Concubine Rou didn't expect that the palace maid beside her was actually Concubine Shu's woman.
Hong'er was dragged away for execution.
She went to find Wu Mi specifically to ask a question.
As the mistress of the first palace, Wu Mi naturally gave her this convenience.
"When I was in the prince's mansion, I had no conflicts with Concubine Shu, and it was the same after I entered the imperial palace. Why did she want to keep you with me, what did she want to do..." Concubine Rou stared at Hong'er, her eyes full of confusion.
A trace of guilt flashed across Hong'er's face.
Roupin treated her very well, treating her like a trusted maid. She felt guilty towards Roupin, and before she died, she was willing to tell her the truth.
"When the Concubine Shu was pregnant, the princess selected a group of girls from good families to serve as concubines in the palace. The Concubine Shu was afraid that she would give birth to a daughter while someone else gave birth to a son, which would threaten her position, so she arranged traps for several favored concubines..."
"Once someone gets pregnant, then..."
Roupin's pupils widened, and she suddenly realized, "It's you! My child is gone, it's your fault!"
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty." Hong'er confessed.
Roupin's body swayed and she almost fell to the ground. Qing'er hurriedly supported her and cursed:
"You are a traitor! The Queen has never treated you unfairly, yet you actually plotted to murder her..."
Concubine Rou's tears fell quickly and she was in a trance.
She had always thought that she and the child were not meant to be together, so she lost the baby. But it turned out that she was murdered.
…
Yonghe Palace, the main hall.
When Ning Wanyin and the others came back from Ganxin Palace, Xiao Guizi prostrated herself on the ground and kowtowed:
"Thank you, Imperial Concubine, for saving my life! If it weren't for you, I would have died today. I bow to you and thank you. I am willing to serve you like a slave to repay your kindness!"
If Ning Wanyin hadn't found out Hong'er's origins.
Just the fact that he and Hong'er have too close a private relationship.
Even if the evidence was insufficient to convict the imperial concubine, it was enough to send him to the Criminal Court and interrogate him to death.
Today I am still alive with all my arms and legs intact, all thanks to the blessing of the Imperial Concubine!
"Get up. Be careful in your actions next time." Ning Wanyin said.
Yonghe Palace must be a place that all the concubines in the harem keep a close eye on secretly. The concubines have their own uses, and the outsiders have their own uses.
Small cassia bark is very suitable for fishing.
"I will never dare to do that again and will never look at the palace maids again!" Xiao Guizi swore, her face full of fear, her legs still weak.
From then on, he no longer had any interest in those pretty little palace maids!
I never dare to look at the little palace maid again!
Lian Rui and the others all burst out laughing when they saw his fearful look.
After a while, the chess player came in and reported, "Empress Rou wants to see you."
"Please ask her to come in."
"If it weren't for the Imperial Concubine's keen insight, I would be to blame today." Concubine Rou's eyes were red from crying, and she bowed to Ning Wanyin to express her gratitude.
Hong'er insisted that she was the one who murdered the royal heir, and she would definitely be held accountable.
The involvement of Xiao Guizi only makes people suspect the imperial concubine, but the evidence is insufficient.
Ning Wanyin's expression was indifferent, "It's my duty."
"I will remember your kindness today in my heart." After expressing her gratitude again and again, Concubine Rou left Yonghe Palace.
Lian Rui said softly, "Master, the news from the Criminal Court is that Concubine Rou's child was killed by Hong'er..."
Ning Wanyin had been guessing this since she found out about Hong'er.
…
Mingde Palace.
After watching this wonderful show, Concubine Jing returned to the palace and Su Ruhuan came to greet her with concern.
"I heard that the eldest prince was poisoned. It's a pity that I'm not feeling well, otherwise I would definitely go and take a look..."
Jingpin told her roughly what happened in Ganxin Palace:
"Now the eldest prince, Concubine Kang, and Concubine An have all been sent out of the palace..."
Su Ruhuan was surprised. "Fortunately, the Imperial Concubine and His Majesty sent people to protect her secretly early on, otherwise Concubine Rou would have died unjustly today..."
Jingpin deeply agreed. Anpin's move was to kill two birds with one stone.
It can not only get rid of Concubine Rou, but also make the emperor suspect whether the Wen family is involved behind the scenes. It also points to Ning Wanyin.
Such a good game can make the second prince and the fourth prince suspicious of each other in the emperor's heart.
But it was broken by Ning Wanyin...
Jingpin was very disappointed, but she was still satisfied that the eldest prince had been deposed.
Apart from the Fourth Prince, the eldest prince poses the greatest threat.
Eliminating one is one.
When something happens to the second prince, her son will become the eldest prince.
"Empress Roupin is so pitiful. She actually has such a treacherous servant hiding by her side." Su Ruhuan sighed softly.
Jingpin thought to herself, indeed, Roupin was stupid.
He actually took Concubine Shu's nail as his confidant. However, those concubines in the palace who had means would have come forward long ago.
She had managed to get the position of Zhaoyi just by entering the palace, but she had made no splash at all and was indeed not a powerful person.
Such a person is naturally easy to deal with. The Second Prince is raised by her, if she makes a careful plan...
Thinking of this, Concubine Jing couldn't help but feel dazed.
Su Ruhuan's words always inspire people to take action.
Once was a coincidence, it can't be a coincidence every time.
She stared at Su Ruhuan, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes, "Every time I chat with Yan Zhaoyi, I can gain a lot from it."
Su Ruhuan was not surprised at all that she could notice it, but was only surprised that she only noticed it now.
Jingpin was a bit shrewd among these concubines, so she kept chatting with Jingpin and giving her some inspiration.
"My father said the same thing when I was at home. So he was promoted all the way from county magistrate to prefect in three years." Su Ruhuan smiled lightly, her eyebrows slightly curved:
"I wish Concubine Jing a bright future."
What this means is, aren’t these “gains” all beneficial to you?
If you can succeed every time, you will have a bright future.
This is an open conspiracy.
Give you advice, if you use it, you will benefit. If you don't use it, your enemies will still be alive and well.
Concubine Jing finally understood that among this year's newcomers, the one with the most hidden means and the most cruel was the seemingly simple and innocent Su Ruhuan.
It's impossible that she gave me advice out of good intentions.
It's just that their interests are the same at the moment. Once the enemy is gone, it will be time for them to turn against each other and become enemies.
But before that, she could indeed chat more with Su Ruhuan.
Get rid of Ning Wanyin first.
…
Qingchi Palace is located near the outskirts of Beijing.
The eldest prince woke up from his coma and found himself in a strange place.
All the palace maids and eunuchs around her have been replaced.
Only Concubine Kang was left by his side.
"Where is this? Where is my father? I want to see him..." The eldest prince did not see Wu Mi, and his mood calmed down a little. He wanted to find Helian Qi to plead for mercy.
