Having expected this for a long time, Concubine Li's expression changed slightly and her eyes turned silently, "I am about to report this matter to the Queen."
"oh?"
"Cloud Sleeves."
The palace maid just now was still pressed outside. Concubine Li looked at her and Yun Xiu immediately brought her in.
The queen's eyebrows moved slightly when she saw this, and she said quietly, "What does Concubine Li mean by this?"
This palace maid looks somewhat familiar, but she is definitely not from Chunhe Palace.
Concubine Li nodded.
"I don't dare to deceive the Queen. I just met Princess Mo by chance on the palace road. The maid of Yuxiu Palace passed by while getting food and first discovered the matter. At that time, Princess Mo had been stabbed by a gangster and passed out on the roadside."
"This is the maid of Yuxiu Palace."
The palace maid trembled when she heard this, raised her eyes to meet the Queen's majestic eyes, and immediately shrank back.
"Slave...Slave Yuxiu Gong Lingxiang, please see the Queen..."
The queen paused slightly when she heard the words, and immediately understood, "Lingxiang? Are you the maid next to Yu Guiren?"
Yuxiu Palace is located in a remote place, and Yuguiren is not favored. This palace lady will indeed pass by here when she wants to get food from the imperial kitchen.
A dark light flashed in his eyes, and his mouth became more serious.
"Raise your head, I have something to ask you."
"yes."
"Just now, Imperial Concubine Li said that you were the first to discover Princess Mo on the palace road. What was the situation at that time? Did you ever see clearly who hurt Princess Mo?"
Lingxiang shook her head and said, "Go back to the Queen. When the servants passed by, Princess Mo had already fallen to the ground covered in blood. There was no trace of the bad guys around."
He glanced at Concubine Li secretly, and then said, "This servant was panicked at the time and did not dare to step forward to take a closer look. It was Concubine Mo who happened to pass by and then brought Concubine Mo back to the palace for treatment."
These words confirmed that Feng Yinwan's injury had nothing to do with Chunhe Palace.
The queen's face suddenly darkened, and when she was about to say something, Concubine Li interrupted her.
"My concubine was about to ask about this matter. The Queen just said that she wanted to catch the assassin. Is this assassin the one who stabbed Princess Mo?"
"It only took a moment from the time I found out about Princess Mo to the time I brought Princess Mo back to the palace. The Queen and her Royal Guards arrived so quickly. Could it be that she already knew about this?"
"Concubine Li!"
This stern shout was full of displeasure.
The queen's face sank a little and she spoke coldly.
"The emperor ignores the dragon body and worries about court affairs. I just went to the imperial kitchen to look for white fungus and lotus seed soup!"
"Unexpectedly, on the palace road, an assassin suddenly pounced on me with a steel knife. If Zhou Wenquan hadn't escorted him in time, I would be the one lying in Changle Palace now."
Zhou Wenquan was the eunuch in charge of Changle Palace.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Li's eyes flashed when she heard this, and she nodded immediately, "I am the concubine who was rude. Please forgive me, the Queen."
The Queen glanced at her, but her voice slowed down when she spoke.
"Those who don't know are not to blame. Concubine Li, you were also unintentional, so how can I blame you? However, according to what Lingxiang just said, the person who assassinated Princess Mo is the same person as the one who assassinated me!"
"In broad daylight, this thief dared to commit such rampant evil in the harem. I must report this matter to the Emperor and the Queen Mother and investigate it strictly to the end!"
This is quite true.
Concubine Li nodded and was about to speak, but then she changed the subject.
"Okay, this matter will be handled by the Royal Forest Army. The most important thing right now is to make sure that Princess Mo's pregnancy is okay."
After glancing at the imperial doctor beside her, the queen directly arranged, "It just so happens that Imperial Doctor Zhao is here, so you can diagnose Princess Mo's pulse."
She turned a blind eye to such a huge wound, but when she opened her mouth, she only cared about Feng Yinwan's belly.
The imperial doctor was slightly startled when he heard this. Before he could say anything, the eunuch's high-pitched voice came from outside.
"The Queen Mother has arrived——"
As soon as she finished speaking, the Queen Mother was already supported by Ye Tingyun and walked quickly through the door. The Queen paused slightly and immediately led everyone to bow down.
"I have met the Queen Mother."
Everyone in the room knelt on the floor, but the Queen Mother had no intention of doing so. She pushed everyone aside and walked straight to the couch.
"Where is Princess Mo? How is her injury?"
On the way back to Shoukang Gongping, I heard the palace maid shouting about Feng Yinwan's assassination. She listened to the clouds all the way and came quickly. Seeing such a formation, her expression suddenly became more solemn.
Before she finished speaking, the shocking wound on Feng Yinwan's shoulder was fully visible, and the Queen Mother's face suddenly turned pale, and she seemed to be a little unsteady.
"Royal Grandmother!"
Ye Tingyun was also a little frightened by the wound.
Who hates this woman more than he does to treat her so cruelly!
He quickly supported the Queen Mother with his eyesight and hands, then looked at the imperial doctor standing aside, and said urgently, "What are you still standing there for? Give Third Sister-in-law a quick diagnosis and treatment!"
The imperial doctor was about to nod when he heard this, but was interrupted by the queen.
"Mother, Princess Mo is still pregnant with the royal descendant. The top priority is to make sure that the fetus is fine."
Between Feng Yinwan and the royal family, the Queen Mother naturally valued the latter.
Ye Tingyun was dissatisfied and spoke out, "I don't agree with what the emperor's aunt said. The third sister-in-law is so seriously injured. If we don't get timely diagnosis and treatment, what will happen if there is an accident even if the fetus in the belly is fine?"
"Human life is at stake. The fetuses on the left and right are in the belly. There is no harm in looking at them after the wounds are healed!"
His words certainly held some weight in the Queen Mother's heart, and she nodded immediately after hearing them.
"Princess Mo must be fine. Doctor Zhao, hurry up and save her."
These words simply saved the imperial doctor from fire and water.
"yes!"
The matter of pulse diagnosis was suppressed, and the Queen was dissatisfied. She glanced at the couch secretly, and had no choice but to retreat outside the screen with the Queen Mother to wait.
The knife cut deeply, even cutting off the meridians. The imperial doctor was so busy inside that he was sweating profusely. It took half an hour to stop Feng Yinwan's wound.
It was completely silent inside without any unnecessary noise, but the atmosphere outside was even more solemn.
"Queen, you are so good, how could something like this happen in the harem?"
The Queen Mother spoke in a deep voice, her face showing dignity.
When the queen heard this, she immediately stood up and knelt down, "I forgive you, mother, but this matter is indeed my fault. I originally asked Princess Nianmo to sit in the palace because of her health, but unexpectedly something like this happened after she left.
…”
Feng Yin's late visit to Changle Palace could not be concealed. Rather than asking the Queen Mother to hear about it from others, it would be better for her to tell it herself.
The Queen Mother's face really darkened when she heard this.
"Princess Mo has ever been to your palace?"
The queen nodded, and before she could say anything, the maid behind her had already knelt down.
"To the Queen Mother, you and His Royal Highness Prince Yun were chanting sutras in the Linghua Palace just now. It was hot outside. The Queen Mother was worried about Princess Mo's health, so she ordered Princess Mo to be invited to sit in the palace first."
"There was nothing wrong with Princess Mo when she left Changle Palace. The fact that she was assassinated was done by bad people. What's more, the empress also encountered the assassin just now..."
"Su Xi, shut up."
The queen shouted to stop, and the maid was about to speak again, but the queen mother had already raised her eyes and looked over.
