Chapter 371 Unwilling
She endured for many years before she finally killed the Concubine Yi who was of the same nature as her.
She hasn't even ascended to the position of concubine yet, and now there's another Bai...
Ning Zhaorong closed her eyes, then opened them again. She was so unwilling to accept this.
She also knew that she would never be able to get pregnant again, otherwise why had she been silent even though the Emperor had come so often over the years?
Now there is another woman who is similar to her, younger and more beautiful. What should she do in the future?
She knew too well how she could make the emperor stay with her for a while, she knew too well...
The Imperial Palace.
In Leshou Palace, Concubine Kangde leaned on the couch and listened to Zhima's reply.
"So it was really her?" Concubine Kang De laughed: "I have seen a lot of people, but it is rare to see someone who seeks profit and avoids harm like this."
"Master, you are absolutely right. At that time, she wanted to marry the Second Prince, and she tried every means to get close to him. Now she probably feels that the Second Prince has no chance, and she doesn't want her daughter to suffer with him. What she did was really ruthless. If this is not investigated, it will not only implicate the Shen family and Jing Zhaoyi, but also the Feng family." Zhima shook her head.
"What a pity! Even though the arrangements were thorough, the flaws were exposed." Concubine Kangde shook her head.
"Yes, she should never use Jiang Han's family slave. He is greedy for money, and it is impossible not to leave a trace. Now it depends on what the emperor will do." Zhima said.
"Hasn't the Feng family already submitted a petition to retire? What else can the emperor do? After all, there is still the friendship we had in the past. How about this, why don't I lend a hand?" Concubine Kang De sneered, "Since they are so eager to bring bad luck to the Feng family, why not let them bite each other."
"Their family treats Jiang Zilan as a precious thing. Why don't we let her take the lead?" Concubine Kang De laughed.
Zhima nodded: "Master, rest assured, I know what to do."
Concubine Kangde sneered. Jiang Zilan looked down on the third prince. He was very arrogant, so he should suffer a little.
It's raining in the palace.
This was half a month after the Feng family submitted a petition asking for leave from the old man.
There is still no final conclusion on the Shen family case, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this was a conspiracy.
However, the Emperor ignored the Feng family's memorial, which made the Feng family very nervous.
Those who should apologize have apologized, and those who should retire have said so. The Feng family now understands that the emperor thinks they have not retired enough.
Empress Dowager Feng in the palace was extremely anxious, but for the moment, she didn't dare to mention these things at all and just acted like an idle empress dowager.
She knew the emperor's plan, but she was even more afraid to contact the Feng family.
The Feng family has been pushed out now, and no matter how much or how little evidence there is, whether big or small, there is always some.
No matter what she did, she couldn't beg for mercy.
It is no longer the time when the emperor had just ascended the throne and had to remember her kindness everywhere.
Empress Dowager Feng understood after all that if she still remembered this favor, it would be gone.
"My lady, my master!" Madam Zhuang suddenly came in: "There is good news!"
"What?" Empress Dowager Feng's eyes lit up.
"Your Highness, when Empress Zhen Chongyi was walking outside, it started to rain, so she went to take shelter. The rain was so heavy that the two of them were probably not paying attention. She met Jiang Zilan, and that girl actually conspired with the palace maids to drug the emperor!"
"What? They want to poison the emperor?" Empress Dowager Feng was shocked.
"Where is that! That shameless girl wants to be with the emperor...she wants to seduce the emperor! She wants to be his concubine!"
Empress Dowager Feng was a little stunned: "What? To be an imperial concubine? She is the emperor's niece. Is this crazy?"
"That's what happened. Empress Zhen Chongyi caught them in the act. The palace maids and eunuchs who accompanied them heard it. Now they have been taken to the Empress. I think everyone has gone there." said Madam Zhuang.
"Let's go, and ask Empress Dowager Li to go with us," Empress Dowager Feng said immediately.
If this matter is confirmed, it will certainly help the Feng family.
If Concubine Kangde could find out vague things, Empress Dowager Feng could naturally find out too.
After this incident, it would be impossible for the emperor not to punish Princess Junyi. When the time comes, all the new and old grudges will be settled together.
The emperor was invited to the queen's place, and it was raining, so he naturally knew that something had happened.
The concubines also arrived.
Jiang Zilan knelt trembling all over.
"What's going on?" the emperor asked with a frown.
"Your Majesty...what I heard...oh, it's so disgusting, just say it." Zhen Chongyi really couldn't say it and pointed at her maid.
Jinque stepped forward and saluted, also with a hot face, saying: "Today, the master and I went to Luohua Pavilion to take shelter from the rain. The rain was too heavy, so Miss Jiang might not have paid attention. That's why we heard it."
She licked her lips nervously and continued, "It turns out that Jiang Zilan wanted to drug the emperor, saying... saying... "
"It's not that I don't have it, I don't have it!" Jiang Zilan interrupted Jinque, shaking violently.
The queen angrily said, "Drug? Go on, shut up!"
The former refers to Jinque, and the latter refers to Jiang Zilan.
Jiang Zilan wanted to scream again, but a maid covered her mouth and she could no longer scream.
Jinque said hurriedly, "It's... it's that kind of love potion. It's said... it's said that she spent money to find out where the emperor is. There are many empty places in the palace. As long as the emperor takes the potion and meets her again, good things will happen... Our master was terrified when he heard it, and arrested the two people on the spot. The potion is also here."
As he spoke, the young eunuch at the back handed a paper bag to the queen's men.
"How old is Jiang Zilan this year?" Shen Chuliu was really shocked.
"Your Majesty, Thirteen." Zizhu was also stunned.
It can be said that everyone was stunned.
It was also at this time that the two Empress Dowagers came in.
Empress Dowager Feng slapped Jiang Zilan without saying a word: "What a shameless thing!"
Empress Dowager Li's face also turned pale.
This kind of thing is ugly in itself. But it is not enough to just give the emperor drugs, this also involves ethics.
Although the emperor and Princess Junyi are only cousins, they are still very close.
To be honest, the emperor and Junyi County were mainly married, which was normal in that era.
But if anything happened with Jiang Zilan, it would be so embarrassing.
The emperor was so angry that he laughed: "My cousin's family is really well-educated."
"I really didn't expect this!" Empress Dowager Li was also very disgusted. If this matter were to get out, it would bring shame to the Qi royal family.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the eldest princess is here." Chusi came in and said.
"What is she doing here as a girl?" Empress Dowager Li frowned.
"This Jiang Zilan is the eldest princess's study companion. Maybe he is here to beg for mercy?" Concubine Qian said gloatingly.
Shen Chuliu looked at her lightly: "The eldest princess is the emperor's daughter, a princess of golden branches and jade leaves. How can you beg for this stupid person?" Then she stood up and said: "I will go out and take a look?"
The emperor nodded: "Go ahead."
Shen Chuliu went out. The eldest princess was a little uneasy, but her eyes were determined.
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "There is something going on inside. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for the princess to go in. Princess, is there something going on?"
