When I opened my eyes, Zhen Huan knelt in front of me and had a miscarriage

"The Queen is really so arrogant, but I don't understand what she means. What does Caopin's death have to do with me?"

The queen also did not lose any of her authority, "Take Qin Nuo."

Qin Nuo was escorted up by several eunuchs.

He kept crying and was even kowtowing when he came up.

"Please forgive me, Madam, please forgive me."

"Qin Nuo, tell us what happened today again." The queen said solemnly.

Nian Shilan then slowly stood up, then walked towards Qin Nuo and gently lifted her head up, "Qin Nuo, you go ahead and talk."

Qin Nuo's shoulders trembled, and he raised his head timidly, looking into the determined eyes of the person in front of him.

She cried, "Empress Hua, I deserve to die. Yesterday, Aunt Huichun took me to the alley and stuffed a package into my hand, telling me to put it in your side hall. If I succeed, I can be reinstated as a concubine!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Especially the queen.

Jianqiu was the first to react, and kicked Qin Nuo without hesitation, "How dare you, you little dog servant, slander the slave of the Central Palace."

"slander?"

"I didn't, I didn't dare, I was blinded for a moment, so I agreed to Aunt Huichun."

Qin Nuo fell to the ground, obviously seriously injured by the kick.

Upon hearing this, Huichun immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Empress, I didn't do that. Qin Nuo is slandering me. I just brought the evergreen to her and asked her to look for similar herbs in Concubine Hua's palace. I definitely didn't slander Concubine Hua as she said!"

The queen obviously didn't expect that Qin Nuo would be so bold as to bite back.

At this time, Qi Yuebin behind him said.

"You are talking at the same time, and I am talking at the same time. Who should I believe? Huichun, do you have any witnesses? If there are no witnesses, it may be difficult to conclude this matter."

The queen's eyes were cold, "Concubine Duan, do you mean that my subordinates will lie?"

Nian Shilan narrowed her eyes slightly and stood in front of the queen, her majesty was no less than hers.

"So what the Queen means is that the people in this palace will lie?"

The two stood opposite each other.

For a moment, the hall was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard.

Nian Shilan's eyes were sharp, and her deep pupils were filled with warm anger.

No one dared to speak at this time.

Only Qi Yuebin spoke again in a soft voice, "Your Majesty, you misunderstood my meaning. I was just thinking that if there is no certainty at this time, there is really no need for the Queen to be angry. You can just leave it to the Ministry of Punishment to deal with it."

Nian Shilan chuckled, "What Concubine Duan said is absolutely right. Who is true and who is false is easy to tell. I have been bored in the palace these past few days, and suddenly I remembered the miscarriage of Noble Lady Fucha a few years ago."

When the queen mentioned this, her eyebrows twitched slightly.

"Hua Fei, what do you mean? The two things are totally unrelated, why did you suddenly bring it up?"

Nian Shilan lowered her head, a cunning light flashing in her eyes.

"Why did the cat in the Queen's palace suddenly get angry and pounce on people? And why did it only pounce on Noble Lady Fucha? Is there something different about Noble Lady Fucha and other concubines?"

She spoke slowly.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan also fell into deep thought.

What happened back then was really an accident, but Concubine Duan had talked to her about it briefly later.

I couldn't figure it out at first, but now with Nian Shilan's guidance, I understood it instantly.

The spices that Noble Lady Fucha used were given by the Emperor himself; no other concubine had them!

At this time, Concubine Qi was obviously still confused, "What do you mean by this? Are you saying that cats are spiritual and only pick on pregnant concubines?"

"In the past, the Emperor gave Concubine Fucha a special secret powder, which she carried with her every day. Cats are very sensitive to scents, and if someone trains them for a few days, they can make them pounce on people."

Nian Shilan spoke word by word, and the original dark plan was now revealed in the open.

The silk handkerchief in An Lingrong's hand was almost torn by her nervousness.

This action was seen entirely by Zhen Huan.

The Queen raised her chin, "Hua Fei, what do you mean?"

Nian Shilan smiled and bowed, "I don't mean anything. I just thought that since the Ministry of Punishment wants to interrogate, why not let it be interrogated together? It is also a mystery in my mind. Also, Concubine Fang, who lived in Suiyuxuan at the time, suddenly had a miscarriage. This matter is also quite strange. Why not investigate it at once?"

Since the queen is holding on to the past, she might as well hold on to the evil things the queen did in the past.

Anyway, we're all covered in blood. The worst that can happen is that we'll hurt the enemy by a thousand and lose eight hundred of our own.

Huichun is the Queen's most personal maid after Jianqiu, and she knows a lot of things.

If he is tortured in the Ministry of Punishment, he will definitely vomit some information.

But just 'a little' is enough!

She used to be very domineering, and when she made mistakes, everyone just took advantage of her to make things worse.

The queen, however, has a good reputation and always appears to be gentle and decent.

If what happened back then were to be discovered, it would be difficult for her to keep her position as Empress Dowager.

"Hua Fei, please stop diverting everyone's attention. We are discussing Concubine Cao's death, why are you talking about something else?"

The Queen spoke sternly, glaring at Nian Shilan.

Nian Shilan didn't get angry but smiled and stretched out her hand.

She was holding something in her hand, but others couldn't see it because she was holding it in her palm.

The queen was puzzled, but she also reached out and took it.

However, as soon as he placed it in his palm, his expression changed instantly.

That was the scented powder box that was originally used to train Song Nuts.

Why is she here with Concubine Hua?

But the queen was the queen after all, and her expression returned to normal after a moment.

She said sternly, "Today's incident was nothing more than the servants causing trouble. Huichun and Qinnuo insulted and disrespected them, and they will be punished with thirty strokes of the cane!"

Nian Shilan raised her arm slightly to block Qin Nuo behind her.

"Qin Nuo is someone the Queen Mother allowed me to punish. If there is any punishment, it will be my responsibility. The Queen Mother doesn't need to worry about it."

After she finished speaking, a half-smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The queen narrowed her eyes and said nothing in the end.

He walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

"Wait!" Nian Shilan suddenly spoke.

The Queen looked at her sideways, "What else does Concubine Hua want?"

Nian Shilan kicked Jianqiu in the abdomen at an extremely fast speed.

The high-heeled shoes and her intentional use of force directly kicked Jianqiu to the ground.

"Please, Queen, discipline the palace maids. If anyone disrespects my palace maids again, I will never let her off easily."

As she said this, the corners of her eyes slightly raised, and her deep eyes were like a cold pond.

He looked down at the people around him, emitting a strong sense of oppression.

After the lesson of Jianqiu, no one dared to be presumptuous.

All the palace maids knelt down one after another, "Yes, I, the servant Jin, will follow the instructions of Concubine Hua and will never dare to be disrespectful to the palace maids of Yikun Palace."

This time, the queen lost face.

The palace servants respected Concubine Hua but ignored her as the mistress of the imperial palace.

But she couldn't speak.

The queen left immediately.

The bustling Yikun Palace returned to its usual quiet state.

Qin Nuo never expected that Concubine Hua would stand up for her like this.
