Chapter 183 Agree to take a concubine!

Grandma Lu's eyes went dark when she heard this, and she quickly held her hand on the wall next to her.

He calmed down for a moment and then ran back. If the gifted person in this palace died in the palace for no reason, it would be a serious crime to be beheaded.

I just walked too fast, and when I got to the door, I tripped over my feet and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the door was open and my head only hit the curtain and was not injured.

Otherwise, breaking your head at such an old age is no joke.

Even so, a thud was still heard in the house.

"What's going on?" Mrs. He didn't hear clearly what the person below was reporting. Maybe it must be something big that made Nanny Lu lose her composure like this, so she immediately stood up and prepared to take a look.

I was trying to help the girl down, but when I saw that Nanny Lu had fallen, several people hurriedly rushed to help her.

Before Mrs. He went out, she saw Grandma Lu limping in with her hands on her waist, "Master, go and have a look. Something happened to Empress Liangdi's people."

When He heard this, his face immediately darkened, he pursed his lips tightly, and hurried out without saying a word.

All the masters hurriedly walked towards the second room.

The sky was getting dark, and the boy on the roadside was already standing in front of the fireworks. As he walked along, he could imagine what a grand scene it would be like when the fireworks finally let go.

But unfortunately, with such a big thing happening in the house, the fireworks naturally became a decoration.

When we arrived at the second-bedroom side courtyard, we could hear the cry of the maid inside from a distance.

He calmed down and then stepped in.

The palace maid who had the accident was now lying on the ground. Because she suddenly fell down and there was no result yet, she was naturally not covered with a white cloth. The maid's face was blue, especially her lips, which were frighteningly black.

Even if everyone is not a widower or a doctor, seeing this situation, they can guess that there must be a reason for the palace maid to behave like this.

The last government doctor was kicked out of the government after an accident, so the Duke's government was naturally cautious about using a government doctor again, so Shen Qiuhe found him from Dali Temple.

He should be better at dealing with such sudden accidents than ordinary doctors.

At this moment, he checked up and down, and then inserted the silver needle into each of the maid's acupuncture points.

Everyone also knew what he was doing. Looking at the palace maid, they didn't know whether she was dead or not. If she was dead, he was doing what a man should do and didn't ask any questions.

After a while, the doctor got up and whispered something in Shen Qiuhe's ear. Shen Qiuhe nodded, and then waved his people to move the maid into the back room.

Then he turned his head and looked at He, "The one down there is a bit ugly. Don't scare mother."

He thought he wanted to inspect it more deeply, so he didn't think much about it. He just said, "Don't make it too hard for your eyes."

If Empress Liangdi wanted to send someone over, it would be too difficult to catch people's eyes, and they would definitely be even more angry.

"My son will be spared." Shen Qiuhe nodded in agreement.

After He finished talking to Shen Qiuhe, it was naturally time to interrogate another maid.

Only the two of them lived in the second-bedroom side courtyard. Although this matter was arranged deliberately by Qiao, after all, it was related to the Duke's palace, and He couldn't really ignore it, so she knew it well.

Although this palace maid serves the Liang Di Empress, and naturally has a higher status than the maids in the inner house, in the final analysis, they are also serving others. After all, they have not entered the palace, so Qiao's intention to follow the rules and not arrange for anyone to serve them is justified.

So at this moment, if something happens to one, you can only ask the other.

But obviously, the other one was frightened, saying that it was Shen Qiuhe's birthday today, and they also heard that there would be a big event today, and even joked that they would ask the second wife's wife for permission to go outside to watch the fireworks.

When the discussion was going on happily, who knew she suddenly fell to the ground.

The maidservant was frightened and immediately shouted that he was dead. The people waiting outside heard the noise and rushed in.

Next, this is the scene that everyone sees.

The palace maid's answer was fairly clear, but the details of why she fainted while speaking were still open to debate.

It's just that the people in the palace can't torture others, so they can only be taken away first, and then they can be questioned carefully after their thoughts calm down.

What we have to do now is not to touch the things in this house, and wait for the doctor to check and determine the cause before making other plans.

The sky became dark and the wind started blowing.

The newly lit lantern was swaying in the wind. No matter how many candles were lit in the room, it would not be very bright because it was not completely dark yet.

He slowly turned around and looked at Qiao Guxin coldly, "Look at what's going on!"

Qiao Guxin stepped forward and bowed slightly, "This matter happened with the second wife, and the daughter-in-law has no one else to blame."

At this moment, it seemed that the hairpin in Qiao Gu's heart was brighter than the candlelight.

"There is no shirking the responsibility. Well, there is no shirking the responsibility. However, your frivolous words caused our Duke's mansion to separate from Empress Liangdi. How do you think we should deal with such a big matter?" He's voice suddenly rose.

Liang Di had kindly given two people to her, but it seemed that there was a high probability that the palace maid would not survive. One of them died before she even entered the house. What do you think?

He's eyes turned slightly, and then suddenly became sharp, "Or is it your handiwork?"

They had just gotten married, and no woman in the world would be willing to take a concubine for her husband. No matter what the relationship with her husband was, taking a concubine would be worse, and some would even affect their status.

Therefore, Qiao Guxin was the same as the rest of the world and was unwilling to take a concubine.

And after Qiao Guxin entered the door, He saw clearly that Qiao Guxin was a tough person to deal with. He was already very courageous, and if he suddenly became confused and did something like this, it would not be unreasonable.

possible.

"Mother misunderstood." Before Qiao Guxin could say anything, Shen Qiuhe suddenly stood up and stood in front of Qiao Guxin.

Qiao Guxin turned her head to look at Shen Qiuhe, and then looked away again.

"Misunderstanding, why do you say there is a misunderstanding? Who in this family would do such a thing except her?" The more He said, the more angry he became.

In the past, Ms. Zheng was willing to fight with Qiao Guxin, but because of the doctor's matter, they all saw clearly how Ms. Zheng kept herself low. Qiao Guxin was considered invincible in this courtyard, naturally.

I will focus on these two maids.

Shen Qiuhe made a compilation with both hands, "My mother is above me, and my son is willing to guarantee his wealth and life. This matter was definitely not done by Mr. Qiao."

After Qiao Guxin heard this, her hand that was twirling the ring boringly stopped abruptly, and then returned to her expressionless expression.

The four words "worth and life" were too strong. He put his hands on the table and was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"Mom, please calm down. What Qiu He said is that siblings know each other in general, and what happened today is probably a misunderstanding." Now that Zheng has realized her mistake, she naturally wants to suppress the conflicts in the family and reach out to help He.

, probably thinking of He's previous indifference, he took his hand back before he even touched him, "The most important thing now is to think about how to explain to the empress first."

"How to explain, of course I, an old man, will have to lick my face and kowtow to admit my mistake!" He said angrily. Apart from this, how else can he turn Qiao Gu's heart to the government?

Qiao Guxin can be shameless, but where should Shen Qiuhe put his face?

After hearing what Mrs. He said, Mrs. Zheng shook her head slightly and sighed, "My daughter-in-law said something that doesn't sound good, but it is the only way. If the mother admits her mistake again, Empress Liangdi will definitely be suspicious of her brothers and sisters. In addition, Empress Liangdi doesn't understand. Brothers and sisters, if you keep covering it up, you are afraid that the misunderstanding will get deeper and deeper."

After all, Qiao Guxin had just entered the house and was not familiar with Empress Liangdi.

Unlike Mrs. Zheng, although she didn't have much dealings with He Liangdi, she was an old man from the Duke's Mansion after all. She had never made any mistakes, so she was considered a good person.

After Zheng finished speaking, He didn't turn around, but Qiao Guxin understood instantly. Qiao Guxin immediately stood up from behind Shen Qiuhe, then clasped his hands and said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law thinks that my sister-in-law is right. Right now, there is only one way, and that is, something happened to this palace maid not at this time."

It just so happens that today's birthday is a big deal. It can be said that today is not only a birthday celebration for Shen Qiuhe, but also a concubine for Shen Qiuhe.

Originally, two people came in together, but who knew they got into a dispute, and that's when something happened.

Early tomorrow morning, they will send someone to report to Empress Liangdi. At least they will stabilize the person first and wait to find out the true nature of the matter before making a report as appropriate.

By that time, one was already a concubine in the Duke's palace.

Although the person was given by Liangdi, to become a person of the Duke of Guo's Mansion, she was first the concubine of the Duke of Guo's Mansion, and then the maid of the former Crown Prince Liangdi.

A concubine is naturally no longer qualified to enter the palace and meet her old master.

Although this method is bold, it can be reactive and proactive, and the progress of the matter is in their hands.

Moreover, it also solved the misunderstanding of Empress Liangdi. At least Qiao Gui agreed to take a concubine, so it was not jealousy.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Although He felt that this method was bold, there was no other way at the moment. For a moment, he felt that this suddenly ridiculous method was not bad at all.

Seeing what Qiao Guxin said, everyone's expressions immediately softened.

Only Shen Qiuhe, whose face was like drops of ink, was frighteningly black.

He slowly turned back and looked at the wife in front of him who he had just protected behind him, "What do you think of, is to take a concubine for me?"

Qiao Guxin's expression was calm, "Today's row of noodles is not an insult to the status of a palace official."

After hearing this, Shen Qiuhe suddenly laughed.

As the sky darkened, the room became brighter, but Shen Qiuhe's face remained gloomy, "There were fireworks all night long, the theater troupe was there to entertain me, and my wife prepared a good show. I can't fault anything."

Hearing what Shen Qiuhe said, Qiao Gu forced a smile on his face, "I'm afraid Dali Temple will take action regarding the poisoning today. Let Mr. Wang lead the people to investigate here. Let's go back to our respective houses." Just wait here."

The provincial people are all standing here, you guessing me and I guessing yours, but in the end there is no result.

Once there is a real clue, whoever did it will definitely not be able to escape.

As for the palace maid, Qiao Guxin let out a long sigh, "Looking at her, she is quite frightened. I'm afraid she won't be able to serve you."

So, it's just a formality.

"Just going through the motions, why go through the motions? I see today is an auspicious day." It's better to just do what needs to be done.

She's just a woman, it doesn't matter whether she serves or not.

Qiao Guxin didn't expect Shen Qiuhe to say that. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately looked at He and said, "My daughter-in-law thinks it's okay."

He looked at Shen Qiuhe and then at Qiao Guxin.

It was obviously Qiao Guxin's idea. Firstly, it was to calm everyone down, and secondly, it was to prove her innocence. However, looking at it, there seemed to be a bit of pride in her words, as if she was standing on a high place, and her purpose was about to be achieved. .
