The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

Concubine Xie felt dizzy!

How is this possible?

She was clearly the one who planned the strategy, and it was she who carefully planned to kill both the Dragonborn and Jingshu in Zhao's belly. However, looking back now, why did it seem that everything was all part of Jingshu's plan?

What went wrong!

Concubine Xie's face turned pale.

Jing Shu glanced at her with a rather funny expression on her face. How could she not stand it now? If we look back, wouldn't we go crazy?

"Look, Your Majesty, Concubine Zhao was not harmed by musk and safflower at all. Isn't it funny that the box was found in the concubine's Yicui Palace? It is clear that someone deliberately framed the concubine. Your Majesty, can you take my place?" I make the decision!" Jing Shu looked at Lu Zan with a coquettish look on her face and said coquettishly.

"Bitch!" Concubine Xie heard her words and screamed angrily!

"Oh! I'm scared to death!" Jing Shu's delicate body trembled, and she quickly hid in Lu Zan's arms, pointed at Concubine Xie and said timidly, "Your Majesty! Look, Concubine Xie, is she crazy? She is How is this suitable for raising the eldest prince? What if the eldest prince is also frightened?"

"Shut up! Even though you are such a charming and charming person, you want to snatch the eldest prince away from me! Dream!" Concubine Xie felt a splitting headache at this time and could not control her emotions at all. He was scolding her so hard that she even wanted to step forward and fight Jingshu.

However, Jingshu was in Lu Zan's arms!

Once Concubine Xie takes action, she will not only fight Jing Shu, but also Lu Zan!

"My Majesty!" Seeing this, Huiyun quickly grabbed Concubine Xie and tried her best to persuade her, "My Majesty, please calm down! For the sake of His Highness, the eldest prince, you must calm down!"

After her persuasion, Concubine Xie stroked her painful forehead and finally calmed down her emotions with difficulty.

Looking up again, she saw Lu Zan looking at her with an extremely indifferent expression.

In just a few months, she had become so accustomed to Lu Zan's cold and indifferent eyes that she no longer felt any heartache.

I don't know if I have been completely disappointed with him, or if my heart has become numb.

"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, what else do you have to say? Did you deliberately do this to harm Zhao Concubine just to frame Yuan Jieyu again?" Lu Zan's low and cold voice sounded at this time.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty did not harm Concubine Zhao! It was all my slave's idea!" Huiyun suddenly knelt down and said.

At this point, Huiyun knew that Concubine Xie had suffered another defeat, a tragic defeat.

Someone has to take the blame.

Then this person can only be her!

"You?" Lu Zan looked at her and said contemptuously, "As a slave, do you think I will believe you when you say this?"

"Your Majesty, what I said is true! I thought the incident with Concubine Zhao was an excellent opportunity, so I arranged all this!"

Huiyun immediately took all the blame on herself, "Yuan Jieyu was disrespectful to the imperial concubine many times, and the servant wanted to take revenge on her because she had a grudge!

"The imperial concubine was kept in the dark by her servants throughout the whole process. She thought it was Yuan Jieyu who really harmed Concubine Zhao, so she targeted Yuan Jieyu like this!"

"But Your Majesty, you have also seen that since Concubine Zhao was not harmed by musk and safflower, but by comfrey, we can know that it was indeed not the concubine who caused Concubine Zhao's accident! Otherwise, she would not have said Concubine Zhao was harmed by musk and safflower! It can be directly said that it was comfrey!"

"Hui Yun..." Concubine Xie didn't expect Hui Yun to sacrifice her life like this. At this moment, she felt her throat was clogged and her heart was in constant pain.

"Your Majesty, what Hui Yun said makes sense. It seems that the imperial concubine is indeed somewhat innocent." At this time, Jing Shu suddenly said.

When she spoke like this, everyone looked surprised.

Yuan Jieyu actually said a good word for Concubine Xie?

"What's your plan?" Concubine Xie would not be grateful for her words. Instead, her expression was full of vigilance, "Don't think that I will be grateful to you if you say this!"

"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. I don't want your gratitude at all." Jing Shu glanced at her contemptuously, then looked at Lu Zan and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that there is someone else who really harmed Concubine Zhao. , this person first attacked Concubine Chen, and then Concubine Zhao. Concubine Chen thought that her goal was not Concubine Chen and Concubine Zhao, but all the concubines in the palace. She did this because she clearly did not want any concubines to be born. Your Majesty's dragonborn! She has such a cruel heart! If we don't find her out, won't the harem in the future be frightened?"

It has to be said that the knife will only hurt if it cuts your own flesh.

Before, all the concubines looked like they were watching the excitement. Now, after hearing these words, everyone felt in danger.

I wonder who in this harem doesn’t want to be pregnant with a dragonborn?

"Your Majesty, what Empress Jieyu said is absolutely right. This person can not only take advantage of Empress Jieyu's diet, but also take advantage of Empress Zhao's anti-fetal medicine. It shows that her methods are extraordinary! If she is not captured, I will I and you sisters, it’s really hard to sleep and eat well!” Cao Guiren said first.

She was quite favored recently, and Lu Zan had checked her name several times before, so she was very likely to be pregnant with the Dragonborn.

"Your Majesty, I think what Sister Cao said is true. I beg your Majesty to catch this person and clear out the harem!" He Cairen followed. She had also been turned over recently.

Only Cui Liangdi remained silent.

She just wanted to speak, but this matter involved Concubine Xie. Their two cousins ​​had a close relationship, so she did not dare to speak rashly.

"Your Majesty, since these two sisters have asked for help, why not take this opportunity to investigate?" Jing Shu followed.

"You said it so easily, check? In such a large harem, there are no clues at all. How to check? Where to start? There are rules in this harem. It is not something Yuan Jieyu can do with just a casual word. ." On the side, Zhou Jieyu, who had never spoken before, suddenly said coldly.

"This matter is actually not difficult to start with." Jing Shu looked at her with a half-smile, "Didn't Cao Guiren say before that this person can attack not only my food, but also Zhao Concubine's anti-fetal medicine? Is it something that an ordinary concubine can do? She must be an old man who has been in the palace for a long time, and her status is not low. Only in this way would anyone be willing to listen to her orders to do such a thing. Zhou Jieyu, you say, Am I right?"

Zhou Jieyu pursed her lips tightly and looked at her without saying anything.

However, a hand hidden in the sleeve was shaking quietly.

The queen saw all this.

The corners of her lips moved, but she didn't say anything.

"What Yuan Jieyu said is absolutely true. If so, let's check it out." Lu Zan finally said at this time, "Wang Zhong, you immediately send someone to the Taiyuan Hospital to find out who has been in the Taiyuan Hospital in the past few months. Purchasing comfrey, who in the harem is going to ask for comfrey, and also send people to search the palaces to see if they can find this thing, check carefully, don’t miss it anywhere!”

"My slave obeys the order!" Wang Zhong immediately led people to investigate vigorously and resolutely.

No one expected that Lu Zan would directly send people to search the palace, and they all felt uneasy for a moment.

I have a clear conscience, but what if someone deliberately framed me?

"Yuan Jieyu is so strategizing, it looks like she has been prepared for it." Zhou Jieyu suddenly said in a weird voice, "What if you frame her in advance? So what?"

Her words can be regarded as expressing the feelings of some concubines.

"Isn't Zhou Jieyu treating me as a god? If I had the ability to predict what happened today, would I not have made arrangements in advance to cause the imperial concubine to suffer a big loss, and still allow her to slander me like she did before? Besides, The emperor's order is not for me to ask the emperor to send people to search the palace." Jing Shu rolled his eyes unceremoniously.

When she said this, Zhou Jieyu had no choice but to shut her mouth.

However, searching for Lithospermum still made her feel uneasy.

At this time, everyone had to be patient and wait for Wang Zhong to come back.

In Yanxi Palace, everyone has their own thoughts.

Outside the Yanxi Palace, there were crowds of people, and the people in front of the imperial court were hurriedly walking between the Taiyuan Hospital and various palaces, making people panic.

Not long after, Wang Zhong led the people back and brought a box.

As soon as the box appeared, Zhou Jieyu's face instantly turned pale.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I have found out that comfrey has the functions of cooling blood, activating blood circulation, clearing away heat, detoxifying, and clearing up rashes. Taiyuan Hospital will purchase some every once in a while to prepare for emergencies. I have checked the records of Taiyuan Hospital. On the 25th of last month, the maid of the Chonghua Palace went to the Taiyuan Hospital to look for medicine. She said that Zhou Jieyu was in some trouble and needed Lithospermum to make medicine. She had to leave some and the servants used it to plant lotus flowers in the Chonghua Palace. I found this well-sealed box in a water tank. When I opened it, I found that it was sliced ​​and dried comfrey."

Wang Zhong said, opening the box and letting Lu Zan take a look.

When Zhou Jieyu heard that he said that the box was found in Zhonghua Palace, she immediately swayed.

"Doctor Chen, let's take a look." Lu Zan glanced at it, waved his hand, and ordered.

"I obey the order." Dr. Chen quickly looked at it and said with certainty, "Back to the emperor, this thing is indeed Lithospermum. As the prince said just now, Lithospermum has the effect of cooling the blood and activating blood circulation. Long-term use will cause uterine uterus in women." Han cannot conceive, and if a pregnant woman takes it, there is a risk of miscarriage. There is not much Lithospermum left in this box. We can conclude that both Yuan Jieyu and Zhao Concubine were harmed by this substance. .

"Isn't it just a herb that can harm people? The real effect of comfrey should be to save people, not harm them. The ones who really harm people are the people who use it." Jing Shu said with emotion at this time.

"Yuan Jieyu is right." Lu Zan looked at Zhou Jieyu with a heavy look, "This thing was found from your Chonghua Palace. There is also a record in the Taiyuan Hospital of people from your palace going to ask for Lithospermum. You Do you have anything to say?"

Zhou Jieyu's face turned pale.

Her chest heaved slightly, and she was confused.

This box is definitely hers, but what’s inside is not comfrey at all!

But...but...

Is it...

Zhou Jieyu thought of something and immediately looked at Jingshu in disbelief.

Jing Shu looked at her like this, her red lips curled up, her eyebrows raised, and the bright and flamboyant expression on her charming face clearly told Zhou Jieyu that yes, everything was just as she had guessed, this box The things inside have been swapped.

If she was not afraid of embarrassment, she could speak out and defend herself.

Zhou Jieyu's face suddenly turned red and white alternately.

She immediately bit her lip.

As soon as Jing Shu saw her like this, she knew that the daughter of the Minister of Etiquette, who always attached great importance to rules and etiquette, would never be able to say those words of defense.

Because what was originally placed in the box was Mr. Jiao, which ancient women used to comfort themselves.

On the one hand, Zhou Jieyu has always been known to attach great importance to rules. She spends her days either in the "Female Precepts", "Female Training", or in the palace rules, tightly binding herself to the rules and precepts. However, she will secretly Mr. Yongjiao was having fun down there, and when word got out, he was a sanctimonious person with no shame.

Although Jing Shu felt that there was nothing wrong with women seeking pleasure in private, but who made this an ancient harem, and who made women have so many shackles on them?

On the other hand, Zhou Jieyu cannot speak to outsiders even more.

Just because she didn't find Mr. Jiao herself, but was given by her lover.

As for her lover, he is still her brother in name only.

Such chaos has no regard for human relations. If the emperor, relying on Mr. Jiao, found out that Zhou Jieyu dared to cuckold Lu Zan secretly, it would be one thing whether she died or not. Her father, who was the minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, , the whole family behind me may have to follow suit.

"Concubine... I have nothing to say. Concubine, I plead guilty!" Finally, Zhou Jieyu said in a difficult tone. She didn't even say a word to defend herself, and just confessed her guilt.

A look of surprise appeared on the faces of all the concubines.

When Wang Zhong told Zhou Jieyu about Chonghua Palace, they were already quite surprised.

But she didn't expect that she didn't even defend herself.

"Zhou Jieyu, we usually only have a few verbal disputes. I have never harmed you, let alone done anything sorry to you. Why do you want to harm me? But you are instigated by others? If you say it , I will definitely plead with the emperor to spare your life." At this time, Jing Shu looked at her and said.

"No one ordered me!"

When Zhou Jieyu heard this, she immediately denied it, and then sneered with a rather self-deprecating expression, "I can't stand you, I'm jealous of you, I hate you, that's why I'm hurting you like this, I don't want you to get pregnant with a dragon." Yi! Everything is as you said before. I can’t conceive a child myself, so I don’t want other women in this harem to get pregnant!”

"You are really willing to risk your life to take the blame for others." Jing Shu said sarcastically.

"Not as clever as Yuan Jieyu!" Zhou Jieyu stabbed back coldly.

"If I really had the means, how could I fall for your tricks and almost be unable to conceive a child for the rest of my life?" Jing Shu responded rudely.

"Your Majesty, I plead guilty, please forgive me." Zhou Jieyu seemed to be unwilling to argue with Jingshu anymore, knelt down on the ground and said directly.

She was so willing to die, but it made Lu Zan quite angry.

"You hurt her with such a vicious heart, yet you just confessed in a simple sentence?"
