Her voice was very sharp, and upon closer inspection, it trembled a little: "Noble Concubine Yi, you can't keep this pregnancy..."
Ever since Zhou Da Ying's face was injured, he became very violent, beating and scolding her. At first, he slapped her in the face, and now he even whips her.
She really couldn't bear it any longer, but she was the maid that Zhou had brought from the Zhou Mansion. Even if Zhou was banished to the cold palace, she had to follow him. Her indenture was still in Zhou's hands...
If she wanted to escape from Zhou Da Ying, she could only ask others for help, but she was just a slave, so who would be willing to help her?
Unless she has something that someone else wants.
This person is naturally the current Concubine Yi...
Jiang Zhili paused, glanced at the bracelet on her hand, and then looked at Bai Cui who was kneeling on the ground.
She hadn't expected Bai Cui to suddenly turn against her. This would have saved her a lot of trouble...
"How dare you speak ill of us and curse our queen!" Xiao Tao shouted angrily.
Bai Cui said anxiously, "It's not that I am speaking ill of you. I am telling the truth. Someone really wants to harm Concubine Yi!"
"You crazy bitch, shut up now!" Zhou Hui, kneeling on the ground, looked at Bai Cui viciously.
She could guess what Bai Cui wanted to say, but she never expected that this bitch Bai Cui would suddenly change sides!
When she thought about Bai Cui telling others about the bracelet, she felt panic and resentment in her heart...
Zhou Hui's face was ferocious and her eyes were bloodshot. She stood up and limped, about to pounce on Bai Cui.
She wants to tear Bai Cui's mouth apart!
Bai Cui's face was filled with panic. She kowtowed to Jiang Zhili repeatedly: "Noble Concubine Yi, please save this servant! Please save this servant!"
"Hold the man down," Jiang Zhili's eyes flashed with a glimmer, and he signaled the nanny beside him to control Zhou Hui again.
Two maids stepped forward and pushed Zhou Hui back to her knees before she could pounce on Bai Cui.
"Shut her mouth," Jiang Zhili saw the blue light spot on the map in his mind, getting closer and closer to Xunyu Palace.
Zhou Hui yelled in panic: "Jiang Zhili, you have no right to shut me up! That bitch Bai Cui has gone crazy, she wants to frame me..."
If Bai Cui revealed the matter of the bracelet, the Empress Dowager would probably not protect her...
Zhou Hui was extremely frightened. She struggled hard to break free from the nanny's grip, but she was powerless.
The two maids quickly blocked Zhou Hui's mouth and pressed her to the ground, making her unable to move.
Zhou Hui lay on the ground, her eyes fixed on Bai Cui, her heart trembling...
At this moment, a hurried sound of footsteps was heard, and Pei Lin, dressed in black, walked in from outside the hall.
He glanced coldly at Zhou Hui who was pinned to the ground, then walked straight towards Jiang Zhili.
"Why are you so disobedient? I just went out for a while and you disappeared." Although it was a reproach, it was also tinged with a hint of pampering.
Pei Lin stretched out his big hand and gently hugged Jiang Zhili's waist.
He was worried that Jiao Niang would get sore in the waist if she stood for too long.
When Zhou Hui saw Pei Lin's cautious movements, her eyes were almost spitting fire.
His Majesty has never been so cautious with her...
Jiang Zhili looked at Pei Lin. Her eyes were watery and red, and she looked extremely aggrieved.
"Your Majesty, someone wants to harm me and my son..." She held her belly, her tone filled with panic and fear.
Pei Lin's heart sank. He hugged Jiang Zhili's waist tightly, his cold eyes fixed on the embarrassed Zhou Hui.
Pei Lin's words were extremely cold: "Who wants to harm Zhizhi?"
He looked at Zhou Hui, which showed that he already knew...
The Jinyiwei had already handed him the results of their investigation into the bracelet. The bracelet from the Western Regions did contain a large amount of musk and a chronic poison that could cause physical weakness.
If women wear it for a long time, they may become infertile at best and die at worst!
When he learned from the Jinyiwei about the bracelet's venomous nature, he immediately wanted to give Zhou Hui poisoned wine! But he couldn't, as he had to consider the Empress Dowager and the Zhou family.
As an emperor, he should have weighed the pros and cons before dealing with Zhou Hui, so he temporarily put the matter on hold. However, he did not expect that it would be exposed today.
Thinking of Zhou Kun's arrogant behavior in the court recently, he felt that the time had come.
Bai Cui was so frightened by Pei Lin's imperial majesty that she trembled all over. She stammered, "Yes... yes, it was Zhou Yingda, Your Majesty, it was Zhou Yingda who wanted to kill Concubine Yi!"
After saying that, she began to kowtow hard. After a while, her forehead was broken and blood was stained on the ground.
"Mmmm..." Zhou Hui struggled desperately.
She wanted to argue with His Majesty, she wanted to stop Bai Cui from saying the next words, but she couldn't utter a single word.
Jiang Zhili had tears on her cheeks. She glanced at Pei Lin beside her, but found that he was also looking at her.
"Zhizhi, don't be afraid. No one can hurt our child!" Pei Lin stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the tears from Jiang Zhili's cheek.
Eunuch Li walked up to Bai Cui and asked sternly, "Who is it that wants to frame Concubine Yi? Tell us now!"
Bai Cui glanced at Zhou Da Ying who was pinned to the ground.
She said, "Yes, it was Zhou Da who promised. When Concubine Yi first entered the palace, Zhou Da was jealous of her favor, so she asked me to give her a blood-red bracelet from the Western Regions.
The bracelet had been soaked in musk for about five hundred days. It would be difficult for the wearer to get pregnant. Even if she was lucky enough to get pregnant, the fetus would not be saved.
Besides, the strange fragrance on the bracelet is also very harmful to the body. If you wear it for a long time, your physical body will be weakened, and over time, the fragrance will disappear and the jade will fall!"
