The palace people carried the palace lanterns and surrounded the Nangong Mausoleum and Qingyun and hurried to the Xiangfu Palace.

Just stepped into the gate of Xiangfu Palace, and the palace people immediately knelt on the ground, and hurriedly shouted: "See Your Majesty, Concubine Jin!" ”

Nangong Ling didn't have time to make a sound to get them up, when he heard one after another painful moans and shouts from inside, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked in his heart, and asked anxiously, "How is Concubine De?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the Imperial Doctors are watching inside! The minions didn't know ...... "Xiangfu Palace's steward and eunuch Gao Yuan trembled his throat before he could finish speaking, Nangong Ling had already strode into the inner hall.

When the imperial doctors saw the emperor coming, they knelt on the ground again, "The ministers see Your Majesty, Concubine Jin!" ”

There was a hint of impatience on the cold Jun face, and Nangong Ling asked eagerly, "What happened to Concubine De?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty! Somehow, Concubine De suddenly showed signs of miscarriage, and the ministers were trying their best to save her! Zhang Lincheng's face was pale in shock, and beads of sweat the size of beans continued to flow down his forehead, and a drop accidentally flowed into his eyes, but he didn't dare to wipe it with his sleeve easily, so he had to keep his head down and blink his eyes.

"How so? Zhang Lincheng! How did you take care of Concubine De's fetus! If something happens, don't even think about your head! Nangong Ling was furious, and his deep and threatening voice frightened the Tai Hospital present, and all the legs and pillars trembled, if it wasn't for the breath to support it, I was afraid that they would have to lie on the ground softly.

"Your Majesty! Now is not the time for accountability, it is important to keep Sister Defei's fetus! Qingyun saw that he had weakened the hands and feet of these imperial doctors, and he was afraid that it would affect the treatment of Concubine De, so he hurriedly spoke out to persuade him.

"I'm still stunned, why don't you go and save Concubine De!" Nangong Ling scolded angrily.

Only then did the doctors stand up tremblingly, shaking their legs and getting busy.

Concubine De had fainted in pain, she was lying on the bed with a pale face like a dead person, her sideburns wet with sweat and sticking to her sideburns, looking slimy and very greasy.

The imperial doctor was pricking needles and stuffing the pills, and he was busy until dawn before he finally helped Concubine De stop the bleeding, Zhang Lincheng frowned and took the pulse nervously, his solemn face gradually eased, and at the end, he put away his hand and exhaled fiercely in his heart.

"Your Majesty! Fortunately, the fetus was preserved! It's just that I'm afraid that I won't be able to withstand the slightest accident in the future! Zhang Lincheng's tone was obviously a lot more relaxed.

"That's it! That's it! Nangong Ling also breathed a sigh of relief, his resolute and cold face seemed to be softer, and suddenly became serious again, and he asked in a cold voice: "Why is it suddenly about to have a miscarriage?" ”

The tense atmosphere in the hall was finally eased, because his cold drink immediately became tense again, and the palace people were so frightened that they quickly knelt down, and no one dared to answer.

"Zhang Lincheng! You said! Nangong Ling's cold voice was filled with terrifying anger.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the minister, Concubine Chade is afraid that she has eaten something that should not be eaten! It's like a blood-invigorating thing! Zhang Lincheng trembled his throat and cautiously finally finished speaking.

There were fierce waves in the deep pupils, and Nangong Ling's voice was extremely cold, "What did you give Concubine De?" Zhang Lincheng checked all the things Concubine De ate today. ”

Hearing this, Concubine De's personal palace actress curtain suddenly raised her head and said: "Today's Niangniang eats and uses the same as usual, these things are all in charge of a special person and are no different, the things on the banquet are not in line with Niangniang's appetite, Niangniang didn't move half of her mouthful, only ate some sour jujube cakes sent by Concubine Jin at night......

In the last sentence, the voice of the star curtain was extremely low, and his eyes glanced at Qingyun with a look of suspicion but not daring to doubt.

Zhang Lincheng immediately picked up the half-eaten sour jujube cake on the table, "But this bowl?" ”

Xing Curtain nodded repeatedly, and his eyes looked at Qingyun strangely and fearfully.

A trace of coldness crossed the beautiful eyes of the light clouds, shooting coldly towards the star curtain like countless cold silver needles, but in an instant, it returned to its usual indifferent calm.

Sure enough, after Zhang Lincheng examined it for a while, he said with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty, this bowl of sour jujube cake is stained with a lot of saffron pollen, fortunately, the mother doesn't eat much, otherwise I am afraid that I would have slipped the tire a long time ago!" ”

The star curtain that was still timid just now suddenly became excited, raised his head and asked loudly with the audacity:

"Concubine Jin, why do you want to harm our mother like this, our mother has always been kind to people, and you have always been good friends with your mother, why did you do this? Could it be that you deliberately approached Niangniang before for today? You are so vicious! ”

The more Xing Curtain spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes full of hatred stared at the light clouds, about to bleed.

Qingyun smiled coldly in his heart, staring at the face of the star curtain with great interest.

"Your Majesty! The concubine didn't, the concubine didn't put any saffron powder in the sour jujube cake!"

At this moment, she looked at Nangong Ling earnestly, her delicate and bright face was full of grievances and horror.

Nangong Ling also didn't want to believe that this thing was from Qingyun's hand, he didn't believe that his favorite woman would be such a vicious person, he calmed the shock on his face, and said in a deep voice:

"Just a bowl of sour jujube cake can't be concluded that Concubine Jin did it! This sour jujube cake is sent from Jiahe Palace to Xiangfu Palace, and there are many places where you can use your hands and feet! ”

He glanced at the star curtain that was crying extremely miserably, and said to Wang An on the side: "Wang An, this matter is left to you, and you must find out who is behind the poison!" ”

"Yes!" Wang An solemnly answered and withdrew to investigate, and when he walked to the door, he saw the queen in a gorgeous brocade dress wearing a dazzling gold ornament, surrounded by a group of palace maids, he gave a salute and left.

The queen walked up to Ying Ying and saluted, "The concubine sees Your Majesty!" ”

"See the Queen!" The palace people saluted and chanted in unison.

"Why is the queen here?" Nangong Ling's face looked a little impatient, and his tone was quite condensed and indifferent.

The queen didn't care as usual, her eyes were tightly pressed at Qingyun, and she said softly: "Back to Your Majesty, the concubine heard that something happened in Xiangfu Palace, and she came to take a look, and she also found the murderer who poisoned her!" ”

When the last sentence was spoken, the queen's gaze seemed to hide a steel needle shining with cold light and stabbed at Qingyun fiercely.

As soon as the words fell, a little palace maid in Tsing Yi was driven in by two little eunuchs, trembling and kneeling on the ground, not even daring to raise her head.

"Heads up?" The queen's majestic gaze swept sharply towards the little palace maid, and she asked coldly and intimidatingly, "Say!" Who instructed you to plant saffron? ”

The little palace maid in Tsing Yi slowly raised her head, her eyes glanced at Qingyun timidly intentionally or unintentionally, and whispered in a trembling voice: "Yes, yes...... Concubine Jin Niangniang instructed the servants to put saffron in the sour jujube cake, the purpose was to make Concubine De Niangniang slip the fetus! ”

"Bold slave! Do you know what happens when you frame a concubine! The cold face was filled with cold anger because of these words, and Nangong Ling said angrily with a calm face.

The thin body of the little palace maid in Tsing Yi trembled under this anger, and finally gritted her teeth and resolutely said, "Back to Your Majesty!" What the slave said is true, it was indeed Concubine Jin who instructed the slave and maid! ”

The delicate face as a flower suddenly lost its color, and Qingyun stared at the strange palace maid with empty white teeth who framed her with a pale face, and couldn't help but stumble back, and asked with a cold face:

"This palace has never known you, and has never spoken to you, so how can you order poisoning!"

"The slave maid is the palace maid Caozhi of Jiahe Palace, how can the mother not know it?" The little palace maid in Tsing Yi suddenly raised her head and stared at Qingyun unexpectedly, and her righteous look seemed to be really Qingyun's instruction.

"There are so many palace maids and eunuchs in Jiahe Palace, how can the concubines recognize them all? Your Majesty! The concubine did not instruct her, Your Majesty, you have to believe the concubine! ”

A pair of beautiful eyes on the pale face were so anxious that they were almost about to shed tears, and the tears kept rolling in the eyes but always stubbornly refused to fall, Chu Chu's appearance was really cute.

Nangong Ling's heart twitched suddenly, and a trace of pity and throbbing pain inexplicably appeared in his heart, and he said softly: "I believe that you are not such a person!" Rest assured, I'm here! ”

"Queen, how can you conclude that this matter was done by Concubine Jin just by the words of a palace maid? That's too hasty! The soft gaze instantly turned into a sharp arrow and stabbed sharply at the queen.

The queen's heart ached slightly, but she couldn't care about the emperor's attitude towards her at the moment, she gritted her silver teeth and said unwillingly: "The evidence is conclusive, what else can't be convicted!" Your Majesty is too partial to Concubine Jin! If the Queen Mother is here, I am afraid that her Majesty will say that Her Majesty is biased! ”

"Queen, you are so bold! How dare you take the queen to crush me!"

A sharp cold glow crossed Leng Su's face, mixed with a faint burst of rage, and a fierce burst of rage erupted, like a hideous storm suddenly attacking, and in an instant, it swept to every corner of the hall.

The palace people were so frightened that they almost threw their entire bodies on the ground, and some of them were even about to faint.

The queen has always been unrelenting, and she looks at the emperor with the majesty of her queen, she is using the power of her clan to force the emperor to compromise, but how can a proud and high-ranking emperor like Nangong Ling compromise with a woman.

"Your Majesty, our mother is indeed wronged! The slave dared to guarantee that the sour jujube cake was definitely not sprinkled with any saffron powder before it was sent to Xiangfu Palace! Occult Moon, who had been standing behind Qingyun, suddenly stood up and said loudly.

"You promise? What guarantees do you take? What's more, you are Concubine Jin's person, so naturally help her speak! Du Ruo, who was beside the queen, refuted with contempt with a hanging brow.

The thin lips curled up slightly in a disdainful arc, and the moon glanced at her disdainfully, and said:

"Because when the slave maid carried the sour jujube cake to the door of Xiangfu Palace, she happened to meet the eldest prince, and the eldest prince often went to Jiahe Palace to play, and the slave and maid were somewhat familiar with him, and finally couldn't withstand the prince's begging and secretly took two pieces of pastry to him, and the palace people around the prince also saw it! If the sour jujube cake had been stained with a large amount of saffron pollen at that time, the eldest prince would have had an upset stomach a long time ago, but there has been no news of the eldest prince's discomfort until now! ”

"Come on, go and pass Ji'er and the palace people who are waiting around her!" Nangong Ling glanced at the queen coldly and commanded sharply.

"Your Majesty, Ji'er is still a child, how can his words be taken seriously?" The queen suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, and immediately opened her mouth to stop it.

"It's because you're a child that you don't tell lies!" Nangong Ling didn't pay any attention to it

The queen directly ordered someone to invite Nangong Ji to come.

After a while, Nangong Ji walked over on his short legs surrounded by a group of palace people, and when he saw the emperor, his dark eyes instantly brightened, and he called excitedly: "Father! Sons and daughters see their father! ”

The big hand gently lifted his little arms, and his voice became much more kind and gentle, "Ji'er, you say, did this palace maid give you two a quick sour jujube cake that day?" ”

Nangong Ji looked in the direction of the emperor's finger, then nodded and said, "The pastries given by Sister Baoyue are delicious!" ”

"Is there anything uncomfortable about that Ji'er?" Nangong Ling continued to ask.

The immature little face looked dazed, and the eyes rolled for a long time as if thinking, and then smiled brightly, "No!" ”

"That's it! Let's take Ji'er down! Nangong Ling put away the kindness on his face and glared at the queen angrily, the gloomy anger in his eyes beating violently, as if he was about to burst out and burn it to ashes in the next moment.

"That being the case, it can be proved that this matter has nothing to do with Concubine Jin!"

"Your Majesty! This matter really has nothing to do with Sister Jin, and there is someone else who poisoned her! A soft, gentle voice sounded from the outer hall.
