The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 606 Conspiracy to seize the emperor's heir (7)
When the two nannies heard the emperor's order, their legs and feet became weak and their faces turned pale. Seeing Leng Zhaoyi pleading for them, they hurriedly nodded, "Your Majesty, the servants don't dare to harm you." Prince, the servants are wet nurses, they only want to serve the prince well, and they dare not think of sharing the anger of man and god, and the servants themselves have children, how can they do such unreasonable things, are they not afraid of retribution to their own children?"

Seeing that Leng Zhaoyi was their guarantor, and seeing the sincerity of their words, Xiao Jun said coldly: "Since Leng Zhaoyi trusts you, you should stay here for now and wait for news from the Punishment Department. "

Only then did the two nannies feel like they had narrowly escaped death, and hurriedly knelt down to thank the emperor: "Slaves and servants, thank the emperor for his trust, and thank you, Madam Zhaoyi."

The eldest prince's cry was weak and feeble, his little face was flushed red, Qingchen felt very distressed when he saw it, and couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic to Xiao Jieyu, at this time, she must be heartbroken, right?

The emperor summoned Gu Yunfeng to help take care of the eldest prince, and the nurse managed to coax the child to sleep after feeding him.

Seeing Xiao Jieyu carrying the child into the inner room, Concubine Li seemed very unbearable, and sighed: "It's really pitiful, such a small child has to suffer this kind of suffering, my concubine can't wait to go for him, a minister tomorrow This concubine must make a wish in front of the Buddha, if the eldest prince can recover quickly, this concubine would rather lose ten years of life."

The emperor didn't say a word, and the others didn't even bother to talk to her. Only the empress said lightly: "Concubine Li is serious. The eldest prince has the protection of his ancestors and the love of the emperor. He will surely get through his illness safely. There is no need for you to make such a serious wish." , you should take care of yourself and strive to add a prince to the royal family as soon as possible to be serious."

Concubine Li rubbed her eyes and said, "Yes, what the empress taught me is that the concubine just watched the eldest prince suffering from illness, and his heart ached so badly, and there was nothing he could do to relieve his pain, so I wanted to ask the Buddha to bless me in desperation." , and please don’t blame the empress.”

The queen shook her head and said, "What can I blame you for? I am the aunt, so if you want to sacrifice your life to pray for blessings, you should also discount your life. How can I let you do such a thing for me."

Xiao Jun frowned and said: "The empress is too serious. I would rather cut off my own life in exchange for the eldest prince's less pain. I am his father. I am also responsible for not taking good care of him. So if it is possible, I will I would rather suffer all this for him."

Seeing that the emperor was also very anxious, the queen could only comfort her again: "Your majesty, the eldest prince is auspicious, and he will be fine."

Xiao Jun nodded lightly, "I hope so."

Seeing Concubine Li's pretentious appearance, Qingchen was furious in his heart, and wished he could go up and slap her hard twice, but couldn't bear it any longer, and sneered, "Mrs. There are gods in the first three feet, the empress will go to the Buddhist hall to pray for blessings tomorrow, the Buddha will definitely see through the sincerity of the empress, and he will definitely not suffer the eldest prince, nor will he let the treacherous villain who harmed the elder prince be spared. Sooner or later, she will use up all her blessings and die unhappily."

To outsiders, this remark has no other meaning, but it is just an angry remark that she thinks that Qi'er is framed by someone, but it is completely different from Concubine Li's ears, but she is not sure Did Qingchen know something? Seeing that the emperor was already in a bad mood, he understood that he couldn't quarrel with Qingchen at this time to make the emperor even more upset, so he wisely snorted and replied lightly, "I think so too, I hope It would be good if the Punishment Department can quickly find out who framed the eldest prince."

Qingchen smiled and said nothing, turned his face away and didn't want to see Concubine Li's hypocritical face again.

No one spoke, and the Ziwei Hall fell into silence. Qingchen seemed to have experienced such depressing moments since entering the palace too many times. The palace servants who were waiting on the side didn't even dare to move like stone sculptures.

A sneer flashed across the corner of the Queen's mouth, Concubine Li, now that she is favored by the Emperor, she dares to do such nasty things in private without discussing with her. She really wants to fly before her wings grow hard. This kind of trick is to hold the eldest prince to his knees and raise him, so that he can get rid of her control, dreaming!

In less than half an hour, someone from the Punishment Department said back and forth: "Your Majesty, a maidservant who served the First Prince in the Ziwei Palace has confessed, saying that it was... that Yao Shuyi ordered her to take the unclean Yao Shuyi entrusted a young eunuch who often went out of the palace to find it, in order to kill the eldest prince."

The result of this interrogation surprised everyone. Qingchen instantly understood Concubine Li's intentions. It seems that today she must plot against a prince and hold her to her side as a talisman. She is afraid of the emperor's neglect and her She didn't have the capital to stand up, so she was anxious to seek a prince to rely on.

The breath was stuck in her chest, and her chest hurt from the pressure of her anger, which distorted her usually peaceful face.

The Queen and Concubine Ning were also slightly surprised when they heard this, and soon understood, Concubine Ning sneered and remained silent, and the Queen shook her head lightly and remained silent.

Xiao Jieyu first knelt down and cried out impatiently: "Your Majesty, Yao Shuyi wants to harm Qi'er, she must be afraid that Qi'er will compete with Yun'er for the emperor's love in the future. In the end, she just wants to get rid of Qi'er." Qi'er, let Yun'er become the only heir of the emperor, so that Yun'er can successfully inherit the throne in the future..."

"What nonsense!" The queen interrupted sharply: "Is Xiao Jieyu not clear-headed yet, do you know what you are talking about?"

What Xiao Jieyu said is exactly what those people who don't know the truth think, but many things in the royal family are like this, even if you understand it in your heart, you must never say it out loud, Xiao Jieyu is too eager, Or maybe it was because he was afraid that the emperor would protect Yao Shuyi for the sake of the second prince, so he said everything regardless.

When Xiao Jun heard Xiao Jieyu's words, she was not only chilled but also frightened. He had only ascended the throne for two years, and the two princes were still in their infancy for less than [-] days. Make him feel annoyed.

The teacup in his hand slammed down on the table, and the hot tea spilled all over the table. The emperor said in a cold voice with a livid face: "Since Xiao Jieyu said it, I'm here to make a statement. In the future, I will make a big effort to establish the crown prince. No matter how old or young you are, I only stand for the virtuous, have you all heard me clearly?"

Although the emperor did this for the sake of the society, it was also for the safety of the eldest prince. If there were no such words, this child might encounter more crises in the future.

The queen immediately led the crowd and said: "Yes, the concubines have made a note."
