pet queen [rebirth]

As soon as Emperor Xuan Cheng arrived, Concubine Yun stumbled up behind her. She saw the sixth prince lying on the ground at a glance, and rushed over: "Ruier! Ruier! Wake up!"

The maid behind Concubine Yun said in a panic: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and call the imperial doctor!"

Only then did someone react, and quickly ran to call the imperial doctor.

At this time, the sixth prince's nanny hurriedly arrived, and she couldn't help shouting: "The imperial doctor is here! The imperial doctor is here!"

He had already invited the imperial physician.

The imperial doctor knelt down, looked at the sixth prince seriously, and gave the sixth prince a few needles with a thin needle. The sixth prince spit out a few sips of water with a "wow", and woke up leisurely.

As soon as he woke up, he immediately cried loudly to find his concubine mother. Concubine Yun was so distressed that she hurriedly hugged him and shed tears.

The imperial physician turned around, knelt in front of Emperor Xuan Cheng and said, "Your Majesty, thanks to the sixth prince being rescued in time, otherwise it may be a disaster."

"Come here!" Emperor Xuan Cheng said angrily, "Let me investigate! Who dared to murder the sixth prince!"

Just as Xiao Qian was about to speak, the sixth prince's nanny suddenly knelt down: "Your Majesty, I have something to say..."

She looked at Concubine Yun, as if she had received a signal from Concubine Yun, and seeing Concubine Yun nodded, the nanny said: "This matter... this servant guesses, I'm afraid it's Concubine Shu's doing..."

Emperor Xuan Cheng was slightly taken aback.

Xiao Qian suddenly felt his sleeves being pulled lightly, he lowered his head, saw Su Mingmo leaning in his arms, and shook his head imperceptibly at him.

Xiao Qian suddenly understood that it might be Su Mingmo's doing something, so he didn't speak, just listened to the nanny say: "The birthday banquet in the evening has not yet started, and the maidservant and Princess Ning played with the sixth prince in the imperial garden for a while. The prince said that he saw a butterfly in the imperial garden, so the servants and concubine Ning accompanied the sixth prince to look for it, and according to the sixth prince's description, the butterfly was as big as a peach."

"The slaves thought that the sixth prince was just talking like a child, but the sixth prince insisted. Concubine Ning felt that there might be something weird in it, so she asked the slaves to pay more attention. If the sixth prince cannot be found at night, they must come back in time to report to the emperor."

It is true that the nanny was the first to report to Emperor Xuancheng just now.

Emperor Xuancheng looked back at Xiao Qian and Su Mingmo in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Where is Concubine Shu?"

"Report to the emperor, Concubine Shu has returned to the palace." A guard said.

"Call her over to ask questions!"

As soon as Emperor Xuancheng finished speaking, King Duan came out from behind the crowd in a hurry, knelt down and said, "Father! This must be framed by someone. Mother and concubine are kind by nature. Even trampling an ant to death would make me sad for a long time. How could it be..."

"Your Majesty," Concubine Yun came out and said, "It's my concubine's order that the nanny would say that. What happened today was the first warning issued by Princess Ning. It seems that it was Princess Ning who jumped down to rescue Rui'er first. Your servant The concubine is willing to believe what Concubine Ning said, just now at the banquet, only Concubine Shu, Prince Ning and Concubine Ning left behind Ruier, if His Majesty let Concubine Shu come to confront the concubine, ask whether it is yes or not I will know."

Concubine Yun is the biological mother of the sixth prince, so she definitely would not want the sixth prince to have trouble, and now she is willing to speak out because she wants to protect the sixth prince.

Emperor Xuancheng gave Wang Duan a serious look, and said: "My concubine is right, if you ask me, you will know."

Concubine Shu was soon helped out by a maid. She was still stroking her stomach. Seeing so many people standing by the pond, she said in a panic, "What happened?"

"Concubine Shu," Concubine Yun said, "Is it related to you that the Sixth Prince fell into the pond?"

The sixth prince had just been carried away by the nanny. He fell into the water at night and was blown by the wind. It was so cold that people shivered. Fortunately, an attendant brought two clean outer robes to Xiao Qian, so Xiao Qian gave them to him first. Su Mingmo wrapped it up.

Without the presence of the sixth prince, Concubine Yun spoke more wantonly: "This is the only way to go to the harem, if it wasn't for you, why did Rui Er just get up to change clothes on the front foot, and you were in a hurry to go back to the palace on the back foot?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Concubine Shu's eyes widened, "What does this have to do with me?"

"Stop pretending!" Concubine Yun sneered.

Concubine Shu hurriedly knelt down, and said to Emperor Xuancheng: "Your Majesty, the concubine did not know about this matter. It was only when the guards came to invite the concubine to find out what happened to the sixth prince. If it is true as Concubine Yun said, the sixth prince is Going to change clothes is not the same way as the concubine! The direction the sixth prince is going is completely different from the imperial garden, not to mention, with so many attendants following behind him, has anyone seen the concubine bring the sixth prince to the royal garden? garden?"

"There are some people with ulterior motives, the emperor can investigate again..." Concubine Shu pointedly said.

"Concubine Shu doesn't need to bring the sixth prince to the imperial garden in person. The sixth prince is young, so he is naturally full of curiosity about things he has never seen before..." Su Mingmo, who was in Xiao Qian's arms, suddenly said, "For example, like a peach. Big butterfly."

All eyes fell on him.

Su Mingmo struggled to get up from Xiao Qian's arms, coughed softly, knelt down in front of Emperor Xuan Cheng and said, "Your Majesty, Ming Mo accompanied the sixth prince to play in the imperial garden in the evening, and the sixth prince said he saw a butterfly as big as a peach." At first, the nanny didn't believe it, and the sixth prince cried anxiously, Ming Mo felt that no matter how childish the sixth prince was, he would not fabricate such a bizarre thing out of thin air, so he kept his eyes peeled."

"Just then Mingmo saw the sixth prince leaving the table, so he followed Ning Wang. Fortunately, Ning Wang found out in time and knew that the sixth prince had fallen into the water. Otherwise, the sixth prince might be in trouble today."

Su Mingmo didn't fully take credit, and even turned his head to look at Xiao Qian.

"Blood!" Duan Wang said from the side, "Does Princess Ning have evidence?"

Emperor Xuan Cheng also frowned and said, "Which of you has ever seen a butterfly like a peach? Come on, search all over the imperial garden to see if there is such a thing."

Several guards took orders and left, but after a while, a guard came over and said, "Your Majesty, I just searched the path leading to the harem from the Royal Garden and found this!"

The guard held a paper butterfly in his hand and presented it to Emperor Xuan Cheng.

Emperor Xuancheng took the butterfly and looked at it.

The butterfly is made of candle-red oiled paper, and its surface is so smooth that it can be seen clearly even at night.

Emperor Xuancheng's expression was indistinguishable.

"Impossible!" Concubine Shu immediately said, "How is it possible, Your Majesty! Someone must have framed my concubine!"

"My lord..." Siqing quietly came to Xiao Qian's side and called him.

Xiao Qian immediately understood that Siqing should have found this butterfly somewhere else, and without anyone noticing, threw it on the path that Concubine Shu must pass.

Anyway, if people don't know unless they do nothing, Concubine Shu's suspicion cannot be shaken off. As for who Emperor Xuan Cheng will believe in the future, it depends on what he thinks.

After a palace banquet ended, Concubine Yun accompanied the sixth prince to rest, Concubine Shu was left behind, Xiao Qian and Su Mingmo went to change into clean clothes.

Outside Mingxin Hall, Xiao Qian and Su Mingmo waited together for a while, saw Li Youde coming out from inside, and said to Xiao Qian: "Prince Ning, Your Majesty invites you in."

Xiao Qian turned his head and said to Su Mingmo: "You stand in a place sheltered from the wind and wait, be careful not to catch a cold."

Su Mingmo covered his mouth and coughed, and said: "My lord, there are many times, let's go."

Li Youde said: "Princess Ning, I will find you a place to rest, you follow me."

Su Mingmo followed Li Youde and left.

When Xiao Qian entered the Mingxin Hall, he happened to meet Concubine Shu coming out of it, and the two looked at each other.

Concubine Shu's maid had been waiting outside, seeing her coming out, she rushed to meet her and pick her up.

Xiao Qian walked into the hall and knelt down. Emperor Xuan Cheng seemed tired, rubbed his forehead and said: "Qian'er, get up, I want to ask you, what do you think about this?"

Xiao Qian laughed: "I dare not make judgments."

"I know that you must have some opinion about me again. If I really doubt you, I won't let you talk here tonight."

"I just feel at a loss..." Emperor Xuan Cheng raised his head, looked at the night sky outside the window of Mingxin Hall and said, "Is Jiangshan Sheji really that important to them?"

Xiao Qian really wanted to answer, so he endured it, but gave up.

If it weren't for Emperor Xuancheng's eyes, Jiangshan Sheji was already much more important than kinship, those people would not follow suit and do many stupid things in order to seize the throne.

"I will investigate this matter again. If there is sufficient evidence, I will definitely not let the person who murdered the sixth prince go."

The implication of Emperor Xuan Cheng's words is that Su Mingmo's oral evidence and the candle-red paper butterfly are not enough to convict Concubine Shu.

That means he intentionally let Concubine Shu go, the evidence has already reached this point, if he really wants to investigate, there is something that Emperor Xuancheng cannot find out.

Xiao Qian thought to himself, he should be glad that the sixth prince is still young, otherwise he might have resentment towards Emperor Xuancheng, his father.

Emperor Xuancheng sighed, and said: "Qian'er, father is getting old, and I always feel that my health is getting worse. I didn't expect you to be close to Yuan Hua, but Rui'er is still young. He has never had any ill intentions towards you, and he still likes Princess Ning so much... Since you and Princess Ning are willing to come out to save Ruier's life today, can you promise me that if I am really gone in the future, you can help Ruier more Son...at least protect him for me..."

Xiao Qian was silent for a long time, and said: "Your subjects should obey the teachings of the emperor."

Xiao Qian came out of Mingxin Hall, but Su Mingmo was still standing outside the hall and waiting.

There is an open space outside the Hall of Mingxin, the open hall wind can make people tremble, and Su Mingmo soaked in water at night, so he didn't even have time to take a hot bath.

Xiao Qian went over, took off his outer robe, wrapped it around Su Mingmo's body and said, "Before I went in, I heard Li Youde said to take you to the side hall to rest, why are you still standing here?"

Su Mingmo wrapped Xiao Qian's clothes, and said, "Zi Yu is worried, I still want to wait here."

Xiao Qian sighed, ignoring that this was outside the Mingxin Palace, he stretched out his arms to hold him in his arms, and said to him: "Zi Yu, this king... only you in this life."

No, even in past and present lives, Su Mingmo is probably the only one who is willing to stay by Xiao Qian's side in the end.

Su Mingmo stretched out his hand to hug him back, and comforted him: "No, with the prince's knowledge, Ziyu believes that there will be more people around you who are willing to follow you in the future."

What the two said was not the same thing, Xiao Qian was silent for a moment, and said: "Compared with them, I only need you alone."

Su Mingmo finally came to his senses, he was startled, his face gradually turned red.

Seeing his reaction, Xiao Qian was delighted in his heart, but felt that the atmosphere was just right, he lowered his head slightly, and was about to kiss his lips, when he suddenly heard a light cough coming from beside him.

"Prince Ning," it was Li Youde, he said from the side, "Your Majesty has allowed you and Concubine Ning to return to the mansion, it's getting late, go back and rest."

Xiao Qian: "..."

Su Mingmo still lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look at Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian smiled slightly and said, "Okay, Ziyu, let's talk in the carriage."
