Chapter 1064: Concubine Xuan mocks Concubine Zhuang (171 million votes plus additional content)
Such a thing happened in Shuixi Pavilion, and all the palace servants were trembling with fear.
Because they knew very well that if anything happened to the royal heir, they would be killed without a burial place!
When Yuan'er was brought up by the people from the Ministry of Punishment, she was so frightened that her face turned pale and she knelt on the ground, shaking constantly.
Su Quanye looked at her and said coldly: "Tell me again what you just said!"
"Yes."
Yuan Er did not dare to hide anything and said truthfully, "My lady said this morning that she wanted to eat lotus seed soup, so I went to ask the imperial kitchen to make it."
"At noon, I thought it was about time, so I went with Xing'er to the imperial kitchen to get the young lady's lotus seed soup."
"On the way back, Xing'er suddenly said that the young lady's taste had changed a little since she became pregnant. She wondered if the lotus seed soup was sweet enough, so she asked me to go to the imperial kitchen to get some honey. If the young lady wants it sweeter, she can add it in time."
Su Quanye looked at Xing'er again: "Is what she said true?"
Xing'er kowtowed and said, "It's true."
"But what the slave said is also true..."
"I was just worried that the young lady would find the lotus seed soup not sweet enough, so I asked Yuan'er to go back and get some honey."
"I really didn't take the opportunity to poison the lotus seed soup! Your Majesty, please understand! My lady, please understand!"
Concubine Chun looked at the two people kneeling on the ground and trembling, and frowned slightly: "Yuan'er and Xing'er are right. After I got pregnant, I really like to eat sweet things."
"In this case, it is normal for Xing'er to ask Yuan'er to go back and get the honey. This does not mean that she is the one who poisoned the lotus seed soup, right?"
Wangpin looked at Concubine Chun sarcastically: "Didn't Eunuch Su make it very clear? When other people touched the lotus seed soup, there were people around. Only Xing'er was alone with the lotus seed soup. Who else could it be but her?"
"You are not usually a compassionate person, why do you feel so sorry for the palace maids this time?"
Why is this foreign tribute pretending to be kind here? Does he think he is Concubine Zhuang?
Concubine Chun was choked by Concubine Wang for no reason. Her weak face immediately revealed a look of grievance: "Madam Concubine Wang, you have never been my biological mother, how can you understand my feelings?"
"I am pregnant now, so I naturally don't want to commit murder in vain. Otherwise, God is watching, what if something happens to my child?"
Concubine Chun said this with such sincerity and emotion that many people nodded in agreement.
Yes.
Which mother would be willing to commit murder while pregnant? Concubine Chun was also trying to accumulate virtue for her unborn child and didn't want to wrongly accuse anyone.
Otherwise, what if someone dies in vain because of this, ruining the royal heir's fortune?
Wangpin snorted coldly: "I have never been a biological mother, but the Third Prince is my own son to me. If anyone dares to murder him, I will do everything I can to find out the truth and make the evildoer pay the price!"
"How can I pretend to be a bodhisattva like Concubine Chun?"
Concubine Chun didn't say anything, but her face turned even paler.
Yingxiang immediately cried and said to Wangpin: "Madam Wangpin, on weekdays, it doesn't matter what you want, but our young lady is in very bad health now. The imperial physician said that she can't be stimulated anymore, please let our young lady go..."
In the eyes of others, these words seemed like Concubine Wang often bullied Concubine Chun by relying on her position as the mistress of the palace.
Wangpin's expression suddenly changed: "...You!"
"enough!"
Nangong Xuanyu glanced at Wang Bin impatiently, interrupted her, and then said to Su Quanye: "Drag Xing'er to the Ministry of Punishment for strict interrogation. We must find out the truth!"
"Yes!"
Immediately, two young eunuchs grabbed Xing'er on the left and right and dragged her out.
Her face was full of tears, and she kept begging, "I didn't! I really didn't murder the young lady!"
"Please spare my life, Your Majesty!!!"
"My young master, please save me..."
Then a clever little eunuch covered Xing'er's mouth and dragged her away.
The other palace servants who watched this scene all felt a sense of grief for the deceased.
Their lives are worthless.
If we can't find out who put the poison in the lotus seed soup, I'm afraid everyone in Shuixi Pavilion will die...
Concubine Xue, who had been silent the whole time, looked at Concubine Chun's pale face and couldn't help asking, "Doctor Qiao, is Concubine Chun's child safe?"
Just because Concubine Xue didn't ask about the affairs of the harem didn't mean she knew nothing. If she was really deaf, she wouldn't have lived to this day, let alone secure her position as a concubine.
Although Concubine Xue has always known that Concubine Chun is a restless person, the child is innocent no matter what.
This is also the issue that everyone is most concerned about.
But whether they were really worried about Concubine Chun's child, or had some other motive, only they themselves knew the answer.
Doctor Qiao bowed and said, "Madam Xue, Concubine Chun's child is fine for now, but you must be extra careful from now on!"
"After this incident, Concubine Chun was injured and can no longer withstand any more waves."
Xue Fei nodded and said nothing more.
Concubine Zhuang clasped her hands together and said with relief: "Amitabha, God has mercy on me!"
Seeing Concubine Zhuang's pious appearance, Ruoli was moved and said, "Mrs. Chun, you don't know that on the way to Changchun Palace, our queen has been praying for you and the heir."
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Concubine Chun's eyes, but her face was touched: "Thank you so much, Empress Zhuang."
Perhaps Concubine Zhuang, this smiling tiger, wants to see her suffer more than anyone else? It's really disgusting to pretend to be compassionate here!
That is to say, her current target is Concubine Chen, and she has no time to deal with Concubine Zhuang. Otherwise, without His Royal Highness Prince Jin saying anything, the next person she wants to get rid of is Concubine Zhuang, this disgusting woman!
Xuanpin had not forgotten that when Concubine Zhuang came just now, she gave His Majesty a look of medicine, implying that the snow silkworm molting appeared in the palace because Concubine Chen was not managing the harem well.
Immediately, Xuanpin looked at Concubine Zhuang in surprise: "If I remember correctly, didn't Concubine Zhuang just say that you were glad that it was Concubine Chun who got into trouble this time? How come in the blink of an eye, you said that you have been praying for Concubine Chun and the heir?"
"This makes me a little confused..."
What it means is that Concubine Zhuang is two-faced, saying one thing to one person and another thing to another person, she is so hypocritical!
The vast majority of people present knew the true face of Concubine Zhuang, and Concubine Xuan really spoke out their thoughts!
A few people also looked at Concubine Xuan in surprise.
Although she was promoted to the head of a palace, she was always cautious in the palace and never offended anyone.
Why did you say such a thing in front of Concubine Zhuang today? It was totally unlike Concubine Xuan's usual style.
