Chapter 401 The Praying Mantis Catch the Cicada (4)
"You!" Han Jin turned pale with anger, and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I get it. I have to thank you!"

"Slaves don't dare." Yin Die'er said blissfully.

Han Jin looked at Yindie'er coldly, and slowly raised his finger to the door: "Go out."

"Yes." Yindie'er blessed her body again, bowed her head and retreated.

That night, Han Qian died tragically without eating because the glutinous rice dumpling scratched his own fur.

Wu Miao found a lot of contraband in the eldest princess's mansion, among them was the insane poison of the Western Regions: Gu Xiang.When the things were delivered to the Zichen Palace, His Majesty the Emperor was furious, and immediately ordered Princess Jiaying to be imprisoned in the Clan Mansion pending trial.

After Han Jin heard the news, he became even more uneasy, and asked Han Qian to resign that night: "Auntie, Jin'er has failed to take good care of Auntie in the past few days since she entered the palace, and instead caused her a lot of trouble. Feeling sorry, I thought, I might as well go back, maybe it can be quieter around my aunt."

"Forget it." Han Qian lazily leaned on the phoenix couch, looked at Han Jin's pale face, and sighed, "You have always been in trouble, and I don't have more energy to take care of you now. Then You came because you were thinking that you would have no one to take care of you at home, but now it seems that I have too much time to take care of myself, and I really don't have the energy to take care of you. You go back now, let us take care of each other."

"Thank you, aunt. Please rest in peace. Jin'er will leave." Han Jinfu withdrew.

Han Qian sighed softly, turned around and lay down on the phoenix couch, looked down at her lower abdomen, and said leisurely: "The child of the royal family has to go through so many disasters and dangers before he is born... What a pity!"

"Your Majesty, don't think too much, go to bed early." Pingguoer beside her advised softly.

"Why haven't you gone back yet?" Han Qian looked at Pingguo'er, smiled lightly and said, "It's enough to have them serving here. You should go back earlier."

"Such a big incident happened today, and the maidservant can't sleep even when she goes back. It's better to stay with the empress for more peace of mind." Pingguoer sighed softly.

Now because of his military exploits, Qianye was named a heroic general, and he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the imperial army. It was a blessing in disguise. He was envied and jealous by Qianxun and others, and secretly slaughtered many banquets.But his marriage with Apple has never been done. According to Apple's intention, it will be discussed after she has kept mourning for the Eldest Princess for one year.However, Han Qian bought Ping'er a house outside, and promised her that Ping'er would not have to stay on duty at Fengzhang Hall for half a month, and could go out of the palace to live in her own house, and prepare for next year's wedding by the way.

"In that case, sit there and let's talk." Han Qian pointed to the embroidered stool in front of the bed.

"Yes." Apple leaned forward and sat down on the embroidered stool.

Han Qian looked up at the Cordyceps embroidery on the top of the tent, and asked after a while, "Do you think Jiaying really made the poison on the silver bell on the cuff?"

Pingguo was taken aback for a moment, and then asked back: "Does the empress think there is someone else?"

"If it was her poison, why didn't Sun Defu detect it?" Han Qian asked
"Well, this servant has asked Sun Defu, and he is still kneeling outside waiting for his mother to deal with him. He said that he was negligent, and he didn't expect that there would be poison on the silver bell—but, my mother's lesson: we all tested poison. Silverware, since the poison of Gu Xiang has no effect on the silver bell, it's normal that our things can't be tested."

"That's true." Han Qian nodded.

"Fortunately, we are cautious enough. We don't use anything brought in from outside. All food and clothing are handled by trustworthy people. Your Majesty, don't panic too much. With His Majesty protecting you, you should rest in peace and take care of yourself." Apple The son persuaded again.

Han Qian sneered indifferently: "Pingguo, you can only talk about it. You see, you are too scared to go back to sleep tonight. How can I ask Bengong to raise the baby with peace of mind?"

"Your servant just needs to be more careful. If your servant is more careful, your empress can feel at ease." Pingguoer said with a smile.

"Pingguo, do you think this palace is useless, and I need you to protect me all the time? My mother used to protect me at home, but now in the palace, it's the emperor's brother who protects me. The emperor's brother is not around When it was time, you guys were protecting me again..."

"Your Majesty, don't think about it too much. The slaves and servants serve Your Majesty and protect your Majesty's safety. It is their duty and their duty."

"However, I have been in the palace for a year, and my mother is gone. The emperor's brother is busy with state affairs all day long and has no time to take care of it. I have to support myself." Han Qian sighed leisurely. .

Pingguo quickly responded: "Your Majesty is the master of this harem, what you want to do, the servants will obey your Majesty's orders."

Han Jin turned around and looked at Pingguoer, with a cold light shining in her big beautiful eyes, like a star in the cold night, faint but cold to the bone: "The people who have touched the cuff and silver bell are not only Jiaying but also Yindie. Son, Jin'er is also inseparable from this matter. You ask someone to watch their master and servant quietly, and if they make any changes, return to the palace immediately."

"Your servant understands." Apple replied softly.

Han Qian pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice: "That Yindie'er is the daughter of Jun'er's nanny. At that time, Jun'er's nanny was kicked out of the house by her sister-in-law, and then entered the Shao's house... After several twists and turns, she returned to Daozhong. In Yihou Mansion, the mother and eldest brother just kept her because they didn't want to make Jun'er and Jin'er brothers and sisters feel unhappy. This Yindie'er's mind is unusual. Jin'er seems to have obeyed her in the past two years. It's really worrying, you find a reliable person to check her well."

Pingguoer replied softly: "Okay, this servant will leave this matter to Qianye, his people are still reliable in handling things."

"Also, my palace has always doubted that the secret concubine and Jiaying have no direct conflict of interest with this palace. If it is said that in the early years, they targeted me because of King Shou's fight for the throne with the emperor's brother, but in recent years, the emperor After my brother ascended the throne, the government gradually stabilized, King Shou was imprisoned, and King Xiang and King Qing didn't have any chance of coming back, so why are their mother and daughter targeting me everywhere?"

"Princess Jiaying has been at odds with her mother since she was a child, and now that she is married, it is said that she is not happy. So there is some resentment in her heart." Pingguo guessed.

"Who does she hate? I hate this palace? Or the emperor's brother?" Han Qian shook his head in doubt, and murmured, "This palace never hindered them. It was just feeding the poison to the mistresses, but they didn't kill them after all, and let Jiaying get married into Shao's mansion as she wished. It was their mother and daughter who poisoned the first queen first, no matter what, there was such a result It is also the kindness of the emperor's brother. Not only are they ungrateful, and they spend the rest of their lives in peace and stability, but they come out again and again to make trouble... This really shouldn't be."
