"My lady, you really have to go."
Along the way, Zi Su followed Shen Fu. As they were almost reaching the Wanshou Palace, she couldn't help but feel worried.
The Empress Dowager has always been mean to their queen.
If Her Majesty went to Wanshou Palace at this time, wouldn't it make the Empress Dowager angry? Now the Queen Mother is sick again, and who knows what she will do to the Empress when she sees her.
When Zi Su thought of this, she couldn't help but sigh: "Let's send someone to tell His Majesty."
"If anything happens, Your Majesty can come and rescue the Empress in time."
"No need." The sedan chair landed and Chen Fu waved her hand.
"Rumors are spreading like wildfire in the palace. Your Highness, coming here at this time would only cause trouble."
The matter between the Queen Mother and His Majesty has not been clarified yet, and Chen Fu is going to find out more.
It would be better if His Majesty didn’t come at this time!
Chen Fu held Zi Su's hand and walked down from the sedan chair.
There was a moment of silence in the Wanshou Palace, which was especially quieter than usual.
When Chen Fu came down, there was not even a eunuch guarding the door. She looked around and felt that something was wrong.
Chen Fu said nothing, but just held Zi Su's hand and walked in.
As soon as she entered the hall, Shen Fu smelled a faint smell of blood.
As you get closer, you can still see the bloodstains that have not been cleaned off on the stone steps.
Chen Fu looked at the bloodstain without moving. Zi Su followed Chen Fu's gaze and froze in fear: "Mother... Mother..."
"Is there blood there, madam?"
Thinking of what Xiao Guizi would report, Shen Fu couldn't help but tighten her hands a little.
"It's blood." The smell of blood in the courtyard was so strong that even if Shen Fu wanted to ignore it, it was useless.
Zi Su was so scared that she didn't dare to look anymore, but since people were already here, at least she didn't shout that she wanted to go back.
Following Chen Fu, the two were about to walk into the Wanshou Palace.
At this moment, there was a slight knock at the door.
Footsteps approached, and a nanny came out holding a copper basin. After seeing Chen Fu, the nanny's face turned pale.
: "Ghost!"
The screams shook the sky, and the nanny was so scared that she dropped the copper basin in her hand.
A whole bucket of dirty water was poured all over the floor.
Fortunately, Chen Fu pulled Zi Su back a few steps, so they were not splashed.
But there were still a few drops splashed on the tip of the shoe.
Shen Fu stared at the shoe surface, but before she could say anything, someone else came out from the inner room.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" The person in the inner room walked hurriedly, with obvious anger in his voice.
"The Queen Mother is resting in there. You are making such a big noise. Are you trying to kill yourself?"
The person in the inner room lifted the curtain and slapped the nanny at the door without saying a word.
But his palm had just been raised high, and when he saw Shen Fu standing at the door, he subconsciously put his hand down.
Then his knees softened and he knelt down straight: "Ghost...Ghost..."
This voice was even louder than that of the nanny just now.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Chen Fu was no different from seeing a ghost.
Shen Fu looked at the actions of these two people and guessed who the person who just died was.
Judging from the bloodstain at the door, it must be there that His Majesty killed Meng Siyao.
As for why His Majesty wanted to kill Meng Siyao, of course, Shen Fu didn't know yet.
"I'm Concubine Zhao." Chen Fu looked at the two people curled up on the ground, hugging each other: "Is the Queen Mother in there? I heard that the Queen Mother was ill, so I came here to comfort her."
"In...inside..." The nanny curled up on the ground, not daring to look at Chen Fu's face.
He just pointed inside with trembling fingers.
Shen Fu smiled and walked in.
There was a scent of sandalwood in the house. As soon as Shen Fu entered the room, she saw the sandalwood rising from the incense burner in the center of the hall.
It is said that the Empress Dowager likes to chant Buddhist scriptures. Today I see that it is indeed the case.
Shen Fu's eyes moved towards the incense burner. Before entering, I could already feel the fragrance becoming more obvious.
The smell is so strong that it seems to rush into people's hearts.
The Empress Dowager's belief in Buddhism is too obvious. The house is filled with these things, as if she is afraid that others don't know that she believes in Buddhism.
Shen Fu smiled.
"Your Highness, I am here to pay my respects to you, Your Highness."
Shen Fu didn't continue to walk inside, but shouted through the door.
The noisy noise in the room became quiet, and soon Madam Hu came out.
When she saw Chen Fu, her expression changed uncontrollably.
Nanny Hu's expression also looked somewhat ugly.
After all, Meng Siyao had just died, and now seeing Chen Fu again, she couldn't help but feel nervous.
These two people's lives are so similar.
A hint of panic flashed across Madam Hu's calm face, and she lowered her head to hide it.
Then he raised his head and looked at Chen Fu: "Empress Zhao, the Queen Mother is not feeling well and has gone to bed."
"If Concubine Zhao has something to do, please come visit the Queen Mother another day."
These two people are 70% similar, even she would be dazed for a moment when she saw them.
The Empress Dowager was so angry that she fainted. If the Empress Dowager saw it, wouldn't it be even worse?
"I know that the Queen Mother is ill, so I came here to see her."
Chen Fu had a smile on her face. She came here on purpose and she would not leave so casually.
"Mammy, you should go in and report it."
Madam Hu looked at Shen Fu.
She is a servant, and the person in front of her is a servant. I can't disobey Shen Fu's words.
What's more, Chen Fu was the noble Concubine Zhao, and she had the highest position among the concubines in the palace, so Madam Hu had to listen to her.
"Yes." Madam Hu sighed, lowered her head and went inside to report.
Inside the room, the imperial doctors gathered in a circle.
The Empress Dowager had just fainted. Fortunately, the imperial doctors gave her acupuncture in time and saved her from the coma.
But the Queen Mother was still frightened. Now she was half lying on the bed, her face pale.
Madam Hu glanced at the Empress Dowager, lowered her head and walked forward silently: "Empress Dowager..."
"What's the matter?" The Queen Mother lowered her head and eyes, her face as pale as a piece of paper.
"Empress Dowager, Concubine Zhao is here." Matron Hu lowered her voice.
"Zhao Fei?" The Queen Mother took a sip of the medicine. When she heard the word Zhao Fei, Shen Fu's face flashed subconsciously in her mind.
Her hand trembled, the spoon fell, and the medicine splashed all over her face.
Madam Hu hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, and then whispered, "If the majesty does not want to see her, I will send her away now."
The Empress Dowager probably doesn't want to see anyone at this time, and the person she doesn't want to see even more is Concubine Zhao.
If the Empress Dowager saw that face, wouldn't she be so angry that she would vomit blood?
When the Queen Mother heard the name Zhao Fei, Shen Fu's face flashed through her mind.
What followed was overwhelming hatred.
She clenched her hands tightly.
Thinking back to the time when she wanted Meng Siyao and Rong Qi to be her concubines, it was only because Shen Fu occupied too much of the emperor's favor.
She thought of letting Rong Qi enter the harem first, and then letting Meng Siyao share the favor, so she did everything she could to let these two people enter the harem.
But now, first it was Rong Qi, then Meng Siyao.
