Chapter 453: Trapped in one's own web
"Is my mother back?"
Miaomiao suddenly jumped up from the recliner.
The melon seeds in his hand fell to the ground.
He reached out and picked up Jiujiu: "You said that my mother has returned from the frontier?"
The little red bird was startled and flapped its wings hard, chirping.
[I'm back, Jiang Miaomiao, please let go... You're almost squeezing me to death...]
Miaomiao quickly let go of her hand and let the little red bird fly away.
When she turned around, she saw Yu'er looking at her in amazement, without even swallowing the candied fruit in her mouth.
She smiled and pinched the little guy's cheeks.
He skipped away.
Yu'er widened her eyes, looked at the little red bird circling above her head, and then looked at her sister's departing back.
He quickly chased after him.
Is his sister crazy or is he dazzled?
He actually saw his sister talking to the bird.
Miaomiao ran very fast to say goodbye to the Queen, her grandmother, and the princess.
At this moment, she wanted to leave the palace and go home to see her mother.
Jiujiu said that it had been a few days since A'niang came back, but something unexpected happened in the palace during these few days, so news from outside could not come in, and news from inside the palace could not go out.
But Jiujiu is a bird, and the palace walls cannot confine it.
Miaomiao was detained in the house for several days.
I stare at Yu'er every day.
Because several princes and princesses died in the palace.
The Ninth Princess, the Eleventh Prince, and the Thirteenth Princess.
Some drowned while chasing butterflies, some were bitten to death by poisonous snakes that suddenly jumped out of the grass, and some fell to their death from the rockery.
The concubines did not dare to take their children out because they were worried about the palace maids and nannies around them.
They all looked after the children in person.
In this lonely palace, falling out of favor is the norm.
Besides, the emperor is already in that state, so why bother fighting?
Children are the most important thing, they are their lives.
The concubines whose princes and princesses had died knelt outside the emperor's palace and asked the emperor to make the decision.
Some even wanted to break into the emperor's bedroom.
She was almost banished to the cold palace by the Queen Mother.
Fortunately, Princess Yuqing interceded and asked three concubines to assist her in investigating the case.
When the concubines heard this, they immediately perked up, stopped crying and making a fuss, and nodded repeatedly.
Turn grief and anger into strength.
No one wanted more than them to catch the murderer as soon as possible and cut him into pieces to comfort the soul of the child.
All the palaces were immediately sealed off.
Princess Yuqing led the investigation team to search each palace one by one.
Concubine Chen was forced to cooperate with Princess Yuqing and was watched by people sent by Princess Yuqing, so she had no chance to make other arrangements.
Nothing can be done.
She could only watch helplessly as the spies she had planted in various palaces were picked out one by one.
She bit her back teeth so hard that her palms, hidden under her wide sleeves, were bleeding.
Looking at the arrogant figure in front, the murderous intent in his eyes was about to burst out.
She couldn't understand how Yuqing, who was not in the palace on weekdays, could know the situation in each palace so clearly.
It was like she knew from the beginning that those were her people.
The action was so quick that they didn't even have a chance to explain.
She is not afraid of others talking about her being forced to confess.
Princess Yuqing wanted to laugh when she saw Concubine Chen like this.
He was clearly almost mad, but he still had to pretend to be calm and didn't feel tired at all.
The Zhaoyi Palace is in sight.
A strange smile appeared on Chen Fei's lips.
He stepped forward and blocked Princess Yuqing's path. "Princess, I heard that Concubine Shen has gone mad. She's been acting crazy all day and hitting anyone she sees. If she hurts you, we won't be able to explain to the Queen Mother. Besides, she's been put in solitary confinement, so she can't be the murderer."
Princess Yuqing's personality is such that the more she is obstructed, the more suspicious she will feel.
The more you want to enter the Zhaoyi Palace.
Here is a trap she carefully prepared for Yuqing, waiting for her to step into it step by step.
The trap has been set for some time, and now is the best time.
With just this one step, his son can win over the Shen family and win over the imperial guards.
The death of Shen Zhaoyi was a crucial step.
She looked at Concubine Dong, Concubine Wang, and Concubine Lin and said, "Why don't you try to persuade the princess? The man inside is a mad dog now, biting everyone he sees. If he hurts the princess, you will all be held responsible."
The three of them looked at her strangely.
Everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Chen has a kind face but a wicked heart, and that the Crown Prince and Prince Jing are the biggest stumbling blocks to her son.
Facing Princess Yuqing, the prince's elder sister.
She can be so kind.
There must be something wrong with this Zhaoyi Palace.
The three of them immediately objected in unison: "No, what if the murderer sees that there is nowhere to escape and hides in Shen Zhaoyi Palace? There are so many of us, how can we be afraid of a lunatic like her?"
Now that they are in this harem, their only hope of survival is to avenge their children.
Lady Dong: "My son is only five years old, so young. If the murderer is not found, he will die with regrets and will not be able to reincarnate. I will cut out the murderer's heart and flesh, so that he can also taste the pain of losing a son."
Lady Wang said, "My daughter is only ten years old. She's just a girl, and she's no one's business. I don't know who is so cruel and mad as to do such a cruel thing. I curse him to have no children and grandchildren, and to die a miserable death."
Lin Zhaoyi: "Yes, he will not die a good death. Even if it means sleepless nights, I will find the murderer who killed my son and draw and quarter him, then skin him alive."
Chen Fei got goose bumps all over her body when she heard the nagging curses, and she wanted to go up and tear the mouths of these bitches apart.
How dare he curse his son?
Black-hearted.
Those little bastards deserve to die.
Princess Yuqing had a gloomy face, and it was hard to see Concubine Chen's expression at the moment. She must have been furious.
She should hear what happened to her.
She turned around and instructed the eunuchs behind her: "Search, Zhaoyi Palace must not be spared, be sure to search carefully, but do not hurt Shen Zhaoyi."
After saying that, she walked in. Not only did she go in herself, she also pulled Chen Fei in with her.
See who is the turtle in the end.
Whoever is caught in the cocoon is trapped in the cocoon.
Concubine Chen hasn't entered Zhaoyi Shen's bedroom for a long time.
Now looking at it in the light, it is no longer as luxurious and clean as before.
The yard was overgrown with weeds, all the precious flowers had withered, and the pond was full of dead fish.
It also emits a foul odor.
This Zhaoyi Palace, which is only in name only, is no different from the Cold Palace.
When Concubine Chen came to her senses, she found that there was no one behind her, only two palace maids following her with lamps.
"Where are they?"
"I entered the palace first." The maid replied with her head lowered.
Concubine Chen raised her eyes and saw Concubine Shen's bedroom in front of her. The lights were on and the door was closed.
Good, they should have gone in.
At this moment, the hall was filled with aphrodisiac incense. As long as they inhaled it, they would faint immediately.
She originally just wanted to send Yuqing on her journey alone.
Whoever made those three idiots curse her son, then let them die together.
She tiptoed forward to the door, ready to listen to the noise inside.
Quietly...
Could it be that they are all unconscious?
Concubine Chen was overjoyed and was about to call out the eunuchs who were lying in ambush around to clean up the mess.
It was created to make it look like Concubine Shen pretended to be crazy and stupid, and wanted to kill Princess Yuqing in revenge for her son, but was killed by the princess in return.
Just as I was thinking about it, I was suddenly kicked from behind.
Fall into the room.
