concubine daughter

Chapter 24
Qingyi fetched the silver needle, tried the bowl of medicine, and then asked the maid to test the medicine, "Grandma, it's not poisonous."

"Send it away." Jun Xi lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Yes." Qingyi sent the medicine to the second lady's Hanbiju, and the second lady ordered: "Just now I heard from Madam Chongyi that I often feel restless, and the osmanthus twig has a calming effect, so you can take it to your mother. "

Qingyi took the order and went to Huanbiju where Chongyi was.

"Your Majesty, Madam ordered your servants to bring osmanthus twigs to make up for your empress." Qing Yi knelt and lowered her head.

Chong Yi exchanged a few words with the maidservant, and the maidservant made a farewell ceremony, with a smile that could not be concealed from the corner of her mouth, and said happily: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this maidservant will go into the palace and tell the emperor."

The maid passed by Qing Yi, Qing Yi glanced sideways, and saw the pair of shoes of the maid quickly disappeared in front of Qing Yi's eyes.

Another servant girl took the cinnamon stick from Qing Yi's hand, tested the poison before giving it to Chong Yi.

"Mother's kindness, I will naturally accept it." As he spoke, he took the jade spoon given by the emperor and fed it into his mouth one by one, "Seeing you strangely, are you the new maidservant from Hanbiju?"

Qingyi was dismissed, so she got up to answer, stood respectfully in one place, and said in a moderate tone, "If you want to return to your mother, the servant is the maidservant of Yuanliuju, Feijingyuan, and Yuanliuju is the second grandmother's residence. "

"Second Grandma..." Chong Yi was stunned, and the jade spoon in her hand almost fell to the ground, "Why did you send the osmanthus twigs that Second Madam sent?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Qingyi immediately knelt down, "Back to the empress, it was concubine Shu who gave it to the second mistress, and asked the second mistress to give it to the second madam. Madam heard that the empress was disturbed, so she specially ordered her servants to bring it."

"Yuyin, send the imperial physician here immediately!" Chong Yi looked flustered, and loudly reprimanded Qing Yi, "Why didn't you tell me earlier, you lowly servant girl! If there is a slight mistake in this palace, I will definitely not spare you!"

Although Qingyi was a little uneasy, she was still eloquent and eloquent as usual, and immediately argued for herself, "Your Majesty, calm down, your Majesty has just experienced and tested the poison, so it means that Guizhi is not poisonous. If your Majesty makes a mistake, why not Can you blame the slaves? Isn’t this a crime of desire?”

"Bold!" The old mama stepped forward and slapped Qingyi hard, "You poor maidservant, in front of your mother, you are so indifferent! Aren't you afraid that someone's head will fall to the ground?"

"Even if the empress wants to punish the servant, there must be a reason. The mother just slapped the servant, which is a lynching. The servant belongs to the second mistress, and the second mistress will make the decision for the slave."

The nanny was about to continue to teach Qingyi a lesson, when she suddenly heard a servant girl shout, "Your Majesty." The nanny turned around and faced Chong Yi, only to see that Chong Yi's face gradually turned pale, and he was clutching his stomach, and fell down on the couch in pain. It's not as good as dead.

"Come here, save me quickly, my child may be lost." Chong Yi made an almost powerless voice, which frightened all the palace people in the residence. Qingyi was also terrified, and she had never heard of Ying. How could Chong Yi's pregnancy happen so suddenly?
Taking advantage of the inattentiveness of the palace people, Qingyi escaped from Huanbi Residence, and hurried back to Yuanliu Residence, "Grandma! Grandma! Something is wrong!"

Jun Xi was sipping afternoon tea leisurely when he suddenly choked on the tea. He felt that this was an ominous omen, so he heard Qing Yi's cry and knew something had happened.

"Grandma!" Qing Yi knelt in front of Jun Xi, "Second Madam sent the osmanthus branch bestowed by Concubine Shu to Chong Yi, but unexpectedly, within a few moments, Chong Yi said that she had a miscarriage..."

Jun Xi tried her best to calm herself down, but rubbed her hands unnaturally, and even forgot where to put the teacup in her hand, "Miscarriage? I never heard that Empress Chongyi was pregnant, so why did you say miscarriage? "

"My servant doesn't know either. I saw the blood on my mother's lower body... nine out of ten it's true." Qingyi became more and more frightened as she spoke, and grabbed Jun Xi's clothes, "Grandma, we sent the osmanthus twigs. Only now did the empress say that she would not let us go."

Jun Xi lost her mind and knocked the teacup to the ground, "I won't let you go! It's nonsense! When the bowl of cinnamon sticks was sent out, I tested for poison, and I must have tested it there. Why don't you let it go? The princess of my majestic general's mansion, how can she be slandered by a fifth-rank concubine!"

"Grandma calm down... The situation is already chaotic. If grandma doesn't calm down, she might become a scapegoat."

"You mean a scapegoat? Concubine Shu!" Jun Xi patted the case, and the servants in the first room knelt on the ground. There was a tense atmosphere in the air. It was really hard to guard against. How did Concubine Shu do it?

Xiangyi is in the middle, and Man Qing often pays attention to Jun Xi's movements. Just after learning that Jun Xi has been framed, she hastily took the medicine to restore her body, and her body gradually recovered a lot.

"Sigh, cleverness is mistaken by cleverness." Man Qing laughed at Jun Xi, seeming to gloat over others' misfortune.

Yun Zhi pushed the door open and entered, and replied, "Grandma, the spies at Yuanliuju said that the emperor has ordered someone to take away the second mistress. It seems that she is going to the palace. It is estimated that the emperor personally interrogated her."

"How long have you been taken?" Man Qing asked lightly.

Yunzhi counted the time, "It's been half an hour... and, grandma, my wife is here."

"Please, Xu is here to visit a doctor, I need to tell her that she is fine." Man Qing's expressionless face was a little more joyful, and her complexion was much better than before.

Qing's mother was invited into the room by Yunzhi.

Man Qing greeted her happily, and blessed Qing's mother, "Daughter, please greet mother." Man Qing just stood up and raised her head, when she was greeted with a heavy slap.

"Mother?" Man Qing covered her face inexplicably, looking innocently at Qing's mother.

"My mother hates brotherhood the most in my life!" A few tears leaked from Qing's mother's eyes, and her eyes were full of remorse, "You can't even save your first sister, are you still human? She used to be so good to you!"

Man Qing's eye sockets were moistened immediately, and her legs couldn't stand firmly, but luckily Yun Zhi held her up in time.

"Mother, she's not my sister-in-law. She's my enemy. With her around, dad doesn't love you or me, does he?" Man Qing knelt down, holding back her tears habitually. Jun Xi shed a tear.

"Without her, you wouldn't be able to live now!" Mother Qing reprimanded Man Qing sharply, "How could I have given birth to a daughter like you! I might as well die!"
