Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 395
As soon as Nan Surou opened her mouth, the queen knew that she had just been impulsive and said the wrong thing, so she changed into a kind face of comforting the child, patted Nan Surou's little hand, and said: "Don't let these filthy things dirty Let's not look at your eyes." Then, the queen turned her head and told the somewhat weird "Prince" behind her: "Prince, you send Princess Ruiherou back to the side hall to rest first."

At this time, the "Prince" made a very unreasonable move. He was like a hen protecting the chicks, and he wrapped Nan Surou's waist and hid behind him like flowing water.

This action made the queen startled.

Nan Surou was "carried" by the prince like a chicken.

The emperor also saw this shocking move, and couldn't help scolding: "What are you doing, frightening that child."

The "Prince" smiled evilly and said, "Father, let's settle this matter sooner. You see, the Queen Mother has been so busy with this sacrificial activity that she can't keep her eyes open. She still has to deal with such messy things." , too hard."

Nan Surou couldn't help complaining in her heart, if this guy doesn't care about his mouth, he will be recognized sooner or later.

The tone of the prince's speech seemed to say that today's food is not good, so hurry up and withdraw it.

Everyone looked at the crown prince in astonishment, what did he mean by that, today the matter is messed up, the priest was interrupted by poisonous insects, and the dead baby was found in Concubine Hua's kitchen , and then there is Hu Mancao, such a complicated matter, the prince actually said to solve it early so that he can go back to sleep?

This kind of thing happened, everyone is in danger, can they still sleep happily?
The emperor was a little angry, and was about to reprimand, but who knows, the crown prince said casually and methodically: "Could it be that the sacrificial activities disturbed Gu, which aroused Gu's anger and accidentally injured Concubine Lian?"

"What do you mean by that?" the emperor asked with a gloomy face.

"My father, now that the plague is raging outside, the people secretly say that there are evildoers who cast spells to make trouble. To put it bluntly, they suspect that someone secretly practiced witchcraft. Isn't the dance to sacrifice to the sky tonight just for the sake of victory? Conquering monsters and monsters is the same as using magic spells to achieve the goal of defeating all hated people, and the sacrifice is just to suppress this demon with prayer." The prince said methodically, "During the sacrifice, the concubine lotus was attacked by poisonous insects. It's just that the sacrifice played a role in angering the Gu, and the restless Gu will come out to murder Concubine Lian."

The emperor frowned, the prince's words made sense, but in the final analysis, if no one in the palace raised the poison, how could there be so many poisonous insects?

What the prince said was very deceptive. Although the concubines around did not dare to whisper, they all looked pale. This kind of aversion to victory is the most taboo in the palace. They are also very superstitious, and they are worried that they will be cursed.

The prince looked at the faces of the people, and the corners of his lips raised an evil curve, "The concubine Huagui just said that the Zihe cart in the kitchen of the Ronghua Palace was sent by the concubine Lian, and there is also Hu Mancao in it, which is specially used for plant Gu. It's a bit more complicated, is Concubine Lian planning to poison Concubine Hua to death with the Hu Mancao, or is she planning to use this Zihe cart filled with Hu Mancao to frame Concubine Hua Gui to perform witchcraft?"

Everyone couldn't help frowning. No matter which one it was, it was a serious crime. Besides, Concubine Lian was tired of doing it so recklessly and blatantly, right?
"If this is the case, things will be a bit strange. If Concubine Lian raised Gu herself, she wouldn't let poisonous insects torment herself during the dance, would she? Just torment the other concubines who performed the dance, why have to try it out by themselves? A bad one may cost your life." The prince sighed and said: "Father, the ninth younger brother also testified just now, saying that Concubine Lian has always had a very good relationship with Concubine Hua Gui. How about changing your life for the life of Concubine Hua Guifei?"

Contradictory, inexplicable.

This sentence flashed in everyone's mind.

Immediately, everyone began to understand in their hearts that what the prince meant was that Concubine Lian was just a victim.

At this time, the little eunuch under Deng Bingxian escorted another little eunuch into Jingkun Palace.

The emperor was annoyed, saw the little eunuch, and before Deng Bingxian could speak, he said angrily: "Deng Bingxian, if the little eunuch committed any crimes, he will be dealt with according to the law. If it's a trivial matter, don't bother me."

At this moment, the little eunuch under Deng Bingxian said something in Deng Bingxian's ear.

Deng Bingxian said solemnly: "Your Majesty, this little eunuch is Xie Hongbiao from Concubine Lotus Palace."

Hearing this sentence, the prince immediately laughed mockingly: "Oh, it's because the master can't speak, the slave came here to avenge his grievance?"

"Shut up—" the emperor finally couldn't bear the abnormal prince today, and then he frowned, "What's going on?"

"My servant pays homage to His Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Xie Hongbiao knelt down on the ground, trembling all over, with a terrified expression on his face.

"What are you doing here? Tell me quickly." The Queen Mother is old, and she couldn't understand a single word of the messy analysis just now. She just wanted a result, and it's hard to leave now.

Xie Hongbiao was shaking like a sifter, he didn't dare to peek at any master, his mind was filled with Nan Surou's instructions, he said tremblingly: "As for the empress dowager, concubine Huagui often looks for Zihe chariots on weekdays, and often distributes some extra For Concubine Lian, Concubine Hua Guifei sent someone to Concubine Lian today with fresh purple river carts, but there were heartbroken grass in it, Concubine Lian was stung by poisonous insects and seriously injured, the imperial doctor is in Yelian Palace, slave When I was worried about the little master, the purple river cart could not be kept for too long, so I was rushed to deal with it, but the imperial doctor happened to be there, and inspected the purple river cart that was made to eat, and said that it was poisonous inside and could not be eaten. The servants were shocked Angry, the young master was tortured like this, the concubine Huagui poisoned her, the slave had no choice but to come and tell the empress, and beg the empress to protect the young master, who knows... who knows Jingkun Palace... ..." There are so many people in Jingkun Palace...

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

After Xie Hongbiao finished speaking in a crackling breath, Concubine Hua almost fainted from anger.

Concubine Hua Gui finally calmed down her nervous emotions just now, and she wanted to use Concubine Lian as a scapegoat, who knew that Concubine Lian could make a little eunuch come here to chew her tongue even if she was unconscious.

Concubine Hua Gui was furious, her beautiful eyes were finally filled with horror, she said in a broken voice: "You dog slave, you have wronged me!"

Xie Hongbiao also seemed to be in a hurry, as if he mustered up a lot of courage, and said: "Concubine Hua Gui, if you do many injustices, you will kill yourself. Concubine Lian regards you as a good sister on weekdays. She never neglects the things you give me. , that disgusting Ziheche, she swallowed it hard, I beg you not to torture her anymore, I beg you! I beg you! Let Concubine Lian go!"

While talking, Xie Hongbiao kowtowed in the direction of Concubine Hua, like a dog loyally protecting his lord.
