Chapter 240: Falling into the water and framing
It's Nan Rongran and Zhang Yi'er, these two people are not in the banquet hall outside, why did they sneak here?
After coming from the southern tour, Jiang Wanxiu has been staring at the General's Mansion, but Zhang Yier is very peaceful, staying in the palace almost every day, and has no unnecessary contact with Nan Rongran.
Later, she went to Yinyun Mountain, and they followed as soon as they came, so they didn't stare at Zhang Yi'er, so Jiang Wanxiu didn't know what the situation was with these two people now.
Zhang Yier tugged on Nan Rongran's sleeve, obviously crying, and her eyes were red.
"Brother Rong Ran, what now? I was so scared that my father knew about it and kept asking me who this child was. ”
Nan Rongran's face was gloomy, as if he had a fire in his chest, but he had nowhere to vent.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
Nan Rongran gritted his teeth, obviously very irritable about Zhang Yier's affairs.
Zhang Yier cried, "I don't know, how do I know I'm going to get pregnant?" Brother Rong Ran, what should I do? ”
Jiang Wanxiu realized, it turned out that Zhang Yier was pregnant, which was a good bargaining chip.
Maybe it was Zhang Yier's peace that made Nan Rongran forget what happened to them before, Nan Rongran didn't have a concubine, so she naturally forgot about the child avoidance medicine, so now Zhang Yier suddenly told him that she was pregnant with his child, which made Nan Rongran a little unsure of what to do.
If General Zhang didn't know, it was okay, now that he knew about it, Nan Rongran couldn't deal with this kid at will.
Nan Rongran took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "You go back first, don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter." ”
Zhang Yier seemed to have gotten the answer she wanted, and her crying gradually stopped.
She still grabbed Nan Rongran's sleeve, and said pitifully: "Brother Rongran, will it cause you trouble?" Otherwise, this kid ...... I don't want it. ”
She looked reluctant, but she was thinking about Nan Rongran, which really made Nan Rongran's heart soften.
It's just that he is soft-hearted, not because of this child, but because of Zhang Biao.
Zhang Biao knew it, and he couldn't do it easily.
Nan Rongran held her shoulders and patiently coaxed: "Yi'er, you don't have to think too much, take care of yourself, and leave the rest to me." ”
"Three Princes!" There was an urgent call from the palace people outside, and Nan Rongran and Zhang Yi'er quickly separated.
Zhang Yier was very understanding and walked in the other direction.
When Zhang Yi'er left, Nan Rongran asked out loud, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's Concubine Sheng, Concubine Wan pushed Concubine Sheng into the water, and there was already a mess outside."
Jiang Wanxiu's eyebrows jumped, and she couldn't take care of Nan Rongran anymore, and hurriedly returned to the banquet hall.
It is indeed already a mess, and the wind tower is built on the water, and now a large group of people are gathered in front of the guardrail, watching several palace people jump into the water and fish up Rusheng.
In this cold winter, the lake water is cold, and the concubine Sheng is wearing heavy clothes, so she really suffers a lot in the lake.
When she was fished up, everyone hula-la-la-la went up in a circle, asking questions with concern.
It's a pity that Rusheng has fainted, and the palace people hurriedly carried her to the house, and the imperial doctor just happened to hurry over.
No one paid attention to Concubine Wan, who was sitting on the side, she looked at the icy lake under the guardrail, and she didn't know whether it was cold or afraid, and her whole body trembled slightly.
Jiang Wanxiu walked up to Concubine Wan and helped her up. "Is the concubine okay?"
"I ......" Concubine Wan looked up at Jiang Wanxiu, grabbed her hand in horror, and explained eagerly: "I didn't push her down, it's really not my ......"
Jiang Wanxiu patted her hand soothingly, if it was another concubine, she might believe it, but it was Rusheng, Jiang Wanxiu didn't believe it, Concubine Wan could get a favor in Rusheng's hand.
Concubine Yue snorted coldly: "Sister Wan, I know you are jealous of Concubine Sheng, but you can't push people into the water, this matter has been notified to the emperor, you better think about it, how to explain it to the emperor." ”
The happiest thing in this is none other than Concubine Yue.
Rusheng has been quite favored recently, Concubine Wan pushed her into the water, she will definitely be punished, if Rusheng has something good, it will be even more amazing, without her hands, the two strong rivals in the harem will disappear.
Concubine Yue did not hide the gloating smile on the corner of her mouth, and also stepped forward to care about Rusheng.
"Mother!"
Nan Liye hurried over after receiving the news, and when he saw Concubine Wan, who was so frightened that her face turned pale, her brows furrowed.
"What the hell is going on?" Concubine Wan was really frightened, and her hands were trembling.
"It's over, if the emperor also thinks that I pushed Concubine Sheng down, what should I do?"
Nan Liye looked at Concubine Wan who was distracted, and then looked at Jiang Wanxiu.
Jiang Wanxiu sighed: "This may not be the case, let's go see Concubine Sheng first." ”
"The emperor has arrived!" With the sharp voice of the eunuch, the old emperor hurriedly stepped into the Zefeng Tower and asked, "Where is the concubine?" ”
Someone said: "Back to the emperor, Concubine Sheng is in the apse, and the imperial doctor is treating her." ”
The old emperor didn't even look at the others, and immediately went to the apse. "Imperial Doctor Li, what's wrong with Concubine Sheng?"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Sheng has been pregnant for more than a month, and now her pulse is very unstable, and she has fallen into the water again, and there is a possibility of miscarriage at any time."
When Jiang Wanxiu walked in with Concubine Wan, she happened to hear the words of the imperial doctor, and Concubine Wan rolled her eyes at that time, and she almost fainted.
"What do you say? I order you to cure Concubine Sheng immediately! The child can't be saved, so you all come to see you! ”
The old emperor smashed the cup, and the people next to him were so frightened that they all stood aside.
The old emperor walked out with an angry face, his face was gloomy, and he said angrily: "What the hell is going on? How did Concubine Sheng fall into the water? ”
Concubine Yue couldn't wait to say: "Your Majesty, the concubines don't know much about this, and the concubines only heard that someone had fallen into the water, and when they went out, they saw Sister Wan standing by the guardrail, and Concubine Sheng was already struggling in the water." ”
Concubine Yue's words directly pointed the finger at Concubine Wan.
The old emperor shot a sharp gaze, and Concubine Wan trembled, her face turned pale, and she knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, you listen to the concubine's explanation, the concubine didn't push the concubine into the water, it was her own ......"
Concubine Yue took over the conversation and said, "Could it be that Sister Wan wants to say that Concubine Sheng fell by herself?" How high is that guardrail? How could Concubine Sheng fall so carelessly? ”
Nan Liye knelt beside Concubine Wan, and said in a quiet voice: "Father, there must be a misunderstanding in this matter, Concubine Sheng and Concubine Mu have no grievances, why should Concubine Mother harm her?" And at his own birthday banquet, he also asked his father to investigate clearly. ”
Nan Liye knew that Rusheng was Nan Rongran's person, and he could also see that today's play was obviously aimed at Concubine Wan.
Rusheng has been favored recently, and now she is still pregnant with a dragon heir, if something happens to Rusheng, or the child in her womb is gone, this account must be counted on the head of Wan Guifei, can the old emperor still let Wan Guifei go?
If Concubine Wan falls, he, the fourth prince, will also become an unfavored prince, how can he compete with Nan Rongran for the throne at that time?
So Wan Guifei, there must be no trouble.
The old emperor was obviously not angry, picked up the cup on the table, and seemed to want to smash it towards Concubine Wan, but in the end, considering that she was a woman, he turned around and smashed it directly on Nan Liye's forehead, and blood was dripping in an instant. There was a gasping sound all around, and Nan Liye still knelt straight, letting the blood flow.
Concubine Wan was also obviously frightened, and hurriedly pulled out a veil and covered Nan Liye's forehead.
"Away from the night, how are you leaving the night? Doctor! Come and stop the bleeding for the four princes! ”
"No one is allowed to move!" Seeing that a imperial doctor was coming, the old emperor shouted.
Nan Liye looked up at him, his face was cold, not sad or happy.
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Wan shed tears and cried: "Why are you angry at me, why do you want to fight Lan'er?" It had nothing to do with him at all. ”
The old emperor snorted coldly: "You mean, the incident of Concubine Sheng's falling into the water has something to do with you?" ”
Concubine Wan gritted her teeth, "I said no, did the emperor believe it?" ”
The old emperor stared at Concubine Wan and didn't speak, but he was thinking about the truth of her words.
It's been a couple for decades, and the old emperor also knows Wan Guifei's temperament, although she is not good, but she has always been one and the same, and her temperament is pungent.
Seeing that she denied it so resolutely, the old emperor was also a little uncertain.
Seeing this, Concubine Yue hurriedly fanned the flames on the side and said: "Your Majesty, don't blame Sister Wan, maybe Sister Wan just heard that Concubine Sheng was pregnant, and she was a little angry for a while, after all, Sister Wan hurt her body when she gave birth to the fourth prince, and she can no longer be pregnant, please let the emperor spare Sister Wan this time for the sake of Sister Wan who has been with you for many years." ”
"Moon heart! What nonsense are you talking about? ”
Concubine Wan glared at her angrily, and even the name of Concubine Yue was shouted.
The old emperor's heart, which had just softened, hardened again, and he snorted coldly: "What kind of enmity does Concubine Sheng have with you?" Did you know that you almost killed her? Wan Guifei, you really disappointed me! ”
Concubine Wan shook her head with tears, "Your Majesty, the concubine didn't know that Concubine Sheng was pregnant, it was Concubine Sheng who asked Concubine Sheng to go to the lake and said that she had something to say to the concubine, but Concubine Sheng jumped down by herself, and it was really not the concubine who pushed her down." ”
"Your Majesty!"
The maidservant girl who had been silent and crying next to her suddenly knelt down, she was Concubine Sheng's personal maid.
"Concubine Sheng knew that she was pregnant yesterday, and she was very happy to tell the emperor, not to mention that Concubine Sheng was afraid of water, so how could she jump into the lake by herself? I beg the emperor to seek justice for my mother. ”
Concubine Sheng doesn't know water, and the old emperor also knows it, and when he thinks about Rusheng's pale and pitiful appearance, he is even more angry in his heart.
"Someone! Arrest Concubine Wan and put her in the cold palace! ”
Concubine Wan was shocked and looked at the old emperor in disbelief.
She has been with the old emperor since she was fifteen years old, and for thirty years, he is now going to send her to the cold palace for a little concubine and for a trumped-up frame?
"Father!" Nan Liye stopped in front of Concubine Wan and eagerly explained: "The son guarantees his life, this matter is definitely not done by the mother concubine, beg the father to take back his life!" ”
Concubine Yue sneered: "Fourth prince, I advise you not to get involved in these things, I know that you love your mother very much, but your mother concubine killed the harem concubines and the imperial heirs this time, but in full view of everyone, if the emperor does not punish him, how can he give an explanation to Concubine Sheng?" ”
The old emperor was about to speak, but the imperial doctor inside ran out in a panic and said, "The emperor is not good, the child of Concubine Sheng...... Can't keep it! ”
