"Your Majesty, she slandered me! I have never said anything bad about Concubine Xian's sister. Although I knew about it, I thought they didn't dare to act at all. It happened that I didn't have the opportunity to report to Your Majesty during the sacrifice the next day. All this has nothing to do with me!" Concubine Qin explained anxiously.

How dare she betray her, this bitch! Who gave her such courage?

The hatred in her heart reached its peak.

"Keep an eye on her, follow me to Yongle Palace."

Xuan Yi didn't even look at her and ordered the guards.

Concubine Qin looked at Xuan Yi's resolute back, her heart in her throat.

If the emperor found her secret base, all her efforts and everything would be in vain, and the entire Qin family would be in dire straits!

But that place was extremely hidden, and it was impossible for him to find it! The mood calmed down instantly.

"As a concubine, you knew they had this intention, but you didn't report it! You harbored a criminal! How can you hold the Phoenix Seal?" The Queen Mother said sternly.

They kidnapped not only Concubine Xian but also her future grandson! Who of them can bear this responsibility? Ten deaths are not enough!

"Queen Mother, I was never involved in this matter. They did it all!" Concubine Qin explained to the Queen Mother non-stop.

As long as Concubine Qin didn't admit it, how could they easily convict her?

If they couldn't find Concubine Xian, she would be useful to the Emperor. The Emperor would not easily execute her. She was sure of this. The Emperor still had a headache and needed her.

The concubines kneeling below were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that she would put all the blame on them. Obviously, she didn't object that day! She wanted them to be his scapegoats!

"My Lady, if you didn't acquiesce, would we dare to do such a thing? If you didn't want to, why didn't you stop it that day? Now, you put all the responsibility on us, we won't do it! You can't get away with it!"

"You! I thought you were joking, but I didn't expect you to actually do it!" Concubine Qin frowned and said defensively.

"My Lady, you just want to use us to get rid of Concubine Xian and dominate the harem alone! Why pretend to be so pure?"

"Yes, My Lady is the one who started the fire. When something happened, she ran faster than anyone else!"

"That's right!"

"My Lady knew about this from beginning to end. When something happened, she pretended to know nothing. How hypocritical!"

"Maybe she planned all this! She wanted to use the emperor's hand to get rid of us and dominate the harem!"

The concubines felt that they were about to die and were not afraid of anything.

You said one thing and I said another.

"You are so presumptuous!" Qin Guifei shouted in anger.

No one dared to talk to her like this, are they crazy?

The concubines suddenly quieted down and looked at each other.

"I think you are the presumptuous one! After thinking about it, who has such a big hand to make someone disappear in the palace? It can only be you." The queen mother looked at her with disgust, and the hatred on her face increased a little more.

If I had known, I shouldn't have let her marry into the palace! She has occupied a good position for so many years, and now she puts her grandson in danger. It's damn it!

"Empress Dowager! Empress Dowager, this is not done by me!" Qin Guifei pulled the queen mother's outer robe excitedly and kept crying.

"Whether it is right or not, we will talk about it when the emperor comes back. You can't escape the blame!" The queen mother shook off her hand and sat back to the position just now.

Qin Guifei knelt on the ground and cried, and her tears wet her clothes. .

...

Yongle Palace.

"Host, Xuanyi is coming soon." Qiuqiu reminded warmly.

He and the host have been watching TV here for a long time. If he doesn't come, it will fall asleep.

Xuanyi finally came.

Feng Yuluan raised her eyebrows, "It's earlier than I expected."

In this month of getting along, she clearly felt Xuanyi's feelings for her, but she didn't know what he was struggling with, and they never really opened up.

This time she was tied up, and she also wanted Xuanyi to understand her irreplaceability.

"It's time to make some preparations." As she said that, Feng Yuluan wiped a handful of ash on the ground and smeared it on her face. She also messed up her loose bun and made her skirt dirty, and then stopped with satisfaction.

Touching the face swollen by Concubine Qin, it still hurts a little.

"Qiuqiu, take away the knife and rope." Feng Yuluan pointed to the knife on the ground used to cut the rope and said to Qiuqiu.

Outside the secret room.

The people led by Xuan Yi searched the Yongle Palace inside and out, leaving no corner untouched.

With a "bang", the door of the bedroom was kicked open.

Xuan Yi strode in and looked around carefully. The guards searched through the boxes and cabinets. There was a long sound in the room.The smell of spices that he had never smelled before, he used to think it smelled good, but now he only felt more restless inside.

This inexplicable restlessness made him very uncomfortable, frowned, and was about to leave the room immediately.

But he heard a faint knocking sound.

Xuan Yi became alert instantly.

"Don't move."

The guards stopped their current actions instantly, and looked at Xuan Yi in confusion.

Without the sound of the guards flipping things, the knocking sound became more obvious.

Everyone heard it and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

The sound was actually made by a sandalwood wardrobe.

Xuan Yi gradually approached the wardrobe and slowly opened the wardrobe. The knocking sound was obviously louder.

He immediately searched for the switch in the wardrobe, threw the clothes in the wardrobe out, and an obvious button appeared.

Xuan Yi, immediately pressed it.

With a few sounds, the sandalwood inside the wardrobe was pushed up, revealing a passage.

Everyone was shocked!

I didn't expect that there was a secret room in Concubine Qin's room!

Xuan Yi walked in immediately, and with a ray of light, he saw Feng Yuluan lying weakly on the stone steps, knocking the ground with a small stone in her hand, extremely weak.

Feng Yuluan heard a sound coming from the front, so she looked up and forced a smile, "Your Majesty, you are here." Then she fainted.

Xuan Yi ran up nervously, picked up the fainted Feng Yuluan, and shouted while walking back, "Yuluan? Yuluan?"

But the person in his arms did not respond.

He couldn't help but worry.

"Call the doctor! Go to Cining Palace." Xuan Yi strode out of the room with the person in his arms and ordered the guards outside.

Yongle Palace made him very uncomfortable. Cining Palace was closer to Yongle Palace, so he rushed to Cining Palace with the person in his arms.

"Block this place and don't allow anyone to enter!"

"Yes!"

Xuan Yi rushed to Cining Palace with Feng Yuluan in his arms.

Jiuhua Palace.

“Report to the Queen Mother, the Concubine Xian has been found! The Emperor has asked the imperial physician to go to the Cining Palace!” The young eunuch reported breathlessly.

The Queen Mother stood up happily, “Okay, you guys go quickly!”

Great, the person has been found!

The imperial physicians kowtowed and retreated after receiving the approval, and then hurried to the Cining Palace.

Concubine Qin collapsed to the ground instantly. Concubine Xian had been found, and she was done for, everything was discovered…

Concubine Qin desperately crawled towards the Queen Mother, “Queen Mother, I was wrong! Please give me a chance to make amends. I have been recuperating for many years, and my health has improved a lot. I will definitely be able to bear children for the Emperor!”

Now that Concubine Xian has been found, whether she admits it or not, her guilt will be confirmed, and she will have to find a chance to protect herself.

The Emperor will definitely not let her go, and she can only beg the Queen Mother.

If the Queen Mother knew that she could also give birth to a child, she might have spared her life!

So she looked at the Queen Mother nervously, expecting her reaction.
