"Wei Jingxuan is just a palace servant, how can she control your family?" Zhichun Xu Yin had just died, and A Luo, who had never spoken a word, said: "Wei Jingxuan is a palace servant, but the person behind her is the queen. As the queen
It’s not a problem for the family’s power to control the life and death of several people.”
Zhichun spat and said disgustedly: "The queen is really capable of anything. Such a person is really not worthy of the emperor's repeated mercy on her."
Xianyue asked the doubt she had been holding in her heart, "How did you put the medicine in the food?"
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Xia Qing said truthfully: "Wei Jingxuan found the slave and threatened the lives of the slave's family, so that the slave could put the arsenic she gave her into Zhu Yong's meals within two days. The slave had never thought about it.
I tried to find a way, but unexpectedly it started raining the next day."
"Rain? What does this have to do with what you want to do? Could it be that it's raining?" Zhichun said casually, but Xia Qing actually nodded, "Yes, it's raining. When it's dark,
I managed to find a ladder and climb up the
After Sister Song brought the food, I opened the tiles where they placed the food, and then melted the arsenic into the rainwater and let it drip down. They thought it was a leak in the roof and did not expect it at all.
There will be arsenic mixed in."
No one could have imagined that the arsenic in the food eaten by Zhu Yong and the two people came from this way. Xia Qing's plan was really unbelievable.
Xianyue was the first to come to her senses and said, "I'm afraid even Wei Jingxuan herself can't come up with such an exquisite and exquisite method."
Xia Qing said sadly: "I don't want their lives, but if they don't die, my family will die. I have no choice."
"Why don't you come and tell me?" Faced with Xianyue's inquiry, Xia Qing shook her head and said: "I don't dare to take this risk. If they find out, my family will die; and... as far as I know, I
, the empress has no power outside the palace, so she can’t save my slave’s family at all.”
Xianyue remained silent. Xia Qing was telling the truth. Unless she told Hongli about the matter in advance, she could not stop it.
Zhichun said bitterly at the side: "God is really blind. Wei Jingxuan has done so many bad things, but he still let her live. Even the fifty big boards didn't kill her."
Xia Qing said with a cold expression: "She forced my hands to be stained with blood. I will never give up on this matter. She will definitely pay the price."
Xianyue could see the hatred in her heart and was afraid that she would do something extreme, so she said: "I will settle this debt with her on your behalf. Don't do anything wrong, lest you fail to get revenge and harm yourself instead.
She relies on the queen and her methods are ruthless, you will not be her opponent."
Xia Qing lowered her head and said: "Your Majesty, you don't blame me for killing them both. I am already grateful and don't dare to bother you anymore."
"Wei Jingxuan encouraged the queen to harm A Luo. For this account alone, I can't let her go, so I can't say trouble at all." At this point, she smiled slightly and said: "What's the matter? I don't believe that I can.
Can you deal with Wei Jingxuan?"
Xia Qing said quickly: "This is not what I meant, it's just..."
Xianyue raised her hand to interrupt her, "You are right, I have no power outside the palace, but as long as Wei Jingxuan is in the palace, I have ways to deal with her; not for anyone else, only for myself.
.”
Hearing this, Xia's eyes showed gratitude. She was smart and knew that Xianyue said this to make her feel better. She knelt down and said, "Thank you, my concubine."
"Get up." Xianyue thought for a moment and said: "While the Queen and Wei Jingxuan are confined in Kunning Palace, you'd better send a letter home to ask them to move out, so as to avoid Wei Jingxuan repeating his old tricks in the future.
Shi."
Xia Qing said quickly: "Yes, I have this plan as well."
"Okay, it's okay. You can go back. Since the person is dead, there is no point in blaming yourself. I will ask the eminent monk to recite the mantra of death for them. I hope they can be reborn in a good family in the next life and get rid of being a slave.
destiny."
Xia Qing thanked her again and left Yanxi Palace. After she left, Qi Kuan said in confusion: "Master, Xia Qing killed Zhu Yong and two people without telling you. Although she was forced by others, she was excusable.
, after all, she is unfaithful to you, you are already very kind without blaming her, why are you still so polite to her?"
Zhichun nodded repeatedly and said, "Isn't it true? If you hadn't managed to trick the queen out later, the queen would have escaped unscathed."
"She is not from this palace, how can we ask her to be as loyal as you, and this is when the lives of her family are at stake."
Zhichun said unconvinced: "But you have been kind to her for saving her life. If you receive a drop of kindness from others, you should repay her with a spring of water, let alone a life-saving kindness."
Looking at Zhichun's angry look, Xianyue chuckled and said: "You girl, I'm not even angry, so why are you angry? It's naturally easy to deal with Xia Qing, but firstly, she does have difficulties; secondly, I'm still angry
There are still five months left to rely on Xia Qing to do things. During this period, the medicine... must not be stopped."
A Luo said: "My slave, I see that Yugui is just over four months old and has become as fat as an ordinary pregnant woman who is seven or eight months old. If this continues, by the time she gives birth, the child in her belly will definitely be quite big."
Xianyue nodded slightly and said coolly: "Let her raise the child. The bigger the child, the better."
Qi Kuan and others all understood the meaning behind this sentence. Compared with Yu Guiren's matter, Xia Qing's matter is indeed not very important. After all, Xia Qing did not intentionally ruin the plan, and the matter has already passed, and there is no point in pursuing it further.
mean.
In the following days, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs were busy preparing for the concubine's canonization ceremony to be held on the 20th of next month. Although Gao was also canonized as a concubine, she was ill, so she did not have the canonization ceremony;
After Hongli ascended the throne, it was the first time for the imperial concubine canonization ceremony to be held, so it was particularly grand and careful.
In addition, good news began to come from Hong Zhou's side. After this period of contact, Hong Xi gradually lost his wariness towards him and began to talk to him about some things. However, it would take some time for the news to get to the core of his heart.
There were only four words in the letter that Hongli asked the secret agent to give to Hongzhou - be careful in everything!
He has no doubts about Hong Zhou's ability and loyalty, but is worried about his safety. If Hong Xi learns the truth, it will definitely be detrimental to Hong Zhou.
In early December, someone discovered a white deer in Huai'an Prefecture. After the local magistrate sent someone to inspect it, it was found that it was indeed a white deer, and there was a huge Ganoderma lucidum in its mouth, which was a sign of good luck. The magistrate immediately ordered someone to send it to Beijing.
, and stated in the memorial that this was because the emperor was Minghui and virtuous, so heaven sent auspiciousness.
After Hongli saw the memorial, he was extremely happy. No emperor did not want his achievements to be recognized by heaven. He was no exception. He immediately ordered people to build a deer house next to the royal stable to raise the white deer.
