After saying this, Nini felt relieved. She nodded vigorously and went up to identify them one by one.

After looking around carefully, Nini's head was shaking.

Obviously, there was no culprit in pushing Nini. After the little girl recognized it, she shrank into Zhou Xiaoyuan's arms with some worry, fearing whether she had made any mistakes. She even asked, "Do you want to read it again?"

The concubine next to her who had been recognized by Nini looked relieved just now, but now her head is about to explode when she hears these words.

Princess Jialun also said that children may have bad memories and wanted Nini to recognize her again, but before she could finish her words, Concubine Shu frowned.

Concubine Shu didn't refute Princess Jialun's words, she simply asked: "What's going on? Why didn't Qi Concubine come over? Didn't she notify the palace?"

As soon as she said this, Princess Jialun decisively shut up. The leader eunuch next to her knelt down in fear and said hesitantly: "That shouldn't be the case. I have already informed everyone one by one. The masters who know the seriousness of the matter should be here... …I guess you were delayed on the way?”

The chief eunuch was not trying to excuse Qi Bin, but simply because he was responsible for the matter.

If someone is really punished because he did not receive the message and did not come, the chief eunuch will also be responsible.

So it was natural that he looked a little anxious for a while.

The emperor didn't care much about this. Solving the matter was the most important thing, so he just frowned and said, "Then why are you still hanging around? Go and invite me again. There must be no mistakes this time." "

The leader eunuch hurriedly responded, but when he brought his people over, he saw black smoke rising from a palace in the distance.

When I got closer, I realized that there was a fire in Qi Bin's palace!

At this moment, Qi Bin was sitting on the dressing table, quietly looking at her expressionless face in the mirror, with fire all over her body. She saw that the fire was about to spread to herself, but she did not dodge, nor did she mean to turn around and run away.

There were continuous cries outside, most of which were caused by the palace maids being accidentally injured. Qi Bin even heard the cry of the Seventh Prince.

He was calling his mother and concubine, asking where Qi Bin was.

Qi Bin closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face, washing away the makeup on her face, looking ferocious and embarrassed.

As early as when she got the news, Qi Bin knew what would happen to her. As expected, the emperor summoned the concubines from the harem for a confrontation. Qi Bin did not dare to make even a small bet.

Of course she didn't dare to confront Nini. Children can't lie, and the emperor favored Princess Jialun. She had no chance of winning against Nini, not to mention that she was not in the palace at the time and no one could. Testify for her and the result is crystal clear.

After thinking about this, Qi Bin actually calmed down. She knew that she was destined to die, but the seventh prince could not.

That is her only child, the only hope she places in this world. The seventh prince must not be harmed by his mother. As long as he does not confront Nini, even if the whole world knows that she committed suicide out of fear of crime...

That would be better than having the crime nailed on the record, causing the Seventh Prince to be unable to hold his head up for the rest of his life.

Qi Bin is a mother. She did this because she was worried about the future of the seventh prince at first, and now she is still worried about the future of the seventh prince as always.

It is completely conceivable that after the Dongchuang Incident, Qi Bin would be thrown into the cold palace, or sentenced to death, or

Maybe there seems to be a big difference between the two, but for the seventh prince, no matter which one it is, his future is completely ruined by his mother.

Qi Bin couldn't bear that she would be a drag on her child, so she had to break things off. She took this opportunity to dress up, and then pretended to be angry and drove everyone away.

Finally, he poured kerosene on it and knocked over the candlestick.

The fire ignited in an instant, and it rushed towards the door first with overwhelming force. Soon someone outside noticed the sudden fire and called for people to put out the fire, but it was too late.

The spreading fire eroded all the wooden structures, and Qi Bin felt the piercing pain before the beams burned.

She was so happy that she even smiled. As long as her face was ruined, nothing would be held accountable. As the seventh prince, the emperor would not spread such scandals everywhere even if he didn't want to see him.

Maybe the seventh prince will live a miserable life in the following days, but it is better than having to bear the burden of a sinful mother and concubine.

Thinking of this, Qi Bin finally closed her eyes.

The fire was so fierce that even though the chief eunuch quickly summoned people to put out the fire, the main hall, which was the most severely burned, was still completely burned to ashes. Fortunately, the seventh prince was sleeping in the side hall at the time.

After hearing the noise, he got up the earliest and was the most anxious, but the palace people stopped him and refused to let him in.

After all, who are you kidding? There is already a master inside. If something happens to the Seventh Prince again, they won't be able to chop off their heads.

This also led to the fact that when the body was finally seen, no one identified it, but everyone knew who the only body was. The seventh prince

He immediately rushed over and broke down crying, and the leader eunuch was even more stunned.

He had no idea how things turned out like this, but the emperor obviously wanted to reply.

The chief eunuch had a headache, and in the end he could only comfort the seventh prince. While asking people to deal with the scene, he said: "Your Majesty is still on the other side. Your Highness, the seventh prince, why don't you come here with me?"

The seventh prince was obviously unwilling. He wanted to stay with his mother. The leader eunuch was in a dilemma and could only wait there by himself.

At the same time, he ordered someone to inform His Majesty.

Later, the seventh prince's voice became hoarse from crying and he lost his strength from crying. When the eunuch saw that there was something going on, he quickly asked the palace servants to help the seventh prince and rushed over.

Naturally, the emperor had known about it for a long time. The news of the leak had already spread before the Seventh Prince arrived. Everyone frowned. Everyone obviously had their own thoughts but they didn't say it clearly.

When the seventh prince was brought over, the eunuch reported that Qi Bin had not been rescued and only the seventh prince was still safe and sound.

Upon hearing this, before anyone else said anything, Concubine Jia was the first to sneer.

She was polite to the emperor, but that didn't mean she would be the same to other people. Originally, this matter was done by Qi Bin herself, so Concubine Jia naturally didn't mind making this matter bigger.

So Concubine Jia snorted coldly and said in a rather strange way: "If you don't go to the water in the morning, you will go to the water later, but you have to go to the water at this time."

Even though this person had not finished speaking, there were not a few people who had the same thought as her, even Zhou Xiaoyuan herself was aware of it.

Concubine Jia obviously meant something, but...

Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't even understand why Concubine Jia was

What will help yourself? No matter how you look at it, this matter has nothing to do with her. What is she doing at this time?
