Hou Kun

Chapter 268
People look very clean, with a white face and no beard.

As long as you take a few more glances, you can tell that you are still a person in the palace.

The emperor felt at ease first.Take a look, it looks a bit familiar.

Manager Rhubarb spoke beside him, "My lord, this is the double happiness in the queen's womb."

No wonder.The emperor said displeased, "Could it be that you want to escape if you dress up like this?"

Manager Da Huang continued, "Shuangxi was caught outside Zhenshun's gate. The guards felt suspicious, so they stopped and asked questions. Lord Long Live, look at that basket, and you will understand everything."

Shuangxi knew early on that she would not survive, but under the restraint of Manager Rhubarb, she had to talk back and forth.Manager Rhubarb said that as long as he told the truth, the Queen Mother would save his life.

He had no choice but to lift the lid of the basket very carefully, and carried the basket to the emperor.

In the basket lay a newborn child impressively.

When Shuangxi saw the emperor's eyes swelled with anger, he was so frightened that he shivered.But I dare not lose the basket in my hand.

"Slave is, I was ordered by my mother to throw this child out. Slave, I dare not be disobedient."

The queen turned pale.As soon as Shuangxi came in, she knew something was wrong.This old godmother's trip, I'm afraid she has already taken advantage of herself.

Concubine Kang yelled, crying with tears all over her face, "Master, Master, look, do you have three children...the princess must be a fake!"

She was crying, but the emperor became more and more angry, pointing at her and ordering her to shut up.

Panting, she looked back at the queen mother, "Ene, why is there another,,, child?"

Seeing that the emperor was out of breath, the empress dowager knew that her son was smart, so she already felt something was wrong.Fearing that he couldn't bear it, he hurriedly called Chuan Shen Cha.

She held the emperor's hand with tears in her eyes, "Emperor, Ernie is worried about trouble, and can't sleep these days. So she asked Dahuang to keep an eye on Jingren Palace. Now that the children have come back, don't worry, let's interrogate slowly , can always find out the whereabouts of elder brother."

The noise was too loud, the little elder brother in Da Huang's hand and the little princess in the nanny's arms were woken up, crying desperately.But the one in the basket remained motionless and slept soundly.

The emperor only felt a splitting headache.

Xiao Dezi's ginseng soup was delivered in time.The emperor drank it in a few sips and let out a long breath.The nurse over there took the little elder brother, called another one in, and picked up the baby in the basket. It was still quiet, neither crying nor fussing, as if it could not hear the movement in the room.

Empress Dowager Yin Ye came here, of course not to see Elder Brother.She intercepted the child that Jingren Palace was about to send out, and even brought it with her, why?
Seeing the emperor sitting and panting after drinking the ginseng soup, the queen's expression gradually returned to normal.

Without waiting for the emperor to ask, she said, "Huang Ernie has put so much thought into it, so she naturally knows the ins and outs of this matter, why don't you ask Huang Ernie to explain it clearly, so that my daughter-in-law can know the reason behind it."

The Empress Dowager slapped the table and said sharply, "Death is imminent, and I still don't know how to repent. How can I rest assured that the emperor is hiding you, a poisonous woman? You still come to ask me, what a good thing you did, and send people in your palace to throw away the child , the reason here, the Queen Mother does not understand, but I want to hear your explanation?!"

Concubine Kang let out an "Aww" and ran over early.

She looked at the sleeping child, and then at the one held by Manager Da Huang.There must be a child of Concubine Ning here.

"My lady, I beg you. Concubine Ning entered the palace not long ago. I don't dare to make your lady angry. The servant will take care of the harem for you, and I don't dare to slack off in the slightest. It's only my lady who follows her lead. My lady begs for your advice, which one is the right one?" Concubine Ning's child?"

She pointed directly at the Queen, Concubine Ning must have given birth to Elder Brother, at first she also thought that the one in Jingren Palace was the one, but now she dare not confirm it.

If the queen can find the flesh and blood of the uncle of the country to pretend to be, she must have a way to find another one.

The emperor just felt dizzy.

He reached a compromise with the queen before, but it was just so that she could protect her son in the future.But now it sounds like the empress is quite capable, and there is one hidden in the palace.

The queen mother continued, "It's so young, it's impossible to do a blood test. Come and get the jade plate, there will always be a mark on the child's landing, and you can always find it out by checking it in the book."

The empress looked at the empress dowager, although the empress dowager looked anxious, but the flash of smugness in her eyes made her feel cold.

"No need."

For a moment, everyone in the room looked at the Queen.

The queen stood up under the eyes of everyone, went to the emperor and knelt down, and stretched out her hand to hold the emperor, "Long live, do you believe in slaves?"

The emperor looked at her, hesitating.Thinking about the queen's usual intentions, she was a little soft-hearted, but thinking about her throwing Concubine Ning's son out for her own sake, it was not impossible.

The queen laughed.

The emperor is not fickle, he never believed her.

She pointed to the queen mother and said, "Then Long Live, do you believe her?"

The emperor became furious and shook off her hand, "You are crazy!"

The queen raised her hand, and Xiao Dezi, who was the closest, hurriedly stepped forward to give her a hand.Guo Qian watched coldly from the beginning to the end without saying a word.

The queen stood up and said calmly, "Since the queen mother has come, it is natural that everything has been arranged. Long live my lord, the servant has found a child to come in, just in case. What if the concubine Ning gave birth to a princess, what will happen to Daxia's future?" To do it, there must be an elder brother to support it.

Fortunately, Concubine Ning gave birth to an elder brother.

The slave kept him by his side and ordered someone to send the child out. "

The emperor was silent.

He originally felt that there were some loopholes in the queen's arrangement, if Concubine Ning and the servant both had daughters, wouldn't all her thoughts be in vain?
So what the queen said should be true.

But who exactly is she leaving behind?
The queen smiled again. "You don't need to invite the jade plate, this child has obviously been replaced."

She had already figured it out just now, the praying mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind.It's the Queen Mother.I am busy dealing with the emperor here, and the queen mother is just sitting there to reap the benefits.The child she left behind was indeed Concubine Ning's, but the Queen Mother had already replaced it.

That's why the Empress Dowager Yin Ye came here to put on such a good show.

When these words came out, the emperor refused to believe himself.

She's in despair right now.But she can't throw in the towel like that.

Rhubarb is in charge of both ends of the head and mouse, one side is relying on himself, and the other side is still working for the queen mother.It was I who ignored, ignored the empress dowager's conduct.

But what does it all matter?She is not so easy to admit defeat.

Why did Rhubarb betray himself again?He had been desperate before.

Since entering the palace, many clues have passed through her mind.She has had a suspicion for a long time, but she has not been able to prove it.Now she has no choice but to gamble and lose like this.

She slowly approached Rhubarb, looked closely at it, and suddenly slapped him.

"You lowly slave! When the emperor ascended the throne, you actually fed the late emperor duck soup mixed with medicine. The late emperor was killed by you!"
