Tao Mingran didn't speak, it was because she had been reading and reasoning since she was a child, that she was even more entangled and painful under the imperial power.

Li Shanggong continued to cry, "The youngest palace maid rescued by the slave maid a few months ago is only fourteen years old, and she has been destroyed when she is still half a child, please have mercy." ”

They dare to find a game, and they bet on the character of the queen's mother.

The two queens were all from big families, and their conduct has always been dignified, and they never treated the palace people harshly.

Tao Mingran tapped the table with his fingers, "This matter is not easy, Your Majesty sent Gonggong Lin down to investigate, and he knows everything that the palace knows." ”

The faces of several people changed, and the situation became complicated.

They glanced at each other, and handed over a list to the queen with the determination to die, "The sisters on the list are either old or ruined, we are willing to give the emperor an explanation with death, but the rest of the little palace maids are still young, please let them live." ”

When they did such a thing, they already foresaw the end, and those involved did it with the determination to die.

It's just that in the end, I can't give up.

"They're still so young, we've lived enough." Li Shanggong smiled bitterly.

In fact, she is not old, she is already in her thirties, and she climbed to the position of Shang Palace, if she can endure that breath, she will be able to spend her days comfortably in the palace.

It's just that sometimes, people are the breath of life.

The stakes are very high, Tao Mingran can't make up her mind easily, she lowered her eyes and said, "Think about it." ”

She stayed up all night and thought about a lot.

The next day, Lin Zheng was summoned.

Lin Zheng swept in the dust, "I've seen the queen." ”

"Get up." The queen said politely, "Come and serve tea to Gonggong Lin." ”

Lin Zheng sat on the bench with a rather indifferent expression.

The queen spoke first, "The root cause of this incident is the contradiction caused by the domineering form of the eunuch and the Dongchang and the perennial abuse of the palace maid. ”

Tao Mingran threw the pot out first, "Gonggong Lin is now in charge of the East Field, you can't escape the blame if you really want to investigate it!" ”

Lin Zheng's eyes were indifferent, but he said, "Please also ask the mother for advice." ”

With his current power in the harem, it is not a secret that Li Shanggong brought people into the middle palace last night.

The queen's words just now proved his guess, and the queen didn't want to investigate this matter to the end.

Of course, he is willing to sell the face of the queen, the situation is unstable, and it makes little sense for him to fight for power in the palace.

He just wants to settle down now.

One day it really fell, and with the friendship with Shen Xingwan many years ago, he was still sure to save his life.

That's why he didn't bother to work hard for the emperor, Lin Zheng thought very thoroughly.

Tao Mingran glanced at him, "Gonggong Lin is a smart person. ”

Lin Zheng took a sip of hot tea and confided a few words of truth, "These are the results of the laissez-faire of the former Dongchang Eunuch, and it was not my intention to bully the palace maid like this." ”

Although he Lin Zheng is not a good person, he really can't do such an inhuman thing.

The queen looked at him twice and said directly, "In this case, let's take a step back and understand this matter as soon as possible." ”

Lin Zheng stood up and bent down to salute, "Let the mother decide." ”

Soon the emperor received the results of a thorough investigation, and it was the collusion of eight palace maids to cooperate in the case, and there was basically no problem from reason to logic.

The busy emperor only said two words, "Death!" ”

Eight palace maids were killed by poisonous doves and did not suffer much sin.

The queen took the opportunity to say everything she could to rectify the palace affairs. Let a group of palace maids go out, lest they make waves in the harem.

The emperor listened casually and said impatiently, "You can do it, you don't have to ask me." ”

He has been busy with the treatment of diseases and the pressure of the Xiling army recently, how can he have the energy to take care of these small things.

Tao Mingran quickly ordered three hundred palace maids to go out, and the palace maids they desperately protected in Li Shanggong were among them.

As soon as this matter was over, Tao Mingran, who had witnessed the dirty harem, was a little disheartened and closed his door to recuperate.

Su Jingyi was uncared about, and the courtyard was cold.

Only the maid ring she brought into the palace from the house did her best to take care of her.

Bi Tao brought a bowl of medicine, "Zhaoyi should drink medicine." ”

Su Jingyi opened her mouth, and Bi Tao fed her the medicine spoonful by spoonful.

Her face was pale, and the smell of blood on her bed was unpleasant.

She has been able to live until now, all because Bi Tao took out a thousand-year-old ginseng with excellent medicinal properties at a critical moment, boiled soup for her and hung her life.

That was the most precious medicinal material in Mrs. Hou's hand, knowing the depth of the harem, she specially brought it into the palace for Su Jingyi.

Bi Tao's loyalty is also forced, she is a house slave, and the family is in the hands of Mrs. Hou, Su Jingyi is good at her family, and anyone can betray, but she will not.

Su Jingyi finished drinking the medicine and leaned against the head of the bed with difficulty, her lower body was still bleeding intermittently, "What did the imperial doctor say?" ”

Bi Tao said in a low voice, "Zhaoyi takes medicine well, and there is still a possibility of recovery." ”

In fact, it's just hanging on to a breath and living for a long time, and it's impossible to get back to normal.

It would be nice to be able to stop the bleeding and take a breath. It is estimated that I will be lying in bed like this in the future.

"I want to write a letter to my mother..."Su Jingyi said weakly, and now she finally sees that it is Mrs. Hou who loves her the most in this world.

Bi Tao sighed, "The slave maid went to ask the steward of the queen's palace." ”

Bi Tao left, and only two little palace maids came to wait for her.

Liuzi didn't come back until dark, and when she entered the room, she looked at Su Jingyi from a distance, her expression was cold, "I almost gave birth to the little prince, it seems that Zhaoyi didn't have that life!" ”

After a sneer, Su Jingyi was angry with her chest pain, "What's the point of saying this now?" ”

Xi Lan took the initiative to build the line, or Xi Lan didn't pull her into the water, otherwise she would definitely die.

Liuzi sneered and left.

In the evening, the grandmother beside the queen came, looking at her with cold eyes, "Did Su Zhaoyi try her best to marry His Majesty at that time?" ”

Su Jingyi didn't understand why she said this, and smiled reluctantly, "It's my blessing to be able to serve Your Majesty." ”

Mama stretched out her hand and pulled the quilt for her, "Didn't Zhaoyi forget what she did to us back then?" ”

Su Jingyi's eyes widened in horror and began to be afraid.

Mama chuckled, "It seems that Zhaoyi remembered, did you think about today when you were in the position of the sixth princess and wanted to put our mother to death?" ”

Su Jingyi's teeth were chattering, it turned out that the queen had always known.

At that time, she did design Tao Ming's hand but was dodged, and the Tao family did not move later, and she gradually forgot about it.

Mama looked at her, "Sometimes it's more painful to live than to die, so Zhaoyi Niang should live like this." ”

"I heard that you have liked Miss Shen since you were a child." Mama smiled slightly, "Niangniang asked me to bring you a word, open your eyes and watch carefully, how I lost." ”

Su Jingyi was swelling with qi and blood, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Mama turned around and left, and at the same time conveyed the queen's will to cut Su Zhaoyi's use.

After this day, the palace where Su Jingyi lived was like a cold palace, and everything was the worst for food and clothing, but there was constant daily medicine.

In the most difficult and coldest days of her life in the past, there was only a handful of bones left, and she did not spare the brilliance of the day.
