Concubine, she rises step by step

Chapter 155
After Chu Jing died, the clue of the imperial physician was cut off.

The Queen Mother racked her brains and urged the Department of Punishment to investigate those who are in charge of spices, but this is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. Who would be so stupid as to leave the spices.

Another clue is to check the two palaces, but they are almost turned upside down, and they haven't seen anything wrong.

Seeing that the situation has fallen into a deadlock again, the empress dowager's anxious thing is that she can't sleep all night, she always feels like a thorn in her back, she really can't bear it.

Everyone in the palace knew that the Empress Dowager was not only favored by the late emperor, but also her methods were extremely ruthless. If she treats someone as a thorn in her side and doesn't take it off, the Empress Dowager will not give up.

When Zhang Chong, the Punishment Department, came to report the situation, the Queen Mother was thinking about how to speed up the progress.

"How is it?" The Queen Mother asked in a muffled voice without raising her eyes.

Zhang Chong said solemnly: "The maids and eunuchs of the two palaces all said they hadn't done it."

The Queen Mother frowned slightly, and said in a cold voice: "I don't believe that there is no mouth that can't be pried! If you don't say it, you are either innocent or the punishment is not enough. As long as it is something that people have done, there will always be clues for Ai. Search the house inch by inch, one by one!"

Zhang Chong's scalp became tense, and his body tensed unconsciously, "Yes!"

Now that the result cannot be found out, the queen mother blames it, so he can only increase the punishment. If he can't find anything, it will be regarded as "not guilty" in the queen mother's mouth.

There are strict masters above and cruel officials below, and all the people who may be involved are almost miserable.

For a while, everyone in the palace was in danger and became more cautious in doing things.The New Year is bustling outside the palace, but the palace is respectful as usual.

Sheng Yi felt sorry, so he ran to Jiayu Hall and Zhongcui Palace every three days, trying to make Zi Ning and Zhang Yazhi feel better.

Zhi Xia held the new fabric, full of reluctance, "Madam, you haven't touched this material at all, Ning Guiren and Zhang Guiren have it from the House of Internal Affairs, why bother to send it over."

Sheng Yi didn't care about these virtual things, pretending to be relaxed and said: "This palace is so beautiful, do you still use these clothes to set it off?"

This sentence actually made Zhixia laugh out loud, nodded repeatedly, and echoed: "That's it, that's it. Your Majesty, you are so beautiful and beautiful, and you look forward to the brilliance, how can it be compared to ordinary people."

Sheng Yi looked like she couldn't bear it anymore, "Okay, okay, the hat is too high and will fall off easily."

Zhixia understands that the master feels guilty for running here twice in three days, but he doesn't blame the lady, what if the two nobles really get used to it, "My lady, actually, this I can't blame you for this matter at all, neither you provoked it, nor did you instigate it, and the two nobles never said anything to blame you, does this servant think that we have gone too far?"

After all, Sheng Yi was not completely born in this era. She could not take it for granted. The education she received was that everyone is equal and harmonious coexistence. Even if there is some competition, it is almost within the legal scope. But in this palace It is full of insidiousness and cunning, and even gambling with one's life. She really can't digest it. Only in this way can she feel that she has not deviated from the modern thinking of socialist core values. She can fearlessly use modern ideas and principles to do things. , perhaps, this is also her "bottom line".

Only Sheng Yi murmured: "Of course what you said is good, but I feel that everything doesn't have to be so true, God is watching everything you do, and it will not let you suffer, nor will it let you down. Perhaps this thought can also be transformed into strength to help you."

Zhixia looked at the empress in bewilderment, this was not in line with what she said.

Sheng Yi looked at Zhi Xia's incomprehensible affection, and smiled brightly, "Anyway, just go!"

Well, I understand this sentence.

Jiayu Hall.

"Your Excellency, Concubine Sheng is here." Caiyue said to Ning Guiren.

Zi Ning hurriedly put down the little clothes she was sewing, and said happily: "Please come in, sister."

Sheng Yi stood at the screen for a long time before she felt a little warmer all over, and the coldness in her body had dissipated. Then she came in, looked over and saw the clothes beside Zi Ning, and said with a smile: "Are you making clothes again?"

There was a slight sadness in Zi Ning's eyes, and her face looked haggard, she tried her best to relax and said: "For some reason, I always want to make more clothes for Junti, otherwise, it's easy to think wildly..."

have a bee in one's bonnet……

Sheng Yi was also a little disappointed, and took the initiative to hold Zi Ning's hand, and said as comfortingly as possible: "Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you."

Zi Ning forced a smile, "The Queen Mother has been investigating for so long, what's the use of it?"

Sheng Yi never thought that Zi Ning, who has always been known as a small writer, would be so depressed, "The emperor said, no matter what this time, we must find out."

Zi Ning looked solemn, "I'm already in this situation, even if I cut this person into pieces, I can't give birth again. Now, I only hope that Junti can grow up safely and find out this person. It’s not to avenge myself, but I don’t want to leave any factors that may harm Junti. To be honest, sister, I’m also afraid that if I’m too radical, it will make bad people harm Junti.”

Tears lingered faintly in Zi Ning's eyes, and her eyes seemed to contain indescribable frustration and fear...

Kindness was deeply touched in her heart, it turned out that no matter how eloquent a person meets a child, they will restrain their sharpness like this. No wonder, Zi Ning would rather wait for the queen mother to make a conclusion than take the initiative to go to the emperor.

"It is precisely because we are afraid that Junti will be hurt that we have to find out this person. Only when the black sheep are completely eliminated, can Junti have no worries." Sheng Yi said firmly.

The tears still lingered on Zi Ning's face. She looked at Sheng Yi and choked with sadness: "Zi Ning thanked sister..."

He waved his hands kindly, and his tone gradually became depressed, "Don't thank me, I'm really sad."

Zhixia couldn't help it anymore, so she said: "Mr. Ning Gui, you don't even know. Ever since you found out about your situation, your empress has insomnia almost every night, and she always sighs."

"Zhixia, you're talking too much again!" Sheng Yi hurriedly stopped Zhixia.

How could Zi Ning not know what kind of person Sheng Yi was? With a bitter smile in her tears, she looked at Xue Duan beside her and said, "I know your sister's character best. She must be worried about me and Junti during this period." How about, why don't you leave such a good snow satin at all, and send it to us?"

With a deep sigh, he said, "It's good that you're fine."

Afterwards, Shengyi took out a golden lock from his bosom, looked at Zining with sincerity, and said: "This is the custom of our parents, and there is a gift for meeting children. That is, the time limit for craftsmen is too slow. Now I just played it well, and I hope that our Junti can be safe soon and have a smooth life."

Then Zi Ning's tears flowed uncontrollably from the heavy golden lock with delicate patterns.

Sheng Yi hurriedly wiped Zi Ning's tears in a panic, and said: "Oh, you can't cry anymore, you will get sick, so be happy!"

Zi Ning's eyes were warm, "Thank you, sister, and I also thank Madam Sheng on Junti's behalf."

Sheng Yi smiled brightly, "I like to hear these words. From now on, you just need to bring Junti to Zhaoyang Palace a few more times. The more I look at Junti, the more I like it."

Zi Ning smiled and nodded, she must...

Coming out of Zhaoyang Palace, Sheng Yi thought about it, and took Zhixia to Zhongcui Palace.

Zhang Guiren didn't seem to be obviously sad or happy, and even had a little bit of relief...
