Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

"His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince."

Taiwei Sun turned pale with shock, and hurriedly asked someone to help him.

But the Seventh Prince, who was supposed to be lying on the bed, waved his hands lightly to keep everyone away, just supporting the woman beside him, his neck was still fixed by the plaster cast that Xia Bai'an had put on before, it seemed vaguely funny, but his eyes were Very cold.

He tightly clasped the hand of the woman beside him.

The woman then spoke.

"His Highness the Seventh Prince just woke up, and heard that the front field was in chaos because of his affairs. His Highness, the Seventh Prince, didn't want to make the emperor so worried, let alone disturb the emperor's interest in the spring outing, so he came here specially to identify the murderer. "

Seeing this, King Li scoffed coldly.

"Ha, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince can't even speak, and his leg injury hasn't healed yet, yet he asked a little girl who came from nowhere to speak for him. Who knows if what you said is true or not!"

The woman frowned for a moment, and quickly recovered her calm expression.

"The concubine is the concubine of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, Qin Yaoyao. The concubine comes from the medical family of Jishitang and has a little knowledge of medical skills. I just woke up the Seventh Prince. Naturally, I asked the Seventh Prince to write with pen and ink. I just learned that the seven His Royal Highness wants to come and identify the murderer."

Qin Yaoyao.

It was the first time Xia Bai'an heard this name.

However, it is not difficult to see that she was the former concubine of Ji Shi Tang Qin family with the help of Yun Xue.

Unexpectedly, she had some medical skills by her side, and could make His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince wake up so quickly.

Through the gap in the screen, she could vaguely see the woman's face, which was somewhat similar to Qin Tiansheng's, indeed like a brother and sister.

only……

His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince's complexion was particularly bad.

Xia Bai'an narrowed her eyes slightly, Mingxin also saw the movement outside, frowned and said: "What is this woman doing, a mere concubine dares to stand in front of the emperor, and she is not afraid of disturbing the emperor."

"She is the daughter of the Qin family in Jishitang. Although she is a concubine, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince does not have a regular wife. His willingness to trust this concubine also proves that this concubine is indeed reliable. Now, the most important thing is to clarify the matter."

Xia Bai'an explained to Nanny Mingxin.

Her voice was not loud.

But the emperor outside heard it clearly, and the emperor looked sideways: "Go and help the seventh prince to sit down, Qin Yaoyao, come to me and tell me clearly, who is the person who hurt the seventh prince."

Sun Taiwei hurriedly sent someone to help the seventh prince to the front to sit down.

Before leaving, Li Jie pointed something to Qin Yaoyao, Qin Yaoyao nodded obediently, and then came to the emperor and knelt down, respectfully, but he didn't know too much etiquette, so he said it directly.

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince just wrote the note, please read it, Your Majesty."

She carefully took out a note from her bosom, but she didn't know who to give it to, so she waved it around hesitantly.

The eunuch next to the emperor quickly took it and reminded in a low voice: "You don't need to panic, just wait."

"Yes."

Qin Yaoyao blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head again, but looked at Li Jie from time to time.

Li Jie waved his hand to signal her not to panic, but his eyes were gentle.

Sun Taiwei next to him saw it and his eyes sank.

The Seventh Prince has not married a wife yet, but he has already become obsessed with a concubine!In the future, maybe he can't even speak, but he still cares about the mood of this little concubine, it's too indecent!

So he grabbed Li Jie fiercely, and said in a cold voice: "His Royal Highness is self-respecting, this is the time to find the murderer, I didn't ask you to come here to comfort a useless servant."

He deliberately bit the word "servant" very hard.

Li Jie opened his mouth, but he couldn't make any sound. Instead, he spit out a mouthful of blood foam. He couldn't explain anything to Sun Taiwei, so he just put down his swinging hand and waited silently.

When Qin Yaoyao saw this, her eyes were stung, and she lowered her head completely, waiting for the emperor's will.

The emperor took the note.

Sure enough, the note was written in Li Jie's handwriting, but because of the pain and unable to bow his head, some words were crooked, but...you can understand something.

After the emperor finished watching, his eyes were cold.

"Fifth prince, you are really my good son! Concubine Xu raised you up so much that she wanted you to murder her own brother!"

He threw the note viciously in front of Li Cong.

Li Cong turned pale with shock, did the fifth prince really find out where the medicine powder came from!

He opened the note and saw that it read——

"The fierce tiger hurts people. My son caught a glimpse of the person hiding behind the woods. It was the fifth brother. He used stones to knock off things on his body, like jade."

Li Cong's pupils shrank: "Nonsense! Seventh brother is trying to slander me. I have always kept her relics in my arms and never exposed them. How could you..."

He has never seen any stone hidden weapon!

It's all Li Jie's nonsense!

"Report to the emperor! The jade earrings that your imperial guards found from the tiger's belly are solid evidence! Besides, the matter of the medicine powder was mentioned before as having a relationship with Concubine Xu. The Fifth Prince and Concubine Xu are very suspicious. Please your Majesty seek justice for Concubine Degui and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince!"

Taiwei Sun interrupted Li Cong eagerly, took off his helmet, and kowtowed heavily to the emperor.

At this time, an imperial doctor from the Royal Hospital also came in a hurry.

"Reporting to the emperor, the medicines mentioned yesterday are all recorded in the Royal Hospital. Concubine Xu did go to the palace for some. Although the amount is small, everything is right!"

Concubine Xu frowned.

He turned to look at Li Cong, Li Cong was also sweating from his forehead.

At that time, they just wanted to try those medicines, and then thought that the medicine powder would fall into the soil, and no one would notice, but they didn't expect...

unambiguous evidence.

These four words came to Xia Bai'an's mind, and he patted the Empress Dowager on the back lightly, signaling that Li Chen was fine.

But the Empress Dowager's eyes flickered for a moment, and finally she let out a long sigh, and murmured: "It's really a crime for him to raise the prince like this..."

"what?"

Xia Bai'an didn't hear clearly.

But the queen mother gently took her hand, as if she was holding the last piece of driftwood in the waves, and held it tightly, as if she was afraid that she would slip away quietly like this.

Xia Bai'an went in without knowing it, but he also tightly held the somewhat rough hand of the elder, and gently stroked her palm.

Nanny Mingxin saw it, her eyes lowered her head in pain.

The emperor outside the screen looked at the fifth prince coldly.

"It seems that you have nothing to refute! This matter was done by you and Concubine Xu, is there any involvement of King An behind it!"

Li Cong suddenly raised his head, and glanced at Li Chen beside him.

Li Chen's eyes darkened.

This fifth prince, don't even think about finding him as a backstop!

Li Cong glanced at the emperor, then at Li Chen, hesitating.

It's hard to explain this matter... I don't know if Li Chen will help Princess An and Concubine Mu because of their friendship after his accident...

Or, as long as he is pulled into the water, he will have to explain himself in order to survive.

Just like Li Jie told lies to murder himself.

Li Cong rolled his eyes: "King An, you know I didn't do this at all! Whether it's the medicine powder or the note, it's not about murdering the seventh brother!"
