"If you are familiar with this bead, in addition to the emperor, there must only be Concubine Hui who wears it on your body every day, yourself." Su Wanrong said with a stiff face: "If you prepare an identical one in advance and throw it at the feet of the concubine, and then wrongfully accuse the concubine of wanting to murder you, it will be the simplest." And only you, like a prophet, knew early on that this bracelet would break. ”

It sounds like this, it is indeed Hui Guifei who is the most suspicious. Everyone looked at Concubine Hui silently, with different thoughts.

At this critical time, he no longer wants to speak out. The more wonderful the place, the more you have to hold your breath and watch slowly and listen carefully. Only in this way can we see things that others can't see. Don't let yourself be emotionally turbulent with this tense atmosphere. Only by calming the mind is the magic weapon to win by surprise.

So she secretly observed everyone's every move, silently guessing who had such a vicious mind, and she enjoyed it.

Lan Xin felt that things were not so simple. Concubine Hui no longer wants this child, and she really can't embarrass Concubine Chun in front of everyone, you need to know that if there is any deviation, wouldn't everyone know about the fake pregnancy. After all, it is difficult for the emperor to explain there. It's too revealing of her intentions.

With these beads alone, Lan Xin couldn't see anything wrong, to put it bluntly, at this time, he could only wait until the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought the person who handled it, and then make a final conclusion after a detailed investigation. "Xue Guining, you are prepared to send Concubine Chun back to the palace first, and then ask the imperial doctor to come and see her."

I suffered such a big loss, and the queen didn't ask Hui Guifei for saying a word, just because the imperial heir is in the belly, is it more valuable? Who has never given birth, and it is not certain whether she is a man or a woman in the womb of Concubine Hui. Su Wanrong saw that the queen was biased in favor of Concubine Hui, so she was angry: "Queen Mother, the concubine can stand up." After all, it happened to the concubine, the injury was also suffered, and the blood was shed, and the concubine always knew who did it, so she didn't panic in her heart. ”

Lan Xin's fierce gaze pierced into Concubine Chun's eyes like a small arrow, and she couldn't disobey: "Concubine Chun is Yongzhang's mother, if there is any damage, the most pitiful thing is the innocent child." Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about how miserable it would be for such a young child to lose his mother. Since he was injured and bleeding, he should go back to the palace and rest as soon as possible.

Besides, you don't have to be sure of a pure concubine, it's just that someone deliberately harmed you. According to the palace, it may not be that someone else has done something to cause you to be injured. Maybe all this is just an accident, Concubine Chun shouldn't be too rash and lose her former gentleness. The emperor and the palace, in the end, still like you who were as supple as water in the past. ”

The queen used Yongzhang as a threat, and Su Wanrong didn't dare to say anything else: "The concubine obeys the order." Where is she willing to succumb, she only hates that she can't get the trust of the queen mother, pull out Concubine Hui as soon as possible, and then fight against the queen. Annoyed and worried, Su Wanrong had to think about Yongzhang, so she had to swallow her anger and retreat with the help of others.

Concubine Chun knelt down halfway, which relieved the once tense atmosphere at that time. No one dares to target Concubine Hui like her. After all, mothers and children are expensive, and their identities are different, so who is stupid enough to hit a stone with an egg.

Chen Qingqing, a noble man who had not spoken, seemed to notice something, and walked closer to the end of the position. "Queen Mother, can you let the concubine take a look at Fang Cai's silk thread?"

Lan Xin handed the torn silk thread into the hands of Wan Guiren, and she fiddled with it for a long time. Seeing that she seemed to have found something, he instructed Suo Lan: "Show the red agate beads in the enamel box to the noble Wan." ”

Chen Qingqing smiled slightly, as if thanking the queen for her trust, and then took the box with a frown and looked at it carefully. Almost every bead, Chen Qingqing took a closer look. At the end, she was slightly blessed: "Can the queen mother borrow some white fine powder from the concubine?" ”

"Slave and maid go and fetch it." Suo Lan was clever, thinking that the queen would definitely be gracious, so he took it and wrote it with brisk steps.

In front of everyone, Chen Qingqing threw one of the red agate beads into the powder and rolled it, and then took it out for the queen to see. "You don't have to look at the next place, just look at the bead core, what did you find?"

Lan Xin followed the place of her finger, took a closer look, and found that there was a piece of damage. "The powder was filled with beads, and when you poured it a little, it was clean. However, because this piece is not smooth, the powder is not easy to pour out if it is not smooth. Wan Guiren's sharp eyes can detect such a subtle defect. ”

"The queen is overrated, and the concubine just looks at the silk thread that should be smooth and slightly frizzy, and it is made of six strands. Nineteen beads are not heavy, and it is impossible to break them easily. Unless someone has made hands and feet on the beads, so that the inner core of the beads becomes sharp and can scratch the silk threads. So Hui Guifei Niangniang pulled it a little harder, and the thread was easily broken. Wan Guiren said, but his brows still did not loosen.

Concubine Hui took Bilan's hand and walked to the queen's side. "It's really embarrassing for them to think of such a delicate effort to harm the concubines. In this way, if it weren't for the concubine who broke the bead with her hand today, this bracelet might have tripped the concubine at some point. Looking at the agate stained with honey, Gao Lingxi gritted his teeth: "Who is so intolerant of concubines and concubines' children?" ”

Wan Guiren shook his head, and he had no way of knowing. When she had finished speaking, she bent her knees and quietly retreated. She returned to herself and sat down at the end of the main hall. It seems that coming and going is her own business. Neither do others pay attention, nor are they sad for their own decline and loneliness, and they are detached from things.

Jin Peizi saw it in her eyes, but felt that this graceful and noble person was really kind. After thinking about it, she still felt relieved: "Dare to ask Hui Guifei Niangniang if there are any other ornaments that have been sent to the Internal Affairs Office recently, or what have the servants of the Internal Affairs Mansion added to Niangniang?" Such things that harbor evil intentions always have to be guarded against. ”

Gao Lingxi smiled slightly, and the brilliance in his eyes was like a spring branch: "Thank you for your concern, this palace has not sent anything to the Internal Affairs Office recently, and because of the inconvenience of my body, I rarely use the ornaments sent by the Internal Affairs Office." In response to the demand, Bi Lan led the palace maids to serve carefully, and in the end they would not bring it so recklessly as this bracelet. ”

As he spoke, Gao Lingxi smiled regretfully: "It's a pity that such a good red agate is the only one." If all of them are so damaged, isn't it a waste of things? ”

Lan Xin shook his head and poured the other beads into the powder box: "That's not necessarily, when the noble man checked it, Bengong also took a look at it, maybe only this one was passive." The remaining eighteen are still intact. ”

Sure enough, Suo Lan checked each bead rolled with powder again, and it was really intact. "Plus the bead that Concubine Chun handed over just now, there are exactly nineteen. If Hui Guifei doesn't dislike it, just let people remake bracelets, and I can't see any difference. ”

Gao Lingxi's face sank into the ground, and he was very unhappy in his heart: "After all, it's not the emperor's intention." Even if others can't see it, it doesn't necessarily mean that the palace doesn't mind. ”

Suo Lan didn't want to be so seriously dissatisfied with the smiling Hui Guifei, so she hurriedly made amends: "The slave is too talkative, and I hope that the concubine will calm her anger." ”

Jinlan couldn't help but step forward and said: "What Hui Guifei said is very true, not to mention that these twentieth beads don't know where they popped out. Just put it on and put it on, and it always feels awkward. With that, she glanced at Suo Lan dissatisfiedly, and motioned for her to stop chewing on the root of her tongue. Not every palace concubine is as generous as the queen, and no matter how smart and clever she is, she may not be able to please everyone.

Lan Xin waved his hand and asked people to put away these beads for the time being. "Whether the minions of the Internal Affairs Office are ineffective are intentional or unintentional, this palace will definitely be able to find out. As for this agate, it is the emperor's intention, and one more or less will not affect anything. Why did Concubine Hui hurt her body for something the size of a bead. Left, but the palace asks the emperor to reward you with something. ”

The thing is gone, and the new one can be rewarded, but the love is gone, what way does the queen have the ability to turn the tide? Gao Lingxi thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask that. Because she knows that the emperor's heart is neither with herself, nor with the queen. came and went, but it was just a concubine who dared to rush him, ignore him, and even drive him out of the palace.

"That's it, what is a concubine is a concubine. It's not the concubine's, no matter how hard the concubine can, she still can't hold it in the palm of her hand after all. Gao Lingxi let out a long sigh and looked at the window lattice. The light of the early morning is really soft, and with the clarification of a layer of window paper, all that can be seen is a piece of warmth.

"If the beads are deliberately damaged, the concubine begs the queen to punish them severely. If it's unintentional, that's it. Gao Lingxi tried to open his mind and let that fresh and warm bouquet of fresh and warm into his heart that was on the verge of mold. It's just that the concubine is there, and the concubine begged the queen to explain on her behalf, in the final analysis, the concubine never meant to hurt her. ”

Lan Xin saw the sun-soaked brightness from Concubine Hui's eyes, which was a complete sadness, stirring the softest string in people's hearts. "It's best if Concubine Hui can figure it out, and this palace will explain it clearly to Concubine Chun. As for the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they should be brought in for questioning, and if there is no suspicion, they will only do as you say.

But it's you, take care of yourself. In the coming months, it is inevitable that you will be impetuous. Don't mess up your own square for the slightest little thing in the palace. ”
