Aunt Song took a look over her head and said, "Yes, all the jade springs and mountains and waters in this palace are transported by Xin Zheku." After a pause, she asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, have you sent too little?
If this is the case, I will ask someone to send more tomorrow."
Yubi snorted coldly and said: "Are you really ignorant or are you pretending to be confused with me? I ask you, who asked you to mix medicine in the Yuquan mountain water to harm me?"
Hearing these words, Grandma Song was driven out of her mind. She shook her head repeatedly and said in a panic: "Where did your Majesty hear these words? This is absolutely not the case. This servant will never dare to do anything harmful to Your Majesty. I ask Your Majesty to warn you."
Concubine Yu said sternly: "The Imperial Physician Zhou personally tested it, and also hired ten palace officials to test it, and it proved that the water was added with an appetizing and food-increasing medicine. Can it be fake?"
Aunt Song said with a bitter face: "I really don't know anything. If I don't believe it, I can swear to God. If I make a false statement, I will be struck by thunder and die!"
Concubine Yu sneered and said: "It seems that you won't be able to do it without being punished. Well, I will help you!"
When she heard that Concubine Yu was going to be tortured, Mother Song became even more frightened and begged again and again, but Concubine Yu was not moved at all and ordered someone to fetch a stick. When she was about to be pulled down, Concubine Song said eagerly: "Mother, concubine Yu,
This servant really doesn’t know anything, but Xia Qing has been responsible for transporting the Yuquan landscape. Maybe she will know something, you might as well send her to ask."
"Xia Qing?" Concubine Yu repeated, "But the one who served in Kunning Palace before and was almost killed by the Queen's stick?"
Before Sister Song could answer, Dongmei already said: "Master, this slave has seen her before. It's her. After she was driven away from the Queen, she returned to Xinzheku."
Yubi thought for a moment and said: "Go and call her over, and search the place where she lives carefully. Don't miss any place."
After the palace attendants took the order and went down, Xianfu Palace was silent, and only the sound of the wind blowing the leaves outside could be heard. After an unknown period of time, Yubi suddenly said: "Who arranged for her to go back to Xinzheku?"
Dongmei replied: "It should be the arrangement of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but I heard that the reason why she was able to save her life under the Queen's staff was because Concubine Xian helped her with a few words of love. As for whether it is true or not, I don't know.
It’s unknown.”
"Concubine Xian..." After hearing these three words, Yubi's expression immediately became extremely ugly. If this is true, then Nala Xianyue saved Xia Qing's life, and Xia Qing will naturally be grateful to her.
He will do whatever he is told, including murdering himself and his unborn child.
She took all precautions, but she still failed to guard against it. She fell into Nala Xianyue's trap, which was really hateful;
However, since she knew about this, Nala Xianyue must pay the price; the noble concubine...hehe, she wants Nala Xianyue to not even be a noble!
Xiao Quanzi whispered from the side: "Master, do you want me to invite the emperor to come over?"
Concubine Yu raised her hand and said, "Don't worry, we will wait until I ask Xia Qing and have conclusive evidence."
After an unbearable wait, Xia Qing appeared in everyone's sight. The palace servant lowered his hand and said: "Master, I have searched Xia Qing's residence and found nothing."
Dongmei was about to speak after hearing this, but Yubi stopped her with a look. After a period of silence, Yubi slowly opened her mouth and said: "Xia Qing, do you know the reason why I sent you here right now?"
Xia Qing lowered her head and said: "I am ignorant and don't know your Majesty's intentions. Please make it clear."
"I heard that you were able to save your life under the Queen's staff because Concubine Xian said a few words of help. Is this true?"
Xia Qing followed her words and said, "Yes, I am able to live to this day only because of the pity of the noble concubine."
After getting Xia Qing's answer, Yubi became more sure of her suspicions. The matter about the Yuquan landscape must have been done by Xia Qing, the envoy of Nala Xiayue. She said coldly: "You have received her favor, so you have to do it for her."
Doing something against your conscience?”
Xia Qing glanced at her quickly, lowered her head and said, "I don't understand what I mean."
"I already know that you mixed appetizer and food-increasing medicine into the Yuquan mountain water used by me, with the intention of murdering me and the dragon fetus. There is also evidence to prove that Concubine Xian ordered you to do it; Xia Qing, I
The palace knows that you are not a person with a bad heart, so as long as you are willing to recruit from the truth, I can be lenient and let you live."
Yu Bin's words surprised everyone who heard them. In just a short time, there was no evidence to prove that Xia Qing was related to this matter, let alone Concubine Xian. Why did Yu Bin say such a thing?
"My Lady, you..." Nanny Song heard something was wrong and opened her mouth to speak. However, as soon as she said a few words, she was interrupted by Yu Bin with stern words, "Bold slave, who allowed you to speak? Why don't you shut up and retreat?"
To the side?!”
Before Sister Song could say anything, Xiao Quanzi had already pulled her up, then retreated to the door, and said in her ears in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If you dare to say another word again, I'll cut your hair carefully."
Tongue!"
Zhou Minghua watched all this silently. He had been in the palace for many years and his mind had been honed to be very clear. He had already realized before Sister Song opened her mouth that Yu Bing was trying to trick Xia Qing. If this matter was really Xia Qing's.
Qing was ordered to do this by Concubine Xian. If she suddenly hears such words at this moment, she will definitely panic and become confused. In order to save her life, she will definitely tell the truth.
Just as Zhou Minghua thought, Xia Qing was indeed so panicked that she even forgot the rule of not looking directly at her master. She was speechless and stared at Yubi blankly.
However, Zhou Minghua still guessed some things wrong. Xia Qing was even more surprised at this moment. Did he plot to kill her and the dragon fetus? Why did Yubi say this? It was just some appetizing and food-increasing medicines. She had also taken them herself. It was true.
How could it harm anyone? Why did she say that? What was going on?
A series of doubts were lingering in her heart, and when she was about to speak, she suddenly remembered that before the people from Yubi Palace came to tell her, Qi Kuan came to Xinzhe's library to retrieve those medicines, and what he told himself, could it be that... those medicines would really harm her?
Concubine Yu and the child in her belly, Concubine Xian has been taking advantage of her?
Thinking of this, Xia Qing's face became extremely ugly, her lips moved, and she made a weak sound, but she couldn't hear it clearly.
Concubine Yu saw all this in her eyes, and her voice became gentler, "What, have you thought clearly? I keep my word. As long as you take it seriously, I will spare you nothing."
Under her gaze, Xia Qing bit her lower lip tightly until she bit her lower lip until bloodshot eyes oozed out. Then she slowly let go and said, "I don't know what the empress is talking about. I have never been sent to the empress' palace before."
Nothing has been mixed into the Yuquan mountain water, and Concubine Xian has never given any instructions to the slaves."
