"The concubines know that the queen has never treated her concubines badly." Concubine Hui said.

"But you dare to use such dirty means on this palace, intending to harm this palace and the children of this palace, you are so bold!" The queen said coldly.

Concubine Hui looked up at the queen fiercely, "Queen Mother, how can the concubine harm the Queen Mother, please let the Queen Mother know it." ”

"Concubine Hui, before this, the palace already knew your careful thoughts, and the Queen Mother gave Guanyin to Ananda that day, and it was you who guided you in the ears of the Queen Mother. This palace has never said that first, the body is very tired and lazy, and secondly, this palace believes that you have been in the harem for many years and know how to stop in moderation. "Queen's Road.

Concubine Hui's face turned pale and trembled.

"Who knew you would dare to do such a vicious thing." The queen snapped.

"Queen Mother, concubine I don't know what you're talking about?" Concubine Hui said.

"You still don't admit it, you called you over, are you not sure that you will be questioned like this?"

"Does the queen have any proof?" Concubine Hui said.

"The Buddhist tribute of Wutai Mountain is what you sent to the Queen Mother's palace, and only you have the opportunity to smear purple pine needles." Queen's Road.

"The concubine doesn't know what a purple pine needle is?" Concubine Hui said.

"You know best what purple pine needles are, the emperor asked the harem to use Bilu incense, and the harem distributed a lot of Bilu incense." The queen immediately said, "Concubine Liu was the most favored at that time, and her body was scented with dew incense, showing off her power in front of you, do you remember what you said at that time?" ”

"......" Concubine Hui didn't dare to answer, she didn't expect that after so long, the queen would still remember.

"At that time, in the Imperial Garden, you told Concubine Liu that the stronger the fragrance of dew on your body, it can only mean that you are sadder. At that time, many palace concubines were there, did you say? ”

"The concubine has said it."

Later, Concubine Wan became pregnant, and the emperor was so angry that he almost wanted to abort the fetus in Concubine Wan's wife. At that time, the harem knew the effect of Pilu incense, and Concubine Liu had a quarrel with you at that time, and the emperor reprimanded you for this. This incident, many people remember. ”

"You knew what it was from the beginning! When you were still a side concubine in the palace, you liked to mix fragrances. After giving birth to Yuanqi, you devoted yourself to Yuanqi, and gradually stopped blending fragrance. So as soon as you smell the dew fragrance, you will know that there is a purple pine needle in it. ”

The queen's memory was so good that she thought no one would remember that she could make perfumes.

"So, the purple pine needles on the white jade Guanyin were made by you." Queen's Road.

"The queen can say whatever she wants, you don't have any evidence!" Concubine Hui said.

"The purple pine needles found from Concubine Lan's palace are evidence." Queen Dao, "Refining purple pine needles of that purity is not an easy task, and it is not something that ordinary people can do. ”

Dongxue said slowly, "Queen Mother, to refine purple pine needles of such purity, it is not something that can be made overnight, it will take at least a few years." ”

"I guess after you did this, just in case you will destroy all the evidence, there must be no purple pine needles in your Morning Glow, and there are no tools and materials for perfumery." Queen's Road.

"Queen Mother, but the most special thing about purple pine needles is that as long as they stick to one place, the fragrance in them can last for a long time." Dongxue said slowly, "The slave maid thinks, now go to the Chenhui Palace to check carefully, there must be a place where there is still the fragrance of purple pine needles." ”

"......" Concubine Hui looked at the queen in horror, and at this moment she knew that the queen was prepared.

"The Queen Mother's private treasury is held by Mama Gui, who is the old lady next to the Queen Mother and is extremely loyal to the Queen Mother. Anyone who enters the Queen Mother's treasury, she will be staring at it. So the white jade Guanyin, when you sent it to the queen mother's library, you had already smeared the purple pine needles. ”

The queen looked at her and said, "Concubine Hui, do you know why I came to judge you!" ”

"If the emperor comes to try you, your life is not guaranteed, and it will affect Zhang Hongwen's career, and Yuan Qi will be finished." The queen said again.

Concubine Hui's body began to tremble slightly.

"The reason why this palace came to judge you in person is because you and I have been in prison for more than 20 years, and this palace has watched Yuan Qi grow up. He is gentle and kind by nature, and has no heart for contention. It was you, step by step, who were forcing him to go that way. It is not easy for this palace to pity him, and he doesn't want to force him to a dead end. "Queen's Road

"All the good things are always said by the queen mother." Concubine Hui sneered.

"This palace came to judge you today, because I have known you and me for more than 20 years, and I have some affection, and this palace doesn't want to leave no room for it. You should know the meaning of Hongu. "What the queen said means a lot.

Concubine Hui had tears in her eyes, "What about the queen?" ”

"From today onwards, you will be imprisoned in the Morning Glory Palace, and you will never see the second prince and the second emperor grandson again." Queen's Road.

"Queen, Qi'er is my son, Yi'er is my grandson, you let us not see each other." Concubine Hui said angrily.

"If you see your son again, you will only kill him." Queen's Road.

"Also, is there anyone else to help you?"

Concubine Hui immediately thought of Yuan Sui, she naturally couldn't say it, she immediately said, "I also hope that someone can help me, I am smart, but I am still no match for you, the queen." ”

The queen hadn't dealt with such a thing for a long time, and she was a little tired for a while.

"I will tell the emperor that from today onwards, you will be demoted from a concubine to a concubine, and all the palace people in your palace will be cut off, and the palace will let the chief of internal affairs arrange people in your palace again, of course, the number of people waiting will be reduced by half."

Concubine Hui looked at the queen with wide eyes, she knew that once her disposition was announced, everyone would know what was going on?

At that time, what do others think of Qi'er, what does the emperor think of Qi'er, Qi'er has finally made a contribution, and now what future can he have.

"The queen mother is doing this to force the concubine to a dead end." Concubine Hui said.

"If this palace forces you to a dead end, the one in front of you now is the emperor." The queen looked at her lightly, "You know the emperor's temperament, what do you think the emperor will do?" ”

"......" Concubine Hui's body is soft, but she doesn't know what to do?

"You can step down." Queen's Road.

Concubine Hui slowly got up and stood still, staring at the queen, and smiled!

"You're just doing this to clear the way for your son."

"You can think so, it's just that you murdered this palace first, and it is impossible for this palace not to punish you." Queen's Road.

"You always have everything, high above, and the truth is always on your side. No matter how well I do, no matter how careful I am, the emperor and the queen mother will always only see you. ”

"I've lived in your shadow all my life, and I've ended up in such a situation." Concubine Hui laughed, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Concubine Hui, no one in the harem is innocent, and no one is not pitiful. But just because you're pitiful doesn't mean you can murder others. You have your life and your future, and so do others. "Queen's Road.
