Chapter 149 The Reversal Drama (4)

The emperor pointed to the palace servants kneeling on the ground: "They have confessed that the rumors about the harem this time originated from Xianfu Palace, and Concubine An has always been at odds with Mrs. Berry. The rumors are flying all over the sky this time, and it is very likely that Concubine An did it. The son has no choice but to ground Concubine An first, and ask the mother not to intercede for her."

The imperial concubine came prepared and said calmly: "The Ai family did not intend to intercede for Concubine An, she was not wrong, why did the Ai family intercede for her?"

The queen said: "Mother, this concubine knows that you love sister An, but with so many witnesses, An cannot get away with it."

The imperial concubine snorted coldly: "Witnesses? Witnesses may have been deliberately bought. How can their testimony be counted?"

Sun Bin couldn't help being startled, and hurriedly said: "Empress Dowager, these people are usually the ones who love to gossip. Only they know where the source of the rumors first came from. They have already admitted that the rumors came from Xianfu Palace. Is there a fake?"

The imperial concubine scolded angrily: "Aijia and the emperor and empress, how can you, an eunuch, have room to intervene?"

Her voice was so cold and gloomy that Sun Bin was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak again.

The imperial concubine said: "Emperor, the Ai family came here today not only for the rumors, but also to clear up the grievance of Concubine An for drugging the eldest princess."

The queen's face paled slightly: "Mother, last year the eldest princess fell ill, didn't Concubine An deliberately give the eldest princess fever medicine in order to win favor? How can there be any wrongdoing?"

The imperial concubine's eyes were sharp and cold, as if she wanted to see through the queen: "Is it wronged? There is a reason for mourning the family. What is the queen in such a hurry for?"

The queen said: "As the queen, the concubine has the responsibility to manage the harem, so naturally she has to ask about this matter."

The imperial concubine sneered and said, "The queen is indeed virtuous, but whether it is true virtuous or fake virtuous is open to discussion."

She said this sharply, directly questioning the queen's character.

The queen's face turned serious, and she immediately knelt down and said: "Mother, as a queen, my mother respects the world, how can you call this concubine's love?"

The imperial concubine said: "Since Ai's family dares to say these words, there is a reason for Ai's family to do something wrong, but to take the blame on Ai's niece is simply abominable!"

The empress turned pale with shock, and said in a trembling voice: "Mother, how could this concubine have done anything wrong? Your words... are really unacceptable to this concubine."

The imperial concubine paused, and suddenly she was very solemn: "I can't accept it, right? Then Aijia should just make it clear to you, Nanny Fang, and tell you what you have heard in front of the emperor and everyone. Speak well."

Mother Fang replied in a deep voice, "Yes!"

She looked at the crowd, and said word by word, without haste, "The maidservant, according to the order of the emperor dowager, went to investigate last year that Concubine An gave fever medicine to the eldest princess to compete for favor, and she testified against Concubine An's nanny Li Xiaocui Already killed by the emperor, there is no evidence to be found from her interrogation, the servants can only investigate her family."

"It doesn't matter if you don't check it. It turns out that Li Xiaocui's husband is the housekeeper of the empress's mother's family. What surprised the slaves even more is that after Li Xiaocui died, her husband actually made a fortune. Not only did he redeem the whole family After finishing his life, he bought hundreds of acres of fertile land in the suburbs of the capital, and the family changed from slaves to rent-collecting landlords."

"And the source of this money comes from the Min family, the Queen Mother's mother clan. I didn't expect that the head of the country is so generous that he rewarded a servant with so much money."
