552 Who is the master?
The news of the theft of the body of the red medicine spread quickly.
Concubine Li Xian was furious when she heard the news, "Bastard! So many people are guarding the mourning hall, are they all dead? I was able to lose the body in the coffin. ”
The henchman hurriedly said: "The slave will take it over to check." ”
However, after rushing over and turning over the entire mourning hall several times, he almost lifted up the ground, but he still couldn't find the body of the red medicine, as if the world had evaporated.
After all, if you can't find something as big as a corpse, you really can't find it.
The henchman went back dejected.
I was scolded by Concubine Li Xian again, "Rice bucket!" Idiot! You can't do such a small thing, what use do you want? Get out of here! ”
"Yes, the slave and maid are gone." The henchman and the mother hurriedly fled.
didn't get beaten, it was already a face given by the master to the slave.
It's not over yet.
In the afternoon, the palace maids who had seen the mourning hall before began to have stomach troubles, vomiting and diarrhea, and then fell ill one after another.
In particular, Ruizhu had diarrhea seven or eight times in a row, and she almost couldn't stand up.
In private, there are some rumors.
said that Hongyao died strangely, I am afraid that there is a grievance, and this is to come back to take revenge on the person who killed her.
Concubine Li Xian scolded when she heard this: "Nonsense! It's all nonsense! ”
She was a little weak-hearted, and she didn't want to believe in the ghosts and gods, but believed that someone was making trouble.
Therefore, he ordered, "Send someone to watch the palace maids in the mourning hall, keep an eye on them, and don't let them go crazy and talk nonsense." ”
The confidant mother immediately understood, and responded: "Don't worry, the slave will send someone to keep an eye on Ruizhu." ”
As a result, just as he was about to go, a little eunuch came running in a panic.
Seeing this, Concubine Li Xian was even more furious and reprimanded: "What to do? There's a ghost behind you?! ”
The little eunuch stammered: "Xian, Xian Concubine Niangniang, Ruizhu ......, Ruizhu is crazy!" ran around the outside, saying that Concubine Xian Niangniang instructed her to kill Hongyao Jieyu with a pillow. ”
"What?!" Concubine Li Xian was shocked when she heard this, and got up in a hurry, "Then what are you waiting for?" Hurry up, plug Ruizhu's mouth and grab it. ”
The little eunuch cried with a sad face, "It's too late, the emperor has already sent someone to arrest Ruizhu." ”
Concubine Li Xian sat back in her chair and stopped talking.
"Get out, get out!" The henchman hurriedly waved her hand, and then said hurriedly: "Concubine Xian, what can I do?" I knew that Ruizhu's mouth was so unstrict, I should have killed and disposed of it earlier! ”
"Kill? Who kills? Are you going to kill?! Concubine Li Xian said angrily.
The reason why she let Rui Zhu attack Hongyao was because she didn't want to involve the people in her palace, so that she would not be suspicious.
If you send your own people to attack Ruizhu, wouldn't you be a self-confessing person?
But......
Unexpectedly, Rui Zhu was frightened crazy by the haunting, and told the truth.
Concubine Li Xian only felt a headache.
She thought for a long time, gritted her teeth and said, "No matter! Since Rui Zhu is crazy, what the madman said is not credible, so this is Rui Zhu slandering me, and I don't admit it. ”
A eunuch suddenly came outside and said, "The emperor sent a virtuous concubine to go over." ”
Concubine Li Xian forced herself to calm down and said, "Okay, let's go." ”
When she arrived at the Jinluan Palace, she was surprised to find that Xiao Shaoxuan was also there, and she suddenly felt bad in her heart.
Looking at it again, it was not only Rui Zhu who was kneeling on the ground, but also the little eunuch she sent out before, who actually appeared alive.
Concubine Li Xian almost fainted on the spot.
Originally, Xiao Shaoxuan released a word, saying that he had caught the little eunuch who had passed the word, and thought that he was just deceiving her.
After all, Lu Ruoqing went to send her son to Niangniang Temple to ask for a son, Xiao Shaoxuan should be upset and keep paying attention to Lu Ruoqing, how could he notice others?
Therefore, Concubine Li Xian thought that the little eunuch had slipped away a long time ago.
Unexpectedly, I was caught alive!
Emperor Liangliang asked, "Concubine Xian, what do you have to say?" ”
Of course, Concubine Li Xian couldn't just admit it, but pretended to be confused and said, "Your Majesty, what do you want the concubine to say?" Oh, is it because of the loss of the corpse of the red medicine, do you want to blame the concubine for managing the harem? ”
The emperor was in no mood to talk nonsense with her.
said directly: "Hongyao's body has not been lost, and it is still lying in the coffin, don't dwell on this." ”
Concubine Li Xian's heart became colder and colder, and she smiled forcefully: "Didn't you lose it?" Ah......, that's good, that's good. ”
"Don't pretend to be confused in front of me!" The emperor slapped the table and said angrily: "Ruizhu has already recruited someone, saying that you instructed her to harm the red medicine, and Sheng Sheng covered the red medicine with a pillow to death." ”
"What does that mean?" Concubine Li Xian naturally couldn't admit it, but defended herself, "The concubine and Hongyao have no grievances, why did you instruct Ruizhu to harm Hongyao?" Your Majesty, don't be deceived by Ruizhu. ”
The emperor's face turned pale, and he pointed at the little eunuch, "You always know this little eunuch, right?" It's in your palace, right? He has now confessed that you instructed him to report a false letter to the King of Zhenbei, deceive the King of Zhenbei, and then let the killer assassinate the Princess of Zhenbei! ”
Concubine Li Xian immediately said: "Your Majesty! This little eunuch is indeed from my palace, but I have not instructed him to report a false letter, let alone instruct any killer to assassinate Princess Zhenbei! ”
"Just don't admit it?" Xiao Shaoxuan suddenly sneered.
"Why admit something I haven't done?!" Concubine Li Xian gritted her teeth and asked rhetorically, with an angry expression of being wronged.
Xiao Shaoxuan clapped his hands outward, "Come on, bring it!" ”
Concubine Li Xian's heart was pounding, and she turned her head to look.
I saw a little girl being brought up.
Concubine Li Xian was stunned and said, "Who is this?" I don't know that at all. ”
Xiao Shaoxuan sneered when he heard this, "Of course you don't know each other." ”
Concubine Li Xian immediately said, "What do you mean?" I don't know, and I want to find a slander to be a person? It's too much. ”
"Hehe, slandering you?" Xiao Shaoxuan sneered: "If you don't know this girl, it doesn't mean that it has nothing to do with you!" Because you sent someone to buy the girl in Zhenbei Wangfu, it is impossible for you to come forward in person, you are all a slave to do it, so naturally you don't know this girl. ”
Concubine Li Xian's gaze jumped slightly.
Xiao Shaoxuan asked, "How is it?" Do you remember? You arranged for someone to buy the girl from the Zhenbei Palace, and sneakily ran to the kitchen to inquire about the princess's diet, remember? ”
Concubine Li Xian immediately denied it, "Nonsense! I've never done anything like this at all! ”
Xiao Shaoxuan suddenly pulled out his sword, wiped it, and said leisurely: "I don't care if you admit it or not, as long as the evidence is conclusive, confirm that you did it." ”
"Ahh What are you doing? Concubine Li Xian was so frightened that she retreated again and again.
"Do the right thing for heaven!" Xiao Shaoxuan raised his hand with a sword and slashed it directly!
"Your Majesty, help......" Concubine Li Xian hugged her head and shouted, wanting to escape, but Bisheng tripped over her skirt again, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, unable to get up again.
Xiao Shaoxuan fell with a heavy sword!
"Ahh The sharp sword was pierced in front of Concubine Li Xian's face, and the distance was not more than a millimeter, and the sword qi made her face soak in cold pain, and she was immediately frightened and fainted.
Xiao Shaoxuan drew his sword and inserted it back into the scabbard.
The emperor instructed Liu Jin, "Ask a few people to send Concubine Li Xian back to the palace, and then call the imperial doctor to go over to check the pulse." ”
Liu Jin responded: "Yes." ”
immediately stepped forward with a few little eunuchs and carried Concubine Li Xian away.
Not long after, the imperial doctor diagnosed Concubine Li Xian as ill and needed to recuperate temporarily, so as not to recuperate.
The emperor made a decree.
Let Concubine Li Xian recuperate in the palace with peace of mind, and as for the affairs of the six palaces, they will all be handed over to Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing.
This set of gentle and drizzly means is finished.
Everyone knows in their hearts that Concubine Li Xian must have something to do with Hongyao's death.
But the emperor didn't know what the considerations were, so he didn't have a seizure on the surface, but on the grounds that Concubine Li Xian was ill, he deprived her of the power of the six palaces and put her under house arrest.
A big storm was smoothly resolved.
Lu Ruoqing was very satisfied with this, and said: "After all, it is the Chinese New Year right now, and it is inappropriate to make a bloody storm, so as not to let Concubine Li Xian's dog jump off the wall in a hurry, which will affect my peace of mind to raise the fetus." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan answered: "You raise the fetus first, as for Concubine Li Xian's matter, it's not too late to deal with it slowly after you give birth." ”
Lu Ruoqing took a few sips of sweet soup, and then put it down.
She said: "If Concubine Li Xian is interested, just stop it, and the emperor is estimated to give Li Ge a face, so that she can take the eleventh prince to retire in the future." After all, I'm safe and sound now, and as for whether the horizontal and vertical red medicine is dead or not, it has nothing to do with me, and there is no need to hold on to it. ”
In this case, Concubine Li Xian should be able to live for a few more years.
Lu Ruoqing said again: "However, it's hard to say that Concubine Li Xian refuses to stop." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan naturally understood what she meant.
Immediately, she said coldly, "Concubine Li Xian better hurry up and stop, if not, if she ......, send her on the road directly!" ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled and said: "That's it, I don't have to go into the palace after the horizontal and vertical back, stay in the palace, just pay a little attention." ”
However, Xiao Shaoxuan still has to enter the palace again.
From the first day to the fifteenth day of the new year, there were various banquets in the palace, and he naturally couldn't avoid them.
And the emperor knew that Lu Ruoqing was pregnant, and after the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, naturally he would not pay special attention to whether she entered the palace, and others did not dare to say anything.
Lu Ruoqing was relieved to raise a baby in the palace.
In the backyard, clusters of crimson red plums bloom very well, like patches of red clouds.
Lu Ruoqing sat in the pavilion, roasting the stove, drinking hot tea, and admiring the scene of winter snow and red plums in front of her, which was not a bad thing.
Ti Ying suddenly stepped on the snow and said in a low voice: "Princess, King Yu said that there is something wrong with his eyes, and he wants the princess to take a look, but people are already waiting at the back door." ”
"Huh?" Lu Ruoqing raised her eyebrows and said in surprise: "Aren't his eyes already good?" Something went wrong again. ”
Ti Ying asked, "Then now let King Yu in, or send him away?" Otherwise, he has been staying at the back door, and after a long time, he will definitely be seen by passers-by. ”
Lu Ruoqing hesitated and said, "You go and quietly bring him in." ”
No matter what, you can't let Xiao Hao's eyes go blind.
