"Since the Emperor let Xia Qing leave and said those words, everything should be fine." Xianyue was also a little confused in her heart. She clearly saw a strong murderous intention in Hongli's eyes, so how could he downplay it in the end?
Forget it, it's really weird.
Although everyone was still a little confused, they still smiled when they thought of Xia Qing saving a life. Only Xia Qing herself kept frowning tightly. Xianyue said softly: "Still thinking about Wei Jingxuan?"
Xia Qing gritted her teeth and said: "Yes, I can't figure it out. They obviously killed the queen and threw her into the water. Why is there water in the queen's throat?"
Qi Kuan asked tentatively: "Is there something wrong with the hairpin? The water is actually flowing out of the hairpin?"
A Luo shook his head and said: "The silver hairpin was pulled out from Xia Qing's hair. How could Ji You and the others have done anything with it? In other words... the queen really drowned."
Qi Kuan frowned and said, "So, we guessed wrong? They didn't kill the queen?"
Xia Qing insisted: "No, it must be them, but I don't know what method they used to make the queen drink a lot of water after she died."
Xianyue walked up to Xia Qing, stared at her and said: "From this moment on, no matter how much I hate Wei Jingxuan, you are not allowed to mention those things again, let alone in front of the emperor, remember?"
"
"Why?" Faced with Xia Qing's inquiry, Xianyue said: "You are lucky to be able to save a life today, so you must not say anything more before there is evidence, otherwise it will offend Sheng Yan. When the time comes, who will
I can't even save you."
Xia Qing said stubbornly: "I don't need anyone to save me. I just want Wei Jingxuan and Concubine Yu to pay for the lives of my family!" From the day she decided to take revenge, she decided to give up her life.
"I know that you don't care about life, but you have no evidence, and now you have even guessed the cause of the queen's death wrong, so no matter what you say, the emperor will not believe it, life... will only be lost in vain, and not only
Even if you are alone, I will also be involved."
Xia Qing stared at her for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said, "Master, do you want me to let Wei Jingxuan go?"
Facing her unwilling gaze, Xianyue said slowly: "Yes, at least don't conflict with her again if you are not sure."
After looking at her for a long time, Xia Qing suddenly turned around and left. This move aroused Zhichun's dissatisfaction, "My master is doing it for her own good, but she is so ungrateful. It's really too much."
Xianyue shook her head and said: "Forget it, let her go. I thought I could get rid of Wei Jingxuan this time, but it ended up like this. I don't allow her to take revenge again, so I must feel uncomfortable."
Zhichun wrinkled his nose and said, "Even if this is the case, she shouldn't be so presumptuous; as long as the master is tolerant, if it were another person, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to tolerate her long ago."
After he calmed down, Aluo said: "Master, how come the emperor is so tolerant this time? I think we all can't escape punishment."
Xianyue thought deeply: "I can't guess clearly, and the emperor's heart is unpredictable. It's absolutely true."
Qi Kuan interjected: "But there is one thing that I can see clearly." Under Xianyue's puzzled eyes, he said: "The reason why the emperor is so merciful is all for the sake of the master."
Zhichun nodded in agreement and said: "That's true, but... why did the emperor suddenly change his temper? Could it be that he was woken up by being scolded by the eldest brother before?"
Xianyue scolded lightly: "Talk too much. Are you allowed to say these things? If others hear you, you will be in trouble."
Zhichun stuck out his tongue and dared not speak. At this moment, the palace servant walked in quickly, slapped Qian'er and said: "Master, Ji You has been killed by the emperor's rod."
Hearing this, Xianyue was shocked. A Luo came to his senses first and said: "Why did the emperor suddenly kill Ji You with a stick? Also, how is Wei Jingxuan?"
The palace man lowered his eyes and said, "I don't know what the reason was. As for Wei Jingxuan, she is fine. Only Ji You was killed with the stick."
After signaling the palace attendants to go down, Xianyue said: "If I have guessed correctly, the emperor's sudden death of Ji You with a stick should be related to his damaging the queen's body."
When she mentioned it like this, A Luo also thought about it and said with deep understanding: "Yes, the emperor always attaches great importance to the queen. Although Ji You didn't mean it, he still made a mistake, and the emperor will not forgive him."
Qi Kuan said reluctantly: "Why can't it be Wei Jingxuan? If she died, we would save a lot of trouble."
Xianyue smiled coldly and said: "With her mind, how could she do such a thing herself? Ji You should be a chess piece that she had thought of early on. If she can keep it, she will keep it. If she can't, she will abandon it."
Zhichun said in astonishment: "Aren't she and Ji You very close? How could she regard him as an abandoned child?"
A Luo shook his head and said: "You are still a little naive. How can a person like her be really kind to others? In her eyes, everyone is a pawn. Look at this time, she can play with us."
It’s unfortunate that my master has good fortune, but the imperial doctor of the Song Dynasty is not so lucky.”
Hearing A Luo mention Song Zihua, Xianyue felt guilty. If it weren't for her, Song Zihua would not have ruined his future and been exiled from the army. She was the one who harmed him. After a moment of silence, she said: "Help me go to the Imperial Hospital. I want to
See the Imperial Physician Song again. In addition, Qi Kuan, please take all the banknotes from my drawer."
Qi Kuan responded, and after taking out the banknote, he and A Luo helped Xianyue to the Taiyuan Hospital. When they arrived, they happened to see the guards escorting Song Zihua, who looked dull, out. The official hat and uniform on his body were already gone.
He was removed and changed into a prison uniform.
Xianyue stopped and glanced at Qi Kuan, who nodded knowingly, walked over and cupped her hands towards the two guards and said: "You two, my master would like to have a few words with Imperial Physician Song, please do it for your convenience.
It won't be long." As he said that, he quietly stuffed a banknote into their hands.
How dare the guards not sell the honor of the imperial concubine, not to mention the banknotes, so they immediately nodded in agreement and asked Qi Guanwan and Song Zihua to come over.
Looking at Song Zihua who was dressed in prison uniform, Xianyue sighed heavily and said, "It was me who harmed you. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be like this."
Song Zihua did not show too much anger or unwillingness. In fact, he was calmer than Xianyue imagined. He shook his head and said: "My queen, there is no need to feel guilty. I have already expected this day. Speaking of it, I can save my life.
This is a great blessing among misfortunes, and thanks to the empress interceding for me." After saying that, he smiled bitterly and said: "I almost forgot that I am a sinner now, not an imperial doctor, so I am not qualified to be called a minister."
The more he said this, the more guilty Xianyue felt, saying: "You will feel aggrieved for a while, and when I think of a way, I will ask the emperor to forgive your sin and let you return to the Taiyuan Hospital. In addition..." She
He took the banknote and handed it over and said: "These are some money, so you can keep it alive so that you can spread it around and save yourself some hardship."
