The Shoukang Palace was shocked.

After a long time, Concubine Yu sighed and said, "Gao Guifei, what you did this time is a bit too domineering..."

Concubine Gao did not expect that Concubine Jia, who is usually as docile as a cat, would bite back in front of the Empress Dowager. She was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Concubine Jia, you spit blood!"

The concubine said with tears in her eyes: "Your imperial concubine, I know that my status is humble and I dare not offend your majesty, but you have really gone too far this time. I know that I am wrong. It is not good for me to take care of my elder brother, so I should be demoted." No promise. But I beg you, let the fourth elder brother go, don’t let the fourth elder brother get sick again! As long as the fourth elder brother can grow up healthy, the slave is willing to die here!"

As she said that, the concubine Jia rushed out to do something drastic like splashing blood on the Shoukang Palace.

Seeing this, Madam Zhang quickly grabbed Concubine Jia.

Empress Fucha also said: "Concubine Jia, don't be impulsive, the fourth elder brother is still waiting for you, my mother."

"The Empress!"

The concubine cried even harder.

While crying, she blamed herself and said: "The status of a slave is low, and he is not qualified to raise the fourth elder brother. He can only stay in Chuxiu Palace and look up to the noble concubine. But the imperial concubine... the slave is really... the slave... the slave... the slave It's the fourth elder brother's mother-in-law!"

The more the concubine cried, the more sad she became, she was almost in tears.

Seeing this, Empress Fucha said to the Empress Dowager: "Empress Dowager, the abolition of the concubine's position still needs to be discussed in the long run."

"Yes, Empress Dowager," Concubine Chun said, "If the concubine is really as she said, she is bullied by Concubine Gao on weekdays, and the fourth prince's frequent illness is also caused by Concubine Gao, then she is just incompetent, not not loving her." Fourth elder brother, let alone intending to use fourth elder brother to compete for favor."

"Ah."

The queen mother snorted lukewarmly.

Concubine Yu also said: "As the saying goes, a tiger's poison does not eat its offspring. After all, the concubine Jia is the fourth elder brother's mother-in-law, and I don't believe she would do vicious things like using the fourth elder brother's health to invite pets."

The other concubines also agreed with Concubine Yu's statement.

The Empress Dowager then said to Empress Fucha: "Send someone to Chuxiu Palace and take all the maids and eunuchs who serve the fourth elder brother to the Department of Punishment! This matter must be investigated and found out!"

"My concubine understands."

Empress Fucha said to Erqing, "Go to Chuxiu Palace."

"Erqing obeyed."

Erqing leaves Shoukang Palace.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu spoke coolly again: "Empress, my concubine heard that there is a capable maid named Yingluo in Changchun Palace, why don't you send her to Chuxiu Palace today?"

"Yingluo has other things to do."

Empress Fucha answered Concubine Shu's question in a gentle tone.

Concubine Shu didn't dare to openly sing against the queen, after getting the answer, she honestly waited aside, waiting for news from the Department of Punishment.

In Shoukang Palace, it was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

……

The Empress Dowager and the Empress interrogated the crime in person, and it was related to the health of the prince, so the Punishment Department did not dare to neglect, but within a short time, the interrogation had a result.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and the masters of the palaces, the slaves have already checked the affairs of the Chuxiu Palace. The maids and eunuchs around the fourth elder brother did have a transfer half a month ago, and now they are all serving by the fourth elder brother's side. It was personally selected by the imperial concubine half a month ago."

Manager Wu replied respectfully, his head almost buried in the blanket.

When the concubine heard this, she looked at the empress dowager and the empress again with tears in her eyes: "It's not a pity for the concubine to die, but the fourth elder brother..."

"Concubine Jia, you're doing well, what kind of unkind words are you talking about!"

The queen mother reprimanded the concubine Jia.

The Concubine Jia was overjoyed when she heard that the Empress Dowager was clearly biased towards her, and said with tears in her eyes, "I beg the Empress Dowager to be the master."

The Empress Dowager ignored her, and said to Concubine Gao: "Concubine, the matter has come to this, what else do you have to say?"

"Queen, my concubine has been wronged!"

Concubine Gao quickly knelt down and said to the Empress Dowager: "The concubine indeed transferred the maids and eunuchs next to the fourth elder brother half a month ago, but the cause of this matter was the concubine Jia! It was the concubine who asked the concubine to change the eunuchs for the fourth elder brother! Absolutely! It wasn't the concubine's request! As the head of the Chuxiu Palace, the concubine has always treated the concubine with good intentions and treated the fourth elder brother as her own. She never thought of harming the fourth elder brother or using the fourth elder brother to compete for favor! What happened today It's clearly the concubine Jia who wants to kill me!"

"Your Majesty's Concubine!"

The concubine also cried out for injustice, and said loudly: "If the concubine wants to use the fourth elder brother to harm the empress, why wait until today! Besides, the empress has always been favored, but the concubine only has the fourth elder brother, and the concubine has eaten the dragon. I don't even dare to take the risk of losing my fourth elder brother to murder the imperial concubine! Please also ask the queen mother and empress to investigate clearly!"

"What Concubine Jia said makes sense."

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "You are the head of the Chuxiu Palace, and all affairs of the Chuxiu Palace need your approval. Even if the concubine Jia is very courageous, she will not be able to play tricks under your nose!"

"Queen Mother! The concubine was wronged! The concubine was designed by the concubine Jia!"

Concubine Gao called out her grievances again.

The corner of Concubine Chun's mouth twitched into a sneer, and said: "Queen Dowager, this concubine thinks that this matter may not be the work of the concubine, but it should at least be a crime of dereliction of duty for the concubine to allow such a rough slave to take care of the fourth elder brother for half a month!"

"Sister Chunfei is quite right. As the head of Chuxiu Palace, Concubine Gao, even if she can't treat the fourth elder brother as her own, she shouldn't feel wrong to see the fourth elder brother who has been ill for half a month in a row! This matter It is indeed the noble concubine who has neglected her duty!"

She Shuxian took the initiative to cater to Concubine Chun's point of view.

The Empress Dowager remained silent, just looking at Empress Fucha.

Empress Fucha sighed, and said: "As the head of Chuxiu Palace, the noble concubine appointed a clumsy servant to take care of the fourth elder brother, causing the fourth elder brother to continue to fall ill. Even if it was unintentional, it is a crime of negligence. It should be banned for a month and contemplate behind closed doors. "

"One month is too light, it should be two months! And half a year's salary!"

The queen mother added a sentence without anger.

Concubine Gao was so angry that her eyes were on fire, but she had to kowtow to admit her mistake, thanking the empress dowager and empress for their generosity.

After dealing with Concubine Gao, it was the turn of Concubine Jia.

Although the queen mother punished the noble concubine, she was quite dissatisfied with the concubine Jia's behavior, saying: "Concubine Jia, as the biological mother of the fourth elder brother, you actually watched the fourth elder brother being taken care of by the clumsy slaves and fell ill every day until Only today did I tell the whole story to Bengong, you are not worthy of being the mother of the fourth elder brother with your kind of heart!"

"Queen Mother! The concubine didn't intentionally ignore the affairs of the fourth elder brother. The concubine just had no choice. Concubine Gao is very powerful, and she is the head of Chuxiu Palace. Concubine... concubine..."

The concubine cried again.

Seeing this, Empress Fucha said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, the fourth elder brother is sick, and Concubine Jia is sadder than anyone else, so don't blame her anymore!"

"Well, I won't blame you if the queen intercedes for you, but—"

The Queen Mother said with a cold face: "Concubine Jia, as the fourth elder brother's mother-in-law, you are unable to protect your own child. I will punish you to contemplate in Chuxiu Palace for half a year!"

"No!"

The concubine Jia protested and looked at the queen mother miserably: "Queen mother, my concubine would rather be relegated to the cold palace than think about it in Chuxiu Palace!"

Concubine Yu also said: "Empress Dowager, Concubine Jia has offended Concubine Gui severely today, if she thinks about it in Chuxiu Palace, I'm afraid there will be trouble again."

"What Concubine Yu said makes sense."

The queen mother asked the concubine Jia: "Concubine Jia, where do you want to go to think about it?"

"Concubine...concubine..."

Concubine Jia glanced at She Shuxian, then at Concubine Chun, and said, "This concubine wants to go to Zhongcui Palace to repent."

"The Bell Palace?"

The queen mother glanced at Concubine Chun.

Concubine Gao stabbed at Concubine Chun full of hatred.

Seeing this, Concubine Chun said: "My concubine and the fourth elder brother come to Zhongcui Palace, the concubine is naturally welcome. If the queen mother has other arrangements, the concubine will definitely have no other ideas."

"Since Concubine Chun said so, then I will..."

The Empress Dowager's sharp gaze swept the audience around, and finally landed on She Shuxian: "Concubine Xian, I want Concubine Jia and the fourth elder brother to move to Chengqian Palace, you are willing!"

"The concubine can't ask for it."

She Shuxian spoke in a stiff tone, apparently daring to be angry at the Queen Mother's arrangement.

Seeing that Concubine Xian didn't like this arrangement, the queen mother smiled happily.

"I'm tired, let's all go back!"

……

……

Concubine Gao was "supported" by the maids of Shoukang Palace and sent back to Chuxiu Palace.

As the center of this matter, Concubine Jia didn't even go back to Chuxiu Palace, but directly followed She Shuxian to Chengqian Palace, and asked the ladies and nuns of Chengqian Palace to go to Chuxiu Palace to help her move things.

She Shuxian knew that going to Chuxiu Palace would mean facing Concubine Gao's gunfire, so she said, "You rest here first, and I will send someone to help you bring all your personal belongings here."

"Concubine, thank you for your kindness."

The concubine Jia said gratefully, knelt down to She Shuxian, and said: "If it weren't for the clever plan of the concubine Xian, the mother and the concubine would have been bullied by the concubine for many years in Chuxiu Palace. It's just the concubine, the concubine has a The matter is unclear, why did the empress ask the concubine to tell the queen mother that she wants to live in Zhongcui Palace?"

"It's very simple, the virtual is the real, the real is the virtual."

She Shuxian walked to the bonsai with a smile, took the scissors, cut off a bunch of buds, and said: "Zhongcui Palace has always been close to Changchun Palace, but not at odds with Chuxiu Palace, but Chengqian Palace of this palace is related to Changchun Palace. It is neither far nor close to Chuxiu Palace. If you directly say that you want to come to Chengqian Palace, the Queen Mother will definitely let you go to Zhongcui Palace. So we have to do the opposite!"

"So that's how it is. It turns out that everything was concubine Xian's clever plan."

Concubine Jia complimented She Shuxian.

She Shuxian knew who the concubine Jia was, so these flattering words to her naturally flowed in one ear and out the other, for fear that they would stay in her mind for a long time and affect her IQ.

Not long after, the maids and eunuchs who went to Chuxiu Palace to move things came back. Under the command of Nanny Rong, the things were placed in the room in an orderly manner, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent several sets of brand new furniture under the order of Changchun Palace. , a number of court ladies and eunuchs, and pens, inks, papers and inkstones for the fourth elder brother.

Looking at the brand-new objects in the courtyard, and the court ladies and eunuchs lined up in two rows, the concubine Jia, who has always been a follower of power, couldn't help saying: "The empress really has a kind heart."
