Chapter 607 Eastern Palace
"Your Majesty, please believe me. I wouldn't dare. I'm just an unfavored Gengyi. I can only survive by relying on Your Majesty." Sun Gengyi swallowed his saliva.
"Alright, alright. Your injury is serious. Let's ask the imperial physician to come and take a look." Mei Xiuyi stood up and supported her. "It's not that I don't believe you. I'm just afraid. Let's not talk about it anymore. The most important thing is to heal your wound first."
Sun Gengyi breathed a sigh of relief. Of course she didn't believe that Mei Xiuyi suddenly believed her words.
However, she felt that Mei Xiuyi had also thought it through and there was no benefit in sending her to the Internal Criminal Department.
He sent her back to her room and called a royal physician to examine her, and told everyone that she had fallen.
The imperial physician naturally said nothing.
"Master, this Sun is not honest." Fu Yue said.
"We can't send her to the Internal Criminal Division, and we can't try her." Mei Xiuyi smiled and said, "She has a bad fate. She has been lingering on for so many years. It's time for her to die."
Fu Yue's heart trembled: "Yes."
The next day, news spread that Sun Gengyi had died suddenly from drinking late at night.
Sudden death from drunkenness is simply unbelievable.
Mei Xiuyi sighed in Fengzao Palace: "I know that Sun Gengyi likes to drink. She is of low status and has never been qualified to come and go freely. If she likes to drink, then she likes to drink. But she got angry with the maid yesterday and smashed the cup and threw it up."
"Now I don't know what to do."
Before she could finish her explanation, someone else came from Changle Palace and said that Zhenzhu had hanged herself.
"Zhenzhu is the girl who had a fight with Sun Gengyi yesterday. Oh my God, what happened?" Mei Xiuyi's face turned pale.
Everyone looked at her, unable to tell whether it was real or fake.
The Queen's expression remained unchanged: "Let the Internal Criminal Department investigate."
"Yes." Although Mei Xiuyi looked nervous, she was not afraid in her heart.
She had already cleaned up these things, so what could she find out? The damned ones died, and it was just a good thing for them.
Sun Gengyi's body had to be examined after it was carried out of the palace. After all, she was a member of the harem. Even if she had never been included in the royal family tree, she could not die in obscurity even if she was a palace maid.
What's more, such a strange death.
However, the autopsy results showed that it was indeed due to drinking too much.
There was no poisoning and no other injuries. There was a wound on the knee, but it could be healed.
Many people in Changle Palace can testify to this.
The main thing is that this matter was resolved because it involved Qinglan, who had committed suicide before. It turned out that Sun Gengyi was involved with Qinglan, and it was related to the miscarriage of Concubine Yi that year.
However, there is no evidence, and Mei Xiuyi did take it off.
Nothing else was found in Changle Palace.
Shen Chuliu and Yao Chongyuan sat in the small garden.
In the past few days, the small garden has begun to look beautiful. Although it is only the beginning of February, it is the beginning of February in a warm place after all.
"Sun Gengyi never expected that she would end up like this." Yao Chongyuan shook her head: "She was such a glorious maid in front of Concubine Yi back then."
"Yeah, what did she want all these years? She never served as a concubine properly for a day, and now she died without knowing why." Shen Chuliu shook her head: "She was not properly included in the family tree, so she can't even be included in the concubine's tomb."
The emperor did not approve of this person from the beginning to the end.
It was just the last bit of face I gave to Concubine Yi back then.
"However, these three deaths in succession are related to Concubine Yi's miscarriage. I wonder why. Concubine Yi's case... is it really Sun Gengyi? What does she want?"
Yao Chongyuan frowned, "It's not like someone with no conscience would think of leaving oil paper on the sole of the shoe."
"No matter who thought of it, think about Concubine Qian. She accidentally pushed Mei Xiuyi down before, causing Mei Xiuyi to almost have a miscarriage. The Thirteenth Prince is in poor health. I'm afraid it's... the same thing." Shen Chuliu said.
"Ah?" Yao Chongyuan was startled and glanced at Chi Su and Zeng Chun who were standing beside Shen Chuliu.
"According to this statement, Sun Gengyi's death is likely to be..."
"They are all ruthless people. Just think about it, how much alcohol would Sun Gengyi have to drink to die? Even if no one was serving her, she would not know how much to drink by herself. How much would she have to drink to die?" Shen Chuliu frowned.
Yao Chongyuan was speechless.
"So, let's be careful and don't let the fire burn us." Shen Chuliu said.
Yao Chongyuan nodded and sighed for a while: "It's really amazing."
"It's amazing. If Concubine Yi had given birth to that baby, the structure of the harem would not be what it is now." Shen Chuliu said.
you do not say.
The two of them talked for a while and then stopped talking. They poured themselves some tea and chatted while drinking it.
In Jiyunxuan, Yeon So Won was not feeling well.
She started having morning sickness these days and was lying there listlessly.
"Master, I think I am somewhat competitive with her in this matter." Mu Yu said.
"Who should I fight against, her or me? She schemed against Concubine Yi, and then she was schemed against. She should wake up now." Yan Zhaoyuan touched her belly: "I'm pregnant, and someone can't sit still."
"This...you mean, the boss?" Mu He asked.
"Then I don't know. Be careful. Let's wait until I give birth to the baby before we talk about anything else." Yan Zhaoyuan said, "After some time, ask Goji to leave the palace."
"Oh, don't worry, master. I will make arrangements slowly so that no one will get suspicious." Mu He said.
Mu Yu poured some drinks for Yan Zhaoyuan: "You haven't been feeling well these past few days, but you can't miss out on the necessary meals, otherwise you won't be able to maintain your nutrition."
"Well, I'll listen to what Aunt Wu said."
Nanny Wu is the health nanny, and she is always there for pregnant concubines.
With such a big incident happening in the harem, the Queen naturally did not dare to hide it and told the Emperor everything.
After hearing this, Qi Yixiu looked at the results from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Punishments and said he understood.
He is still busy with court affairs.
Why would he care about a mere death of a person who just wanted to change his clothes?
But the emperor is not a fool and he knows everything he should know about the inside story.
There was no witness against Concubine Yi, and a few words of gossip could not convict anyone, not to mention that Sun Gengyi was dead.
This matter is like being buried.
But it is certain that she hated Mei Xiuyi.
Mei Xiuyi didn't care whether she hated him or not, but she was thinking about who hurt her.
Without much thought, I thought of Yeon So Won.
These three entered the palace on the same day and although they looked like sisters on the surface, they were actually a circle that hated each other.
The Sixth Prince is getting better day by day. Although the wound still hurts, he is young and heals quickly.
I don't feel bad at all. Just eat and drink well and I will recover naturally.
Every day, I would go to the Tai Chi Palace after class.
The princes were extremely anxious. Seeing how favored he was, how could they not be anxious?
But no one dares to act rashly.
At the same time, the emperor actually summoned the clan office to renovate the Eastern Palace.
The original site of the Eastern Palace was in the northeast area of the imperial palace, behind the Hall of Flowers and the Peony Garden.
