After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

Murong Yue's eyes were slightly cold, her face darkened, and she asked in a cold voice: "Are all the things I ordered you to prepare ready?"

"Your Majesty, she has been sent to the palace, but do you really want to do this?" The expression on Dieyun's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Murong Yue had already made up her mind, her eyes filled with poison, "This Concubine Yi, relying on the fact that she is pregnant with the heir of the emperor, doesn't even take me seriously. If she gives birth to a prince in the future, won't she climb over my head? How can I tolerate her?"

“But what if…” Die Yun was extremely worried and looked at her with panic in her eyes.

Murong Yue raised her voice, not afraid at all, "What are you afraid of? I have already found a scapegoat."

The lights were just coming on, the Yaoguang Hall was brightly lit, the sound of stringed instruments was melodious, and a grand palace banquet was taking place.

Zheng Xiyan accompanied Xiao Xuanchen and the Queen Mother to the Yaoguang Palace. Everyone stood up to greet them, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Queen."

The three of them walked up the jade steps and sat down. Xiao Xuanchen waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. Stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Zheng Xiyan sat down, she glanced at His Highness. Xi Muyao and Shen Aoning had both taken their seats, with Xi Muyao in the first place, followed by Murong Yue, then the Concubine Xian, and finally Shen Aoning.

Concubine Yi was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a beautiful face. She sat in the second row with Xu Chongyuan, Wen Chongyi and others.

Xi Muyao had a proud look on her face. Even though her current situation was unfavorable, she still maintained a condescending attitude.

Compared to Xi Muyao, Shen Aoning was very calm. Her purpose tonight was just to see her daughter, nothing more.

Murong Yue looked like she was enjoying the show, her eyes occasionally falling on Concubine Yi behind her. She couldn't laugh tonight.

Concubine Xian was extremely nervous from beginning to end. After all, she was the one who prepared this New Year's Eve banquet, and she was afraid that anything could go wrong.

When the banquet reached its climax, the dancers danced gracefully, and the hall was filled with the sound of clinking glasses, creating a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.

Zheng Xiyan sat at the top, watching with interest, with a bright smile on her face.

Suddenly, Concubine Yi felt a stomachache. She covered her stomach and felt very unwell. Her face turned pale. "Concubine Yi! What's wrong with you?" Caiwei, who was beside her, looked nervous when she saw this.

Concubine Yi gritted her teeth and spoke with difficulty: "I...I feel a little unwell."

They soon attracted Xiao Xuanchen's attention, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Concubine Xian felt something was wrong and was startled. She turned around and asked, "Is Concubine Yi feeling unwell?"

"Concubine...Concubine..." Concubine Yi's face looked very bad.

Zheng Xiyan said at this time: "Someone, call the imperial physician here immediately."

The Empress Dowager also agreed, "The Queen is right. Hurry up and call the imperial physician to send Concubine Yi to the side hall."

"Yes!"

Two palace maids helped Concubine Yi to stand up, and all of this was seen by Murong Yue who was sitting in front of her. When no one was paying attention, she sneered and felt secretly proud.

As soon as Keren took a step, the master and servant fell to the ground together. Concubine Yi fell heavily to the ground, frowning, and immediately shouted in pain: "Ah? My stomach."

Everyone's eyes were drawn to her, and Concubine Xian immediately squatted beside her, "Jieyi Yiyu..."

The concubines stood up subconsciously, fearing that they would be implicated.

When Xiao Xuanchen saw this, he hurried down the jade steps, "Shao'er."

Concubine Yi was still conscious and grabbed Xiao Xuanchen's hand, "Your Majesty! The child, our child."

Biluo carefully helped Zheng Xiyan to stand up, followed behind the Empress Dowager, and when she came over, she saw blood flowing from Concubine Yi's body.

The Empress Dowager's face changed slightly, and became more and more gloomy. She was an experienced person and knew at a glance that this matter was not that simple.

Zheng Xiyan had anticipated what would happen today. She frowned and said solemnly, "Your Majesty! Send Concubine Yi to the side hall first! Go and call the imperial physician immediately."

Xiao Xuanchen lost his composure and directly picked up Concubine Yi and walked towards the side hall.

This shocked Zheng Xiyan, as he felt that Zhao Shaoxi was indeed different from others in his heart.

Everyone looked at each other, and everyone had something ulterior motive in their hearts.

The Queen Mother looked around at the people around her, looking annoyed, "What's going on?"

When something like this happened, the Empress Dowager would naturally first hold the virtuous concubine responsible. She was the one who organized this New Year's Eve banquet. "The virtuous concubine!"

Concubine Xian was panicked and immediately knelt on the ground, saying with great fear and trepidation: "Empress Dowager..."

Zheng Xiyan was slightly angry, her eyes turned slightly, and she said in a cold voice: "Why did Concubine Yi fall down just now?" Biluo, who was standing by, immediately understood what she meant, walked to the place where Concubine Yi fell just now, squatted down to check it out, and then replied: "Queen Dowager, Queen, there is slippery powder mixed on the ground."

As soon as Biluo said this, the hall suddenly became silent.

"How could there be such a thing in the Yaoguang Palace? Concubine Xian, you have always been cautious in doing things, how could such a mistake happen?" the Empress Dowager questioned.

The virtuous concubine replied with a look of panic on her face: "Empress Dowager, I don't know either, this..."

At this time, Zheng Xiyan noticed that the person sitting next to Concubine Yi was Concubine Li. Seeing that her expression seemed not right, she remembered what Wen Chongyi had said to her before, and she understood everything.

"Mother! Before the New Year's Eve banquet began, the palace servants must have cleaned carefully. Concubine Xian has been working diligently these days, and I have seen it all. Concubine Xian herself must not have expected what happened today." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice.

"The Empress is right, Her Majesty the Empress Dowager, I really don't know what happened. Before the New Year's Eve banquet, I ordered the palace servants to clean the place spotlessly. And Concubine Yi just felt unwell suddenly, so she got up. This..." Concubine Xian was not stupid. Concubine Yi had an accident at the palace banquet she had prepared. If the dragon fetus in her belly could not be saved, she would be the first to be implicated.

"Empress Dowager, Queen, I beg you to ask the imperial physician to check Concubine Yi's diet." Concubine Xian said in a deep voice.

The Queen Mother also realized something and said coldly, "Let the imperial physician check Concubine Yi's diet."

"Yes!"

Zheng Xiyan then said, "Mother! This slippery powder cannot appear in Yaoguang Palace for no reason. Someone must have brought it in on purpose."

Murong Yue was still a little panicked when she heard this, and quickly asked, "What does the Queen mean, is this someone doing this on purpose?"

"What did the Imperial Concubine think? Concubine Yi was unwell for no reason and fell down just as she was about to leave the table. This is too much of a coincidence!"

"Something that shouldn't be there appeared next to Concubine Yi's seat. Isn't this worthy of suspicion?" Zheng Xiyan stared at her sharply, which made her feel guilty, but she still stood there calmly.
