"Bring it."

Xu Lingyi's face turned cold.

Red Bean immediately took the comb.

"What are you going to do with my comb?" Xu Lingyi asked in a cold voice.

At this time, Xiao Weaving's eyes glanced at the dressing table on the side, and immediately said, "Lingyi, there is another one here!" ”

The comb on the dressing table was taken, and Xu Lingyi compared it in his hand, and his brows suddenly frowned.

"It's exactly the same."

"Ling Yi misunderstood the slave maid, this comb is the slave's thing, and the slave doesn't know that it is the same as Ling Yi's comb."

Qinglian hurriedly explained.

But Hongdou immediately exposed her lie, "This comb is made of rosewood, where can you get such a valuable thing, it's just full of nonsense, don't explain it quickly, what do you want to do when you change Lingyi's things!" ”

"I, I, am a slave and maid who are confused for a while, and want to steal Ling Yi's things and go out to exchange money, the slave and maid are almost old enough to leave the palace, and the slave and maid want to save some dowry for themselves, Ling Yi forgives the sin, Ling Yi forgives the sin, the slave and the maid are blinded by lard for a while, and the slave knows that it is wrong!"

The lie was exposed, and Qinglian immediately cried and begged for mercy.

But Xu Lingyi naturally didn't believe what she said, and immediately glanced at Xiao Zhi and Hongdou, and the two of them understood, so they closed the door, pressed Qinglian down, and told her to kneel.

Xu Lingyi took a handful of copper scissors, walked to Qinglian's side, and suddenly reached out and pinched her face, forcing her to raise her head.

"If you are given ten more dares, you will not dare to do such a thing, and besides, the fake you brought is almost the same as mine one, where can you get it? Say, "Why did you steal my comb, who instructed me, and I will give you a chance, and say well, I will let you live, and if you refuse to say, I will cut your face with this scissor, and cut off your tongue!" ”

When she was so intimidated, Qinglian's face suddenly turned pale with fright, and her body trembled.

"Ling Yi spares her life, the slave and maid don't dare, this is really done by the slave and maid alone, no one instructs."

"I won't say it, okay." Xu Lingyi's eyes were cold, "Then start with the left side of your face." ”

As he spoke, the scissors in Xu Lingyi's hand poked at Qinglian's face, and with a little force, the red blood seeped out, and the pain made people's bodies tighten, and they immediately panicked.

"I said, I said, it's Yuzhang Palace, it's Concubine Zhao!"

Hearing this, Xu Lingyi suddenly stopped moving, and Qinglian also took this opportunity to retreat.

Xu Lingyi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately became furious.

"She's the one who wants to hurt me! Tell me what's wrong with this comb! ”

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

Just as Xu Lingyi was angry, there was a sound outside the door.

Hongdou and Xiao Zhi suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort Xu Lingyi first, preparing to take over.

And at this time, the queen also ordered someone to push open the door and come in.

When I saw the situation in the house, I was immediately stunned.

Then his face sank, "What is this trouble?" ”

"Queen Mother, you have to be the master of the concubine, this palace maid was instructed by Concubine Zhao to secretly change the comb of the concubine, I don't know what malicious thoughts she has!" Xu Lingyi immediately complained.

At this moment, Qinglian, who was shrinking in the corner, heard this, her body shook suddenly, and then she gritted her teeth fiercely, and while everyone's attention was on the queen and Xu Lingyi, she stood up suddenly, ran a few steps and hit her head against the wall.

Then his body went limp, and he fell to the ground with a head of dirty blood.

The sudden change startled everyone, and after Yan Li, the great eunuch beside the queen, was the first to go over to check the situation, he said with an ugly face.

"Mother, people are dead."

"Dead?"

Xu Lingyi was stunned and subconsciously took two steps back.

After all, she was still afraid of this.

The queen frowned, "Drag the person down first and deal with it well, don't leak a word to the outside world!" ”

"Yes." Yan Li nodded, and was about to do it immediately.

Xu Lingyi immediately said, "But she's a human witness, this."

"What can she prove? Everyone is dead, and they are still dead in your palace. The queen's face was gloomy, "You haven't told the palace yet, what happened, what did Concubine Zhao buy her to do to you?" ”

"Concubine, concubine doesn't know, she hasn't asked clearly, she only said that Concubine Zhao ordered her to change the concubine's comb." Xu Lingyi's face was also ugly.

The queen took the two combs and glanced at them, and then commanded in a deep voice.

"Go and ask the imperial doctor to come over and tell Xu Lingyi to show the wounds on his face."

Tian Mo responded and immediately went.

During this waiting, Xu Lingyi learned that the queen specially brought ointment to see her at night after she learned about the trouble she had been made by Concubine Wan during the day, and she never thought about it.

After a while, the Imperial Doctor arrived.

After examining the two combs, it was pointed out that the comb commonly used by Xu Lingyi had traces of being soaked in the potion, which was contraceptive and used every day, which always had an effect.

As soon as she said this, the queen also analyzed that the palace maid should not steal the comb, but swapped things out to soak in potions, and then changed them back.

Xu Lingyi was so angry that she was about to rush to Yuzhang Palace to confront her, but the queen stopped her.

"You go like this, there is no evidence, the person is dead, just a physical evidence, it is still your thing, it has nothing to do with Concubine Zhao, what can you do with her?"

"Besides, now that the war in Northern Xinjiang is deadlocked, the leader of the troops is Concubine Zhao's brother-in-law, and she has always been favored by the emperor, and even the palace has to give her face, do you think the emperor will look at you?" The queen added.

Xu Lingyi was not angry, "But she hurt me like this, I can't bear it!" ”

"If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan." The queen said in a deep voice, "Some dumb losses are to be eaten, there is not so much truth and fairness and justice in the palace, if you are not convinced, unwilling, and hate her, then you can use some effort to earn the favor of the saint, in order to match her!" ”

Hearing this, Xu Lingyi stopped talking, as if she had listened to it, and the queen said again.

"At the moment, I still want the doctor to show you if there is any serious problem with your body."

As he spoke, he asked the imperial doctor to come forward and check Xu Lingyi's pulse.

In the end, the doctor also told the two that this drug was for external use, and as long as the contact was stopped, it would be fine after half a year, and they could still have children.

Hearing this, Xu Lingyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Things have developed like this, and it is impossible to hold them accountable, so they can only hide everything, saying that Xianfu Palace is sick and a palace maid is sick and throws people out.

Xu Lingyi found out the culprit, so she naturally stopped sending things outside the palace and asked her mother to find someone to check it.

After the queen left, Xiao Ori asked.

"Why didn't Ling Yi tell the queen that today you suspect that Concubine Wan instigated?"

"Can't tell." Xu Lingyi said, "I suspected the queen at first, but I didn't expect it to be the black hand of Concubine Zhao in the end, if the queen mother knew that I was suspicious of her, she would be unhappy, this matter will pass like this, don't talk too much, I now know who wants to harm me, and naturally there is a way to take revenge!" ”

Red Bean and Xiao Weaving glanced at each other and nodded in response.

And Fang Yu's side was already about to rest, and Yuan He reported through the curtain that a palace maid had died in Xianfu Palace and was sent out overnight.

"The queen went to Xianfu Palace at night, and a palace maid died, could it be something?" Fang Yu frowned.

Yuan He listened, and immediately said, "The slave also thinks that there may be a problem, and has ordered someone to follow him secretly." ”
