Chapter 295: Mama Qian's Confession
It was night, Mama Qian lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and what Princess Chen said during the day was still echoing in her head.
The things of decades ago, in the middle of the night, appeared in front of her one by one, she really just wanted to live a stable life, think about it, before the queen mother ordered the poisoning of all the people in the queen's palace in order to prevent her affairs from spreading, and she still remembered the deaths in the palace.
"Mother, why don't you sleep yet." Xiao Liu complained a little.
"It's nothing, you can sleep."
Mama Qian is no longer sleepy, Princess Chen is right, if the Queen Mother is going to kill her one day, then she will not die very unclear, it is better to tell everything about it, maybe she can be exchanged for the protection of King Chen's Mansion. Thinking of this, she couldn't sleep anymore.
Look at the sky outside, it will be at least two hours before dawn. Thinking of this, Mama Qian had no intention of sleeping anymore, put on her clothes, and sat until dawn, then changed her clothes and walked out.
Mama Qian was very careful in her work, she tried not to arouse anyone's ideas along the way, and when she came to the door of King Chen's mansion, the gate of the palace had been opened, and King Chen walked out of the mansion and got into a carriage and walked in the direction of the palace.
Mama Qian knows very well that King Chen is going to the court, so what about Princess Chen? Is she going around the back door? Just thinking about it, Rean Xue stepped out, "Mama Qian, I'll take you in through the back door, the princess is waiting for you in the mansion." ”
What the? Did Princess Chen guess that she would come? Yes, she has already arrived at the gate of the palace, if she regrets it, I am afraid it will be too late.
Immediately, Mama Qian followed Rean Xue around the back door of the palace and walked into the palace, Mama Qian felt the difference in the palace, she had been with the Queen Mother for so long, and she had been to countless palaces, but Princess Chen was a little different from other palaces, she didn't expect the courtyard where Princess Chen lived to be so elegant.
"Mama Qian, please inside. The princess is waiting for you. Ning Xiang stood in the courtyard with a pot of hot tea and a few plates of snacks.
Mama Qian followed Ning Xiang into the house, the room was very warm, burning the earth dragon, and there was an elegant magnolia fragrance in the whole room, which made people feel warm in this winter.
"Mama Qian, sit down. I must be hungry when I came here so early in the morning. Let's have some snacks and a cup of hot tea first. Chu Lixue pushed the snacks on the table in front of Mama Qian and said.
Mama Qian was not polite, picked up the dim sum and ate it herself, she has served people in the palace for so many years, although sometimes the Queen Mother will reward her with some dim sum, but it has never made her feel so dignified. What others don't eat and throw away for themselves is different from what others prepare for themselves.
After using the snacks, Mama Qian took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Princess Chen, it's okay if you want me to tell me everything I know, but you must ensure the safety of me and my son, otherwise I won't let you know, even if I go to hell with a secret, I won't tell you." ”
"Well, as long as you tell the truth, you and your son will be well accommodated, and I promise that no one will hurt you."
"Can you really guarantee it?"
"It is absolutely guaranteed, I will arrange for your mother and son to live elsewhere, now the power of the Bai family is not like before, after leaving Cloud City, there will be no one who threatens you."
I don't know why, Mama Qian believes in what Chu Lixue said, and besides, she is also old, and she doesn't want to go back to the palace to serve people, now she just hopes to leave Cloud City smoothly.
"Princess, since this is the case, then I will believe what you say." Mama Qian said in a deep voice. After thinking for a moment, Mama Qian slowly spoke.
"Princess, the Queen Mother didn't want to enter the palace before entering the palace, she had a friendship with King Jing, I thought that the emperor and the queen didn't like her, so she could be with King Jing, but I didn't expect the Queen Mother at that time to let her enter the palace. Later, when the Queen Mother went back to her hometown to save her relatives, she met King Jing, and then the two of them became a good thing. But after the queen mother entered the palace, the emperor never honored her at all, and a palace concubine lost her innocence in a good manner, so naturally there was no way to explain it. Therefore, she took advantage of the emperor's drunkenness to make the emperor think that she was fortunate to her, and then gave birth to the current emperor. ”
Sure enough, the emperor's bloodline is not correct, no wonder he wants to usurp the throne. At that time, she wondered how a mere Bai family could have such great ability, it turned out that King Jing was behind her.
"And what about the death of King Chen's biological mother?" Chu Lixue lifted the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea.
Hearing Chu Lixue ask, Mama Qian was slightly stunned, and the snack in her hand fell to the ground. It seems that the debts owed will be repaid after all.
"It's the queen mother, because the queen found out that the queen mother and King Jing were in harmony, and they couldn't let King Chen's mother die too obviously, so they put safflower water in the fetal medicine that King Chen's biological mother ate, because King Jing said that if the safflower was directly put into the medicine, the imperial doctor could find the problem as long as he checked the slag, so he boiled the safflower into juice, just a little bit every day, and then later, King Chen's biological mother was born prematurely." Mama Qian said with tears in her eyes.
Chu Lixue looked at her appearance, not knowing if she was repenting for what she had done, or if she was afraid that Chu Lixue would be unfavorable to her. However, since she had promised her that she would not be killed, Chu Lixue would keep her promise.
"You mean, my mother was killed by the Bai family and King Jing?" King Chen's cold voice sounded outside the door.
Mama Qian looked up and happened to meet King Shangchen's murderous gaze. Suddenly, Mama Qian knelt on the ground, "His Royal Highness King Chen, I know that what I did is unforgivable, but my son is innocent, he has nothing to do with these things, as long as you are willing to let my son go, if you want my life, take it." ”
What is the greatness of maternal love, it has been vividly shown from Mama Qian, she may have a lot of bad, but she is wholeheartedly good to her son, and even her son is an idle waste.
"Your life, this king is not rare, but you must make it clear, what else has the Bai family done besides harming my mother?"
"Yes, yes, the emperor, the emperor was also killed by the queen mother, when Empress Xiaoxian passed away, the emperor was very sad, and the emperor also realized that the current emperor was not his own, and before he started the investigation, the emperor died depressed."
King Chen knew very well that his father and mother had a deep relationship between husband and wife, and the death of his mother and younger brother in his womb must have been deeply affected. Under the double blow of losing a wife and children, no matter how powerful a person is, he will fall.
"Say, how did they kill my father?"
"The emperor fell ill at that time, and they replaced the most important ginseng in the emperor's medicine with radish."
What the? Radish for ginseng? This kind of thing is really unheard of, think about it, how can you say that it is the imperial pharmacy in the palace, how can you use radish as ginseng? That's something for the emperor to eat, do you dare to fake it?
"Are you saying that they used turnips instead of ginseng to give medicine to my father?" King Chen said angrily.
"Yes, King Jing bought a little eunuch from the imperial pharmacy and replaced the ginseng in it with a turnip."
"How dare he? Also, didn't the imperial doctor check the slag? King Chen wondered.
"Of course there is, but they didn't do it at first, and it was only when the emperor recovered seventy or eighty percent that they changed the medicine. The purpose is to worry that something is wrong with the drug. ”
I see, this King Jing is really thoughtful, he can even think of this layer, and quietly push people to the land of no return.
"Mama Qian, just based on what you said, you want us to believe that all this was done by King Jing and the Bai family, then you are treating us as three-year-old children, and I also know that you dare not confront King Jing and them face to face, so you must come up with more powerful evidence to prove that all this was done by them."
Chu Lixue was very thoughtful, although Mama Qian was the person next to the Queen Mother, what she said would definitely make people believe it, but there was still a lack of evidence, there was no full evidence, the Queen Mother and King Jing could bite back at any time, and even kill people, such a thing, they should be very handy.
"Evidence? I have the proof. At that time, when King Jing asked the little eunuch to do this, he gave the little eunuch silver. Mama Qian was pleasantly surprised.
Silver? How can silver be used as evidence, the silver is exactly the same, it is indeed far-fetched to want to be evidence, and besides, the little eunuch did such a thing, and King Jing didn't hurry up to kill people and kill his mouth? Do you want to keep him and wait for the day when he bites him back?
"Mama Qian, don't tell me that King Jing hasn't killed that little eunuch yet, and he still has his life, right?" Chu Lixue wondered.
"Yes, I really didn't kill it, Xiao Fuzi is still working in the palace, but he has now become the steward eunuch of the imperial pharmacy, over the years, King Jing and the Queen Mother have done a lot of things, all through the hands of that little Fuzi, so, if you look for that little Fuzi, you will definitely know more details." Mama Qian offered a treasure and said.
Chu Lixue didn't expect King Jing to really not kill that little Fuzi, it seems that if it weren't for King Jing for fear of arousing suspicion, that is, this little Fuzi had some means, otherwise how could he have done so many bad things and still be able to leave his life?
"Princess, I have already said everything I know, is it okay to ......" Mama Qian said tentatively.
"Okay, Rean Xue, send Mama Qian out, don't let people see it." Chu Lixue commanded lightly.
"Yes, Princess." Rean Xue took the order and walked out with Mama Qian.
After Mama Qian left, Chu Lixue looked at the back of her leaving, and couldn't help but think about it.
