Chapter 186: Attracting Snakes
In the Zhaoqing Palace, the ripples in the vibrant pool are clear, and the other palaces are already so cold that the palace people are shivering, but here it is still like spring.
Concubine Chen lazily lay on the chaise longue and took the white fungus soup handed over by the palace maid Qinghuan, "Princess Yinghua lost her temper again?" ”
She smiled softly, and her mood seemed very happy.
"Yes, in the morning the slave and maid were passing by and heard a cry from inside."
Princess Yinghua's beloved pet died, and she was severely reprimanded by Emperor Tanglin, and was grounded with her mother Xue Guifei, so there was nowhere to be angry, and the unlucky ones were the people in their palace.
"Sometimes, the life of a cat is more valuable than a person."
Concubine Chen's eyes were cold, but she just punished them for not being allowed to leave the palace, maybe it would be a blessing in disguise?
After all, the Queen Mother's palace has been even more difficult these days, if Xue Guifei and Yinghua were not restrained and accidentally jumped under the eyes of the Queen Mother, they would have suffered more.
"The concubine and the princess are too underestimated." Qing Huan replied calmly, and Concubine Chen nodded in agreement.
She was indeed impressed by Xia Yunxian, this was the first time that Xue Guifei and Yinghua had suffered such a big loss.
With this exquisite heart, it is no wonder that people like Bai Yujing can die to the ground.
"Qing Huan, you have been with this palace for a few years." Concubine Chen suddenly thought of something, and looked at the palace maid in front of her who had been serving her wholeheartedly.
She is beautiful and lovely, and it is really a pity to waste time in a place like the palace.
Concubine Chen has a clear love and hate, as long as she is loyal to those who follow her, she will not be treated badly.
"It's been five years." Qing Huan bowed her head respectfully, and Concubine Chen's eyes gradually became a little reluctant, "It's time to find a good person for you to let you out of the palace." ”
Qing Huan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly knelt down and raised his head, "The slave doesn't want to leave the mother, the slave can't rest assured!" ”
Concubine Chen immediately pulled her up, and she didn't know if she was pregnant, which made her extremely emotional.
"How can this palace be willing to give you up, you are like the sister of this palace, but this palace is never a home, if you can escape, you should escape farther."
The glory and wealth that everyone envies, but in the eyes of Concubine Chen, it is a suffocating cage.
I only heard her sigh lightly, and soon Mama came to her side, "Niangniang, Imperial Doctor Xia has come to ask you for a pulse." ”
"Let her in!"
Concubine Chen's eyes lit up, and her joy was beyond words, when Xia Yunxian appeared in front of her, all the palace people around her faded, this has always been the rule.
"The mother's fetal veins are stable, and her complexion is also good." After taking the pulse, Xia Yunxian smiled with satisfaction, and the corners of Concubine Chen's mouth hooked, "I am in a good mood and my appetite is also good, thanks to Imperial Doctor Xia." ”
She looked up at the beautiful scenery outside the window, and suddenly frowned again.
"It's just that things are going too well, and the palace actually feels uneasy, recently the emperor sent a few newcomers to Zhaoqing Palace, and I don't know if the palace is too careful, I always feel unsafe."
What she meant was that she suspected that some of these newcomers were bribed and would take advantage of the opportunity to work against her.
Being prepared for danger in times of peace is a habit that Concubine Chen has developed after several lessons over the years, and Xue Guifei will always find an opportunity to take revenge on her if she does not fall for a day.
"Whether they have different intentions or not, in fact, you can find out by trying." Xia Yunxian opened her mouth lightly, and Concubine Chen immediately looked over, "What is Imperial Doctor Xia's plan?" ”
Seeing Xia Yunxian slowly approaching, she said something in her ear, and Concubine Chen's eyes crossed a little doubt, "That's it?" ”
"Yes, that's how you can get a clue."
Concubine Chen was a little puzzled, she felt that Xia Yunxian and Bai Yujing were becoming more and more similar now, and they didn't play cards according to common sense, which was very mysterious.
The next day, Concubine Chen's figure appeared in the pharmacy.
"Mother, why are you here?" When the palace maids saw Concubine Chen, she was holding a pu fan in her hand, slowly lighting the fire there, and medicine was boiling on the stove.
"It is said that this fetal medicine has to be seen by yourself, and God can feel the sincerity, and the effect is better."
She had a warm smile on her face, having said that, how dare the palace people really let her do it.
I saw them looking at each other, and then one of the palace maids stood up first, "Niangniang, be careful and tired, let's let the slave and maid come." ”
She didn't notice that Concubine Chen glanced at her meaningfully at this moment, "In that case, I'll leave it to you." ”
Concubine Chen turned around and walked out, and after a while, she lowered her voice and motioned to Qing Huan beside her, "You go and stare at her." ”
Unexpectedly, an hour later, Qing Huan came back.
"Niangniang, the new palace maid has done something in your fetal pills."
Concubine Chen's face sank, she was really bold!
Her medicine has always been in charge of a special person, and as soon as this little palace maid seized the opportunity to help decoction the medicine, she couldn't wait to start!
Xia Yunxian quickly received the news, and when he rushed to Zhaoqing Palace, he heard the palace people passing by talking about it.
"Did you hear that? Something happened to Concubine Jia again! She ordered someone to poison Concubine Chen's fetal pills, and she was caught! ”
"No, are you sure it's Concubine Jia?"
"I also think it's strange, but the emperor has been furious and scolded Concubine Jia, who has been shouting grievances, and locked him in the cold palace!"
Xia Yunxian was really impressed by this Concubine Jia, and everyone felt that she didn't have the brains to do such an intriguing thing.
When she entered Concubine Chen's bedroom, the face of the lady on the couch was very ugly, how could she be calm and relaxed when she thought that so many people wanted to harm her and her unborn child.
"Niangniang also thinks that Concubine Jia did it?"
Concubine Chen shook her head, "This palace did what you said, and caught this poisoner, and the little palace maid refused to admit it at first, and only recruited after the punishment." ”
She said that she was instructed by Concubine Jia, because she was afraid that Concubine Chen would give birth to the prince and steal the limelight of the eleventh prince, so she took a risk.
Xia Yunxian was silent, "Can you let the courtiers meet the palace maid?" ”
"Qing Huan said that after confessing, she would die." Also, the little palace maid has just reached the end of her life, and her body is very thin and weak, where can she be tortured.
Xia Yunxian felt very strange, this was not her intention.
She originally asked Concubine Chen to boil the medicine herself, and the palace people all wanted to please their masters, but those thieves had ghosts in their hearts and would deliberately avoid suspicion, as long as they observed who did not step forward to help, they might be suspicious.
The little palace maid actively wanted to express herself, but she became poisoned, which was really stupid and unreasonable.
But now that there is no proof of death, Xia Yunxian feels that things are not so simple.
Concubine Chen looked at Qinghuan next to her in a gloomy mood, "You shouldn't be so hasty and tell the emperor about this." ”
I saw Qing Huan immediately knelt down, and said earnestly, "Niangniang is in danger, and the slave can really be indifferent!" The human and material evidence is there, the slave and maid still have the residue of medicine, and the poison has indeed been experimented within, and Concubine Jia is self-inflicted! ”
As soon as the words fell, she immediately felt Xia Yunxian's scrutinizing gaze fall on her, and immediately lowered her head unnaturally, avoiding her gaze.
Listening to the meaning of Concubine Chen's words, was this palace maid who took it upon herself to spread the word?
I don't know why, Xia Yunxian has an intuition, maybe Concubine Jia is really wronged?
