Chapter 112 Pebbles
"Reporting to Your Majesty, only Changle Palace sent people to ask for pebbles this month."

The eunuch in charge of the greenhouse was heard and was kneeling at His Highness to report.

Wu Jieyu and Jiang Zhi looked at each other for a moment, their eyes flickered, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty is not usually keen on flowers and plants, how come you are interested this time?"

Liu Qiyun gave her a squinting look: "Wu Jieyu's words are interesting, what should I do, should I tell you?"

Wu Jieyu lowered her eyes: "I don't dare... I just think it's just a coincidence that Zhao Cairen lost her baby due to the pebbles on the back foot after the empress went to fetch the pebbles."

"Ridiculous, aren't you saying that Ben Gong harmed her!"

Liu Qiyun slapped the table hard, Wu Jieyu's shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was shocked.

"...Don't take it to heart, empress, this concubine is just talking."

Wu Jieyu said in a soft voice, and then fell silent after speaking.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry, it hurts you a lot." Zhang Shuyi said, seemingly trying to smooth things over, "But... sister Jieyu's words are not unreasonable. What's more, Zhao Cairen came out of the Empress Palace that day. Imperial Garden, why don't you tell the people from Changle Palace who went to the flower house that day to come?"

Liu Qiyun laughed back angrily: "One or two of you, if you eat the bear's heart and leopard, you dare to pour dirty water on me?"

"Pass it on."

Emperor Liang said lightly, and Liu Qiyun suddenly turned her head, her face full of disbelief: "Your Majesty?"

"If you are right, what are you afraid of?"

Liu Qiyun gritted her teeth, and said in a muffled voice: "Fu Xia, go and call someone."

"Yes."

Emperor Liang closed his eyes half-closed in silence, seemingly normal.But Liu Qiyun has been with him for many years, so she is aware of Emperor Liang's impatience and suspicion.

She was trembling in her heart, and when she met Jiang Zhi's smiling eyes, she couldn't help feeling ominous.

She regretted coming here today.

"Does the gravel road in the imperial garden need to be repaired?"

Pei Qing stared at the eunuch in charge and suddenly asked, the eunuch was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "Reporting to the palm prints, it is true that the stone road needs to be repaired regularly, but it is not yet time."

"In other words, there shouldn't be loose stones at this time?"

The eunuch in charge didn't understand what he meant, but he still told the truth: "Yes."

Jiang Zhi immediately understood: "Your Majesty, if Caiyi's words are true, then Zhao Cairen will wrestle, and someone must have hindered it."

Emperor Liang remained silent and did not respond, but everyone was already used to his appearance, so they didn't care.

Liu Qiyun frowned, staring at Jiang Zhi with an uneasy expression.

At that time, in the side hall, Zhao Cairen was in tears, but he didn't say a word.

The two maids who went to fetch the candied fruit hadn't come back yet, Zhu Yan was still kneeling beside her, the soup in her hands was getting cold.

"It's really... well, why is Saito still crying?"

Song Qing'an spoke with pity, took out the handkerchief and gently wiped away her tears.

Zhao Cairen closed his eyes, and his eyebrows were stained with a thick color of sorrow.

"Bamboo smoke."

She called out, and Zhu Yan handed the medicine bowl to Song Qing'an.

"If Zhao Cairen thinks the medicine is too bitter and he doesn't want to drink it, he can drink it next time."

Song Qing'an smiled softly, walked to the flower pot in the hall with the medicine in his hand, and poured all the soup into it neatly.

Zhao Cairen suddenly opened his eyes, looking at Song Qing'an with astonishment in his eyes.

"what happened?"

Song Qing'an raised his eyebrows, and handed the empty bowl to Zhu Yan.

"When the two servant girls asked, they said that Zhao Cairen had already drunk the medicine."

"Yes."

Bamboo smoke retreated to one side, hiding in the shadows.

"Princess……"

Zhao Cairen trembled, and tears welled up in his eyes again.

"Tairen... do you want to say something?"

Song Qing'an walked slowly to the soft couch, leaned over and whispered softly.

Zhao Cairen opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

In the end, she turned her head and looked out of the window in a low voice: "I'm not feeling well, the princess should go back."

Song Qing settled down for a moment, then continued: "The talent is so sad, is it because of that child, or something else?"

Zhao Cairen's body trembled more and more, Song Qing'an gave Zhu Yan a wink, and the latter knocked Zhao Cairen unconscious.

Song Qing'an straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief.

"If there is a problem..."

She lowered her eyes and murmured, at this time the two maidservants had already brought back the candied fruit.

"Let's put it aside, Cairen drank the medicine and just fell asleep."

Song Qing'an looked back and smiled lightly. Seeing that Zhao Cairen was indeed sleeping on the couch, the two maids put down the candied fruit as they said, and went back.

Song Qing'an looked away, looked at the unconscious Zhao Cairen, picked up a piece of candied fruit and ate it himself.

"Let's go, Zhuyan, it's time to go back."

The candied fruit was sweet and not greasy, Song Qing'an stretched his eyebrows, very satisfied.

As soon as she walked to the corridor, she saw Fuxia leading a maid into the main hall from afar.

"The action is quite fast..."

Song Qing'an was chanting, and suddenly remembered something: "Zhuyan, go and call Xiaotao here. Remember..."

Zhu Yan retreated in response, Song Qing'an raised the corners of his lips in a good mood, and walked slowly towards the main hall.
-
As soon as Fuxia took Xiangui into the hall, Ale was startled and took half a step back.

Jiang Zhi noticed something strange and asked him, "What did you see?"

Ale's expression was terrified, and he tremblingly said: "This... this girl seems to be the Gong'e I saw that day."

"what?"

"what!"

Jiang Zhi and Liu Qiyun shouted at the same time, but the former was in doubt, while the latter was outraged.

"Look carefully, is it really her?"

Jiang Zhi glanced at Xiangui, and a dark light flashed across her eyes.

A Lefu looked up for a while, and said fearfully: "Return to your mother... so... this is the elder sister."

"Nonsense!" Liu Qiyun snapped, but after feeling Emperor Liang's gaze, she forcibly suppressed her voice, "So what if it's really her? You just saw her there, but you never saw what she was doing."

"Xiangui?"

Jiang Zhi raised her eyebrows and looked at the maid behind Fuxia.

"My maidservant sees His Majesty, sees Your Majesty."

Xiangui took a few steps forward and knelt down on the ground.

"Since it was something you went to fetch, tell me, what did you do?"

Xiangui buried her head and remained silent, but her body trembled slightly.

"Your Majesty is asking a question! Why don't you answer!"

Dong Ruo reprimanded, seeing Xiangui like this, Liu Qiyun felt more and more ominous.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Everything was instigated by Concubine Liu, and this servant girl was forced to do nothing!"

Xiangui suddenly raised her voice, startling everyone.

Emperor Liang paused in his hands, and slowly rolled his eyes to look at Xiangui.

"Instigate what?"

"Liu...Concubine Liu asked her servant to fetch the pebbles, and after Zhao Cairen left the palace, she followed up quietly, looking for opportunities... looking for opportunities to make Cairen stumble."

As Xian Gui trembled and said, Jiang Zhi looked at Liu Qiyun with more shock.

"Sister...you are so vicious."

When Song Qing'an stepped into the hall, he just overheard this conversation.

"You bastard is talking nonsense! When did I ask you to do this before!"

Liu Qiyun slapped the table hard, got up suddenly, and in a rage, she slapped Xiangui hard.The sharp armor slashed across its face, leaving a long and deep bloodstain, with blood beads rolling down gradually.

Xiangui let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground.

"And you! You must have ordered this lowly servant girl to bite and frame me!"

Liu Qiyun looked at Jiang Zhi again, her eyes were fierce.She stepped forward and raised her hand to hit Jiang Zhi.

"Hold her."

Pei Qing glanced at Emperor Liang's expression, raised his hand and gave an order lightly.The guards on both sides immediately stepped forward and captured Liu Qiyun.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I have been wronged!"

The arm was pinched so painfully, Liu Qiyun finally regained consciousness, and immediately complained to Emperor Liang.
