An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

An Lingrong took a deep breath and said: "The queen gave Qi Guiren the red fruit tree mixed with a drug that can cause the fruit to ripen prematurely, causing some fruits to ripen prematurely and some to be green. Qi Guiren asked why A Yao didn't eat a red fruit. However, there is something wrong with Mr. Qi, because the one A Yao ate was ripe, and only three of the whole tree were ripe. A Yao was lucky, and the rest were all raw. The concubine felt sad when she learned that Qi Guiren had been miscarried. She went to visit her and found out that she was poisoned. If the concubine gave her the antidote, she would not dare to take it, so she asked Qin Sanyue to force her mouth open and scare her to force her to die. He asked her to swallow an antidote pill. Later, Qi Gui was panicked and went to find the Queen. The Queen was an expert in medicine. This concubine did not expect that the Queen was actually an expert in medicine. She could naturally find out that Qi Gui was not poisoned, and Qi Gui was not poisoned. After taking the queen's medicine, erosion occurred. This is the real phenomenon of poisoning. These are all the pills in the concubine's palace. Why not ask the queen to take out the pills she gave to Mr. Qi and compare them."

The emperor's face was clouded and frighteningly dark, and the queen mother was even more angry.

The emperor sternly said: "Queen, how do you defend the medicine you gave Mr. Qi? Wait, Mr. Qi, first tell me the color and size of the medicine the Queen gave you. Mr. Qi, you have to think about it. , if you can’t get along, you will have to stay in the cold palace for the rest of your life.”

The queen's cold eyes were full of hatred, and she glanced at Mr. Qi coldly.

Mr. Qi trembled and was speechless for a long time, just when the emperor was about to give orders again.

Qi Guiren suddenly fell to his knees, crawled over from the ground, hugged An Lingrong's legs tightly, and cried: "Empress Libin, save me, save me."

Qi Guiren did not testify against the queen, but her series of actions were self-evident. An Lingrong remained motionless and looked at her blankly.

The emperor shouted angrily: "Queen, are you going crazy! You are the queen, the empress of the world, what are you doing? How can you be in charge of the Sixth Palace? How can you set an example? You deliberately brought Mi'er to tease me. Mine? Come, take the queen to the cold palace."

The queen suddenly fell in front of the queen mother, crying so hard that she could not say a word.

The Queen Mother persuaded: "Your Majesty, this harem cannot be without the Queen for a day. There is no reason to send the Queen to the cold palace. The reason for this has not been found out yet. Let's put the Queen into confinement first and wait until the matter is clear."

The emperor pointed at Qi Gui and said: "How can we investigate this? It's a waste of my time! I'm so worried about state affairs. What are you doing here? I'm going to be pissed to death if you do this all day long! The queen will be detained for three months first. , relinquishing the power of being in charge of the Sixth Palace, leaving it to Wan Bin to temporarily take charge of it, and Hui Bin to assist in managing the Sixth Palace. The matter reported by Li Bin needs to be verified, and we will deal with you after the verification."

The emperor walked away angrily. There was a cold murderous intent in the queen's eyes. Her pity was all a tragic interpretation. Unexpectedly, this was clearly seen by the emperor who returned to get his hat. The emperor became even more angry and shouted angrily. He said in a voice: "Queen, please take care of yourself and don't let the trouble get out of hand. Only when I depose you as queen one day will you know how to repent! Li Bin, please go back to Yining Palace as soon as possible!"

The emperor shouted angrily. The queen really cried when she heard that she was going to be deposed. She cried very sadly. The queen mother was also shocked and said: "Yixiu, do you know what you are doing? You are already the queen." Ah! What are you still fighting for? What are you fighting for? If you don’t fight or fight, you can live in peace for the rest of your life. In the harem, even if the emperor neglects you, the Ai family will take care of you. This is good, you have to mourn. How can I help you? Go, go, the emperor has asked you to be put into solitary confinement, so you can honestly repent in the palace and don’t play any tricks."

The Queen Mother's words showed that she was also powerless. The Queen sighed helplessly, gritted her teeth and said to Qi Guiren who was kneeling aside and did not dare to move: "Hmph, go find your Libin to save you! This medicine is not strong, it will die. Human skin is corroded bit by bit, if you don't go to Li Bin to get the antidote, if there is a hole in such a beautiful face, the Emperor will never want you again."

Qi Guiren hugged the queen's legs tightly and begged: "Queen, please give me the antidote. Why do you want to harm me? I am helping the queen, why?"

The queen kicked Mr. Qi hard, staggered, and walked out of the Queen Mother's Shoukang Palace wiping her red eyes.

The queen was sentenced to three months of confinement and was relieved of the power of the Sixth Palace. The power of the Sixth Palace fell into the hands of Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang.

An Lingrong returned to Yining Palace to collect evidence and testimonies and handed them to the emperor.

In the Yangxin Hall, with fragrance lingering and candles brightly lit, An Lingrong stood quietly in front of the Emperor. He couldn't bear to say, "Your Majesty, I couldn't help but put up a fight today, making it difficult for the Emperor."

The emperor said without any emotion on his face: "What I care about is the truth. As long as Li Bin can produce evidence, whether it is the queen or Qi Guiren, as long as he violates the palace rules, he will be dealt with according to the palace rules."

An Lingrong handed the thick stack of confession papers to the emperor for review. The emperor didn't even look at them and said softly: "No need to look at it. I believe in Li Bin. For so long, Li Bin has paid a lot for the children in the harem." In addition to protecting my children, all my energy is to take care of the health of the concubines in the harem. Now that the results are out, I have also punished the queen, so let’s end this matter!”

The emperor not only wants the truth, but also the results. What he wants is for big things to be reduced to small things, and small things to be reduced to small things.

An Lingrong put away the pile of papers silently, but the emperor said: "It's better to burn these things in the Yangxin Hall. Libin, you are facing the queen, don't you feel scared?"

An Lingrong was silent, she wanted to bring down more than Concubine Hua, she wanted to bring down the Queen, who was the one who put her to death.

"I don't think there is any big quarrel between you and the Queen. Why do you have to get into such a quarrel? The Queen is the Queen after all, and she also has the identity of being the Queen Mother's niece. Do you understand? Even if I can protect you, I will protect you, Concubine Wan, Concubine Hui, and you, but the Queen Mother will never allow her position to fall by the wayside, and the Queen Mother will not allow me to depose the Queen. This is also where my heart is troubled. I am the Great Qing Emperor. , but you have to listen to people’s instructions and do things based on their expressions.”

"Once I fall out with the Queen Mother, I only have one concubine, but the concubine has many sons, and she still holds Longkodo in her hand. So, Li Pinfan will report to me in advance, and I will analyze it with you. The pros and cons of this matter. If exposing this matter will do more harm than good, then find a way to deal with it softly. Why do you know how to collect evidence in secret, but you don't reveal the information to me first?"

An Lingrong was stunned for a moment. How could he mention this to the emperor without evidence? It would be a serious crime to behead someone at any time.

The emperor said again: "What if I don't protect you? Wouldn't it be a matter of life or death for you? Or, would you rely on me to help you? The person you are confronting is not an ordinary concubine, she is the queen. What do you think? Have you passed?"

An Lingrong gritted his teeth and said: "Back to the emperor, I didn't think so much. I only know that there must be a monster when something goes wrong. If we don't find out the truth of the matter, I'm afraid it will cause even worse consequences."

The emperor nodded and said: "Go, Li Bin, discuss everything with me in advance. Remember, go back to the palace. I want to be alone."
