Dressed as a tyrant and kissing the little queen

Chapter 480 The Truth, Her Suspicion

There were dark rumors in the palace, Xiao Li didn't hear anything outside the window, but knew nothing about it.

I just feel that Chaoyun sometimes looks at her and hesitates to speak, but when he asks her, he just says nothing.

Occasionally when she was out of the palace, Xiao Li felt that the eyes of the palace maids and eunuchs looking at her were a little strange.

But she is not a person who likes to inquire, and she is too lazy to bother.

Until that day, I met Concubine Chang Min.

"Ms. Concubine Jing is very clever. Even I underestimated you."

Every time Chang Min sees Xiao Li, he always speaks in a way of talking, and Xiao Li is used to it.

Without squinting, she continued walking.

Chang Min sneered, "You are really brave enough to even dare to touch the Empress's children."

Xiao Li suddenly stopped and turned around: "What did you say?"

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Chang Min said disdainfully, "I have the guts to do it, don't I have the guts to admit it?"

Xiao Li glanced at her, "What did I do?"

"You can pretend to be confused by pretending to understand. Didn't you give the sedative incense to the empress? The imperial doctor's order said that the reason why the empress had a miscarriage is because of the sedative incense you gave!"

Chang Min looked at Xiao Li, tsk-tsk loudly, "You usually pretend to be so weak, but you are more ruthless than anyone else. In order to avoid you, the empress went back to Fang's house. You are still as if nothing happened. It really depends on you being the emperor." My cousin, is there nothing to fear? The Fang family and the Wei family will not give up easily when the mother and child are gone, Concubine Jing, you have caused such a disaster, do you think the emperor will still care about the relationship between you as cousins?"

Xiao Li seemed to have been hit hard on the heart by something suddenly, and she was stunned for a while.

She didn't even know when Chang Min left.

Zhao Yun called her "Niang Niang" several times, and Xiao Li's soul seemed to have just returned.

Her face seemed to lose any color in an instant, and the fingertips in her sleeves trembled violently.

Xiao Li didn't go back to the palace, and didn't want Chaoyun to accompany her, so she went to find Pang Shun, the chief servant.

She tried her best to sound calm, and asked Pang Shun how the investigation of Fang Qingyi's miscarriage was going.

Pang Shun faltered, his eyes dodged a little.

Originally, he planned to wait for the emperor to come back, and hand over all the witnesses and material evidence to the emperor for decision.

But Xiao Li insisted on telling him the results of the investigation.

Pang Shun had no choice but to speak.

"The Imperial Physician Order said that there is Lingling incense in the Anshenxiang, which will cause infertility and miscarriage in women."

Pang Shun glanced at Xiao Li with complicated eyes, "Mrs. Fang didn't believe it, so she took the Anshen incense to the doctor Xue of the Yin Medical Hall, and confirmed that there is no doubt that there is Lingling incense in the incense."

He is an old man in the palace, and he has watched Xiao Li grow up, so he knows Xiao Li's temperament somewhat.

Although the evidence this time is solid, Pang Shun doesn't really believe that Xiao Li will harm the empress.

There might be some misunderstanding.

Seeing Xiao Li's complexion was very bad, and he was lost, Pang Shun couldn't help persuading, "Concubine Jing, don't worry, when the emperor comes back, he will investigate this matter to the bottom."

Xiao Li's eyes were a little straightened, and she didn't know whether she heard his words or not, so she turned and left.

Zhao Yun waited very late that night, but he didn't see Xiao Li returning to the palace.

She frantically lit up the lantern and looked for Xiao Li everywhere.

Later, in the shadow of the flowers in the garden, I found Xiao Li curled up in a ball.

There is a large temperature difference between morning and evening in Kyoto. Although it is summer, it is still very cool at night.

Xiao Li's hands were cold, without any warmth.

Distressed, Zhao Yun asked the little maid to go back to the palace to get a cloak, wrapped Xiao Li up, and then helped her back to Yueli Palace.

Xiao Li didn't eat much for several days, and fell ill within a few days.

The imperial physician prescribed medicine for Xiao Li, but Xiao Li's condition did not improve, and he was lingering on the sick bed for more than a month.

Until the news came from the palace that the empress had returned to the palace, and the emperor was about to return from his southern tour.

When the Empress returned to the palace, Xiao Li went to see her according to the etiquette.

She barely supported herself, and asked Chaoyun to help her put on makeup, and finally covered up her overly pale face.

That day Xiao Li was stopped outside the Xinqing Palace, and the empress didn't even let her in, so she was told, "Just kneel down and meet me outside."

Xiao Li knelt outside the door for a long time, under the scorching sun, her forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Concubine Ru Concubine Chang Min gloated and laughed at her, twisted her waist and walked arrogantly in front of her.

Fang Qingyi chatted and played chess with Chang Min in the palace, and ate iced sweet soup, then went to take a nap and completely forgot about Xiao Li.

Xiao Li knelt outside the gate of Xinqing Palace all day, from day to night.

The empress did not speak, no one dared to wake Xiao Li up.

Fang Qingyi slept until midnight, when she faintly heard mourning and crying, and asked the maid to see what was going on, only then did she find Xiao Li still kneeling outside.

Xiao Li had already passed out, and the one crying was her maid, Zhao Yun.

Although Fang Qingyi hated Xiao Li for causing her to lose her child, seeing Xiao Li like this, he couldn't bear it.

"When she wakes up, you tell her that I will cancel the matter of the child with her, but how the emperor will deal with her when he comes back is none of my business."

Fang Qingyi said to Chao Yun with a cold face, "Also, I don't want to see her. She doesn't have to come to Xinqing Palace in the future. It's best to stay away from me and not appear in front of me."

When Xiao Li was sent back to the palace, she developed a high fever and fell into a coma.

Two days later, Lingjian toured the palace to the south, and he already knew about Fang Qingyi's miscarriage on the way.

As soon as Ling Jian returned to the palace, he went to Xinqing Palace first to appease Fang Qingyi.

Everyone thought that Concubine Jing was bound to suffer disaster this time, but Ling Jian came out of Xinqing Palace and went to Yueli Palace to visit.

To everyone's surprise, Ling Jian ordered a thorough investigation into Fang Qingyi's miscarriage, and within three days the real culprit was found out.

An eunuch in Yueli Palace was punished for having unclean hands and feet, and he held a grudge against Xiao Li, so he replaced the real Anshenxiang used for sleeping in Yueli Palace with "Shenshenxiang" containing Linglingxiang.

Without knowing it, Xiao Li transferred Anshen Xiang to Fang Qingyi, causing Fang Qingyi to have a miscarriage.

Even Xiao Li was a victim, and she hadn't been pregnant for two years, all thanks to this tranquilizing incense.

The truth was announced, the eunuch was sentenced to death, Fang Qingyi deeply felt that Xiao Li had been wronged, so he came to Yueli Palace specially, wanting to apologize to Xiao Li in person.

However, all the people who came to Yueli Palace were blocked by Ling Jian's order, the reason was that Xiao Li's illness was not recovered and he needed to rest.

*
Inside the Moon Palace.

Xiao Li sat weakly on the head of the bed, her cheeks became thinner, and her eyes, which were originally clear and moist, were rather dull and lifeless.

Holding the medicine, Ling Jian took a spoonful and blew on it to see if it was no longer hot, then said, "Open your mouth."

Xiao Li opened her mouth obediently, and slowly finished the bowl of medicine.

"The murderer who replaced An Shenxiang has already been punished."

Ling Jian recounted the situation he had investigated, and softened his voice, "I'm not here, and you have been wronged."

He heard from Chao Yun that Xiao Li knelt outside the gate of Xinqing Palace for a day and a night.

Although Fang Qingyi was not punished, from that day to now, for more than half a month, Ling Jian has been staying in Yueli Palace and has never set foot in Xinqing Palace.

There was no expression on Xiao Li's face, as if he was not surprised by the result.

"I'll go to Qianyuan Hall and come back to accompany you after I'm done."

Lingjian still has to deal with government affairs and cannot stay for long.

When he got up, Xiao Li's thin fingers grabbed his hand.

"Cousin." She raised her eyes to look at him, "An Shenxiang, is it really that person who replaced him secretly?"

When seeing Ling Jian in the past, her eyes shone with joy like a lake full of stars, but at this moment, she seemed a little too calm.

Ling Jian met her gaze, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

In the next second, he said calmly: "Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment personally investigated and interrogated, the evidence is solid, how can there be any falsehood."

Xiao Li looked at him for a while, a pale smile bloomed on the corner of his lips.

"Really." She said softly, "Thank you, cousin, for repaying my innocence."

Ling Jian was silent for a while, raised his hand to stroke her hair, helped her to lie down, covered her with the quilt, and was about to go out.

Xiao Li pursed her lips, "Cousin, I've been having nightmares these few nights, and the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor doesn't work."

Ling Jian comforted her, "The imperial physician ordered that this medicine must be taken continuously for ten and a half months, and the effect will not be obvious in a short period of time."

"But those nightmares are really scary. I always dream about the past, my mother."

Xiao Li grasped the corner of the quilt with both hands, as if recalling those scenes in the dream, her eyes widened, with a bit of uneasiness, she whispered, "Cousin, can you let Uncle Xue come into the palace to help me take a look? Maybe Uncle Xue will have a solution?"

Ling Jian's heart softened, and he nodded immediately: "Okay."

Ling Jian left.

Xiao Li closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

If it hadn't been for the past two years, An Shenxiang had been kept in a place where it was impossible for others to come into contact with, perhaps Xiao Li would have believed Ling Jian's words.

But more than two years ago, when Ling Jian sent the imperial physician to bring the soothing incense, she thought that Ling Jian couldn't sleep well at night, so she deliberately kept the soothing incense in the inner room. Except for Chaoyun, the other court ladies and eunuchs didn't know where to put.

How to change the little eunuch?How to change?
What's more, the little eunuch was punished for his unclean hands and feet back then, but it was Chao Yun who punished him.

Chao Yunqi just wanted to hand him over to Pang Shun, but Xiao Li stopped him. After asking him to promise not to commit another crime, he still allowed him to stay in Yueli Palace, which gave him a chance.

She has lived in the palace for many years, and her attitude towards servants has always been gentle. The little eunuch really hates Xiao Li, let alone hating Xiao Li. Where did he get the tranquilizing incense with Linglingxiang? Put all your effort into replacing the Anshen Xiang in Xiao Li Palace?

Xiao Li is more certain than who is sure of her own name and name. The tranquilizing incense she gave Fang Qingyi was the incense that Ling Jian asked the imperial physician to send to Yueli Palace.

She quietly asked Chaoyun to find the imperial physician who had brought incense to Yueli Palace back then.

It's a pity that the imperial physician left the palace two years ago and disappeared.

If you want to know the truth, perhaps that imperial doctor is the only breakthrough.

She didn't tell Ling Jian about her various doubts.

She has always believed in Ling Jian and has never concealed anything. For some reason, this time, she instinctively does not want to tell Ling Jian what she really thinks in her heart.

Ling Jian didn't suspect that there was something wrong with the imperial physician at all. On the contrary, he almost resolutely pushed all the blame on the young eunuch.

Xiao Li didn't dare to think about the deep meaning and truth behind this.
