Chapter 347 Chaos
At the same time, she found that Little Li was supposed to be serving in front of her, but something happened and he was nowhere to be seen. The servants of Zhong Yu Palace were kneeling on the ground, and Concubine Qin wanted to salute Xuanyuan Ling herself. Xuanyuan Ling looked at Concubine Qin with disgust in his eyes. Concubine Qin was about to salute, but she was hurt by Xuanyuan Ling's eyes.
"emperor?"
"Stop it!" Xuanyuan Ling scolded harshly.
Qinpin was completely stunned, but Xuanyuan Ling scolded her for no reason. She felt as if her heart was pierced. She knelt down and said, "I don't know what crime I have committed."
At this time, Zhao Hai had already found the little Linzi: "Your Majesty, the man has been arrested, and red pills were also found in the room."
According to the imperial physician, the dosage of the red pill was not large at one time, so it had to be taken several times. The imperial kitchen did not get much at one time, and sure enough, the others were found in Xiao Linzi's room.
When Concubine Qin heard this, her eyes widened with disbelief. Only then did she realize that this was a frame-up that could have made the Emperor so angry. Was Concubine Xi murdered?
"Your Majesty, I am not aware of this matter!"
"Take the man away for interrogation!" Xuanyuan Ling didn't even look at Concubine Qin.
Qin Bin knelt on the ground and almost crawled to pull Xuanyuan Ling's clothes, but was pulled hard by Xuanyuan Ling, and Qin Bin fell to the ground. Qin Bin felt pain on her body, but her heart hurt even more. Didn't he even want to listen to her explanation?
But even if he didn't want to listen, she had to say: "Your Majesty, someone must have framed me in this matter."
Concubine Qin knew that if the matter was not explained clearly, it would be over.
Ever since she received the news from the Qin family, she has been upset that she can no longer touch Chen Qing. She has been in a bad mood. She didn't expect such a thing to happen. But she can't admit this frame-up. If she admits it, not only her, but also the Qin family will be in big trouble!
But just as Qin Concubine was thinking this, Zhao Hai's interrogation came to a conclusion: "That little Linzi confessed, saying that the new steward beside Qin Concubine wanted to please Qin Concubine, and privately told them that as long as Concubine Xi got pregnant, they would definitely get a big reward. He was greedy and agreed, so he gave him medicine and asked him to contact the spy in the imperial kitchen to do this. The servant immediately went to find the steward, but found that he had committed suicide by taking poison."
At this point, Zhao Hai thought that Concubine Qin was really finished.
In fact, Zhao Hai's thoughts at this moment coincided with Qin Bin's. Qin Bin was also stunned when she heard the news that Xiao Lizi committed suicide by taking poison, and then she felt that it was all over.
The person is dead, and there is no way to wash away Xiao Linzi's confession.
"What else do you have to say?"
The image of Little Lizi who was eager for quick success and instant benefits was vivid in Qinpin's mind. When she heard Little Linzi's confession, she thought it was impossible that he was not so courageous. Then she thought of how he had made plans before and felt that it was not impossible. She hated this ignorant servant in her heart. It was okay for him to die, but he actually implicated her.
"Your Majesty, I really didn't know about this. This matter has nothing to do with me."
Qin Pin knew at this moment that it would be useless to say anything. The person was dead and there was no evidence. Even if the person was referring to Xiao Lizi, Xiao Lizi was the manager she promoted, and anyone would think of her.
But if Xuanyuan Ling was really convicted now, it would be the end of her. She only thought of the gecko breaking its tail at the moment, and if she didn't admit anything now, the emperor would probably really put the hat on her head.
"Your Majesty, please investigate. How dare I do this? I just received a reply from my father. Your Majesty does not like the Qin family to act ostentatiously. My father advised me to serve you well in the palace and to be careful with my words and actions. I dare not and will not do such a thing."
Qinpin's words actually appealed to her emotions. Shen Qing found this matter strange, because at this critical juncture, even if Qinpin was crazy, she felt that she would not take action now. If she took action now, it would really implicate the Qin family.
Concubine Qin didn't know that she had been watched since she sent the letter out of the palace. It was also a coincidence that Xuanyuan Ling forgot to deal with Concubine Qin for a while because he was dealing with the affairs of the previous dynasty. So Concubine Qin just thought that Shen Zhizhuo and the others were so lucky that they caught them on the spot. She didn't expect that Xuanyuan Ling was watching them throughout the whole process.
If she hadn't mentioned this, Xuanyuan Ling would not have remembered that he had only asked people to keep an eye on the former dynasty these days and had not bothered to punish Concubine Qin. Now that she mentioned it, didn't it make him remember it?
"Qin, you violated the palace rules. The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs, but you secretly sent someone to send a letter to murder an official of the court, and you still want to make excuses."
When Concubine Qin heard Xuanyuan Ling say this, she was shocked. This crime was not cleared yet, and another one came.
She felt like there was a hole in her heart and felt really cold at the moment, but she still had her rationality.
She cannot admit it. Even if the emperor knew that it was her who sent the letter out of the palace to ask people to harm the father and son of the Shen family, she would never admit to the poisoning. If she really admitted it, it would be murdering the royal heir. If she did it privately without anyone knowing, that would be a big deal. There are many such children who have been killed in the harem. But if she admitted it openly, it would be a serious crime.
Concubine Qin kowtowed to Xuanyuan Ling desperately, tears streaming down her face and she looked so embarrassed. She was rarely so embarrassed: "Your Majesty, I did violate the palace rules, but I really didn't harm Concubine Xi. The Qin family is in such a state now, how dare I do that? Your Majesty, please understand!"
She shouted at the top of her lungs.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't want to believe it. Qin Bin's viciousness had taken root in his heart, but Qin Bin was not stupid after all. The girl from aristocratic family did care about her family. At this critical juncture, it was just as she said. She would not harm Shen Qing. So, was it really that servant who acted on his own initiative?
Xuanyuan Ling narrowed his eyes and said, "Even if that servant acted on his own initiative, it was because you were so vicious that you wanted to murder Concubine Xi, so I dared to do such a bold thing."
"Qin, you violated palace rules and plotted to murder the heir to the throne. You are banished to the cold palace. Qin Binghuai formed a clique for personal gain and failed to educate his daughter properly. You are dismissed from your post and investigated!"
These words sounded like a thunderclap.
Concubine Qin, no, Concubine Qin didn't expect that she was still angry that she couldn't touch Shen Qing, and then this happened. She couldn't accept this fact for a while, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
At the same time, Chu Linglong's situation was in chaos.
It can be said that this night has never stopped since Shen Qing found out that he had been drugged.
Chu Linglong gave birth prematurely.
The people under his command were really worried that Chu Linglong would give birth prematurely these days. What they feared would come true. After dinner, Chu Linglong's stomach began to hurt, and the pain was not just for a while and then it would go away. Chu Linglong herself had a bad premonition at that time.
The delivery nanny felt her belly and broke into a cold sweat: "The noble lady is about to give birth."
Her words scared everyone else. It’s only been more than eight months, and she’s already giving birth?
But the birth of the child could not be stopped. Some people went to call the imperial physician, some people went to make preparations, and naturally someone went to inform Xuanyuan Ling.
