Concubine De had no idea what the empress and Yun Fenghuang were thinking. When she saw them looking at her, she felt that what she said made sense, so she added: "Otherwise, why wouldn't she even send a dowry to the second prince? Xuan Zhao earlier Yi was cheated by the people who were promoted from Yanlan Palace. Concubine Shu and Xuan Zhaoyi are sisters, will they not have a long memory? She was granted the title of Concubine Rui when she first entered the palace, and the dowry was not one or two. So many people Well, I can't say that I can't live without the one in front of me, so I don't send a reliable person to watch over the second prince. It shows that I wish the second prince was gone, and my biological mother can be intimate with her as much as she wants from now on. , no outsiders are disturbing you.”

For example, although the fifth prince was not willing to give up to the queen, from now on, the young master who was surrounded by Yijia Palace was her own third prince's daughter, and Concubine De felt much more comfortable...

Before that, although Didong people believed that the third princess was more attentive, Concubine De always felt that when Chen gave birth to a prince, her head gave birth to a daughter instead, so she was overpowered.

Therefore, every time I see the fifth prince, I feel very confused.

On the one hand, I feel that I currently don’t have a biological prince, so having one born from a palace concubine will be a safe bet for me. On the other hand, I wonder if the flesh and blood of a low-level palace concubine has the right to share her care with my daughter. Protect harshly

"The second prince is not the flesh and blood of His Majesty, how can he be said to be an outsider?" Gu Zhen felt sour in his heart. Will the young concubine who is very fertile to him be confident enough? Like her, not to mention the fifth prince who will inherit the throne. Well, even if the third prince had committed a taboo in his mother's family, she would still feel really sorry for him.

After suppressing Dong's turbulent emotions, the queen coughed dryly and said, "Okay, let's just say those words without any evidence and wait until others come to discuss it."

A moment later, Meng Youyi and Luo Hanyi came in a hurry. Gu Zhen glanced at Yun Fenghuang, and Yun Fenghuang asked indirectly. Of course, neither of them admitted to murdering the second prince, and they said that Concubine Shu was not such a person either. : "The Empress and the Imperial Concubine are wise! Concubine Shu may have never given birth, and she is not as careful as the Empress and the Imperial Concubine, so she allowed the bad guys to take advantage of the situation. However, it is definitely wrong to deliberately harm the second prince. !”

Yun Fenghuang said lightly: "Maybe not before, but she was pregnant at that time. Maybe she felt that the second prince was an eyesore?"

"Concubine Shu is pregnant?" Meng Youyi and Luo Hanyi were startled, their expressions were a bit complicated, and Bu Nao immediately said, "Then Concubine Shu is even more unwilling to cause harm to the second prince. Forgive me for speaking frankly: Although your Majesty Dongruming's knees Dong already has many heirs, but in the palace, Dong is empty. Even if Concubine Shu doesn't like the second prince, why bother to harm him? Just try to find another mother-in-law for him, so not only does she not have to bear the responsibility The crime of murdering the emperor's heir will probably earn the gratitude of the childless concubine, wouldn't it?"

For example, Cui Lianye and Jia Pingye, who had fallen out of favor for a long time and were harmed by the Three Corpse Insects, not only had little hope of having children themselves, but also had low chances of getting heirs from people in the palace.

Even if the second prince's biological mother is tabooed and alienated by Chunjia after she denies her guilt, they will never dislike her.

After all, in their current situation, how could they expect their son-in-law to have any great future

But having a son and a half daughter to relieve my boredom, and having someone to rely on when I am old, I am satisfied.

If Concubine Shu asked for the second prince to be handed over to them, they would definitely be overjoyed, and Concubine Shu would be extremely grateful.

"Whether it makes sense or not, people's hearts are unpredictable." Yun Fenghuang listened without comment. He asked a few more questions and saw that he had gained nothing, so he sent him away. Empress Futong was very virtuous and said, "I heard that I There are things that people don’t ask for, and they would rather destroy them and throw them away than give them away.”

The implication is that Concubine Shu's suspicion may not be cleared yet.

Concubine De nodded, she didn't have that kind of mentality when she gave the fifth prince to the queen before... She didn't like the fifth prince, but no, I beg Chunjia, she also didn't want to take advantage of the queen from the bottom of her heart.

If she could make the decision herself, she would actually prefer the former if the fifth prince died and wasted or given to someone else.

Especially if you don't know whether the fifth prince went to the queen and asked to be his legitimate son, that would be so cruel.

After all, can he suddenly change his daughter and even his future children

Thinking about how respectful and humble Mrs. Chen was in front of me in the past, and then thinking about the attitude that I and my children need to show in front of the fifth prince in the future... I feel sad, I can't help feeling sad! ! !

Gu Zhen's eyes were very complicated, and he thought that only someone like the imperial concubine could think like that.

How can a normal person figure this out

"But if Concubine Shu is pregnant, if she doesn't admit it, you can't press her." The queen pondered to Dong and said, "What's the point of accepting Dong?"

Yun Fenghuang said: "Although the palace man in the east leg is dead, he didn't have a good relationship with him during his lifetime? Are you really not asking for any clues?"

I really didn’t ask...

The queen explained: "Although Concubine Shu did not send any confidants to take care of the second prince, she did not carefully select the palace servants. The palace servants seemed honest and responsible, and their relationship with their colleagues was not particularly good or bad. The overall style was She is not the kind of person who is honest and eloquent. Therefore, Concubine Shu thought that it would not be a big deal if she let him look after the prince... The people who had been taking care of the prince with him just now were all asked separately by Nadong, and they all said I have never found anything wrong with him. Otherwise, I would have reported it to him long ago. Who knows how to delay it until now?"

"Is there any cocoa?" Yun Fenghuang asked, "Someone found out but did not dare to say it for fear of being blamed? After all, if they didn't find out the clues, the main fault lies in Concubine Shu's ignorance of people. If they found out, they were either lazy or not aware of the situation at the time. Take it to your heart, in short, if you don’t report any reason, Mingyue will lead to such an ending, how can that slave have a good ending?"

The queen frowned and said: "I also have such speculation. If the question is not true, the slave slave Ru Ming is convinced that everyone is talking about it. It is difficult to judge whether it is true or false."

"Actually, it's not the most important thing to know the truth of the matter. The key is to be explained to the Empress Dowager." Yun Fenghuang thought for a while and said, "The news will come from Shan Yuan Guan tomorrow. The Second Prince How could the Empress Dowager not be angry after being mistreated like that? When the Regent finds out, he may take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, which will cause a headache to the Emperor."

"Who do I want to be the culprit?" Queen Gu asked suspiciously, "Could it be Concubine Shu? She is pregnant after all."

Even if Chunjia now has many children, who dares to say that it doesn't matter if the emperor has more or less heirs

In particular, Concubine Shu had a high status and was supported by powerful officials.

Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "Why Keke?"

The Ouyang family has had a good time cooperating with her in the past six months. Even if she burns bridges, Ru Ming will never get the chance.

"Concubine Shu came into the palace at the beginning of last year. She came to live in the Broken Bamboo House for the second time. She only stayed there for two months and then went back. I'm afraid she's not very familiar with it." She said calmly. He said, "Is there any cocoa? The person who was serving the second prince was a stranger to that place. So when he took the second prince to play by the pool, he accidentally stepped on something and tripped over something, causing his leg to fall. pool?"

Gu Zhen couldn't help but said: "Can we do it in full view of everyone..."

Everyone can see clearly whether to throw it away or not, okay

Is it really okay for me to just be so empty-mouthed and red-faced
