Before entering the Chengxiang Palace, I had already heard Sun Baolin's mournful cry in the hall, and the palace maids were all cramped outside the hall, and they did not dare to enter the hall without orders.

The queen of heaven took Gu Mingzhu and Xu Siyan to the outside of the hall, listening to the heart-rending cry inside, her footsteps paused, her expression was still calm, and she instructed the palace maid: "Open the palace door." ”

The palace maid hurriedly opened the door and wanted to go in to pass the word, but was stopped by the queen of heaven: "She is inconvenient, so she doesn't have to come out, I'll go in and see her." ”

In the inner hall, there was a faint strong smell of medicine between the layers of curtains, and Sun Baolin was crying sadly: "My child, my poor child, he is still so young, how can he ......"

The palace maid on the side was comforting: "Baolin is relieved, the body is important, first recuperate the body, there will be more in the future, the medical officer said, you just had a miscarriage, you can't cry, you will cry and break your eyes!" ”

Sun Baolin's cry lingered: "But my child is gone, obviously in my belly, but now there is no more, who is it, who is it......"

The queen frowned and walked in: "Ah Mo still takes care of her body first, the medical officer can prescribe a prescription, is the decoction ready?" ”

Sun Baolin saw the queen of heaven as if he saw a savior, and hurriedly got up and was about to stay, with tears flowing down his hair: "Queen of Heaven, you have to be the master of the concubine, the concubine's child is ......"

The queen of heaven interrupted her words and let the palace maid support her: "You are so good to lie down, I have already heard the report of Zhou Shanggong, it doesn't matter if the child is gone, as long as it is good to be born, there will be blessings in the future." ”

Her tone was kind, but at the end of the word Fuze was a little obscure, and she quickly turned her head and ordered: "Why don't you bring the decoction quickly, and bring your Baolin a coat to put on, don't suffer from the cold, a woman's miscarriage is the most unbearable cold, and you have to give birth to a good life." ”

Concubine De, who was following behind her, also had red eyes at this time, and stepped forward and said softly: "When I left the palace early this morning, the concubine also asked people to ask about Sun Baolin's body, I heard that it was excellent, and the medical officer of the Imperial Physician's Department came to ask for peace of mind, so I was relieved to leave, how could I have thought of ......?"

She sighed softly, and said to Sun Baolin gently: "No matter what, your own body and bones are important, if you have anything, tell your mother, Niangniang feels sorry for you the most, and she will not teach you to be wronged." ”

Sun Baolin gritted his teeth and gurgled, holding the hand of the queen of heaven, tears pouring down: "Niangniang, the medical officer said that the concubine's child was killed, otherwise the good ones would not have had a miscarriage for no reason, someone must have moved a vicious mind, and begged Niangniang to administer justice to the concubine!" ”

The queen of heaven had a calm face, and instructed Xu Siyan to send the unrelated palace maids in the palace down, leaving only Concubine De, Zhou Shanggong, Gu Mingzhu and a few palace maids waiting in the inner hall, and then opened her mouth coldly: "Since the medical officers are so determined, it is natural to check carefully, the former dynasty and the harem are so unpeaceful, there must be someone who is responsible, I want to see who can have such means, so bold and reckless to disturb the peace in the palace!" ”

She held her head high and instructed Zhou Shanggong: "The use of Chengxiang Palace should be sent by the Shanggong Bureau, Zhou Shanggong, you and I will investigate thoroughly, what have been sent in the past few days, and what is wrong." ”

looked at Concubine De again: "The palace maids and grandmothers who are waiting in this palace are all determined by you, you can also check who has not been sent over in the past few days." ”

With that, she sat down on a mat in the inner sanctum: "I will wait here today to see who did it." ”

Gu Mingzhu and Xu Siyan stood behind the queen of heaven on the left and right, poured tea and soup for her, and instructed the palace maid to just let her come over to serve the queen of heaven, but Gu Mingzhu understood in her heart that it was not so simple.

She has been unusual since she entered the palace, although she said that she was the companion of Princess Anping, but she did not accompany Her Royal Highness to Chongwen Pavilion, but was sent to deal with the affairs of the inner palace.

The things in this Chengxiang Palace are obviously the secrets of the inner palace, but they don't hide it from her, a person who lives in the palace, and the queen of heaven takes her with her like this, which is more like deliberately trying to teach her and guide her.

Could it be that the queen of heaven is planning to ......

Before Gu Mingzhu could think about it, Zhou Shanggong had already replied: "The minister has ordered someone to check the records, the ingredients and utensils used in the Chengxiang Hall in the past few days have been purchased according to the rules, and the food sent has also been tried by the waiter herself, and there is nothing abnormal." ”

Concubine De asked Xu Siyan to ask the housekeeper a few words, and also replied: "In the past few days, no newcomers have come in to serve in the Chengxiang Palace, Sun Baolin has a body, and the people in the palace are all used to her, and she doesn't dare to be careless." ”

The queen of heaven snorted coldly: "It's okay to eat and eat, and the people who use it are also reliable, so how can someone do it!" There must be something missing! ”

The atmosphere in the hall was cold for a while, and everyone looked panicked, and no one dared to say a word.

It was still a palace maid who was waiting in the Chengxiang Palace's face changed, as if she remembered something, and stepped forward to bow to the ground: "The maid remembered, a few days ago, Baolin got the dogwood sachet sent by the Shang Palace Bureau, which was given to the nobles at the banquet in Chongyang Palace, and the maid remembered that Baolin played with it for a while that day before letting people put it in the cage." ”

Dogwood sachet!

The faces of the people in the palace suddenly became complicated, these private methods in the palace have always been varied, not only can you use your hands and feet on eating utensils, but even small things such as incense and sachets can also be used, and it is not easy to be noticed, it is also possible to say what you have done on the sachet.

It's just that the sachet was made by the secretary of the Shanggong Bureau, but it was sent by Gu Mingzhu personally, if there is really anything, I am afraid that Gu Mingzhu will not be able to get rid of it.

Concubine De's face changed, she looked at Gu Mingzhu and frowned, and said to the queen of heaven hesitantly: "Niangniang, that day it was the concubine who asked the county lord of Lingling to send the sachet over, although it doesn't sound credible, but after all, it is related to the Shanggong Bureau and the county lord of Lingling, so it is better to let someone take the sachet to check it out." ”

She looked at Gu Mingzhu apologetically: "You can't just implicate the county lord and the monk's palace bureau." ”

The queen didn't answer her, but looked at Gu Mingzhu: "Mingzhu, what do you say?" ”

Gu Mingzhu lowered her eyes, her eyes were calm and did not fluctuate at all, nor did she have the slightest look of grievance, she just curted her knees and said softly: "The courtiers don't know what the reason is, but they are ordered by the mother." ”

At this time, she wasn't even worried about being afraid, she wasn't afraid of what was really in the sachet?

The queen of heaven retracted her gaze and turned to look at Sun Baolin: "Let someone take the dogwood sachet and check it out to see if someone has done it!" ”
