Chapter 105: The Queen's Temptation
There was a slaughter in the main hall, and the surrounding palace people were already kneeling on the ground and trembling with fright, once the words in Taohong's mouth were implemented, then those of them who heard the royal secrets had no hope of survival!
The maid Peach covered her stomach and collapsed on the ground, feeling the solemnity of the hall, her face was blank.
Shen Ninghua stood aside, looking at the Qin family's desperate expression, the light in her eyes was cold: she and the Zhou family had no intersection at all, and she didn't think about any development with the second prince, the Zhou family only relied on some false speculations to set up a poison plan to kill her life, then there was no need for her subordinates to show mercy, whether she could escape this catastrophe depended on the creation of the Zhou family.
Baili Qingcang's gloomy eyes swept over the Qin clan on the ground, and the anger in his voice was overwhelming: "Qin clan, do you still want to sue the county lord of Zhaohua?" ”
Qin Shi shook and couldn't help but tremble his teeth: "No, the emperor atoned for his sins, the slave and maid were deceived, and they mistakenly regarded the lord of Zhaohua County as a murderer, and the slave and maid are guilty, please ask the emperor to be merciful." At this time, she can't pull Shen Ninghua down anymore, in case she can't drag people but is thrown into the well, then the Zhou family will really be finished.
"Since you don't sue, let's settle the matter of the Zhou family, come here, Chen Yun, the head of Xuantai Hospital, will bring up Imperial Doctor Li who diagnoses Zhou's pulse, in addition, the second child, Zhou's two children, you let people pour drugs and bring them to the palace, I will definitely find out about this matter."
Baili Qingcang's tone was firm, which made Baili Jinchuan's heart unconsciously raised.
The atmosphere of the Chengqian Hall is solemn, and the golden and brilliant hall is bright but makes people feel cold and refreshing.
At this time, outside the main hall, a loud announcement instantly pierced the heavy atmosphere: "Your Majesty, the queen mother and His Royal Highness the crown prince have come over and are waiting for the emperor to summon them outside the palace." ”
Shen Ninghua stood aside, lowered his head and lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelashes trembled slightly when he heard the words, and then calmed down.
Queen Zhao Huiying was dressed in a bright yellow queen's palace dress, her beautiful face was like pearls and jade, and she was glowing with a cold light: "The concubines participate in the emperor." ”
Baili Qingcang's expression did not change, and he said in a deep voice: "You came at the right time, the matter involves the prince's back house, and it should be handled by you, the queen mother, the Zhou family is involved in confusing the royal bloodline, and now it is being investigated, you take a good look at what the princess you selected looks like!" ”
A trace of surprise flashed on Zhao Huiying's face, and when she heard the waiter on the side whisper what had happened, her eyes when she looked at the Qin clan changed completely: "Zhou's ...... What a Zhou family, what a good daughter! ”
Zhao Huiying's face was full of anger, but there were not many waves in her heart, as a queen, she naturally couldn't be too mean to other princes, the reason why she chose Zhou to be Baili Jinchuan as his wife was because she investigated that Zhou was born with palace cold, and it was not easy to get pregnant, but she didn't expect that later Zhou gave birth to a daughter and a son, she thought that her investigation was not detailed enough, and she didn't think much about it, who would have thought that there was such an amazing conspiracy here!
Soon, all the people involved were brought in.
Imperial Physician Li was stupid as soon as he heard that the emperor had announced, and after being brought into the main hall, the whole person was stunned, and he was swept away by Baili Qingcang's eyes, and he knelt on the ground with a bang, and explained everything clearly.
"Your Majesty, the slave is guilty, the second princess promised the slave a lot of benefits, and at the same time used the slave's family to threaten each other, and in desperation, the slave helped the second princess to hide from the world, and left the children of the two maids for the heirs of the second prince, please forgive the emperor!"
After confirming the facts with his own ears, Baili Qingcang's voice became colder and colder: "Do you know that confusing the royal bloodline is a big crime for the Nine Clans!" ”
"The slave deserves death, but the slave has no choice, it is all to blame for the slave's greed for money, helping the second princess to sterilize the other side rooms and concubines of His Royal Highness the second prince, the second princess took this matter as a handle, threatening the slave to shake out these things if she didn't do it, and the slave had to help her commit a heinous crime, please spare the emperor."
Baili Jinchuan gritted his teeth tightly, and the anger in his eyes was about to burst out: "You say, the reason why no one in my house has given birth to an heir for a long time is because the Zhou family instructed you to sterilize other people?" ”
Imperial Physician Li trembled with fright from his vicious eyes, and nodded tremblingly: "Yes, it was ordered by the second princess." ”
Baili Jinchuan couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and stepped forward and kicked Imperial Doctor Li to the ground: "Good you bold minion!" "That slut of the Zhou family! What is there about her to be sorry for her, let her treat herself like this, does she want to watch herself cut off her children and grandchildren?
Imperial Physician Li was kicked in the chest, spit out a mouthful of blood directly, and fainted.
Chen Yun stepped forward to check his condition: "Back to the emperor, Imperial Doctor Li was stunned. ”
"Drag him down and put him in a prison to keep him under strict guard." Baili Qingcang's face was as black as the night sky, and he glanced at Imperial Doctor Li coldly and ordered, "In addition, you go and check that those two children are the heirs of the second prince." ”
Chen Yun nodded, took out a golden needle from the medicine box, punctured the fingers of the two children respectively, and took the blood of Baili Jinchuan, and carefully examined it.
Shen Ninghua looked at his movements, his eyes moved slightly, these two people are the biological bloodline of Baili Jinchuan, just because of the Zhou family, I think they will not be liked by Baili Jinchuan in the future.
After a while, Chen Yun reported: "Back to the emperor, these two children are the bloodline of the second prince. ”
Baili Jinchuan's exposed fingers slowly relaxed, and a big stone in his heart fell to the ground, if Chen Yun said that these two children were wild seeds just now, he was afraid that he would not be able to control the anger in his heart and fall them directly to death on the main hall.
Shen Ninghua was not much surprised, the Zhou family was not bold enough to directly replace the royal blood with other people's heirs at first, she secretly imprisoned the maids who had been favored by the second prince, and let them give birth to heirs after making sure that they were pregnant, and then used the fake pregnancy to replace it with her own child, and later, Baili Jinchuan's feelings for her became more and more shallow, which made her panic and try to use pregnancy to attract his attention.
It's a pity that the end is extremely sad!
Such a ridiculous farce made Baili Qingcang irritable, and he didn't have a good face for Baili Jinchuan, he thought that this son was up to the task, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even look at his own backyard, it seems that he still needs to hone well.
Baili Qingcang directly issued an order to remove the title of the second prince, as for the Qin family and others, they were all sent to the prison, and Taohong and her lover were also beaten to death with sticks, and their bodies were thrown into mass graves.
Walking out of the palace again, the sun was hanging in the sky, and the warm wind and sunshine were also very bright, but Shen Ninghua looked up at the bright sky, but felt a burst of coldness for no reason.
"Lord Zhaohua, the queen is invited."
The voice of the palace maid came from behind him, and Shen Ninghua suddenly came back to his senses: "The queen mother? "She had just reached the gate of the palace when the queen called her......
"Yes, the queen invites you to sit in Ningkun Palace."
Shen Ninghua's heart moved, the Zhou family had just had an accident, and the queen was looking for her at this time, was it intentional or unintentional?
"Let's go."
Ningkun Palace is the most magnificent and gorgeous palace in the harem, with carved beams and painted walls everywhere, gorgeous and exquisite.
The palace maid entered the room to report, and Shen Ninghua stood in the corridor and looked at the orchids raised not far away.
"Lord Zhaohua, Niangniang, please come in."
Shen Ninghua nodded and walked into the main hall.
Xu was because she didn't have time, Zhao Huiying didn't change her clothes, she was still dressed as a queen: "Ning Hua, I suddenly remembered that I had never talked to you alone, so I asked people to invite you over while you were in the palace, and I didn't delay your time." ”
Shen Ninghua bowed and saluted: "I've seen the queen's mother, the mother's mother." I didn't have anything to do, so I couldn't afford to delay. ”
"Flat, your etiquette is thorough, more elegant and standardized than several princesses who have learned court etiquette since childhood, I think you have worked hard in private." Zhao Huiying touched the injured royal blue armor, and her slender fingers were glowing with jade, with a unique beauty.
"Ning Hua didn't dare to compare with a few princesses." Although she is called Baili Qingcang and her father, in the final analysis, she is just a righteous daughter, and she can naturally be deprived of rewards, and there is no comparison with a serious royal princess.
Zhao Huiying smiled slightly, and the corners of her red lips curled up in a good-looking arc: "The emperor asked you to call him father, so even if you are not a serious royal princess, your status is more noble than that of the princess, you don't have to be arrogant." Just like today, can't the emperor see that there is a secret in this matter? It's just because I love you, so I won't pursue it. ”
Zhao said that his gaze fell on Shen Ninghua, seemingly careless, but he collected all her reactions in his eyes, not missing a single bit.
Shen Ninghua showed a look of surprise on her face, and looked at Zhao Huiying suspiciously: "Hasn't this matter been investigated clearly, is there a hidden story behind it?" ”
Zhao Huiying's eyebrows moved, Shen Ninghua only had surprise on her face, and she couldn't see the slightest abnormality, did she really not know or was she hiding it too well?
"Ning Hua, are you still pretending to be crazy and stupid with this palace? I have already asked people to secretly investigate, the reason why Zhou died violently, the sedge under the pillow is only one aspect, the most important thing is the furnishings in her room and the flowers and plants raised in the yard, using these to harm people, the means are really shocking! ”
Shen Ninghua had shock and puzzlement on her face: "Niangniang, what are you talking about?" Could it be that the second princess didn't die because of the sedge, but someone persecuted her to death? Then why don't you tell the emperor, if the emperor knows, he will definitely let people investigate clearly. ”
Zhao Huiying glanced at her deeply: "I'm just guessing, I still need to investigate again, when I investigate clearly, I will naturally report it to the emperor, it's not too early, you can retreat." ”
"Yes," Shen Ninghua opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't speak, and slowly got up and retreated.
Walking to the main hall, Shen Ninghua kept her head down, and got into the carriage at the gate of the palace, and the emotions of incomprehension, doubt, uneasiness, and shock on her face were subdued and restored to her original calm expression.
The queen had just tested her, had she noticed something?
In Ningkun Palace, the queen looked at the shaking curtain coldly, and smiled coldly: "It's really like a hedgehog, so people have nowhere to eat, but after all, it's still a little tender." ”
