Jiang Huimin stared at her, and Xia Qing was taken aback by her.

"Okay." Jiang Huimin agreed to her directly, Xia Qing was very surprised, she thought Jiang Huimin would refuse.

"Just before you go, I have a few questions for you."

Xia Qing looked at her suspiciously.

"After you were poisoned that day, I brought the chopsticks you used and had someone inspect them myself. Guess what the result was. The silver maker confirmed that they were silver chopsticks. I even specially found arsenic|shuang Confirmed, the chopsticks changed color in an instant when they were covered with arsenic|scent." She lowered her head and stared at Xia Qing, "Do you have any explanation?"

Xia Qing looked at her for a long time, and finally said softly: "The chopsticks are indeed pure silver chopsticks, Concubine Jiang did not fake it."

Jiang Huimin seemed to have expected her answer, so she calmed down and asked, "Then why didn't you test the poison that day?"

"Because the side dishes were not poisonous that night."

"What?" Jiang Huimin felt incredible now, "Then why, why..."

"I prepared the poison myself early in the morning and hid it in my nails. Before the imperial doctor tested the poison with silver needles, he checked my pulse. I sprinkled some powder on the brocade handkerchief. When the imperial doctor checked the pulse through the brocade handkerchief, the poison was on it his fingertips."

Jiang Huimin had been suspicious early in the morning, suspecting that Xia Qing herself was involved in this matter, but she never imagined that Xia Qing would come up with such an idea.

"Silver needles are very thin, so when the doctor's hands touched the silver needles, the color quickly changed, and when he took the chopsticks to test the poison, there was not much powder left on his hands, and the chopsticks were not like the silver needles. It's so small, so it's impossible to find the problem at all."

"Then why are you poisoned?"

"Because the poison was in the glass of wine I drank."

"You, you, you..." Jiang Huimin was too angry to say a complete sentence, "Mr. Xia Gui is really amazing." She grabbed Xia Qing by the collar, "Do you know that you are betting your life like this, you Do you know that your life will be gone if the imperial physician comes a moment later, Xia Guiren, Xia Guiren," she shook her head again and again, "I really underestimated you."

Xia Qing pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

Of course she knew that Jiang Huimin was worried about her, and that the other party stopped everything for her, but she still felt that she had done nothing wrong.

She looked up at Jiang Huimin, "Even if my mother doesn't say anything, I still know about Song Chang's presence. She is behind the scenes. If I don't do something, I won't be reconciled."

"You just want to deal with her, so you can come to me. I have plenty of ways to help you deal with it. Why do you do this thing that kills one thousand and hurts eight hundred!" I wanted to ask Xia Qing, but I didn't expect Xia Qing to direct and act on his own, and his life was lost.

"I just can't bear being bullied." Xia Qing's words choked up.

"Okay, okay." Jiang Huimin smiled, "My lord, the first time you and I met, I bullied you a lot, do you want to set me up too?"

"I..." Xia Qing's eyes turned red, tears were about to flow down.

After all, Jiang Huimin still felt sorry for Xia Qing, and said a lot of angry words, she sighed and hugged Xia Qing in her arms. "Of course I know that you hate her very much, but your method is too terrible, you can come to me, why bother to use such a bitter trick."

When she said this, Xia Qing felt a little better.

In fact, she also knew that standing in Jiang Huimin's position, she had more ways to deal with Concubine Jiang, but she wanted to rely on herself and was unwilling to speak to Jiang Huimin.

Xia Qing didn't leave that night, but stayed in Jiang Huimin's palace for a few more nights. With the excuse of illness, Jiang Huimin justly excused her from the daily greetings. Xia Qing lay on the bed every day, except eating and sleeping. It was so boring.

Fortunately, Jiang Huimin occasionally chatted with her to relieve boredom.

One day when Jiang Huimin came back from outside, Xia Qing was sitting there embroidering handkerchiefs, when he looked up and saw that Jiang Huimin's face was not very good-looking.

"Sister, what's the matter?"

"It's not because of Beidi's troubles."

"How much money does the emperor plan to send over this time?"

"This time it's not just money." Jiang Huimin said, "The emperor intends to marry the princess and make a kiss."

Xia Qing was taken aback, and quickly and safely embroidered her handkerchief, "Even though my sister and I don't like to see this kind of thing, it's inevitable. If the emperor thinks so, he must be unable to stop it."

"This group of men only know how to push women out whenever they encounter trouble." Jiang Huimin gritted his teeth in hatred.

Xia Qing put down the needle and thread in his hand, "So what can we do? We are now weak and powerless to stop us. We can only be thankful that my sister and I have no princesses, otherwise we will have to endure the pain of parting."

Mentioning this, Jiang Huimin felt more and more uneasy, she sat aside, sighed and said: "Currently there is only one princess in the palace who is of the right age to marry."

"Who?"

"Jiang Concubine's daughter, Qi and Princess."

Xia Qing's expression immediately became serious.

"A concubine's daughter marries far away, and a concubine's daughter marries far away. The meaning of marriage is naturally different. It seems that she will return soon." Xia Qing said while embroidering needlework.

"That's right." Jiang Huimin thought of it with her, "The emperor means to let the princess get married after the Chinese New Year. It is estimated that her position will be restored after the Chinese New Year. Of course, her father's official position will also be restored."

Xia Qing lowered her head in thought, she actually couldn't calm down, she spent so much energy and risked her life to make her turn over so easily.

After thinking about it, she let out a long sigh: "Forget it, she lost a daughter at least, she is also a woman, I can still understand her in this regard, it can be regarded as God pity her."

"Let her be proud for a while longer." Jiang Huimin said coldly.

The New Year comes when it comes, and fireworks begin to be set off in the palace before the festival.Xia Qing originally wanted to go back to her own palace, but Jiang Huimin refused to let her go. She only said that Xia Qing had studied and wanted her to learn how to manage accounts, so she stayed in the imperial concubine's palace for a long time.

Not only that, she also gave Xia Qing the Furong Hall and a side hall in the middle of her palace. There is a small door in the middle, which makes it easier for the two to come and go.

"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. There will be a family banquet in the palace." Xia Qing lay on Jiang Huimin's bed, feeling a little complicated.

"Well, if you don't like it, just deal with it. The emperor usually leaves after a few drinks. You can sneak away then."

The more the Chinese New Year, the more uncomfortable Xia Qing felt. She always thought of her family. Jiang Huimin seemed to see her thoughts, and put her in his arms, holding her tightly.

The next night, the emperor held a banquet in the palace. All the concubines were dressed in formal attire. Some princes brought their princes, and some princesses brought their princesses.

The emperor's expression was getting old, but even so, he still hugged left and right, two young women surrounded him, Jiang Huimin sat aside coldly, looking at the palace servants below.

This was the first time Xia Qing saw the emperor when she entered the palace, and she felt uncomfortable for a while.

After drinking for three rounds, the emperor became more and more excited, and was already planning to take a few concubines down to rest, when the concubines Rui stood up suddenly.

"Your Majesty, tonight, on New Year's Eve, a family reunion day, concubines will offer a cup to the Emperor."

"En." The emperor replied lazily, drinking a glass of wine.

"Your Majesty, the people of the world are reunited on New Year's Eve. The concubine suddenly remembered the emperor's Qi and the princess. They are still living alone in the princess's house, and they can't even see their own mother."

The emperor let go of the two women at this moment, and lowered his head a little. Obviously, what Concubine Rui said reminded him of something he didn't want to think of.

He put down his wine glass, and said slowly: "I think Concubine Jiang has reformed herself in the confinement palace these days. Now that it's Chinese New Year, let her resume her original concubine title and title, and let her reunite with the princess."
