Concubine Yu said with a grateful look on her face: "Your Majesty is worried, they are very efficient in their work and can be of great help."
"That's good. I was worried that the people they sent out in a hurry were not doing things properly." With that said, Xianyue turned and said, "Concubine Yi knows that Concubine Yu almost had a miscarriage yesterday, and she is very concerned about her.
I came to see you early in the morning and said that you would like to come together to visit Concubine Yu."
A strange color flashed across Yubi's eyes, and a look of gratitude appeared on her face, "Concubine Yi is very interested. In fact, after resting for the night, I am no longer in serious trouble."
Huang endured the displeasure in her heart and said: "I came in a hurry and didn't prepare anything. I will ask Jinping to send some blood swallows to replenish Yubi's health later. I hope Yubi doesn't dislike it."
"Your Majesty is too polite, I really deserve it." As soon as Concubine Yu finished her words, Xiayue said: "Since it is Concubine Yi's heart, Concubine Yu just accepts it, but by refusing like this, she became a sister.
Concubine Yi entered the palace in the sixth year of Emperor Yongzheng's reign, and Concubine Yu entered the palace in the ninth year of Emperor Yongzheng's reign. The three of us have been sisters for at least nine years. Although we are not biological siblings, we are still very different. Concubine Yu, do you think so?
?”
Concubine Yu was extremely grateful and said: "What you said is absolutely true. It is truly a blessing for me to have two empresses to take care of me."
After Xianyue and Mrs. Huang sat down on the chairs brought by the palace attendants, they said: "Since we are as close as sisters, I have a question, and I hope that my sister, Yubi, can answer it for me."
Concubine Yu said meekly: "As long as I know something, I will definitely tell you everything I know."
"Okay." Xianyue nodded slightly and said something that made Yubi pale in horror: "Since Yubi has doubts about Concubine Yi, why didn't she tell her in front of me and wait until I left?
Tell the emperor alone? If this is the case
Concubine Yu’s so-called closeness as sisters makes me really sad. There is also Concubine Yi. Although she has some misunderstandings with you, it is not a big hatred. In addition, Concubine Yi has always been kind to others. How could she do this?
Things are coming."
Concubine Yu regained her composure, forced out a smile, and said, "I have never told the emperor these things. Where did you two ladies hear these unfounded words?"
Mrs. Huang couldn't help but said: "Whether it's true or not, Concubine Yu knows best, so why bother showing off here."
"I really don't have it, I..." Before Yubi could continue, Xianyue said: "Well, we both know it well, and Yubi's continued denial will only make me feel that you are even more hypocritical.
.Actually..." She sneered and said: "
Sisterhood and friendship are not worth mentioning in the eyes of Concubine Yu. Back then, Concubine Yu had a good relationship with Fucha Wanxiu and had a deep friendship, but in the end it was nothing more than intentional use. Even after Fucha Wanxiu died,
He will also harm her surviving son."
Concubine Yu slowly lowered her face and said in a cold voice: "If the imperial concubine is here just to say these words to me, then I have already heard this. Please come back."
Xianyue ignored her words and said directly: "The reason why you refused to express your doubts about Concubine Yi in front of me yesterday was not just because you were worried that I would help Concubine Yi speak; it was because you suspected that the whole thing was
I conspired with Concubine Yi to harm the dragon fetus in your womb, am I right?"
Yubi's face became more and more ugly. She didn't expect that Xianyue was so powerful that he could see through her mind all of a sudden. Just as she was thinking about how to deal with it, Xianyue's voice came again, "Whether Yubi believes it or not, I
I want to tell you that this incident has nothing to do with me or Concubine Yi. Given time, I will definitely get to the bottom of it for Concubine Yu."
At this moment, Yubi had calmed down and said with a sneer: "No one will admit that they have done something evil. How can the two empresses be an exception?"
Xianyue was not angry because of her words, and said with a faint smile: "It seems that you have made up your mind that you don't believe it. Just pretend that I didn't say anything. Concubine Yu can take care of herself."
After watching Xianyue and the others leave, Yubi stared at Dongmei and Xiaoquanzi and said coldly: "Who leaked what I said?"
Dongmei and Xiao Quanzi shook their heads repeatedly, and Dongmei even said: "Without the permission of the master, I will never dare to spread the word of the master. I hope the master will learn from it."
Yubi said sternly: "At that time, apart from the emperor and me, you two were the only ones with Sixi. If it weren't for you, would it be possible that he would be the emperor?"
"It's really not what I said." After saying this, Xiao Quanzi suddenly said: "I remember, last night, the emperor rested in Chonghua Palace. Could it be that... he was really the emperor?"
Concubine Yu said with an ugly face: "What are you talking about? The emperor is resting in Chonghua Palace, why don't I know?"
Xiao Quanzi hurriedly knelt down and said, "My slave deserves to die. I was worried that my master would cause fetal distress, so I didn't dare to tell the truth before."
"Concubine Yi!" Concubine Yu punched the bed hatefully and said sternly: "After such a thing happened, she was able to coax the emperor to stay at Chonghua Palace and tell her all my suspicions. What a great skill!
"
Dongmei hurriedly advised: "Master, please calm down. Dr. Zhou once said that you must not get excited, otherwise it will be troublesome if you have fetal gas again. Maybe Concubine Xian and the others came today just to deliberately anger the master.
You must not fall into their tricks."
Yubi caressed her bulging belly and tried to calm herself down. She nodded and said, "You are right. The most important thing now is to give birth to this child safely. The rest can be left for later."
After Yubi's breath became calmer, Xiao Quanzi said cautiously: "Master, what happened at Linyuan Pond..."
Yubi took a deep breath and said: "Let them investigate. Whoever they find out is who they are. I won't ask. Whoever has harmed me or targeted me, I know it well and can wait for it."
I will not let anyone go." At this point, she sneered and said, "Concubine Xian.
They rely on favor and think they can cover the sky with one hand in the harem. Little do they know that favor can be as thick as heaven in one day or as thin as paper in one night. It is nothing at all. It can really guarantee a lifetime of glory.
The one you love is always a child, especially a child who can inherit the throne."
In the days that followed, Concubine Yu was just like this. She no longer asked about Linyuanchi, nor did she mention Chonghua Palace in front of Hongli. She just kept her peace of mind and raised her child.
However, even though she didn't mention it, the investigation couldn't be stopped. Just because there were too few clues connecting the paper lotus and the pebbles, and because few people passed by Linyuan Pond, the matter was stuck for a while, and no progress was made for a long time.
The spring light becomes brighter and brighter as time goes by. Willow trees sprout young buds, and from time to time an oriole sits on the treetops with its melodious and ethereal cries. In the imperial garden, flowers are blooming first, and butterflies are flying among the flowers.
