royal princess

Chapter 125
Qi Ronghua took a step forward, bowed to the empress and noble concubine, and then said: "At that time, the concubine was chatting with Xi Wanyi, when the concubine turned her head, she suddenly found that the palace lantern that had been in good condition before suddenly fell over. At that time, the concubine was terrified, and she didn't know what was going on in her mind, so she went to push Xi Wanyi like a ghost." Speaking of the incident at that time, Qi Ronghua's face was still pale, which can be seen I was really scared at the time, and I repeated it now, trembling slightly, with a frightened face, "I have never encountered such a dangerous thing before, thinking about it now, I still have lingering fears and can't help myself."

"Did you see any good people or things at that time?" the Queen asked with a frown.

Qi Ronghua shook his head, his eyes were red, "The concubine was almost frightened, she didn't see anything but the overturned palace lantern." Speaking of which, he stretched out his hand, "At that time, the concubine pushed With Xi Wanyi's hand, the lamp oil from the palace lantern spilled out, and some of it splashed on the arm of the concubine. The concubine was so hot that she hurt, so she didn't have the energy to look at other things, and she really didn't notice it."

Several people in the hall looked at Qi Ronghua's rolled-up half of his sleeves, and sure enough, they saw scalded blisters on the white and delicate arms and backs of hands, which looked quite scary.

The faces of the queen and the noble concubine were all terrified, and the queen said: "Why didn't you say that at the time? Aunt Tong, call the imperial physician."

"Yes." Aunt Tong immediately turned around and went out to order someone to invite the imperial physician.

Qi Ronghua lowered his sleeves to cover the wound, and said in a low voice: "Chen Qie's injury is not fatal. Although Xi Wanyi was pushed by Chen Qie at that time, she was hit on the head by a palace lantern. Her face was full of blood, and she died. Crisis, how can a concubine cause trouble at this time."

"You are a good person, the most important thing is to understand the general situation. I will report to the emperor." The queen looked at Qi Ronghua and sighed. Qi Ronghua has always followed the rules since entering the palace and has never caused trouble.She saved Xi Wanyi's life today, but she didn't hide it when she hurt herself, she is indeed kind-hearted.

The queen has all kinds of thoughts, but she is still willing to treat kindly those who are not against her in the palace and who have some kindness in her heart.At this time, making such a promise to Qi Ronghua is to honor her, which is naturally an excellent thing.

Qi Ronghua was not overjoyed when he heard the words, but said: "Although the concubine has not had much contact with Xi Wanyi, she has always been kind to others since she entered the palace and never competed with others. , and hope God bless her safe and sound."

The queen nodded and looked at Dou Fangyi again, "What did you see at that time?"

Dou Fangyi was timid, but when the queen asked her this question, she burst into tears before she could speak.Resisting her fear, she said: "Chen... I didn't see anything at the time, I was eating with my head down, and I was bumped by Xi Wanyi. At that time... I was frightened at that time, I couldn't... What can I see."

Dou Fangyi's tears fell one by one, but she didn't dare to cry out, she was shaking into a ball, which was really embarrassing.

The queen looked at her with a headache, then turned to look at the imperial concubine, "Is there anything you want to ask, the imperial concubine?"

Concubine Su looked arrogantly, looked at the queen and said: "The empress wants to interrogate people in my palace, so please do whatever you want."

The empress could not hear the thorn in Concubine Su's words, being so provoked by her, the empress was a little annoyed no matter how good-tempered she was, and said lightly: "Since the imperial concubine is so generous, I will not be polite."

The imperial concubine snorted coldly, "No matter whoever wants to pour dirty water on me, if I find out, the empress will uphold justice."

"Not only my palace, but also the emperor will not be merciless, the noble concubine can rest assured."

The two of you come and go, fighting each other in words.Others stood there just like logs, Concubine Xian glanced at everyone, and then her eyes fell on the place where the palace lantern fell.In addition to the lamp oil all over the floor, there was also a large amount of blood in it. After bleeding so much, I don't know if Xi Wanyi can survive.

It is not necessarily a good thing that this person is too favored, there is no telling when, and how many people want your life.

There are so many people in this palace, and the imperial concubine's birthday is very grand and lively. I don't know how many people participated in it. Everyone is suspicious. It may not be easy to find out.

The empress temporarily sealed off the main hall of Changle Palace, it would be very inconvenient for the noble concubine to stay in Changle Palace, and what happened, not to mention people like the noble concubine, even the empress would be a little uncomfortable.The imperial concubine wanted to take Princess Yuzhen to another palace first for the convenience of investigation.

Naturally, the empress did not dare to make decisions lightly, she could only ask the emperor for instructions first, and then make a conclusion.

In matters like investigating a case, it still needs a professional, the Secretary of the Shang Palace Bureau, to come and decide the case.The empress immediately summoned Si Zheng to come, and news spread quickly that something like this happened in the palace, Si Zheng had been on standby for a long time, and he arrived as soon as the empress called.

This place was handed over to professionals, and the Queen led them straight to Yihexuan.As soon as she entered, she saw Yunshang coming out with a basin of water. She looked up and saw that the water was thick red, and she felt a little unwell.

"Greetings to the empress." Yun Shang immediately knelt down to salute the empress when she saw the empress.

"Get up, how is Xi Wanyi?" the queen asked eagerly.

"The master is still in a coma, and the imperial doctor is administering the needle."

The queen's heart trembled, and she waved her hand to let Yunshang pass by, and walked into the main hall by herself.After entering, the queen didn't see the emperor, so the queen walked towards the inner hall. Aunt Hua raised the curtain with her own hands, and entered the inner hall, only to see the emperor standing with his hands behind his back, under the light, the shadows intertwined, and the heavy pressure hit him head-on. Come on, it's almost overwhelming.

"The concubine sees the emperor." The queen knelt down and saluted.

Xiao Qi turned around when he heard the voice, looked down at the Queen, with a blank expression on his face, "Queen, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The queen got up, and went back to the follow-up matters first. Seeing the emperor's expressionless face, she felt a little uncertain, and finally reported the imperial concubine's request to move to the palace. "The imperial concubine was also frightened. Before the matter is investigated clearly, the comings and goings of people may disturb Princess Yuzhen."

What the queen said is interesting, panic?Why is the concubine frightened?

Xiao Qi glanced at the queen, and then slowly said: "Since this is the case, let the noble concubine take Yuzhen to live in the back hall for the time being, and after the matter is clarified, move back to the front hall."

The empress was obviously stunned, and she glanced at the emperor, unable to figure out whether the emperor meant to annoy the imperial concubine, or to be considerate of the imperial concubine.Changle Palace has three front and rear entrances, and the apse is also very wide.It's just that the apse is a place to put some sundries, even though it's spacious, it's really inappropriate for a noble concubine to live in it.But if the emperor doesn't like the imperial concubine moving to the palace to be tired and living in the apse temporarily for a few days, that's justified.

"Yes." The queen couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking, so she agreed first, and then made plans later, "Your majesty, is sister Wanyi okay?"

"The empress has a heart. There are many things in the harem that the empress needs to take care of. You should go back first."

The emperor issued an order to expel the guests, and the empress naturally felt that her face was shamed, so she suppressed her anger and bowed to leave.She didn't know that it was the emperor who was venting his anger, she took a deep breath, the queen left the Yihexuan, and went straight back to Fenghuan Palace.

After the queen left, Xiao Qi went into the dormitory. The wound on Si Jin's head had already been bandaged, and there were still silver needles on her head.Seeing the emperor coming in, everyone became more and more nervous.

"How is Xi Wanyi?"

Lord Yuanzheng stepped forward, saluted and reported back, "If you go back to the emperor, the bleeding has been stopped for the time being, but the wound is slightly deeper and the blood loss is too much. I can't guarantee when I will wake up."

Xiao Qi pursed his lips tightly and said after a long time: "Xi Wanyi is safe, so you all will be well. If she is not well, you can all be buried with her!"

Everyone was shocked, and they all knelt down, "Weichen and others will try their best to treat them."

Xiao Qi ignored everyone, walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Si Jin who was still in a coma, her face was paler than paper.She has always been a lively and energetic person, and she was not used to this kind of her for a while, holding her hand, she felt her fingertips were cold, Xiao Qi tightly wrapped her fingertips in his palm.It wasn't until her fingertips were stained with his temperature that she relaxed a bit.

After examining the wound, the imperial doctor said that if Qi Ronghua hadn't pushed Si Jin, the palace lantern would have hit the back of her head straight, and the gods would be hard to save.Even so, Si Jin was hit by a corner of the palace lantern. Even though the octagonal palace lantern has been polished, the corner is not sharp, but it cannot withstand the heavy force that fell down.

Between life and death.

At that time, he was sitting on the high seat far away from her, watching the palace lantern fall down.

Too far away and too short arms for him to save her.

He can't remember exactly what he felt at that time, but what he does remember is that his heartbeat seems to have stopped.When he rushed over, he only saw a man lying on the ground with blood on his face, terrified as if he was about to grab something.He immediately stepped forward and hugged her in his arms, and called out the small words he had given her. She seemed to have found support, and fell into his arms.

The scene of her lying in a pool of blood was all over his mind. The blood on his pale face was like a blooming flower, and the breath was so faint that he could hardly feel it. At that moment, he seemed to hear the voice of his own heartbreaking.

"Master Xi Wanyi is probably going to have a high fever tonight, so you will go to the hospital immediately to get these herbs."

"Light up the stove to boil the medicine, and pour it into a bowl when it's done."

"I need to prepare some soft porridge..."

One after another voices sounded in the room, and people kept running back and forth with light steps.

The servants inside and outside the Yihexuan were all busy, Xiao Qi just sat there like Zhenhai magic needle, not moving.

Lord Yuanzheng took a deep breath, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I want to take the needle for Master Xi Wanyi."
