Chapter 1006 Knowing
Seeing the Empress Dowager frowning, Emperor Chu knew that she was impatient, and quickly pulled Concubine Jing behind him.

"Jing'er is just a child at heart, why should the empress be so hard on her?"

The Queen Mother almost laughed angrily.

Child nature?
Whose child is so big?
"I'm afraid that only the emperor thinks that Concubine Jing is a child?" The queen mother couldn't help but choke the emperor, "The Ai family is old, but the eyes are not blind! Whether it is an adult or a child, the Ai family can still tell the difference!"

As soon as the emperor choked, he was just making an analogy, and the empress dowager went online, making people overwhelmed.

"Concubine Jing, let me ask you, do you know about alchemy?" The queen mother looked at the emperor like this, and didn't bother to argue with him, and looked directly at Concubine Jing, who was leaning on her side.

Concubine Jing pursed her lips, and bowed softly: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, this concubine only found out about alchemy today, and this concubine was also very frightened. I didn't expect such a thing to happen, but my mother has always been gentle and virtuous. , there must be some misunderstanding, the empress dowager must never listen to what a maid says..."

When it came to the emotion, her eyes were foggy, but she tried not to cry, showing a strong and unyielding gesture.

"Queen, what Jing'er said is correct, how can you wrong Jing'er just by listening to a servant girl?" Chu Huang hurriedly agreed.

"Wronged?" The queen mother sneered, "Didn't you just listen to Concubine Jing's speech? Now I'm here to complain about being wronged?"

"This..." Chu Huang smiled coyly, can Jing'er be the same as a maid?

Of course, he didn't dare to say this.

"The Ai family is not as obedient as the emperor. Go, call Mrs. Lin to the palace! Let them face to face!" The queen mother glanced sideways at Madam Dong.

When Concubine Jing heard the confrontation, she couldn't help but clenched her sleeves tightly.

She didn't know what Zhao Man'er and Tao Hua had ordered, if they said something that shouldn't be said, how would it end then?

If it doesn't work, she can only push all this on Zhao Man'er.

Anyway, Zhao Man'er had already ruined her once, and it was fair for her to ruin Zhao Man'er once.

"Empress Dowager, Mrs. Lin is here." Dong Mama didn't go out for a long time, and came over with small steps.

The queen mother was slightly surprised, she remembered that the imperial palace was not too close to the grand master's mansion, and the people came just as soon as the order was issued, which was too fast.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was suspicious, Mother Dong leaned into her ear and whispered, "Empress Dowager, His Highness Prince Jing called for someone to come earlier."

The queen mother raised her eyes to look at Liu Han, but saw that the other party raised her eyebrows slightly.

This little fox.

"See Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, Empress Empress, Concubine Jing..." Zhao Man'er held her skirt by the hem, lowered her head, and saluted slowly.

"Get up." The Queen Mother raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Man'er, "Do you know why I called you here?"

Zhao Man'er shook her head: "My wife doesn't know."

"Then do you recognize the person kneeling on the ground?" The queen mother continued to ask.

Zhao Man'er followed her line of sight, and suddenly saw Tao Hua, her pupils constricted violently, and a moment of astonishment flashed quickly.

She had already ordered someone to execute him secretly, why is this man still alive?

When she was suddenly called over by the people in the palace, she was still a little confused, until the moment she saw the peach blossoms, she understood that it seemed to be for the matter of alchemy.

"This person is the maidservant Taohua in my mansion." Zhao Man'er subconsciously glanced at Concubine Jing, but she shook her head, Zhao Man'er was stunned.

"It's good if you recognize it, Emperor, first take Concubine Jing to the side screen to rest." The Empress Dowager calmly took a full view of the two people's eyebrows, she looked at Emperor Chu, and ordered.

The Emperor Chu knew that it was the Empress Dowager who wanted to ask Zhao Man'er alone, so he nodded and said to Concubine Jing: "Jing'er, let's go and rest first, anyway, your mother has never done this, so don't worry."

Concubine Jing glanced at Zhao Man'er, wondering if she understood what she meant.

Hearing what Emperor Chu said, he cursed inwardly, and forced a smile: "Alright."

She spoke weakly, Chu Huang only thought she was too tired, and helped her walk to the screen. He remembered that there was a royal couch there, which was just right for her to rest.

The footsteps gradually went away, and the queen mother looked back at Zhao Man'er: "Why did you throw the peach blossoms to the mass graves and bury them alive?"

Mass graves buried alive?
Zhao Man'er was slightly taken aback, she didn't expect Da Zhuang to deal with it like this, she clearly said that she would kill him on the spot!Otherwise, there is no such thing!
"It's because she..."

Before Zhao Man'er could finish speaking, the Queen Mother continued: "Concubine Jing said that Taohua was executed by you because Taohua stole jade hairpins and sold them. Is this really true?"

"That's right, it was precisely because of the theft that the minister's wife happened to see her. Impulsively, the minister's wife ordered him to be sent out of the mansion. It seems that the servants misunderstood the minister's wife's meaning, and that's why the burial happened." Zhao Man'er tried her best Wanting to maintain his reputation as a virtuous person.

"I see."

The queen mother nodded.

Seeing that Zhao Man'er had been fooled, she breathed a sigh of relief.

In the next second, the Empress Dowager changed her previous amiable attitude and reprimanded sharply: "How dare you play tricks in front of Aijia! You really think Aijia is old and dizzy!"

Zhao Man'er looked at the queen mother puzzled.

"Nurse Dong, tell me what Concubine Jing is talking about?"

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, Concubine Jing didn't say anything." Madam Dong glanced at Zhao Man'er disdainfully, the Queen Mother's eyes were sharp.

"The Empress Dowager forgives the sin, the minister's wife made a mistake, and the minister's wife sent her out of the house because she saw that she was not doing well!"

It was only at this time that Zhao Man'er understood what Concubine Jing meant when she shook her head. It turned out that she hadn't said anything!
That's right, she has been living in the palace, so who knows if there is any theft in the mansion, let alone such an important matter, she must not say anything.

Zhao Man'er couldn't help hating herself for being stupid, she should have thought of this a long time ago, why did she fall into the queen mother's trap.

"Taohua said that you instructed her to make alchemy, is there such a thing?" The queen mother said with a sneer, without saying a word to her words.

"You are wronged, empress dowager, the minister's wife has never said such a thing! It is really a slander!" Zhao Man'er hurriedly shouted, "Peach Blossom, I have treated you well, why do you want to hurt me like this? It's just that the servant misunderstood me It means to bury you alive, aren't you here now?"

"Ma'am, this servant has already told the Queen Mother what you asked this servant to do, so stop resisting!" Taohua twitched her lips.

Zhao Man'er's heart was shocked, and she was still crying: "Empress Dowager, my wife knows the dangers of alchemy, how can she do such a thing?"

"This prescription, can you still read the writing on it?" The Queen Mother frowned, and the mother and daughter were crying at every turn, looking extremely irritable.

Zhao Man'er took it, and when she saw the prescription, her fingers shook slightly.

She had clearly asked Taohua to hand over the prescription, why would she keep this?Moreover, it was her own handwriting!

How can it be?

"Ma'am, don't you think that this servant has no back-hands? Since you gave the prescription to this servant, this servant has asked someone to transcribe a copy according to your handwriting, and the one handed to you is the imitated copy. Naturally, it was written by you yourself, Madam! Originally, Madam did not execute the servants, and the servants will keep this prescription until death. Since the Madam is ruthless to the servants, then don’t blame the servants for being unrighteous!" Tao Hua spoke at the right time, seeing Zhao Man’er’s eyes filled with Shocked and delighted.

Maybe she thought about this moment when she was about to execute herself?
She Taohua is not such a person who likes to be bored!If you find an opportunity, you will definitely return it all! !
"Empress Dowager, this... this must be a copy! The minister's wife has never written this!" Zhao Man'er gritted her teeth and denied that alchemy is a felony, and she must never admit it!
As long as she does not plead guilty and puts everything on Taohua, things will turn around.

In this way, Concubine Jing can save her!
"Whether it is true or not, the Ai family will hand it over to Mrs. Liu Enliu for appraisal." The queen mother winked at Mammy Dong, and Mammy Dong walked up to Zhao Man'er to take away the prescription.

Zhao Man'er wanted to find a chance to tear this thing up, but if she took action, the queen mother would only doubt her more.

She had heard of Liu En. He was a famous Confucian of the Great Chu Dynasty, and he had a deep research on handwriting.

Her palms were slightly wet, if it was really identified, even this alchemy would not be able to escape from her, what should I do?

Thinking of this, Zhao Man'er's mind turned quickly.

His eyes fell on the tea table behind Dong Nanny, and he suddenly had an idea.

She stood up abruptly and fell forward, just in time to touch the coffee table in front of her. She pretended to fall and couldn't stand up, and let the tea wet the prescription list.

If Mother Dong hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been stabbed by broken glass.

"Bastard! Are you going to destroy the evidence?" The Queen Mother patted the table with unconcealable anger.

Zhao Man'er struggled to stand up, it was really not an act, her leg accidentally crushed a piece of broken glass, and there was still blood at the moment.

It was clearly in excruciating pain, but Zhao Man'er glanced at the wet prescription, but was extremely happy in her heart.

It's really great, the handwriting has been blurred by the tea, and it has long lost its previous appearance. Even if it was handed over to Liu En, he would not be able to recognize it.

The only evidence that could prove her knowledge finally disappeared.

Concubine Jing, who had been paying attention to this side from the screen, heard this movement, and ran to Zhao Man'er's side regardless of Emperor Chu's obstruction, and helped her stand up.

"Mother, are you okay!" Concubine Jing looked anxious, "Why are you bleeding?"

Zhao Man'er was taken aback by Concubine Jing's sudden concern. In her impression, this was the first time Concubine Jing treated her so patiently and tenderly.

For a moment, she felt that the eldest daughter had returned.

Even though she knew that this was Concubine Jing's disguise, she still couldn't help but indulge in this moment.

"It's okay, mother is fine, mother is just a little skinny." Zhao Man'er smiled softly.

Concubine Jing paused slightly for holding her fingers, and lowered her eyes to hide the turbulent emotions.

"Mother, what's going on here? How could Mrs. Lin be injured?" Chu Huang walked over and was startled when he saw the blood around Zhao Man'er.
