Meng Qiqi knew that Liu Lingyun and Li Yushu must have an unknown relationship. She wanted to stab this matter in front of the queen mother, at least she could delay a little longer for herself to wait for Sheng Jiayan to come.
However, she seems to have overlooked one thing.
Zhaoluan's expression was a little embarrassed, she thought about it and said, "Sister Huang, although I hate you, but that's all in the past. Now I don't have any conflict with you, there are some things I shouldn't, but I think it's still I have to warn you. When you were in a coma just now, the imperial physician came to check your pulse, the imperial physician...you..." She hesitated, making Meng Qiqi puzzled.
"I what?"
"Originally, you just knelt down in the rain and fainted from the cold. This is not a big deal. But after the imperial doctor carefully checked your pulse for you, you have given birth..."
Meng Eqi heard the thunder outside, as if her heart was pounding and drumming now.
No, this exposes Meng Yong? Is Meng Yong's life really going to end in her hands
Seeing that her face was wrong, Zhaoluan immediately comforted her: "But Huangsao, don't worry, I believe you are not that kind of person. Otherwise, with the character of my emperor's brother who can't rub the sand in his eyes, how could he treat you so well. "Zhaoluan became more and more emboldened. She thought that she had almost bullied the queen with the concubine of the harem in the past few years. So if the emperor was to treat her well, Zhaoluan was even more open-eyed. After all, the whole harem knew that the queen was the last person the emperor didn't like to see before.
"Zhaoluan, do you think the Queen Mother believed the doctor's words?"
Zhaoluan paused, and she looked at Meng Qiqi's face. After a moment, she nodded.
Meng Qiqi closed her eyes slightly, and took the opportunity to admit it: "This is absurd, because I don't remember it clearly. But if I'm not wrong, the imperial physician... is right."
Zhaoluan's face was full of horror: "Sister Huang, you... are you serious?"
Meng Eqi nodded slowly: "And it should have been before entering the palace, but I really can't recall what happened at that time. To be honest, I have been seeking answers myself for so many years. If I really gave birth, why did I I don't have any memory at all, if I don't... Then why would the imperial physician lie?"
Zhaoluan still couldn't believe that the queen was not perfect before she entered the palace, she asked tremblingly, "Maybe... Maybe someone bought it?"
After saying this, she herself felt inappropriate. At this time, if someone really bought the imperial doctor, it could only be her mother, the queen mother. And the reason why the Empress Dowager did this was to completely pull the Queen down from the phoenix seat. Otherwise, with the strength of the Meng family, the empress dowager can't let the emperor abolish the empress by simply assigning a crime to the empress. Unless the queen committed a serious crime, the dissatisfaction of the Meng family could be blocked.
And whether Meng Yong happened to someone before entering the palace should not have happened, that is the entry point of the queen mother.
Once this matter is confirmed, it will not be Meng Yong himself, and even the Meng family will not be able to escape a penalty.
"Zhaoluan, tell me the truth now. The reason why I can sit here and talk to you now is what the queen mother ordered? Or what did the emperor order?" Meng Qiqi's head was running fast, thinking about what To help Meng Yong escape.
"The imperial doctor reported the matter to the queen mother, who was very angry. She has a family face, so let me keep silent. Let me wait here for you to wake up and then tell her that the queen mother has sent someone out of the palace. Let's look for evidence. Brother Huang should not know yet that the ministers suddenly entered the palace together to discuss the previous issue of the Shuanglong water in Nanjun."
Meng Qiqi bit her lip and pondered, the queen mother did not let her speak out, just because she was afraid of leaking the news to Sheng Jiayan. She is now going out of the palace to find evidence, but where did the evidence come from after so many years? But it just takes some time to falsify the evidence! Even if Meng Yong really didn't do it, she could make it look like Meng Yong really did it.
Now the question is, has Meng Yong ever had a child
If she had given birth, wouldn't the people in Meng's house know about it? ! However, Meng Yong's life records have never had a child. If Meng Yong hadn't given birth to a child, everything would be fine. But if she really has a flesh and blood outside, it will be difficult to do.
While she was racking her brains to think about what to do, two guards with vicious faces rushed in from the door and walked directly towards Meng Qiqi. Zhaoluan was startled at first, and then he stood in front of Meng Eqi: "Presumptuous! What are you doing?"
When the guards saw Zhaoluan, they stopped moving forward. They explained, "Your Highness, Princess, please forgive me. The ministers will arrest the Queen according to the order of the Empress Dowager."
"Arrest? Why?!" Zhao Luan refused.
Meng Eqi put his hand on Zhaoluan's shoulder: "It's okay Zhaoluan, I'll just go there."
Now that the queen mother and the others are coming fiercely, even if Meng Eqi hides here and doesn't go out, she will have to face this problem sooner or later. In order not to leave more clues to the Queen Mother and the others, Meng Eqi decided to go there by herself.
Dressed properly, she followed two impatient guards. Before leaving, she said to Zhaoluan: "Zhaoluan, if you can help me invite the emperor, it will be the greatest help to me."
After Meng Eqi was escorted away by the guards, Zhao Luan quickly recovered from his shock and ran to Jianzhang Palace like a madman.
Sheng Jiayan was there to discuss with Baiguan about the sending of the vision.
…
Meng Qiqi was escorted to Shoukang Palace, but the queen mother refused to see her even. Waiting outside the door was Concubine Shu, who stood at His Highness, looking at Meng Qiqi with smug eyebrows across the layers of white jade steps: "By the order of the Empress Dowager, first strike the Empress Meng's staff ten times to solve the problem. The empress dowager is hated by the old man."
Meng Eqi sneered: "What is the charge for this time?"
Concubine Shu raised her eyes and said, "Meng Yong, before you entered the palace, you raised a child for someone else, but you didn't report it to the emperor, and you have concealed it so far. You really have a big plan. Now the empress dowager is just the first to beat it with a stick. It's ten times as an example, and you can explain it to the Empress Dowager slowly next to you."
Meng Qiqi refused to follow: "Where's the evidence? I'm innocent, and you slandered me so far with just a few words of your mouth. How can you convince the public without a single piece of evidence? Do you want to conclude that I have done this with just a few words from the imperial physician?"
Concubine Shu seemed to have expected her to do this long ago, and she smiled even more proudly: "If it's really a doctor, of course it can't be concluded, but the empress dowager just now sent someone to the Meng Mansion to inquire. After several interrogations, your elder brother has recognized Yes. Before you entered the palace, you spent a period of time in Yongzhou to escape the summer. At that time, you often met someone in the middle of the night who served your maid, and that person was raised in the backyard of Mengfu's house in Yongzhou at that time. Isn't it?"
Meng Eqi couldn't answer. Yes, she couldn't answer. She didn't know that Meng Yong had such a story, and she never expected that Meng Yong's eldest brother would betray her.
Concubine Shu thought that the Queen Mother's explanation could not be delayed any longer, lest it would be difficult to handle when the emperor came. So she waved her hand: "Don't do it yet?"
Meng Eqi was forcibly pressed on the bench, drenched in pouring rain, and when the guard swung down the board, Meng Eqi felt a burning pain in her back.
The guards didn't pull back, and Meng Eqi, who was in pain when the board hit her back, was about to faint several times. But she bit her lip, not letting herself make a sound.
I kept asking in my mind: Meng Yong, do you have it, do you have it
The torrential rain washed down the walls of the palace, and in addition to the sound of the board slamming on Meng Qiqi's ears, there was also the sneering sound of Concubine Shu coming from a distance.
"Meng Yong, if I knew today, why was it in the first place?"
Meng Yong, have you ever done it? You tell me all the facts now, and I can help you get a game back. Did you just watch the Empress Dowager and Concubine Shu humiliate you so far? Meng Eqi kept calling Meng Yong's name in his heart, and usually Meng Yong's soul consciousness would flash once, why didn't it appear today!
Meng Yong, you are not hiding!
After shouting for a while, there was no response at all, Meng Qiqi couldn't help but take out his trump card: Meng Yong, if you allow yourself to be bullied like this, he won't think you're innocent when Zhou Xing comes back in the future! You can only tell the truth.
Meng Eqi felt a sudden warmth in her heart, and Meng Yong's crying voice appeared out of thin air in her mind. This was the first time Meng Eqi heard Meng Yong's words so complete and not intermittent.
"I'm sorry, I... I did give birth to a child before entering the palace."
At the same time, there was a person at the corner of the palace road who saw everything in his eyes, he turned around and ran quickly.
…
In the Jianzhang Palace, Zhaoluan was stopped at the door.
The guard told her very seriously: "Your Majesty is discussing important matters, please go back and wait for the princess. After His Majesty's deliberation is over, the minister will help you pass the information."
Zhaoluan squeezed the guard's collar violently, pretending to be vicious: "This princess has something important to see now, and now I have to see the emperor. If you don't let me in, are you tired of living!"
The guards couldn't fight back, so they could only retreat step by step: "Princess, please forgive me that you can't obey your orders."
Zhaoluan was really in a hurry, it was the first time someone dared to disobey her like this. It's just that Zhaoluan had nothing to do, and when he was worrying on the spot, someone suddenly came beside him.
The guards stepped aside immediately and let him in.
"Taifu Jiang?" Zhao Luan looked at the man and had an idea: "Master Taifu! I need you to help me tell the emperor brother."
Mrs. Jiang waved his hand as if in a hurry: "Princess, if you have anything to do later. Wei Chen also has something important to report to Your Majesty."
In this way, Zhaoluan watched Mrs Jiang hurriedly enter. She wanted to catch up but was stopped by the guards, so she could only watch Mrs Jiang run into the Jianzhang Palace.
When Zhaoluan was worried, he suddenly heard Jiang Taifu's howl coming from the Jianzhang Palace.
"Your Majesty! It's not good! The Empress was beaten!"
"..." At this moment, Zhaoluan had to admit that Jiang... was still old and hot.
