Emperor Cheng went to the Queen's Palace that day, the Queen cried and pleaded guilty, and begged Emperor Cheng to restrain her feet in the palace. Seeing that the Queen was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, she thought that the Queen's health had been poor since the death of her son. For a while, I felt a little guilty, but I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
Emperor Cheng didn't think it was the empress who did it, because he didn't know the rumors in the harem. When the empress dowager, empress and even Concubine Lan wanted to hide it from Emperor Cheng, Emperor Cheng's eyes and ears in the harem couldn't find out the news. , and Li Fu knew about it, but he had already secretly approached the Queen, so how could he tell Emperor Cheng.
Li Fu is now Emperor Cheng's personal eunuch, and he has a great reputation outside, but Li Fu himself knows that Emperor Cheng is suspicious and irritable, and life around Emperor Cheng is not easy, not to mention that Emperor Cheng is not young, although He has health care, but he can't get rid of women's sex. Li Fu didn't expect that in the end, he would be liquidated by the new emperor, so he would naturally have to fight.
"It's really..." The queen seemed to find it difficult to speak, and she still knelt on the ground. For the first time, she knew that the ground in the middle palace gave people a feeling of coldness, but it also strengthened her heart, and said with lowered eyes , "Concubine Lu was really careless. Since the last confinement, Concubine Lu has been... I don't know how many palace maids and eunuchs have been carried out from Ganlu Palace during this period, but because Concubine Lu is pregnant, concubine only sent I asked my mother to persuade me."
Emperor Cheng frowned, could it be that Concubine Lu was resenting herself? Thinking of this, Emperor Cheng felt a little displeased, Concubine Lu really didn't know what was good and evil, although she was grounded, she still protected Concubine Lu.
The queen said, "It's Concubine Lu's duty during this time, and the concubine has to go through it personally, just for fear that some people will be short-sighted and neglect Concubine Lu, even if Concubine Lu wants something that is not for her duty, The concubine will also call her from my side." After speaking, she asked the mother to get the special registration booklet in the palace, found the one in Ganlu Palace and gave it to Emperor Cheng.
Emperor Cheng took it and looked it up, and saw that it was indeed the case, Concubine Lu was even better than him, her face was even uglier, but she didn't speak.
The queen knelt all the time, and said, "I thought it would be better if I let the nanny persuade me. Who would have thought... Today she... She took out her anger on the maid and beat the maid... The maid gave her up." When I pushed it, I hit my stomach, and when the imperial doctor went, the child was not saved."
"What about the maid?" Emperor Cheng asked sharply.
"The court lady knew that she was not good enough, so she bumped into a pillar." The queen said.
"Li Fu, bring up the corpse." Emperor Cheng said in a deep voice.
Li Fugong complied, and arranged for someone to carry them, and the empress asked someone to take the booklet, "This is the list of people serving in Ganlu Palace. Those who were ticked off are those who were beaten to death and maimed by Concubine Lu during this period."
Emperor Cheng took it over and turned it over, pursed his lips and said, "Queen, get up."
"Yes." The queen stood up with the hand of the nanny, shaking her body before she stood still.
Emperor Cheng went to his seat and sat down, "The queen also sits."
The queen just sat down beside Emperor Cheng, and soon Li Fu brought up the body of the maid with a few people, and covered it with a white cloth, Emperor Cheng said, "Open it."
Li Fu lifted the white cloth without saying a word, the queen turned her head a little unbearably, obviously she had seen it before, Emperor Cheng was also shocked when she saw it, the maid was covered in blood, and her clothes were also torn many times, Li Fu Looking into Emperor Cheng's eyes, he pushed up the maid's sleeves, and saw that the maid's arms were covered with scars, some of which even Emperor Cheng didn't know how they were hurt.
"Carry it down." Emperor Cheng waved his hand, and Li Fu hurriedly had the body carried away.
Only then did the queen speak, "Your Majesty, Concubine Lu..."
Emperor Cheng asked, "Is it the same for others?"
The queen glanced at the nanny beside her, and Emperor Cheng also looked over. The nanny saluted and said, "Some are more injured than her."
Emperor Cheng frowned, "How did you get hurt?" He still felt that Concubine Lu was so weak, how could she beat someone to death.
Mammy said, "Most of them are scissors, hairpins, hot water, etc."
Emperor Cheng didn't say anything more, the queen asked, "Your Majesty, Concubine Lu..."
"You don't have to worry about it." Emperor Cheng said in a deep voice.
As expected, the queen didn't bother about it anymore, and Emperor Cheng didn't care about it anymore after knowing what Concubine Lu had done.
In Concubine Lan's palace, Concubine Chang said, "I didn't expect the queen..."
The events during this period were all arranged by the Queen. Both Concubine Lan and Concubine Chang thought that the Queen would show up when Concubine Lu beat someone to death for the first time. At first, I was panicked, but then I became more and more courageous. However, when someone died, newcomers would naturally be sent in. The queen just sent a few people who had just been selected into the palace. Such people have not been tempered by the palace. The end result is what it is today.
Lan Fei said, "Let's avoid it recently."
Concubine Chang was very satisfied with what Concubine Lan said about us, she nodded and said nothing more.
Although Emperor Cheng sent someone to pick up Shen Jin, it took time to go back and forth, and the Queen Mother's people were involved there, making Emperor Cheng helpless no matter how impatient he was.
But I don't know that the queen mother is also anxious, the person who stayed at the guard of honor of the queen mother has sent a message about Emperor Cheng, and she sneaked out when the person sent by Emperor Cheng arrived on the first day , "I'm afraid I can't hide it anymore."
Of course the queen mother knew that she couldn't hide it, but it was a bit shorter than she expected, "Why did Emperor Cheng suddenly send someone..."
"I'm afraid something happened in Beijing." The man didn't know, and said in a low voice.
The queen mother understood that there was no way out at this time, "Go and send news to Shen Jin, and leave before dawn tomorrow."
"Yes."
The Empress Dowager let out a breath slowly, all she could do at this time was to delay the time, as long as she went to the place she had arranged, fearing that Emperor Cheng would not be able to find them when the time came, and he would try his best to conceal the news of their disappearance.
Because Shen Jin had already fallen asleep, the people sent by the Empress Dowager told the maids beside Shen Jin about the matter, and saw that the two maids nodded in fear.
Before dawn, Shen Jin was helped into the carriage. The mother beside the queen mother saw Shen Jin enter the carriage and asked, "Why are there two people missing?"
An Yi said in a respectful voice, "An Lan is sick, Madam left An Ning to take care of her, and let her come back after she recovers."
The nanny next to the queen mother blinked and said, "Okay, serve the princess well."
"Yes." An Yi said respectfully.
Because it was not yet dawn, the carriage did not go fast. Who knew that not long after, the house they had just left suddenly caught fire, and they heard Shen Jin's panicked voice. What happened, Shen Jin's face was ugly, and the mother didn't think it was strange when she glanced at it. It's strange that her face is not ugly at this time, "Princess, I'm afraid someone is going to deal with us. The queen mother said that it might be the son of the British prince , Let the princess sit still, and the road below must be quicker."
"My maid is still inside." Shen Jin said in a panic.
Mammy lowered her head and said, "There is no other way." If it weren't for those two maids, especially that An Ning, the Queen Mother would not have asked people to deal with this matter and messed up all the people around Shen Jin. Death is what the Empress Dowager thinks.
Shen Jin said, "Send someone to take a look!"
Mammy said, "There are not enough people."
Shen Jin pursed her lips, "An Yi, go, give An Yi some money and a horse." There were only a few maids around her.
An Yi respectfully responded, "Your servant will come back as soon as you go, Madam be careful."
"If you put them in peace... come back after you settle them properly." Shen Jin leaned on the cushion a little listlessly, bit her lip, and said gently stroking her stomach with both hands.
Of course the nanny would not stop her, she personally sent An Yi away, narrowed her eyes, and went back to report to the Queen Mother, who thought for a moment, "Is Shen Jin alright?"
"Looking at her complexion is a little bit bad." Mammy said respectfully.
The Queen Mother sneered and said nothing more.
At this time, Shen Jin and An Ning had already left the yard long ago. After the Queen Mother sent someone to deliver the news last night, Shen Jin and the others arranged things properly. It was An Lan who got into the car while it was dark. Afraid of being discovered by the queen mother's guards, he followed Shen Jin far away. After receiving Shen Jin, he took Shen Jin to an alley. He had already arranged the yard and everything in it.
In fact, An Ning will be left behind to lure the Empress Dowager to attack An Ning, because Shen Jin deliberately let An Ning show her hands in front of the Empress Dowager's people. A close maid with martial arts, the Empress Dowager will not let go of any chance to get rid of her. Because what she wanted to do was to completely control Shen Jin.
At this time, Shen Jin's complexion was not good. She was pregnant after all, and she hadn't really calmed down and rested since she became pregnant. At this time, only Yue Wen and another guard were left in the small courtyard, and one of them went out to inquire. The news is over, the remaining two are still secretly following the Queen Mother and the others to see if there is a chance to rescue An Lan and the others, or...
An Ning was worried, and Yue Wen hurried to invite a doctor. Shen Jin's face was a little pale, but she was in good spirits. Instead, she smiled, "I feel a little more relaxed."
"Madam, drink some warm water first, and this servant will cook some porridge." An Ning washed Shen Jin's face with water, and An Yuan not only put makeup on An Lan, but also re-dressed Shen Jin, making Shen Jin look more like An Lan, that's why when the nanny next to the queen mother sent someone to knock, An Ning deliberately shook the candle, so she fooled it and said.
Shen Jin shook her head and said, "I don't have much appetite." In fact, she was also afraid, what would happen if the Queen Mother found out that An Lan was a fake.
An Ning persuaded, "Madam, you still have a child in your belly, so you have to eat."
Shen Jin thought for a while and said, "Well, just do whatever you want."
"Yes." An Ning finally said, "The servant will change the clothes for Madam first."
"I'll do it myself." Shen Jin looked at the suit on the bed, "You go and change it too."
An Ning didn't try to persuade her any more, and agreed. Shen Jin slowly changed her clothes, and An Ning also quickly changed them. She took the clothes she was wearing and what Shen Jin was wearing to the kitchen, and then burned them. Letting out a breath slowly, she began to check the kitchen, and then kept in mind what was missing. They would stay here for a few more days, and she had to find a way to take care of Shen Jin.
An Lan, An Tao, An Yuan and the others... An Ning closed her eyes and stopped thinking about it.
