When Concubine Li heard that Concubine Shu was not going, she immediately said, "I also feel dizzy. I will ask for leave to discuss matters today."
If Concubine Shu doesn't go, Concubine Li will definitely not go either.
Hong'er immediately bowed and said, "I'll go talk to you right now."
When Concubine Li got up and went back to her bedroom, she also pretended to be sick.
Middle palace.
The queen was sitting on the phoenix chair in the main hall, with two people standing beside her, one was Yu Yao and the other was Long Chen.
The concubines in the palace arrived one after another, and everyone sat down in order according to their rank and title.
Look when the time is up, only Concubine Li and Concubine Shu have not arrived.
The queen was lying sickly on the phoenix chair, her eyes were powdered, but the dark circles still looked serious, the skin on her lips was cracked and turned outward, and her cheeks were sunken. She looked like she was going to die soon.
The concubine below secretly glanced at the queen, and was secretly shocked: everyone said the queen was dying, but she didn't expect it to be so serious.
The main hall was completely silent, no one dared to speak.
The queen looked so serious that the concubines and the maids who followed were frightened.
"Queen mother..."
Just when everyone was holding their breath and speechless, the Crown Princess suddenly burst in.
Seeing the queen's dying appearance, the Crown Princess hurried in, crying so hard.
The news that the palace maid Fu Rong died in the Forbidden Army Yamen came out, and the imperial concubine also knew about it.
The news that the imperial army intercepted and killed Furong shocked the imperial concubine. She did not expect that Shi Yuncheng would dare to act so recklessly.
Hearing that the Queen was discussing matters today, the Crown Princess hurried over to see what was going on.
She hoped that the queen would be okay and come out to take charge of the overall situation.
However, when the Crown Princess came in, she saw the queen who was about to die. A feeling of despair rose in her heart and she couldn't help crying.
The queen couldn't bear to see the crown prince like this, but at this time she had to pretend that she was about to die.
Yuyao immediately stepped forward to stop the Crown Princess and comforted her: "Prince Crown Princess, your Majesty is not feeling well. Don't get excited. Sit down and talk."
The imperial concubine sat down and immediately cried: "Mother, the Imperial Army's Yamen captured my maid, Furong, and they tortured Furong to death."
The queen did not expect that the crown prince would come, which disrupted the rhythm of the plan.
The queen didn't know what to say, so she turned her head and glanced at Long Chen.
Long Chen shook his head slightly, signaling the queen not to speak. Long Chen shook his head slightly, signaling the queen not to speak.
The queen pretended to be weak and looked at the Crown Princess without speaking.
The concubines below were shocked when they heard that the imperial army dared to kill people in the East Palace.
"No way, Fleur?"
A concubine with a charming face asked in surprise.
This girl is Concubine Li, known for her voluptuousness.
"Empress Li Fei, I asked Furong to deliver a message to the Crown Prince, but the Imperial Army actually intercepted and killed them. They are about to rebel!"
The queen was weak and silent, and the princess cried to everyone.
This statement once again shocked everyone.
"Is the Forbidden Army really rebelling?"
"How dare they touch the people in the East Palace?"
"Lawlessness..."
"this……"
When everyone was surprised, the queen suddenly raised her hand, and everyone fell silent, waiting for the queen to speak.
The queen raised her hand, then lowered it immediately, closing her eyes and leaning on the phoenix chair.
Yuyao immediately walked over and asked in a low voice: "Empress?"
The queen leaned her head on the phoenix chair, narrowed her eyes slightly, and whispered a few words to Yuyao, who nodded.
After saying that, the queen leaned on the phoenix chair and stopped talking, keeping her eyes closed.
Long Chen immediately took out a pill from the medicine box and stuffed it into the queen's mouth, and the queen swallowed it with difficulty.
Seeing the queen's miserable condition, the Crown Princess cried: "Mother..."
All the concubines looked frightened.
They have no ambition to usurp the throne, and they don't want anything to happen to the queen.
If something happens to the queen, the royal city will definitely be in chaos, which may affect the fish in the pond, and they will not be able to benefit.
"Mother, are you okay?"
Li Fei stood up and asked worriedly.
The other concubines got up. The other concubines got up.
Yuyao came out and said: "My dear ladies, the queen was poisoned by the old thief Liu Yubi, and her health... is not very good."
"I summoned you ladies today because I want to entrust you with some things."
"Originally, the Queen had something to say to Concubine Li and Concubine Shu, but unfortunately neither of them came."
Everyone looked at the seats of Concubine Li and Concubine Shu. They were below the queen and ranked first among the concubines.
"The king is resisting Long Chengen on the front line, and His Royal Highness is defending in Wucheng. At this time of national crisis, the concubines in the harem should be united in dealing with the outside world and should not engage in intrigues."
"My Majesty knows that someone was behind Liu Yubi's poisoning, but I don't intend to pursue it."
"Although no one is here, please bring a message back to convey your thoughts today."
As Yuyao said, the concubines below all had some guesses in their minds.
They were not idle in the palace either, and had heard some rumors from the outside world.
They knew that Yuyao was talking about Concubine Li and Concubine Shu.
"Ladies and gentlemen..."
While Yuyao was still talking, the queen suddenly struggled and said weakly: "Everyone..."
Yuyao immediately turned around and supported the queen to prevent her from falling from the chair.
The concubines looked at the queen, and everyone was waiting for the queen to speak.
The queen said with difficulty: "The national crisis is at hand... No more palace fighting... I, I have already written to the king..."
The queen leaned back in her chair again, too weak to speak.
Hearing that the queen had sent a letter to Shi Le, everyone was surprised. Only the imperial concubine was overjoyed and asked: "Has the queen sent a letter to the father?"
The queen leaned on the phoenix chair weakly and could not speak. Long Chen immediately said: "My ladies, please go back. The queen needs to rest."
Everyone stood up in surprise. The Crown Princess rushed forward as if grasping a life-saving straw, knelt on the ground, grabbed the queen's feet and asked: "Mother, did the queen send a message to the father? Really!"
Long Chen secretly thought in his heart: This Crown Princess is really...big-breasted and brainless!
Long Chen looked down from a high position. The princess's breasts were indeed big, but her brain...
Long Chen helped the Crown Princess up and advised: "Prince Princess, the queen needs to rest, so don't ask!"
The imperial concubine refused to let go, so Yu Yao had no choice but to pull her away. Long Chen picked up the queen and returned to the bedroom, leaving the concubine in mourning in the main hall.
The queen left, and all the concubines dispersed.
The concubines who have a good relationship with each other walk together and talk in low voices as they walk: The concubines who have a good relationship with each other walk together and talk in low voices as they walk:
"Why does the queen look like this?"
"I had heard that I was poisoned, but I didn't expect it to be so serious."
"The queen said she would not pursue the case, but she sent a letter to the king..."
"He died of poisoning, do you think the queen can not pursue the case?"
"Then what does the recent discussion mean? Beat those two people?"
"I don't know, maybe... it's too late."
Everyone was talking and going out.
The imperial concubine followed behind, watching the queen leave, and muttered happily: "The queen mother has sent a message to the father. The father knows, it's okay, it's okay. These rebellious officials and traitors deserve to die, the father will deal with them."
When the concubines heard what the Crown Princess said, they pretended not to hear it.
The concubines dispersed, and everyone quickly got the news.
In Concubine Shu's palace, the maid hurried into the bedroom, where Concubine Shu was sitting in the tea room drinking tea.
"Your Majesty, we just left. I heard that the Queen has no strength to speak and her life is at stake!"
The palace maid came in and reported quickly.
Concubine Shu put down her tea cup and asked, "What were we discussing today?"
The palace maid said: "I didn't say anything. The queen didn't have the strength to say anything. Yuyao said everything. Yuyao said that the queen knew someone was poisoning her, but she didn't pursue it. Please don't fight within the harem."
Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "The queen is really kind-hearted. She knew someone was poisoning her, but she didn't pursue it?"
They are all foxes of thousands of years, what kind of fairy tale is this?
Concubine Shu never believed that the queen could be so generous that she would not care about poisoning her enemies.
"Yes, the queen also said something."
The palace maid immediately agreed.
Concubine Shu asked: "What are you talking about?"
