Chapter 44(1/2)

Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet

"My little master, it's getting late. Should I go to the Qing Palace?" Bai Hua reminded Chu Yanzi when he saw that the sky was a little dark.

"Well, let's go." Chu Yanzi knew that this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet would not be too calm. The most important thing is that the child in Shufei's belly could not last long.

Since she knew that something would happen tonight, it was very likely that it was related to her, she spent some time on her makeup, wearing a dark white and quiet dress, wrapped in a rose-red cloak, and drew a light makeup. Tsk tsk, she could now think about how pitiful she would be when she was about to stagnate later.

When he arrived in front of the Ganqing Palace, Chu Yanzi held Bai Hua's hand and slowly walked in through the right door. When the eunuch who was singing saw her, he lowered his head and said loudly: "The precious concubine is here!"

When Chu Yanzi entered the hall, the whole hall was very large, and there was a platform in the middle, with men and women separated by a distance.

Seeing her come in, Emperor Yong also looked at her. After seeing her sitting down, he looked over and showed a smile.

The queen kept observing the emperor. When she saw the emperor laughing, she looked along the emperor's sight and saw the precious concubine sitting quietly in the lower head, her smile remained unchanged.

Emperor Yong saw her gaze, frowned, and withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at Chu Yanzi.

"master!"

Suddenly, Emperor Yong was stunned. He looked in the direction of screaming, but saw Concubine Shu lying on the table with her belly covered with red. Even though she had guessed that there would be this day, he felt an indescribable depression in his heart when he saw the pregnant women in the harem who had miscarriages one by one.

With Hemu's scream, everyone in the hall looked at Concubine Shu and saw Concubine Shu lying there in pain in blood. Their faces changed and they looked at each other. Concubine Shu was...

At this time, it was impossible for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet to continue. The court officials left in a frightened manner, and the concubines present were also a little nervous. Concubine Shu's inexplicable miscarriage would inevitably cause people to doubt. They were all present. If the emperor took his anger or suspected them...

When Chu Yanzi arrived at Jingren Palace, he heard the scream of Concubine Shu. Although he knew that the child in his belly was fake, he still protected his belly and his face was pale.

Emperor Yong sat in the main hall, with his eyes closed, obviously waiting for the result. The queen stood aside with a bad face. Before, Meiren Liu had an accident at the flower viewing banquet she held. Now, Concubine Shu was miscarriage at the state banquet. Regardless of whether she was doing it or not, she was responsible for the charge of lax management of the harem.

Seeing Chu Yanzi come in, Emperor Yong finally opened his eyes. When he looked up, he saw Chu Yanzi's face was not good. Thinking that she was still pregnant, "Why are you still standing there? Give him a seat to the precious concubine."

Chu Yanzi knew that Emperor Yong would not be in a good mood now, no matter whether he was looking forward to or not, he would not be in a good mood now. After thanking Emperor Yong, he sat down and didn't speak, looking at the side hall with a worried expression on his face.

Xin Zhaoyi also arrived at this time, "I will meet the emperor and the queen."

"Get up." Xin Zhaoyi also got up, sat down and looked at Chu Yanzi, with a deep meaning flashing through it, which was fleeting. If Chu Yanzi had not been following her for some reasons, she might have missed it.

Chu Yanzi felt a little uneasy. Xin Zhaoyi was obviously planning something, and it was related to her. She would not put Shufei's miscarriage on her head. Thinking of Qing Ling in her palace, she couldn't help but think of this.

The screams of Shufei in the side palace finally stopped, and the imperial physician walked out, "Emperor, the prince in Shufei's belly was not saved." He knelt on the ground and was pulled in by the darkness of the harem. The imperial physician was a little scared.

Emperor Yong opened his eyes, and later he heard the imperial physician say that he was a male fetus, but his heart still trembled. He was already twenty-eight years old this year, and he was almost thirty years old, but there was no prince under his knees. There was a sound in the court, but he had suppressed him.

"Emperor, when I was diagnosing Concubine Shu, I found that the Empress was a little weak before. In addition, I ate the opposite food this time, which led to miscarriage."

Emperor Yong originally thought that Concubine Shu had miscarriage because of the drug, but she didn't expect that someone would tamper with it again. She was angry,

"Queen! In just two months, when the concubines are connected to the miscarriage, is this the harem you manage?"

The queen knelt down in a panic, "I don't manage it properly, please punish me."

"Punishment? You should." Seeing that the queen looked pale, she said, "When the matter is found out, we will punish you together."

"Yes, I thanked the emperor." The queen stood up unsteadily with Baoshi, feeling angry. She always took action at the banquet she was responsible for, and she really didn't take her seriously.

When Chu Yanzi saw the queen thanking her, she silently recited the thunder and rain in her heart. It was all the emperor's kindness. This was a feudal dynasty with greater imperial power and a feudal era of equality and justice in her previous life. She could not allow her to take a wrong step.

"Zhang Jin, bring everyone who has handled Shufei's food with you." Emperor Yong was obviously angry. With such a person in the harem, Shufei's child is not saved today, and other concubines may not be able to save tomorrow. He will never let this person go freely.

"Your Majesty, I have brought it. There are only these three people who have handled the food of Concubine Shu." Zhang Jin led a eunuch and two palace maids in.

The three of them obviously knew what happened, but they didn't know what it had to do with them. They looked scared and confused at this moment.

At this time, there was no need for Emperor Yong to ask questions. The queen stepped forward, "Concubine Shu used food and miscarriage, and only the three of you passed the food through her. Who did it do it? It's not a real move!"

The three of them kowtowed repeatedly, "I'm wronged. I have no grudge against Concubine Shu, how could I harm her?"

"Besides you, who else has passed through Shufei's food, or who have you met on the way?"

"I don't know, I don't know."

Seeing this, the queen turned to Emperor Yong, "Emperor, look at this..."

Emperor Yong looked at the three people below, "If you don't say it, just drag it to Shenxingsi. There will always be people who can't stand the confession."

The three palace servants below were so scared that their faces were pale, "Your Majesty, please spare me, then, the servants did not harm Concubine Shu, and they didn't know anything!" The sound of begging for mercy and kowtows spread throughout the palace.

There was a palace maid who seemed to think of something, and her expression changed, "Your Majesty, I remember it!"

Xin Zhaoyi smiled in a place where others could not see it. Then she listened to the queen asking, "What have you remembered?"

"When I was delivering food to Concubine Shu, I met Qing Ling from the palace of the precious concubine. She asked me at that time, who was the food I gave to, and I replied that she was Concubine Shu. She said: It turns out that it is not our precious concubine." The palace maid kowtowed and cried, "I know so much. I didn't harm Concubine Shu! Your Majesty, please spare your life!"

You can tell that she was not lying at her. Everyone looked at Chu Yanzi in surprise, and Chu Yanzi himself looked confused.

Chu Yanzi looked at Emperor Yong, who was in the upper head, and saw him looking at him suspiciously, with injuries in his eyes, "Your Majesty might as well go to Xuan Qing Ling in my palace to confront her."

Emperor Yong originally suspected Chu Yanzi after hearing the words of the palace maid, but looking at her expression and thinking about her past behavior, the suspicion in his eyes finally faded a little. After all, he was unwilling to doubt this woman.

Qing Ling was quickly brought here, and the interrogation was left to the queen. "Shu Concubine Shu's miscarriage. The palace maid said that she had only met you in delivering food to Shu Concubine Shu. Do you have anything else to say?"

Because she is from Chu Yanzi's palace, Chu Yanzi is both a favorite concubine and is pregnant now, and now she is not as evidenced as conclusive. The queen's tone is much better than before.

Qing Ling was brought over and was already scared. When she heard the queen say this, she hurriedly said, "I didn't harm Concubine Shu. I hope the queen will be careful!"

Zhang Jin walked in at this time, looked at Chu Yanzi, and said to Emperor Yong, "Emperor, I found the red flower in this Qingling's room."

Xin Zhaoyi looked at Chu Yanzi and saw that she was looking at her too. She narrowed her eyes, but then smiled again. Even if she guessed it, what would happen? The focus she prepared was behind.

Emperor Yong looked at Chu Yanzi, and saw that her expression remained unchanged, and he didn't know whether he should believe her. He moved his eyes to her abdomen and exhaled, "A bold slave, murdering the prince, killing you nine clans is not enough, and you won't tell the truth!"

When Qing Ling heard the killing of the nine clans, she was so scared that she kowtowed repeatedly, "I said, I said."

Qing Ling raised her head and looked at Chu Yanzi. Seeing Chu Yanzi looking at her with an unknown expression, her hands in her sleeves trembled, and her eyes looked at Xin Zhaoyi above, "It's the little master, it's our little master who asked me to do it. It's not about my family's business."

This answer was what Emperor Yong least wanted to hear. When Chu Yanzi heard this, he couldn't help but step forward, "You said that the medicine I asked you to take, then you said, when did I ask you to do it? Is there anyone who has a proof?"

Qing Ling looked in her direction, "Little Master? Are you going to give up on me? How could someone prove such a hidden thing?" He said in disbelief.

Chu Yanzi laughed in anger, "Give up? There are so many trustworthy people around me, why do you ask a third-class maid to do such an important thing?"

When Emperor Yong and others heard Chu Yanzi say this, they couldn't help but wonder what Qing Ling said.

Seeing that the emperor was increasingly suspicious of him, Qing Ling gritted his teeth and said to Emperor Yong, "Emperor, I have no evidence. But I know why the little master dared to murder the imperial heir in Shufei's belly."

Emperor Yong's eyes darkened, "What do you know?"

"When the little master asked me to go to the medicine, I didn't dare. But the little master said that Shufei's child was gone, so she was the only pregnant person in the palace."

Seeing that Emperor Yong had suspicion of Chu Yanzi, Qing Ling broke out another news, "Emperor, there is one more thing, little master, little master is not pregnant at all!"

As soon as these words came out, the palace exclaimed.

Zhang Jin had long been kneeling down with a group of palace servants.

The queen looked at Chu Yanzi with surprise, and she didn't expect that she was so bold.

As for why I didn't doubt the truth or falsehood of this statement, such a simple lie could not be told at all. The imperial physician found out after investigation.

Emperor Yong was angry and got angry. The water cup in his hand fell directly on Chu Yanzi's body, hitting her abdomen, and stood up to look at Chu Yanzi. "Is she true?" He covered the pain when he saw the water stains on her body.

Chu Yanzi knew that this was Xin Zhaoyi's last move. She didn't want to frame her and murder the prince, but pretended to be pregnant.

Chu Yanzi stepped forward and knelt on the ground, protecting her belly with her hands. The time for her fake pregnancy pill was about to come, and her stomach was already hurting. She smiled bitterly in her heart. The emperor's cup was really a place.

Her forehead was so painful that she sweated. In the eyes of others, this was a sign of guilt. "Your Majesty, this slave is talking nonsense, you can't believe her."

"I can't believe her, so who do I believe? Are you? My beloved concubine!" Emperor Yong was really angry. Whether it was Liu Meiren's miscarriage or Du promised to murder the imperial heir, even hearing that she had harmed Shufei's child in her belly was not so angry.

If anyone he expects to get pregnant most in this harem must be that Chu Yanzi has no one else, but now that she has let down his previous trust, the final anger is also the deepest.

When Chu Yanzi heard him say "my beloved concubine", she clearly realized that if there was no system at the beginning, she might have fallen today.

"Does the emperor believe in concubines?" No matter whether she has true love for the emperor or not, she has treated him sincerely these days. Maybe she has not reached the level of a lover, but she knows that they will be involved in this generation, so how could she not give any feelings?

But today I really slapped her a big slap. This cup reminded her all the time that this harem could not accommodate a trace of true feelings.

The more pitiful the expression on her face, the more cruel she feels.

"How do you tell me to believe you? Do you rely on the 'child' in your belly?" The "child" in that sentence was full of ridicule.

No one in the palace dared to speak out, and even the queen kept silent, watching the confrontation between the emperor and his favorite concubine.

Xin Zhaoyi's eyes when she looked at Chu Yanzi were full of pleasure and mockery. Since she entered the palace, Chu Yanzi was the first person to make her shameless and the first person to make her feel pressured. With this, Chu Yanzi is worthy of her use of all her connections to destroy her.

"The emperor didn't even ask the imperial physician to diagnose it. Did you just find out that your concubine had deceived you so quickly?" Chu Yanzi's tears kept falling, crying so hard that he couldn't help but feel pain in his abdomen and collapsed to the ground.

"Ah! The precious concubine is getting popular!" A concubine behind Chu Yanzi suddenly screamed.

But this sentence made everyone stunned. How could he see Hong? Isn’t it fake?

Emperor Yong was stunned, a little unable to believe what he heard. He looked up at her, but saw that she was still looking at him motionlessly.

Xin Zhaoyi exclaimed in disbelief, "How is this possible?" Qing Ling also looked panicked.

Hearing Xin Zhaoyi's words, Emperor Yong finally reacted and walked forward quickly, "Where is the imperial doctor! Come on!"

Emperor Yong wanted to pick her up, but Chu Yanzi said to him, "Your Majesty, do you believe A Yan?" He looked at him tightly, wanting an answer, but his voice was so low that he almost couldn't hear it.

"I believe, I believe!"

Emperor Yong was useless even claiming to be self-proclaimed, and his voice was trembling.

He always wants a child, which he expects most, but he killed him.
