The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

Yi Meiren glanced at her, but stopped arguing with her. Instead, she knelt down and saluted in the direction of Lu Zhaolin, saying: "Your Majesty, Rong Bing, regarding the Musk incident, I was indeed wronged. Concubine. I grew up under my grandmother's knees and learned all about etiquette, justice, integrity, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. I will never dare to disobey my grandmother's teachings and do anything that will harm the emperor's heirs."

Lu Zhaolin took a deep look at her and said, "Yimei, please wake up. I can certainly trust the eldest princess's virtue and education."

However, the beautiful woman did not stand up, but kowtowed once more and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." I request Your Majesty to investigate the Shuyu girl next to the imperial concubine. Before finding out the truth, I am willing to be banned from Yonghe Palace to prove it. clean."

Yi Meiren said this openly. After saying this, Jiang Shiying said hello to her in her heart.

This time, if there is no ironclad proof that the musk was indeed added to the spice by Yimei, she would be crucified to death. I'm afraid that not only will it not hurt her, but it will also establish a clear image of her in Lu Zhaolin's heart - smart, decisive, and calm in the face of danger. In addition, she also understands the general situation and considers the overall situation.

Hearing this, the imperial concubine snorted coldly, knelt down to Lu Zhaolin, and said: "Your Majesty, I can guarantee that this spice is not a problem in Xianfu Palace, nor is Shu Yu betraying me. Did some manipulation."

Yi Meiren said: "Do you dare to let someone check Miss Shuyu's room?"

"Why don't you dare?" the imperial concubine said, "Shu Yu's room is at the back. Eunuch Yao can take people to check it now."

Lu Zhaolin sighed and said: "Forget it, then Yao Xingde, just take someone to check."

Yao Xingde said "Promise" and personally led the people to the back.

After a cup of tea, Yao Xingde entered the palace, took out a small paper bag from his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, the servants found this in Shuyu's room."

Shu Yu was standing in the hall at this time. When he saw the paper bag in Yao Xingde's hand, his color immediately changed.

Lu Zhaolin said: "History of Zhao Yuan, come and take a look."

Zhao Yuanshi took the paper bag and opened it, revealing dark brown powder inside. Zhao Yuanshi sniffed the powder, dipped some of it with his fingers, tasted it in his mouth, and then said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, this is musk."

The imperial concubine turned around suddenly and looked at Shu Yu who was standing in the palace. Her tone was filled with disbelief: "Shu Yu, I have always treated you well!"

At this time, Shu Yu was shaking like chaff, and knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, I am really not a slave. I don't know where this powder comes from."

The imperial concubine covered her eyes with a veil and turned her head away from looking at her.

First, Lu Zhaolin said in a deep voice: "Send Shu Yu into the Sentence Department and interrogate him severely."

Then, when he looked at Yi Meiren, his voice became much gentler and said: "Get up, you have been wronged in this matter."

Beauty Yi stood up with a gentle smile on her lips: "Thank you, Your Majesty. As long as the emperor's heir is fine, I will not feel aggrieved."

···

A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Shiying leaned crookedly on the heated kang in the East Nuan Pavilion of Jingyang Palace, wondering in her mind who was behind what happened today.

Suddenly, she straightened her upper body and said, "Go and ask Yu Chengyi to come in."

Not long after, Yu Chengyi entered the door and saluted: "I have met your empress."

"No need." Jiang Shiying said: "That Shuyu next to the imperial concubine, do you know where she came from?"

Yu Chengyi thought for a moment and said: "I only know that Shu Yu was serving the imperial concubine the year His Majesty ascended the throne. More information can only be known after inquiring."

Jiang Shiying said: "Then go and find out."

Yu Chengyi made a "promise" sound, followed the order and retreated.

He worked very quickly, and found out the accurate information before the key was released that night.

"I would like to inform you that Shuyu was not brought by the imperial concubine from home. It was arranged for her by the palace when the imperial concubine entered the palace."

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Shiying's lips curved: "Did the palace arrange it for her?"

Yu Chengyi nodded.

The curvature of Jiang Shiying's lips became wider. It was arranged by the palace, in other words, it was arranged by the empress who was still the princess back then.

After Cheng Yi exited, Qiu Yu asked, "Mother, is it possible that what happened today was planned by the Queen?"

Jiang Shiying shook her head: "No."

If this musk really caused something to happen to the imperial concubine, it might have been designed by the empress.

But today, the imperial concubine was unscathed. On the contrary, it was the person who had been arranged by the queen in the early years to be with the concubine. Musk was found in the room, and the person was also thrown into the punishment department. It was not known what he was about to spit out.

Her lips parted slightly: "Your concubine, this is a thief who is shouting to catch a thief."

But she doesn't know whether the thief she wants to catch is the Queen alone, or the Queen and Yi Meiren.

Yi Meiren has finally cleared her suspicions.

As for the queen, we still have to see what Shuyu spits out in the Shenxing Division.

The next day, the Shenxing Division came out with the results.

Lu Zhaolin held Shu Yu's confession in his hand. After reading it, he sneered and threw the confession aside.

This thing is really interesting.

Shu Yu refused to admit that she had tampered with the spices, but admitted that she had been with the imperial concubine and secretly informed the queen in Fengyi Palace.

There are really many talented people in his harem.

Lu Zhaolin laughed again and then said: "Take this confession to Fengyi Palace and show it to the Queen."

He only said that he would show the confession to the queen, but did not say what punishment he would give to the queen.

Yao Xingde made a "promise" sound, followed the order and retreated.

Lu Zhaolin himself stood up and said: "Let's drive to Jingyang Palace."

In Jingyang Palace.

When Lu Zhaolin arrived, Jiang Shiying was still taking a rest and had not yet woken up.

Lu Zhaolin didn't let anyone disturb her, he just said: "I'm going to see if you are safe."

In the side room, Ping An happened to be awake, and the wet nurse was holding him and walking around the room.

Lu Zhaolin took him from the nanny's arms and sat on the edge of the soft couch.

As soon as Ping An saw his father, he was very happy with him.

When Lu Zhaolin saw his smiling face, he felt that all the worries just now disappeared.

Suddenly, Lu Zhaolin felt something was wrong with him.

When he looked down, he saw that water was dripping from the end of his clothes. It turned out that Ping An peed directly on him.

The nanny had never seen this scene before and was already kneeling on the ground, begging for forgiveness.

Aunt Wan was still able to hold on, and asked someone to call for water, and arranged for someone to get spare clothes.

Jiang Shiying took a break and stood up. Qiu Yu helped her stand up and whispered in her ear: "Empress, Your Majesty has just arrived. When Your Majesty was holding the Eighth Prince, the Eighth Prince peed all over him."

"What?" Jiang Shiying raised his eyes and looked at her: "Where is your Majesty?"

Qiu Yu said: "Your Majesty is taking a bath at the moment."

Jiang Shiying walked to the dressing table and sat down, and asked, "Your Majesty, aren't you angry?"

Qiu Yu shook her head and said, "No."
