The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

The dead rat was quickly taken away and disposed of by the palace staff.

"Your Majesty, I am so scared..."

"It's okay, it's okay, be good, I'm here."

Lu Zan hugged Jing Shu and comforted her warmly, but his handsome face was as sinking as water.

"It's so vicious! The person who did it in the dark deliberately used this thing to scare Sister Yuan Concubine. He clearly wanted to frighten Sister Yuan Concubine and cause fetal movement!" Concubine Ning frowned, "Your Majesty, from now on, what can I eat around Sister Yuan Concubine? You must be more careful with anything you use and can touch with your hands!"

"Wang Zhong, whose hands did that tea cup pass through just now? Go check it out!" Lu Zan immediately ordered.

"My slave obeys the order!" Wang Zhong hurriedly went.

Jing Shu nestled in Lu Zan's arms with a white face, but her eyes swept towards everyone.

When her eyes met Mrs. Li's, she immediately knew who did it.

Soon, Wang Zhong came back with a bitter look on his face and reported: "Your Majesty, a palace maid drowned just now. She was the one who brought tea to Concubine Yuan."

When the palace maid died, the clue was lost.

Lu Zan's face suddenly became even uglier, and the cold and frightening low pressure around him made everyone in the Wenhua Hall remain silent.

"Your Majesty, forget it. Fortunately, it's just a dead mouse and not tea with arsenic added. Otherwise, if I drank it, I might have lost one and two lives." Jing Shu said at this time, and she knew in her heart that this was the tea that was given to her by the other party. warned, "It's just that tonight is New Year's Eve. On such a festive day, I have caused such a trouble. After all, I have spared everyone's interest. I want to go back and rest."

"How could it be your fault? You are pregnant with a dragon heir. This is a more festive thing than New Year's Eve." Lu Zan frowned and corrected her, paused, and then said, "Will I accompany you back?"

"How can the emperor be absent from such an important occasion as the New Year's Eve palace banquet?" Jing Shu shook her head and looked up at him, "Can I let my mother accompany my concubine?"

"Yes." Lu Zan agreed immediately without hesitation, and looked at Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li stood up quickly and walked up to him with a submissive look on her face.

"Mrs. Li is taking good care of Concubine Yuan." Lu Zan said.

"My wife obeys the decree, Your Majesty, please rest assured." Mrs. Li lowered her head and said respectfully.

After that, Jingshu was accompanied by Mrs. Li and returned to Yicui Palace.

"You all go down first. I want to say a few words to my mother." Jing Shu ordered the palace attendants.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The palace people all retreated, including Xiu Qing and Xiu Dong.

Only Jing Shu and Mrs. Li were left in the hall.

Without anyone around, the cautious and cowardly expression on Mrs. Li's face suddenly disappeared without a trace. With a sharp coldness in her eyes, she looked at Jing Shu and said, "What did I tell you before? Did you Have you forgotten? You should pay attention to your identity! How dare you conceive a dragon heir?

"Do you know that Nannan is back?

"It's time for you to return the position of Concubine Yuan to Nannan! But now that you are pregnant with the dragon heir, what will you do if you call Nannan!"

When Jing Shu heard this, she knew why Mrs. Li put dead mice in her tea bowl.

It turned out that it was for her daughter again.

Jingshu was still a little hesitant before telling Mrs. Li about her life experience, but now, she suddenly decided not to say anything. Just because Mrs. Li had never shown even a little bit of kindness to her.

"So, madam, I want to warn me." Jingshu said very firmly. After sitting down on the main seat, she sighed, "What should I do? I am already pregnant with the dragon heir, so I can't do this. Fake, Madam wants to ask me to move the daughter's position, but I'm afraid she can only think about it."

"You're brave!" Mrs. Li didn't expect that she would dare to speak like this, and she was so angry that she frowned, "Don't forget who you are! A beggar who sold his body on the street to bury his father! You actually want to take my daughter's place and refuse to give it back to her. Her? Do you believe it or not, I will make everything clear to the Emperor. Do you think you, a beggar who has no place on the stage, can continue to enjoy the favor of the Holy Emperor in the palace? With the temper of the Holy Emperor, he will definitely kill you!"

"I will kill you too." Jing Shu was not intimidated by her threatening remarks at all, but responded calmly, "I will also kill Taifu Jing, including your sworn brother who violated the imperial edict in order to run away with him. My good daughter! Your entire Jing family will also be executed by the Holy Lord for the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

When Mrs. Li heard this, she immediately choked.

"Mrs. Li is right. I have a high status. If Mrs. Li wants me to die, I will drag your whole family to die with me. I will be buried with you noble tutors, madams, and rich ladies. It’s all earned.”

Jing Shu's eyes were sarcastic, and her words were quite confident, "Mrs. Li wants to go to the Holy Emperor to complain, so please do so. I won't stop you. If Madam forgets the way to Wenhua Hall, I will still You can send a servant to take Mrs. Li there."

Mrs. Li was completely stunned.

She opened her eyes wide and looked at Jing Shu in disbelief.

It seemed that he didn't understand for a moment. How could Jingshu, who had been so weak and humble in front of him the last time they met, dare to disobey her so boldly this time.

But Mrs. Li's eyes quickly turned sinister.

"Since you refuse to give up your seat, don't blame me for being rude! How long have you been in the palace? And I have been running the palace for many years, and I have used many methods to kill you and the fetus in your belly. Don't think that you are unwilling to give up your seat. , you can secure this seat!" There was a sneer at the corner of Mrs. Li's mouth.

"This is my letter." Jing Shu nodded calmly, "I am not saying this today because I want to be an enemy of Mrs. Li, but because I want to have a discussion with Mrs. Li."

Mrs. Li didn't answer, just frowned and looked at her.

She raised her hand to caress her flat belly, and said in an extremely calm tone: "The harem is dangerous. Although I am pregnant with a dragon heir, I am indeed unable to protect her. If Madam is willing to help, I can guarantee that , as soon as the dragon heir is born, I will immediately give way to Ling Qianjin.

"At that time, Ling Qianjin will not only be able to sit on the concubine's throne, but also be able to rely on the birth of a dragon heir mother and son. In this business, Madam will only make a profit but not lose, how about it?"

"You can be so kind?" Mrs. Li didn't believe it, "How do I know if you are trying to slow down the fight and deceive me? What if you refuse to give up the throne while waiting for you to give birth to a dragon heir? Wouldn't it be in vain for my daughter to wait for you? Yue? Besides, are you willing to give up everything in this palace?"

"Although the palace is prosperous, it is not free. Madam is very capable. If you are really worried, it is better to let Ling Qianjin enter the palace first. If I regret it then, why do you worry that Madam has no means to deal with me?" Jing Shu said with a smile.

Mrs. Li fell into a brief silence.

She had to admit that Jing Shu's proposal was very tempting to her.

Mrs. Li stayed in Yicui Palace for a long time before finally leaving. As soon as the palace banquet was over, she immediately left the palace with Taifu Jing.

Lu Zan left early and came to Yicui Palace.

As soon as they entered the hall, they saw Jingshu sitting facing the window with red eyes, silently dazed.

"What's wrong?" Lu Zan stepped forward and hugged her into his arms. He looked carefully at her beautiful face with pear blossoms and raindrops. He brushed away the tears from the corners of her eyes and frowned, "Why are you still crying? Could it be that Mrs. Li and What did you say that you shouldn't have said?"
