A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

The prince coughed twice, spat out a mouthful of black blood, and then spoke weakly.

"Father, Mother, I remembered something."

"Last year, when I went to the Huguo Temple to pray, I met Concubine Su. In addition to praying for the Great Zhou and my father, the Huguo Temple also lit a long-burning lamp for me. Concubine Su was beside me at the time, so she must have seen my horoscope."

The prince spoke very slowly, as if he was holding his breath. If you didn't know the inside story, you would think he was seriously ill.

Su Xiangling's already pale face turned even paler. Did the prince already believe it?

They had been in love for a while and were pregnant with a child, but he didn't trust her at all.

Hate him? She did. But besides the prince, she hated Su Qingyu and Mr. Zhou even more.

Emperor Xuande was about to ask Mr. Zhou how to resolve this secret technique when he saw Su Xiangling suddenly turn around and pounce on the prince.

He was still shouting, "Su Qingyu, it's all your fault. You're the one who harmed me."

"Did you have someone put the stuff into the East Palace? You and Mr. Zhou are in cahoots. You want to take revenge on me, don't you?"

She was so excited and had been kneeling for a long time that she staggered to Su Qingyu's side.

Su Qingyu was concerned about her pregnancy and was afraid of being contaminated. She stood up and took a step back, her movements were quick and her reaction was fast.

Upon seeing this, Hu Lu quickly winked at the two aunts behind Concubine Xian, who reacted quickly and rushed to the prince to support Su Xiangling.

Su Qingyu saw that the matter involved her and it seemed that she could not escape any more.

She straightened her dress, walked to the center of the hall and knelt down, "I failed to teach my cousin well, and it almost caused a disaster. I am willing to be punished."

Emperor Xuande had a very good impression of Su Qingyu, firstly because of Shen Zhixiu, and secondly because every time he met Su Qingyu, she was dignified and graceful in her every move, and it could be seen that she was well-educated.

So when Emperor Xuande heard Su Qingyu say this, he said gently: "Get up, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Su Qingyu did not stand up, but said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I have two requests, please fulfill them."

The courtiers and ladies sitting in the hall, some of whom were familiar with the Su family, could not help but show disdain. It was no secret that the two young ladies of the Su family were not on good terms. But no one expected that Madam Shen San would actually add insult to injury at this time.

Although Su Qingyu hadn't spoken yet, they seemed to have guessed what she was going to say. They just hoped that the emperor would punish Su Xiangling severely and let her get the punishment she deserved.

Some people even started to whisper to each other, talking as if they were living Buddhas. In fact, if this happened to them, they would be even more cruel than Su Qingyu.

Emperor Xuande did not make things difficult for him, but said amiably, "If you have any request, please tell me."

Su Qingyu kowtowed to Emperor Xuande before she spoke: "Your Majesty, I beg you to thoroughly investigate this matter and not wrongly accuse my second sister."

"If it is really my second sister who was confused for a moment, please be merciful, Your Majesty, and forgive my second uncle, second aunt, and the entire Su family."

In fact, this matter has been thoroughly investigated, and Emperor Taizu issued an order when he founded the country that the art of witchcraft should not implicate innocent people. So even if Su Qingyu did not plead for mercy, the Su family would be fine.

But her words did win her a lot of favor. It was also the most powerful response to Su Xiangling's accusation.

The ladies who had slandered Su Qingyu before were now embarrassed and stopped talking.

As expected, Emperor Xuande agreed to Su Qingyu's request, praised her for her purity and filial piety, and gave her additional rewards.

Su Xiangling watched Su Qingyu stand up calmly, and she wished she could bite her teeth to pieces.

But she was restrained by her two aunts and could not move, with a handkerchief stuffed in her mouth.

After Su Qingyu left, Emperor Xuande looked at Mr. Zhou, "Then how do we unlock this secret technique?"

Mr. Zhou replied: "This is not difficult. Just prepare a brazier and let His Royal Highness burn the doll himself, and everything will be fine."

Chen Zheng looked at the prince, then at Mr. Zhou, "You mean, after the prince burns the doll, it will be restored to its original state?"

Mr. Zhou nodded, looking confident.

He was confident, but Chen Zheng didn't.

"Your Majesty, I think this statement is a bit misleading. I still think that the Crown Prince seems to be poisoned. Why don't you ask a doctor to take a look?"

Chen Zheng's uncle died in the battle between Qianzhou and Miaojiang, so Chen Zheng never had a good impression of the Miao people.

He didn't believe a word Mr. Zhou said. At this moment, the prince was weak and vomiting black blood, which was a symptom of poisoning. The imperial physician couldn't diagnose it because his medical skills were not good. If he found a skilled doctor, he would naturally be able to diagnose it.

What kind of witchcraft is this? It's just a trick used by the southern barbarians to scare people. How can it be as magical as they say?

Xianfei was a little unhappy when she heard Chen Zheng say that, but considering that Chen Zheng was the prince's teacher, she did not embarrass him in public.

Instead, she said to Emperor Xuande: "Your Majesty, what Lord Chen said makes sense. I think we should try it according to what Mr. Zhou said. If it gets better, it will get better naturally. If it doesn't, we should find a famous doctor as soon as possible."

The virtuous concubine first agreed with what Lord Chen said, and then suggested trying the method Mr. Zhou suggested first.

Chen Zheng felt a little uncomfortable, but after all, he still believed what this southern barbarian said.

Emperor Xuande nodded and agreed with Concubine Xian's opinion.

Hu Lu took his men and went downstairs to prepare the brazier himself.

Soon, the brazier was brought to the center of the hall. The prince walked to the brazier with the puppet in his hand. He looked around at everyone and solemnly threw the puppet in.

The fire in the brazier was burning very vigorously, and the puppet disappeared in a moment. The prince's face also became visibly red.

He took two deep breaths, and the uncomfortable feeling in his chest disappeared.

Su Qingyu was deeply impressed by Mr. Zhou's unique skills in both poisoning and detoxification. If she didn't know the inside story, she would have thought that the prince and Mr. Zhou had discussed it beforehand.

Mr. Zhou put the antidote in the doll, which would take effect when exposed to fire. This trick was really amazing. Once the poison was solved, it would kill Su Xiangling.

The prince took two deep breaths and returned to normal. He turned and glared at Su Xiangling, his eyes full of viciousness.

When he thought about how Su Xiangling had treated him so harshly for the sake of her unborn child, and the story of the hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix and the Taoist hexagram, they were all fake.

This woman is really ambitious. She deliberately approached him just to get pregnant and let the child in her belly ascend to a high position.

He was holding back his anger, desperate to vent it out.

The prince stepped forward quickly and, whether intentionally or unintentionally, kicked Su Xiangling in the stomach.

Su Xiangling screamed and fell to the ground, spitting out the handkerchief that had been stuffed in her mouth.

She covered her lower abdomen in horror, her face twisted in pain, and felt a hot current flowing out from under her body.

"Your Highness...save our child..."
