Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Qinghai's inconsiderate response somewhat embarrassed Emperor Chongzhao.

Especially compared with Chen Duo, who kept muttering in his ear, it was really not good enough.

However, Emperor Chongzhao was unwilling to slap himself in the face in front of outsiders, and when he heard Wang Xifeng speaking up for him, he felt a little relieved.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he sternly scolded, "Did you hear that?! Do you think you can become the chief eunuch of my Ministry of Internal Affairs just for fun?"

Only then did Qinghai really lower his head and ask for punishment.

"This time I am also teaching you a lesson! Why don't you go and join Liu Shang and Chen Duo to investigate the origin of the murder weapon?"

Emperor Chongzhao raised it high and lowered it gently.

Wang Xifeng stared at him for a long time before she turned her head away, patting her chest in anger. She let out a breath, then turned her face back and forced a fake smile:

"Your Majesty cannot be without someone by his side, so it would be better for Eunuch Qing to stay by his side.

"Why not let the people who are currently in charge of the Palace Bureau and the Palace Bureau investigate? They are in charge!"

Emperor Chongzhao couldn't hold back any longer, so he glared at Qinghai fiercely, then ordered Chen Duo: "Go and call Xia Shouzhong, he's well-known in the palace."

Chen Duo glanced at Wang Xifeng's expression, nodded his head in agreement, and stepped back.

"It is clear that Miss Xie was instigated by someone to specifically target the Empress. Your Majesty must hold the Xie family accountable!"

Wang Xifeng added a few more words to completely remove Empress Mo from the matter, and then leaned over and whispered some private words.

"The Queen has been recovering from her injuries since last year, and this is her first time out today. She can't threaten anyone, so how could there be a trap specifically targeting her?

"This is obviously not directed at the Queen, but at our Brother Tao!

"What's particularly abominable is that at the same time, there are also people from Concubine Rong's side who want to take advantage of the situation!

"Besides us and Ke, who is a girl, His Majesty only has these two bloodlines now. How come he has calculated everything in this game?!

"Your Majesty, do not let this person behind the scenes go lightly!"

Emperor Chongzhao's face was gloomy: "You don't need to tell me, I understand!"

Lin Ruhai, who had been standing by as a background figure, didn't say a word - he was considered an outsider, and logically speaking, when something happened in the palace, he shouldn't have followed and should have avoided suspicion.

But at today's flower party, his beloved daughter Lin Daiyu is also among them!

I imagine his lovely daughter would be terrified seeing such a bloody scene.

Lin Ruhai had already begun to resent Wang Xifeng for being too nosy by bringing Lin Daiyu into the palace to be Princess He Ke's study companion!

But after entering, he found that Princess Zhai had already hugged the two little girls tightly in her arms and hid in the corner of the hall. She was neither out of the sight of the guards nor too close to the bloody scene.

Although the two little girls were trembling and their eyes were red, it was obvious that nothing serious was happening to them.

When he came in, Lin Daiyu even saw him and struggled from Lady Zhai's arms with bright eyes, wanting to run over, but he stopped her with a slight shake of his head.

At this moment, hearing Wang Xifeng muttering that Emperor Chongzhao must severely punish the mastermind behind the scenes, she suddenly became a little annoyed and gritted her teeth in hatred:

"good!

“This game is too vicious!

"The Empress's flower show is for the young ladies of each family to meet their future mothers-in-law. Now, the women in Wangxiantai are either imperial decrees or future imperial decrees!

"Why did they create such a tragic and cruel situation? If a few people were really frightened and sick, and the news spread out of the palace, wouldn't it make the harems of our imperial officials uneasy?!"

Emperor Chongzhao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I have just ascended the throne, and my father has just started to recuperate, so even if some people are ready to make a move, I cannot bear to start a massacre..."

"What's the point of being intolerant, Your Majesty? Some people are shameless even when you give them face! If you tolerate them, you are tolerating evil!

"Those who deserve to be killed must be killed!" Wang Xifeng just followed Lin Ruhai's gaze and found that the two little girls were trembling in the arms of County Master Zhai. She was immediately furious!

Dare to scare the children, this is absolutely intolerable!

Emperor Chongzhao was surprised to hear her and Lin Ruhai's sudden temper tantrums, so he looked over and saw Zhai Zhao holding the two children and comforting them.

He was immediately annoyed: "He Ke has practiced martial arts since he was young, and was taught by the imperial concubine to climb trees and houses, play with cats and catch birds every day. He is already very brave.

"I was actually so frightened! You can see how horrific the scene was!"

Okay, now that we have found enough excuses, we can start the operation!

Wang Xifeng felt relieved.

While the emperor and the imperial concubine were talking, the imperial physician came in and reported: "The queen was just frightened, nothing serious. Take a tranquilizing soup for two days and rest.

"That young lady from the Xie family was also very lucky. Although the knife pierced her lower abdomen, it did not cause excessive damage to her stomach and intestines.

"The bleeding has stopped now, and he didn't choke much from drowning, so it's not a big deal.

"I think he will wake up in two hours. After a month or two of rest, there won't be any problems left..."

Before the doctor finished speaking, Wang Xifeng looked at him suspiciously and asked, "How is it possible? She is a girl in the boudoir, and she is determined to use her life to frame the queen. How can she not let herself die? She will be healed in one or two months!?

"Doctor, have you carefully checked whether she has practiced martial arts? Are there any traces on her finger joints, palms, etc.?"

The imperial physician nodded with a smile: "Just as the Imperial Concubine expected, this Miss Xie has calluses on her knuckles and palms. She looks frail, but her bones and muscles are very strong."

So he actually practiced martial arts?

Wang Xifeng sneered, "It seems that I was right to gag the second wife of the Xie family and detain her earlier!"

Emperor Chongzhao was stunned: "You gagged Qiu... and tied her up?"

"Yes!" Wang Xifeng said confidently, "She didn't even know her daughter had fallen into the water. She didn't cry until her daughter was fished out. But she couldn't even squeeze out a tear!

"If I don't tie her up, who else should I tie up?!"

Emperor Chongzhao looked at her helplessly: "After all, she is a lady of honor..."

"Who do I care who she is?! The Queen had just recovered from a serious injury, and she was weak and frightened by Miss Xie;

"If it wasn't for the female guard that the Grand Emperor had given to He Ke to rush over and hug her, the Empress would have nearly fallen off the platform!

“This is assassination, this is treason!

"Don't say she's just a concubine of a Beijing guerrilla. Even if she was a Beijing guerrilla herself standing here, I would still arrest her!"

Wang Xifeng looked at Emperor Chongzhao angrily, "This is my way of saving you and stabilizing the situation!

“Your Majesty doesn’t want to praise me or reward me, but instead wants to scold me. Then Your Majesty should handle this matter yourself!

"I do not care!"

As she spoke, Wang Xifeng stood up and called out to He Ke, "Come, girl, follow the county lady. Let's go back to the palace and have some calming soup!"

He is really going to give up!

Emperor Chongzhao was speechless, smiled bitterly, stood up himself, pulled her and pressed her down on her seat: "A lady of the first palace, if you leave, what shall I do?"

But he turned around and kindly instructed He Ke who was striding over: "That's right, there is nothing for you two girls to do here, go back and rest first.

"Thank you, County Lady. Please comfort the two children."
