Chapter 220: Framed
"Oh no, let's put out the fire!" Just when people wanted to sleep, there was a shout from the palace maid. Noticeably hurried, accompanied by the sound of splashing water.
In an instant, the palace was in chaos, and the eunuchs and palace ladies were in a hurry, each carrying water to extinguish the fire, perhaps because their movement was too loud, thus disturbing the other people who were asleep.
Xu Lianyi was still jealous of Kong Mingdeng's affairs in Weiyang Palace, even if there were people around her who offered advice to her, but she didn't seem to listen to anything. There was no solution at the moment, and just as she was thinking, she heard a noise outside.
"What the hell is going on outside?" she couldn't help the doubts in her heart, and then walked out, finding that there was a cloud of smoke above the Mingtao Pavilion, and it was still burning.
Mu Yunting sent someone to inquire about the cause of the fire, and found that it was caused by the fall of Kong Ming's lantern, and he blamed himself in his heart. It's just that the damage is irreparable, and he can only write his own guilt himself.
For the momentary playfulness and burned out, even if the things related to the ancestors are to death, it is difficult to escape the blame, but you can't put your life out of the way. He had to have the stove brought over, and he burned the book of sins he had written, so as to comfort the ancestors of the spirits in heaven.
"In the final analysis, it's not because of Qiao Yindi, the demon girl who calamitized the country, if she hadn't asked the emperor to put Kong Ming Lantern with her, then there would be no fire. Behind him, a familiar female voice suddenly came, and I saw Qiao Jingyuan slowly walking from the imperial garden, and her tone was full of sarcasm.
Here, no one else passed by, otherwise, once it was heard, then the final thing would be to kill, even Xu Lianyi, who was the queen, could not guarantee her safety.
"Anyway, it's happened, and now the main thing is to put out the fire. She didn't refute the other party's words, but connived at the other party to say this, because even she couldn't deny Qiao Yindi's influence in Mu Yunting's heart. Maybe even she can't compare with it, so she chooses not to compare.
After this incident of Kong Minglan, it also changed the impression of the people in the palace on Qiao Yindi again. Not only in terms of power position, but also in terms of the emperor's favor for her.
"After all, you are still too kind, if it were me, you would definitely get rid of it quickly, and you would definitely not be able to leave any hidden dangers, otherwise there would be endless troubles. Qiao Jingyuan naturally won't hide anything in front of Xu Lianyi, and what she has to say is straight to the point, which is because she knows what kind of character the other party is, even if she says more, she doesn't have to worry about leaking secrets.
This time it was the other party's turn to be silent, and instead of continuing to stay outside, he silently walked back to Weiyang Palace, and the matter of extinguishing the fire was naturally solved by the palace maids and eunuchs. As for the rest, there is no need to explain at all to be able to guess the final outcome.
The other side.
As soon as Qiao Yindi returned to the palace, she kept crying, and the appearance of pear blossoms with rain made Mu Yunting feel distressed when she looked good. I wanted to comfort her and say something considerate, but her stomach suddenly hurt, and it was accompanied by an oozing sound.
"Help me, my stomach hurts......" she frowned, looking pained, her right hand stroking her belly, and she stammered a little as she spoke.
He helped her aside, gently put her on the bed, with an intersecting look on his face, looking at her appearance at the moment, he became more and more distressed, and shouted loudly outside: "Someone, go and call the imperial doctor." ”
Some people in the palace were undoubtedly the fastest, and the imperial doctor soon appeared in front of them, and took the pulse for Qiao Yindi, the original frowning brows instantly loosened, only to hear him say: "The emperor can rest assured, it's just that the fetal gas has been moved, as long as you recuperate, you will be fine." ”
Although it was a tire gas, it was different from the previous one, this time it was obvious that this was caused by man, but the relationship between them was relatively special, and he didn't tell the truth.
After hearing this, Mu Yunting's heart was completely relieved, fortunately the child was fine, and waved his hand, "Okay, you go down." ”
The matter was resolved in an instant with a pulse check by the Imperial Doctor, and during this period, no matter what happened, there was a danger that could arise. The only thing you can do is to protect yourself as much as possible.
"You must be the master for me, there must be something wrong with the pillow that Qiao Jingyuan gave me, she put catkins in it, just to harm our children!" Qiao Yindi cried hysterically, and directly made up her mind in an instant. And at the moment she is a victim, so naturally what she does is easy to believe.
He didn't want to see her suffer any grievances, so he waited until she was a little better, and then took her to see Qiao Jingyuan, in order to finish the matter.
At this moment, the lights of Weiyang Palace have been turned off, and occasionally a few maids are guarding the door, but all this cannot stop their behavior. On the contrary, they think that this is a sign of weakness of heart.
"You'd better give me an explanation, otherwise don't blame me for telling you the punishment directly!" Mu Yunting directly kicked open Qiao Jingyuan's door, and the anger in his eyes couldn't be concealed at this moment. He has never been angry in his life, but now he is angry for the sake of his future children. As long as it is about the people around him, no matter who actually hurt them, he will definitely pay them back.
The movement was too loud, which disturbed the other palace maids and eunuchs, but when they saw that the person who came was the emperor, they didn't dare to act rashly, but observed from the sidelines, ready to come out to intercede at any time.
"Dare to ask the emperor, what did the courtiers do wrong?" After Qiao Jingyuan put on his clothes, he slowly walked out and asked with a puzzled expression. When Yu Guang saw Qiao Yindi, she knew that someone must have framed her, and she really deserved to be a harem, and she was intrigued at all times.
"There is catkins in the pillow you gave her, causing her to have fetal gas, and hurting the future dragon fetus, can you afford it?" Mu Yunting snorted coldly, and the tone of his voice at the moment became a little frightened because of anger, and said coldly.
Xu Lianyi had long expected such a drama to happen, so she had already prepared a pillow early in the morning, and specially ordered someone to take out a pillow that could be used as a contrast.
"Your Majesty, the concubines can prove that this matter was definitely not done by Qiao Jingyuan, you look at the legs of this pillow, one is embroidered with a phoenix tail, and the other is missing a feather on the tail. As soon as she appeared, she directly relieved her. And the structure of the pillow was also taken out by her.
With such evidence, it is a bit difficult to even believe it, and there is a little difference.
Framing can't be a counter-attack, but Qiao Yindi has nothing to do at all, but has attracted much attention because of this. Among them, protecting her is equivalent to protecting the fetus in the womb, and the mother must not make the slightest mistake, otherwise the child will be affected.
The matter was settled, and there was no explanation, but in the end there was no punishment. But that's pretty good for them.
"Thank you so much, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to escape this catastrophe, my cousin is really getting more and more excessive, and she still wants to get rid of me. By now you should know how powerful the intrigue in the harem is. Qiao Jingyuan was very grateful to Xu Lianyi for her words afterwards, but without any means in the harem, she would never be able to survive, so she had to do her best to remind.
"I was also subconscious at the time, but fortunately you are fine, then I will be relieved. The other party smiled indifferently, and he would stand up and speak out about this matter, but it was only out of instinct. She just didn't want innocent people in the harem to be wronged.
A few days later.
Mu Yunting was busy with the decrees that benefited Miao Jiang, and he didn't have time to enter the harem, and even the food and lodging were in the Changxin Hall these days, and he also ordered not to see anyone.
What happened to the Miao family has also caused a great sensation in the past few days, and the deepest impression is undoubtedly the rebellion.
"Your Majesty, the queen wants to see you, it's been a few days, do you still want to refuse?" the eunuch asked cautiously beside him, looking at the other party's face as he spoke. He bent over to get a better sense of what he was saying.
Hearing this, Mu Yunting slowly opened his eyes, flipped through the folded hands for a moment, without the slightest expression, picked up a pen and wrote and painted on it, just when the eunuch thought he couldn't speak, a voice suddenly sounded, "No matter who it is, I can't see it." ”
After receiving this order, he immediately walked out of the Changxin Hall and closed the door, but the person who saw it was Qiao Yindi. But even so, his reply was still the same, "The emperor has already told the miscellaneous family that he has been too busy these days, no matter who it is, he will not see it." ”
There are people guarding outside, and not even a fly can fly in except for the designated person.
When Xu Lianyi came, she happened to see Qiao Yindi, who was already five months pregnant, blocked at the door, and it was obvious that it was still difficult to talk about Mu Yunting.
When they couldn't see anyone, they had to go back to the palace. You can't make a big fuss about it, otherwise it will only leave a bad impression. The carriage was divided into two, and just because they were travelling, they took a carriage back by the way.
"Queen Mother, the emperor has been very busy recently, even the child in my belly is five months old, but you haven't moved at all. Could it be that something went wrong?" Qiao Yindi sat in the carriage, with a smug look on her face, and couldn't help showing off. On the other hand, he turned his gaze to the other party's stomach and raised his eyebrows.
Such a mocking tone, if Xu Lianyi still couldn't hear it, then she really had lived in vain for so many years! When I arrived at the place, I got out of the car and was led by the maid.
