Chapter 70 The Crested Hairpin 21
"Princess, what about you?"

"I have to accompany the Queen Mother." Lingyao said, "Besides, if this happened, if I didn't wait outside Fengming Palace, it would be too shameful, as if I didn't care about Lin Jieyu."

Although it may be useless for her to go, but she will definitely be criticized if she doesn't go.

"Yes." Cui Xin never refuted her words, but only reminded: "Princess, you have to remember, don't stand out. This palace looks gorgeous, but in fact the water is very deep. If you are not careful, it will be carefully designed by others." The whirlpool swallows up all the dregs!"

"Don't worry!" Lingyao patted Cuixin on the shoulder, and hurriedly chased after the Queen Mother.

The lights in Fengming Palace were on, but there was no sound in the side hall, it was obvious that Lin Jieyu had passed out from the pain.

Seeing the sixth prince sitting aside with his head bowed, Lingyao thought he was anxious and sad, so she wanted to comfort her, but was dragged to a corner by Liang Yuzheng.

"Go back quickly!" Liang Yuzheng said in a low voice, "I have just learned that there is something wrong with the pot of tea sent by the empress. The imperial grandmother has never liked the empress, so she will definitely hold on to it. When you are here, it will not be safe." Who will use it!"

Lingyao sighed, and said: "But if I leave, Lin Jieyu treats me well and will definitely be gossiped about. There are too many people in this world staring at you and trying to find your fault. Now I am not only It’s Wei Yunyao, and I’m our entire General’s Mansion.”

She broke free from his hand and said: "You don't have to worry, if the empress is wronged, I believe that even if someone has great abilities, they can't turn right and wrong."

She said so, Liang Yuzheng had no choice but to let her go, and finally said: "Yao'er, if the situation is critical at that time, a word may be the death penalty, you must listen to my hint."

He wanted to protect her no matter what, even if it was still difficult for him to escape.It would be a lie to say that she was not moved, Lingyao's eyes moved slightly: "Okay."

In the side hall, the imperial doctor was desperately trying to save Lin Jieyu, while in the main hall, the emperor sat on the head, and the eunuch next to him carefully rubbed his temples, but he still felt bored and waved him off.

"Emperor, it's useless to be anxious now. You still need to pay attention to the dragon's body. Instead of waiting here, the Ai family thinks that they should find out who is making trouble." The Queen Mother said, her face became serious, obviously deep Pain and nausea.

The emperor finally cheered up a bit: "Mother, please speak quickly!"

"The Ai family discovered the abortion medicine in the green plum tea that Lin Jieyu drank. It was a concentrated pill made from a full amount of abortion medicinal materials. It was placed in the pot before it was completely dissolved, which made Lin Jieyu so dangerous. , it can be seen how vicious-hearted the people behind the scenes are!"

Having said that, Empress Chen naturally understood that the Empress Dowager's knife was aimed at herself, so she hurried forward to salute: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, my concubine dares to swear to the sky, this matter has nothing to do with my concubine!"

"Father, grandmother, and sons and servants also believe in the queen mother!" Liang Yuzheng knelt down and said, "What's more, how could such a plan full of mistakes and omissions be the work of the queen mother? Someone must have framed Concubine Lin and wanted to blame the queen mother. Kill two birds with one stone!"

"That's right, it's precisely because anyone with a little brain would not act like this, that's why the queen has no fear, and feels that she will definitely not be found out." The queen mother sneered, "The queen... is really calculating!"

Queen Chen was shocked. She had already expected that the Queen Mother would take this opportunity to bite off a piece of her flesh, so she said, "Did the Queen Mother insist on pouring this dirty water on my concubine's head?"

Seeing that she was still calm and composed, the Queen Mother glanced at her and said, "Then how do you prove your innocence?"

"That tea was prepared by the concubine himself. Before giving it to Lin Jieyu, the concubine also drank it. Isn't it here now?"

"Lin Jieyu is pregnant with a dragon child, and you have nothing in your belly. The two of you are naturally different."

Empress Chen was furious, but Liang Yuzheng held down his mother's hand and gave her some comfort. He said, "The pot of tea has also passed through the hands of the palace maid Huan'er. How can the emperor's grandmother insist that the queen did it?"

Huan'er who was kneeling with Empress Chen hurriedly said, "It's not a slave!"

"It's not you or someone!" Liang Yuzheng said angrily, "It's fine for the queen mother to drink that tea, but it's fine for the empress Pianlin to drink it. During the period, you handled the pot of tea. It wasn't you, could it be my highness?!"

"Slave... Slave..." Huan'er was speechless, desperately tugging at Empress Chen's sleeve and said, "Empress Empress, save this slave, save this slave!"

"Huan'er, I didn't expect you to frame Ben Gong like this!" Empress Chen shook off her, "If it's really you, Ben Gong advises you to plead guilty, so that you won't implicate your parents and family."

Huan'er was taken aback, tears of despair gushed out, but she still kowtowed heavily: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, this servant pleads guilty!"

Liang Yuzhen breathed a sigh of relief without any trace. The emperor looked at Huan'er with extremely disgusted eyes and said: "Come here, punish me with a stick!"

"How much, Your Majesty?" a eunuch asked.

The emperor didn't say a word, but the eunuch understood that the emperor was... wanting the maid's life!

When Huan'er was pulled down, she glanced at Empress Chen, and she had nothing more to say, but the Empress Dowager said, "Wait."

Empress Chen was taken aback, and she saw the queen mother and said, "Why did you frame Lin Jieyu?"

Huan'er laughed at herself: "Because she is ostentatious! Isn't it just that she was born into a wealthy family? Why are you so proud? The slaves are also women, why should they be lower than her?!"

"Pull it out!" The emperor roared, and the eunuch covered her mouth and pulled her down.

"Just fight outside!" the emperor said angrily, "I want to see who dares to be disrespectful!"

Huan'er's miserable cry came from outside. Empress Chen lowered her head and grabbed her cuff vigorously, while Liang Yuzheng comforted her and gently stroked her back.

Cuixin rushed over, walked to Lingyao, and whispered something in her ear.

Lingyao just replied "Understood" calmly, but her heart was overwhelming and difficult to calm down.

Cui Xin said just now: "Just now the second prince told the servant that he saw the seventh princess stuffing the glutinous rice balls in her cuff through the spout of the pot."

The Queen Mother was too purposeful just now, causing everyone's attention to be on the Queen. Queen Chen was a little panicked in order to protect herself. Liang Yuzhen hurriedly pushed Huan'er out to atone for her crime, but everyone ignored the pot of tea passing by. There is another person, and that is Liang Yujin!
"Queen, do you know?" the queen mother asked leisurely.

"Of course the concubine doesn't know!" Empress Chen said righteously.

"That's the case, the queen can't even manage her own palace well, so how can she control the entire harem?" the queen mother asked.

The emperor also spoke: "Lin Jieyu needs to rest and recuperate. The empress has been negligent, so I will trouble the empress to take care of the harem and teach the empress more."

"Alright." The Empress Dowager said, "Although Ai's family is old, but the queen is incompetent, so it can only be like this. It's just that Zheng'er is smart, and Ai's family is worried..."
