Chapter 528: Bad News (Page 1/1)
The half-lit and half-dark stables were mixed with a complex and unpleasant smell and the uneasy neighing of the startled horses.
King Qi never thought that he would one day appear in such a place.
"What are you doing?" King Qi's eyes were on fire, and he couldn't wait to eat the coachman in front of him.
The coachman was so shocked that he kowtowed again and again to beg for mercy: "The prince spares his life, the prince spares his life-"
kicked it over again, and King Qi asked word by word: "You hurt the princess?" β
The coachman suddenly hit a spirit, as if he was frightened by the words asked by the king of Qi, and only after a while did he wake up like a dream, lying on the ground and trembling: "The old slave doesn't dare, and he doesn't dare to kill the princess!" β
This is exactly what King Qi finds strange.
The coachman is a domestic slave brought by the princess from her mother's family, how could he have the heart to harm the princess?
"And what are you wiping?"
The coachman shuddered and couldn't speak.
King Qi's eyes were as cold as ice, and he said coldly: "Don't say it's okay, be careful about your family!" β
The coachman shook his body and slapped him hard in the face: "It's all old slave lard that blinds the heart...... Something happened to the princess, and the old slave found that there was oil on the car board, and for a while he was afraid of being punished by the prince, he wanted to secretly wipe off the oil stains......"
Only then did King Qi understand the reason why the coachman did this.
There was oil on the board, and someone must have secretly sprinkled it, but the coachman, who should have been half a step away from the carriage, did not notice it, and it must have been the coachman who was lazy, or napping, or went elsewhere, so that people could take advantage of it. The coachman was worried that he would be blamed by his master, so he thought of destroying the oil and destroying the traces.
In terms of crime, the coachman's dereliction of duty caused the princess's miscarriage, and it is not an exaggeration to cut it with a knife.
King Qi suppressed the killing intent and asked, "You really didn't find anyone with suspicious deeds?" β
The coachman shook his head blankly.
King Qi's face was as pale as ice.
The coachman was horrified and kept sobbing: "The old slave should die, the old slave should die-"
"You do deserve to die." King Qi took a deep look at the coachman and turned to leave the stable.
The air outside was cold and refreshing.
King Qi looked up at the sky where the ink clouds were rolling, and his heart seemed to have fallen into the abyss.
He did not go back to the main room to accompany Princess Qi, who had a miscarriage, but went to the study in the front yard.
King Qi has always had the heart to compete for the throne, and there are many people who come and go, and the study room is naturally spacious and decent.
He plunged into it, slammed it hard for a long time before he quieted down, looked at the mess all over the ground and muttered, "Third child, you wait!" β
In the palace of King Jin, King Jin and Princess Jin rested together, and the lights in the house had been turned off.
Princess Jin couldn't sleep, so she quietly turned over and stared at the silver hook on the top of the tent.
An arm reached over and landed on her, and a man's voice sounded: "Can't sleep? β
Princess Jin turned sideways and said apologetically: "Did you make a noise to the prince?" β
"Nope. Why can't you sleep? β
Princess Jin was silent for a moment and said, "I'm thinking about the princess's miscarriage. β
"What do you want to do with this? There are many accidents in this world, Princess Qi is just a miscarriage, and it is not a loss of life, so it is not a big deal. β
Princess Jin pursed her lips.
King Jin patted her lightly and said softly: "Okay, go to sleep, don't affect your mood because of irrelevant people." β
"Well, the prince can sleep too." Princess Jin smiled and closed her eyes.
After a long time, the sound of even and long breathing sounded in her ears, and Princess Jin quietly opened her eyes and stared at King Jin's side face.
Is Princess Qi's miscarriage really an accident? Or the prince made a move-
Princess Jin didn't want to think about it anymore and closed her eyes again.
It's dawn.
The second day of the Lunar New Year was a good day, and the concubines in the palace went to greet the queen as usual.
They live in the deep palace, and the commotion last night has not yet reached their ears.
The queen had not yet appeared, and the waiting concubines chatted casually.
There have been no newcomers in the palace for several years, and the concubines and concubines are mixed well, or they are miserable and miserable, but they are very familiar after all.
Concubine Xian naturally became the focus of everyone.
"Sister Xianfei is blessed, and her two daughters-in-law are pregnant, which is really enviable."
"That's right, the two princesses will be able to add two grandchildren to Concubine Xian this year."
"I heard that the front and rear feet are often pregnant in different ways, one gives birth to a boy and the other gives birth to a girl, and when the time comes, the grandson and granddaughter of the virtuous concubine and the granddaughter will have ......"
"Is that what you say?" Concubine Xian, who had been smiling reservedly, looked at the little concubine who spoke.
The little concubine nodded: "There is such a saying in the concubine's hometown. β
"Princess Yan and Princess Qi are pregnant one after the other, I don't know who will give birth to a dragon grandson?" In the warbler Yanyan, I don't know who said a word.
Concubine Xian subconsciously frowned, and ignored the voice, but stared at the little concubine.
Which gave birth to a dragon grandson? Of course, she hopes that the fourth daughter-in-law will give birth to a dragon grandson. As for the seventh daughter-in-law, seeing the attitude of the seventh couple towards her as a mother concubine, she didn't have much joy no matter what she had.
If the seventh daughter-in-law's unscrupulous thing gave birth to a dragon grandson, wouldn't it be even more arrogant? This is something she really doesn't want to see.
The little concubine was a clever one, and said busily: "The concubine's hometown also said that it is a blessing to bloom first and then bear fruit, and the two princesses are blessed." β
Concubine Xian smiled and looked at the little concubine with approval.
This little hoof is still very good at talking.
It blooms first and then bears fruit, Princess Qi, who already has a daughter, gives birth to a son, and Princess Yan, who gives birth for the first time, gives birth to a daughter.
Although Concubine Xian knew that the little concubine had picked up what she liked to hear, who didn't want to listen to good words, she still couldn't stop her from being in a good mood.
The little concubine, who was praised by Concubine Xian, raised the corners of her mouth.
It is said that after the crown prince was deposed, King Jin and King Qi were the most likely to ascend to the throne, and with the support of Concubine Xian and the Duke of Anguo, plus Princess Qi was pregnant, King Jin may not be able to compete with King Qi.
If King Qi ascends the throne, Concubine Xian will be the de facto mistress of the harem in the future, and if she doesn't take advantage of it now, it will be too late to show favor in the future.
There are not many concubines who think like the little concubine, and many echoes sounded for a while.
The harem is often a shadow of the vestibule. For example, if the two ministers do not agree, if there are girls in the two families entering the palace, it will be impossible for the two concubines to get along. Now that King Qi has become a popular candidate for the crown prince, the concubines in the palace naturally flatter the virtuous concubines.
Concubine Zhuang lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea.
The matter of establishing the prince has not been mentioned yet, and these people are really positive.
"The Queen Mother has arrivedβ"
After a while, the queen dressed up appeared in front of the concubines.
The concubines immediately saluted the queen.
"No need to be polite."
After greeting the peace as usual, the queen said some trivial things in the palace and set her eyes on Concubine Xian.
"Sister Xianfei, there is one thing that this palace wants to inform you."
Concubine Xian hurriedly said: "The queen mother, please speak." β
According to the rules, the emperor will rest at the queen's place last night, what can the queen inform her of?
The queen paused for a moment and said, "Princess Qi unfortunately had a miscarriage last night. β
