[Quick Wear] Puhua Fairy is blessed with a long pregnancy

Kangxi's anger shocked everyone present, and the palace servants dared not breathe a word.

Feng Qi suppressed her teeth from chattering, thinking of the suspicious person she had just seen. When Liang Jiugong was about to leave, she kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, I just saw a suspicious person. She is Cui'er, the maid who cleans the Jingren Palace. When the master was in trouble just now, I saw her at the window, suspected of eavesdropping."

When Feng Hua heard this, she nodded quickly and said, "When I was carrying those flowers back yesterday, Cui Er bumped into me, and the flowers fell to the ground. If it was her, she would have had the opportunity to get close to the flowers."

"Liang Jiugong, go check."

"No matter what means, I want to know the truth."

Kangxi had a blank expression on his face and wrapped his big hand around Sheng Huan's still cold hand.

Thinking of the signs of miscarriage that the imperial physician had just mentioned, and thinking about how she would suffer because of this... the man became more and more angry.

"Yeah." Liang Jiugong shivered with cold and bent down.

Soon, there was a noise outside. After an unknown amount of time, Liang Jiugong finally walked in quickly to explain the progress.

"Your Majesty, after searching, we found trumpet creeper pollen in Cui'er's sleeves. Not only that, there was also some in the clothes she changed yesterday."

Liang Jiugong lowered his head and continued, "I also found out that Cui'er had private contact with Qianling, the personal maid of the concubine of Chuxiu Palace, yesterday."

Although the meeting between the two was secretive, if His Majesty is to conduct a thorough investigation, there will definitely be loopholes that can be found.

"Go and bring Consort Chuxiu Palace and Qianling here."

"Also..." Kangxi glanced at all the imperial doctors present and said, "Go check the pollen situation of trumpet creepers in the Imperial Hospital."

It is not yet the season for trumpet creepers to bloom, so the source of this medicinal powder may be in the Imperial Hospital.

Doctor Zhang and his companions were frightened by the look on their faces.

Kangxi's aura was cold and solemn. He turned his head and his gaze fell on Sheng Huan. He didn't want anyone to come in and disturb her rest, nor did he want to dirty the house. He decided to conduct the interrogation outside. He stood up and left the inner room.

"Walk."

His voice was eerily calm.

The air around became more stagnant and the atmosphere more tense.

In the open space outside Jingren Palace, Cui'er was quickly brought in front of Kangxi. She was shaking constantly and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"It was not this servant's fault. I know nothing about it. Your Majesty, please spare my life!"

Kangxi sat in a high seat with an unclear expression.

Liang Jiugong shouted at this time: "You didn't do it. How come there is trumpet creeper powder on you? Tell me, who ordered you to do it!"

"No one, no one ordered me to do this. Your Majesty, please know clearly that I really know nothing and have done nothing!"

Seeing that she was still resisting, Kangxi's eyes flashed with cruelty: "Come here, drag her out and give her thirty lashes."

Cui'er froze and was dragged away before she could react. Soon, a "bang bang" sound came from the distance. It was the sound of a stick hitting flesh. Apart from this sound, there was also Cui'er's muffled groan, which was very faint and fragmented.

When she was dragged up again, Cui'er was in a miserable state and covered in blood.

"Tell me, who is behind you?" Kangxi said in a cold voice.

"No...no..." Cui'er was crawling on the ground, dying, with blood all over the floor.

"It seems that you don't even want your own nine clans anymore." Kangxi was already in a very bad mood, and now his patience was running out, and he was murderous: "Someone come..."

"It's Qianling, it's the servant who was ordered by Qianling from Chuxiu Palace!" Cui'er finally panicked and shouted.

-

The news of Jingren Palace inviting the imperial physician spread quickly throughout the harem. Moreover, since the Emperor had already gone there, something big must have happened.

Everyone kept their eyes on Jingren Palace to make sure they would receive the news first.

Many people were even wondering which "vanguard" was behind this move. While they were still guessing, they received news that people from the Ministry of Punishment had gone to the Chuxiu Palace.

I really didn't expect that little Hesheli would be so impatient.

Chuxiu Palace

When little Hesheli saw a group of uninvited guests breaking in, her eyelids twitched and her heart panicked. She immediately shouted, "Who let you in?"

Eunuch Li bowed and said, "Your Majesty, we are ordered to capture Qian Ling. Please come to Jingren Palace."

Little Hesheli's heart skipped a beat. When Qianling was taken away, her feet felt cold. She had never expected that they would find out this place so quickly.

In Chengqian Palace, when the Imperial Concubine heard that little Hesheli was about to be taken to Jingren Palace, she stood up and said, "I am now in charge of the Phoenix Seal. Let's go and see what's going on."

-

When Xiao Hesheli and others arrived at Jingren Palace, they smelled a strong smell of blood. Then they discovered that the Imperial Noble Consort had arrived earlier than them and was now standing next to Kangxi.

For some reason, little Hesheli felt even more uneasy.

With a "thump", as expected, as soon as she arrived, Qian Ling was forced to her knees on the ground.

Qian Ling's whole body was tense, but she was still trying to remain calm: "Your servant Qian Ling pays respects to His Majesty."

The Imperial Concubine has learned the whole story: "Bold and brave, tell me the truth, why did you want to murder Concubine Xi!"

"No slave!"

"No, Cui'er has confessed everything. You knew that Concubine Xi loved flowers the most and that the bouquets in the bedroom would be changed almost every day. You instructed her to sprinkle trumpet creeper pollen on the petals, and now you still refuse to tell the truth!"

"Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine, I am innocent. How could I possibly harm Imperial Concubine Xi? I have never even seen her. Besides, where can I get Trumpet Creeper pollen? Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine, please understand!"

At this time, Liang Jiugong walked in from outside, followed by a trembling eunuch. He said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Hospital has lost nearly one or two ounces of trumpet creeper pollen. This is Mr. Li who is in charge of guarding the herbs."

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. It is my fault that I embezzled the one hundred taels of silver given by Qian Ling. Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Li Sheng was so scared that he almost peed himself. He knelt on the ground and couldn't even stand up.

The Imperial Concubine said sternly: "Words are not enough, what evidence do you have?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I have it. This is Qianling's handkerchief, and there are also banknotes!"

At this time, Eunuch Li also said: "Your Highness, I just found a paper bag in Qianling's room, and it did contain trumpet creeper pollen."

With a loud bang, Little Hesheli slapped Qianling in the face: "Slut, you are so bold that you dared to murder the imperial concubine and you still refuse to admit your guilt!"

Qian Ling was slapped to the ground and wanted to say something, but when she saw the word "Crown Prince" in the threatening shape of Little Hesheli's mouth, she knelt down and confessed: "I plead guilty!"

The imperial concubine looked at the master and servant and sneered in her heart, as if unintentionally: "A small servant may not have such courage. Your Majesty, there may be a mastermind behind this." She glanced at Little Hesheli: "Sister Hesheli, you are Qianling's master, you don't know everything, right? Or, did you order it?"

The Imperial Noble Consort glanced at Kangxi, who had remained silent. This matter was so obvious that Kangxi must have already seen through it.

Now little Hesheli obviously wants the palace maid to take the blame. She would not be surprised if this matter was exposed. After all, Concubine Xi's fetus is now saved, and the Emperor will not punish her too harshly. Perhaps he will confine little Hesheli for failing to discipline her. However, the Imperial Concubine thought in her heart that from now on, little Hesheli would be really useless.

"Don't slander me, Imperial Concubine. I would never dare to murder Imperial Concubine Xi!" She looked at Kangxi and cried in grievance: "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"
