Xiao Qi came later.
Xiao Qi's back makeup is exquisite and her expression is arrogant. Although she is a little rushed because of the sudden incident, it still does not detract from her luxurious pomp. After she entered the hall, her eyes swept over Chu Jinyao and Qin Yi fiercely.
When Xiao Qi was on the road, she heard part of it. She put a lot of eyeliner around the emperor, and she knew very well what was going on around the emperor. But when Xiao Qi actually stood in the hall, she was still shocked. She seemed to have underestimated the situation.
After Xiao Qi glanced at the clothes on the tray, even though she was shocked, she couldn't see anything on her face. She bowed to the emperor, then sat down beside the emperor and asked softly, "Your Majesty, my concubine. I waited in the palace for a long time today, but I didn’t see the crown princess coming to greet me. I asked someone to ask, and I found out that the crown princess and the prince came to the emperor. The emperor is very lively here, so many people, what are you doing?”
The emperor didn't speak, and the concubine looked at the situation and stood up pitifully: "Your Majesty, the empress, the concubine slipped a tire a few days ago, and the concubine thought that she was poor and was not qualified to raise the prince. But who knows, This matter has other twists and turns. The emperor also knew that the concubines did not like incense, but the concubines smelled the fragrance of the clothes a few days ago. The concubines thought that the servants made their own decisions. The concubine couldn't understand, so she went to ask the imperial doctor, who knew that the fragrance on the clothes was actually harmful to slippery tires. The emperor, empress, concubines and concubines are affected by one person, it is a poor concubine, but this matter is not clear. , If there are so many concubines in the harem, if another emperor's heir is killed, how can it be?"
Rei Concubine's words clearly stated her position. The queen could not tolerate her, she could only find another way.
The nails under Xiao Qi's sleeves are getting tighter and tighter. She has always been careful in her actions. The medicines placed on the concubines are extremely light and light, and the eclipses of these sluts have destroyed the children of these sluts. Lian Concubine was Xiao Qi Hou's most adventurous time, because there was a witch-gu case in the East Palace, so Xiao Qi Hou made a desperate bet, and never expected that it would be a miss this time. Years of conspiracy have been exposed, Xiao Qi said that she was not panic was a lie, but after all, she has been a queen for many years, and she was not a fuel-efficient lamp if she could climb to this position.
"This palace is the queen of the middle palace. It is the duty of this palace to manage the harem for the emperor, and to spread the branches and leaves, but this palace did not expect that there are still people in the harem who dare to do such a thing." Queen Qi said and glanced at the pity Concubine glanced, "Pity Concubine, since you found out that someone is not good for you, why didn't you come to report to this palace, but instead crossed this palace and came to the emperor to cry pitifully?"
Lian Concubine's face turned pale when he was told, and Xiao Qi had already turned his eyes and said loudly to the outside: "It is a heinous crime to dare to harm the emperor's heir, come here, bring the embroidered girl who makes clothes here."
The embroidered girl who handled the clothes was pinned down in the hall, and Xiao Qi shouted with a sullen face: "Tell me, are you doing something on the concubine's clothes?"
Chu Jinyao frowned upon hearing this, Xiao Qihou's words were too obvious. Sure enough, under the pressure of Xiao Qi, the palace maid quickly couldn't hold it anymore, she kowtowed and said: "The emperor spares his life, the queen concubine spares his life, the servants are jealous and pity concubines and concubines who are also favored as palace maids. There is something hidden in the clothes. Slaves should die for sins, and Goddess spare your life!"
The gecko's tail was broken, and Chu Jinyao admired it in her heart. The queen's reaction was quick. It was just the beginning, and the queen had prepared a scapegoat. Chu Jinyao took a step forward and asked, "You are just a little palace maid, where did you get the courage to murder the concubine? Besides, musk and other things are not easily accessible, how did you get these ingredients? ?"
The palace maid was speechless after being questioned, Chu Jinyao looked away and saluted the emperor: "Your Majesty, this palace maid is indeed cruel, but she is nothing but a chess piece, and no one gives advice, how dare she, how can she do it to this point?"
After Xiao Qi didn't panic, he took the words and asked, "Ben Gong asks you, is there anyone instructing you?"
The palace maid shook her teeth and slammed on the ground resolutely: "No one has ever done anything on the line. Embroidering clothes for the concubine and concubine must be done by the slaves alone."
Chu Jinyao asked half-heartedly and half-threateningly, "You know, if you commit such a thing, it would be a capital crime to go to the Department of Prudence and Punishment, and taking all the tortures in the Department of Prudence and Punishment is not enough to offset you. sin. Do you really want to admit it?"
The palace maid fell to the ground, trembling all over, but still gritted her teeth. Xiao Qi Houzhi took over the words with satisfaction: "My concubine gave birth prematurely, and this palace took pity on her. Now that the culprit has been found, this is a good thing, and I should be happy for the concubine and the deceased prince. But the princess was not happy when she saw it. , on the contrary, it seems a little unwilling."
The palace maid killed the crime in one bite, and the queen didn't know about it. After Xiao Qi did such a sinister thing, she was unscathed. She was still in the mood to provoke the relationship between the East Palace and the emperor. The energy of Xiao Qi should not be underestimated.
Unfortunately, Chu Jinyao did not underestimate Xiao Qi, otherwise Qin Yi would not be standing here.
After Xiao Qi also saw Qin Yi, she even sneered proudly: "The prince was originally there, the concubine is a palace concubine, and her accidental miscarriage is also a matter of the harem, the prince is just worried about state affairs every day, why? Are you interfering in the affairs of the harem?"
Lian Concubine's sadness came from hearing this. Today, I can see that I can't hurt the queen. The queen is fine. She, this daring palace maid, is about to have an accident! Either way, they were all dead, so the concubine sighed, pointing at the palace maid on the ground and cursing: "You are a poisonous woman who kills a thousand knives, you can attack an unborn baby, and you don't have to worry about being killed by an unjust soul when you sleep at night. Is it? Babies who fail to be born are the most resentful, and you will definitely get retribution in the future, so that your family will not die!"
Lian Concubine pointed out that Sang's scolding of Huai was too heavy, and Xiao Qi's eyebrows were raised uncontrollably. The baby's resentment undoubtedly hit Xiao Qi's sore spot, and Xiao Qi's heart palpitated for no reason. She covered her heart, and just after changing her breath, she heard Qin Yi sneer, and finally came off: "The Queen said that Gu had no intention of interfering in the harem. Lian Concubine had a miscarriage, was implicated in witchcraft, and planted the blame on the head of the East Palace, Gu really didn't plan to investigate this matter."
After Xiao Qi's face changed slightly, Chu Jinyao lowered her head and chuckled, the queen was too complacent, she was just complacent, she had to go to Qin Yi to show off, now she is happy.
Qin Yi glanced from behind, and immediately the eunuch bowed and stepped back, and when he came up again, he brought a whole set of things with him.
The person who reported the matter was an articulate eunuch. His voice was clear and logical, and he showed evidence to the emperor, such as confessing to who the palace maid had just met, and what family members there were. The palace maid's private store in the Forbidden City was also brought over, and the little eunuchs showed them one by one. They were luxurious and precious, obviously not the palace maid could afford. In addition, where did the musk and several other materials come from, where did they concoct the slippery medicine, how did they get it into the palace, and even the eunuchs who ran errands to spread the word were not spared. Qin Yi almost pulled out their entire line by the roots.
After Xiao Qi, she was really panicked. When the matter was revealed, she could push someone out to take the blame, but if the other party had already figured out the whole line, then it wouldn't be a complete problem. Qin Yi didn't bother to pay attention to the evidence after displaying the evidence. He didn't point out the person he suspected, but the matter had come to an end, and he didn't need to say anything more.
Xiao Qi's eyes twitched, and she repeated her old tricks, saying: "Prince is really a hand and an eye to the sky, obviously people are in the palace, but any trouble in the Forbidden City can't escape your eyes. These things are all from the capital, I didn't expect The prince is not here, but he can check whatever he wants in the capital."
Later, Xiao Qi was provoking again, causing trouble for Qin Yi to relieve himself. Even if Qin Yi was not bothered, the emperor was bothered.
The emperor's face was gloomy, these people are all very well! One is arrogant under his nose, and the other treats him as a fool. It's all this time, and he tries to divert his attention. Murdering the emperor's heir, burying witchcraft in the palace, and causing the concubine to have a miscarriage, these are just pity concubines.
The emperor closed his eyes angrily. He suddenly felt exhausted. He knew that the eldest son and the young wife were not compatible, but he did not expect that the situation had developed into this way. The Queen arbitrarily excluded dissidents, and the East Palace swelled into a behemoth unknowingly.
After Xiao Qi ate this bowl of rice, she quickly discovered that the emperor was in a wrong mood. Xiao Qi was shocked in his heart. After that, did the emperor really believe what Qin Yi said? After Xiao Qi couldn't sit still, she immediately blushed and wiped her tears with a handkerchief in aggrieved and pitiful manner: "Your Majesty, do you really doubt that the concubine will succeed? The concubine has been in the palace for more than ten years, and she is infatuated with you, You also gave birth to King Lu and Yan'er, so you are so suspicious of your concubine? Your concubine is already a queen, and she has sons and daughters under her knees, so why should you be jealous of other concubines, let alone murder them."
This is simply hooligan logic, who said the queen would not be jealous? Qin Yi didn't expect that the evidence was in front of him, Xiao Qi could still have the cheek to deny it, and the emperor actually let her distort the facts!
This is the difference between men's and women's thinking. Qin Yi thinks the emperor is blind, why he still refuses to admit it, but Queen Qi is very familiar with the emperor's heart. What is true and what is false? It was Dali Temple who set the case, and if it didn't meet the emperor's wishes, then it was a wrong case and had to be retrial. After Xiao Qi is now playing emotional cards, and looking at the momentum, it is really effective.
Qin Yi could see the subtle changes in the emperor, and now he wanted to scold the emperor for being stupid. Chu Jinyao gently stretched out her hand and shook her head at him, signaling him to be calm.
Tears are women's exclusive weapons, so they can only be fought by women.
Chu Jinyao wished the emperor a thousand blessings, and said unhurriedly, "The empress governs the six palaces and raises the princess and the prince. Naturally, she has done a lot. It's just that the empress has been wronged, shouldn't the concubine be wronged? That fate? The bitter child should be the fourth prince."
With a word that woke the dreamer, the concubine immediately understood, and began to cry regularly. The queen was crying on the top, and the concubine knelt on the ground and cried. The queen could cry about her infatuation and hard work, but the concubine had just lost her child, and the crying changed its name justified, which was pitiful and deplorable.
The words "prescribe the right medicine" is really good. Qin Yi's evidence and the righteousness of moving out of the country are all useless, but the emperor was obviously shaken when the concubine, who was known for being delicate and pitiful, knelt down and cried.
Qin Yi turned his eyes away, so angry that he didn't want to watch anymore, and Chu Jinyao was also in a complicated mood when he saw this scene. But now is not the time to worry about these things, Chu Jinyao continued: "Your Majesty, there are so many concubines in the harem, you are their god, and now such an appalling thing is happening in the palace, if it wasn't for the concubine's miscarriage, such a sinister injury It is uncertain how many people will be harmed by this thing. Besides, who knows if there is any empress who missed her son because of this. Your Majesty, it is for the peace of the harem, so you have to investigate this matter."
Lian Concubine alone can't compete with Xiao Qi, what about the three thousand beauties in the harem? There are his own beauties on the left and right, the emperor is swaying, he can't bear to embarrass his little wife, but the emperor also pity other beauties, the queen hurt them, how can the emperor be angry.
After Xiao Qi was so angry that she vomited blood, she simply took another dose of powerful medicine: "Your Majesty, you clearly said back then that you should settle me in a good life. The concubine believes it is true, and when you agree, I will keep this sentence in my heart. I've been by your side all the time, trying my best to be your wife. It's my fault that the concubine cares about you too much. You dote on other beauties. The concubine resents that she is not smart enough, but she also thinks of you, even if her heart is like a dull knife sharpening. I don't change my mind. The concubine is stupid, not as capable as the prince. The concubine didn't know what happened, so the prince listed all the evidence of the crime of the concubine in front of me. The concubine knew that the prince looked down on me. It would be better for the emperor to abolish the position of the concubine and queen, and when King Lu is in the vassal, the concubine and the concubine leave the capital with King Lu far away, so the prince and the princess should be able to feel at ease!"
What Xiao Qi said was beautiful. First, she showed her love, and she told the emperor in a veiled manner that although she murdered the children of other concubines, it was because Xiao Qi loved the emperor deeply, and then took advantage of the emperor's soft heart and accurately gave it to the East Palace. An eye drop. It is showing weakness and selling miserably, it is really wonderful.
Qin Yi didn't expect that Xiao Qi would have the face to mention what happened back then. How did she enter the palace? Do you really think everyone doesn't know? Even dare to mention it in public. Qin Yi sneered and said, "There are so many hard evidences and so many crimes, yet the queen still thinks she is right?"
"Emperor!" Queen Qi looked at the emperor with rain, "The prince really despised me. The concubines always thought that they could melt the rift, so it seems that the concubines were delusional. It is time to die, so as not to ruin the reputation of our Qi family daughter. Your majesty, take care of your dragon body, and the concubine will go underground to find my sister, please forgive me!"
After Xiao Qi did this, she didn't save face for herself. It's been a long time since she was pregnant before getting married and mad at her sister, but it didn't mean that no one knew about it. The emperor was ashamed because he possessed Xiao Qi without a name and name, and he has tolerated her for many years.
The emperor was soft-hearted, but Qin Yi was surprisingly angry. After Da Qi has always been a taboo for Qin Yi, no one in the East Palace dared to take the initiative to mention it, but now the name of Empress Wenxiao has come out of the mouth of Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi even used it as a weapon. Qin Yi's face was cold and his eyes were like knives: "Shameless, you have no right to mention your mother."
"Qin Yi, be presumptuous!" The emperor was so enraged that he even called Qin Yi's name in front of everyone, ignoring the many people standing in the hall. After Qin Yi satirized Xiao Qi, why wasn't he mocking the emperor.
"You are getting more and more lawless!" The emperor was furious. "You dare to contradict the queen in front of me today. In a few days, won't you even pay attention to me?"
Chu Jinyao hurriedly stepped forward, squatted down and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness is out of filial piety to Empress Wenxiao, so I'm in a hurry. What's more, this matter is of great importance and almost involves the entire harem. If it weren't for a coincidence, it would hurt the concubine. The charge of miscarriage will be charged to the head of the East Palace. The emperor always has to give everyone an explanation."
The emperor looked at Chu Jinyao with an unpredictable expression: "You always follow Qin Yi to call the queen, but it seems that you have never called your mother. You help Qin Yi everywhere, don't you think that you don't look down on the queen in your heart? Otherwise, why not Call the Queen Mother?"
Chu Jinyao's heart sank, her head lowered, but she did not speak. There was something the emperor couldn't understand, he laughed angrily, and sneered: "You are all very good, get out of here!"
Chu Jinyao wanted to say more, but was stopped by Qin Yi. Qin Yi held Chu Jinyao's wrist, turned his head away without returning the salute.
After Daqi is the bottom line, once Daqi is mentioned, Qin Yi and the emperor have no chance of speaking well.
After Xiao Qi looked at the back of Qin Yi leaving, he lowered his head and smiled softly.
Sure enough, Qin Yi himself would be in a mess when he mentioned Daqi. Her sister was so kind to her, even when she died, she was helping her.
