Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

Chapter 226: Crimes in the Eyes of the Bodhisattva

"Why, is the hairpin I gave you not beautiful? Why haven't you worn it in the past few times I've been here?"

Oh, are you talking about that hairpin that weighs a pound? Oh my god, not to mention whether it's ugly or not, just the weight, my head can't bear it!

"It was a gift from the Queen Mother. Of course I have to put it on display and admire it from time to time. That's why I have never worn it."

"Haha, those jewelry are meant to be worn by people. If they are left there, they will become dead objects. As the saying goes, people wear what they like. Yihang, I think you are a good match for it..."

"Empress Dowager! I am Yi Yan." Xu Yixing's palms were sweating again. This was not the first time that the Queen Mother recognized her. Now she had no doubt that she would have her own way to distinguish between herself and Yi Yan in the future. Fortunately, she was confused, otherwise it would be terrible if she could see it at a glance.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh!" The Queen Mother took the reading mirror from the table beside her and said, "Look, my eyesight is really getting worse. But speaking of it, I always feel that you and your sister are really alike!"

"The Queen Mother has seen my sister?"

"Yes, but that was a long time ago. Yuan'er was naughty at that time and liked to bully the weak. Your sister suffered a loss one time. Haha, Yuan'er was also stupid and thought no one saw it! If I hadn't sent someone to clean up the mess, this matter... cough cough, I'm getting off topic."

The dowager picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, but Xu Yixing felt a surge of emotions in his heart.

Is the Queen Mother talking about the incident when Lu Anyuan pushed her into the well?

So this does not mean that the matter was not perfect at the time, but it is also true that no one knew about it?

Xu Yixing was still thinking about something when she felt someone was looking at her. She was startled and looked up immediately. It was indeed the Queen Mother looking at her.

However, the confusion in his eyes just now was not fake, and the Queen Mother could not see anything.

"Queen Mother, I don't know what you are talking about. What happened next?"

"Later? Hahahaha, I forgot. You didn't go to the palace often when you were a child, so you might not be familiar with it. Later, your sister got sick, and then she got better."

The Queen Mother finished speaking and smiled at her again, but she still had no reaction. The strange feeling in her heart had long been suppressed. Xu Yixing now looked like a little deer with eyes that were no different from Yi Yan's, making people feel that he could not hide a trace of his thoughts.

"Is that so? Then sister and Anyuan had a close relationship when they were little, what a pity..." She was very familiar with revealing her sadness at the right time.

"Alas! Let's not talk about them. You are such a kind-hearted child. I heard that it was you who stopped Princess Cheng from chasing Wu Xueyan away? What a pity, she is also ungrateful and framed your family like this..."

"Empress Dowager! Empress Dowager! It's bad, the Fourth Princess has had her bleeding!" Before she could finish her sentence, a palace maid rushed in from outside. Her demeanor was relatively calm, but her words were obviously panicked.

"What?" Xu Yixing and the Queen Mother leaned forward at the same time, in disbelief. How long had it been? And already something had happened?

Xu Yixing looked at the Queen Mother in panic. Since something had happened, the Queen Mother would definitely come forward to take care of it, right? But he didn't expect that the old lady seemed to be stimulated. As soon as he looked over, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother!"

The Empress Dowager fainted, which greatly surprised Xu Yixing. Although the responsibility was not hers, as a junior present, it was impossible for her to go to the Fahua Hall to check on the Empress Dowager. She could only stay by the Empress Dowager's bedside and serve her medicine wholeheartedly.

When the Emperor and Empress arrived, it was already half an hour later. It must have been because they were busy treating the Fourth Princess and heard about the accident in Yian Palace, so they hurried over.

After the emperor came in, he went straight to the empress dowager's bedside, his eyes full of worry, and kept asking the imperial physician; the empress did notice Xu Yixing, but did not expect her to be here, and looked puzzled.

"Your Majesty, Queen, I was by the Queen Mother's side when she fainted from shock just now, so I served her medicine. Now that the Emperor and Queen are both here, I will take my leave first." Xu Yi bowed politely, left the bedroom, and stood in the outer hall waiting.

There is now a crowd of people standing in the outer hall. It seems that except for the fourth princess's mother, Concubine Gong, and the third prince's wife, all the other concubines are here.

As soon as she came out, a concubine came forward to ask about the situation. Xu Yixing told them the truth and then quietly stepped aside. She wanted to ask about the fourth princess's situation, but unfortunately the whole palace was filled with people who cared about the queen mother, so she couldn't say anything.

Retreating to a corner where no one noticed her, a layer of obscurity crept into her eyes; she was thinking.

Very strange, the Queen Mother was very strange. She clearly said that she was confused, but every word she said before she fainted was meaningful. She was smart and her eyes were sharp. How could she be an old lady with a confused mind?

And the fainting just now, the palace servants were very careful when reporting the Fourth Princess's condition, and didn't even say something like "the child is gone", so why did the Queen Mother faint? And her relationship with the Fourth Princess seemed to be just like that, so there shouldn't be such a big emotional ups and downs.

While he was thinking, a man walked in quickly from outside the door and slipped into the inner hall without any obstruction.

When Xu Yixing raised her eyes, she only saw a blurry back, but she recognized the pattern on the clothes. It should be the strong man beside the emperor. She didn't see Eunuch Kang go in with the emperor and empress just now, so she thought it must be him.

Not even half a moment after Eunuch Kang went in, the emperor's angry voice was heard from the bedroom. Then the door curtain was lifted, and the emperor walked out quickly with an angry face.

"It's a good thing that you are all here, so I don't have to send anyone to pass on the message!" After the emperor finished speaking, he sat down on the main throne and spoke to the concubines on the ground:

"Yingfei Zhou is vicious and cruel. She committed a crime in the Fahua Palace, causing the death of the fourth princess and the emperor's son. She also frightened the empress dowager and she fainted and has not woken up yet. She is not worthy of being an imperial concubine. I order her to be stripped of her title and moved to the cold palace from today onwards, and she will be confined to reflect on her mistakes!"

After the emperor finished speaking, another dark cloud went in, leaving the concubines in the palace, some gloating, some frightened and scared.

Xu Yixing closed his eyes tightly. He didn't expect that the fourth princess's child was still lost. It was such a pity.

Not long after the emperor went in, Eunuch Kang dismissed everyone. Xu Yixing dragged his heavy steps out of the outer hall and saw Lu Anyuan and the fourth prince were there too.

"How is it? Is the Royal Grandmother okay?"

"He hasn't woken up yet. The emperor and queen are here. Let's go first."

Lu Anyuan looked at Yian Palace worriedly. The Fourth Prince came over and said a few words of advice, then left on his own.

"Let's go too."

Xu Yixing grabbed Lu Anyuan's clothes and said, "Why don't we go see the Fourth Princess?"

"No need for that. When I entered the palace just now, I heard that the Fourth Princess is using a palace of a concubine near the Fahua Palace because it is inconvenient to move. It is a time of great chaos, so we should not add to the chaos."
