The emperor hugged Xie Ning and whispered to her: "It's not easy to investigate this matter, the people who came into contact with the wine vessel last night in the dining room haven't found anything, Chen Jieyu is not sober yet, and the people around her can't say why." V. VIII. VI.XI. As for how the medicine in the house was mixed with poisonous pills, one of the several palace people who could enter the inner room found an opportunity to find a short-sighted ......"

Shainin was not at all surprised by this result.

Chen Jieyu was used again, and this black cauldron was tightly buckled on her body.

"Before the banquet started yesterday, Chen Jieyu had spoken to several people. Concubine Jin, Concubine Shen, Li Zhaorong, Cao Shunrong...... And the people who serve the banquet when she toasts you......"

Xie Ning's heart sank, so the implication was too wide.

"I will find out after all, and I will definitely give you an explanation."

Xie Ning nodded: "The concubine knows." It's Chen Jieyu, how is she now? ”

"The medicine is still on it, and Li ordered that the medicine has damaged her body, and even if it gets better, her body will definitely not be like ordinary people in the future."

Thinking that she was drinking the poisonous wine that would have been drunk by herself, Xie Ning really couldn't bear Chen Jieyu in her heart.

The emperor saw her thoughts: "I also know that she can't do this, but no one forced her to come over to toast, and no one made her so arrogant and rude." Think about it, if she politely poured the wine yesterday and sincerely apologized to you, would you have drunk this wine? ”

Shainin didn't say anything.

The emperor sighed: "I know your character." If she really looks repentant, says a few nice words, and makes the scene look better, you will drink it. If you do drink that poisoned wine, what will you do with me? ”

Xie Ning heard something else in the emperor's words.

She raised her head to look at the emperor's expression, and asked softly, "You...... Is this being afraid? ”

"Yes, I'm scared too." The emperor hugged her tighter: "I'm really afraid that you will fall into other people's calculations like this." Even if I took revenge on you by arresting all the people who did it afterwards and killing them one by one, what use was that? The dead will never come alive again, and I will never see you again, hear your voice again, and stay with you again as I am now......"

Xie Ning's eyes were hot, and his nose was sour: "The concubine is also scared when she thinks about it, afraid that if she really drinks it, she will never be able to accompany the emperor and Ying Hong in the future." But the emperor, so many things happened last year, Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian, Princess Mingshou...... So many people have already died. Now it is the end of the year, and if the emperor kills because of this at this time, the concubines are afraid that outsiders will criticize the emperor. ”

Shainin was afraid of this matter, and she gritted her teeth with hatred for the person who wanted to kill her. But the emperor did this for her, and Xie Ning was afraid that it would damage his reputation. Others don't care who is right and wrong in this matter, they will only see the emperor make a big fight on the first day of the Lunar New Year for a concubine, making it impossible to live this year. Xie Ning is not afraid that he will be said to be a traitorous concubine who charms the emperor, but he does not want others to say that the emperor is lustful and cruel.

"Don't worry, I'm measured."

Shainin looked at him and finally nodded.

During the night she had nightmares.

Xie Ning remembered the details of the dream very clearly.

She seemed to be back at the palace banquet, and there was a mess everywhere, and there were malicious eyes everywhere. A glass of wine was placed in front of her, and many voices were urging her. All the time saying, drink fast, drink fast, drink it.

She knew in her heart that she couldn't drink it, but her body took the wine in her hand as if she didn't obey it, and slowly raised it closer to her lips, closer and closer, closer and closer.

Shainin's heart was about to jump out of her throat, and she shouted in her heart, don't drink, don't drink. But it didn't work.

The moment the wine was ingested, Xie Ning suddenly woke up.

His body was sore and weak, his hands were pressed against his chest, his fingers were tightly twisted together, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat.

She looked at the top of the tent and gasped slowly.

The emperor also woke up.

"What's wrong?"

Shainin whispered, "I had a nightmare. ”

Qinghe took Qingzhu to the outside room at night, and the two of them were lying in their clothes, and they hurriedly came in to serve when they heard the movement.

Qinghe took a new set of underwear and replaced the sweaty one on Xie Ning's body. He poured warm water to serve the emperor and drank half a glass of water with her.

"If the master can't sleep, the slave will beat your legs?"

Xie Ning shook his head: "No need, you guys go down." ”

Qinghe didn't say anything more, and led Qingzhu to retreat again.

woke up once, and Shainin fell asleep peacefully in the middle of the night. One of her hands and the emperor's hand were clasped together, and listening to the steady breathing of another person on the pillow, her mood slowly calmed down.

The second day of the first day was much easier than the previous day, Xie Ning stayed in Yong'an Palace and didn't go anywhere, and Yong'an Palace was rarely quiet on this day, and no one came to disturb him.

The eldest prince and Xie Ning were talking together.

"I can understand what my father meant. My father asked me to pay more attention to the people around me, because no matter what happens, people need to do it. Some people have talent and character but have flaws, and some people are blameless in their conduct, but they are vegetarian and do not seek merit but no fault as officials. Everyone has what they want, and it can be used by their father. ”

A child as big as the eldest prince outside the palace would not understand such a deep truth. What the emperor taught his son is not the truth in the book of saints, this is power and politics. Shainin understood a lot of truths, but she wouldn't do that.

Shainin was surprised and relieved: "You are very sensible and smart. Xie Ning said: "The emperor's expectations for you are also very high. But you also have to know that you have to have a degree in everything you do, and you can't do it too much. Look at how tired you were yesterday, Li Zhiling usually said that you should maintain more and spend less effort, and if you are fine, you can walk in the garden more and relax, don't always be bored in the house. ”

The eldest prince smiled and said: "The name of the second brother has already been thought of by the emperor, and you know it, right?" ”

Princess Yuyao asked on the side, "What name did you choose?" ”

The eldest prince took her hand and wrote in the palm of her hand. Princess Yuyao probably felt a little itchy, and the eldest prince smiled while writing about her.

"This word is pronounced Hong, my brother's name is Ying Hong, is it good?"

Princess Yuyao read it twice in her mouth, stood up and walked to the couch to tease the second prince.

"Ying Hong, Ying Hong."

The second prince doesn't know the name or the name at this time, but he recognizes people and voices. As soon as Princess Yuyao called out to him, he turned his head to look. Not only has he now grown several teeth, but he can also climb on the kang very neatly. During the Chinese New Year, he was wrapped in a big red brocade, crawling like a big red ball rolling. Princess Yuyao especially likes to tease him, and often leads him in front of him with things like wave drums and small colored balls, and the second prince will chase and crawl forward, and the sisters and brothers can play like this for an hour and will not get tired.

Seeing the second prince coming towards her, Princess Yuyao slapped happily and called his name again.

The eldest prince watched with a smile, and whenever the second prince shouted at him, he would praise and encourage, and the second prince was satisfied with this.

In the morning, Liu Shanggong reminded him that there might be something in the palace. The eldest prince just hummed at that time, and Liu Shanggong didn't dare to say more.

She didn't know if the eldest prince didn't understand her reminder, but thinking that the eldest prince had always been steady, she also felt that she had nothing to worry about.

But Liu Shanggong couldn't have imagined it anyway, the eldest prince had actually guessed it.

No one told him, but the eldest prince could sense the tension in the atmosphere. He knew that something must have happened in the palace, but since his father and Xie Niangniang didn't talk about it, the eldest prince wouldn't ask more. He knew that he was weak and weak, even if he knew that something was going on, in addition to worrying, he couldn't help, and it was impossible to share the worries of his father and Xie Niangniang.

The eldest prince really wants to grow up quickly.

It can be an early adult, and an early crown. I can read more books and understand the truth of this world.

can become a useful person to his father and Xie Niangniang.

But......

Time is probably the fairest, whether it is the prince or the pawn of the peddler, no one has a moment more than the other. Time does not slow down because of human will.

But at least at this moment, he can still be by Xie Niangniang's side and accompany his younger brothers and sisters.

But in the future, he will definitely be able to do more, and he will not be as powerless as he is now.

Qinghe stood by and watched, with a smile on his lips.

She went to the night last night, and it is said that Qingmei should be on duty in the first half of today, leading Qingyan and the two to serve closely.

But Qinghe can't rest assured, Qingmei is not very stable after all, and Qingyan has few things.

Qinghe still has something to worry about.

She glanced at Qingzhu standing aside without a trace.

Qingzhu is good. Those who can serve in front of their masters are naturally of good character. Qingzhu is delicate, and she usually speaks in a low voice. Qinghe used to think that she was a little shy, but now she feels that she can't figure out what this girl thinks.

Serving the master closely, I see these ordinary people every day the wealth that ordinary people may not imagine in their lifetime.

They are all young girls, and it is not impossible for them to have some ideas in their hearts.

However, people must recognize their duty, and some things are just delusions, and they will cause trouble.
