Mrs. Hu stared with red eyes and said with gritted teeth: "I will never forgive anyone who killed Yong Yue, never!"
Wei Jingxuan crawled to Hongli's feet and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, don't be deceived by Concubine Shu. Everything is her plan. If she didn't mean it, why would she insist on using crab meat? All my concubines were harmed by her.
minister
I'm unjust. Also, think about it, the Tenth Prince has never held a New Year's Eve banquet in the past two years, why would Concubine Shu suddenly get into trouble this time? Because her drunkard's intention is not to drink, she wants the Ninth Prince's
life!"
Yehenala did not scold the quarrel, but kept crying. Xianyue glanced at Wei Jingxuan and said coldly: "I remember that your concubine and Dr. Zhuang have always been very close. Dr. Zhuang is proficient in medical skills, so I think she will
I know that crab meat and jujube are in conflict.”
Zhuang Zheng didn't expect that Xianyue would bring the matter to him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said with cupped hands: "Returning to the Queen, although I have read many medical books, I don't know that the conflict between crab meat and jujube can cause cold and fever."
If Imperial Physician Xu and the others hadn't mentioned this matter just now, I wouldn't have known about it. Please give me a clear warning!"
Wei Jingxuan looked sad and aggrieved and said: "I am really unjust. Why don't you believe me? You even thought that I colluded with Dr. Zhuang." She looked at Hongli with a cold expression and said sadly: "And the emperor, how can you not even believe it?"
Do you also think that I am the one who did this? In your mind, is I such a vicious person who even harms young children?"
Before Hongli could say anything, Mrs. Hu rushed over, grabbed her hair tightly, slapped her and said: "Your cruelty is not limited to the cruelty of Yongjue. The matter of Concubine Yimin was basically caused by you instigating Xiao Yuanzi."
You deserve to die for what they did! Damn it!"
All the hatred and anger burst out at this moment. Even Xianyue couldn't make Mrs. Hu let go. At this moment, there was only one thought in her mind - kill Wei Jingxuan and kill Yehenala.
Revenge for her poor child!
When Hu was finally pulled away, Wei Jingxuan's face was covered with scars, and her left ear was even scratched by a sharp armor, with bright red blood oozing out.
Looking at the blood, Xianyue suddenly felt extremely ironic. Regardless of whether it was a person who did good deeds or a person who did many evil things, their blood was red, and their hearts were also red, confusing the eyes of the world.
Wei Jingxuan ignored the pain on her face, just looked at Hongli sadly, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, I have also been a mother, and I have also lost my beloved daughter and the flesh and blood in my belly. That kind of pain
, just like tearing out the human heart, even now, I still dream about those poor children, and every time I wake up, my pillow is wet with tears.
If it weren't for the emperor's kindness to me over the years, I would really like to go with them, so as not to endure the pain of remembering my son." As she spoke, she took a deep breath and said with a hint of absolute determination: "If...
My concubine's death can make the emperor feel relieved about the death of the ninth elder brother, and can calm the hatred in the heart of the imperial concubine, then... my concubine is willing to die!"
She knew that at this time, it was impossible to get rid of her dislike. Instead of just complaining, it would be better to put herself to death and live another life. She had followed Hongli for so many years and knew that Hongli's biggest weakness was
Chongqing; when Mingyu did such a heinous thing, after Mingyu died, he ignored it and rewarded her with a great honor.
Today, Hongli's weakness is her only chance of survival. As long as she can survive, she will definitely find an opportunity to pay off today's debt to Yehenala in the future!
Sure enough, Wei Jingxuan's words caused a hint of hesitation on Hongli's cold face. At this time, Mao Gui suddenly kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, this servant can prove that the master really did not want to harm the ninth elder brother."
Honglixuan raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you prove it?"
Mao Gui swallowed and said, "Master learned to make jujube and yam cakes many days ago. At that time, the menu for the banquet should not have come out yet. In other words, the master did not know that there would be crab meat soup dumplings at the banquet.
"As for dim sum, if the emperor doesn't believe it, you can go to Yongshou Palace and ask, everyone in the kitchen knows about it."
Mao Gui's words made Wei Jingxuan breathe a sigh of relief. That's right. How could she have forgotten this? After all, this minion is still of some use.
Mrs. Hu sneered and said: "They are all Wei Jingxuan's palace servants. They have already been sick early in the morning. They are not trustworthy at all!"
"No!" Mao Gui thought nervously: "If the slave remembers correctly, because the master wanted to sift out the jujube skin, he specially asked the slave to go to the imperial kitchen to get a fine-eye sieve. The empress can invite Xiao Qiuzi from the imperial kitchen.
Confrontation."
After Xiao Qiuzi came to Changchun Palace, it was proved that Mao Gui's words had indeed been borrowed from the fine mesh sieve in the imperial kitchen many days ago, and Mao Gui had mentioned at that time that Wei Jingxuan wanted to make jujube mud and yam cake.
Mrs. Hu excitedly pointed at Xiao Qiuzi and said: "No way, you must be colluding with Wei Jingxuan to help them speak!"
Xiao Qiuzi hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, what I said is true. There were originally seven fine-eye sieves in the imperial kitchen, but now there are only six left. If you have any doubts, you can go to the imperial kitchen to count them."
"If I say it's impossible, it's impossible. She did it on purpose. She must have done it on purpose." Mrs. Hu repeated the last sentence with a ferocious face. If looks could kill, Wei Jingxuan would have died a thousand times now.
Seeing Hongli frowning and saying nothing, Wei Jingxuan threw herself at his feet and cried: "Your Majesty, at this moment, you still don't want to believe me? I am really innocent!"
Hongli lowered his eyes and stared at her, and suddenly said: "You said it was Concubine Shu who asked you to make the jujube paste and yam cake?"
Yehenala was already uneasy because of Xiao Qiuzi's appearance. When she heard Hongli ask this question, her heart almost jumped out of her throat. Worse, the situation... was beginning to go against her. Yehenala
He clutched the handkerchief tightly and tried hard to think of a way out of the predicament.
Wei Jingxuan glanced at Yehenala with hatred and said: "Yes, if it weren't for Concubine Shu's words, I would never have made those snacks. I didn't think too much about it at the time. Now that I think about it, Concubine Shu would have made it a long time ago."
There was a premeditated plan to harm Brother Jiu, and
Putting the blame on the concubine; if not, how could she force Manager An to use crab meat to make soup dumplings? Also, several elder brothers in the palace have contracted cold and fever, why are the ten elder brothers safe?
It’s okay, Your Majesty, don’t you think there are a lot of doubts?”
Seeing Hongli looking over, Yehenara quickly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please don't listen to Wei's words. If it was really my concubine who did it, I would not take the initiative to tell you about the crab meat. As for my brother,
, except for Yongyong, the third elder brother is fine, is he also responsible for harming the ninth elder brother?"
"Because you know that even if you don't say it, Mr. An will say it, so you take the lead and make the emperor think that this matter really has nothing to do with you. As for the third elder brother..." Wei Jingxuan sneered: "Maybe he was an accident.
