"I didn't do it!" Concubine Shu reacted quickly after being stunned for a moment. She hastily defended. The really fatal crime, "I have no grievances with you, the imperial concubine, why should I do this?"

The queen's face sank like water, and she clenched her palms tightly, her heart flustered like never before.

How could this be?

Obviously she asked Bai Ling to drop the tea leaves into Changchun Palace, why did she go to Zhongcui Palace?

She subconsciously looked at Concubine Xian, and instinctively told her that there must be Concubine Xian's handwriting in it.

Gu Qianqian was drinking tea leisurely and watching a good show. When she noticed the gaze from above, the corners of her lips curled up, and she moved towards the gaze. When she saw the queen's livid suppressed angry expression, the smile on her face It became more and more brilliant, and even picked up the tea and waved it at the queen.

Sure enough, it was her who moved her hands and feet!The queen was both shocked and angry. She had too many doubts and puzzles in her heart at this time, but this time was not the time for her to have doubts and puzzles.

If concubine Shu is convicted of this crime, it will be troublesome.

The Empress would rather let Concubine Chun have an accident than Concubine Shu. There is no other reason. Now Concubine Shu is more favored than Concubine Chun. Long Live God still has a bit of love for her. With Concubine Shu here, she can't say something , I can ask Concubine Shu to blow the pillow wind for her.

If anything happened to Concubine Shu, there would be one less person on her side who could compete for favor, and it would be wishful thinking to rely on Concubine Chun and Concubine Yu to please Long Live Lord.

"Eunuch Li, is there a misunderstanding in this?" The queen said after considering, "Concubine Shu doesn't look like this kind of person."

Li Yu lowered his eyes and replied respectfully: "Returning to the mother, the tea was found by the servants and others in the palaces, and the servants above secretly marked it, so it can't be wrong."

"Oh, empress, are you trying to protect this bitch, Concubine Shu?" Concubine Gao blushed, staring at the empress and questioning.

Her chest heaved with anger, and her face was flushed sickly.

"I don't have that intention," the queen glanced at Qianlong, and saw that he was frowning, showing no signs of happiness or anger, so she quickly withdrew her gaze and said calmly, "I just want to find out the truth of the matter and give it to the noble concubine." It's just an explanation from my sister."

Concubine Gao was short of breath with anger.

Concubine Shu also seemed to realize that only the Queen can help her now, so she quickly stood up from the chair, knelt down on her knees, raised her head and said to Qianlong with red eyes: "Long Live Lord, I beg Long Live Lord to thoroughly investigate this matter." It is absolutely impossible for the concubines to poison the imperial concubine. The concubines have always been kind-hearted, and they are reluctant to step on ants."

She cried so much that the pear blossoms were raining, which made people feel sorry for her.

Gu Qianqian saw a trace of pity in Qianlong's eyes, she turned her thoughts around, put down the teacup, and said, "Long Live Lord, this concubine also thinks that Sister Concubine Shu is not like this kind of person, maybe Sister Concubine Shu is being used by others. "

She hasn't said a word since she came to Zhongcui Palace, and everyone else thought she was also frightened, but they didn't want her to say something that would kill her if she didn't speak.

Being used?

Who in the whole palace didn't know that Concubine Shu belonged to the Empress, and even Qianlong was well aware of this, if he could use Concubine Shu, who else could it be besides the Empress?

Everyone was so frightened by her bold words that they didn't even dare to breathe.

The queen said with a sullen face, "Concubine Xian, what nonsense are you talking about? If there is no reason, you can say whatever you want."

"I see, Concubine Xian's words are very reasonable." Concubine Gao was already confused at this time, she didn't care about the Queen's face at all, and she didn't want to think about the future. Her children were gone, so how could she think so much? , "Since it wasn't Concubine Shu who did it, it must have been done by someone else. There are not many people in this palace who can take advantage of Concubine Shu."

The queen's face turned blue and white, "Are you saying that I can't use Concubine Shu?"

"You know it well." Concubine Gao's eyes were filled with frost and snow. She looked straight at the queen, pushed away the maid next to her, stood up, and knelt down beside Concubine Shu, "Long live, my concubine!" Today we must seek justice for our child, this child is not blessed and has no destiny to come to this world, but my concubine cannot let this child go away without knowing why."

Her face was as pale as paper, and the rose-red flag dress made her even more haggard and depressed.

Qianlong frowned, "Get up quickly, you just had a miscarriage, why are you kneeling now?"

"If I can seek justice for the concubine's child, it would be fine if the concubine died today." Concubine Gao clenched her fists and straightened her body even more.

"Absurd, what are you talking about? Are you threatening me?" Qianlong's tone was filled with repressed anger. Gao Guifei's words put him in a dilemma. He wanted to seek justice for the child, but it involved When it comes to the Queen, it gets more complicated.

Although he knew that the empress might not be a perfect person even though she had a good reputation, but Qianlong was unwilling to believe that the empress would really kill Concubine Gao.

He has been married to the queen for more than ten years, and once had an intelligent son, whose affection is different from ordinary people.

"The concubine doesn't mean that." Concubine Gao's eyes turned red, and tears fell, "The concubine has served the Lord Long Live for many years, and I have always regretted not being able to spread the branches and leaves for the Lord Long Live. This year, I finally had a child. The concubine made a lot of small clothes for it, and the Lord Long Live also said that if the fetus is a prince, he will be named Yongjue, Jue, and Meiyu. I hope that this child will be like jade in the future, but all of this Gone……"

At the end of her speech, her voice was extremely shrill.

Qianlong showed a bit of unbearable expression on his face. He was silent for a moment. This moment was extremely long for everyone here. This moment of silence may determine the fate of everyone in the harem.

"Investigate!" Qianlong closed his eyes and said decisively, "We must investigate this matter by all means."

"Cha!" Li Yu agreed.

After Concubine Gao got the right words, she suddenly felt like a loose string, she collapsed on the ground, the maids hurriedly stepped forward to help her back to her seat and sit down.

Doctor Song saw that her complexion was not good, so she said: "Your Majesty, you should go back and rest now, your complexion is not very good."

"No need." Concubine Gao refused without even thinking about it.

She lowered her eyes, "I won't fall down, I have to help that child see who killed him."

Seeing that she was so persistent, Physician Song didn't dare to persuade her any more, so he asked people to quickly decoct the medicine. Concubine Gao could ignore her body, but they couldn't. Otherwise, if Concubine Gao fainted again at this juncture, they would still Do not eat and hang down.

Once checked, Chengqian Palace changed.

Even concubine Yu's maid and eunuch were not spared. Although she was not severely punished, she could not please her.

During this period of time, Qianlong didn't ask everyone to leave, and no one dared to mention it. The big guys knew in their hearts that Long Live Lord didn't let them go because they were afraid that they would take this opportunity to destroy the evidence.

The queen closed her eyes, her palms were already full of cold sweat. After sitting in this position for so many years, she had never been so passive like today. Being teased like a monkey.

She wasn't afraid that this matter would be found out on her head, Yikun Palace was impenetrable under her management, even if there was an extra fly, she would still know where the fly came from.

However, under the current situation, it is impossible to keep Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu is in trouble this time, the queen slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes fell on Concubine Shu, who was kneeling on His Highness's knees. She used to concubine Shu very well. She was beautiful and clever, but she was timid. Concubine Chun is so self-righteous, and not as scheming as Concubine Yu, she originally thought that if she waited a year or two, Concubine Shu would remain so well-behaved, and she would allow Concubine Shu to have a son and a half.

At that time, Concubine Shu will become her right-hand man and consolidate her rights for her.

The queen knew very well that she seemed to be different from others, but in fact there was no difference. It was just that she had been with him for a long time, and she had some affection.

Long live God has respect for her, but no love.

He is always beautiful in love.

Breaking Concubine Shu was a big blow to her, but it was better than setting fire to herself.

Concubine Shu didn't even know that the Queen had decided to give up on her. Her back was drenched in cold sweat, and her mind was spinning rapidly, wondering who was plotting against her in this matter. She clearly had nothing to do with it. How could the poisonous Biluochun be in her palace?

In an instant, she thought of many possible people, Concubine Yu, Concubine Jia, Concubine Yi, Concubine Xian, even Concubine Chun, and the Empress.

She thinks everyone has a possibility, but the more she thinks about it, the more headache she gets.

She looked towards the queen expectantly, but the queen turned her face away, as if unwilling to meet her eyes, Shu Pin's heart fell to the bottom of the valley instantly, she opened her mouth, wanting to say something.

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside.

Li Yu walked in with a few guards and escorted an eunuch. He slapped Qianlong and said to Qianlong, "Long Live Lord, this eunuch said he knows something."

Hearing this, Gu Qianqian looked at the eunuch.

This eunuch is kind-hearted. Although Gu Qianqian rarely goes to Chengqian Palace, she still remembers that this eunuch seems to be Rong Jixin, the chief eunuch of Concubine Shu.

"Xiao Rongzi!" Concubine Shu looked at Rong Jixin in astonishment.

"What do you know?" The queen frowned, "But it's related to Concubine Shu's murder of the royal heir?"

That Rong Jixin had obviously been tortured, said tremblingly: "Yes, the matter of poisoning the imperial concubine was caused by the servants ordered by Concubine Shu."

As soon as he said this, Concubine Shu froze for a moment, and after a while, she seemed to go crazy, she rushed towards Rong Jixin, raised her hand and gave Rong Jixin a slap in the face, "Rong Jixin, what nonsense are you talking about!"
