When she shouted, everyone felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly quickened their pace, and in a blink of an eye, all the people crowded to the door of Lan Xiangju and looked inside.

I saw Liu Ningyan standing at the table, looking in with the lid of the incense burner in one hand, and when she heard the footsteps, she immediately raised her head, but saw so many people suddenly appear at the door, she was also frightened, her face suddenly became pale, and the lid of the incense burner in her hand fell to the ground with a clatter, making a harsh sound.

As soon as Chang Qing saw her, she immediately frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Liu Ning's legs were weak, and she knelt down with a plop: "The emperor...... The Queen's ......"

"What are you doing here?"

She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't say anything, and Yuwen next to her stepped forward when she saw this: "The slave maid just saw that Lady Liu was putting something in the incense burner of the talented person, and she didn't know it for a while, so she called out." ”

"Put something? What's in it? ”

Chang Qing frowned slightly, and was about to walk over, when the palace maid beside her sniffed into the air, and suddenly said, "Niangniang, this--it seems to be the smell of musk." ”

"Musk?"

"That's—that's going to make a pregnant woman miscarry!"

When Chang Qing heard this, his face suddenly showed anger, he looked down at Liu Ningyan, who was trembling, and said, "You actually dare to put musk in Xu Cairen's incense burner, what crime should you be guilty of!" ”

"No, the queen mother, the slave maid doesn't." Liu Ningyan's face turned pale in a hurry, and she hurriedly knelt down and walked over, kowtowing again and again: "The slave and maid are not trying to harm Xu Cairen, the slave and maid-"

Before she finished her words, Yuwen suddenly said loudly: "Oh, I remember, haven't you been saying that your stomach is uncomfortable and often throbs these days?" Is it because of the smell of this musk? ”

"What?"

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately remembered what Xu Cairen had said to me just now when he was by the lake, Xu Cairen's unwell appearance, and they all understood what they had said, and looked at Liu Ningyan, who was kneeling on the ground with a pale face, Chang Qing's face sank, and he said first: "There is musk in the house, let's go out first, Xu Cairen can't smell this thing anymore." ”

As soon as she said this, everyone quit the house, Xu Cairen watched Liu Ningyan tremble and walked out, pointed at her angrily and said, "Lady Liu, have I offended you, why do you want to harm me like this, harm the child in my womb?!" ”

When Liu Ningyan heard this, she hurriedly knelt down again: "I don't, talented, I'm not trying to harm your child!" ”

"You still dare to deny it, Yuwen just saw you put something in the incense burner. These days, when the emperor comes up, he asks you to pass the word, if it weren't for you, who else could enter my house and do such a hurtful thing! Xu Cai's lips trembled, and he turned to kneel down towards the queen and said, "Queen Mother, you want to be the master of the concubine!" ”

Chang Qing's beautiful face suddenly covered with frost, and she looked at Liu Ningyan coldly.

Liu Ningyan was frightened and said loudly: "I didn't, I didn't!" ”

Maybe because she was too scared, her voice was out of tune, it sounded a little hoarse, Chang Qing frowned, didn't say anything, first raised her hand towards Xu Cairen, as soon as I saw this scene, I immediately stepped forward to help Xu Cairen, and said softly: "Don't hurt the fetus, if someone dares to harm you like this, the queen will definitely make the decision for you." ”

As soon as Liu Ningyan saw me, her eyes immediately turned red, she knelt and took two steps forward, grabbed the corner of the queen's clothes, and hissed: "Queen Mother, the slave and maid were wronged, and the slave and maid were by-people-"

Her voice suddenly became hoarse, and she couldn't say anything.

Liu Ningyan was taken aback, coughed desperately twice and wanted to say something, but her voice was even more hoarse, her eyes widened suddenly, and she suddenly understood something, and looked up to see me standing aside with Xu Cairen, and suddenly rushed towards me like crazy.

"Be careful, she's going to hurt talent!"

I shouted, immediately spread my arms, Xu Cairen was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind me, Liu Ningyan grabbed me like a crazy lion, fought hard, I gritted my teeth and endured, and said loudly: "Cairen quickly dodge, don't hurt you!" ”

Everyone suddenly panicked, some dodged, some pulled Xu Cairen to protect her, Chang Qing stood there and didn't move, and said angrily: "What are you still doing, don't you hurry up and pull her away!" ”

"Yes!"

Kou'er and several other palace maids and aunts hurriedly rushed up, grabbed Liu Ningyan with all hands and feet and pressed her to the ground, she struggled desperately and fluttered, her mouth let out a hoarse roar, Yuwen took the opportunity to step forward and gag her mouth with a rag.

In this way, Liu Ningyan was pressed to the ground by the wolf, panting and staring at us.

Just when everyone was in a panic, Shen Rou's voice came from behind him: "What's wrong?" ”

Turning her head to see, she was walking over slowly, and as soon as she saw Chang Qing, she immediately knelt down and saluted, and the palace maid on the side told her that Lady Liu had designed to poison the fetus in Xu Cairen's womb, and she was stolen.

When Shen Rou heard this, those autumn-like eyes glanced at me and Xu Cairen, the corners of her mouth provoked a smile, and then slowly walked in front of Liu Ningyan, pointed at her and said: "I have long watched her look like a fox to seduce the emperor, but I didn't expect to hit the idea here, this palace is still in Chonghua Palace, how can you be allowed to do such evil!" ”

After speaking, she turned to the queen and said: "Queen Mother, this matter is in Chonghua Palace, please let the concubines investigate this matter thoroughly, and you must give Xu Cairen justice!" ”

As soon as I heard that she was going to investigate the matter, my heart suddenly swelled with unease.

The queen has always been friendly with her, but she is afraid that she will really hand over this case to her for investigation.

Who knows, Chang Qing glanced at her coldly and said, "I'll leave it to you to check?" The emperor asked Xu Cairen to move to Chonghua Palace, in order for you to take care of it, someone made a poisonous scheme to harm Xu Cairen, you actually know now, so careless, how can this palace believe you again! ”

Chang Qing has always been gentle and kind, but at this time, Shen Rou couldn't react for a while, and looked at her with wide eyes, and the concubines around her were already frightened, and immediately knelt on the ground: "The queen is angry." ”

Shen Rou also knelt down slowly and said, "Concubine, I know that I am wrong." ”

"Huh, do you know what to do? Then you will leave the palace in the Chonghua Hall and think about it! After Chang Qing's hair fell to her, she turned to look at Liu Ningyan, who was pressed to the ground with her sideburns scattered and tears streaming down her face, and said, "Escort it to the palace and seal up all the things that Lan Xiangju has touched." This matter, this palace will personally investigate! ”

"Yes!"

Everyone hurriedly agreed, Chang Qing turned around and walked out, and the remaining two strong grandmothers grabbed the condensation cigarette and walked out, her hands were clasped behind her back and she was escorted out, but she kept looking back, a pair of red eyes looked at me through the messy hair, and the hatred that burst out of it seemed to break me into pieces.

I stood there silently, my whole body trembling, as if my soul was trembling.

Met her eyes, and I silently mouthed her a word-

"We're clear."

I treat you as a good sister, give you advice, even if you can't turn over in the cold palace, you have never been tired of you, and you, actually betrayed me like this, hurt me, calculated me, my Yue Qingying is harmless, but there are also clear grievances.

Now, we're both clear!

The maid was imprisoned, Lan Xiangju was sealed, and the concubine thought about it behind closed doors, these three things caused an uproar in the harem, especially under the queen's first anger, everyone was in danger, and the atmosphere in the harem suddenly became tense.

It seems that he also sensed such an atmosphere, and several autumn rains came down one after another, and the autumn rain was cool for a while, which made the palace fall into a silence.

In everyone's opinion, the only one who is relaxed is probably Xu Cairen and me by her side.

After this incident, the queen let Xu Cairen move out of the Chonghua Palace, and returned to the Fangcao Hall where she lived before, although the Bihua Hall was a little colder, but it was convenient to raise the fetus, and Xu Cairen said to the queen, saying that it was rare for me to be loyal to the Lord and fall in love with me, so he asked the queen for me.

Compared with Shen Rou, who is unfathomable, following Xu Cairen's side, I am indeed relieved.

As soon as I entered Fangcaotang, I knelt down and thanked her: "Thank you for your promotion." ”

"Say something about promotion." Xu Cairen hurriedly helped me up and said, "If you hadn't stopped me that day, I would have really been poisoned by that slut." ”

I smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

Yuwen on the side came over and said: "That woman is really vicious, I heard that before the emperor ascended the throne, he used to be the wife of Shangyang Palace, and later was beaten into the cold palace, it seems that she has always held a grudge, so she drugged Niangniang." ”

Xu Cairen nodded, held my hand again, and said, "Fortunately, you set up this plan and caught her, otherwise the child in my belly would not be safe." ”

"Don't say that." I helped her to sit down on the couch and said softly: "The talented man said that keeping the child is saving the talent, and the slave should do her best." ”

Xu Cairen smiled, suddenly thought of something again, and said: "The queen mother personally investigated this matter, and I don't know how it went." ”

“……”

She thought for a moment and said to me: "Qingying, you go to Jingren Palace to help me greet Niangniang, if you can find out, also inquire by the way, I want to know what happened to that vicious woman." ”

That's what I care about.

In the past two days, I have not been so calm and satisfied as I seem on the surface, although Liu Ningyan has become dumb, although she can't write, but the matter will not end for a day, and I can't rest assured for a day.

So, I nodded in agreement, and then turned around and walked out of Fangcaotang and walked towards Jingren Palace.

When I arrived at Jingren Palace, I saw them coming out, because of Xu Cairen's affairs, they also knew me, so they smiled from afar, and said, "Are you here to say goodbye?" The emperor is also here, let's wait for a while before going in. Let's go prepare refreshments for the emperor. ”

Pei Yuanhao is also there?

My heart sank suddenly, and I still said with a smile on my face: "Hard work sisters." ”

I was a little hesitant to avoid it first, but at this moment, I heard Pei Yuanhao's deep voice from the window: "Then why did she suddenly become dumb?" ”

I held my breath and listened carefully.

I only heard Chang Qing's gentle voice say: "Because there are other spices in the incense burner, the concubine asked the imperial doctor to check it, and the spices were added with scopole, belladonna, and some other medicinal herbs, plus musk, and she lost her voice." ”

"Where did you get those spices?"
