The concubine of Germany is as beautiful as a god [Qing wear]

In Yongshou Palace, the atmosphere was oppressive. The maids and eunuchs were silent like cicadas, each with their heads lowered, standing inside and outside the palace.

When Ma Guan arrived, Concubine Hui also arrived.Concubine Hui's expression was anxious and aggrieved, obviously unprepared for this matter.

"Sister Defei, what do you think happened to Concubine Niu suddenly? I just visited her a few days ago and gave her tonics to prevent miscarriage. Is she trying to deliberately fall on me?" Concubine Hui Can't help complaining.

"Sister, don't worry. It's not clear what the reason is, and it may not be related to the supplements you sent." Ma Guan sighed softly and comforted her.

"Hmph, she must have deliberately retaliated against me. I was not very polite to her that day, and she must have kept it in mind." Concubine Hui felt a little regretful, secretly thinking that she shouldn't have gone too far that day.

But she didn't expect that Niu Bi would resort to such means and risk her own child.

Ma Guan raised her eyebrows, and when Concubine Hui came back that day, she only said that Concubine Niu was indeed pregnant, but did not mention the specific process.She was curious at this moment, what did Concubine Hui do to Concubine Niu that day?

Seeing Concubine Hui's complexion was not good, she didn't ask any further questions, but said, "Sister Hui Concubine, let's go in and have a look."

Entering the bedroom, I saw Concubine Niu lying on the bed with a pale face, screaming "Ouch, Ouch", and an imperial doctor was administering needles to her.

The two didn't bother, and waited until the imperial doctor finished administering the needles before Ma Yuan asked, "Imperial doctor, how is Niu Concubine's condition?"

"Hui Concubine Concubine, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Niu are in stable condition for the time being, but their bodies are still very weak. I'm afraid it will take a long time to recover. The problem is a bit serious." The imperial doctor wiped his forehead sweat, to tell the truth.

"So serious?" Ma Guan frowned slightly, and continued to ask: "Can the imperial doctor diagnose what is causing it?"

The imperial doctor replied: "This...Wei Chen hasn't checked it in detail, but it should be that he has taken the wrong supplement, and it may be that the medicines have conflicting properties... Defei Empress, I wonder if I can ask Weichen to check the recent news of Niu Concubine. Used supplements?"

"Bring all the food Niu Niu has eaten recently." Ma Guan immediately ordered Niu Niu's maid.

Ming Juan, the palace maid next to Concubine Niu, said: "Empress Concubine De, there are only today's food and supplements left... The supplements have actually been eaten, and there are only some residues left."

"The residue is also fine, take them all." Ma Guan said.

She glanced at Concubine Hui indiscriminately. If there was really a problem with the anti-abortion supplements, Concubine Hui might be cheated to death by Concubine Niu this time.

She looked at Niu Concubine again, only to see that the other party was staring at Concubine Hui angrily, if not for her weakness, she might have jumped up and hit someone.

Ma Guan was puzzled, Niu Concubine did too much in this play, and always felt something was wrong.

Soon, Concubine Niu's maid brought today's food and leftovers, and the imperial doctor began to check them one by one, and it took a full half an hour to finish all the checks.

He looked at the residue, sweating profusely: "My ladies, there is something wrong with this tonic. There is a medicine in it that was wrongly grasped, which caused the medicinal properties to conflict. Fortunately, the effect of this medicine is relatively mild, so the empress Niu took it several times. There's something wrong with genius."

Ma Guan's heart skipped a beat. If there is no mistake, these supplements should be sent by Concubine Hui from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.She couldn't help looking at Concubine Hui, and sure enough, she saw her face was dark.

"It's impossible. I asked Imperial Physician Cao to watch over me at the time. How could there be a problem with the supplements?" Concubine Hui looked at Qiu Tong angrily.

Qiu Tong was taken aback, and quickly explained: "Go back to your mother, at that time, the slaves did go to the House of Internal Affairs with Imperial Doctor Cao, and the supplements were also prescribed by Doctor Cao, so it stands to reason that there will be no problems. By the way, the House of Internal Affairs Both over there and Cao Yuyi's side have the bills issued at that time, as long as you bring a pair of bills, you will know if there is any problem."

"Then why are you still standing there, why don't you hurry up and get the list!" Concubine Hui snapped, showing how annoyed she was.

"Hmph, don't pretend to be there, I'm afraid the House of Internal Affairs and Imperial Physician Cao have already been bribed by you. Concubine Hui, I don't think I have offended you, why do you want to hurt me like this? Last time you brought along Imperial Physician Cao Forcibly come to see me, and then I knew you had bad intentions, so what are you doing?!"

Concubine Niu, who had been watching coldly, finally spoke. She glared at Concubine Hui viciously, feeling unwilling.

Concubine Hui was also angry, and retorted angrily: "Concubine Niu, what nonsense are you talking about? If I want to harm you, would I use such an obvious method? Isn't this just asking for trouble for myself? According to this palace, it is you who messed up. Taking medicine, pretending to be like this on purpose, trying to harm Ben Gong, right?"

"I take medicine indiscriminately? Will I make fun of my own child?" Concubine Niu screamed in disbelief: "Concubine Hui, do you still have the heart to say such a thing?"

"Heh, don't think that I don't know. Not long after the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent the tonic that day, you invited an imperial doctor to come over again. Did you change the tonic at that time?" Concubine Hui stared at Concubine Niu coldly.

Concubine Niu was startled, she didn't expect Concubine Hui to send someone to monitor her.She asked the imperial doctor that day to check whether there was any problem with the tonic, and it turned out that there was no problem, so she took it with confidence.

That's why she was so shocked today when she suddenly had a stomachache and her lower body was red. She didn't suspect the tonic at first.

In fact, until now she has not figured out what is going on. Could it be that the imperial doctor she hired that day was also bought by Concubine Hui?

"Why, have you nothing to say?" Concubine Hui immediately gained the upper hand when she saw that she didn't answer, raised her chin and said, "Is it true that I was right by this palace? You must not have expected that this palace would know about it, right?"

"No, don't talk nonsense!" Concubine Niu finally came back to her senses and argued: "I invited the imperial doctor over because I was forced to be pressed to the ground by you that day. !"

"Really? Then do you want to call the imperial doctor you hired that day to confront him?" Concubine Hui was sure that she was lying.

Concubine Niu gritted her teeth. If the imperial doctor was invited over, wouldn't it expose the fact that the supplements sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not a problem at all?

"Don't dare to confront her? It seems that you really have a problem!" Seeing her like this, Concubine Hui couldn't help pressing her step by step.

"Confrontation is confrontation, I'm still afraid of you?" Niu Bi was furious.

Even if the supplements sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were fine at the beginning, but now that there is a problem, Concubine Hui can't get rid of it, so she is willing to go all out.

So Imperial Physician Cao, Imperial Physician Chen invited by Concubine Niu, and the steward of the House of Internal Affairs were all called over, and things seemed to be getting more and more chaotic.

Doctor Cao and the steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs both took out the orders issued that day, compared the two and found that they were exactly the same, which at least proved that there was no problem with the orders issued by Doctor Cao and the supplements given by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

It was Doctor Chen's turn, and Doctor Chen also said that he checked the supplements that day and found that they were all in compliance with the rules, and he also checked the pulse of Concubine Niu, and she was in good health at that time.

After the judgment of the three imperial doctors, it was finally confirmed that there was a change in one of the medicinal materials, but because the shape and color of the two medicinal materials were very similar, ordinary people could not tell them apart.

"That's strange, it means that the problem with the tonic came later." Ma Yu looked at Concubine Niu and said, "Perhaps it's time to check if there is something wrong with you, the people in Yongshou Palace."

Concubine Niu's eyes turned cold, she also thought of this matter just now, since the tonic that was sent at the beginning was no problem, then there must be a problem later, and if there is a problem later, it could only be because of the people in Yongshou Palace!

She coldly glanced at the maid and eunuch who served her, and angrily said: "Whoever did it, stand up, otherwise I will find out, and he will definitely die!"

All the court ladies and eunuchs suddenly fell to their knees, trembling with fright, begging for mercy.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, it wasn't done by a servant girl..."

"Slaves will never dare to do such a thing, please be careful!"

"If the servant does this, I would like to be struck by lightning."

"..."

None of the twelve people admitted it, which is also expected.

Ma Guan and Concubine Hui looked at each other, they didn't expect the matter to come to this point, now Concubine Hui's suspicion should be cleared.

To Ma Guan's surprise, Concubine Hui's smile seemed forced, without the slightest schadenfreude as imagined.

"Okay, if you don't admit it, you're all guilty!" Concubine Niu was furious, but her heart was cold. She never expected that it was the people around her who had problems.

"Empress Defei, please help me deal with these servants. If they should be punished, they should be sent to Xin Zhe Treasury, and if they should be sent to the Department of Punishment, they should be sent to the Department of Punishment!"

"Prince Niu, please forgive me, it's really not the slaves who did it..." The palace maids and eunuchs shouted for grievances in fear, filled with grievances.

Seeing the chaos at the scene, Ma Guan had no choice but to stand up: "Tell me, who can get access to these supplements?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally four maids raised their heads with tears in their eyes.

"Should only four slaves and maidservants have access to it." It was the palace maid Ming Juan who spoke.

Some of these four people are in charge of the warehouse, some are in charge of the meals, and some are in charge of the daily life of the concubine Niu, all of whom have access to supplements.

"Then the four of you are the most suspicious. Of course, the others are not without suspicion." Ma Guan first looked at the four court ladies: "Did you find anything abnormal during this period?"

The four maids looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally shook their heads together: "Master Hui, there is nothing unusual, everything is as usual."

Ma Guan also knew that there was probably nothing to be found out, because several days had passed, and unless there was something very special to make it memorable, it would be difficult to remember what happened a few days ago.

"Since this is the case, I can only send you to the Shenxing Department, and let the people there torture you."

"Concubine De, please spare me..." The four of them suddenly shouted in horror, their faces turned pale and their bodies went limp from fright.

"It should be sent to the Department of Shen Xing. Some of you must have played a trick! Hmph, I treat you well on weekdays, I never thought that you all want to kill my child!" Concubine Niu was furious. If you want to go crazy, everyone will find it suspicious now.She couldn't trust any of these hateful court ladies and eunuchs.

"Sister Hui Concubine, what do you think?" Seeing that Concubine Hui had not spoken, Ma Guan asked for her opinion.

Concubine Hui's eyes shifted and she said, "Just send it to the Shenxing Department. The people there are better at torture. I believe there will be a result soon."

Ma Guan nodded, and immediately ordered: "Come here, send these four people to the Department of Punishment."

She and the little eunuch brought by Concubine Hui rushed forward, grabbed the four maids tightly, and dragged them outside.

"Concubine De, please spare my life, Concubine Hui, please spare my life, Niu concubine, it's really not made by slaves, please forgive me..."

The four maids screamed in horror, but they were still dragged out.

It was not until the sound could no longer be heard that Ma Guan looked at the remaining eight people.

"Although your suspicions are not serious, it does not mean that there are no suspicions. If this matter is not investigated clearly, I will send you all to Xinzheku. Therefore, if you find something, you must tell it as soon as possible. Can do meritorious service."

The eight people lowered their heads, each of them looked worried, as if they really didn't know the slightest bit.

Ma Guan sighed secretly, this is very stiff, and it is a bit difficult to check.

She had heard that Concubine Niu was harsh on her servants, if the rumors were true, then every court lady and eunuch might be the murderer.Concubine Niu has made trouble to this point.

What Ma Guan didn't expect was that things made progress that night, a court lady named Zi Yan committed suicide by biting her tongue in the Department of Shenxing.

She only heard about it the next morning. The court lady was tortured the day before, and committed suicide that night. Before she died, she wrote a few words on the wall with blood to confess her crime.When the people from the Shenxing Division found out, she was already dying.

Zi Yan confessed to herself, and committed suicide in fear of crime, so this matter came to an end.

The other three court ladies were released, and each of them was boarded. It is estimated that it will take several days to recover.When I asked them about Ziyan, they all said they didn't know, because they were interrogated and locked up separately.

The matter was over here, and there was no need to investigate further, but Ma Yuan always felt that there was something wrong with it.If Zi Yan didn't commit suicide in fear of crime, then she would stick to her own idea, it was the servants in Niu's palace who betrayed her.

But now, she felt that there was a black hand behind the scenes, someone bribed Zi Yan to do this, and then forced Zi Yan to commit suicide afterwards.

Anyone who can do this must be a person with good hands and eyes in the harem, and the answer is ready to come out.

After thinking about it, Ma Guan went to the Palace of Yanxi Palace as he wished.

Concubine Hui was eating a popsicle, which was made by a maid under her hand, and milk was added in it, which tasted very good.

Seeing Ma Yuan coming, he immediately greeted with a smile: "It's a coincidence that De Fei's sister is here, today you are lucky."

As he spoke, he took a popsicle and handed it to Ma Guan.

Entering July, the weather is too hot, and Mayu will occasionally make popsicles for Yinzhen Yinzuo to eat, but Jingfu is still too young, so she only eats one or two bites each time.

"I received my sister's kindness, but I dare not eat this popsicle, otherwise my stomach will make a fuss." Ma Yu smiled apologetically. She has been pregnant for four or five months and dare not eat this kind of food that is too cold .

"Look at me, how did you forget about this?" Concubine Hui said annoyedly, and then asked doubtfully: "Why is my sister free to come to my place today? Come and sit down."

"I came here today because I want to say something to my sister." Ma Guan sat down beside her, and looked at the maids next to her. When Concubine Hui realized something, she asked the maids to step back.

"It's just the two of us now, you can say whatever you want." Concubine Hui looked solemn, wondering what Concubine De was going to say, and she was so mysterious.

Ma Guan stared at her for a while, and Concubine Hui felt a little uncomfortable staring at her, and then said: "Sister, did you do that thing?"

Concubine Hui's heart skipped a beat, and she asked vaguely: "What did I do, why can't I understand?"

Ma Guan had no choice but to cut to the chase and said: "Then I'll just say it, sister Niu did it, right? My sister bought Zi Yan and asked her to change Niu Niu's medicine, which caused Niu Niu to almost have a miscarriage. Afterwards, Zi Yan was forced to confess, and committed suicide in fear of crime..."

"Sister Defei, I regard you as my sister, but you doubt me so much, what on earth do you mean?" Concubine Hui interrupted Ma Guan's words rudely, and her face became gloomy.

"It's not interesting, I just want to know the truth. Where did Ziyan, a little maid, get the medicine with the opposite effect, and it hasn't been discovered by others? There must be someone with a lot of background behind her."

"Then why is it me? There are many people in the palace who can do this." Concubine Hui retorted unconvinced.

"Because my sister exposed herself. Before the matter was completely found out, my sister was sure that there was something wrong with the supplements. At that time, I felt that something was wrong." Ma Yu stared into Hui Concubine's eyes with a bit of regret, and guessed When it was Concubine Hui, she couldn't believe it.

She has known Concubine Hui for many years. In her impression, Concubine Hui is serious and stable, but her heart is not bad, and she hardly takes the initiative to harm others.The two of them took care of the harem together, and they cooperated very well every time. From the bottom of her heart, she respected Concubine Hui as her elder sister.

So she couldn't figure out why Concubine Hui did this.

"Just based on this, you say I did it? Concubine De, you are too arbitrary." Concubine Hui even changed her title, which shows how angry she is with Ma Guan?

Ma Juan gave a wry smile, and continued: "Of course it's not just this, but also my sister's emotional changes when I was in Yongshou Palace that day... Maybe my sister didn't notice it herself."

Concubine Hui's face was changing, she really didn't notice it herself, she always felt that she was hiding it well.However, her reaction further exposed the fact that she was the murderer.

Concubine Hui soon realized this, her whole body was like a deflated ball, a little slumped.

"I was fooled by you after all." If Concubine De was only bluffing before, then her reaction just now is a disguised admission.

"I just don't understand why my sister took such a risk to do this." Ma Guan was in a complicated mood, and Concubine Hui admitted it.

"You don't understand? That's right, you didn't break your leg, so how could you understand?" Concubine Hui sneered, and said angrily, "Concubine Niu caused me to break my leg, and I haven't been able to find evidence yet. How can you let me be willing to muddle through?"

"I've been staring at her for a long time, but it's a pity that I haven't been able to find a chance to make a move. This time I finally found it. Naturally, I will not show mercy. It's a pity that I still failed in the end. I couldn't get rid of her child, but She must have been terrified too."

There was madness in her eyes, and she whined and complained for a long time before Ma Guan understood the reason.

It was she who forgot that there was still this grievance between the two of them.At that time, both she and Concubine Hui suspected that Concubine Niu did it, and even the emperor suspected so, but unfortunately there was no evidence.

Although Concubine Niu was grounded for a while, there was no more severe punishment afterwards.Concubine Hui missed the whole hunt, and her leg had to be raised for several months before recovering. The pain was unimaginable to others.

"Okay, now that you know everything, are you going to expose me in front of the emperor?" Concubine Hui looked at Ma Guan with a mocking face.

"In my sister's eyes, this is how I am? If I were going to report on my sister, I wouldn't be here today. I just feel worthless for my sister. There is no impenetrable wall in this world. I'm afraid that this matter will be known by others again." .”

No matter whether it's close or distant, or the little friendship in her heart, it's impossible for her to report on Concubine Hui.

Hearing what she said, Concubine Hui's anger subsided a little.

As a result, at this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open vigorously, and a familiar figure came into the eyes of the two of them, both of them were taken aback.

"Your Majesty?" Ma Guan slightly opened his eyes wide, thinking something was wrong, why did the Emperor appear here?

"Your majesty?" Concubine Hui's complexion changed even more. Did the emperor hear what he said just now?

Kangxi stared at Concubine Hui with an ugly expression, and said sadly: "I didn't expect you to do such a thing, I really let me down."

"Your majesty, please listen to my concubine's explanation..." Concubine Hui was stunned, and the emperor knew everything.

"What else do you have to explain? Concubine Hui, even if you suspect that it was Concubine Niu who caused you to fall off the horse, and I have already punished her, why do you want to attack her child behind her back?" Kangxi angrily reprimanded with a cold face.

Before finding any evidence, he could not accept such a ruthless hand against Concubine Niu because of a guess.

Concubine Hui opened her mouth, for a long time, she couldn't utter a word of defense.That's right, the problem was that she couldn't find the evidence, but she was not reconciled, did she just break her leg in vain?

She suddenly looked at Ma Quan, and sneered angrily: "Concubine De, I really misread you. You just swore that you would not expose me. It turned out that you had made an agreement with the emperor. Fortunately, I used to treat you as a good friend." Sister, I didn't expect you to hurt me like this!"

"I didn't..." Ma Guan weakly defended, she didn't know why the emperor came here.

Kangxi sneered and said: "Concubine Hui, you have done something wrong yourself, why do you still have the face to wrong others? Concubine De didn't tell me about this. I went to Yonghe Palace and stopped by to see you. I didn't expect Just heard such a good show!"

Concubine Hui's face froze, was it really just an accident?Did Concubine De betray her?For a moment, she was ashamed, her face turned red and white, white and blue.

"Concubine Hui, what else do you have to say?" Kangxi glared at her angrily.

"Now, what else can I say? The concubine did everything, please be punished by the emperor." Concubine Hui smiled wryly, and knelt down on the ground with her knees bent. It was too late to say anything now.

"I think you have a good attitude in pleading guilty, so I will punish you for three months and deprive you of the right to control the harem. Can you accept the punishment?" Kangxi is showing mercy. After all, Concubine Hui has been with him for many years and has always abided by her duty.

"The concubine accepts the punishment, thank the emperor for his kindness." Concubine Hui's eyes turned red, and she almost shed tears.

The emperor wanted to deprive her of the right to control the harem, she was wrong after all.

Kangxi nodded, and then looked at Ma Guan: "You will be in charge of the harem from now on, and I am planning to promote you again."

The author has something to say: oh yes, it is finally time to make a noble concubine De!
