Coming here in a hurry, I didn’t expect such a scene!
Alarm bells rang in King Zhan's heart.
Although I didn't see the person clearly, I felt that this matter must be related to him!
He shouted immediately.
"Escort! Escort!"
Seeing what he was doing, the Fourth Prince simply found it funny.
Everyone is dead, so why should we protect them?
If others didn't know better, they would think he was such a loyal and patriotic man.
Probably because everyone present looked at him with indifferent expressions, King Zhan also felt that he had gone too far.
So he opened his mouth and said to the emperor.
"Old minister, I am rude. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
After saying that, he gave the palace maid next to him a vicious look.
"What are you doing? Why don't you help the imperial concubine up?"
"Yes Yes!"
The frightened palace maids Qin He and Qin Liu kept swallowing their saliva at this moment to prevent themselves from looking at the dead person.
Then he used all his strength to help Concubine Lin, who was lying limply on the ground, up.
The emperor sneered in his heart.
Over the years, many people inside and outside the palace have lost their lives at their hands, but they haven't even blinked an eye. At this moment, they are actually acting pitifully.
In fact, it's no wonder that Concubine Lin was frightened.
After all, sometimes ordering someone to be killed is just a light word.
Someone will deal with it and deal with the aftermath for them.
But this was the first time I had witnessed such a tragic death, so I was naturally a little frightened.
But no matter how he lost his composure, after he recovered, he still suppressed the fear in his heart and spoke to the emperor with tears in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, what is going on? Who is this person? Why is he here? And he died so horribly?"
A series of questions asked what King Zhan was thinking.
He guessed most of them correctly, but he still had to put on a strange look on his face.
The emperor seemed unable to see these situations.
He sat down on the rosewood armchair and said calmly.
"I find it strange to say that this person is here to complain."
"Complain?"
Concubine Lin's surprise did not seem to be staged, but rather King Zhan forced himself to calm down.
Could it be that Yan Datou had a wrong string?
Is it possible that he didn't expose this matter during the day, but now he came to the emperor to bite him?
Isn't he afraid that the family members he holds in his hands will be killed?
To be so ignorant of life and death.
"Well, the person you are complaining to is the imperial concubine."
"Concubine?"
Concubine Lin looked in disbelief. She had never met this person before. He was suing her?
Or tell it by fate?
This couldn't help but remind her of the scene she had heard from her grandmother about the stubborn old ministers who remonstrated with the emperor to the death and spilled blood in the palace.
It simply gives people a chill down the back.
The emperor's words made Prince Zhan frown at once.
Logically speaking, shouldn’t this spectacle be investigated?
Why did it suddenly turn to the imperial concubine?
The fourth prince on the side was also confused, but he looked like he was watching a show.
As early as ten years ago, he could hardly guess the emperor's thoughts.
In this situation, someone suddenly takes care of it.
It's really unheard of.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what this person is suing me for? I don't even know him."
His face was full of anxiety, but the emperor still had the same expression as before.
"This person said that the imperial concubine bribed the medical woman next to Concubine Lan and often drugged Concubine Lan, which was why Concubine Lan gave birth to the second princess on the Zhongyuan Festival. The second princess's body and bones were also weak because of the drug.
reason."
"What!"
As soon as these words came out, even Dong Yuzhong couldn't help but raise his head and look at the emperor twice.
Where is this all going?
We were obviously talking about spectacles, but why did we get involved in the matter of Empress Lan Fei giving birth to a daughter?
What plan did the emperor use?
He couldn't understand it anymore.
When Concubine Lin heard this, she immediately swore.
"Your Majesty, I am unjustly accused! That medical girl was sent to the palace by the Lan family themselves. She must have found out her life and background a long time ago. How can I still let my concubine find a loophole? Besides, Concubine Lan gave birth to a daughter.
At that time, didn’t I, my concubine, recuperate in Yaotai Pavilion due to trivial matters at home? How could I have any extra time to deal with Concubine Lan!"
The more he talked, the more excited he became, wishing that the man would come back to life immediately.
The two of them had to have a good confrontation to wash away her grievances!
She saw the emperor looking at her intently, motionless.
I thought the emperor believed what the man said, so he immediately knelt down and said.
"If what I said is false, then I will be trapped in the cold palace for the rest of my life, betrayed by everyone, and will not have a good death!"
The firmness of her tone actually made the Fourth Prince take a high look.
Unfortunately, the look in Lin Xingzhi's eyes was one of disgust.
When King Zhan saw that the emperor did not say a word, he thought about it and said a few words of help.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has sworn like this. I think this person set it up with malicious intent. Otherwise, why wouldn't he dare to confront your Majesty face to face? Why would he come here to remonstrate?"
"Oh? Prince Zhan has a sharp eye."
This playful remark made King Zhan couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
The emperor struck him with a stick and an ax, which actually knocked him out.
He could only say with a smile.
"Your Majesty is so complimentary."
The emperor looked at his respectful expression and looked up and down for a while.
Then he said something lightly.
"I will order people to investigate thoroughly about Concubine Lan. However, this reminds me of an old incident."
Old things?
Now when King Zhan heard about this old story, he felt very flustered.
But on the surface, I still have to pretend to be calm.
Concubine Lin acted calmly.
After all, what happened to Concubine Lan was indeed not her fault, so she was naturally not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night.
So I listened humbly to what the emperor said word for word.
"Back then, Duke Xu, the eldest prince and Queen Xu died of illness one after another. Is there some reason behind it that I don't know about? Even Concubine Lan could calculate the date of giving birth so accurately. It seems that there are many experts among the people?"
"If someone adds something that shouldn't be added to the bedrooms of my eldest prince and queen, the food, or even the medicine bowl..."
The emperor spoke slowly, and paused deliberately when he said this.
Concubine Lin's eyes averted for a moment, and she subconsciously pursed her lips.
The originally probing eyes suddenly burst into a cold light, and even his tone became unkind.
"Then I will dig deep into the ground to dig out the person who poisoned me. Not only will she be buried with her, but everyone who participated in this matter will go down there to apologize to the queen and the eldest prince!"
Hearing this, Concubine Lin's expression became a little uneasy.
If the emperor spoke like this on weekdays, she would naturally be prepared.
But these days, I was first grounded, and then treated coldly.
After finally regaining some warmth, I saw such a bloody scene again.
Complaints and suspicions.
No matter how good her mental quality is, she is still a little panicked at this moment.
