Four hundred and fortieth chapters refused to give up
Yubi said in a deep voice: "The people in my palace, I know very well that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with them. The only one who is suspicious is Xia Qing. If she hadn't stopped the execution just now, maybe she would have told the truth at this moment."
There is no need for us to question the name of the envoy here."
Xianyue's face darkened and she said, "By saying this, Yubi is blaming me?"
"I don't dare. I'm just curious. Why did my concubine appear so coincidentally as soon as I summoned Xia Qing? Is it really a coincidence, or is my concubine simply here for Xia Qing?!"
"I have nothing to do with this matter. If Concubine Yu insists on not believing it, I can't do anything about it." As soon as Xianyue finished speaking, Concubine Yu took over and said: "Since it has nothing to do with it, please sit aside quietly and don't interfere with Xia Qing.
One thing."
Xianyue said in a cold voice: "I have taken care of the Sixth Palace according to the emperor's imperial decree, but Yubi wants me to ignore this matter. Not only does Yubi not take me seriously, but the emperor doesn't either."
Concubine Yu refused to give in and said, "I don't dare. I just want to find out who is hiding in the dark to harm me and my unborn baby."
Xianyue stroked the Zhai bird embroidered with silver thread on her sleeve and said in a condensing voice: "I have made it very clear that the trial must be tried together and the blame must be held accountable together. This is only fair."
Yubi turned blue with anger and said: "But they have nothing to do with this, why should they share the blame?"
"Why are you so sure that they have nothing to do with this, and why do you think it's related to Xia Qing, just based on your own opinion? If this is the case, I'm sorry that I can't just sit aside and not interfere with this matter, as Yubi said.
.”
Yubi was so angry that she couldn't speak, and there was a strong contraction in her abdomen. She took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and then said: "Since the empress and the concubine cannot agree with each other's actions, why not
Invite the emperor to deal with this matter."
Xianyue's expression changed slightly and said: "Now that the night is getting darker, I'm afraid that the emperor has already rested, so it is better not to disturb him again."
Concubine Yu noticed the change in Xianyue's expression and became more and more unwilling to give up. She said, "I believe that the emperor also hopes to find the person who intends to harm the emperor's heirs as soon as possible." After saying that, without waiting for Xianyue to say anything, she immediately said: "Xiao Quanzi, go immediately.
Yangxin Hall invites the emperor to come over."
"Hey." Xiao Quanzi left immediately, fearing that if he walked slower, he would be blocked by Xianyue. After he left, Xianyue and Yubi never spoke again. The atmosphere in the palace was so heavy that it made people breathless.
Come.
I don't know how long it took, but there were rapid footsteps outside the hall, and several figures came into the hall from far to near. It was Hongli, with Jin behind him. She must be sleeping with her tonight, so she followed him.
When Hongli saw Xianyue, he let out a light sigh and said, "Is the imperial concubine here too?"
Xianyue lowered her eyes and said: "Yes, I wanted not to disturb the emperor about Yu concubine, but Yu concubine felt that I was being frank and selfish and could not trust me, so I could only invite the emperor here and hope that the emperor would forgive me."
"
"It's okay." With that said, Hongli came to the bed and said with concern: "Xiao Quanzi told me that someone wanted to harm you and the child in your belly, but what happened a month ago when you almost fell into the water? The murderer was found.
?”
Yubi shook her head and said: "I don't have a clue about that matter yet, now it's another matter."
Hongli exclaimed in shock: "Is someone trying to harm you mother and son again?"
Facing Hongli's inquiry, Concubine Yu sobbed: "Since I became pregnant, I have been harmed time and time again. I just want to have children for the emperor. Why are there people who can't tolerate my mother and son? Wow..."
Hongli stroked the tears from her face and said, "Stop crying now. Tell me what's going on."
Jin said from the side: "As soon as the emperor heard that something happened to you mother and son, he was so worried that he hurried over. Please tell me, concubine Yu."
Concubine Yu choked up and told the story, and then said in a painful voice: "The reason why I became so delicious and fat is because of the appetizing and food-increasing medicines mixed in the water. The imperial doctor Fang came to treat me.
When I checked my pulse, I said that the child in my belly is too big, and I am afraid it will not be easy to give birth to it. Maybe... maybe there will be two lives." When she said the last sentence, she couldn't help crying again.
Hongli was shocked and angry, and said in a cold voice: "Someone actually added appetizing and food-increasing medicine to the Yuquan mountain water, and wanted to harm you mother and son. They really have evil intentions."
Jin said with a look of shock: "According to what Concubine Yu said, this medicine...didn't it take a long time?"
"According to my concubine's guess, this medicine started to be poured into the water after I returned to Beijing, and it was discovered by me today." At this point, she pulled Hongli's sleeve and cried: "Your Majesty
, will something happen to my concubine and my child, will they die?"
Hongli hurriedly reassured him: "No, as long as I am here, I will definitely protect your mother and son's safety. Don't think too much."
"It's not that I'm thinking wildly, but that Imperial Physician Fang told me clearly that Imperial Physician Zhou is here now, and he must be able to diagnose it. If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can ask him."
Seeing Hongli looking over, Zhou Minghua quickly lowered his head and said, "If you go back to the emperor, concubine Yu, mother and son will be fine for the time being."
"For the time being?" Hongli frowned and said, "What does this mean?"
"This..." Zhou Minghua said bravely: "The fetus in Concubine Yu's belly is too big. When she gives birth in October, I'm afraid it will be... difficult to give birth!"
Concubine Yu cried and cried: "Your Majesty, not only did I give birth in October, but even now, I often feel out of breath. It is simply worse than death."
Jin quickly said: "Concubine Yu, please don't open or shut your mouth or you will die. Otherwise, you will attract bad luck."
Yubi didn't speak, only cried sadly from the side. Hongli patted the back of her hand and said, "Yeah, don't always say such things. With so many imperial doctors here, they will definitely find a way to keep you mother and son safe."
After saying this, he added: "Have you ever found the person who drugged the water?"
Concubine Yu wiped away her tears and said: "The water in my concubine's palace has always been delivered from Xinzheku, and the person responsible for delivering water is the palace maid named Xia Qing. She is the most suspicious, but no matter how I find out about it, I
She refused to tell the truth despite her emotions. In desperation, I had no choice but to torture her to force her to tell the truth. Who would have thought that by such a coincidence, the imperial concubine would come?
, stopped the concubine from being executed, saying that Xia Qing would definitely not poison her water; he also said that if there was to be a trial, the people in the concubine’s palace would have to be interrogated together, because they also had the opportunity to drug her, the imperial concubine.
In doing so, it is clear that I am partial to Xia Qing. I have no choice but to ask the emperor to come here to seek justice for my mother and son."
Hearing this, Hongli frowned more and more tightly, his eyes fell on Xianyue, and said: "Why is the imperial concubine not allowed to torture the concubines?"
