Chapter 119: Lure

Ji Xiaotang asked Empress Dowager Han, who caused Ji Xiaolian?

"...Who else can there be..." Empress Dowager Han sneered, and then told Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen about what he was born to.

Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen listened, and quickly exchanged glances. According to Empress Dowager Han, the murderer who assassinated Ji Xiaolian pointed at someone.

"...It's her, it's this slut, Zheng Rong." Finally, when Empress Dowager Han said Zheng Rong's name, perhaps because of her excitement and hatred, she even coughed a few times.

That cough is not pretended.

Empress Dowager Han’s health is getting worse and worse now.

"It turned out to be her?" Ji Xiaotang's face showed a very surprised expression, "How could it be her? Since the queen mother knew that all this was done by Concubine Zheng, she should severely punish Concubine Zheng."

This time, Ji Xiaolian's incident was very involved in the palace. Not only did Empress Han Kunning's palace be implicated, but Concubine Zheng Zheng Rong was also implicated.

A palace maid in Concubine Zheng committed suicide in the palace, and Concubine Zheng herself was ordered by Empress Dowager Han and was imprisoned in the cold palace.

However, Empress Dowager Han did not announce the charges of Concubine Zheng, nor did she announce how to punish Concubine Zheng.

Speaking of the palace maid committing suicide, after Ji Xiaolian's incident, there seemed to be fewer people in Cining's palace.

Ji Xiaotang looked around and saw a little clear in his heart.

Empress Dowager Han started coughing violently again, and after a while, she could barely stop.

"I also want to punish her severely and avenge your elder sister and my poor grandson. I hate that slut used a good method, not only denying it, but also destroying all the people around me... You also know that the slut is powerful behind it. Although I know it is her, I don't have any tangible evidence in my hand, so I can't do anything to her for a moment!"

Empress Dowager Han spoke, raised her eyes to look at Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang. At this moment, the light flashed in her eyes, as if she was conveying some messages that she was not easy to convey.

The power behind Zheng Rong naturally refers to the Zheng family, that is, Zheng Mian, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

The Ministry of Revenue was in charge of the world's money and grain. Zheng Mian worked as the Minister of State for decades. He was good at dancing and was known as a tumbler. The world was famined for years, and the court relied more and more on the Ministry of Revenue. Zheng Mian had been operating for many years and had mixed forces.

The whole body was moved with one touch. Empress Dowager Han really did not dare to move Zheng Mian easily, but if it were just the Zheng family, it would not be impossible to move.

The key issue is behind the Zheng family. There is another force behind the Zheng family that cannot be underestimated. That is Prince Su Qin Lin.

Empress Dowager Han said that she could not do anything to Zheng Rong, and that she was afraid of not only the Zheng family, but also Qin Lin.

Ji Xiaotang was secretly exposed in his heart. Empress Dowager Han worked hard and finally wanted to find out after such layers of preparation, and expressed her true intentions: Behind Ji Xiaolian's incident, Concubine Zheng Rong was the inner response, and Prince Su Qin Lin was manipulating it.

Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang were slightly moved. However, they were extremely calm inside. The two of them didn't have much to do with each other, but Empress Dowager Han couldn't help but say everything.

Empress Dowager Han paused and waved his hands to the people serving on both sides.

Everyone serving saluted, lowered their heads and retreated silently, and closed the doors of the hall.

In the main hall, there are only three people, Empress Dowager Han, Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang.

"Zhen'er," Empress Dowager Han said with emotion and extended her hand to Qin Zhen at the same time.

Qin Zhen quickly got up, walked quickly to Empress Dowager Han, and held the hand that Empress Dowager Han stretched out.

Queen Mother Han seemed very comforted, but her eyes became redder.

"Now your Majesty and I are isolated in the palace. The country and country of Qin are about to fall into the hands of the thieves. Only Zhen'er can turn the tide..."

"The Empress Dowager doesn't have to do this, things are so far!" Qin Zhen said hurriedly. "The Empress Dowager was too sad because Concubine Ji passed away and had no younger prince grandson, so she was overly sad and had a little pessimistic thought..."

"You child is still as kind and naive as you were when you were a child..." Empress Dowager Han looked at Qin Zhen and said with a hint of regret.

"I would like to ask the Queen Mother for advice." Qin Zhen had no choice but to say.

"... He is guilty and has a deep knot with us. Yu'er has grown so big, and I am kind, but they are always on guard against me, afraid that I will hurt Yu'er. I have only seen Yu'er once, and I have never even hugged that child! They have no affection and concern for me and His Majesty!"

Empress Dowager Han said in tears.

"Your Majesty has had no descendants for many years, so they have developed wolf ambitions and secretly formed a clique for personal gain. He thought that His Majesty and I were not aware of it. His Majesty and I were just thinking about the late emperor and the flesh and blood of his close relatives, so we kept letting it go. Your Majesty has no descendants, and you have never been successful. Your Majesty and I have thought about it..., but, that evil son is really an ungrateful wolf, how can I rest assured with Your Majesty..."

"God is merciful, Concubine Ji is pregnant. His Majesty and I are both happy and worried. What is happy is that His Majesty finally has children, and what is worried is that the person who covets the throne will not let Concubine Ji give up the imperial heir smoothly.        "

"We were extremely careful. The queen even took care of Concubine Ji's food, clothing, housing and transportation, but she still couldn't guard against the thief..."

Empress Dowager Han pulled Qin Zhen and said for a while in tears.

In the narrative of Empress Dowager Han, it was Qin Lin's instructor, Zheng Gui executed in the palace, and secretly attacked Ji Xiaolian and killed two corpses. Later, the two sides united and wiped out all those who knew about it.

This person who was familiar with the matter was not only the people around Concubine Zheng. The people around Empress Han saw the flaws and had evidence that Concubine Zheng harmed people, and were also killed by these two people secretly.

"Even here, they didn't let it go." Empress Dowager Han said this, and her eyes moved to Ji Xiaotang's face. She asked Ji Xiaotang, "Xiaotang, do you still remember Madam Fang?"

"Report to the Queen Mother," Ji Xiaotang also stood up and walked to Queen Mother Han and stood side by side with Qin Zhen. "How could I not remember? Madam Fang is an old lady who needs to be used by the Queen Mother. When I came to the palace to live in a small place, it was thanks to Madam Fang's enthusiastic care."

"Yes, it's her. You kid, really a good kid who values ​​love." Queen Mother Han nodded, "You must be very strange when you come today. She is always by my side, so why didn't you see me today?"

"I was about to ask my mother, but I didn't have a chance yet. Could it be that my mother sent her some errands. So I'm not by my mother's side?"

"What's the job she's sent?" Empress Dowager Han shook her head and then told Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen, "...She has served by me for decades, but she was not in good health a few days ago. She said she was old and wanted to retire and return home. I couldn't bear to leave her, but she thought that she was tired by my side, and she could enjoy her life and return home."

"So. I promised her. But she wanted to go back to her hometown, so she planned to buy more things. There were still some things to be done in the capital, so I naturally wouldn't urge her to leave. But after she left the palace that day, she never came back."

"Is there such a thing?" Ji Xiaotang asked in surprise, "Madam Fang and her mother are deeply in love and are an old man who understands the truth. She should not leave without saying goodbye."

"I think so too." Queen Mother Han nodded, "I am worried about these things now. I'm afraid she's been killed. I'm afraid she's also injured. I'm afraid I can't see her again in the future."

When Empress Dowager Han said this, shed a few tears.

Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but sigh and had to try his best to comfort Empress Dowager Han. Taking advantage of Empress Dowager Han's head to wipe his tears, Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen exchanged another wink.

Maybe the couple was not sure about other things, but Qin Zhen could find out about Madam Fang clearly.

Empress Dowager Han prepared a baby boy outside the palace, intending to replace this matter in time when Ji Xiaolian gave birth to a baby girl. It was Madam Fang who appointed it. Because of this, Madam Fang had frequently left the palace a few days ago.

However, the incident of Madam Fang returning home was false.

Qin Lin did control the place where Madam Fang hid the pregnant women. She also caught the pregnant women, but she did not catch Madam Fang. However, Madam Fang was indeed dead, but it was not in Qin Lin's hands.

How could Qin Lin kill Madam Fang? What he wanted most was to capture Madam Fang alive. Let Madam Fang point out Empress Dowager Han.

Madam Fang died at the hands of Empress Dowager Han, and her body disappeared.

In the past, Empress Dowager Han kept saying that Qin Lin and Zheng Rong colluded, which resulted in Ji Xiaolian's death and killed others and later killed people to silence them. These things were not done by Qin Lin at all.

Qin Lin’s plan was very good, but Empress Dowager Han noticed it sensitively.

Although King Su used a lot of effort in the Forbidden Palace and had an internal support like Zheng Rong, he still underestimated Empress Dowager Han. In the Forbidden Palace, Empress Dowager Han's world is still the one in the Forbidden Palace.

Empress Dowager Han noticed Qin Lin's plan and was very concerned, knowing that continuing to keep the fetus in Ji Xiaolian's belly would cause her to be incalculable.

Empress Dowager Han made a quick decision and took action before Qin Lin.

Ji Xiaolian had one corpse and two lives, and Empress Dowager Han was the real murderer behind it. As for so many people who were implicated and many died, most of them died at the hands of Empress Dowager Han.

Now, Empress Dowager Han called Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen into the palace, turned black and white in front of them, and pushed all these things to Qin Lin.

The purpose of Queen Mother Han did this was of course not just to cover up her own crimes.

"Now I am the one who serves around me. I don't know when he will attack me directly!" Empress Dowager Han held Qin Zhen in one hand and Ji Xiaotang in the other, and shed tears again.

"He dared to do this!" Qin Zhen finally got angry, raised his eyebrows and glared at his eyes.

Qin Zhen was rarely angry. It seemed that he was really angry this time. Ji Xiaotang had almost never seen Qin Zhen angry.

Qin Zhen looked angry now, and Ji Xiaotang was a little scared.

"Why don't he dare?" A hint of pride flashed quickly in Queen Mother Han's eyes, and then he returned to his sadness. "Your Majesty has not had a son for many years, Zhen'er, you have been unscrupulous. The thief has already regarded the dragon throne as his bag."

Empress Dowager Han said that Qin Zhen was not good at it, and his tone was full of affection and pampering.

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty is in full bloom. Although Concubine Ji is unfortunate, Your Majesty will definitely have other princes. Please relax, Third Brother... I will go and have a good talk with him. One day when I am here, I will never let him do something that is against humanity!" Qin Zhen persuaded Empress Dowager Han, and promised Empress Dowager Han that he and Qin Lin were incompatible.

"The prince is right." Ji Xiaotang also echoed, "The Empress Dowager should have lost his little prince's grandson, so he is too sad. Your Majesty is in his prime and there are many concubines in the harem. Although he has lost this, he will have to have more than one in the future. The Empress Dowager does not need to worry at all."

While nodding, Empress Dowager Han shook her head again and sighed deeply.

"You two are good kids, and they talk to me to make me happy. Others don't know, but I know it, and I'm not afraid to tell you clearly." Empress Dowager Han's eyes were focused and trustworthy, as if she was telling Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen. What she was going to say next were heartfelt words, and they were heartfelt words that would never be said to outsiders.

"Your Majesty's health has been getting worse and worse over the years. Although the imperial physicians tried their best to recuperate, they were just... I'm afraid..." Although he decided to show up with Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang, it was still very difficult to say these words.

However, she was cruel and said that sentence.

"...Your Majesty, I'm afraid there will be no more children!"

This was already a consensus between the government and the public, but it was the first time that Empress Dowager Han personally admitted it, and it was in front of a prince who was qualified to succeed the throne.

What this means, no one knows better than Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang.

"Please don't say that!" Qin Zhen said hurriedly, and subconsciously lowered his head.

Ji Xiaotang took a moment and immediately comforted Empress Dowager Han.

"My mother, auspicious people will have their own appearance. Mother mother should not be so pessimistic."

"It's not that I am pessimistic. I am so destiny, and I cannot help but bow to the destiny." Empress Dowager Han saw the reactions of Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang, and a smile could not help but bring a smile to the corner of her mouth.

She knew that once such bait was thrown away, even Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang, two young foxes who had become sperm, would not be allowed to take the bait.

Jiang is still so old. Even though these two little foxes are extremely cunning, they will eventually fall into her trap and be driven to serve.

"Your Majesty can't have any more children, but the Qin Dynasty needs an heir." Empress Dowager Han put down Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen's hands and said slowly, but clearly, "Now there are only two people who can inherit the treasure after Your Majesty."

"One of them is Qin Yu, the prince of King Su, and the other is... Xuan'er."

"Qin Lin must understand this very well. I have come to you, not for myself. Qin Lin has already killed His Majesty's child. The next step is to attack Xuan'er!"
