The evil spirits all over the world love me very much [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 50 The Abandoned Prince
Because too many concubines have been imprisoned in a place like the Leng Palace, unjust cases and tragedies happen from time to time, especially in this palace that has been handed down from a hundred years ago, where countless concubines spend the rest of their lives alone, mourning and growing old.
Therefore, over time, even in summer, the vicinity of Jinrong Pavilion will be damp and cool, as if the sun will never shine.
Indeed, just as the two little maids said, this place is really not for people, it’s no different from a haunted house, there are weeds taller than people everywhere, and large creepers are winding and crisscrossing, covering the place tightly In fact, from a distance, it looks like the castle of vampires in western mythology, with an unpleasant smell of blood everywhere.
After the Spring Festival, these two days began to warm up, but there was still a biting chill everywhere in Jinrong Pavilion.
Yu He stepped over the floor tiles covered with slippery moss, hugged his body tightly and walked cautiously towards Jinrong Pavilion.
The rain became lighter, and the thunder gradually rolled away.
The sound of the wind continued, it sounded like a woman's mournful cry, stimulating Yu He's fragile cerebral cortex one after another.
The door of the side courtyard behind Jinrong Pavilion was ajar, Yu He walked over quietly, put his ear on the door and listened to the movement inside.
It turned out that the mournful cry was not an illusion, but real.
Yu He collected himself, raised his hand and knocked on the door.
But no one responded for a long time.
The crying continued, intermittently, if there was nothing, it was the kind of tone mixed with grievance, pain and resentment, and occasionally a few faint cries of the baby were interspersed.
Yu He could hear goosebumps all over his body.
He rubbed his arms, and called out politely: "Your Majesty, the servant has come in—"
Still no one answered him.
Yu He pushed open the rotten wooden door, followed by an unpleasant "creak", and then a strong smell of blood came out of his nostrils.
Subconsciously, Yu He raised his hand to cover his nose, then looked inside with the extremely weak candlelight.
"Ah, empress!" He screamed, put down the lantern in his hand and ran over.
There was a little maid lying next to her, she didn't know whether she was dead or fainted, her forehead was still bleeding, she was leaning against the bed, tightly clutching a piece of pink satin cloth.
And next to him was Lin Zhaoyi who was lying on the couch and crying bitterly while supporting the bedside, and beside Lin Zhaoyi lay a naked baby, covered in bruises and covered in pieces of fetal membranes, crying I have no strength.
It was only then that Yu He realized that today was also the day when Lin Zhaoyi gave birth, and it was a coincidence that he and Concubine De just had a day together.
And Lin Zhaoyi was lying there, the sheets were already soaked in blood, and she was swollen from soaking, her whole body was almost collapsed, and there was nothing left but to breathe.
Yu He stood on the side rubbing his hands, trying to help him, but he felt bad, and if he didn't help, it wouldn't be good either.
He simply helped the little girl up first, sniffed her breath, and found that she was still alive but just unconscious, so he dragged her to a chair beside her and put her away, then went back to check on Lin Zhaoyi's condition.
"Give it back to me..." In the silence, I heard Lin Zhaoyi say such a sentence again in an angry manner.
"What, what do I give you?" Yu He asked.
Lin Zhaoyi raised her head slowly, looking at the pink satin fabric beside the bed, she seemed to be grabbing it with the last bit of strength.
She lovingly held the piece of silk in her bosom, but there was a painful expression on her face:
"My son, give it back to me..."
As she spoke, she clutched the piece of silk tightly and lay down beside the bed, tears streaming down her face.
Yu He glanced at the little baby next to him in surprise, and found that it was a girl, he hurriedly said, "Ma'am, did you remember wrongly, your child is here, she is a cute little princess."
"No!" Lin Zhaoyi cried bitterly.
She seemed to be in great pain, but her whole body was drenched in sweat. She was shivering from the cold at the moment. She patted the edge of the bed weakly and shook her head: "This is not my child. My son was taken away by Concubine Xi Shu... ..."
As she spoke, she lowered her head helplessly, and her tears stained dark marks on the quilt: "I have nothing left, why do I still want to take my son away..."
Seeing her like that, Yu He could only feel his anger rising.
It's Concubine Xi Shu again, it's her again!
Oh shit.
"Then who does this child belong to?" Yu He tried to calm himself down, and asked in a gentle tone as much as possible, for fear of scaring Lin Zhaoyi.
Lin Zhaoyi shook her head: "I don't know."
Her cuff-exposed wrist was covered with bluish-purple strangle marks, and Yu He didn't even realize that all ten of her nails had been pulled out by the roots when she was clutching her hand just now, bleeding profusely, but she didn't seem to care at all. I can't help but think about my son who was taken away.
Suddenly, Yu He suddenly remembered those midwives who were sneakily holding something when he went to Zhaoyang Palace just now. Thinking about it this way, could it be...
Concubine De exchanged her own daughter for Lin Zhaoyi's son? !
Moreover, Lin Zhaoyi said, Concubine Xi Shu also came here just now, so from this point of view, the two of them seem to be in the same group?
I used to think that Concubine De was a good person, but I didn't expect it to be the same.
I heard before that after Ping Wanrong gave birth to a daughter, it was Lin Zhaoyi's turn to be favored, and she was also the distant niece of the Empress Dowager, the public life should be able to live comfortably and comfortably. As a result, look at her miserable appearance So, Yu He really agrees with that sentence:
To survive in the harem, only scheming.
No matter how powerful Ren Lin Zhaoyi's natal family was, she was still framed and reduced to such a situation.
Seeing her crouching sadly beside the bed with her hands clasped, Yu He really felt compassion at that moment.
He quickly ran to the side and picked up the little maid who was still in a coma, and woke her up among those who pinched her.
The little girl seemed to be a loyal protector of her lord, as soon as she woke up she yelled to find her master.
Yu He originally thought that the traitorous concubine was just snatching her child away, but the little maid cried and cried, and Yu He finally understood——
Concubine Xi Shu brought a midwife over just now, and Lin Zhaoyi was afraid that they would poison her child again, so she refused to do so. As a result, the two of them put her on the bed together, tied her hands, and tortured her to give birth. But she just kept holding back.
So Concubine Xi Shu simply put on the torture instrument and pulled out ten of her nails. She really couldn't stand the pain, and one of them, unable to hold back, gave birth to the child.
After the birth, when Concubine Xi Shu saw that it was a boy, she immediately ordered the midwife to take the baby away. Lin Zhaoyi wanted to snatch it back, but she had no strength at all, so she could only watch her son being taken away by her.
And not long after, the baby girl was brought back to her.
"I consider myself worthy of the royal family, worthy of anyone, why do you still treat me like this..." Lin Zhaoyi grabbed the piece of cloth wrapping her son just now, her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Yu He watched, shook his head, and then told Xiao Qi to help Lin Zhaoyi up first, put the baby girl down, and then boil water for her to prepare clean clothes.
Lin Zhaoyi gritted her teeth tightly, her clenched hands were still trembling slightly.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you." After a lot of thinking, Yu He finally said this.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhaoyi immediately raised her head to look at Yu He.
She only remembered that this little eunuch was the one who stole the limelight on the emperor's birthday. She didn't know his character, and she didn't even have time to think about whether he had colluded with Concubine Xi Shu, but when this hopeful straw appeared , I grabbed it without hesitation.
Then, Yu He saw Lin Zhaoyi climbed down from the bed, seemed to use up the last bit of strength to support her scarred body, and then slowly kowtowed her head.
She raised her head, her face wet with tears.
"I can don't want anything, but I just want my son, as long as I get my son back, I am willing to live in the cold palace for the rest of my life, or... cut off my position and send it out of the palace to become an ordinary person, I am willing."
As she spoke, she kowtowed again.
But Yu He grabbed her suddenly, and asked in a puzzled way:
"Why don't you want something that belongs to you."
Hearing this, Lin Zhaoyi was obviously taken aback, then she slowly raised her head, with tears in her eyes, staring closely at Yu He.
That's right, these are my own things, why don't I want them, why don't I give them away to others.
Those things that originally belonged to me but were taken away by the villain's design must be recovered bit by bit, all of them——
----------
The next day, the hall was full of joy.
Concubine De was holding the child and sat on the seat granted by the emperor to accept congratulations from other concubines, but she never showed any smile on her face.
Concubine Xi Shu hurried over with a group of maids holding gifts, with a warm smile like spring breeze on her face.
"I heard that my sister gave birth to a prince last night. I was so happy that I didn't fall asleep all night. I came to visit my sister this morning."
Concubine De looked up at her, and forced a smile: "Thank you, sister, for your concern."
Looking at the peaceful appearance of the harem, the emperor felt very happy:
"Early this morning, Eunuch Xiao sent over the words selected by Xuan Si, let's see which one I like."
As he spoke, he handed over the word selection book in his hand.
The concubines on the side couldn't help but follow along to watch.
But Concubine De was always lacking in interest, she just flipped through a few pages and was not in the mood to read again, so she could only smile and said: "It's up to the emperor to decide."
"According to my concubine, the word 'Zhao' is not bad. The fourteenth prince was born in the rainy night and ugly. 'Zhao' is also a character for fire, which is a homonym of the word 'Zhao'. It means that the light shines on the earth and dispels the dark clouds and rain."
Concubine Xi Shu raised her bright red lips and proposed.
"Ruozhao, shining on the earth like the sun." The emperor chewed the name carefully, and after a while, he smiled happily, "It's really good, then I'll call it Ruozhao, give it the name Rongchen, what does my concubine think?"
Concubine De secretly clenched her hands, and forced a smile: "It's fine if the emperor likes it."
Ruozhao, the word Zhao always makes me think of Lin Zhaoyi and the baby boy in my arms. He Lin Zhaoyi was carved out of the same mold.
Concubine De swallowed nervously, and raised her eyes to look at Concubine Xi Shu indistinctly.
She is teasing the little prince, she looks gentle and virtuous, but to be honest, Concubine De is a little scared now, after all, she has caught her and traded her own daughter for someone else's son, if this matter is If others know about it, it is a serious crime to be beheaded.
"Look at the facial features of this little prince, he is exactly the same as the emperor." Concubine Xi Shu hugged the little prince Ruo Zhao from Concubine De's arms and showed it to the emperor.
There had been no heirs in the palace for a long time, and he was a lovely little prince. Naturally, the emperor loved him very much, and he would not let go of him when he held him in his arms.
When she was happy, she immediately rewarded Concubine De with a hundred taels of silver, a box of jewelry, and a hundred bolts of silk and satin.
Yu He was also led by the crown prince early in the morning to congratulate Concubine De, but to be honest, ever since he knew that Concubine De and Concubine Xi Shu were in the same group, he felt a little out of touch, but he just thought it was Ming Min. It's just that her biological mother never exposed her.
In fact, even if he told the truth himself, the emperor would not believe it at all, unless there is no proof or evidence... unless he confesses his relatives with blood.
But in this era, there is no such thing as a blood test, so even if he brought it up, he wouldn't believe it.
"Huh? What is this?"
Just when everyone was immersed in the joy of the royal family having an heir, a question interrupted everyone's thoughts.
I saw Concubine Xi Shu touching the little prince's swaddle in her hand, and then took out a jade pendant from the little prince's arms.
Everyone quickly looked over curiously.
At first, everyone thought it was a token gifted by Concubine De to their son, and they all stepped forward to see the real face, but unexpectedly, they saw the emperor's face change slightly, so they didn't dare to go forward again.
The emperor took the jade pendant over and over and examined it carefully. At this moment, Concubine De, who had been silent, turned pale. She even subconsciously stood up, tightly clutching the handkerchief in her hand, her hands trembling non-stop.
Just like Lin Zhaoyi whose son was taken away that night.
Yu He looked at this posture, but it was a bit unbelievable.
But it became clear in an instant.
It turned out to be waiting here.
"I remember, this is the jade pendant I bestowed on Lin Zhaoyi, why is it here with you..." the emperor squeezed the jade pendant tightly and asked in a fairly good tone.
Everyone looked at Concubine De in unison, only to see her pale face, cold sweat dripping from her forehead, her whole body was shaking non-stop, and her eyes were full of fear.
She looked like she was really, really scared.
So what is she afraid of.
Concubine Xi Shu hugged the little prince Ruozhao, looked at him, then at Concubine De, and said in feigned surprise: "Your Majesty, look, Ruozhao's eyes are really similar to Lin Zhaoyi's." .”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yu He suddenly realized.
Just like Concubine Xi Shu used words to coax Lin Zhaoyi back then, she also coaxed Concubine De in the same way, and made a trick to wait for her to obediently jump down——
"Earlier, I heard that the imperial physician said that this time Lin Zhaoyi was definitely pregnant with a boy. Last night, when I heard that she gave birth to a princess and a concubine, I felt strange that she was still here. Now that I think about it carefully, there seems to be many things wrong."
The prince in her arms began to cry non-stop, and Concubine Xi Shu hurriedly comforted the little baby with a loving face.
"The concubine also heard yesterday that there were screams from Jinrong Pavilion where Lin Zhaoyi lived, yelling 'give it back to me'." At this time, another concubine also came out and echoed.
"Give it back to me?" Concubine Xi Shu carefully chewed these three words.
Then, she looked up at Concubine De who was completely immobile in fright: "What do you give her back?"
Concubine De opened her mouth slightly, her pupils constricted violently.
"This matter...is it true?" the emperor hesitated.
Concubine De quickly shook her head: "No, this is the concubine's son!"
The emperor pondered for a moment, then waved his hand: "Xuan Lin Zhaoyi sees you."
After hearing this, Concubine De collapsed on the chair as if she had lost her strength.
Not long after, Lin Zhaoyi was brought over from Jinrong Pavilion.
I haven't seen her in half a month, she has lost a lot of weight, her cheeks are sunken, her complexion is sallow, especially after she just gave birth and got cold, she is getting weaker and weaker, her steps are swaying, as if a gust of wind can blow her down .
Yu He looked at him worriedly, and wanted to step forward to help her, but felt that this was too far away, so he could only watch her walk in step by step, and slowly kneel on the hall.
Seeing her like this, the emperor really couldn't bear it, but he couldn't forgive her when he thought that she had done so many unconscionable things in order to win favor.
He simply turned around not to look at her.
The servant girl, Xiaoqi, was holding Concubine De's daughter, and was slowly rocking her body to coax the baby to sleep.
After all, blood is thicker than water, and when he saw his daughter Concubine De, he couldn't sit still, and even couldn't wait to lean over to have a look at her.
"Lin Zhaoyi, tell yourself that the baby in Xiaoqi's arms was born to you?" the emperor asked coldly with his hands behind his back.
Lin Zhaoyi shook her head: "No."
"So, which one is your child?"
Lin Zhaoyi's face was stern, and it seemed that it had been a century before she slowly stretched out her horrible finger to point at the baby in Concubine Xi Shu's arms:
"That is my son."
"You're talking nonsense!" Concubine De became anxious and jumped up against the case.
Now it is absolutely impossible to admit that I cheated. This is really a crime of losing my head.So I can only bite myself to death, and I definitely didn't do such a thing.
As for Lin Zhaoyi, she didn't seem to be in a hurry to expose Concubine Xi Shu, she just knelt there very calmly, and she answered whatever was asked.
Because the eunuch named Xiao Lizi said last night that Concubine Xi Shu was originally a relative, a concubine whom the Empress Dowager loved very much, and there was no good result in confronting her head-on, and now everyone has no evidence, even if the emperor accuses him, he will not believe it. He now only believes what he sees.
So I asked her not to worry, step by step, collect evidence, and take her time.
"Since you all said that this is not your child, then it is someone's wild species, so it was thrown out and chopped up."
As he said that, the emperor waved his hand, as if he didn't want to continue this matter, he turned around and was about to leave.
But these words are tantamount to giving Concubine De a blow to the head.
The emperor said that he would throw his daughter out and chop it up.
Even Lin Zhaoyi, who was kneeling aside, looked at the little baby with some concern.
Even if she is a girl, even her own mother would not recognize her, but she is innocent after all, how can a baby bear the fault of an adult.
Immediately, two little eunuchs ran up to snatch the baby girl from Xiaoqi's arms.
After all, Xiaoqi was kind-hearted, how could she have the heart to see the child die in vain, so she desperately protected the little baby and dragged it with the two eunuchs.
"She's just a baby, how could you be so cruel to her!" Xiaoqi cried.
"The emperor's order! What's wrong with the baby!" The eunuch pushed her hard, and with the other hand, he grabbed the baby girl's arm and pulled it out.
The little baby may have been hurt by being dragged, and he was crying heart-piercingly.
In the end, Xiaoqi was no match for the strength of the two eunuchs, and she was pushed to the ground at once, and the baby in her arms was snatched away.
At this time, Concubine De, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up and rushed directly to the two eunuchs, tearfully snatching the little baby back and holding it tightly in her arms.
The mournful cries hovered over the main hall, moving everyone who heard it.
Yu He sighed at the side and shook his head: "Hey, why bother."
"It's mine, this is my daughter..." Concubine De bit her lower lip, hugged her daughter tightly in her arms, and slowly knelt down on the ground.
The emperor took a deep breath: "You finally admitted it?"
Concubine Xi Shu on the side sneered, and did not forget to stir up the flames: "I said something strange about this, and unexpectedly it really hit the mark."
At this moment, Concubine De suddenly turned her head to look at Concubine Xi Shu, and slowly shook her head: "It's you, you told me that you want me to exchange my daughter for Lin Zhaoyi's son, didn't you teach me that?"
Concubine De was also stupid, she admitted without hesitation.
Concubine Xi Shu seemed to have heard some big joke: "Sister, you said that I encouraged you. If you don't say some things, everyone understands in your heart. Is there any benefit for you to give birth to a prince? Why should I Do you want to spend all your time urging you to trade your own daughter for someone else's son?"
"You are presumptuous!" As soon as the words fell, there was a loud noise.
Everyone trembled in fright, and hurriedly looked for their reputation.
The emperor Longyan was furious and directly lifted the table. He raised his hand and pointed at Concubine De angrily, frowning and staring in a terrifying way:
"Concubine Shu is so clever that she easily saw through your tricks, so you just bite back and say that you were ordered by her?!"
"It's not a concubine!" Concubine De became anxious when she heard this.
"You still say no?" The emperor was furious, "It's not why Lin Zhaoyi's child is here with you, it's not why you refused to admit it?!"
Yu He rolled his eyes, he felt that the emperor was really hopeless.
Concubine De bit her lower lip tightly, wanting to argue, but she couldn't argue, the emperor would no longer believe her, because she had indeed exchanged someone else's child for her own, and once she did, she couldn't argue anymore.
"Okay, take her down, I don't want to see her again." The emperor waved his hand as a signal.
Concubine De was just indifferent, she didn't struggle, but protected her little daughter with her hands, and was taken down by several young eunuchs.
"And you, go down with your son in your arms."
Lin Zhaoyi took her son and watched, the big empty hole in her heart was finally filled.
"Did you name it?" She asked softly.
"Get up, it's called Ruozhao, the emperor bestowed the word Rongchen." Xiao Dafu covered his mouth and smiled, "Hurry up and thank the emperor."
Lin Zhaoyi smiled and looked towards the emperor.
"No, I can't bear it." Throwing such a sentence coldly, the emperor turned and left the hall.
The smile froze on the face almost instantly, but soon, Lin Zhaoyi calmed down a little.
She looked at Yu He who was still standing aside, nodded slightly, and left with his son in her arms——
----------
Ming Min had been sitting in the Changqing Palace for more than an hour, and began to whimper and cry there, and then began to think about life by the moonlight.
The fact that Concubine De secretly replaced the prince quickly fermented in the palace. These days, people's words are terrifying, and some people even analyzed that it was Concubine De and Lin Zhaoyi who jointly wanted to frame Concubine Xi Shu, but the car overturned.
Concubine De has now been imprisoned in Zhaode Courtyard, a small shabby house comparable to Jinrong Pavilion, if not for Concubine Xi Shu's false persuasion, Ming Min's title of princess would almost be lost.
Ruo Ting walked up and down the hall with his hands behind his back, frowning.
Seeing him like this, Yu He comforted him: "Your Highness and Princess, don't worry, we can always figure out a way, as long as De Concubine Empress is really encouraged by others, then we won't be afraid."
Ruoting frowned: "I'm afraid that this traitorous concubine will target my concubine mother in the future."
Yu He took a deep breath, and seriously questioned Ruoting: "It will definitely hit the imperial concubine."
"Then tell me, what should I do, we really have nothing to do with her?" Ruoting slapped the table angrily.
Yu He rested his chin and looked at Ming Min who was still crying. He was really afraid that she would break her body from crying. If something went wrong with crying, wouldn't Shao Mingmin in that world also suffer along with her?
He began to think carefully about what Ruoting's ghost had said at that time, it seemed that Concubine Yu was framed for having adultery with which prince, which one...
Yu He slapped his forehead.
By the way, it's Yin Chixue!
Since this is the case, why not just follow the plan and ask her to go with her instead.
Thinking about it, Yu He turned his head and ran outside.
"Little Lizi! Where are you going?" Ruoting ran out after him.
"I have a solution." Throwing such a sentence, Yu He ran away without a trace.
It was already past one o'clock in the morning when we arrived at Yin Chixue's mansion, the ignorant knock on the door aroused dissatisfaction with the servants in charge of the night watch at home, and opened the door cursingly.
"Aren't you...?" Looking at Yu He who was out of breath, the servant thought it looked familiar.
Isn't this the one who won his underpants by playing chess two days ago?
Yu He also ignored him, pushed him away and went straight to Yin Chixue's bedroom.
Yin Chixue was falling asleep, but she suddenly felt a strange suffocation in her sleep, as if a huge boulder weighed heavily on her body.
He opened his eyes suddenly, facing a pair of shining pupils.
Startled, he raised his hand and knocked the unknown object to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Yin Chixue hurriedly got out of bed and lit the candle lamp with a painful curse, only to find that the one lying on the ground mourning and crying was actually Yu He.
"What are you, why are you lying here." Yin Chixue asked shamelessly.
"Why am I lying here, don't you have an AC number in your heart?"
Yin Chixue suppressed her laughter, and hurriedly helped Yu He up from the ground: "Who told you to lie on other people at night, I thought you were recruiting a thief."
After finishing speaking, he quickly touched Yu He's little butt: "It doesn't hurt from the fall, does it?"
Yu He opened his hand and glared at him: "Try to get you off the bed."
Yin Chixue hurried over to help Yu He put on the quilt: "But why are you here so late?"
It's good not to mention it, but when it is mentioned, Yu He feels extremely unhappy.
"Have you heard about Concubine De's exchanging her daughter for Lin Zhaoyi's son the day before yesterday?"
Yin Chixue nodded: "It's spread all over the palace, no one knows about it."
"Do you know who did it?"
Yin Chixue felt that this question was a bit strange: "Isn't that what Concubine De did?"
Yu He shook his head: "Actually, I went to the Jinrong Pavilion to meet Lin Zhaoyi on the night that Concubine De was going to be offered."
"and then."
"Lin Zhaoyi said it all. It was Concubine Xi Shu who came to take away her son and the jade pendant given to her by the emperor at that time."
Yin Chixue patted his little head, and said with a smile: "Lin Zhaoyi's spirit became a little abnormal after being thrown into the cold palace. Just trust her words. It was Concubine Xi Shu who exposed her at that time, so she must have a grudge. .”
Yu He looked at Yin Chixue with a mentally handicapped expression, curled his lips:
"Sure enough, that sentence is correct. It's not that one family does not enter the other family. You and your low-intelligence emperor brother are really exactly the same."
"What did you say?" Yin Chixue raised an eyebrow.
"Do you just like Concubine Xi Shu that much? Don't you think she is beautiful? Superficial."
Yin Chixue pinched Yu He's cheeks: "Then why did you insist that she did it again? Is there any evidence?"
"No." Then Yu He smiled mysteriously, "So we need to create evidence."
Seeing Yu He's malicious smile, Yin Chixue felt a shudder running down his back: "You, what kind of bad idea did you come up with?"
Yu He waved at Yin Chixue, motioning him to bring his ears closer.
"I want you to commit adultery with Concubine Yu..."
Yin Chixue's expression gradually turned cold, he was a little unbelievable, even suspicious of life.
"You...did you go to Jinrong Pavilion, and you were also infected with madness by Lin Zhaoyi?"
"You were the ones I saw. You didn't see how miserable Lin Zhaoyi was that night, and her maid Xiaoqi also said that it was Concubine Xi Shu who went over and warned her."
Yu He took a deep breath, he really felt chest tightness and shortness of breath when mentioning this treacherous concubine.
"Why is it that she is the first to discover something strange every time, because she was the one who planned this incident. The concubine De concubine is kind-hearted. In order to keep her daughter, she risked being beheaded and had to recognize each other. Concubine Shu instigated it first."
"Even so, you can't let Concubine Yu and I do that kind of thing." Yin Chixue stood up, very dissatisfied and a little emotional.
"How could it be possible for you to really do it." Yu He immediately approached Yin Chixue in a fawning manner, and shook Yin Chixue's hand, "But this matter must be done with your help."
Yin Chixue's face darkened again: "Then why don't you find another prince."
"The appearance of other people is not convincing." Yu He said, and winked at him in disgust.
Hearing this sentence, Yin Chixue forced a smile, and he snorted coldly with disdain:
"Since you've covered this point, tell me how you want me to help."
Yu He hooked his fingers: "Come here with your ears."
----------
Ever since Concubine De was thrown into the cold palace, almost all the concubines lived cautiously, for fear of being talked about.
Now all the doors will not go out, and the flowers will not be rewarded. You can embroider for a day just by leaning on the couch.
It seems that he was disturbed by the successive incidents in the harem, and the emperor didn't like to run there. When he had time, he would go to the study and swim in the ocean of knowledge.
Yu He went to Jinrong Pavilion a few more times, secretly brought Lin Zhaoyi some rare spring tribute fruits, and even made small gadgets to make the little prince Ruozhao happy.
Lin Zhaoyi seemed to be in a much better mood, and she looked refreshed.
"Speaking of which, I haven't met you a few times, but since I was imprisoned in Jinrong Pavilion, you are the only one willing to visit me."
Lin Zhaoyi rocked the cradle, looking at the little prince sleeping soundly in the cradle, a slight smile crept onto the corner of her mouth.
"Anyway, the prince doesn't have much to do there. He called me to visit you, empress, and told you to open your mouth if you lack something." Yu He once again brought Ruoting out of the cue, trying to win him popularity.
"His Royal Highness has indeed grown up. If he becomes the throne in the future, then we can feel at ease." Lin Zhaoyi laughed.
"By the way, empress, I want to ask you, at that time Concubine Xi Shu ordered someone to search your bedroom, found out the letter between you and Jin Yuan, do you still keep it?"
Lin Zhaoyi was stunned for a moment, and smiled wryly: "It's my shame, my grievance, of course I have to keep it, and always remind myself that in this deep palace, I can no longer trust others."
After she finished speaking, she added: "Of course, you, His Royal Highness, and my Xiaoqi are exceptions."
"Then can I borrow a slave to take a look?"
Lin Zhaoyi got up slowly after hearing this, took out the crumpled letter from the cabinet and handed it to Yu He.
Yu He opened it, looked at it twice, and asked, "Is this your handwriting?"
Lin Zhaoyi shook her head: "It wasn't written by me, how could it be my handwriting."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Zhaoyi seemed to think of something suddenly, she got up, and took out a few brocade boxes from the cabinet: "This is the anti-abortion tonic that Concubine Xi Shu brought to my palace that day, and there is an inscription written by her on it. , look, does it look like it?"
If a person's appearance can be changed, his character can be changed, but there are only two kinds of things that won't change——
Habits and handwriting.
Yu He carefully compared the two types of himself, and he was basically sure that although he was intentionally changing his writing habits in letters, the structure he had cultivated over the years could never be disguised.
This word comes from the same person—Concubine Xi Shu.
But these are not enough, he wants Concubine Xi Shu to personally admit the mistakes she made.
Just like what he promised Lin Zhaoyi at the time:
"I will help you get back the things that have been taken away by your mother one by one."
Including what was taken away by Ruoting back then, he wanted the treacherous concubine to return it double.

Yin Chixue had been standing outside Concubine Yu's Zhaoxiu Palace for half an hour, and just as he was about to leave in a fit of rage, she saw Yu He running in a hurry.
Look at him in a hurry, as if a dog is chasing him after him.
But take a closer look—
There really was a dog chasing him after him, it was a wolf dog, the one named Niuniu that seemed to be raised by Ruoyin.
"My lord, save me—!" Yu He ran over crying and howling, grabbed Yin Chixue's body and climbed up.
He was riding on Yin Chixue's shoulders, tremblingly looking at this wolf dog that he had met halfway, but ended up looking at him with dislike.
"Niu Niu, sit down." Yin Chixue stretched out his hand, and the wolfdog immediately sat down obediently.
"I don't agree. This is personality discrimination. There are so many eunuchs, why should I only chase after me?" Yu He yelled as he rode on Yin Chixue's neck.
Yin Chixue took him off his shoulders, brought him to his mouth and sniffed:
"Whoever told you to steal the chicken legs from the Imperial Dining Room will chase whoever is not chasing you."
When Yu He heard it, his face instantly blushed, he immediately pushed Yin Chixue away, and turned his head away: "There's no way to steal it."
"Okay, okay, I didn't eat or eat."
Yu He looked around, and after confirming that there were really many people around, he took out a letter from his arms and slipped it into Yin Chixue's hands:
"In a while, you will give this to the imperial concubine."
Yin Chixue took the letter and nodded.
"Remember how ambiguous and ambiguous the performance should be, how lewd and lewd the expression should be, and how perverted and perverted the smile should be."
Yin Chixue almost crushed the letter in his hand: "It's better for you to come."
Yu He gave him a push: "Okay, you go in quickly, remember to come every day, and you must pretend to look around before entering the door."
Yin Chixue curled her lips: "Then what's the benefit of me doing this?"
Yu He thought for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and kissed the back of his hand, and then it was printed on Yin Chixue's face: "There are too many people here, I owe the rest first."
Concubine Xi Shu was enjoying the scenery in the imperial garden with the Holy Mother and the Empress Dowager.
When spring comes, almost overnight, the trees are full of new buds, and the garden is full of flowers. Even the birds that flew to the south for the winter come back with flapping wings, and everywhere is full of vitality.
"You, you have to work harder to keep the emperor. You see, when I was young, I just didn't know how to capture a man's heart. So at that time, I only had the emperor's son. My good sister was framed and killed. It's too early to adopt Lao Jiu, but it's a pity that Lao Jiu..."
As she said that, the Empress Dowager shook her head regretfully: "At this age, I haven't married yet. I finally persuaded him to find a wife, but then ran away with her again."
"That's right, my uncle is very good-looking, and he is also a majestic prince. Why haven't you married yet? Let your old man worry about it."
"Lao Jiu is introverted, and he doesn't like to talk to me, the mother, about things. Sometimes he can't figure out what he is thinking." The empress dowager said, sighing.
"Tell me, is it possible that my uncle has some unspeakable secrets, so he has not been married for so long?"
"What's the unspeakable secret, he doesn't worry about his health
Therefore, over time, even in summer, the vicinity of Jinrong Pavilion will be damp and cool, as if the sun will never shine.
Indeed, just as the two little maids said, this place is really not for people, it’s no different from a haunted house, there are weeds taller than people everywhere, and large creepers are winding and crisscrossing, covering the place tightly In fact, from a distance, it looks like the castle of vampires in western mythology, with an unpleasant smell of blood everywhere.
After the Spring Festival, these two days began to warm up, but there was still a biting chill everywhere in Jinrong Pavilion.
Yu He stepped over the floor tiles covered with slippery moss, hugged his body tightly and walked cautiously towards Jinrong Pavilion.
The rain became lighter, and the thunder gradually rolled away.
The sound of the wind continued, it sounded like a woman's mournful cry, stimulating Yu He's fragile cerebral cortex one after another.
The door of the side courtyard behind Jinrong Pavilion was ajar, Yu He walked over quietly, put his ear on the door and listened to the movement inside.
It turned out that the mournful cry was not an illusion, but real.
Yu He collected himself, raised his hand and knocked on the door.
But no one responded for a long time.
The crying continued, intermittently, if there was nothing, it was the kind of tone mixed with grievance, pain and resentment, and occasionally a few faint cries of the baby were interspersed.
Yu He could hear goosebumps all over his body.
He rubbed his arms, and called out politely: "Your Majesty, the servant has come in—"
Still no one answered him.
Yu He pushed open the rotten wooden door, followed by an unpleasant "creak", and then a strong smell of blood came out of his nostrils.
Subconsciously, Yu He raised his hand to cover his nose, then looked inside with the extremely weak candlelight.
"Ah, empress!" He screamed, put down the lantern in his hand and ran over.
There was a little maid lying next to her, she didn't know whether she was dead or fainted, her forehead was still bleeding, she was leaning against the bed, tightly clutching a piece of pink satin cloth.
And next to him was Lin Zhaoyi who was lying on the couch and crying bitterly while supporting the bedside, and beside Lin Zhaoyi lay a naked baby, covered in bruises and covered in pieces of fetal membranes, crying I have no strength.
It was only then that Yu He realized that today was also the day when Lin Zhaoyi gave birth, and it was a coincidence that he and Concubine De just had a day together.
And Lin Zhaoyi was lying there, the sheets were already soaked in blood, and she was swollen from soaking, her whole body was almost collapsed, and there was nothing left but to breathe.
Yu He stood on the side rubbing his hands, trying to help him, but he felt bad, and if he didn't help, it wouldn't be good either.
He simply helped the little girl up first, sniffed her breath, and found that she was still alive but just unconscious, so he dragged her to a chair beside her and put her away, then went back to check on Lin Zhaoyi's condition.
"Give it back to me..." In the silence, I heard Lin Zhaoyi say such a sentence again in an angry manner.
"What, what do I give you?" Yu He asked.
Lin Zhaoyi raised her head slowly, looking at the pink satin fabric beside the bed, she seemed to be grabbing it with the last bit of strength.
She lovingly held the piece of silk in her bosom, but there was a painful expression on her face:
"My son, give it back to me..."
As she spoke, she clutched the piece of silk tightly and lay down beside the bed, tears streaming down her face.
Yu He glanced at the little baby next to him in surprise, and found that it was a girl, he hurriedly said, "Ma'am, did you remember wrongly, your child is here, she is a cute little princess."
"No!" Lin Zhaoyi cried bitterly.
She seemed to be in great pain, but her whole body was drenched in sweat. She was shivering from the cold at the moment. She patted the edge of the bed weakly and shook her head: "This is not my child. My son was taken away by Concubine Xi Shu... ..."
As she spoke, she lowered her head helplessly, and her tears stained dark marks on the quilt: "I have nothing left, why do I still want to take my son away..."
Seeing her like that, Yu He could only feel his anger rising.
It's Concubine Xi Shu again, it's her again!
Oh shit.
"Then who does this child belong to?" Yu He tried to calm himself down, and asked in a gentle tone as much as possible, for fear of scaring Lin Zhaoyi.
Lin Zhaoyi shook her head: "I don't know."
Her cuff-exposed wrist was covered with bluish-purple strangle marks, and Yu He didn't even realize that all ten of her nails had been pulled out by the roots when she was clutching her hand just now, bleeding profusely, but she didn't seem to care at all. I can't help but think about my son who was taken away.
Suddenly, Yu He suddenly remembered those midwives who were sneakily holding something when he went to Zhaoyang Palace just now. Thinking about it this way, could it be...
Concubine De exchanged her own daughter for Lin Zhaoyi's son? !
Moreover, Lin Zhaoyi said, Concubine Xi Shu also came here just now, so from this point of view, the two of them seem to be in the same group?
I used to think that Concubine De was a good person, but I didn't expect it to be the same.
I heard before that after Ping Wanrong gave birth to a daughter, it was Lin Zhaoyi's turn to be favored, and she was also the distant niece of the Empress Dowager, the public life should be able to live comfortably and comfortably. As a result, look at her miserable appearance So, Yu He really agrees with that sentence:
To survive in the harem, only scheming.
No matter how powerful Ren Lin Zhaoyi's natal family was, she was still framed and reduced to such a situation.
Seeing her crouching sadly beside the bed with her hands clasped, Yu He really felt compassion at that moment.
He quickly ran to the side and picked up the little maid who was still in a coma, and woke her up among those who pinched her.
The little girl seemed to be a loyal protector of her lord, as soon as she woke up she yelled to find her master.
Yu He originally thought that the traitorous concubine was just snatching her child away, but the little maid cried and cried, and Yu He finally understood——
Concubine Xi Shu brought a midwife over just now, and Lin Zhaoyi was afraid that they would poison her child again, so she refused to do so. As a result, the two of them put her on the bed together, tied her hands, and tortured her to give birth. But she just kept holding back.
So Concubine Xi Shu simply put on the torture instrument and pulled out ten of her nails. She really couldn't stand the pain, and one of them, unable to hold back, gave birth to the child.
After the birth, when Concubine Xi Shu saw that it was a boy, she immediately ordered the midwife to take the baby away. Lin Zhaoyi wanted to snatch it back, but she had no strength at all, so she could only watch her son being taken away by her.
And not long after, the baby girl was brought back to her.
"I consider myself worthy of the royal family, worthy of anyone, why do you still treat me like this..." Lin Zhaoyi grabbed the piece of cloth wrapping her son just now, her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Yu He watched, shook his head, and then told Xiao Qi to help Lin Zhaoyi up first, put the baby girl down, and then boil water for her to prepare clean clothes.
Lin Zhaoyi gritted her teeth tightly, her clenched hands were still trembling slightly.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you." After a lot of thinking, Yu He finally said this.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhaoyi immediately raised her head to look at Yu He.
She only remembered that this little eunuch was the one who stole the limelight on the emperor's birthday. She didn't know his character, and she didn't even have time to think about whether he had colluded with Concubine Xi Shu, but when this hopeful straw appeared , I grabbed it without hesitation.
Then, Yu He saw Lin Zhaoyi climbed down from the bed, seemed to use up the last bit of strength to support her scarred body, and then slowly kowtowed her head.
She raised her head, her face wet with tears.
"I can don't want anything, but I just want my son, as long as I get my son back, I am willing to live in the cold palace for the rest of my life, or... cut off my position and send it out of the palace to become an ordinary person, I am willing."
As she spoke, she kowtowed again.
But Yu He grabbed her suddenly, and asked in a puzzled way:
"Why don't you want something that belongs to you."
Hearing this, Lin Zhaoyi was obviously taken aback, then she slowly raised her head, with tears in her eyes, staring closely at Yu He.
That's right, these are my own things, why don't I want them, why don't I give them away to others.
Those things that originally belonged to me but were taken away by the villain's design must be recovered bit by bit, all of them——
----------
The next day, the hall was full of joy.
Concubine De was holding the child and sat on the seat granted by the emperor to accept congratulations from other concubines, but she never showed any smile on her face.
Concubine Xi Shu hurried over with a group of maids holding gifts, with a warm smile like spring breeze on her face.
"I heard that my sister gave birth to a prince last night. I was so happy that I didn't fall asleep all night. I came to visit my sister this morning."
Concubine De looked up at her, and forced a smile: "Thank you, sister, for your concern."
Looking at the peaceful appearance of the harem, the emperor felt very happy:
"Early this morning, Eunuch Xiao sent over the words selected by Xuan Si, let's see which one I like."
As he spoke, he handed over the word selection book in his hand.
The concubines on the side couldn't help but follow along to watch.
But Concubine De was always lacking in interest, she just flipped through a few pages and was not in the mood to read again, so she could only smile and said: "It's up to the emperor to decide."
"According to my concubine, the word 'Zhao' is not bad. The fourteenth prince was born in the rainy night and ugly. 'Zhao' is also a character for fire, which is a homonym of the word 'Zhao'. It means that the light shines on the earth and dispels the dark clouds and rain."
Concubine Xi Shu raised her bright red lips and proposed.
"Ruozhao, shining on the earth like the sun." The emperor chewed the name carefully, and after a while, he smiled happily, "It's really good, then I'll call it Ruozhao, give it the name Rongchen, what does my concubine think?"
Concubine De secretly clenched her hands, and forced a smile: "It's fine if the emperor likes it."
Ruozhao, the word Zhao always makes me think of Lin Zhaoyi and the baby boy in my arms. He Lin Zhaoyi was carved out of the same mold.
Concubine De swallowed nervously, and raised her eyes to look at Concubine Xi Shu indistinctly.
She is teasing the little prince, she looks gentle and virtuous, but to be honest, Concubine De is a little scared now, after all, she has caught her and traded her own daughter for someone else's son, if this matter is If others know about it, it is a serious crime to be beheaded.
"Look at the facial features of this little prince, he is exactly the same as the emperor." Concubine Xi Shu hugged the little prince Ruo Zhao from Concubine De's arms and showed it to the emperor.
There had been no heirs in the palace for a long time, and he was a lovely little prince. Naturally, the emperor loved him very much, and he would not let go of him when he held him in his arms.
When she was happy, she immediately rewarded Concubine De with a hundred taels of silver, a box of jewelry, and a hundred bolts of silk and satin.
Yu He was also led by the crown prince early in the morning to congratulate Concubine De, but to be honest, ever since he knew that Concubine De and Concubine Xi Shu were in the same group, he felt a little out of touch, but he just thought it was Ming Min. It's just that her biological mother never exposed her.
In fact, even if he told the truth himself, the emperor would not believe it at all, unless there is no proof or evidence... unless he confesses his relatives with blood.
But in this era, there is no such thing as a blood test, so even if he brought it up, he wouldn't believe it.
"Huh? What is this?"
Just when everyone was immersed in the joy of the royal family having an heir, a question interrupted everyone's thoughts.
I saw Concubine Xi Shu touching the little prince's swaddle in her hand, and then took out a jade pendant from the little prince's arms.
Everyone quickly looked over curiously.
At first, everyone thought it was a token gifted by Concubine De to their son, and they all stepped forward to see the real face, but unexpectedly, they saw the emperor's face change slightly, so they didn't dare to go forward again.
The emperor took the jade pendant over and over and examined it carefully. At this moment, Concubine De, who had been silent, turned pale. She even subconsciously stood up, tightly clutching the handkerchief in her hand, her hands trembling non-stop.
Just like Lin Zhaoyi whose son was taken away that night.
Yu He looked at this posture, but it was a bit unbelievable.
But it became clear in an instant.
It turned out to be waiting here.
"I remember, this is the jade pendant I bestowed on Lin Zhaoyi, why is it here with you..." the emperor squeezed the jade pendant tightly and asked in a fairly good tone.
Everyone looked at Concubine De in unison, only to see her pale face, cold sweat dripping from her forehead, her whole body was shaking non-stop, and her eyes were full of fear.
She looked like she was really, really scared.
So what is she afraid of.
Concubine Xi Shu hugged the little prince Ruozhao, looked at him, then at Concubine De, and said in feigned surprise: "Your Majesty, look, Ruozhao's eyes are really similar to Lin Zhaoyi's." .”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yu He suddenly realized.
Just like Concubine Xi Shu used words to coax Lin Zhaoyi back then, she also coaxed Concubine De in the same way, and made a trick to wait for her to obediently jump down——
"Earlier, I heard that the imperial physician said that this time Lin Zhaoyi was definitely pregnant with a boy. Last night, when I heard that she gave birth to a princess and a concubine, I felt strange that she was still here. Now that I think about it carefully, there seems to be many things wrong."
The prince in her arms began to cry non-stop, and Concubine Xi Shu hurriedly comforted the little baby with a loving face.
"The concubine also heard yesterday that there were screams from Jinrong Pavilion where Lin Zhaoyi lived, yelling 'give it back to me'." At this time, another concubine also came out and echoed.
"Give it back to me?" Concubine Xi Shu carefully chewed these three words.
Then, she looked up at Concubine De who was completely immobile in fright: "What do you give her back?"
Concubine De opened her mouth slightly, her pupils constricted violently.
"This matter...is it true?" the emperor hesitated.
Concubine De quickly shook her head: "No, this is the concubine's son!"
The emperor pondered for a moment, then waved his hand: "Xuan Lin Zhaoyi sees you."
After hearing this, Concubine De collapsed on the chair as if she had lost her strength.
Not long after, Lin Zhaoyi was brought over from Jinrong Pavilion.
I haven't seen her in half a month, she has lost a lot of weight, her cheeks are sunken, her complexion is sallow, especially after she just gave birth and got cold, she is getting weaker and weaker, her steps are swaying, as if a gust of wind can blow her down .
Yu He looked at him worriedly, and wanted to step forward to help her, but felt that this was too far away, so he could only watch her walk in step by step, and slowly kneel on the hall.
Seeing her like this, the emperor really couldn't bear it, but he couldn't forgive her when he thought that she had done so many unconscionable things in order to win favor.
He simply turned around not to look at her.
The servant girl, Xiaoqi, was holding Concubine De's daughter, and was slowly rocking her body to coax the baby to sleep.
After all, blood is thicker than water, and when he saw his daughter Concubine De, he couldn't sit still, and even couldn't wait to lean over to have a look at her.
"Lin Zhaoyi, tell yourself that the baby in Xiaoqi's arms was born to you?" the emperor asked coldly with his hands behind his back.
Lin Zhaoyi shook her head: "No."
"So, which one is your child?"
Lin Zhaoyi's face was stern, and it seemed that it had been a century before she slowly stretched out her horrible finger to point at the baby in Concubine Xi Shu's arms:
"That is my son."
"You're talking nonsense!" Concubine De became anxious and jumped up against the case.
Now it is absolutely impossible to admit that I cheated. This is really a crime of losing my head.So I can only bite myself to death, and I definitely didn't do such a thing.
As for Lin Zhaoyi, she didn't seem to be in a hurry to expose Concubine Xi Shu, she just knelt there very calmly, and she answered whatever was asked.
Because the eunuch named Xiao Lizi said last night that Concubine Xi Shu was originally a relative, a concubine whom the Empress Dowager loved very much, and there was no good result in confronting her head-on, and now everyone has no evidence, even if the emperor accuses him, he will not believe it. He now only believes what he sees.
So I asked her not to worry, step by step, collect evidence, and take her time.
"Since you all said that this is not your child, then it is someone's wild species, so it was thrown out and chopped up."
As he said that, the emperor waved his hand, as if he didn't want to continue this matter, he turned around and was about to leave.
But these words are tantamount to giving Concubine De a blow to the head.
The emperor said that he would throw his daughter out and chop it up.
Even Lin Zhaoyi, who was kneeling aside, looked at the little baby with some concern.
Even if she is a girl, even her own mother would not recognize her, but she is innocent after all, how can a baby bear the fault of an adult.
Immediately, two little eunuchs ran up to snatch the baby girl from Xiaoqi's arms.
After all, Xiaoqi was kind-hearted, how could she have the heart to see the child die in vain, so she desperately protected the little baby and dragged it with the two eunuchs.
"She's just a baby, how could you be so cruel to her!" Xiaoqi cried.
"The emperor's order! What's wrong with the baby!" The eunuch pushed her hard, and with the other hand, he grabbed the baby girl's arm and pulled it out.
The little baby may have been hurt by being dragged, and he was crying heart-piercingly.
In the end, Xiaoqi was no match for the strength of the two eunuchs, and she was pushed to the ground at once, and the baby in her arms was snatched away.
At this time, Concubine De, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up and rushed directly to the two eunuchs, tearfully snatching the little baby back and holding it tightly in her arms.
The mournful cries hovered over the main hall, moving everyone who heard it.
Yu He sighed at the side and shook his head: "Hey, why bother."
"It's mine, this is my daughter..." Concubine De bit her lower lip, hugged her daughter tightly in her arms, and slowly knelt down on the ground.
The emperor took a deep breath: "You finally admitted it?"
Concubine Xi Shu on the side sneered, and did not forget to stir up the flames: "I said something strange about this, and unexpectedly it really hit the mark."
At this moment, Concubine De suddenly turned her head to look at Concubine Xi Shu, and slowly shook her head: "It's you, you told me that you want me to exchange my daughter for Lin Zhaoyi's son, didn't you teach me that?"
Concubine De was also stupid, she admitted without hesitation.
Concubine Xi Shu seemed to have heard some big joke: "Sister, you said that I encouraged you. If you don't say some things, everyone understands in your heart. Is there any benefit for you to give birth to a prince? Why should I Do you want to spend all your time urging you to trade your own daughter for someone else's son?"
"You are presumptuous!" As soon as the words fell, there was a loud noise.
Everyone trembled in fright, and hurriedly looked for their reputation.
The emperor Longyan was furious and directly lifted the table. He raised his hand and pointed at Concubine De angrily, frowning and staring in a terrifying way:
"Concubine Shu is so clever that she easily saw through your tricks, so you just bite back and say that you were ordered by her?!"
"It's not a concubine!" Concubine De became anxious when she heard this.
"You still say no?" The emperor was furious, "It's not why Lin Zhaoyi's child is here with you, it's not why you refused to admit it?!"
Yu He rolled his eyes, he felt that the emperor was really hopeless.
Concubine De bit her lower lip tightly, wanting to argue, but she couldn't argue, the emperor would no longer believe her, because she had indeed exchanged someone else's child for her own, and once she did, she couldn't argue anymore.
"Okay, take her down, I don't want to see her again." The emperor waved his hand as a signal.
Concubine De was just indifferent, she didn't struggle, but protected her little daughter with her hands, and was taken down by several young eunuchs.
"And you, go down with your son in your arms."
Lin Zhaoyi took her son and watched, the big empty hole in her heart was finally filled.
"Did you name it?" She asked softly.
"Get up, it's called Ruozhao, the emperor bestowed the word Rongchen." Xiao Dafu covered his mouth and smiled, "Hurry up and thank the emperor."
Lin Zhaoyi smiled and looked towards the emperor.
"No, I can't bear it." Throwing such a sentence coldly, the emperor turned and left the hall.
The smile froze on the face almost instantly, but soon, Lin Zhaoyi calmed down a little.
She looked at Yu He who was still standing aside, nodded slightly, and left with his son in her arms——
----------
Ming Min had been sitting in the Changqing Palace for more than an hour, and began to whimper and cry there, and then began to think about life by the moonlight.
The fact that Concubine De secretly replaced the prince quickly fermented in the palace. These days, people's words are terrifying, and some people even analyzed that it was Concubine De and Lin Zhaoyi who jointly wanted to frame Concubine Xi Shu, but the car overturned.
Concubine De has now been imprisoned in Zhaode Courtyard, a small shabby house comparable to Jinrong Pavilion, if not for Concubine Xi Shu's false persuasion, Ming Min's title of princess would almost be lost.
Ruo Ting walked up and down the hall with his hands behind his back, frowning.
Seeing him like this, Yu He comforted him: "Your Highness and Princess, don't worry, we can always figure out a way, as long as De Concubine Empress is really encouraged by others, then we won't be afraid."
Ruoting frowned: "I'm afraid that this traitorous concubine will target my concubine mother in the future."
Yu He took a deep breath, and seriously questioned Ruoting: "It will definitely hit the imperial concubine."
"Then tell me, what should I do, we really have nothing to do with her?" Ruoting slapped the table angrily.
Yu He rested his chin and looked at Ming Min who was still crying. He was really afraid that she would break her body from crying. If something went wrong with crying, wouldn't Shao Mingmin in that world also suffer along with her?
He began to think carefully about what Ruoting's ghost had said at that time, it seemed that Concubine Yu was framed for having adultery with which prince, which one...
Yu He slapped his forehead.
By the way, it's Yin Chixue!
Since this is the case, why not just follow the plan and ask her to go with her instead.
Thinking about it, Yu He turned his head and ran outside.
"Little Lizi! Where are you going?" Ruoting ran out after him.
"I have a solution." Throwing such a sentence, Yu He ran away without a trace.
It was already past one o'clock in the morning when we arrived at Yin Chixue's mansion, the ignorant knock on the door aroused dissatisfaction with the servants in charge of the night watch at home, and opened the door cursingly.
"Aren't you...?" Looking at Yu He who was out of breath, the servant thought it looked familiar.
Isn't this the one who won his underpants by playing chess two days ago?
Yu He also ignored him, pushed him away and went straight to Yin Chixue's bedroom.
Yin Chixue was falling asleep, but she suddenly felt a strange suffocation in her sleep, as if a huge boulder weighed heavily on her body.
He opened his eyes suddenly, facing a pair of shining pupils.
Startled, he raised his hand and knocked the unknown object to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Yin Chixue hurriedly got out of bed and lit the candle lamp with a painful curse, only to find that the one lying on the ground mourning and crying was actually Yu He.
"What are you, why are you lying here." Yin Chixue asked shamelessly.
"Why am I lying here, don't you have an AC number in your heart?"
Yin Chixue suppressed her laughter, and hurriedly helped Yu He up from the ground: "Who told you to lie on other people at night, I thought you were recruiting a thief."
After finishing speaking, he quickly touched Yu He's little butt: "It doesn't hurt from the fall, does it?"
Yu He opened his hand and glared at him: "Try to get you off the bed."
Yin Chixue hurried over to help Yu He put on the quilt: "But why are you here so late?"
It's good not to mention it, but when it is mentioned, Yu He feels extremely unhappy.
"Have you heard about Concubine De's exchanging her daughter for Lin Zhaoyi's son the day before yesterday?"
Yin Chixue nodded: "It's spread all over the palace, no one knows about it."
"Do you know who did it?"
Yin Chixue felt that this question was a bit strange: "Isn't that what Concubine De did?"
Yu He shook his head: "Actually, I went to the Jinrong Pavilion to meet Lin Zhaoyi on the night that Concubine De was going to be offered."
"and then."
"Lin Zhaoyi said it all. It was Concubine Xi Shu who came to take away her son and the jade pendant given to her by the emperor at that time."
Yin Chixue patted his little head, and said with a smile: "Lin Zhaoyi's spirit became a little abnormal after being thrown into the cold palace. Just trust her words. It was Concubine Xi Shu who exposed her at that time, so she must have a grudge. .”
Yu He looked at Yin Chixue with a mentally handicapped expression, curled his lips:
"Sure enough, that sentence is correct. It's not that one family does not enter the other family. You and your low-intelligence emperor brother are really exactly the same."
"What did you say?" Yin Chixue raised an eyebrow.
"Do you just like Concubine Xi Shu that much? Don't you think she is beautiful? Superficial."
Yin Chixue pinched Yu He's cheeks: "Then why did you insist that she did it again? Is there any evidence?"
"No." Then Yu He smiled mysteriously, "So we need to create evidence."
Seeing Yu He's malicious smile, Yin Chixue felt a shudder running down his back: "You, what kind of bad idea did you come up with?"
Yu He waved at Yin Chixue, motioning him to bring his ears closer.
"I want you to commit adultery with Concubine Yu..."
Yin Chixue's expression gradually turned cold, he was a little unbelievable, even suspicious of life.
"You...did you go to Jinrong Pavilion, and you were also infected with madness by Lin Zhaoyi?"
"You were the ones I saw. You didn't see how miserable Lin Zhaoyi was that night, and her maid Xiaoqi also said that it was Concubine Xi Shu who went over and warned her."
Yu He took a deep breath, he really felt chest tightness and shortness of breath when mentioning this treacherous concubine.
"Why is it that she is the first to discover something strange every time, because she was the one who planned this incident. The concubine De concubine is kind-hearted. In order to keep her daughter, she risked being beheaded and had to recognize each other. Concubine Shu instigated it first."
"Even so, you can't let Concubine Yu and I do that kind of thing." Yin Chixue stood up, very dissatisfied and a little emotional.
"How could it be possible for you to really do it." Yu He immediately approached Yin Chixue in a fawning manner, and shook Yin Chixue's hand, "But this matter must be done with your help."
Yin Chixue's face darkened again: "Then why don't you find another prince."
"The appearance of other people is not convincing." Yu He said, and winked at him in disgust.
Hearing this sentence, Yin Chixue forced a smile, and he snorted coldly with disdain:
"Since you've covered this point, tell me how you want me to help."
Yu He hooked his fingers: "Come here with your ears."
----------
Ever since Concubine De was thrown into the cold palace, almost all the concubines lived cautiously, for fear of being talked about.
Now all the doors will not go out, and the flowers will not be rewarded. You can embroider for a day just by leaning on the couch.
It seems that he was disturbed by the successive incidents in the harem, and the emperor didn't like to run there. When he had time, he would go to the study and swim in the ocean of knowledge.
Yu He went to Jinrong Pavilion a few more times, secretly brought Lin Zhaoyi some rare spring tribute fruits, and even made small gadgets to make the little prince Ruozhao happy.
Lin Zhaoyi seemed to be in a much better mood, and she looked refreshed.
"Speaking of which, I haven't met you a few times, but since I was imprisoned in Jinrong Pavilion, you are the only one willing to visit me."
Lin Zhaoyi rocked the cradle, looking at the little prince sleeping soundly in the cradle, a slight smile crept onto the corner of her mouth.
"Anyway, the prince doesn't have much to do there. He called me to visit you, empress, and told you to open your mouth if you lack something." Yu He once again brought Ruoting out of the cue, trying to win him popularity.
"His Royal Highness has indeed grown up. If he becomes the throne in the future, then we can feel at ease." Lin Zhaoyi laughed.
"By the way, empress, I want to ask you, at that time Concubine Xi Shu ordered someone to search your bedroom, found out the letter between you and Jin Yuan, do you still keep it?"
Lin Zhaoyi was stunned for a moment, and smiled wryly: "It's my shame, my grievance, of course I have to keep it, and always remind myself that in this deep palace, I can no longer trust others."
After she finished speaking, she added: "Of course, you, His Royal Highness, and my Xiaoqi are exceptions."
"Then can I borrow a slave to take a look?"
Lin Zhaoyi got up slowly after hearing this, took out the crumpled letter from the cabinet and handed it to Yu He.
Yu He opened it, looked at it twice, and asked, "Is this your handwriting?"
Lin Zhaoyi shook her head: "It wasn't written by me, how could it be my handwriting."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Zhaoyi seemed to think of something suddenly, she got up, and took out a few brocade boxes from the cabinet: "This is the anti-abortion tonic that Concubine Xi Shu brought to my palace that day, and there is an inscription written by her on it. , look, does it look like it?"
If a person's appearance can be changed, his character can be changed, but there are only two kinds of things that won't change——
Habits and handwriting.
Yu He carefully compared the two types of himself, and he was basically sure that although he was intentionally changing his writing habits in letters, the structure he had cultivated over the years could never be disguised.
This word comes from the same person—Concubine Xi Shu.
But these are not enough, he wants Concubine Xi Shu to personally admit the mistakes she made.
Just like what he promised Lin Zhaoyi at the time:
"I will help you get back the things that have been taken away by your mother one by one."
Including what was taken away by Ruoting back then, he wanted the treacherous concubine to return it double.

Yin Chixue had been standing outside Concubine Yu's Zhaoxiu Palace for half an hour, and just as he was about to leave in a fit of rage, she saw Yu He running in a hurry.
Look at him in a hurry, as if a dog is chasing him after him.
But take a closer look—
There really was a dog chasing him after him, it was a wolf dog, the one named Niuniu that seemed to be raised by Ruoyin.
"My lord, save me—!" Yu He ran over crying and howling, grabbed Yin Chixue's body and climbed up.
He was riding on Yin Chixue's shoulders, tremblingly looking at this wolf dog that he had met halfway, but ended up looking at him with dislike.
"Niu Niu, sit down." Yin Chixue stretched out his hand, and the wolfdog immediately sat down obediently.
"I don't agree. This is personality discrimination. There are so many eunuchs, why should I only chase after me?" Yu He yelled as he rode on Yin Chixue's neck.
Yin Chixue took him off his shoulders, brought him to his mouth and sniffed:
"Whoever told you to steal the chicken legs from the Imperial Dining Room will chase whoever is not chasing you."
When Yu He heard it, his face instantly blushed, he immediately pushed Yin Chixue away, and turned his head away: "There's no way to steal it."
"Okay, okay, I didn't eat or eat."
Yu He looked around, and after confirming that there were really many people around, he took out a letter from his arms and slipped it into Yin Chixue's hands:
"In a while, you will give this to the imperial concubine."
Yin Chixue took the letter and nodded.
"Remember how ambiguous and ambiguous the performance should be, how lewd and lewd the expression should be, and how perverted and perverted the smile should be."
Yin Chixue almost crushed the letter in his hand: "It's better for you to come."
Yu He gave him a push: "Okay, you go in quickly, remember to come every day, and you must pretend to look around before entering the door."
Yin Chixue curled her lips: "Then what's the benefit of me doing this?"
Yu He thought for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and kissed the back of his hand, and then it was printed on Yin Chixue's face: "There are too many people here, I owe the rest first."
Concubine Xi Shu was enjoying the scenery in the imperial garden with the Holy Mother and the Empress Dowager.
When spring comes, almost overnight, the trees are full of new buds, and the garden is full of flowers. Even the birds that flew to the south for the winter come back with flapping wings, and everywhere is full of vitality.
"You, you have to work harder to keep the emperor. You see, when I was young, I just didn't know how to capture a man's heart. So at that time, I only had the emperor's son. My good sister was framed and killed. It's too early to adopt Lao Jiu, but it's a pity that Lao Jiu..."
As she said that, the Empress Dowager shook her head regretfully: "At this age, I haven't married yet. I finally persuaded him to find a wife, but then ran away with her again."
"That's right, my uncle is very good-looking, and he is also a majestic prince. Why haven't you married yet? Let your old man worry about it."
"Lao Jiu is introverted, and he doesn't like to talk to me, the mother, about things. Sometimes he can't figure out what he is thinking." The empress dowager said, sighing.
"Tell me, is it possible that my uncle has some unspeakable secrets, so he has not been married for so long?"
"What's the unspeakable secret, he doesn't worry about his health
