Lianzhen gradually came to life the next day, her body was extremely weak, and her mind was not very clear. Hengbo saw her eyes slowly turning, just looking around, as if she was looking for someone, with a slightly disappointed expression on her face , only when she was thinking of the emperor, she said softly: "Master, when you were asleep, the emperor came to see you, and sent people to ask you several times, and rewarded you with many things." , and said softly: "The master is still young, and the emperor pampers him like this. There will be a long time in the future, so the master should relax."

Baozhen sniffed lightly, and forced a smile on her face: "Yes, my lord... My lord will definitely add many beautiful little princes and little princesses to the emperor in the future."

Lianzhen didn't speak, but tears gradually filled her beautiful eyes, Hengbo said: "Master hasn't eaten for a long time, the small kitchen has prepared chicken soup porridge, I'll ask them to bring it."

Lian Zhen shook her head, Heng Bo was about to persuade her, when someone came in and replied: "The Royal Concubine sent Aunt Sang Rong over to see the young master."

Hearing this, Lian Zhen struggled as if she was about to sit up, Bao Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, Heng Bo took another big lead pillow, and put it behind her for her to lean on.Sang Rong came in, bowed her knees and saluted, and said: "The imperial concubine misses the young master very much, and has sent her servants here for several times. When the young master wakes up, the servants are relieved."

Lian Zhen lost a lot of blood, her pale lips trembling slightly: "Please trouble... Auntie is thinking about it."

Seeing her like this, Sang Rong felt very sad, stepped forward to tuck the quilt for her, smiled and said softly: "My lord, don't be too sad, so you can take good care of your body."

Lian Zhen murmured: "Imperial Concubine... want you to come and see me?"

Sang Rong was slightly stunned, and said softly: "Yes, the empress is very concerned about the young master. When she heard that something happened last night, she hurried over and stayed here for a long time."

Lian Zhen couldn't help looking at Hengbo, and Hengbo hurriedly said: "At that time, the master was so painful that he lost his mind and made people feel very worried. I see that the empress couldn't bear it, she sat in front of the bed and took care of her, holding the little master's hand. It’s been a long time since I let go.”

Lian Zhen listened, and suddenly burst into tears, Hengbo panicked: "Master..." Lian Zhen said in a low voice but struggling: "Then she... Where is she now? Where is she?"

She said "she" one by one, although it made Sang Rong a little strange, she just thought it was because of her incoherent speech under the pain, and said: "The emperor ordered our empress and the queen to thoroughly investigate the people behind the harm to the young master. I only returned to the palace late last night, and went to Yonghua Palace again this morning."

Lian Zhen was silent, and Sang Rong was afraid that she would be wasted, so she hurriedly said: "Young Master, I will take care of you. If you want to eat anything, if you don't have it here, just send someone to Qingquan Palace."

"Thank you, aunt." Lianzhen looked at Baozhen, Baozhen understood, and hurriedly said: "I will send aunt out."

"Horizontal wave."

Hengbo hurriedly responded, "Master, what else can I order?"

"You... go get some chicken soup."

Hengbo was overjoyed: "Yes, I'll go right away."

"Wait." Lian Zhen calmed down for a moment, and said again: "Wait a minute... If the emperor comes, or... or sends someone, just say that I am asleep and I don't want to see anyone."

"The servant understands."

The imperial concubine didn't sleep well all night, and she woke up early at dawn. Qinzhu saw that her eyes were slightly swollen, and was asking someone to get a hot towel to apply, but Yonghua Palace sent an internal eunuch to pass a message: "Your Majesty, Last night, a court lady died in Ye Tingsi, and the empress asked you to come over." Qin Zhu was startled when she heard that, the imperial concubine's eyes were dark, she couldn't see any emotion, she stood up slowly: "I'll go right away."

The one who died was Yixue, a young maid from Xiefang Palace, who committed suicide with a golden hairpin. When she entered the Yeting Division, she had to take off all the hairpins, rings and jewelry on her body, but she hid a golden hairpin in her belt ahead of time. Here, the sharp gold hairpin accurately pierced her throat, because she had already been tortured and had many scars, so her death was horrific.

When the imperial concubine arrived, the queen was furious, Liu Zhen knelt down and kowtowed, and the guard of Ye Tingsi was dragged down and beaten half to death.Seeing her coming in, the queen's face paled a little. After the two of them greeted each other, the queen said: "Sister, what's the matter? It was checked by the imperial hospital, and there was nothing unusual about the tea that Yuan Bao drank that day, but there was nothing unusual about the tea that Yuan Bao drank that day. I found this under the bed of the dead girl." As he spoke, someone put a large bag of things on the ground, opened it, and found that there were some gold and silver ingots, and some hairpin rings, pearl flowers, etc. , sparkling, dazzling flowers, and a paper bag, which contained a little bit of black powder.

The imperial concubine asked: "What is this?"

Imperial Physician Zhou bowed tremblingly and replied: "Mrs. Hui, this is a kind of supernatural drug called 'Sleep Dream Wuhen'. It has a very light smell. If you only use a little, people will not notice it if you smell it. , will enter a short-term deep sleep state."

A gleam of coldness flashed in the imperial concubine's eyes, and she said lightly: "It seems that this servant girl has done something wrong."

The queen sighed: "It's just that once she died, there is no proof of her death, but how can we continue to investigate." She also said: "A little maid, with limited monthly money, even if she is rewarded by the master, she will not be so rich. There must be something wrong with it."

The imperial concubine looked at the bag of gold and silver, and fell silent, Shutong suddenly said: "That...that jade dragonfly looks familiar, it seems like I've seen it somewhere before."

When she said this, everyone looked at her. Someone had already brought up the jade dragonfly bead flower. Exquisite and dexterous, the wings shake gently, just like the real thing.Ranchun stood beside her, and said "Hey": "I have seen this pearl flower servant before." The queen said: "Oh?"

Ranchun replied: "Thanks to Miss Shutong for reminding me, I just remembered that Miss Qiaoying next to Concubine Min seems to have a pair of pearl flowers like this, and I have seen her wear them once or twice."

The queen asked Shutong: "Then where did you meet?"

Shutong said gruffly: "The servant girl is the same as Sister Ranchun, I have seen Miss Qiaoying wear it before."

The queen glanced at the imperial concubine: "Even if this jade dragonfly belongs to Qiaoying, it cannot be proved that she ordered Yixue."

The imperial concubine said: "Since Concubine Min is involved, the matter is of great importance, we should report everything to the emperor."

The queen smiled and said: "What my sister said is very true, I think so too, let's go to face the saint together."

Seeing the arrival of the empress and imperial concubine Fengjia, Zhao Chengen came down from His Majesty Dan to greet him personally, and went up to greet Qianer: "My servant greets the two empresses."

"What is the emperor doing?"

"The emperor went up and down to see the young master Lian, and then went back to the palace to rest." Zhao Cheng'en said: "Please wait a moment, my lady, the slave will go and report."

The queen understood: "Is someone inside?"

Zhao Chengen didn't answer, but just laughed and said: "Your Majesty, the emperor is not in a good mood today."

The empress snorted softly, but said nothing, she saw Zhao Chengen hurried into the hall, not long after, several young beauties came out, saw them, and knelt down in unison, the imperial concubine watched coldly, saw the eyes of the woman on the far left It was red and swollen, as if she had just cried, and there were faint bruises on the neck, and she couldn't help being slightly stunned, but the queen didn't look at them directly, and went in with her head held high.

The emperor changed his clothes and sat on the kang, with a look of tiredness and impatience in his eyes. The queen reported everything last night in detail, and then sat down quietly. The imperial concubine noticed that there was nothing but some wine There was also a chic fir box, and I couldn't help looking at it a few more times, looking a little absent-minded.

The emperor said: "Yeting Division is full of idiots. If a living person is sent there, she will die so easily! Just dragged out and whipped dozens of times. The punishment is too light. All the guards should be rode to death!" Said He called Zhao Cheng'en: "Go, ask someone to pass on my will, and see who dares to be negligent in the future!"

Recently, his temper has become more and more moody. Although Zhao Chengen has served him for a long time, his feeling of being with the king is like a tiger. Hearing what he said now, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went out to spread the word.The emperor calmed down a little, picked up the jade cup on the table, took a sip of milk wine, and said slowly: "According to the confessions of other people and the things found, the cold medicine mixed with the anti-fetal medicine must be the There is no doubt that the maidservant is dead, but now that she has committed suicide in fear of crime, even a jade dragonfly cannot prove that Concubine Min ordered someone to kill Concubine Lian."

The queen laughed and said: "Yes, if Concubine Min knew, she would definitely not admit it."

The emperor looked at the imperial concubine: "Binglun, what do you think?"

The imperial concubine said: "The concubine also feels that this matter may not be caused by Concubine Min, but she is also the most suspected..." After finishing speaking, she remained silent.

The emperor was silent for a while, and said: "Tonight, you take a few stern-mouthed servants and go to Yijing Palace to search the palace. Remember, be quiet and don't leak the news. I am waiting for your news."

The queen and the imperial concubine looked at each other: "The concubine obeys the order."

"Your Majesty." The Imperial Concubine said: "Since it has been found out that Yixue tampered with the medicine, then the rest of Xiefang are innocent, can you release them from the Yeting Division and go back to work separately."

"Such trivial matters, you can decide on your own." The emperor waved his hand: "I'm tired, you all go down."

"Yes, the concubine is retiring."

As soon as he came out of Ye Tingsi, a small eunuch came over with a brand-new imperial hospital uniform and knelt down in front of Li Mao: "Princess Li, you have been wronged. You sent it, let the slaves take you back to Tai Hospital."

Li Mao's eyes were dull, and his handsome face was full of haggardness. He looked down at his dirty clothes, reached out to take them, stood there for a long time, and suddenly said softly: "Elder-in-law, can you Can't find a place for me to change my clothes, I...I want to see Little Master Lian."

The eunuch smiled and said, "This is easy, you follow me."

After changing his clothes, Li Mao thanked the eunuch, and went straight to Xiefang Palace. Lianzhen had just eaten some bird's nest porridge, and leaned on the bed to rest. He heard her begging to see her outside, and ordered her to come in.As soon as Li Mao entered the bedroom, he knelt down on the ground and wept bitterly: "Li Mao is incompetent, he failed to keep the young master's dragon fetus, Li Mao is ashamed of the young master!"

"It's none of your business." A sad smile appeared on the corner of Lian Zhen's lips, and her voice was low: "Mr. Li, you don't have to blame yourself, get up."

But Li Mao refused to get up, just prostrate on the ground, sobbing unable to make a sound, Baozhen saw him so sad, thinking of how hard it was for Lian to be pregnant with a dragon fetus, and she just disappeared, it hurt even more, her eye circles immediately turned red , tears rolling down.Hengbo was secretly anxious, gave Baozhen a hard look, and said in his mouth: "Doctor Li, our little master knows your heart. Now the little master is weak, and the emperor has ordered her to take care of her. No one is allowed to take care of her." To disturb her cleanliness, you'd better go back to the Tai Hospital first, and come to greet the little master another day."

Li Mao wept and said: "I feel that my sin deserves death, and I have the audacity to come here today. I just ask the little master to give me a chance to redeem my sins, so that I can continue to collect fragrances and prescribe the pulse for the young master. Serving the medicine, I beg the little master to be gracious and complete."

Lian Zhen said: "I agree, you get up first."

Li Mao straightened up slowly, went to kneel on his own, refusing to stand up, Lian Zhen looked at her, feeling very sorry in his heart: "Princess Li, I heard that they took you to the Yeting Division, you must have suffered A lot of suffering, right?"

Li Mao took the handkerchief from Baozhen, wiped away the tears on his face, forced a smile and said, "No, I didn't suffer anything, I was just locked up, but the others..." Speaking of this, Lian was really worried , then changed the subject: "Weichen still has some things to say, and I want to talk to the young master alone."

Lian really thought she was serious, and her heart sank slightly, so she nodded, Hengbo and Baozhen saluted, and then withdrew.Lian Zhen said: "What do you want to tell me?"

"My lord was framed this time, and the empress and imperial concubine are investigating the murderer under the order of the emperor. Although the truth is still unknown, I still decided to tell my lord some things," Li Mao said. Here, the head hangs down, and the words become a little hesitant: "I can inherit my father's business and come to the Imperial Hospital to make offerings. It is all because of the grace of the imperial concubine. I also know that the imperial concubine has always taken good care of the young master."

"Imperial concubine?" Lian Zhen's heart was suspended in the air, and she sat up and said anxiously: "Why did you mention her? What's wrong with her?" When she said it, her voice gradually trembled, showing that she was extremely nervous .

Li Mao closed his eyes, and said in his heart: "The reason why the little master hurt the dragon fetus is because someone mixed the 'cold medicine' ingredient in the anti-fetal medicine. The cold medicine is extremely difficult to mix. This minister happens to be good at making this kind of medicine." , and has been providing this medicine to the imperial concubine."

"What?" Lian Zhenji was horrified: "She...what does she want this medicine for?"

"She used it for herself." Li Mao swallowed with difficulty, and said in a low voice: "But the palace is dangerous, and I am not sure whether she will use this medicine for other purposes, so today I risked my life to come here to inform the young master. This matter."

Lian Zhen stared straight at her, her mind was full of thoughts, but her body gradually weakened, and she slowly leaned on the pillow.
