Phoenix Fight: The First Concubine

Chapter 147 The So-Called Conspiracy

Qi Yan's face was pale: "No, the concubine didn't do it on purpose. I was stung by a bee on my neck just now. I was frightened and wanted to throw it away, but I didn't notice that I bumped into sister Wu Lan. No matter how bold the concubine is, I dare not murder princess……"

Although she was stung on the neck, but even so, it wouldn't be enough to yell, right?
Can you die from a bee sting?
Murong Wei was furious, she felt uncomfortable before, now it's even more uncomfortable, and now she is even more anxious, seeing Qi Yan like that, she can't wait to strangle this bitch to death!

Murong Wei was so angry that her heart ached, she was going out for a walk, but someone plotted against her, was this Qi Yan hopelessly stupid or did she think that Murong Wei had nothing to do with her without evidence?

Unintentionally, who would believe it?
She had already felt that something was wrong, especially when the two doctors wanted to let her go back, they obviously noticed something.

At this moment, how could she not understand that this person deliberately murdered her?

Xiangtao said angrily: "You are sophistry! What can you do if you were stung by a bee? If you hadn't been supported just now, the princess would have had a miscarriage. Do you want to murder the princess? And you, you The two conspired together!"

Wu Lan turned pale with fright, and kowtowed again and again: "I don't dare, I really don't mean that!"

She didn't know how Qi Yan bumped into her, she really hated her, looking at Qi Yan, didn't she want to frame her?

Doctor Sun hurriedly said: "The concubine was shocked, someone should come and invite the doctor immediately!"

She hurriedly wanted to help Murong Wei back to Qingshu Palace, but Murong Wei also felt uncomfortable, so she was helped back immediately.

Doctor Liu stayed behind. At this time, Mother Zheng also got the news and rushed over. When she saw Wu Lan and Qi Yan, she sneered and said in anger: "Don't think that this matter can be forgotten. If the princess has something to do, you don't want to worry about it." I want to live! Let me see if the prince will let you go!"

Qi Yan cried: "The concubine is unintentional..."

Doctor Liu sneered and said, "Whether it's unintentional or not, we'll see in a while, Madam Zheng, please take them to Qingshu Hall and keep them separated for a while."

Mother Zheng understood what she meant, and immediately the maid went up and arrested Qi Yan and Wu Lan, and took them directly to Qingshu Hall.

Originally, Qi Yan and Wu Lan only brought their own maids, but at this time they were also extremely frightened, and they were arrested together.

When Xiao Mingrui got the news, knowing that Murong Wei's fetus was agitated because of the concubine's collision, he was shocked and angry, and he left for a while, and this kind of thing happened. That even a concubine.

Who gave them the courage to harm his princess!
When he returned to Qingshu Palace, he happened to meet Lu'er on this side, Xiao Mingrui hurriedly asked: "What's the matter with the princess, is the doctor here?"

Lu'er was sweating profusely, "Here I am. I just checked the princess's pulse and said it was fetal gas. Fortunately, I found it early. It would be bad if it took another night. Now Xiangtao has gone to decoct medicine." Yes, it will be much better after the princess drinks it."

Xiao Mingrui heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he was afraid, if Murong Wei had fallen to the ground at that time, then it is uncertain what would happen now.

In his palace, the concubine was actually plotted against, how can this matter be let go?
Xiao Mingrui entered the room with a sullen face, and the imperial physician explained Yuegu's precautions in the middle hall. Xiao Mingrui met and asked about the specific situation.

The imperial doctor dropped the meeting bag, and only said that the fetus was a little gasped due to fright, and he needed to rest and recuperate.

Yuegu's eyes were red, and she said angrily, "My lord, you want to make the decision for the princess."

"Don't worry, this lord will never let go of anyone with ghostly tricks." Xiao Mingchen said in a cold voice, the murderous look in that voice made the imperial physician next to him shiver, thinking that the affairs of this big mansion are always endless, and still Fortunately, the princess is a little trouble today, if it is a miscarriage, he really doubts that he will be killed by the prince.

Xiao Mingrui walked into the bedroom with heavy steps, walked around the screen, saw Murong Wei lying on the bed, walked over in two or three steps, and held her hand.

Murong Wei's complexion was as pale as paper, and a few silver needles were stuck in her head.

Doctor Sun next to her had just fed Murong Wei some stomach-warming and soothing soup, when she saw Xiao Mingrui coming in, she withdrew.

A silver needle was inserted into Murong Wei's head, and the discomfort in her abdomen subsided a little after the needle was inserted.

"Husband." Murong Wei's eyes turned red when she saw him, and she just shed tears.

Xiao Mingrui was happy before he saw his beautiful wife, but in a blink of an eye it was like a blooming flower was broken, his eyes were full of grievances, his heart ached so much, and his voice was a little hoarse when he held her up: "Don't be afraid, I will At this."

Murong Wei only felt wronged in her heart, why should she endure this?
It's abominable to prevent this and that for a good pregnancy!
"She did it on purpose, she wanted to harm me." Murong Wei became emotional again: "My child almost died..."

Xiao Mingrui hurriedly comforted her, fearing that her emotional agitation would affect the fetus, he said firmly, "Don't worry, I will never tolerate anyone who dares to harm my Wei'er or our child, this king wants her to die without a place to bury her." !"

Murong Wei hugged him and whimpered and started to cry, feeling uncomfortable and uncomfortable, she was shocked and afraid, angry and angry, with a little bit of resentment.

Although life is prosperous, troubles also follow.

If the two of them were ordinary people and there were no such messy things, she felt that she would have a lot more peace of mind, and no one would always worry about her child.

Being a mother is strong, she will never allow anyone to hurt her child!

Xiao Mingrui comforted her for a long time, until Xiang Tao boiled the medicine and came in, Xiao Mingrui personally fed her to drink the anti-fetal medicine, there were some things that promote sleep in the medicine, Murong Wei fell into a deep sleep not long after drinking it.

Xiao Mingrui tucked her in the quilt, with a gloomy face, and asked Xiangtao how she was at that time.

Xiangtao said again, now she is suspicious of Qi Yan, so she turned the target of suspicion to her, and specifically said that she still burns incense, and she suspects that there is something wrong with the fragrance.

After hearing this, Xiao Mingrui walked out the door in a deep voice, and Mother Zheng was waiting outside, "My lord, those two are being detained separately now. What do you think we should do?"

"The king will go to interrogate himself."

Doctor Sun said: "My lord, that Aunt Qi is not quite right. The slaves just sensed something was wrong before and wanted the concubine to come back first. I didn't expect her to be so bold as to commit murder."

Xiao Mingrui's eyes flashed: "You two doctors didn't see the problem in advance, why don't so many people surround the princess, and let the princess be knocked down?"

Everyone hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, Doctor Sun said in shame: "I didn't expect her to be so mad, I beg to be punished."

Xiao Mingrui said coldly: "Everyone will be punished! If you don't do enough to protect the princess, fortunately, the princess is fine. If something happens to the princess, you all don't want to live well today! This king warns you, if you dare to do things without dedication, don't blame me for being ruthless! "

Everyone was ashamed, and silently agreed to the punishment. Not only would they be fined, but they would also be hit with five boards. This is still light.

Among them, only the maidservant who protected Murong Wei was not punished, and Xiao Mingrui showed mercy.

If it weren't for the fact that they were used by Murong Wei, how could they be tolerated!

Leaving aside these things for now, Xiao Mingrui just wants to find out if those two women did something.

Soon, he appeared in the room where Qi Yan was temporarily under house arrest.

The two doctors had already followed, and Madam Zheng also came to see what was going on.

Qi Yan was restless in the room, from time to time he touched the lump on his neck irritably, where he was stung by a bee.

She walked back and forth in the room, and when she saw Xiao Mingrui appearing with a sullen face, she stopped immediately.

Xiao Mingrui, if he can get his approval, then there is still room for change.

So when he saw Xiao Mingrui appearing, Qi Yan immediately shouted: "My lord, this concubine has been wronged!"

He said with tears in his eyes and a look of grievance on his face.

Xiao Mingrui glanced at her coldly, ignored her, and found an official hat chair to sit on.

"Tell me..." Xiao Mingrui's expression was cold, and his tone didn't fluctuate much, but anyone could hear the determination in his tone: "Do you have the intention to murder the princess? I advise you to tell the truth, if not , Don’t blame others for suffering later.”

"The concubine has absolutely no intention of harming the concubine, it was really just carelessness, the concubine didn't know that it would cause such a big thing, and besides such an obvious murder, the concubine is not stupid, isn't this giving someone a handle? "

Qi Yan was eloquent, and what she said seemed to make sense.

As long as you are not stupid, you shouldn't do this in front of so many people.

The two doctors who stood behind Xiao Mingrui looked at each other, Doctor Sun already knew that the prince was very angry and would inevitably punish them, how dare she not work hard now, hoping to reduce the punishment.

She lowered her head and whispered a few words to Xiao Mingrui, and Xiao Mingrui agreed.

Doctor Sun and Doctor Liu stepped forward and said, "I've offended you."

After all, Doctor Sun reached out and grabbed Qi Yan's hand, took off the ruby ​​ring from her hand, and put it in the handkerchief.

On the other side, Doctor Liu also took off the sachet that Qi Yan was wearing.

The two cooperated tacitly and moved very quickly, Qi Yan didn't react in the blink of an eye.

When she realized that the two of them had taken her things, she suddenly changed color.

"What are you doing, why are you taking my things?"

"Don't you know that, Auntie?" Doctor Sun sneered.

Qi Yan's heart trembled, he clenched his fists reluctantly, and luckily said: "I want to see what you can find out, I am innocent, my lord, I have absolutely no intention of harming my concubine."

Xiao Mingrui said coldly: "Since you refuse to tell the truth, don't blame me for being cruel later on!"

Doctor Sun carefully inspected the ruby ​​ring, smelled it, and threw the ring into the cup with clear water. Sure enough, the water suddenly changed color, slightly bright red.The color of the gemstone ring is much duller, not as bright as before.

"It's interesting." Madam Zheng stepped forward to check, and she said angrily, "It was smeared with medicine, but I don't know. Are you trying to put my princess to death?"

"It's not a medicine that hurts people, it's just to make the gem look good. I don't mean to hurt anyone at all!"

Qi Yan shouted.

Xiao Mingrui held back his anger and asked, "Have you checked it out?"

Doctor Sun shook her head: "My lord, there is indeed nothing wrong with the medicine applied on the ruby ​​ring."

"Yes, there is nothing wrong with the sachet."

Qi Yan was heaving a sigh of relief and wanted to complain, but Doctor Sun said again: "It's just that the smells of these two things are mixed together, but the breath is different. Smell it for a long time, it will make the uterus smoother, more peristalsis, easy to cause tire slippage."

"Indeed."

Qi Yan was taken aback, "How can you be sure, this is a lie you fabricated!"

"If this is not the case, the princess was already feeling unwell before going back. I have already found out that something is wrong with you, so I let the princess go back in advance. If the princess just goes back like this, it will only be a temporary discomfort, just drink some anti-fetal medicine. You But you refused to let go of this opportunity and took the risk. You use the medicine first, and then bump into the person. Otherwise, if it is simply being bumped by someone, the princess will never be so angry."

Qi Yan's complexion suddenly changed, she couldn't imagine how the two of them were aware of it.

With such a secret matter, could it be that the people around the princess are all masters?
"You guys are framed without any evidence!"

Doctor Sun said: "You can ask the imperial physician to confront."

Speaking of which, there is no need for any review, and Xiao Mingrui is too lazy to listen to Qi Yan's distinction.

He shut Qi Yan up with just one sentence: "Stop deceiving yourself and others."

Qi Yan was speechless for a moment, she just looked at the two doctors with a cold face, resentment flashed in her eyes.

By this time, the matter had already been revealed, and she had no way to hide it.

At this moment, she couldn't help feeling a little regretful, if what happened today, if she deliberately bumped into someone, Murong Wei would have no excuses!

Even if she suspected it at the time, so what, she only needs to change things when she goes back, and it will be difficult to find any evidence.

It's just that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. I didn't expect Murong Wei to be so vigilant at the time. If she stayed a little longer, she would even go back. If she didn't pay attention, it would inevitably lead to fetal gas and miscarriage the next day.

She was afraid of accidents, so she deliberately provoke the bees, and she did it by being stung by the bees.

Now it seems that it is superfluous!

Even regretting it at this moment is useless!

Therefore, it is a common practice of this generation to say that success is not enough and failure is more than failure.

Xiao Mingrui said coldly: "Tell me, why did you do this, and where did you get these things?"

Qi Yan was silent, just kept a straight face and said nothing.

Xiao Mingrui laughed angrily: "Don't tell me?"

He recruited Su De to come in, "lock her up for me, no matter what method you use, you must pry her mouth open!"

Su De glanced at Qi Yan with a questioning gaze.

Xiao Mingrui looked cold and said, "Don't worry about her life!"

That is to use punishment.

Qi Yan exposed the matter, but she was stubborn and refused to speak, so she was directly pulled away by Xiao Mingrui.

"Go and arrest Qi Yan's maid eunuch, interrogate her thoroughly, and go to her residence to check, but if there is anything wrong, it will be seized!"

With Xiao Mingrui's words, I don't know how many people are going to be unlucky.

Up to now, I don't want to make any gesture of kindness anymore, Murong Wei was almost plotted by someone, this made Xiao Mingrui furious, the people who went to search Qi Yan's residence turned it upside down, except for finding some money , but found nothing special.

This is also very surprising.

Even Wu Lan's place was searched, but of course nothing was found.

The entire palace trembled under Xiao Mingrui's thunderous anger.

The backyard of the palace was even more earth-shattering, and everyone avoided it for fear that it would be too late. No one dared to get involved in it at this time.

And this matter is not so secret, after all, it was spread out by the maids and eunuchs present, and at night, many people knew that the princess was almost caused by Qi Yan to have a miscarriage, the prince was furious, and now he is conducting a thorough investigation this matter.

Xiao Mingrui questioned Wu Lan again, and finally confirmed that she did not know about this matter, but Xiao Mingrui now hates the house and hates her, and he does not pretend to speak to her, because she has run afoul of Murong Wei's matter, and refuses to let go, very angry, Sending her directly to the palace's family temple to clean up is tantamount to letting Wu Lan be a layman at home in a disguised form.

The family temple of the palace was originally set up by Concubine Zhu in the sacrificial hall, but now asking Wu Lan to go to a dead place to clean up is like putting him in limbo, and it will be difficult to think about it.

After an hour, Su De went back and reported to Xiao Mingrui the results of his torture.

"At first, she refused to say it, but after torture, she said it was something given to her by someone else."

"Who gave it to her?"

He still can't see who Qi Yan is, with her personality, let alone come up with such an idea, even if she is asked, she will not know how to harm others.

Even a good thing can be ruined by her.

Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise things would be unimaginable.

"Yes..." Su De didn't know whether to speak or not.

Xiao Mingrui glanced at him: "Who is it, just tell me."

"She said that Nanny Ling had someone give her the medicine."

"Nurse Ling!?" Xiao Mingrui was taken aback, and then he was shocked and angry, so angry that he dropped the cloisonné teacup in his palm.

How could he not be angry, Nanny Ling, who he had always respected since he was a child, actually collaborated with someone to kill his wife, this incident made Xiao Mingrui furious, and even felt that the anger in his heart was rising.

"Yes, she said that Nanny Ling still has some contacts in the mansion. The old slave has already sent someone to arrest the person who gave her something. It's just that the matter has escalated, and I don't know if it's to startle the snake."

Xiao Mingrui was so angry that he walked back and forth in the house. Although he had been estranged from Nanny Ling for the past two years, Xiao Mingrui did not treat them badly. He even let them live in a house outside and enjoy their rich life. Raised a white-eyed wolf!

Xiao Mingrui felt that he had been deceived and betrayed, which was a very bad feeling.

"Check, everyone involved in this matter must be investigated thoroughly, and no one will be tolerated!"

"Yes, servant girl, I'm going to investigate someone to find out."

Seeing Xiao Mingrui furious, Su De also knew that the matter was serious, and in this situation, he must not be provoked anymore.

Xiao Mingrui made a lot of calculations in his mind, this time he will never let it go, and even more so, he wants to make an example to everyone, to make an example to others, to see who dares to change his mind again, what awaits him is definitely a violent storm.

He will never allow anyone to hurt Wei'er!
After this storm, Xiao Mingrui also stepped up his vigilance, he didn't want this kind of thing to happen again.

The entire palace is also full of fear and panic.

Murong Wei was still in a deep sleep, and had no idea how many things outside had changed because of her.

Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Xiao Mingrui felt much more at ease. He didn't close his eyes that night, just hugged her, and felt inexplicable fear for some reason, for fear that she would suddenly disappear or be hurt.

It wasn't until almost dawn that he vaguely fell asleep for a while.

When Murong Weilue woke up, she woke up suddenly, subconsciously touched her stomach, but felt nothing unusual in her body, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

This startled, immobile movement woke Xiao Mingrui up.

"Wei'er." He quickly got up to look at her, and comforted her: "It's okay, what's wrong with you?"

Murong Wei shook her head, "I don't feel anything unusual."

Xiao Mingrui said softly: "The imperial doctor told you to rest well, these days, relax and stay in the room quietly, don't run out."

Murong Wei agreed, thinking of what happened yesterday, she felt a little heartbroken again, so she asked what happened yesterday.

Xiao Mingrui was afraid that she would get angry, so he tried his best to speak in a calm tone. After hearing this, Murong Wei felt relieved and became depressed instead.

"Where did I feel sorry for her?" Murong Wei said a little angrily: "Since I married you, I have never treated them badly. In the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, I have never lost their clothes and jewelry. Have I ever made them sad?" ?”

Murong Wei really felt angry in her heart, this person is just a bitch, if she treats her well, she thinks you are easy to bully.

She sneered in her heart, it seemed that she let them live so well that she forgot who she was and dared to murder her.

If they don't make an example and let them know how powerful she is, Murong Wei, they will forget who she is!
Murong Wei rubbed her stomach, she knew that since she became pregnant, she would inevitably have conflicts with some people, and there would always be people who hoped that she would not be able to have children.

She never expects everyone to like her, this is complete nonsense.

When everyone gets together, there will naturally be conflicts. It is just a man's imagination to expect that women will have three wives and four concubines together without conflicts.

Even the ancients knew that pampering concubines and destroying wives is an act of impeachment. There is a difference between wives and concubines. In this backyard, the competition for the favor of men, the competition for children, and the competition for power have never stopped.

Murong Wei has already arranged very closely, but she never expected to be plotted against by someone. Fortunately, she is very vigilant, once she realizes that something is wrong, she immediately backs down. It must be difficult to detect, and it will not move the tire gas.

What made Murong Wei even more angry was that Nanny Ling, who hadn't shown up for a long time, actually played a role in it.

It seems that beating a snake will not kill you, but you will suffer from it. Some people are afraid of power but not moral. If you expect them to obey you, you can only be tough. As for wanting to feel them in a gentle way, that is completely naive fantasy.

"Qi Yan deserves to die." Xiao Mingrui's eyes were murderous: "She will not appear in front of you in the future."

Murong Wei was stunned for a moment, only then did she realize that he actually wanted Qi Yan to disappear.

As for how to disappear, whether to lock it up or what, Murong Wei didn't want to ask.

Since this person will no longer appear in front of her in the future, that's fine, lest she always see people she doesn't want to see in the future.

"As for Nanny Ling..." Xiao Mingrui sighed: "I used to know that she was my nanny and took good care of me in the palace, but I didn't expect that she would be so proud of being favored by her, that she even surpassed the Lord and harbored resentment. I'll take care of things, Wei'er..."

He said seriously: "I won't let anyone hurt you, not Nanny Ling, nor father, queen, mother and concubine."

Murong Wei is the most difficult to get involved with Ling Nanny's matter, and everyone can only care about the relationship between Xiao Mingrui and Ling Nanny.

Now that Xiao Mingrui has said that he has to deal with it himself, it's not easy for her to ask.

But if you think that Murong Wei is a vegetarian, it's a joke to swallow her anger after suffering such a big loss!

She only cares about what Xiao Mingrui does, and if it doesn't suit her, she doesn't mind making the Ling family worse again.

"Did I embarrass my husband?" She sighed, drooping her eyelashes, and said quietly.

Xiao Mingrui comforted: "No, I am also very annoyed, not to mention they want to murder my child, what a crime it is to murder the emperor's heir, I have no reason to tolerate her! I will never tolerate it!"

Murong Wei sighed: "Nurse Ling is old, maybe she misunderstood me."

The last possibility, it seems, may be that the Ling family is completely unlucky, and Nanny Ling is lonely, and it is impossible to enjoy the delicious food in the luxury house. This may be Xiao Mingrui's nostalgia for the old feelings.

"I can't blame you. At the beginning they wanted to plot against you, right? Except for Nanny Ling, I don't care about the members of the Ling family. It's just that Nanny Ling's behavior is really chilling. What kind of feelings do you have in the old days?" , and now there is only a little left.”

He, Xiao Mingrui, is not a saint either, he just embezzles money and things, but hurts the people he cares about, such as nanny, he can't tolerate it.

"That being the case, everything is up to the husband." Murong Wei was a little tired: "I want to rest now."
