Chapter 10 The palace concubine

Lan Ruoxuan's mind turned: "The queen mother has a lot of opportunities, and the concubine is a trivial matter......"

"A trifle? The prince's business, or is it a trivial matter? The Queen Mother's tone was even more unkind, "Kou Shu, the mourning family asked you, have you investigated this matter carefully?" Concubine Lan had a miscarriage for no reason, why? ”

On that day, Song Jinyan came to interrogate with vigour, but in the end, it was so inconclusive, perhaps by intuition, Song Jinyan did not pursue it further, and the matter was shelved for more than half a month.

What is the truth of the matter, as early as the moment when Qingyan turned against the water that night, Kou Shu had already guessed in his heart.

Most of the time Lan Ruoxuan pretended to be the fetus in her womb, and when the fetus was sick, she splashed dirty water on herself through Qingyan's mouth - the child was in her belly, and she could say it herself.

It's just that he didn't expect that as early as the day when he took the dragon and phoenix pot in Qingyan, Kou Shu noticed that something was wrong, and secretly went to the pharmacy to check the account books and medicines, and found that the medicinal materials of Artemisia on the snow were not counted with the account books.

Secretly smoked nine miles of incense in Lan Ruoxuan's room that night. Jiuli incense is a non-toxic and tasteless medicinal material, and it is very common in ordinary times, but as soon as it encounters a branch of artemisia on the snow, it becomes highly poisonous, making Lan Ruoxuan directly miscarry. And if this matter has nothing to do with Lan Ruoxuan, the child in the womb will not be affected.

Kou Shu smiled faintly: "Don't worry, after Concubine Lan's miscarriage, the concubine has already imprisoned Imperial Doctor Hu, the palace maid who delivered meals to Concubine Lan's palace that day, and the cook in the imperial dining room. In the past few days, I have been thinking about a good trial, if I can't get out of the trial, I will hand it over to the Shen Criminal Division, these 18 punishments, I believe there will always be someone to recruit. The death of the prince is such a major event, and I will definitely give my sister an explanation. "The attitude is firm, the tone is resolute, and it seems that he really must find out who is behind the scenes.

If you check it, you will inevitably find out that it is the effect of the interaction between the two drugs. Jiuli incense is common, but this snow artemisia is a rare medicinal material, even if it is not left in the palace, it is stolen, I am afraid that it will be found on Lan Ruoxuan's body in the end.

Lan Ruoxuan also reacted quickly, if she really got to the bottom of it, she might not be able to pick it up. Now that he has lost his beloved son, he can still win a little sympathy, if he is found to be making a fuss about his child, Song Jinyan will definitely dislike himself.

Thinking of this, her face changed slightly, there was a flash of panic in her eyes, she got up and gave a salute to the queen mother, her eyes seemed to be shrouded in a thin layer of mist: "Queen mother, the pain of losing a child has made the concubine unbearable, since the matter is irreparable, the concubine hopes not to do further investigation"

The Queen Mother couldn't help but show a suspicious look: "Concubine Lan, what do you mean by this, don't you want to know how your child died?" ”

Lan Ruoxuan shook her head, her voice a little choked: "The concubine has dreamed back at midnight these days, and it is all the crisp cry of that child. Night after night, the concubines were already tormented. If you have to recall the memories of the lost child again, the concubine ......"

When the Queen Mother heard this, her face showed a trace of unbearability, sighed, and waved her hand: "That's it, if you insist on it." The mourning family is also with you. Tilting his head, he said coldly to Kou Shu: "It's just that the queen has to be more vigilant, such a thing will never be allowed to happen again." ”

Hearing this, Lan Ruoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to relax a lot at once.

Concubine Qiong on the side keenly saw the subtle changes on Lan Ruoxuan's face, and an imperceptible smile rose at the corner of her mouth.

A spring banquet, most of the time revolved around Concubine Lan's children, and everyone showed great interest, seeing that the time was almost up, they all got up and left the palace.

"Concubine Lan Niangniang stay-" A voice sounded from behind Lan Ruoxuan.

Lan Ruoxuan turned her head and looked at the visitor with some curiosity, with a duck egg face, and under the thin willow eyebrows was a pair of blue eyes like water, but a Peugeot beauty: "Sister Qiong, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" ”

The person who came was Concubine Qiong, who had just finished the spring banquet.

Concubine Qiong smiled slightly and saluted: "Concubine Lan is polite, I plan to embroider two sachets these days, but it is not good to pick a single pattern, I heard that Concubine Lan has a lot of unique patterns, I don't know if I can disturb?" ”

The tricks are naturally well-prepared by the Internal Affairs Office, and besides, there are no tricks in Lan Ruoxuan's palace at all. Concubine Qiong made it clear that she wanted to talk to Lan Ruoxuan secretly.

Although Lan Ruoxuan was puzzled, she still smiled faintly: "This is natural, and it's not a big deal, my sister will go back to Yilan Hall with me." ”

Ylang Temple

After retiring from the girl, Lan Ruoxuan seemed to be a different person: "Say, what do you want to do?" ”

Concubine Qiong bent her knees slightly, "The concubine just feels very cordial to you and wants to be closer to you." ”

What does this mean? When did you cross paths with her? Lan Ruoxuan was a little puzzled, but she still played Tai Chi: "If Sister Qiong likes it, you can come to my Yilan Hall more on weekdays to sit." ”

Concubine Qiong was a little impatient: "Concubine Lan, you did the miscarriage that day, right?" ”

Lan Ruoxuan frowned: "Concubine Qiong, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"Concubine Lan Niangniang is angry" Concubine Qiong smiled, Lan Ruoxuan's expression just now had already proved her guess, "Concubine Lan Niangniang doesn't need to be nervous, I am not your enemy." ”

Lan Ruoxuan frowned: "What do you want?" ”

"What Niangniang wants, is Kou Shu's position, or Kou Shu's life?" Concubine Qiong actually called the queen by her name, and her tone was completely disdainful and indifferent.

"What if I wanted it?" Lan Ruoxuan asked rhetorically.

"If that's the case, then Niangniang and I are in the same camp."

"Oh?" Lan Ruoxuan raised her eyebrows, this concubine was a little interesting, "Why should I believe you?" Kou Shu, what's wrong with you, you hate her so much? ”

"Niangniang doesn't need to know about the grievances between me and Kou Shu," Concubine Qiong's tone was a little stiff, and then she said, "As for my sincerity, Niangniang will see it soon." ”

Turning her head, Concubine Qiong's eyes went straight to Lan Ruoxuan: "I hope that by then, Concubine Lan will still be able to help me." ”

Lan Ruoxuan was stunned, she didn't expect that there was still such a figure hidden in the palace, and nodded subconsciously.

In the Changle Palace

"Ahh

Since the death of my father, I always dream of what my father and mother looked like before their death, the family is harmonious and happy, but at the end of the dream, they all died tragically without exception. Leaving a stunned look on his face, he was at a loss.

Waking up from the dream again, Kou Shu looked out the window, it was not yet dawn, but she was already sleepy.

After thinking about it, Kou Shu still got up and put on a dress, planning to go outside for a walk.

An abrupt voice suddenly sounded, although it was very low, but it was very interesting in the silent night. Kou Shu couldn't help but be curious, and walked along the way.
