Reborn as King again

Chapter 196 Not a Fanwai: Deja vu

The story of He Wenliu leaving the cold palace to meet Li Mujing spread like wildfire in the palace. Now everyone in the palace, from the concubines to the inner prison, is in danger. Who can control him? Everyone only heard that Li Mujing was furious and beat him up. He was covered in blood, and was demoted back to the cold palace. A few days later, there was news that He Wenliu was also infected with the plague in the cold palace, and now the cold palace is also quarantined.

Since Li Mujing was unable to show up, the crown prince Li Yi acted as the supervisor of the country, so the ministers did not have to go to the early court, and the usual memorial documents were handed over to the inner supervisor in the palace and sent to the East Palace, but who knew that Li Yi was almost under house arrest in disguise. Under Zhou Ling's obstruction, the news was not released.

The Empress Dowager devoted herself to worshiping Buddha. Every time she went to visit Li Mujing, she was shut behind closed doors. She was so worried about her son that she didn't notice any changes in the palace. Apart from asking the imperial doctor about Li Mujing's condition, the Empress Dowager asked her to explain Buddhist scriptures to her at ordinary times. Master Jing Miao invited her into the palace to accompany her in the small ancestral hall to chant scriptures and Buddha, just to get Li Mujing to overcome this difficulty.

A few days later, Li Mujing's condition became more and more serious, and he fell into a coma several times, and he was afraid that he would die soon.When the queen mother heard about this, she almost passed out, and she couldn't afford to be sick, and she couldn't control the matter at all, so the whole harem fell into Zhou Ling's hands.

The Empress Dowager was so anginaed about Li Mujing that she couldn't get out of bed and couldn't be stimulated at all. Zhou Ling led all the concubines in the palace, the princes and daughters went to visit, but the Empress Dowager was unable to deal with it, so she dismissed them casually.

But everyone didn't know that coming to visit the queen mother was just a cover, and Zhou Ling had other more important things to do.As the concubines left the gate of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Zhou Ling suggested, "Let's go to Qianlong Palace to visit the emperor."

Although Li Mujing's temper became very irritable and he would drive out the people who came to visit, but since the queen had spoken, the concubines would not disobey. Anyway, being scolded and kicked out was the same thing.

To go from Cining Palace to Qianlong Palace, you must pass through the promenade of the imperial garden. Bypassing, you can reach Qianlong Palace.

Zhou Ling seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and asked curiously: "Did something happen here? It seems that I heard someone mention it when I first entered the palace."

As long as the concubines who have been in the palace for nearly ten years are present, their complexions suddenly change. They are old people in the palace. Naturally, they are very clear about what happened back then. The concubine had an accident here. She was pushed down from the hundred steps, rolled down the stairs, lost her six-month-old baby, and was finally thrown into the cold palace and died of the plague.

Why did Zhou Ling mention this suddenly? !As the instigator of that incident, Jia Wanru suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart. Her legs were a little weak. Fortunately, Prince Li Yi found out in time and hurried forward to support her, "Mother, be careful."

"Concubine Wan, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Ling turned his head and asked after hearing the sound.

Jia Wanru protected her swollen belly, shook her head and said, "I'm fine, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I'm a little tired."

"If you have a big belly, you should be careful. If something happens to you again, the emperor's condition will definitely get worse." Zhou Ling glanced at Jia Wanru's belly, with a hint of viciousness in his eyes.

Jia Wanru felt Zhou Ling's gaze, and shrank her body subconsciously. She was really afraid that Zhou Ling would do something. Now that something happened to Li Mujing, the atmosphere in the palace was very strange. Jia Wanru had to guard against it!

Li Yi, who has always been eager to protect his mother, stood in front of Jia Wanru, blocking Zhou Ling's sight. He said in a bad tone: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern. Concubine Mother, she will be fine."

Zhou Ling snorted coldly, and said with a nonchalant smile: "The crown prince really cares about Concubine Wan, so you have to support Concubine Wan well, the steps are very steep." Zhou Ling turned around and took a step. Walking down the stairs one step at a time, the other concubines followed behind.

Jia Wanru gasped, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Everyone has already walked down the hundred steps and started to detour to Qianlong Palace. Li Yi frowned and said: "Mother and Concubine, why don't we go, Father will understand." Fang also had lingering fears, that was the first time he had plotted against someone.

"It's okay," Jia Wanru smiled, reassuring Li Yi. There are only the two of them on the corridor now. Jia Wanru has a big belly, and it is really difficult to go down the stairs. Li Yi supports her to avoid accidents.

Zhou Ling walked forward slowly, with the other concubines and inner eunuchs following behind, everything was fine until the next moment, Jia Wanru's scream came from behind, "Ah————"

Everyone quickly turned around and saw Jia Wanru rolling down the hundred steps. Li Yi behind her turned pale. When he realized it, Jia Wanru had already rolled away.

"Mother Concubine!!" Li Yi yelled, and then flew towards Jia Wanru. He wanted to hold Jia Wanru, but the person rolled faster and faster, and finally Jia Wanru rolled to the bottom of the hundred steps before stopping. At this time, she Clutching his stomach, he rolled on the ground, in excruciating pain.

When the other concubines rushed forward, they saw a bright red on the ground.

Jia Wanru didn't pass out, she had to endure the pain in her stomach, and he could feel the child in her stomach spinning and turning around.The blood under the baby is also flowing non-stop, and the child can't keep it!

At this moment Li Yi also ran down the hundred steps. He put his arms around Jia Wanru and said anxiously: "Mother Concubine, Mother Concubine, how are you doing?! Don't scare me..."

"It hurts, my stomach hurts..." Jia Wanru panted intermittently. She grabbed Li Yi's sleeve and said, "My child..."

"It's okay, mother and concubine," Li Yi raised his head and shouted towards the inner eunuchs: "Why are you still standing there?! Hurry up and call the imperial doctor!"

But the inner eunuchs didn't move when they heard the sound, Ding Ding stood there, Li Yi said angrily: "Do you want to rebel?!"

"His Royal Highness, this sentence is what I want to ask you." The surrounding concubines made way, and Zhou Ling walked slowly.

"You...you..." Li Yi looked at Zhou Ling in horror, "It's you...you are the one who wants to kill my mother and concubine!"

"My palace?!" Zhou Ling seemed to have heard a big joke, "When your mother and concubine had an accident, this palace was far away, and everyone present can testify, but you, His Royal Highness, this palace Just a moment before the palace told you to support Concubine Wan well, but the next moment you actually pushed someone down the hundred steps?! Even if you were adopted by this palace, Concubine Wan is still your biological mother. If you do it so hard, you won’t be afraid Is there a thunderbolt?!"

"I didn't! I didn't push my mother and concubine!" Li Yi argued, he was just supporting Jia Wanru, but suddenly, somehow, Jia Wanru fell over like this!He didn't have time to catch it at that time!

How could Zhou Ling let Li Yi go so easily, "On the hundred steps, there are only you and Concubine Wan, not even an inner prisoner, who else is there besides you?!"

"I...I..." Li Yi couldn't argue with his words. He wanted to step forward to pull Zhou Ling and argue, but was stopped by Jia Wanru. She knew that Zhou Ling was trying to provoke Li Yi. As long as Li Yi did something, it would be disrespectful. The aunt's crime has been confirmed!

Jia Wanru was dying of pain, beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead, but she had to keep Li Yi, Jia Wanru exhausted all her strength, and excused Li Yi: "Empress, this...it's not about Yi The thing about my son is...it was the concubine who didn't stand firm and fell over..." At this moment, Jia Wanru had to say these words against her will. In fact, she felt that someone was pushing her behind, but there was no evidence, Zhou Ling All I can say is that the person who pushed her was Li Yi!

"Concubine Wan, a loving mother with many failures, you can't protect His Highness the Crown Prince like this." How could Zhou Ling give Jia Wanru a chance to excuse him, and only heard him say: "Everyone present saw it, it was His Highness the Crown Prince who pushed you you."

"You..." Jia Wanru was in so much pain that she couldn't say a word.

Zhou Ling smiled slightly, but the smile looked very distorted, "Osmanthus, tell me, have you seen His Royal Highness pushing people?"

"Respond to the empress's words, the maidservant saw it." The maidservant Osmanthus osmanthus replied decisively, "It was pushed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"What about the others, have they seen it?" Zhou Ling continued to ask.

"I saw it, the slaves (slaves) saw it..." The other eunuchs seconded one after another, and they all testified against Li Yi!

Zhou Ling turned around and faced the other concubines who were trembling and wishing they could disappear, "Did you see it? Is it the one pushed by the crown prince?"

All the concubines dared not speak, they all lowered their heads, wishing they could be transparent.

Zhou Ling was not annoyed, he casually called out names and asked, "Huo Xiuyi, have you seen the crown prince push people?"

Huo Xiuyi's face had already turned pale. It was obvious that the empress wanted to get rid of the crown prince and concubine Wan. She really didn't want to join in. "My concubine... I have recently suffered from an eye disease. I'm afraid...I'm afraid I didn't see clearly..."

"It turns out that's the case," Zhou Ling said in a pity tone: "The emperor likes your eyes the most. They say they are big and bright, piercing, and you can talk. Since you have eye disease, you can't get the emperor's eyes." I like it, so what's the use of it." Zhou Ling said, and glanced at the guard beside him, who was Zhou Ling's confidant, and he walked up to Huo Xiuyi.Huo Xiuyi was terrified and said, "You...what do you want to do?"

The guard grabbed Huo Xiuyi with one hand, stretched out two fingers with the other hand, and actually gouged out Huo Xiuyi's two eyeballs!Two lines of blood and tears flowed down Huo Xiuyi's face, it was too horrible to look at!

"Ah——" Huo Xiuyi screamed, covering his face and rolling on the ground.

The other concubines were all shocked, they didn't expect that Zhou Ling would dare to make a move, dare to make a move in public!Even if the emperor is terminally ill, he is still alive. Now that Zhou Ling is doing this, no matter how stupid he is, he will know that he is going to force the palace!

After a while, Huo Xiuyi passed out from the pain, and the eunuchs carried him away expressionlessly.

Zhou Ling turned a blind eye to this, and continued to ask: "Huo Xiuyi didn't see it, so who saw it?"

"Chenqie... Chenqie saw it..." A low-status beauty said tremblingly, she didn't want to die, she had no choice but to cater to Zhou Ling!

One person changed his words, and the other concubines followed suit, "I saw it, it was the prince who did it."

"The concubine also saw it."

"The concubine is also..."

Hearing a satisfactory answer, Zhou Ling smiled. He looked down at Jia Wanru with a victorious look, and said softly, "Do you feel that today's scene looks familiar?"
