245, Harem Undercurrent (5)
"Don't cry, since you know that you have the grace of your mother, you can cheer up and help your mother find out who is behind this as soon as possible," Qinglan glared at her with some hatred.
The matter is so big, naturally he can't hide it from Li Shimin, but he can trust his wife, and he doesn't think that a trivial matter in the harem can stump her, although he is a little annoyed that someone in his harem has disturbed his heir, but he doesn't intervene and ask more.
It wasn't until three days later that he came to the queen's bedroom, and saw that her frowns were still not stretched, so he couldn't help but ask: "Queen, the matter of Qingluo Palace is very tricky?" ”
"Your Majesty, this fact is a dereliction of duty on the part of the concubine, four days have passed since the incident, and the concubine still hasn't found out at all, and the concubine is worthy of Your Majesty's grace." Empress Eldest Sun shook her head apologetically.
"Isn't it that the other concubines in the harem stretched out their hands out of jealousy, and you couldn't bear it, so you ......?" Li Shimin glanced at her and said.
"Your Majesty thinks too much, the number of people in your harem is not large, there are only three melons and two dates in total, and there are no stupid people, how can they do such a thankless thing? Besides, if it was really them, the concubines would not cover it. Empress Eldest Sun glanced at her husband helplessly.
"Not from my harem? Who would that be? When Li Shimin heard this, his face suddenly became solemn.
If this was done by the women in his harem, although he would be angry, he would have taken it too seriously, and the jealousy between several women was not worth his effort.
But if this matter was not stirred up by the women in his harem, then it is worth investigating, these people can reach into the harem silently, and they may put their hands on his neck one day.
Could it be that Li Xiaochang's case has not yet been concluded, and those people are ready to start from his harem when they see that the palace cannot be changed?
Signaling this possibility, his pair of tiger eyes suddenly shot a terrifying light.
If these people really don't know how to advance or retreat, he doesn't mind going on a killing spree!
"Your Majesty should not be angry, maybe the matter is not as complicated as we think, please be patient for a few more days, and wait for the concubines to investigate and discuss again." The eldest grandson, who knew her husband's temperament well, was taken aback, she reached out to hold her husband's arm and persuaded softly.
"Guanyin, I understand your thoughts, not long after I ascended the throne, many things affect my whole body, so in the face of many persecutions, I can only choose to forbear, but if these people regard my forbearance as a good bully, I will let them taste regret." Li Shimin patted his wife's hand, but the fierceness in his eyes did not dissipate.
If this matter is really the handiwork of those people, he will not give up willingly, Empress Changsun glanced at her husband, sighed softly, and did not say more.
A few days have passed, and Wei Guifei, who has had fetal gas, has been conditioned by Imperial Doctor Jiang, and the fetal image has stabilized, and she can get up and move around at will.
In the afternoon of this day, she had lunch and was drinking tea, and Chun Yan came to report: "Niangniang, the queen is here." ”
"Ah, go out with the main palace to greet you." When Wei Guifei heard this, she hurriedly got up and went out with the two palace maids beside her.
"I've seen the Queen Mother." Wei Guifei greeted her outside the hall, and saw the eldest grandson queen coming from a distance, and immediately bowed down to salute.
"My own sister, you are pregnant again, you don't have to be polite." Empress Eldest Sun rushed over and helped her up, and said with a smile.
"The queen is here at this time, but what's the matter?" Welcoming the queen into the inner hall, Wei Guifei asked again, the queen has a big belly, and the harem has been eventful recently, she is very busy, and she shouldn't come here if she has nothing to do.
"First, I heard that my sister is fine, come and take a look, and second, it's really a little trivial." Empress Eldest Sun smiled slightly, she raised her eyes and glanced at Qingyan and Qiuxi, and said.
"You go out first and talk to my queen mother." Wei thought that what the queen was going to say should not be heard by them, so he subconsciously opened his mouth and gave an order.
"No, you don't need to let them out, there is just a question for Chunyan in this palace." Empress Eldest Sun hurriedly waved her hand.
"Oh, there's something wrong with the mother, but it's okay to ask." Wei Shi was stunned for a moment, but quickly took the words, but the spring eyes who were named by the eldest grandson queen were tight, and the hands under the sleeves unconsciously clenched together.
"Chunyan, if I remember correctly, you entered the palace in the second year of Wude, and you were only thirteen years old when you entered the palace, right?" Empress Eldest Sun's gaze fell on Chun Jing and asked.
"Hui Niangniang, yes." Chun Yan took a breath and spoke.
"You entered the palace at the age of thirteen, and three years later you were transferred to the Qin Palace, and you were assigned to Wei Guifei, because you have always acted safely, and you are one from the palace, the concubine relies on you very much, and it didn't take long for you to become the most powerful person around her."
"Later, Your Majesty ascended the throne, and after she became a concubine, she immediately made you the palace maid beside you, with your current status, as long as you follow the concubine wholeheartedly, you will definitely have a good future."
"But you just have a relationship with Li Xiaochang, and you have been involved, you have been lurking very cautiously over the years, until Li Xiaochang was ambushed, and no clues were revealed."
"If you can stop it in time, and leave everything involved with the outside from now on, you may not be able to die well, but you just made a move at this time when you shouldn't have made a move, to be honest, this palace is naturally good at knowing people, but it can't recognize you." Empress Eldest Sun sighed softly, and then spoke.
"I have nothing to do with Li Xiaochang!" Hearing this, Chun Yan's eyes widened suddenly, and he blurted out subconsciously.
Wei Guifei on the side was stunned, could it be that it was the Chunyan who had always been loyal to her in front of her who harmed her?
"Queen Mother, this, is this mistaken? Chun Yan has been loyal since she followed me, and there have been a few times if it weren't for her help, I, I might have made a big mistake, she, how could she ......" Xu was too shocked and unbelieving in his heart, and after listening to the words of Empress Changsun, Wei Guifei couldn't help but blurt out a sentence to defend her.
"I also hope not, because, this palace really can't think of a reason for her to do this, but the evidence is conclusive, Qinglan, show the noble concubine Niangniang what has been found out these days." Empress Eldest Sun sighed lightly.
Qinglan took out a piece of rice paper and handed it to Wei Guifei, all the things related to Chunyan that she had found these days were written on this sheet, and Ah Chou took two steps forward and walked to Chunyan's side to prevent her from jumping off the wall in a hurry.
After Wei Guifei finished reading it, her palms trembled unconsciously.
After reading this paper, there is no need for Empress Changsun to say anything, she has already believed the words of Changsun, because there are many things on this paper, which Chun Jing used the above excuses to say to her, and then did it.
"With the means of the queen's mother, if you want to fabricate some evidence and blame me a palace maid, isn't it a matter of rebellion?" Chun Yan was no longer low at this time, she looked at the eldest grandson queen and sneered.
"Oh, tell me, why should I frame you as a palace maid?" Empress Eldest Sun was not angry, and only asked lightly.
