Concubine Li's face turned pale suddenly, the panic in her eyes flashed, and she scolded angrily: "You sinner want the princess to save your life, you dare to say such vicious words, come on, drag it down and kill it directly!" ”

"The Crown Princess...... The slave and maid are telling the truth...... Hmm......" Lan Er shouted in a panic, but was covered by the palace maid.

"Wait!" Bai Yuzhu stopped her voice, she couldn't see her emotions and said, "Zi'er went to bring someone to the palace." ”

"Niangniang, this sin is completely slandering the concubine, this is a big crime of killing the head, and I don't dare to poison the emperor if I give the concubine a hundred lives." Concubine Li looked at Bai Yuzhu and hurriedly said.

Bai Yuzhu didn't even look at Concubine Li, looked at Lan Er, who was weakened by Zi'er, and said in a fierce tone: "Lan Er, what you just said is the truth?" You should know that with that rebellious sentence just now, you and your master Li Shuyi will both die! ”

"What the slave said is true, and there is absolutely no lie." The embarrassed Lan'er responded hurriedly.

"Smack!" Concubine Li raised her hand and slapped Lan Er, and the complete force made Lan Er fall to the ground unsteadily, her apricot eyes glared: "You cheap, dare to slander this palace, what is your intention!" ”

After that, she looked at Bai Yuzhu and said: "Crown princess Niangniang, this criminal maid made a mistake and was punished by the concubine, and then when she saw Niangniang coming, she wanted to live before she said rebellious words, I hope Niangniang will not listen to it." ”

Bai Yuzhu looked at Lan Er, who was lying on the ground and couldn't even get up, her cold eyes flashed a coldness, and she said in a deep voice: "The affairs of the harem have to be decided by the queen mother, and it is inconvenient for the palace to interfere." It's just that when it comes to His Majesty's life, this palace has to take care of it, come on, take Lan'er, the palace maid, to Fengzao Palace......"

After speaking, she looked at Concubine Li, whose face was pale, and said, "Concubine Li, I'm bothering you to go to Fengzao Palace with this palace." ”

"Niangniang, the concubine can go to Fengzao Palace with Niangniang. But Niangniang, the concubine is His Majesty's concubine, and she is a concubine, and the concubine is three grades higher than Li Shuyi, and murdering the emperor is a capital crime to destroy the nine clans. When Concubine Li heard Bai Yuzhu's words, her face instantly turned with a hint of anger, as if she had really been slandered, "Niangniang, this is a matter of the harem, the crown princess belongs to the East Palace, imagine that Niangniang knows the pros and cons." ”

Bai Yuzhu looked sideways at Concubine Li in front of her, dressed in light green palace satin, with cloud temples and gold beads, and her face was beautiful, neither humble nor arrogant, looking at herself.

The concubine position is indeed three grades higher than Li Shuyi's, and there are few who can ascend to the concubine harem, and Concubine Li can be a concubine is naturally a good means, or a good background, but she doesn't know where this concubine comes from. What's more, he is the master of the East Palace, not the master of the harem, and the hostess of the East Palace interferes in the affairs of the harem, so where do you put Queen Zhen? Concubine Li's words were a warning to herself.

However, she Bai Yuzhu has never been a master of following the rules, and she is not afraid of offending people.

"I'd rather believe it than believe it, Concubine Li, I'm offended." She said indifferently.

"A concubine will not suffer such humiliation in vain." Concubine Li straightened her chest and looked directly at Bai Yuzhu, and the cold stars in her eyes refused to go to Fengzao Palace.

"Then if you don't go, you will be even more guilty of murdering Your Majesty." Bai Yuzhu said lightly.

"Humph!" Concubine Li snorted coldly and flicked her sleeves, she looked at the beautiful Bai Yuzhu, she said: "Isn't it more solid for this trumped-up charge if the concubine goes, for the sake of this sinful maid's words, let the concubine be wronged, the concubine will definitely not be humiliated, you want to go, the mother will go to Fengzao Palace by herself, the concubine will retire first, if you want to find the concubine, then let the queen send someone in person." ”

With that, she threw up her sleeves and turned away, not taking Bai Yuzhu in her eyes at all.

"How can this Concubine Li's reason be!" Zi'er stared at Concubine Li's distant back and said angrily.

"Go and help Lan'er up, and take her to the imperial pharmacy together." Bai Yuzhu said casually, and went to the jade chariot first. She knew very well in her heart that Concubine Li's respect for her crown princess was out of palace etiquette, but how to say that she was also a woman who served the emperor, she went to embarrass the concubine of the East Palace, and it was inevitable that she would be laughed at when she said it, and if she really wanted to ask Concubine Li, she had to have the final say in Queen Zhen, she was not qualified, so she was not annoyed by Concubine Li's rudeness.

Poisoning the emperor is a big deal, but at the moment she is also in a hurry, and it should be too late to go to Fengzao Palace after dispensing the medicine.

The person on duty at the imperial pharmacy saw the princess arrive, everyone's eyes were full of amazement, and then respectfully saluted aside, the fragrance of the medicine in the nose made people smell bitter, Bai Yuzhu wrote a prescription and handed it to the pharmacist on duty and said: "Grasp these medicines for the palace, hurry up, and by the way, find someone to take a look at a palace maid named Lan'er outside." ”

The pharmacist hurriedly took the prescription, he first glanced at the medicine sheet on the paper, a trace of consternation crossed his eyes, he looked at the crown princess in front of him and said, "Niangniang...... There are a few of these medicines that are very poisonous......"

Bai Yuzhu's eyes glanced over, and the sharpness in her eyes made the pharmacist hurriedly hang his head and retreat silently.

The Imperial Pharmacy is in charge of the dispensing of medicine in the entire palace, and if she wants any medicine here, she has to catch it herself, and if she can't find the medicine, she always has to ask the medicine doctor to find the medicine, so she can only do this.

The medicine was grasped, she personally prepared the medicine to make pills, burned the medicine before leaving the imperial pharmacy, at this time Lan Er had already washed off the blood stains on her face, and although her hair was messy, her face looked better.

Bai Yuzhu just left, the pharmacist saw her leave, he hurriedly picked up the pen and ink placed on the table on the side, and wrote hard, and soon the white paper was written on the medicine list she had just burned, he beckoned, and the little eunuch who was waiting on the side stepped forward, he handed the prescription to the little eunuch and said in a low voice: "Take it to the master, let the master check it." ”

"Yes, the minion will go." The little eunuch took the prescription and left through another door.

"Lan'er, this palace is giving you a chance now, is what you said before about poisoning the emperor true, or is it a temporary lie out of wanting this palace to save your life!" Outside the door hall, she stood in front of Lan Er and asked in a condescending voice.

Lan Er knelt on the ground, she raised her head and said firmly: "The slave and maid are really not lying, the slave and maid really heard what Concubine Li said with her own ears." The slave maid originally wanted to repay the silver borrowed by Xiao Lizi from the imperial pharmacy, but when she accidentally heard it, Concubine Li wanted to kill and kill her......"

Bai Yuzhu looked at Lan Er in front of her for a moment, she said in a deep voice: "Lan Er, you have to know that these words are widely implicated, this palace will take you to see the queen mother, if what you said is not true, when the time comes, this palace will not be able to get out of it, so this palace is asking you, is what you said true?" ”

"What the slave said is true, and there is no lie." Lan Er slammed her head to the ground and said firmly with a dull sound.

"Swing and go to Fengzao Palace." The white jade bead went straight to the jade chariot.

The palace lights were bright, and Queen Zhen in the Fengzao Palace had not yet gone to bed, and when she heard what the person in charge of next to her said, she was surprised: "Let the princess come in." ”

Bai Yuzhu took Lan Er directly into the Fengzao Palace, and she saluted respectfully: "The son sees the queen mother, and the queen mother is auspicious." ”

"No courtesy. It's so late, why did you come to the main palace here, if you look for His Royal Highness the Prince, he just returned to the East Palace. Empress Zhen indifferently took in the scene in front of her and said warmly.

"Erchen is not looking for His Highness this time." Bai Yuzhu got up, she raised her head and looked directly at Queen Zhen, she said respectfully: "When Erchen went to the imperial pharmacy before, she met this palace maid, and it happened that Concubine Li was implementing palace rules to this palace maid, and Erchen knew that the minister had no right to ask about the affairs of the harem, but this palace maid said the words of the Jiu clan to let Erchen stay." ”

"Oh?" Empress Zhen's eyes looked at the palace maid who was kneeling on the ground, and she looked at Bai Yuzhu again and said, "What words can make you so nervous." ”

Bai Yuzhu turned to look at Lan Er, who was kneeling behind her, and she said in a deep voice: "Lan Er, tell the queen mother exactly what you said to the palace just now." ”

At this time, the steward of Fengzao Palace entered the hall, and she said respectfully: "Queen Mother, Concubine De said outside the door that there is something important to see, and it is urgent to wait." ”

"Concubine De?" Empress Zhen's eyes were deep, and she said, "Urgently? Let her in. ”

Lan Er, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled all over her when she heard the word Concubine De, and her face was as miserable as white paper.

Bai Yuzhu took in Lan'er's subtle movements, and she said sharply: "Lan'er, don't be so retribution." ”

"Slave maid...... The slave maid ...... "Lan'er was already hesitant when she spoke.

Empress Zhen looked at Lan Er and frowned slightly.

Enchanting figure, dressed in purple palace clothes, the gems on Lingyun's bun are dazzling, full of nobility, her face is beautiful, and her eyes are deep and bottomless, Concubine De stepped forward and bowed to Queen Zhen: "The concubine sees the queen's mother, and the mother is Jin'an." ”

"Excuse me." Empress Zhen still had a gentle voice, as if she would never be angry.

After Concubine De got up, she looked at Bai Yuzhu, who was still standing on the side, and saluted respectfully with only a slight surprise in her eyes: "The concubine sees the crown princess Niangniang, the concubine is a thousand years old." ”

"Excuse me." Bai Yuzhu said lightly.

After Concubine De got up, she said, "Did the concubine disturb the queen and the crown princess to talk about things?" ”

Empress Zhen said softly: "It's not a big deal, but you have something that can make you so serious." ”

Concubine De's eyes took a deep look at Bai Yuzhu, and then glanced at the palace maid Lan'er who was kneeling on the ground, she looked at Queen Zhen and said: "The concubine came this time to hope that the queen mother will uphold justice for Concubine Li's sister, and she must not let Concubine Li's sister suffer the injustice of destroying the nine clans." ”

Bai Yuzhu sighed in her heart, and secretly said that it was not good, it seemed that this Concubine De came for Concubine Li......

"Justice? Annihilation of the Nine Clans? Empress Zhen's gentle face was finally replaced by shock, and she shouted in a deep voice: "Concubine De, what's going on with this? What happened to Concubine Li? ”

Concubine De sighed lightly, she looked at the majestic Empress Zhen and said: "Queen Mother, just now the concubine went to Concubine Li's palace to enjoy the moon together, then I wanted to enter the palace and saw Concubine Li's hanging beam about to commit suicide, and I only knew that it was ...... It's ......"

"What's it!" Empress Zhen's eyes were sharp.

Concubine De seemed to be oppressed by the queen, and she hurriedly said: "Concubine Li said that the crown princess slandered her and made her suffer injustice......

Bai Yuzhu was suddenly shocked and looked at Concubine De......
