The emperor's face was full of anger and his momentum was terrifying. With this shout, everyone in the hall was shocked and knelt on the ground. They lowered their eyes and lowered their eyebrows, not daring to express their anger.
The Queen Mother also quickly asked: "Tell me, who is so bold as to murder the great-grandson of the Ai family?"
Lei Yuan knelt on the ground with one leg, raised his eyes to look at the Queen Mother, and lowered his head: "I dare not say anything!"
The Queen Mother said anxiously: "Forgive you, please hurry up and say, now that the Ai family and the emperor are here, they will definitely make the decision for Brother Gong!"
The emperor also said anxiously: "Just tell me quickly, what is going on?" [
Lei Yuan then raised his head and said, "Just now, Lei Lei captured a person in the backyard. It was Sister Gong's grandmother-in-law, Sister Su. That Sister Su had poppy poison on her hands. If the young master hadn't recognized the person,
, If you don’t follow Aunt Su, I’m afraid the young master will fall into trouble today. Read the full text of Yuanzhu Transformation!”
Lei Yuan bit the words clearly, and everyone heard clearly. Everyone secretly raised their eyes and glanced at the Queen Mother, and saw that the Queen Mother had turned pale with anger.
This Aunt Su is the Queen Mother's personal nanny. If this slave does such a thing, Wangwang has nothing to do with the master!
"You mean the Aijia want to poison Brother Gong?" The Queen Mother was so angry that she was trembling all over. She was old, and she only wanted to have a prosperous family. This Brother Gong was so fat that she didn't even have time to rejoice.
, where will poison him?
Li Huang strode forward and said: "Grandma Huang, grandson doesn't dare. Grandma Huang knows how she treats Brother Gong. Although Aunt Su is Grandma Huang's personal nanny, grandson will not be able to handle this matter."
I thought someone must have deliberately framed Grandma Huang!"
When the Queen Mother heard that someone had poisoned Brother Gong, her anger welled up. She also heard that someone deliberately framed this matter on her. She had been in power for so many years, but she could not swallow this anger. She immediately said to the emperor:
"Emperor, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. The Ai family needs to find out who took advantage of the ambition of the leopard and not only harmed the Ai family's great-grandson, but also framed the Ai family!"
Seeing that the Queen Mother was angry, the Emperor quickly comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Queen Mother, I will definitely investigate this matter strictly!"
After the emperor finished speaking, he turned to look at Lei Yuan and asked coldly: "Then where is Aunt Su now? Bring her up!"
Lei Yuan responded, and after a while, Nanny Su, who was already awake, was brought up. At this moment, she had just woken up, and she didn't know that her affairs had been exposed, so when she saw so many people, she still had a feeling in her heart.
Fortunately, he quickly cried out: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, what mistake did this old slave make?"
"What mistake did you make? The Ai family asks you, who ordered you to assassinate Brother Gong?" The Queen Mother was filled with hatred when she saw Aunt Su. Speaking of which, Aunt Su was the maid she brought into the palace to accompany her.
Having lived with her for more than thirty years, Aunt Su was usually her eyes and hands, but now she was betrayed by her. The Queen Mother felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Aunt Su was startled, and she instinctively argued: "The Queen Mother, don't listen to anyone's nonsense, I don't dare, I don't dare!"
"Don't you dare? What is that thing in your hand?" Seeing that Nanny Su still refused to admit it, the Queen Mother immediately became even more angry and said coldly, "The Ai family knows that you don't have the guts to do this, please tell me quickly.
Who in the end instigated you? If you don’t tell me, don’t blame the Ai family for ignoring the master-servant relationship that has existed for decades!”
Seeing that the matter was revealed, Aunt Su was so frightened that her face turned as pale as chaff. The murder of the emperor's grandson was a major crime against the nine clans, and she did not dare to carry it for anyone. She raised her eyes to look at the ashen-faced Concubine Wu next to the Queen Mother, biting her lip,
Just as she was about to surrender Concubine Wu, she saw Xue Qin beside Concubine Wu and suddenly took out a piece of jade unicorn from her arms. It was the object that the Queen Mother had given her back then. She took the piece of jade unicorn home with her.
She gave it to her eldest brother, who gave her the child she had given birth to outside the palace.
Now that Xueqin took out this object, it meant that her son was in her hands. She hesitated slightly and did not speak.
The Queen Mother followed her gaze and Xueqin quickly put away the jade unicorn and stood beside Concubine Wu with her eyes lowered and her eyebrows lowered.
"Aunt Su, do you want to say it or not?" the Queen Mother asked coldly again.
Aunt Su bit her lip and whispered: "The Queen Mother, I don't know what you mean. What can I have in my hands? There is nothing!"
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand for everyone to see.
Li Huang's eyes darkened, and he looked back and ordered: "Thunder!"[
"Yes!" Lei Lei stepped forward and put Nanny Su's hand into a basin of water. White mist immediately appeared on Nanny Su's hand.
"Reporting to your Majesty, Queen Mother, this poison is called Poppy. It has a color and smell. The only drawback is that it emits a white mist when exposed to water. This poison is very slow and very expensive, so ordinary people will not pay attention to it. According to Lei Lei's opinion
"A person with such poison must be a master to seize the Phoenix!" Lei Lei said coldly.
Aunt Su quickly cried: "The Queen Mother, I really don't know what is going on. Could it be that someone poisoned me while I was not paying attention? I just saw Miss Yingrun coming and was about to follow her.
I said hello, but before I even opened my mouth, I fainted. Was this slave framed by someone while she was unconscious?"
The Queen Mother frowned coldly and said, "Come Chuan Yingrun!"
Yingrun had been outside the hall. When she heard that Aunt Su had framed this matter on her, she was so angry that she was shaking all over. As soon as she arrived in the hall, she knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother Mingjian, just now
Aunt Su was in the empress's room. When the young master cried, her face turned red with fright. The empress thought it was strange, so she sent a servant to follow Aunt Su. She saw Aunt Su whispering to Xue Qin next to Concubine Wu,
This slave girl knocked out Nanny Su so that she could search for evidence, but she didn’t expect that Nanny Su really wanted to harm the young master!"
Xueqin hurriedly came out, knelt in front of Yingrun and said, "It's unfair. I just met Grandma Su and just chatted for a few words!"
The Queen Mother's eyes turned cold. Aunt Su is an old nanny in the palace. She has always upheld restraint. Her behavior in Chu Yiqing's room just now was indeed a bit strange, and just now Aunt Su kept staring at Concubine Wu.
The direction was really suspicious, so he said in a cold voice: "Today was originally a happy day, Brother Gong was washing San'er, but I didn't expect that such a bad thing happened. No matter what, there are two major events in life,
Washing the third day is the first thing. It affects the fortune of a lifetime. For Brother Gong's sake, we should calm down. Let's take Aunt Su back first. The Ai family will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly.
It’s clear, give Brother Gong an explanation!”
When Li Huang saw the Queen Mother saying this, he knew that she already knew it, but this time, he must make that person show his flaws, otherwise, Brother Gong would be in danger in the future, so he immediately said: "Then it all depends on Grandma Huang.
, I believe that Grandma Huang will definitely find out the real culprit, otherwise people will think that Grandma Huang cannot tolerate our Brother Gong!"
When the Queen Mother heard this, she turned pale with anger. She turned to Aunt Su and said bitterly: "Follow the Ai family back to the palace and explain it clearly!"
Aunt Su had no choice but to follow.
In the Queen Mother's palace, Nanny Su knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.
"Su'er, you have been with the Aijia since you were twenty years old, and now it is thirty years. The Aijia understands that you must be forced by others. If you speak out, the Aijia will make the decision for you. But if you don't tell, this will happen.
The Aijia is well aware of what happened, and when the time comes, the Aijia will not be able to protect you and your family!" The Queen Mother asked coldly, using both soft and hard tactics.
Now she was only guarding the Queen Mother. Aunt Su was worried about her son's safety, so she had to reveal everything and kowtow to the Queen Mother again and again: "Mother Queen Mother, it's Su'er who can't help you. Su'er has done something like this now."
This kind of thing comes..."
The Queen Mother sighed faintly and asked: "Back then, you already had a lover, why did you agree to follow the Aijia into the palace? If you had said it earlier, maybe the Aijia could have arranged a marriage between you and that person!"
Aunt Su burst into tears, "The Queen Mother showed great kindness to Su'er. Back then, the Queen Mother only entered the palace as a constant presence and had no family to rely on. How could Su'er leave the Queen Mother at that time? Later, Su'er wanted to leave.
It's no longer possible, so..."
"But you should never want to murder the Ai family's great-grandson!" The Queen Mother's eyes darkened.
Aunt Su quickly stopped crying and looked at the Queen Mother in panic.
"No matter how nice you say it, now that you have betrayed the Aijia and done such a thing, the Aijia cannot protect you!" the Queen Mother said coldly.
Aunt Su was startled and quickly begged for mercy, but the Queen Mother was unmoved.
"Take the person to the prison, and call Concubine Wu!" the Queen Mother ordered in a cold voice.
The guards quickly responded and pulled Nanny Su away.
In Concubine Wu's bedroom, Concubine Wu walked around uneasily and asked Xueqin over and over again: "Why hasn't Counselor Jin come yet? Please ask someone to invite him again!" [
Xueqin was about to go when she saw Manager Yun from the Queen Mother's Palace coming with his guards. He said with a cold expression: "My Lady, the Queen Mother, please live forever!"
Concubine Wu was startled and said quickly: "My father-in-law, please wait a moment while I change my clothes!"
"Concubine Wu, please hurry up and don't embarrass the Za family!" Manager Yun said coldly.
Concubine Wu had no choice but to comply.
After taking Xueqin into the inner room, Concubine Wu lost her balance and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Xueqin held her up.
"Empress, what should we do now? Should we send someone to inform Prince Qian?" Xueqin asked anxiously.
"Calm down, calm down. The Queen Mother sent people to invite me instead of asking the emperor to directly send people to arrest me. This means that there is still hope for this matter. I..." Concubine Wu said calm down, but she was already frightened.
His lips turned white and his hands trembled.
"Your Majesty, Xueqin was raised by your Majesty. Xueqin has nothing to repay, Xueqin..." Xueqin suddenly knelt in front of Concubine Wu and whispered: "Xueqin will take full responsibility for this matter. Xueqin's life will not be saved."
It’s valuable, as long as you can keep your empress!”
"Silly boy, you are a member of this palace, just like Aunt Su is a member of the Queen Mother. Even if you come out and plead guilty, the Queen Mother and the Emperor will not believe it!" Concubine Wu shook her head.
Xueqin said categorically: "Xueqin will make the Queen Mother and the Emperor believe it!"
After Xueqin finished speaking, she stood up and walked out.
Two quarters of an hour later, Concubine Wu was busy thinking about countermeasures when she saw another palace maid hurriedly came over, knelt down in front of Concubine Wu and cried: "Concubine Wu, Sister Xueqin has gone, this is what she left for you. Concubine Wu’s blood letter!”
Concubine Wu was startled.
In the Queen Mother's chamber, Concubine Wu was kneeling on the ground, looking calm.
"Wu Fei, Nanny Su has said everything, what else do you have to explain?" the Queen Mother asked coldly.
Concubine Wu bowed respectfully and said guiltily: "Mother, I was not strict in my discipline. I didn't know that Xueqin was so stupid and would murder Brother Gong for my sake. Now Xueqin has hanged herself and left behind a family. This is a blood letter, please read it to the Queen Mother!"
The Queen Mother was startled and sneered: "Hang yourself? Concubine Wu, do you think you can hide all this by leaving your soldiers and protecting your carriage?"
Concubine Wu quickly said: "Mother, I don't dare, but I really have no reason to murder Brother Gong. Speaking of which, I am also Brother Gong's grandmother!"
The Queen Mother said sincerely: "Back then, Concubine Hua secretly did many things that hurt you and Qian'er, but the Ai family thought this was the case. You can empathize with it and understand the mood of every mother. Concubine Wu, you have disappointed the Ai family so much." !”
Concubine Wu was stunned there, perhaps thinking about Li Qian being blinded by Concubine Hua's poison, and her face was moved.
"Originally, the Ai family wanted to persuade the emperor to appoint you as the queen. After all, you are the oldest and the most senior in this harem, but now... Concubine Wu, the Ai family can endure anything in this life, but injury and death The matter of the emperor's heir must not be tolerated! If you are convicted, the identity of Prince Qian'er will not be guaranteed. For Qian'er's sake, you should voluntarily resign from the cold palace!" the Queen Mother said coldly.
Concubine Wu suddenly raised her face, her face full of sarcasm: "Mother, you are too partial. At that time, the whereabouts of the third prince were unknown, the fourth prince died in the battlefield, Gan'er's eyes were blinded by poison, and the seventh prince fell into the water and died. At that time, Where are you, Queen Mother? You were eating fast and chanting Buddha's name, without caring about the life or death of your children, and now you are here showing mercy?"
The Queen Mother sighed; "It was the Ai family's mistake back then, thinking that Concubine Hua could be the mother of the harem, but who knew she... Later, after the Ai family found out, they returned to the palace as soon as possible. They have been in the palace all these years, but they just don't want to see it. What happened back then happened again!”
"Qian'er has been blind for so many years, what's the use of coming back now?" Concubine Wu shouted loudly.
"Wu Fei, the Ai family has spared your life, do you really want Gan'er to be buried with you?" The Queen Mother said coldly, I will not be bullied by girls. Read the full text.
Concubine Wu has something to say.
The next day, Concubine Wu resigned from the cold palace on her own accord for being lax in supervising the family and allowing slaves to commit murder.
Something happened at the Third Prince's Bathing Banquet. All the princes and nobles were present. Naturally, the news spread. Concubine Wu resigned from the palace during this period. Although most people didn't know the inside story, they could guess it. Eight points, he immediately became even more alienated from the Wu family, and the front door of Prince Nagan's Mansion was even more deserted, and there were only a few people around.
Later, the Queen Mother sent someone to send a letter to the Prince's Mansion, saying that Xue Qin, Nanny Su and others who wanted to harm the young master had been rectified on the spot. Even if this matter was over, Chu Yiqing would naturally not let it go, even though he was in the limelight now. As soon as Concubine Wu dies, she will directly target the Prince's Mansion, but Chu Yiqing wants the world to know that these two children are her treasures. If anyone touches them, even if the Queen Mother and Emperor are protecting them, they will be suspicious!
On the third day, Concubine Wu died in Leng Gong, her throat was cut, and her death was very miserable. Li knew it well. Although he felt that Chu Yiqing's method was too ruthless, there was nothing he could say. He just killed the guard Leng Gong.
With ten guards, the matter was settled.
In the Prince's Mansion, early in the morning, A Bao heard the cry of blessing and hurried into Chu Yiqing's room. He saw the nanny Xu was so anxious that she was sweating. However, no matter how she coaxed her, she would not listen to this little blessing.
Still kept crying.
"Blessing, are you naughty again?" A Bao stepped forward with a smile, stretched out his little finger, and gently poked Little Blessing's little face. But when he thought of what Chu Yiqing said, poking Little Blessing's little face, Little Blessing would flow.
He drooled and immediately retracted his little finger.
As soon as Little Blessing heard A Bao's voice, he immediately pursed his lips, stopped the magic sound skill, opened his round and big black eyes, stared at A Bao for a long time, suddenly curled his mouth, and laughed loudly.
stand up.
"You little naughty little naughty thing, it won't matter if my mother can't live in a hut? If you do this, my mother will be very tired!" Abao took a small wave drum and sat down next to the cradle, rocking the cradle.
He was holding a rattle while talking to Little Blessing, "You have to know that mother suffered a lot in order to give birth to you. If you continue to be so pestering, you will never be able to leave mother for a moment. From now on, father and brother will both
I won’t like you!”
Blessing's tears haven't dried yet. When he heard this, he burst into tears again.
"If you cry again, if you cry again, if you cry again, I will never ignore you!" Abao pouted and said harshly.
Little Blessing didn't listen to him, and continued to cry loudly. Her pink and white arms that looked like lotus joints were still waving vigorously, as if they were resisting.
Abao's little face turned red with anger, and he was about to drop the rattle and leave angrily. Suddenly something occurred to him, so he put his head up again and said, "Blessings, please stop crying. Can I tell you a story?"
Blessings are still crying.
"How about making faces?"
Blessings continue to cry.
"Okay, okay, I'll give you my treasure!" Abao was cruel and took out the Huangwang jade token that Li Huang had given him before and stuffed it into his blessing hand.
I didn’t even look at the blessings, but still cried.
"You little bastard, you just know how to cry, you're a crybaby!" Abao got annoyed, stuffed the jade token into his arms, turned around and left, but now Little Blessing stopped crying.
"Huh?" Abao turned around strangely, and when he saw the blessing, he narrowed his eyes and smiled again.
"Okay, so you bullied me!" Abao was angry. He was bullying him when he was only a few days old. How could he repay him in the future?
"What's wrong?" Chu Yiqing came in and saw A Bao staring at Blessing.
"Mother, you are bullying me!" Abao said aggrievedly, and after telling what happened just now, he added: "He must have done it on purpose, he must have done it on purpose!"
When Chu Yiqing heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "It turns out there are people who can bully our A'bao. It's not easy to give a little blessing. He accidentally fell into a wealthy family and ended up with a domineering president!"
A Bao curled his lips angrily: "Mother is just partial. My brother bullies A Bao like this, but mother still laughs!"
Chu Yiqing smiled even more cheerfully, and now he saw Blessing waving his little hands, seeming very excited,
"Okay, okay, my brother is joking with you!" Chu Yiqing held Abao in his arms and said with a smile: "Today is the New Year, what gift do you want?"
Today is the New Year's Eve, and people in the mansion have been busy early in the morning. Now the whole Prince's Mansion is hung with red lanterns, which is very festive.
Because Chu Yiqing has not given birth, he does not have to go to the palace to celebrate the New Year this year and pay his respects to the Queen Mother. The palace is actually peaceful.
Abao took Chu Yiqing's arm and said, "Mother, Abao wants to take care of your child for a day and wants you to take a rest!"
Chu Yiqing was stunned and looked at Abao with emotion.
"There is a New Year's banquet in the palace. Dad can't leave and can't stand for my mother, but Ah Bao can. Let Ah Bao watch the blessing tonight and let mother sleep well at night!" Ah Bao said in a low voice.
, big eyes flickering.
Chu Yiqing felt soft in his heart and said with a smile: "Blessings, you have to get up at night to feed yourself. Besides, you are still young, how can you take care of children!"
Abao was discouraged and pouted in displeasure.
Chu Yiqing touched his head happily: "No matter what, mother, thank you. Mother's Bao has been sensible since she was a child, but she is much more sensible than this little naughty little blessing!"
Chu Yiqing turned around and gently tapped Blessing's little arm. Blessing looked at Chu Yiqing with his eyes wide open and his mouth curled up.
"Madam, you have been tired for so many days, why not let me try again!" Mrs. Xu took the opportunity to step forward and said.
Chu Yiqing nodded and said: "You have been by Blessing's side these days, it should be almost done, you give it a try!"
Mrs. Xu quickly responded, stepped forward and gently held Blessing's waist and head and hugged her. She saw that little Blessing's mouth was puckered, but he did not cry.
"Oh, that's great, little master, I won't cry anymore!" Mrs. Xu said happily, quickly turned around, lifted up her clothes and gave her blessing to grandma.
At first, he waved his little hand in blessing and seemed unwilling to take it in his mouth. After a long time, maybe he was hungry, so he finally took it in his mouth. Mrs. Xu whispered in surprise again.
"Madam, the young master is a child prodigy. He must be able to understand the conversation between you and the eldest master. The young master finally stopped making troubles!" Mrs. Xu said happily.
Chu Yiqing looked at Blessing in disbelief as she desperately sucked her milk. Although she breathed a sigh of relief, she felt disappointed in her heart. In fact, although these days, she was a little tired looking at Blessing during the day and night, but her current conditions were compared to her
She was much happier when she raised A Bao by herself, so she never complained. Moreover, a few days ago, because of Blessing's little temper, Blessing saved his own life. Chu Yiqing felt that Blessing was so noisy.
There is a reason. People say that newborn children are psychic. Maybe it is because of this reason!
Now that Blessing is obedient, does that mean the danger has passed?
"Madam, Prince Chu personally sent a gift to the young master!" Yingrun came in and said happily.
Chu Yiqing hesitated for a moment and then said: "When you went out to report to the Crown Prince, you just said it was inconvenient for me to see guests. The Crown Prince also did not come back from the palace. It would be rude today! The fifth day of the lunar month is the day of blessing the twelve days after birth.
, I would like to invite my mother-in-law’s family to come over for a meal and soup according to Chu Han’s custom, and let the prince invite the old prince to come with him!”
Yingrun responded quickly.
Chu Yiqing turned around and touched A Bao's head, and whispered: "Taking this opportunity, you can also call uncle and grandpa. With the blessing of the Chu family, your mother will be more comfortable walking around the palace."
