"By the way, when I came in just now, I heard you guys were laughing and talking happily, but is there anything that makes people happy?"

In order to establish good relationships with An Lingrong and the others, Concubine Jing started chatting about family matters.

Looking at the six palaces, Concubine Jing herself has a gentle personality, and she has been taking care of Shen Meizhuang since she entered the palace and was assigned here. Everyone has a very good impression of her.

Therefore, in response to Jingpin's inquiry, Shen Meizhuang and others looked at each other and felt that there was no need to hide anything, so they told about Liu Bin's unconventional request to check Ping's pulse.

"Is there such a thing?"

After listening to Shen Meizhuang's narration, Jingpin, who originally had a smile on her face, gradually became gloomy.

Xianfu Palace is her territory. In her own palace, Jingpin must ensure Shen Meizhuang's safety at all costs.

Originally, Jingpin didn't have much feeling towards this imperial physician who took Shen Meizhuang's pulse on a daily basis, and thought that he was quite honest and dutiful.

But after today's unexpected incident, Concubine Jing suddenly became suspicious.

"In theory, checking the pulse of a concubine is done according to the palace rules. The result must be recorded on the pulse record every time, and then sealed in the Imperial Hospital so that it can be consulted when needed."

While Jingpin was explaining the palace rules, she murmured, "This situation with Imperial Doctor Liu is very strange to me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed slightly, including An Lingrong's, but the reasons behind them were different.

Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang changed their attitude because they knew that Liu Bin was assigned by Concubine Hua to deliberately set up a trap to harm them.

Although Jingpin had expressed her intention to form an alliance with them, they did not explicitly refuse. However, for some reasons, they did not tell Jingpin about this matter.

Now, Concubine Jing begins to doubt Liu Bin. Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang are of course nervous, for they are afraid that Concubine Jing will start a secret investigation. If they alert the enemy, it will be a waste of time!

An Lingrong's expression changed slightly, not because of this, but because she caught that Jingpin had changed her self-proclaimed name in that instant.

As the head of a palace, a concubine can live in the main hall and be in charge of the affairs of the palace. She can also be called "Empress", and naturally she can also use the title "This Palace".

However, Jingpin was kind and approachable, and she never put on airs in front of others. So, except to the palace maids and eunuchs, she usually called herself "I".

Just like when she was chatting with them before, Jingpin never said "this palace" once.

But when it came to Liu Bin, Jingpin suddenly changed the way she called herself, which invisibly revealed a change in her attitude!

An Lingrong keenly realized that Concubine Jing was not simply expressing her surprise and unexpected discovery to Shen Meiyu and the others. Perhaps, after Concubine Jing returned, she would arrange for someone to conduct a secret investigation.

"Madam, are you doubting this Imperial Doctor Liu?"

In order to verify her guess, An Lingrong did not hide it and directly asked Jingpin the question in her heart.

"good."

Jingpin was also very calm and said frankly: "I originally thought he was quite honest. Besides, he has always been the one serving Meizhuang, so the emperor let him continue to be in charge of the affairs of Cunjutang. But what happened today is not only against the rules, but also unheard of..."

Having said this, Jingpin's expression darkened a little.

When she was in the palace, she was a princess in Hua Fei's Nian Shilan room and had a low status.

Later, when the emperor ascended the throne, he began to confer titles on the six palaces. However, because she had been with the prince in his early years, she was given the title of concubine.

Over the years, Jingpin has always been cautious and kind to others, but never made an enemy of anyone.

But this is her way of survival, and it doesn't mean that Jingpin doesn't understand those things.

"Forget it, you don't have to worry. Since Mei Zhuang is in Xianfu Palace, I will definitely protect you."

After some thought, Jingpin felt that Liu Bin was becoming more and more suspicious. Perhaps he was really bribed or assigned by someone behind the scenes!

Turning around, Concubine Jing first comforted Shen Meizhuang, and then said that she would take full charge of the matter so that they would not have to worry about it anymore.

"My lady! You don't have to worry so much!"

Although Shen Meizhuang was touched by Jingpin's "sense of responsibility", she also felt helpless.

Being responsible is a good thing, but Jingpin is now a little too "responsible"!

They also knew that Liu Bin was not a good person, and they even understood that he was completely sent by Concubine Hua to harm them!

But - how can I tell this to Concubine Jing?

Let’s not talk about whether Jingpin will believe it or not. If she does, it would be fine. Jingpin is not the kind of person who would dig into the matter. As long as the person trusts her, she would not deliberately explore it.

But if Jingpin does not accept this explanation and does not believe what she and others say.

Shen Meizhuang couldn't think of how to prove herself. After all, there were so many aspects involved.

First of all, the relationship between Wen Shichu and Zhen Huan would probably be leaked, and then it would become that he and others took medicine secretly and played everyone like fools!

Even though all the blame will be directed at Concubine Hua, once it is leaked, there will still be endless troubles!

Shen Meizhuang thought about it over and over again, but still didn't know how to start the conversation. She felt overwhelmed by the horrible consequences.

"Ok?"

When Jingpin saw Shen Meizhuang suddenly spoke out to stop her, she thought she had something to say, so she looked at her leisurely.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, Jingpin got nothing but a long sigh from Shen Meizhuang.

This answer made Jingpin feel at a loss for words, so she comforted him, "I know you are worried about me, but don't worry, I have been in this palace for so long, how could I not know everything?"

Jingpin thought that the reason Shen Meizhuang stopped her was because she was afraid of offending people, so she immediately gave her a "reassurance pill", saying that she knew what was going on and she didn't need to worry about her.

"My lady, Sister Mei is certainly worried about you, but she is also afraid of alerting the enemy!"

Seeing Shen Meizhuang almost jumping up in anxiety, An Lingrong shook her head slightly at Shen Meizhuang and then chose to go on stage herself.

"How do you say this?"

Concubine Jing frowned and immediately shifted her attention to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong was not panicked at all, and said slowly: "Just as the queen said, the actions of this Imperial Physician Liu are really strange and suspicious. If he was really ordered to come here and was able to mobilize the imperial physician, the identity of the person behind him must be not low..."

An Lingrong deliberately paused after saying this, allowing Jingpin to make up a lot of nonsense in her imagination.

Indeed, I didn’t think of this just now!

Being able to reach out to the Imperial Medical Bureau, this person must be a person of high power!

However, the number of concubines in their emperor's harem is not large, and there are even fewer who hold high positions.

So, who will it be?
