The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 160
"Whose is the kite string?" Li Longji, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said in a deep voice.

"It's Qu Feng of Concubine Li and Qing Luan of Shangguan Jieyu. The kite strings of the two queens are mixed together, and the other is crossed with a strange silk thread!" Gao Lishi explained while pulling the string Bong and Li Longji.

Li Longji took it in his hand and took a closer look. This thread is obviously different from the thread used to fly kites in the past. Gao Jieyu took a closer look, clapped his hands and said, "Isn't this the thread on Wu Zhaoyi's dragon?"

Chang Xi was startled and hurriedly said: "The concubine's helm has always been in His Majesty's hands!"

"But it's obviously the silk thread from Wu Zhaoyi's kite. He even said it was made of cicada silk mixed with ordinary silk thread. It's definitely not wrong!" Gao Jieyu's crisp voice came to everyone's ears, and the queen turned her head to look, He nodded and said, "Indeed!"

"Wu Zhaoyi! What else do you have to say! Give me back my child!" Liu Meiren believed that the prince in her belly was the victim of Chang Xi, and at this moment, if she was insane, she wanted to fight desperately with him.

Chang Xi was afraid that her long nails would catch her face, so she hurriedly took two steps back, and said in a high voice, "Even if it's the kite string of my concubine, the crime of tripping Meiren Liu can't be blamed on my concubine!"

Shangguan Jieyu was involved in such a major event just after entering the palace, she was so frightened that her face paled, she knelt on the ground and said repeatedly: "The concubine never intentionally hurt the emperor's heir in Liu Meiren's belly, the kite and the concubine Li are mixed together. It was an accident, please Your Majesty learn from it!"

Concubine Li said: "It's normal for Ben Gong and Shangguan Jieyu's kite to be entangled together, but Wu Zhaoyi's kite has no broken strings, what is the extra cicada silk for?"

Chang Xi was taken aback for a moment. It was really difficult to explain this matter, so she took the truth, "I don't know why there is an extra thread, but the concubine doesn't know about Liu Meiren's pregnancy!"

Yu Zhaorong said: "Whether the palace servants around Sister Liu are the quickest to tell others about their merits, that's also true, no one can blame Sister Chang Xi!"

One sentence failed to dispel Chang Xi's suspicion, but instead reminded Li Longji.

Li Longji ordered Gao Lishi to scrutinize the palace servants of Cuiwuju to see if anyone had told about Liu Meiren's pregnancy.After a while, Gao Lishi replied: "It is true that several maids said that they occasionally mentioned this matter when they were picking flowers in Yifang Garden, but there was no one around at that time, and one of the maids said that she saw Wen Xin in a daze while picking flowers. Hua'er from the hospital, but it's not real!"

Li Longji looked up at Chang Xi, and said, "Xuanna palace maid comes in!"

Hua'er and the rest of the servants of Wenxin Academy had just been rewarded for the matter of the giant dragon, and they were happy, so they were not surprised to be summoned suddenly. The door saw a group of concubines looking at her with unfriendly expressions, already panicked, and after a few questions from Concubine Li, she fell to her knees in fright and cried: "I picked flowers for Lady Zhaoyi in Yifangyuan that day, Indeed, I heard them talk about Liu Meiren's conceived dragon fetus by some unknown method, and this servant told Mistress Zhaoyi as an interesting story, but I really didn't say anything, please spare this servant's life!"

"After you told Wu Zhaoyi, did she say anything!" Li Longji asked in a deep voice.

Chang Xi was dripping with cold sweat, everything today is indisputable!Although I knew that Liu Meiren was pregnant and wanted her not to give birth to this child, but this matter was definitely not her doing, so I stopped Hua'er immediately and said neither humble nor overbearing: "The concubine told her not to go outside and talk nonsense! "

"Why!" Li Longji said coldly.

Chang Xi looked at Li Longji's star-like eyes, and said: "The concubine is afraid of being heard by interested people and causing some trouble, so Hua'er was silenced!"

"Aren't you the kind person!" Concubine Li sneered, "Your Majesty, the matter is already clear. Wu Zhaoyi has nothing to say this time!"

Chang Xi shook his head sadly, "It wasn't the concubine who did it, the concubine really has nothing to say!"

Li Longji got up abruptly, and looked down at Chang Xi who was kneeling at his feet. With such a cold gaze, Xiao Yu who was standing at the door unconsciously took a step forward.

"What are you going to do?" Yuzhen was surprised by the behavior of her husband beside her, and asked lightly.

Xiao Yu lowered his head, "I don't want to watch the battle between chickens and insects in this palace, let's go back home!"

"Okay!" Yuzhen saw that Xiao Yu's face was not right, and did not care about greeting Li Longji, and the two quietly left Cuiwuju.

"It's not the concubine's doing it!" Chang Xi emphasized again, looking up at Li Longji's eyes.

Li Longji still did not speak.

With tears in Chang Xi's starry eyes, he said faintly: "Some people say that they will always trust their concubines and regard them as his women!"

Li Longji was taken aback, this was his promise to Li Ye, that Li Ye would treat Chang Xi as his woman for the rest of his life!

"There is no real evidence for this investigation! All the lovers are gone!" Li Longji uttered a sentence slowly.

When Liu Meiren heard what Li Longji said, she cried even louder.Wei'er hid behind her sister Mengyao and said softly, "Look, sister, Your Majesty loves Wu Zhaoyi very much!"

"Hush! Be quiet!" Shangguan Jieyu interrupted her sister.

Concubine Li said angrily: "Your Majesty, how can you protect her like this!"

The queen said in a deep voice: "Concubine Li, even Your Majesty said that the investigation has no evidence! Do you still want to refuse to forgive? It's just a silk thread, how can Wu Zhaoyi be convicted by this!"

"One silk thread really can't fix Wu Zhaoyi's crime of framing the emperor's heir in Liu Meiren's belly, but Zhaoyi's crime of deceiving the emperor, is that enough?" Feng Lu coughed lightly, reminding everyone.

Chang Xi lied to Li Longji that he didn't know about Liu Meiren's pregnancy, which is also a serious crime.

After hearing this, Li Longji said slowly, "It's a good time to rest these few months!"

Chang Xi was taken aback, not knowing what punishment this was, Li Longji leaned over, "It's the second time! Don't wear down my trust in you again and again, it's only three things!"

"Order the imperial doctor to take good care of Liu Meiren, get up and drive to Qinzheng Palace!" Li Longji threw down a sentence and walked out.

Seeing that the important matter was over, all the concubines dispersed one after another. Xiao Shi stayed at the end and glanced at Chang Xi, who was walking at the end, and smiled slightly.

Seeing that she was friendly, Chang Xi also smiled.

After the Preserved Flowers Festival broke up unhappy, the three newly promoted beauties from the Shang Palace Bureau were placed in Xiaoxiang Garden and Jingxin Garden of Xingqing Palace respectively. All are favored according to the rules!Among the three, Mengyao, the daughter-in-law of Shangguan's family who belongs to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is the most favored. Li Longji often goes to her bedroom to listen to her play the guqin.

Liu Meiren has been depressed a lot since she lost her child, and she hides in the bedroom all day long.

After Xiao was named a beauty, she was favored only once, and then recuperated in the bedroom due to illness, staying at home for a long time.And Wei'er is the concubine daughter of the Shangguan family, and she is only a talented person, so she obeys her sister's orders in everything, and outsiders look at her and get a little favor.

In the past half a month, Li Longji didn't even step into Chang Xi's Wenxin Courtyard. Only then did Chang Xi understand what he meant by letting him rest for a month.If this was the past, she would definitely not be anxious, but would stay in the dormitory to recuperate with peace of mind, but now Chang Xi's state of mind is no longer what it used to be. She needs to win the absolute trust of Li Longji to avenge those wronged people, so she is in the dormitory for a while. Find out how to regain favor.

It was early summer, and the family members who were elected by the people outside the palace had been in the palace for many days. They were all studying etiquette and law in the Yeting Bureau, preparing for the general election in the near future. I heard a few maids and servants whispering about it. There was a woman who was very unique. Zhi Zi was even more glamorous and aloof, with no dust in his eyes, Chang Xi was curious and wanted to go and see, but he still held back his thoughts and rested in the dormitory with peace of mind.

On this day, the general election had come, and the place was chosen in the Furong Garden that Chang Xi was familiar with. Early in the morning, Chang Xi dressed up, helped Meier's hand into the carriage, and the wheels rolled towards the Furong Garden outside the palace.

I think the first time I came to Furong Garden was the time when I used Yong Peony to help the empress defeat Concubine Li. At that time, I and Xiao Yu were in a deep relationship.

Chang Xi raised the curtains of the carriages and horses with emotion, and peeked outside, and there was someone flying a kite on the flat ground in the distance.

Sitting in the car, Meier saw the kite in the distance, brought a cup of almond condensed honey and Chang Xi, and said angrily: "I wanted to take the opportunity of the last time to preserve the flowers to win the favor, but I didn't expect to be tricked by them." , fortunately you are fine!"

Chang Xi smiled faintly, "It's nothing! If the women in this palace's battle of wits were so simple, there wouldn't be a single success! This time it's quite rewarding!"

"What harvest? You mean the child in Liu Meiren's belly?" Mei'er was a little puzzled.

Chang Xi said: "The harvest is that I know that besides us and the queen, there is another potential force in Xingqing Palace!"

"Potential forces!" Mei'er almost dropped the cup in her hand to the ground in shock.

Chang Xi looked at the hazy glow outside the window, and said slowly: "Who do you think Liu Meiren's miscarriage was? It’s still such an incomplete scheme that gives me a chance to escape!”

"That's right! What happened last time is really not enough evidence to frame you!" Mei'er said thoughtfully.

Chang Xi said: "If it was the queen, how could she point the finger at me? You must know that her thorn in the side is Concubine Li, and she still points at me to fight for her!"

Mei'er doubted: "So, there is really another force in this palace making troubles in the dark!"

Chang Xi slowly closed her eyes, "Who did His Majesty's two assassinations? Was it really Wang Meiren? If she really wanted to assassinate His Majesty, how many chances did she have? Why didn't she do it before! Why did Zhong Meiren, who died back then, shouted in prison? "I misunderstood you", who did she misunderstand?! The queen still has her! Why did Prince Ying get poisoned on Qixi Festival last year, and Liu Meiren miscarried this year, all of this is unclear!"

"It's really scary! Although there are many people in the Xingqing Palace, there are so many high-ranking concubines, except for Gao Jieyu, each of whom has their own forces, how could there be a third undercurrent?" Meier wrinkled Daimei was almost connected to one place.

Chang Xi said: "Superficial subordinates may not mean sincere surrender, I'm afraid there may be other plans! But it doesn't matter, we can slowly find her out!"

"Well, I will also pay more attention to Eunuch Zhao and the others... Oops!" Mei'er didn't say anything, but the carriage that stopped suddenly made her stagger and nearly kneel on the ground.

"What's the matter!" Chang Xi shouted out.
