Chapter 224: Dying Struggle

The queen stepped forward to persuade.

"Misunderstanding? Mama Qin has already checked, and Miss Su is not perfect. "The Queen Mother is unceremonious, how can such a woman marry into the royal family? Before getting married, he was married to another man.

Hearing the queen mother's reprimand, the queen couldn't hold her face, this kind of thing has a great impact on the woman, and she is the daughter of the Su family, which will affect the reputation of the entire Su family.

"Yingxue, what's going on?"

The queen frowned and reprimanded.

Su Yingxue cried: "After the dinner last night, I also drank some wine, so I was about to go back to rest with the maid, and when I was walking on the road, I suddenly ...... Natsutake appeared in front of me and knocked me unconscious, and then I didn't remember anything. ”

Then she pushed the maid beside her hard: "Didn't you say you saw her?" ”

The maid turned her head in a daze, the queen and the queen mother also looked at her, and Su Yingxue saw that she didn't speak, so she pinched the maid hard.

Only then did the maid come back to her senses: "Slave maid...... The slave maid was woken up by Xia Zhu, and then she also pricked the slave maid's acupuncture points with silver needles, which hurt very much......"

Su Yingxue immediately looked at the queen and proved her innocence: "Queen Mother, you have to make the decision for me, it's all made by Xia Zhu!" ”

When the queen heard it, she thought it was too possible: "Queen Mother, Xia Zhu didn't like Ying Xue very much before, and there was little contact between Imperial Doctor Zhu and Ying Xue, so there would be no such relationship, I think I was framed." ”

The Queen Mother looked at the two of them: "You mean that Xia Zhu knocked you out last night and brought you to Yangchun Pavilion, and then Imperial Doctor Zhu also appeared in Yangchun Pavilion without explanation, but even so, it doesn't mean that anything will happen between you." ”

Su Yingxue preemptively explained: "It was Mu Jiaren who used medicine, you are so good at medical skills, you must have drugged us!" ”

The more the queen listened, the more angry she became: "Where is Xia Zhu?" Why haven't you come yet? ”

Gonggong Li came over and replied, "Xia Zhu is not in the dining room, and ...... Didn't return overnight. ”

The queen was completely furious: "Queen Mother, this matter is already clear, it was Xia Zhu's doing, and now she is afraid of being held accountable and runs away!" ”

The Queen Mother was just about to give orders to look for it again, when there was a message from outside the door that "Concubine Qi has arrived".

Concubine Qi brought Yue Ying in, the queen knew that this was always an ugly thing, and she didn't want to publicize it, and she didn't want to see Concubine Qi who had returned to favor at this time.

"Neither the palace nor the Queen Mother summoned Concubine Qi, why did she come here?"

Concubine Qi bowed and looked very well-behaved.

"To the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, please be safe." After speaking, she raised her hand, and Xiao Shunzi and several other eunuchs carried a stretcher and brought Mu Jiaren in.

"The concubine heard that the Queen Mother had summoned Xia Zhu, so she brought her."

Xiao Shunzi put the stretcher on the ground, Mu Jiaren turned over and lay on the ground, and said with a weak face: "Slave Xia Zhu, please give peace to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother." ”

The queen glared at Mu Jiaren, ready to attack, but the queen mother opened her mouth first.

"What's wrong with you?"

Concubine Qi explained to her: "Miss Xia Zhu's knee is seriously injured and she can no longer walk or kneel. ”

"Heh, the other day I saw her as usual, so soon I couldn't walk?"

"If the queen doesn't believe it, you can ask the imperial doctor to come over for treatment."

The Queen Mother also has doubts in her heart, but when things come to this point, no one will dare to lie anymore.

"Lord Ouyang was sentenced by the Chuan Tai Hospital."

"Yes."

When Ouyang Zheng entered the palace from the Tai Hospital, he happened to meet the emperor who came to greet the Queen Mother.

"See Your Majesty." Ouyang Zheng lifted his robe and knelt on the ground to salute.

"The queen mother sent you to check the pulse, but you are not feeling well?" The emperor was worried.

"I don't know."

Gonggong Li stepped forward to explain: "The Queen Mother asked Imperial Doctor Ouyang to rectify Xia Zhu. ”

"Natsutake?"

Gonggong Li didn't know how to describe what happened today, so he had to say, "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story. ”

While the queen and others were waiting inside, they suddenly heard "The emperor has arrived!" Several people hurriedly got up to greet them.

As soon as the emperor entered the courtyard, he saw Mu Jiaren crawling on the ground, and there were Imperial Doctor Zhu and Su Yingxue kneeling in the house, and the queen and Concubine Qi were also there.

"What's going on today? I just went down to the court, I don't know what happened, but I actually alarmed the queen mother. ”

Ouyang Zheng came over later, and the Queen Mother asked him to treat Mu Jiaren first, so she told the emperor about the matter briefly.

The emperor's face was extremely bad after hearing this, and the queen immediately explained: "Your Majesty, this matter must be framed by Yingxue, this child has been simple-minded and timid since he was a child, and he will not do such a ridiculous thing, let alone in the palace." ”

"If it is framed, I will definitely find out and punish it severely!"

"Imperial Doctor Ouyang, what's the situation with Xia Zhu's injury?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Miss Xia Zhu's knees are bruised and swollen, and she has injured her bones, and she really can't walk."

"Is this a new injury?" The emperor asked.

Ouyang Zheng shook his head: "No, when the emperor left the palace to hunt, Weichen saw Miss Xia Zhu come to the Tai Hospital with some medicine to dispel dampness and cold, and the reason why her knee has not healed is because she is tired all day, and second, she ......."

Ouyang Zheng paused for a moment, and when the emperor saw that he was hesitant, he agreed: "It's okay to say anything." ”

"Second, because of poisoning, although it is not highly toxic, but because it has not been detoxified in time, it will let this disease drag on until now."

The queen's eyes were sharp, and she found some clues: "Imperial Doctor Ouyang, Xia Zhu moved freely before, but he couldn't go to the ground today, is it because he did heavy work yesterday?" ”

"It's a possibility."

Ouyang Zheng replied truthfully.

"Your Majesty, it's made by Xia Zhu! She knocked Ying Xue and Imperial Physician Zhu unconscious, and then took them to Yangchun Pavilion! ”

The queen was indignant at the complaint.

"Don't worry, queen, I will definitely ask clearly." The emperor looked at Mu Jiaren, "What's the matter with your injury?" ”

"The slave's injury was because when he was in the East Palace, he inadvertently broke the vase given by the emperor to the princess, and was punished by the princess to kneel for two hours.

"Pass the crown prince over, the crown princess is pregnant, just pass her personal palace maid."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, the slave maid still has something to say." Mu Jiaren continued to speak.

"How else do you want to quibble!" The queen scolded and did not let her continue.

"Queen, things must always be asked."

He already knew that Xia Zhu was Mu Jiaren, and Beichen Ye was about to return to Beijing, even if she made a mistake, she needed to find out what was going on if she wanted to be punished.

"This woman is very good at demagoguery."

"A palace maid can bewitch me, so how can this throne sit firmly?" The emperor was a little dissatisfied with the queen's anxiety, after all, the Su family was her mother's family, and this kind of thing would be a shame for the entire family.

"The concubine lost her words." The queen shut up smugly.
