sick princess

Concubine Zhou had a calm demeanor, although Li Ronghua showed a nervous expression, seeing that Concubine Zhou was so calm, he also suppressed the anxiety in his heart.Concubine Hui watched the interaction between the two, and snorted coldly: "I really don't know, did the imperial concubine really not do this, or did she arrange it long ago, so she has nothing to worry about?"

"Concubine Hui, I know that you are eager to find out the so-called mastermind behind the scenes to prove your innocence, but everything must be based on evidence. When you catch someone and say that others are guilty, it will only make people think you are trying to bite. You I was also grounded by the emperor for such a long time because of my impatience, why, is this temper still unable to calm down now?"

"The imperial concubine is really eloquent, and the concubine is not as good as it. However, the concubine wants to ask the imperial concubine about something. Since the imperial concubine feels that only when she has evidence can she assert other people's criminal evidence, just now, in the words of the murderer who killed the Rong concubine. When the sentence pointed to Rui Xiaoyi, the imperial concubine believed it without asking any questions? Could it be that the spirit of the imperial concubine's proof-seeking also varies from person to person?"

"Just now, Bengong was also anxious to find the murderer who killed Concubine Rong's sister, so he got a little impatient. Concubine Hui shouldn't learn from Bengong."

"It's a pity, my concubine is an impatient person. If the murderer who framed my concubine was not found this day, my concubine can't feel at ease for a day. Now, all the evidence points to the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine is talking. Even the concubines can't keep their feet, so it's hard for the imperial concubine to remain so calm."

Concubine Hui's eyes flicked between Concubine Zhou and Li Ronghua: "Could it be that Zheng Shangjia is really not the concubine's concubine, he actually has another owner?"

"Zheng Shangjia works for the royal family, and his master is naturally the emperor. Concubine Hui has repeatedly hinted that Zheng Shangjia is from this palace, but it is disrespectful to the emperor. This palace is just a recommender, how can I control outside affairs?"

"Why can't I manage it? If Zheng Shangjia really regarded the emperor as his only master in his heart, he would not have done such a thing. Forget it, the concubine just asked casually, since the imperial concubine and empress do not Worried about being found out, the concubine will not worry about the concubine or empress. The concubine or empress is meticulous in her work, and will always leave a way out for herself. But, I wonder if Li Ronghua will be as lucky as you."

Li Ronghua naturally heard the provocative meaning in Concubine Hui's words. Although she was a little nervous, she still said firmly: "What I have never done, I can't be found out anyway. Don't worry Concubine Hui."

"Really?" Concubine Hui's lips traced an unknown smile: "I hope Rong Hua can say that later."

"Okay, shut up for me. Don't say a word, no one will think you are dumb!" Empress Xu stepped forward and scolded Emperor Zhaode when she saw the impatient look on Emperor Zhaode's face.

Concubine Hui and Concubine Zhou's verbal battle was almost over, and seeing Empress Xu's words, she took advantage of the situation and stopped.

Not long after, the person who went to search the palace came back: "Reporting to the emperor, nothing wrong was found in the palace of the imperial concubine. Instead, a wooden ornament was found in the palace of the empress Ronghua."

The leader of the guards presented an object in front of Emperor Zhaode. When Emperor Zhaode saw the object, his expression changed drastically. The wooden ornament was exactly the same as the "seal the throat at the sight of blood" just now!

"Come here, take Li Ronghua down for me!"

"How could there be such a thing in my palace? Did I make a mistake?" Li Ronghua looked at the wooden ornament in shock.

"No mistake, it was found from Ronghua Empress Palace."

The guard's words shattered the last illusion in Li Ronghua's mind. Li Ronghua turned his head to look at Concubine Zhou, who was with the old god, and suddenly felt that Concubine Zhou, who was kind and kind in the past, turned out to be so hideous.

"Your imperial concubine, you have caused me so much—"

She wholeheartedly worked for Concubine Zhou, although she was a little cautious occasionally, she was very loyal to Concubine Zhou.Who knew it would end up like this now.

Tian Guiren on the side looked at his distant cousin's embarrassed look, and secretly shrank his head, looking at Concubine Zhou with a trace of fear in his eyes.

It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, it is impossible for Tian Guiren to stand up and say something for her cousin at this moment - she is soft-spoken, her words have no weight, and she will have to get involved with herself later.She looked down at her toes, and said in her heart, cousin, don't blame me, I have no other choice.If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely avenge you, and it is not in vain for your support.

At this moment, Li Ronghua was completely under control.With physical evidence, Emperor Zhaode was not willing to believe what Li Ronghua said.

Concubine Zhou turned her head, as if she couldn't bear to see her former good sisters in such a mess now: "Sister Ronghua, I never thought that you would take advantage of my trust in you to do such a thing... You should confess to the emperor quickly Well, in this way, the emperor may be able to forgive you. If you die and don't repent, even this palace will not be able to save you. "

Li Ronghua's throat let out a strange laugh: "You are really good, empress concubine. Today, I can be regarded as seeing what it means to know someone, know their face, but not their heart. How did I know someone like you? How could I be blind and walk with someone like you?"

"Your majesty, you have to be careful. The one lying next to you is not a gentle and dignified concubine. She is a beautiful snake! She only has her own interests in her heart. For this, she will sacrifice everything! Just like a minister Concubine, useless, becomes an abandoned child in the hands of the noble concubine."

"Gag Li Ronghua's mouth, I don't want to hear her again!"

Although Emperor Zhaode made people seal Li Ronghua's mouth, Baoluo could tell that Li Ronghua's words had a certain influence on Emperor Zhaode.

Although Concubine Zhou cast Li Ronghua as a scapegoat today, most people in the palace would not believe that she was innocent.

Just now, after listening to Li Ronghua's words, Emperor Zhaode looked at Concubine Zhou with suspicion and guard in his eyes.This time, it might not be so easy for Concubine Zhou to clear Emperor Zhaode's suspicion.

Besides, with the example of Li Ronghua first, in this harem, who else would dare to make friends with Concubine Zhou, who else would dare to associate with Concubine Zhou?

She was waiting to see the day when Concubine Zhou fell from power.

Compared with Concubine Zhou, the Empress Dowager is even more difficult to deal with.

This time, Baoluo is sure that the Empress Dowager must be responsible.It's just that Concubine Zhou lost her troops, but the Empress Dowager hid behind her back, her scheming was obviously higher than Concubine Zhou's.

It seems that the queen mother will be a more difficult enemy.

Emperor Zhaode wanted to catch Zheng Shangjia first and force his confession, and the case was closed.Unexpectedly, the people sent by Emperor Zhaode found nothing.

"Your Majesty, Zheng Shangjia has left the capital since he stopped being an imperial merchant. These years, he seems to have disappeared from the world, and his shop has been sold to other colleagues. The minister is incompetent, and it is really impossible to find out where Zheng Shangjia is. where."

The more this is the case, the more tricky it is.

If Zheng Shangjia didn't have the support of a certain force behind him, if he hadn't planned everything early, how could he suddenly disappear without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the world?

"Keep looking for me! Dig three feet into the ground, and find this person!"

"According to my decree, Li Ronghua murdered the concubine Rong, smuggled poison into the palace, plotted against the law, abolished the concubine's position, and put her in the cold palace! The entire Li family will be dismissed from office, and three generations will not be allowed to be officials!"

"Concubine Rong is a virtuous and virtuous concubine, and she won my heart. Unfortunately, she died today. Concubine Rong will be crowned as a first-rank Shu concubine, and she will be buried with the ceremony of a first-rank imperial concubine!"

After hearing this, Concubine Zhou was quite disturbed.She herself was descended from the position of imperial concubine, and now, Concubine Rong is buried with the ceremony of imperial concubine, no matter how she thinks, she is not happy.

But Concubine Zhou is not the kind of person who can't look at people's eyes. She knows that Emperor Zhaode is dissatisfied with her, and she really feels pity for Concubine Rong, so she made such an order.Therefore, she lowered her head meekly and said nothing.

When she returned to Changchun Palace, she became a good mother who cared about her son again: "Is Xiaoqi feeling better now? Is he still having a fever?"

"If you go back to your mother, the Seventh Prince is already much better. Not long ago, he woke up for a while."

Concubine Zhou breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.She personally picked up a towel, dipped it in the water from the basin, and covered the Seventh Prince's forehead, her eyes were full of pity: "Xiao Qi, poor child, I don't know when he will get better."

"The death of Concubine Shu is regrettable. But anyway, you are still caring about the Seventh Prince. With your meticulous care, I believe that the Seventh Prince will recover soon." The little palace maid at the side comforted road.

Concubine Zhou Gui sighed: "I hope so... In the past few days, whenever I see Xiao Qi lying on the bed with a pale face, I can't wait to treat each other with my own body..." At the end, her words choked up.

"Although the master and the seventh prince have been separated for three years because of the villain's troubles, they are blood-linked mothers and sons, and no one else can compare. The seventh prince is so sensible, if he knows that the master is so worried about him, he must not bear it. Sick again."

While speaking, the Seventh Prince's eyelashes fluttered a few times, and then slowly opened his eyes.

He stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time before finally finding the focal length. He looked at the joyful woman sitting in front of his bed, "Mother... concubine?"

"Hey!" Concubine Zhou responded happily, and embraced the Seventh Prince into her arms: "You've woken up, these days, I'm worried about dead mother and concubine."

The seventh prince quietly let Concubine Zhou hold him, but his heart was icy cold.

His real mother and concubine will never come back again.

In the future, no one will plan for him with all their eyes. He really has to rely on himself for everything.
