All coincidences are just arrangements made by intentional people. It’s just that such arrangements are ingenious, and most people look at them as coincidences.
"Concubine An is under house arrest in the Buddhist temple, which eliminates suspicion. There is another person who hates the empress very much. That is Yu Jieyu. Could it be that Yu Jieyu is behind it?" Yingchun felt that this possibility was not impossible. .
Yuzhi seems to be keeping a low profile recently, but her hatred for the empress has reached its peak.
After the emperor goes to war, it is the best time for Yuzhi to deal with the empress.
"We have no clue at the moment, and we can only rely on speculation. This incident will not create any waves. Something will definitely happen next. Feng Jiu should keep a close eye on what happens in each palace." Mu Ci Saying that, he quickly took care of himself.
Later, all the concubines will come to Yong'an Palace to pay their respects to her, which is a good opportunity to test.
When all the concubines took their seats one by one, Mu Ci found that this time there were many people. Only Shen Manyun, who was grounded, did not show up. Another one was An Rong, who was under house arrest in the Buddhist hall. The other concubines were all present.
Mu Yao, who had never come to pay her respects, actually showed up. This girl probably came because of the rumors about the harem yesterday.
"There are quite a lot of people here today." Mu Ci said with a slight smile.
Qi Luo was the first to answer: "Yes, it's rare for everyone to gather together. It's probably because the eldest prince had diarrhea last night and some people were panicked and couldn't wait to clarify, so they suddenly appeared in Yong'an Palace to pay their respects to the queen."
The person she was talking about was, of course, Mu Yao.
Mu Yao is not a good person either, and she is from the same group as Mu Ci.
When Mu Yao saw Qi Luo mentioning her in a vague way, she smiled and said, "Who is so flustered? Why doesn't Concubine Ming speak clearly?"
Li Waner, who has always had little sense of presence, also spoke up: "Concubine Ming should really speak clearly to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."
After all, she is the head of Cuiwei Palace, and she and Mu Yao are from the same family, so she will not let others pour dirty water on Mu Yao easily.
Qilopang's ability is not that good, but his ability to stir up trouble is first-rate.
This Zi Luo is really hard to like.
"Whoever has a guilty conscience is the one, do you still need me to name him?" Qi Luo's eyes were fixed on Mu Yao's face.
Zheng Jieyu watched the excitement for a while and suddenly said: "Who is Sister Mingfei talking about? My sister is curious. I might as well say it directly. My sister is really stupid and doesn't understand who my sister is talking about."
Qi Luo didn't expect Zheng Jieyu to join in the fun. She frowned, wondering what Zheng Jieyu meant. Did he want to push her out?
"It's not obvious who I am talking about -"
"Ming Fei, if you want to say something, just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush. You are a concubine after all. You should be more generous. If you are so petty, you are not afraid of being laughed at by others!" Mu Ci, who was sitting on the phoenix chair, said softly.
Qi Luo's face changed slightly, and he ignored Xu Da at the moment and shouted loudly: "If I have to explain my words clearly, then I will. Yesterday, the eldest prince clearly had diarrhea after coming into contact with Mu Jieyu. If it wasn't I don’t believe Mu Jieyu poisoned the eldest prince!"
"You lie and spread rumors as soon as you open your mouth. Concubine Ming has been doing it for thousands of years." Mu Yao knew that this was her own business: "Well, if the Queen invites Mr. Zhang, who diagnosed the eldest prince yesterday, we will know what's going on. What happened."
Mu Ci felt that Mu Yao's words made sense, so she asked Concubine He Xian what she meant first: "What does Concubine Xian think?"
"Since it's a misunderstanding, of course it's better to clarify it. Yesterday, Mr. Zhang took Nian'er's pulse. I invited Mr. Zhang over and asked about it." Concubine He Xian looked at Qi Luo.
Qi Luo was so stunned by her sight that she blurted out: "You guys are so consistent in your opinions, I'm afraid Mr. Zhang was bribed by you!"
"With Concubine Ming's tone, people who don't know would think that Concubine Ming hates our Nian'er so much that she wishes Nian'er was poisoned." Concubine He Xian looked at Qi Luo with increasingly cold eyes.
Qi Luo was heartbroken when Concubine He Xian saw her.
In her opinion, Concubine He Xian was the most unmotivated and incompetent waste in the entire harem.
But this time when Concubine He Xian saw her like this, she was a little frightened. She really saw a ghost.
"Of course not. Of course I hope everything goes well for the eldest prince, but this is the emperor's first prince, and his status is very noble. Children have accidents time and time again, and I am worried when I see them. The most urgent task is to find out the facts.
To prevent others from hearing the truth like I did." Qi Luo softened his tone.
But she still firmly believed that it was Mu Yao who harmed the eldest prince. Just because Concubine He Xian was not the eldest prince's biological mother, she didn't care about his life or death.
Moreover, the entire harem knew that Concubine He Xian and Mu Ci were in a group.
Even if Mu Ci wanted to kill the eldest prince, Concubine He Xian would not dare to say "no", right?
Sizhu moved very quickly. Doctor Zhang came to Yong'an Palace, saluted Mu Ci, and then answered the questions Qi Luo wanted to know.
"It was the official who checked His Highness's pulse. All of His Highness's symptoms proved that they were not poisoned, but a bad stomach. There were two colleagues who were there at the time. The official brought them here so they could take over.
The official testified that the subordinate did not lie." Dr. Zhang spoke concisely and to the point, and then made room for the other two imperial doctors to explain the situation last night.
After that, the two imperial doctors entered the inner hall one after another. The situation they described was basically consistent with what Imperial Physician Zhang said, and there was not much difference.
Mu Ci waited for the three of them to finish their explanations, then looked at Qi Luo and asked, "Does Concubine Ming still have any questions? While everyone is here, Concubine Ming can ask questions if she has any, so as not to end up talking nonsense later without any evidence."
Qi Luo believed from the bottom of her heart that Dr. Zhang was Mu Ci's man, but she had no evidence, so she could only stop there.
The most important thing is that Concubine He Xian is useless. If something like this happens to the eldest prince, she still protects Mu Yao. She is a fool!
"Since it has been found out that it was just a misunderstanding, and Concubine Xian has no objection, I naturally have no doubts either." Qi Luo finished holding his breath.
At this moment, Yuzhi, who was silent, suddenly spoke up: "I think the Queen's handling of this matter was unfair. Mu Jieyu is the Queen's biological sister. This matter should not be left to the Queen to investigate, but to someone else."
The other concubines who have interests are here to find out."
She glanced around, and her eyes finally settled on Mu Ci's face: "I don't know if what I said makes sense? This harem is not the queen's alone, nor is it the queen's final say. Speaking of which, the eldest prince's mother
Le Jieyu was killed by the Queen. Under such circumstances, if something happens to the eldest prince, how can the case be handed over to the Queen?"
As soon as she said this, all the concubines who had already been jealous of Mu Ci all echoed her.
When Mu Yao saw this scene, she just wanted to laugh.
