and now there is Lin'er in the palace, the eldest prince, and the lady concubine is pregnant, and it is understandable that she is in a hurry." ”

Lan Ruo saw that she was directing everyone's attention to herself, and she was angry for a while, and suddenly, she heard a sound of the bead curtain, and a somewhat delicate voice sounded behind her: "The concubine believes that the queen mother will not harm the concubine." ”

Seeing the visitor, Tuoba Chen immediately got up and walked over, took her hand and said, "Why don't you rest inside, you are weak now, didn't the imperial doctor tell you not to move around?" ”

Tuoba Chen personally pulled Xu Qing'er to sit on the soft collapse again, her expression was nervous, real nervousness, Lan Ruo watched from a distance, and suddenly felt that her heart was stuffy, and the sour feeling was like a snake climbing up her heart, she forcibly suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and echoed: "That is, Sister Shufei should lie on the bed and rest at this time, don't let Your Majesty and Sister worry." ”

Xu Qing'er's face was still as pale as Fang Cai, she quickly glanced at He Xi who was kneeling on the ground, and said softly: "Although this medicine bag was given by the queen's mother, but the concubine has not been used to it, so she asked someone to add a taste of red plums into it, which also has the effect of calming the nerves and helping sleep. ”

Her voice was weak and graceful echoing in the hall, Lan Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, Wei Zhongliang's face turned pale, and he picked up the medicinal herb again to carefully identify it, he looked at Xu Qing'er with some suspicion, only to see that Xu Qing'er also looked at him fixedly, there seemed to be something flowing in a pair of beautiful eyes, and he held the medicinal herb tightly in his hand.

He knelt down again and said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed the taste of red plums and salvia, but Fang Caichen was in a hurry for a while, and mistakenly thought that someone wanted to harm Concubine Xu Shu, so he was misjudged to be saffron, and it was the minister's incompetence, please forgive me." ”

He bowed heavily in front of Tuoba Chen, and Lan Ruo said softly: "Imperial Doctor Wei has always been in charge of the pulse of the palace, and has always done his best, Your Majesty, this time it must be also a matter of concern, but Mrs. Xi deliberately pushed the matter of Concubine Shu Niangniang to be seen with our own eyes, this-"

Tuoba Chen just glanced at Wei Zhongliang, who was kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Xu Qing'er, who was half nestled in his arms, and said in a slow voice: "Mrs. Xi has lost her virtue and has been reduced to a talented person, she has no virtue and no action, and she is not worthy of raising the eldest prince. ”

Tuoba Chen felt Xu Qing'er's hand tremble slightly, and couldn't help but clench it, and said softly and comfortingly: "Don't worry, I will definitely give you back a fair life." ”

Xu Qing'er didn't even have the courage to look at He Xi's direction at this time, Lan Ruoping had the right to raise the eldest prince for nothing, and she was very happy at the moment, but the Autumn Dew Hall was a cold palace, but the hundred-legged insect died without stiffness, and there was nothing more reassuring than a dead person, she said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, Xi Cairen is suspected of murdering the emperor's heir, this is a capital crime, so understated, I am afraid that if the previous dynasty knew-those ministers-"

"The former dynasty? Is this harem my harem or the harem of the previous dynasty? Is it Prime Minister Lan Cheng or Xu Shangshu who can handle this matter? Tuoba Chen's voice seemed to be a little colder than the tone of the order just now, and Xu Qing'er shrank slightly in Tuoba Chen's arms.

Lan Ruo also seemed to remember something, stopped talking, and just said softly: "Your Majesty is angry." ”

There was no more sound, He Xi was still kneeling straight, Ruyi and Chou'er on the side heard that their little master had saved his life, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, Concubine De looked at He Xi who was beaten into the cold palace, there was not even a trace of ripples on her face, her expression was like a Gu Tan without waves, she sighed, such a stubborn woman, she grew up in the deep palace since she was a child, and since she was a child, she watched her father's concubines tremble to death one by one, and later she was involved in this whirlpool, and she has seen too much, The queen and Xu Qing'er's clumsy measurement is not worth mentioning in front of her, she just wants to see how He Xi will respond, in her opinion, He Xi is an extremely smart woman, just from the fact that she dares to seek her own refuge for Tuoba Lin, she can even see that the fact that her identity as the princess of Xiliang makes Tuoba Chen jealous is enough to show her intelligence, but in this matter, she seems to have bowed to fate, and she actually gave up resistance.

Concubine De's heart actually rose up with a kind of anger that hated iron and steel, she turned her face away with some annoyance, and said to Tuoba Chen: "Does Emperor Lin'er want to give it to the queen to raise?" ”

Tuoba Chen was stunned and asked, "Does the concubine have any opinions?" ”

Lan Ruo hurriedly said: "The concubine will definitely do her best to raise Lin'er, don't worry." ”

Concubine De put on a doting face, and tightened Lin'er into her arms and said, "Tell me that Lin'er has changed several concubines since she lost her mother." The mourning family originally thought that He Xi was a reliable one, but they didn't want such a thing to happen now, there are many affairs in the queen's palace, why don't you put Lin'er in the mourning palace to raise? ”

Lan Ruo didn't expect to kill a concubine in the middle of the way, and said a little anxiously for a while: "Concubine Niangniang, this child is very noisy, and it won't be good if it's going to be noisy then." Or put it in the palace of the concubine, if the concubine Niangniang really misses Lin'er, she misses it tightly, and the concubine takes Lin'er to Shoukang Palace every day to ask the concubine for peace. ”

Concubine De's expression was silent, and she didn't pay attention to Lan Ruo's words, she just stared straight at Tuoba Chen and said, "What does the emperor think of this proposal of the mourning family?" ”

Lan Ruo also looked at Tuoba Chen, as if he was also waiting for his answer. Tuoba Chen sighed and said: "The concubine's worries are reasonable, if the concubine doesn't dislike it, then send Lin'er to Shoukang Palace, but if Lin'er really tires the concubine, I will definitely bring him back." ”

Lan Ruo's fingers tightly clasped the chair of Lihua Nanmu under his hand.

Concubine De smiled slowly and said, "The emperor and the empress have a heart, but now there are really too few children in our harem, even if you add this one in the belly of Concubine Shu, there are only two." The queen has to work hard. ”

When Concubine De achieved her goal, she began to joke about Tuoba Chen and Lan Ruo as if she were an ordinary old man, and Tuoba Chen smiled heartily and said, "I also hope that I can have a prince of my own with the empress." It's just that this can't be rushed. ”

Lan Ruo lowered her head as if she was shy, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the concubine Niangniang-"

For a while, there was some joy in the room, no one paid attention to He Xi who was kneeling down, only Tuoba Lin sat quietly on Concubine De's lap, looking at He Xi fixedly, He Xi was also looking at him, she unconsciously covered her eyes with a layer of fog, and whispered to Tuoba Lin in the direction of Tuoba Lin, Tuoba Lin opened his mouth and smiled at He Xi, He Xi only felt that his heart was soft and soft, fortunately, fortunately, he protected Lin'er, her body fell softly, her eyes were dark, and there was no intuition.

When I woke up again, there was a damp musty smell on the tip of my nose, a faint wind blew in, dark clouds dispersed, and a cold moonlight sprinkled a scattered mottled light and shadow along the broken window lattice. She noticed a man standing in front of the window, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, with a restrained bearing, and his black hair swaying freely with the night breeze. I heard the sound of her waking up, and I didn't turn around.
