Soon it was the next year, and the only Wang Ye who could attend the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet today was King Chen, the Queen Mother sat on the left side, I sat on the right side of Long Yuzun, Concubine Qi and Concubine Hui and the two side concubines of King Chen sat on the right side below, and Princess Jiahui, the daughter of King Chen and Concubine Qi, sat on the left side.

I suddenly missed that man, it had been so long, he had not heard a single thing, I didn't know where he had gone, he had disappeared from the world since that day, and I couldn't hear a word about him.

Maybe it was me and I who were a little distracted that made Long Yuzun a little unhappy, but I saw him squeeze my hand tighter, and I frowned slightly and looked at him.

Every time Qian Mo thought of that man, he had such an expression, he was unhappy in his heart, and he frowned almost invisibly and looked at Concubine Hui who was sitting on pins and needles at the moment, and asked coldly: "Concubine Hui must have worked hard to organize the banquet, seeing that your face is not good, is it uncomfortable?" ”

The Queen Mother looked at Concubine Hui firmly, which invisibly put great pressure on Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui didn't expect the emperor to suddenly talk to herself, she was surprised, dropped the jade spoon in her hand, and reflected what she had done, Concubine Hui knelt down anxiously and said: "Ask the emperor for forgiveness, the concubine is too tired today, so she was distracted and lost her honor in front of the palace, and asked the emperor for forgiveness." ”

"It's nothing, there are a lot of things to do in the new year, and Concubine Hui is hard." He glanced at Concubine Hui coldly, and saw that Concubine Hui had been only looking at Qianmo's dining table, and frowned secretly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty" The moment she got up, she glanced at me in a panic, just collided with my suspicious eyes, her face suddenly became a little white, and she hurriedly walked back to her seat.

I looked at the table and ate the same food as usual, and even had several more delicious dishes, almost invisibly frowned, I touched my stomach, and subconsciously didn't dare to eat the meal prepared by Concubine Hui today.

"What? Is it that the food prepared by Concubine Hui is not in line with the queen's taste, the mourning family has never even eaten a snack when they see the queen, but don't starve the grandson of the mourning family. Seeing that she had not moved her chopsticks for a long time, the Queen Mother said a word with a smile, and instantly pulled the attention of the whole hall.

"After returning to my mother, my appetite has not been good since I was pregnant, and I can't eat, but I have failed to live up to Concubine Hui's sister's wishes." I didn't expect the Queen Mother to take the initiative to talk to me, so I quickly replied with sincere fear.

"That's the case, a pregnant woman is like this, she has a bad appetite, but she still has to eat, after all, the child in her belly also has to eat." Her words not only made me suspicious, but even Long Yuzun's brows caused a trace of suspicion.

"If you don't want to eat it, forget it, why should the queen mother want the queen to eat." He said slightly, but it made the Queen Mother's face a little unkind, but Concubine Qi saw that the atmosphere in the hall was a little embarrassed, and said in a friendly manner: "The Queen Mother is also for the good of the queen, why should the emperor be angry." ”

"Yes, the queen mother also cares about me, but the sons don't know how to be polite, I hope the queen mother won't be angry."

"Nothing." She held the evil fire in her heart and said through gritted teeth.

"Brother Huang, my brother heard that General Zhao won the battle, and he will soon return to the court, congratulations to Brother Huang." King Chen's loud voice brought some joy and interaction to the palace at this moment, but this joy did not last for a moment before King Chen spoke again: "In previous years, there would be a second brother and a third brother below, but now they are all in the people, and they don't know where to go. ”

His words made people feel shocked, and the hall instantly fell silent, and the sound of my jade spoon falling on the porcelain bowl was particularly obvious.

"Fourth brother." Princess Jiahui looked at the fourth brother, who was already a little drunk, pulled his gold-rimmed sleeve robe, and called him in a low voice.

Long Yuzun glanced at King Chen, listening to the voice made by my side, he only felt extremely harsh, this woman always had that man in her heart, and his anger rose from this, and he clasped the table slowly but firmly and said: "They are traitors. ”

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly fell silent, and Long Yuzun looked at the people below and said coldly: "Today is a family banquet, and the second brother has never been treated badly in the Zongren Mansion, Brother Chen should not mention those irrelevant people." ”

"Hehe, the younger brother lost his words, I hope the royal brother will not blame." He smiled, half drunk and half incriminated, and said to him.

"Nothing." He said coldly, and glanced at the woman on the right again, looking at the untouched food on her table, she was a little suspicious, the banquet had been going on for so long, why didn't she move those meals.

And the Queen Mother seemed to be more anxious, looking at me more and more times, I clenched my hands, and suddenly looked up at Concubine Hui, she seemed to be looking at me too, and her face was even whiter when she was frightened by my sudden eyes, and she avoided in embarrassment.

Until I left the table, I didn't take a bite of the food on my table, only holding a spoon and slowly stirring the clear soup, but I didn't drink a single bite.

Long Yuzun's face became more and more unkind, he faintly guessed whether Qianmo's eating would make people move, he looked at the woman next to him who didn't say a word, with a cold breath all over his body, and looked at Concubine Hui with gloomy eyes.

Until those songs and dances have retreated, the princes and princesses have also resigned, all the people have left, and only me and Long Yuzun are left in the hall, he slowly walked to my side and said to the eunuch beside him: "Go to the Tai Hospital and ask Tai Doctor Zhang to come." ”

"How did you guess I thought the food was poisonous?" The habit I developed in the past two months made me tremble a little in my heart, and there was a tacit understanding in many places, I held his hand and got up, asked slowly, and sat for a long time, and my legs were slightly numb.

"Life in the palace doesn't make you lose the sharpness and intelligence you deserve." He then asked slowly: "You haven't eaten all night, you're a little hungry now, I'll go back to Changchun Palace later, and I'll ask the palace people to prepare dinner for you." ”

"Well, I've been hungry for a long time." I smiled at him and saw the eunuch come in.

I sat indifferently on the side, waiting for Imperial Doctor Zhang to take it over.

I saw that he was still in a cold sweat on his forehead in this winter, and his body trembled, and he asked slowly, "What did you put in?" ”

"Back to the emperor, back to Niangniang, this anchovy shark fin, Longjing bamboo sun, as well as palace pickles, and Xianglong Shuangfei all have drugs that make people have abortions, and the amount is extremely heavy, even if you just eat a little bit, you will have abdominal pain."

The imperial doctor trembled and knelt down and replied, tonight was Chinese New Year's Eve, but he still had to be on duty in the imperial hospital to prepare for the empress dowager's unexpected needs.

"Got it, go down, if tonight's events leak out, you just don't want your own head." I looked at him as if he didn't listen to what was going on outside the window, and warned him in a deep voice.

I know very well in my heart that the Queen Mother's seemingly fluttering words that day revealed her murderous intentions, she was a person who was pregnant with Long Yuzun, how could she not tell the difference between 3 months and more than 4 months of pregnancy.

"How can this be reasonable, come here, give me Concubine Hui into the cold palace." He was unwilling to delve into it in detail, so he directly ordered Concubine Hui to be sent to the cold palace.

"Let's all go out first." I temporarily stopped the eunuch's attempt to announce the decree, and said in a rather serious tone.

"Why does the emperor bother to whitewash the peace, obviously Concubine Hui doesn't have such courage. She looked at me so timidly just now, how could she really have the audacity to poison my food. I said coldly what he actually understood in his heart, and I saw his determined expression after struggling, and then said, "She has always been the queen mother." ”

"She's going to kill my child." I no longer have the slightest respect for that woman in my words, she can slander me as much as she wants, but she can't touch my child, thinking of this, I touched my stomach and said firmly: "What is in my belly is my life." ”

"Okay, you stay in the Changchun Palace, you don't need to go to the queen mother to say goodbye, I will also have a message not to let the queen mother enter your Changchun Palace." He saw that I seemed to be a little excited, and was afraid that I was angry, so he hurriedly comforted me.

"Long Yuzun, I am willing to stay in the Changchun Palace, but you have to help me keep the child in my belly, this is the most basic." When I heard him say this, I relaxed my heart a little, made a deal for myself in my heart, and said slowly.

"Really? Are you really willing to be in Changchun Palace? ”

"Yes, but only if you can keep the baby in my belly." His face darkened slightly, after all, this was someone else's child, and he always had a thorn in his heart, but when he heard that this woman was willing to stay in the Changchun Palace, his heart was as satisfied as the water in the cup overflowed the rim of the cup, which was different from binding her in the palace.

I was a little scared in my heart, if it weren't for the doubts in my heart, my child might not be able to be saved tonight, even if Long Yuling abandoned me, I still had to use my life and my freedom to keep his child.

"As for Concubine Hui, don't blame her, she came to me to discuss many things, she was very good to me, and she never really thought about harming my children." I sighed, Concubine Hui is still very good, if Concubine Hui is sent away, the Queen Mother will not let me go.

"It's all up to you, but I will find someone you trust to cook your food alone in the future, and start a new stove in your Changchun Palace, what do you think?"

"Okay." I was helped by him to walk outside the hall, the cold wind rushed towards me, I shivered coldly, gathered my big coat, and wrapped myself tighter.

When the chief eunuch saw the emperor and queen come out, he bent over and stood aside and asked, "Emperor Qiqi, do you still have to announce the will just now?" ”

"No, nothing happened tonight." I made the decision before Long Yuzun spoke, and the eunuch no longer had any words, he knew that sometimes the queen's words were more effective than the emperor's words, and when there was a disagreement, the emperor would still take the queen's opinion in the end.

"Master Qiyu, during the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet last night, someone drugged and assassinated the princess's fetus."

Li Min brought the news to Long Yuling, who was meditating, and Long Yuling, who heard this, opened his eyes, the cold in his eyes was pressing, and he walked in front of Li Min very quickly, and asked anxiously, "Then how is she?" ”

"The princess is fine, the princess is alert, and she has not eaten anything from the night banquet." Hearing this, Long Yuling slowly fell back into her stomach, that woman was so difficult in the palace, there was no freedom and convenience, and now she was going to be assassinated by someone to assassinate the child in her belly.

He had to implement that plan as soon as possible.
