Poor Concubine Xin's unborn baby is so innocent, and Concubine Xin is so sad.

I just hope she doesn’t get into trouble

The two said a few more words, and Xie Yunshu gently pushed the prince's arm and smiled: "Prince, go quickly, don't keep the third prince waiting."

The Third Prince stole the show during his southern tour. Even the Third Prince's concubine walked with a breeze and raised her chin higher when speaking. Xie Yunshu didn't pay much attention to this at first, but when she saw the Third Prince's concubine acting like this, I felt somewhat disgusted and unhappy.

The prince smiled and said: "I hope you can come back early and have dinner with Shu'er!"

 After speaking, he lowered his head, kissed her, and went out first.

Xie Yunshu couldn't sleep either, so she pulled out the melon-eating system and asked random questions about whatever came to mind, trying to get first-hand information.

After the interrogation by Concubines Shu and Concubine Jing, as expected, several palace maids and eunuchs testified that the palace maid had a heart attack and pushed Qi Meiren.

Maybe they really saw it, maybe not, but at this time, biting an indistinguishable dead person to death is the best and safest way to escape guilt.

 Otherwise, who knows whether the two empresses will be punished? When it comes to torture, who knows if he will be unlucky enough to be tortured? Will he not be able to survive the criminal law and be forced to surrender?

Only when the real culprit is killed and the case is closed quickly, everyone will feel relieved and escape.

Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing are not willing to continue the trial. If the trial continues, people will be panicked. Besides, the matter has come to this, what else?

Concubine Shu was even resentful in her heart.

 Isn’t it just miscarriage? What's the big deal? Is it possible that Concubine Xin is the only concubine in the harem who has had miscarriage for so many years? Is it possible that no one else is innocent except her?

I have never seen the emperor before!

Concubine Xin has now been promoted to the rank of concubine, and because of her, everyone is upset and uneasy. Isn't it enough?

What else does she want?

Concubines Shu and Concubine Jing reported the results to the emperor.

When the two of them made the report, Concubine Xin was also there. She casually wore a light yellow-green silk palace dress embroidered with plum blossoms, revealing a touch of snow-white skin under her neck. Her dark oily hair was held up casually and loosely, with only a hairpin tied. A white jade hairpin, with a white jade apricot-colored forehead smear on her forehead, makes her look even more sickly, delicate, and endearing.

She just lay on the big pillow at the head of the bed. The emperor was sitting on the edge of the bed. Her body was lazily leaning against the emperor. When she saw Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing coming in, she just raised her eyelids and glanced at them indifferently. , not even a single hello.

The emperor did not scold her for being rude. Concubine Jing frowned, but Concubine Shu was almost furious.

 Too arrogant!

 However, the emperor favors

The emperor didn’t say anything, so what could they do?

 The two of them had no choice but to come forward and salute.

The emperor glanced at the two of them lightly: "Tell me, what do you think?"

The two hesitated, but Concubine Xin laughed: "Can't I know the outcome of this matter? The two sisters look a little embarrassed!"

Concubines Shu and Concubine Jing were even more worried.

Your Majesty: "Speak truthfully."

Concubine Shu had no choice but to say "yes" and come one by one.

 The emperor's face was very ugly.

Concubine Jing did not dare to raise her head.

Concubine Shu didn't dare, she forced herself to calm down and slowly said, lowering her eyes.

Emperor: “That’s it?”

Concubine Shu: "Yes, now that I think about it, the palace maid named Lian Xin must have been worried about the Dongchuang incident, and was so frightened that she died of a heart attack. It would have been better if I had noticed the abnormality earlier. After all, I still neglected my duty. ."

The emperor was silent. Concubine Xin smiled and said, "What a coincidence!"

Concubine Shu raised her eyes and glanced at her, and sighed calmly: "It's such a coincidence, so I was a little confused before I came here. I didn't know how to say it. I was afraid that the emperor and sister Xin Fei didn't believe it."

Concubine Xin sneered slightly: "I really don't believe it."

Concubine Shu choked up: "."

Concubine Xin looked at her: "Why should I believe such a coincidence! However, that's it. No matter how much we check, we can't find anything. If this causes trouble in the harem, more and more people will be implicated. , even if another life is caused due to interrogation and torture, not to mention that I feel bad, my undestined child will also add a lot of karma. How can I bear it?"

Concubine Xin burst into tears as she spoke, choked with sobs, and her eye circles became red again.

Concubine Shu felt filled with aggrieved anger, but she was speechless.

Even if Concubine Xin's words slap her in the face, she can only bear it by herself. If she responds, it means she is on the right track. Doesn't that mean she is under suspicion?

The emperor sighed, patted Concubine Xin's shoulder lightly, and said in a deep voice: "You think so, but I didn't expect it. That's all, that's it. There will always be children."

Concubine Xin smiled softly.

 His lowered eyes concealed the hatred in his heart. If he had another child, it would not be this one.

She didn’t expect that she only knew about the existence of this child and he left.

 It was because she was an unreliable mother and it was she who harmed him.

The emperor said coldly: "Since the culprit is dead, she is lucky. All the maids and eunuchs on that boat were handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and they will be arranged to do hard labor by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They are not allowed to serve in the harem anymore. They serve for life and are not allowed to leave. Qi Meiren He was deposed as a commoner and relegated to the cold palace."

Even though she was pushed, who said she was the one who took action directly?

How can we spare her?

Concubine Shu glanced at Concubine Xin subconsciously. Concubine Xin was indifferent and had no intention of persuading the emperor.

 Your Majesty, this is really a generous act!

 Never before have so many maids and eunuchs been punished so severely. Never before.

 “Yes, I obey your order.”

 “Go.”

"yes."

Concubine Shu wanted to say something more, but the emperor had already lowered his head and whispered to Concubine Xin. He didn't know what he was talking about. He didn't mean to pay her any attention. She opened her mouth and finally withdrew silently.

 The emperor's attitude is really chilling.

Leaving the emperor, Concubine Jing suddenly laughed.

Concubine Shu looked at her: "What is sister laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Concubine Jing said lightly, "I just feel a little ridiculous. Concubine Xin is getting more and more favored. This matter is really a hassle. I don't know whether it is good or bad."

 Or, in other words, are you shooting yourself in the foot?

Concubine Shu’s face turned cold with embarrassment: “I don’t know what my sister is talking about!”

Concubine Jing hummed and did not argue.

 All the maids and eunuchs never expected that the culprit would be pushed out, and the emperor and Concubine Xin would agree, but they would still be punished.

Working in hard labor and not being able to leave for life, this is simply despairing!

 There was a sudden burst of wailing and crying.

However, I didn’t even dare to cry loudly.

 It is also disrespectful to lose your temper in the palace!

As for Qi Meiren, after receiving the order, she collapsed on the ground and was dumbfounded!

In despair, she tried to commit suicide by drowning herself, but fortunately she was saved by the palace maid next to her.
