The queen paused and glanced at Qianlong cautiously, "Your Majesty, Hutuli said that you promised her that when she can draw a three-force bow, you will take her to the shooting range."

The Queen didn't want to talk about this, but Hutuli had asked about it several times. She was able to pull the Sanli bow a month ago, but because of something else, she didn't see the Emperor coming, so she kept putting it off.

Qianlong was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered this incident, which was probably said last year. "I know. I will take Hutuli there in a few days."

The queen stood up and saluted with gratitude on her face, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Hutuli had always wanted to spend more time with the emperor, but she remembered him when he was busy before. However, since the beginning of this year, the emperor's mood has not been very good, so they have not been able to spend much time together.

After listening to this, Qianlong recalled his dream, in which Hejing, along with the concubines, stirred up trouble in the harem.

Fortunately, his Hutuli is not that kind of person.

"It's okay. I am her father," Qianlong said. Hutuli is still young, but the things he had thought about before should now be put on the agenda.

The queen was happy and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is a kind father. I know that." She must be happy that the emperor was willing to be kind to her daughter.

The better the emperor treats her daughter, the safer her daughter will be in the future.

Qianlong nodded, neither confirming nor denying what the queen said, "Forget it, it's getting late, you should stay and have dinner with me." Qianlong looked at the sky. He had indeed been intentionally avoiding the queen during this period of time.

All the people in his dream matched, except that the time when Wei appeared was different, and the time when Gao was pregnant was different.

If these people didn't act differently, he would sometimes feel like he was living in a dream.

The queen nodded.

"Your Majesty, there are rumors in the garden that Concubine Jia is jealous of Concubine Chun, so she bribed the aunt around Concubine Chun and wanted to get rid of the prince in Concubine Chun's belly." When Yu Lu heard the news, she patted her chest in fear.

At the beginning, she was almost assigned to Concubine Jia's palace. If this was true, she would be Concubine Jia's accomplice.

This was the first time in her life that she had seen someone actually harming another person.

Yu Suisui was eating a peach and was a little surprised, "Did the Queen find out, or is it just a rumor in the garden?" It seems that Concubine Jia has a bad temper, but Concubine Jia is beautiful, a bright and charming beauty, it is normal for her to have a little temper.

"The Queen Mother called Concubine Jia over for questioning." Yu Lu said. All the palace people in the garden said that this must be related to Concubine Jia. Otherwise, why would the Queen Mother call Concubine Jia over at this critical moment?

What's more, a palace maid in Concubine Jia's courtyard was also taken to the Ministry of Punishment. This must be because Concubine Jia did something.

Yu Suisui: "Three people can make a tiger, and gossip can melt gold. Yu Lu, there is no evidence to prove that Concubine Jia said these things, so let's not talk nonsense about them." She knew that Yu Lu wanted to tell her some information about the Old Summer Palace, but if these unconfirmed words were spread too much, they would become more than just gossip.

Yu Lu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have never spread this news to anyone else. I only thought of telling you after I heard someone say so." She really had never told anyone in private that Concubine Jia had harmed Concubine Chun.

However, the rumor started when Concubine Jia was summoned by the Empress for questioning.

"I know you are not such a person, but our Wanfang Anhe is far away from there, so we should just live our own lives quietly. You should pay more attention to our people in Wanfang Anhe and don't follow suit." Yu Suisui said.

For some things, if there is no evidence to prove it, then we should presume innocence and not arbitrarily accuse someone of a crime.

If the other person is found innocent afterwards, this self-proclaimed justice is proof of harm to the other person.

Yu Lu: "I know, and my aunt also told me that I can know these words but I can't tell anyone about them." My aunt said this before.

Yu Suisui: "That's good." Just don't spread the rumors. After all, this is not a trivial matter caused by fighting for favor, this is about human life.

It is true that Concubine Chun was injured and almost had a miscarriage. The baby was not born, so it can be said that it is not a single person. But what about Concubine Chun? What if something happened to her because of this difficult delivery?

Concubine Jia was so angry that she smashed several vases. Her son, the Fourth Prince, who was standing by, also got angry and said, "Mother, go arrest all these people and ask the Emperor to beat them with a stick!"

The Fourth Prince was born a few years after Qianlong ascended the throne. He is still young and not old enough to go to the study to start his education. He now lives in Concubine Jia's courtyard.

Concubine Jia stretched out her hand and called the Fourth Prince over, "I'll be there in a minute! Eat your fill first, and remember, when mother cries, you must cry too." She would definitely not swallow her anger, and she had to make it clear for such a great injustice.

She didn't do this, so why should she take the blame?

But before Concubine Jia went to Emperor Qianlong's Jiuzhou Qingyan, Concubine Chun's son, the Third Prince, rushed over and started fighting with the Fourth Prince in Concubine Jia's yard.

The Third Prince is a few years older than the Fourth Prince, and their physical strength is not on the same level. When Concubine Jia was trying to stop the fight, he was pushed and crashed into the flower stand behind him. Fortunately, the vase on the stand had just been smashed by Concubine Jia, otherwise the blow would have hit her.

Qianlong and the Queen were halfway through their dinner when they were woken by the eunuch of Concubine Jia who came over and called for help.

The floor was in a mess, with tables, chairs and benches scattered all over the place, and ceramic fragments scattered all over the floor. There was no place for Qianlong to even step.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Qianlong was furious, and the rage in his eyes was ready to burn everyone present.

The fourth prince immediately rushed over and hugged Qianlong's legs, howling and complaining, "Father, help me! Third brother wants to kill me and mother! Third brother is crazy!"

The Fourth Prince is young and he learned these rules from Concubine Jia. Most of the time he says the same thing as Concubine Jia.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Jia burst into tears, "Your Majesty, please help me! I didn't do anything, but the Third Prince rushed into my yard and threatened to teach me a lesson."

The affair of that bitch Concubine Chun had nothing to do with her, but the Third Prince directly labeled her a criminal and started calling for her to be beaten and killed.

When the Third Prince saw Concubine Jia and the Fourth Prince making the first move to complain, he immediately raised his voice and said, "Father, this Concubine Jia almost caused my mother to have a miscarriage. She is killing people and plotting to murder the heir to the throne!"

After hearing what the Third Prince said, Qianlong looked at the Queen in confusion, then looked at the Third Prince and said in a deep voice, "Who told you this?"

The matter between Jin and Su had nothing to do with each other, so how did the rumor spread that it was Jin who did it?

The Queen was a little frightened by Qianlong's look and immediately explained, "Your Majesty, I didn't say that." She didn't say it was related to Concubine Jia, she just called Concubine Jia over for questioning according to the rules.
