Comprehensive film and television: The cool life of the female supporting role after the cross-dress

Afterwards, the palace maids who were accused by the wet nurse of having private dealings with Jianqiu were also brought up. They all said that Jianqiu held their family members' lives in his hands and that was why they had to obey his orders.

"Nonsense!" The queen turned her head suddenly, her eyes flashing with fear, and her hands holding the chair clenched, "Who bribed you to slander me!"

These people are all from the Uya family, and their lives and property are in her hands. Unless someone pays them a large sum of money, she can't think of any other reason for them to betray her.

The queen reacted quickly and said to Yinzhen with pleading eyes: "Your Majesty, I ask to search the residences of these servants who slandered me, as well as their families. They must have been bribed."

It must have taken a large sum of money, or even land deeds, to get them to betray their master, and there would definitely be evidence of their crime!

The Queen could no longer maintain her composure at this point. She stared at Concubine Yu and Ye Bingshang with her fists clenched.

"Check!" Yinzhen made a gesture to Xia Qian, and looked at Ye Bingshang and Concubine Yu secretly, and even did not let go of Concubine Qi.

The previous dynasty had been arguing endlessly over the issue of establishing a crown prince, and it was hard to guarantee that the concubines who had given birth to princes would not develop improper ambitions and take measures to eliminate dissidents.

Ye Bingshang let Yinzhen look at her. Ever since she watched the Queen poison the Fourth Prince, she knew that Yinzhen would definitely be suspicious of every beneficiary.

It suddenly started raining outside. The sound of the raindrops penetrated the eardrums, accompanied by the rising and falling heartbeats of everyone and their increasingly heavy breathing. Unease and anxiety filled the air.

After about an incense stick of time, Xia Qian came back to report: "Your Majesty, we did not find any unusual property or anything unusual in the residences of these palace servants or their families."

How can it be? !

The queen suddenly lost her strength, and slumped to the ground in despair, her eyes unfocused.

"I beg Your Majesty to do something for the Fourth Prince. I beg Your Majesty not to let the Fourth Prince die in agony!" The wet nurse cried and, taking advantage of the moment when everyone was relaxed, she rushed towards the Queen without a care in the world.

thump—

"what!!!"

The wet nurse used all the strength she had gained from doing rough labor throughout her life to hit the center of the Queen's back. The Queen was unable to react in time, and she screamed and was pushed forward and fell.

Yinzhen, who was sitting in front, was startled and was moved away by Xia Qian and Su Peisheng, so that the queen's forehead hit the tip of the chair corner.

There was another shrill scream. The tip of the horn left a scar from the queen's forehead to her scalp. Blood was flowing out. The pain was unbearable but she did not faint.

Living in misery.

"How dare you!" Yinzhen was shocked and angry. How could a wet nurse who served the Fourth Prince in the Old Summer Palace be so bold as to do such an act that did not distinguish between superiors and subordinates, and was a treasonous act.

"Drag him away and execute him immediately!"

"I am all alone, and only the Fourth Prince and I have depended on each other for more than ten years. Do you want me to watch the murderer who killed the Fourth Prince go free and continue to enjoy wealth and glory?"

As death was imminent, the wet nurse was no longer afraid of anything. She had no relatives to begin with, and she put all her energy into taking care of the Fourth Prince, hoping that the prince would give her a rich and prosperous old age in the future.

But now that the Fourth Prince has been poisoned to death, she is also responsible for failing to take good care of him and will definitely be the target of anger. And all this is only because of the Queen’s greed!

The wet nurse struggled and continued to yell, her voice hoarse and sharp like the wail of a wild beast: "The love between father and son is not as good as the master-servant relationship between this old slave and the Fourth Prince for more than ten years. No wonder the world says that the imperial family is the most ruthless, hahahaha..."

As she was being dragged roughly by several eunuchs, the wet nurse closed her eyes and thought lastly that what the nobleman said was really right. Instead of timidly waiting for her fate, she might as well give it a try with all her might.

Anyway, she couldn't take advantage of her worthless life and drag the high and mighty master to be her scapegoat. It was worth it!

"Emperor calm down!"

Except for the queen who was unable to take care of herself due to the pain, everyone else in the palace, from the imperial concubines to the eunuchs, was terrified, fearing that they would be the next to suffer.

In a rage, Yinzhen broke the bracelet with eighteen beads and glared at the kneeling concubines. After a few moments, he said, "Go back!"

He huffed in anger.

Ye Bingshang and An Lingrong looked at each other and decided that they had won the game.

Even though there is no conclusive physical evidence, from the internal revelations of Concubine Qi and An Lingrong, to Ye Bingshang's exaggeration, to Concubine Qi and Concubine Xin's mindless following suit, the Queen's credibility has dropped to the lowest level.

In the end, it was Concubine Yu, who had no connections or grudges with anyone in the harem but was familiar with the Fourth Prince in the Old Summer Palace, who delivered the fatal blow, and the credibility was instantly raised to the highest level.

Yinzhen's expression became solemn. The situation had changed from the intrigues among the women in the harem to a fight for the throne, which were very different in nature.

Moreover, the Queen could and dared to kill an adult prince right under his nose in the imperial palace, and left no physical evidence. So, in order to allow the Third Prince to succeed to the throne as soon as possible, he would be the next one to be poisoned.

When it came to her own safety, the empress dowager's attempts to protect her deceased wife, whom she always talked about, were of no use, and she showed no sympathy for the queen's miserable plight.

"Please ask the imperial physician to treat the queen, and then go to Shoukang Palace to invite the empress dowager to discuss the matter." Yinzhen ordered coldly.

Su Peisheng hesitated: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is still ill?"

Yinzhen rubbed his hands and turned his back. "Just say that this matter involves the position of the Queen. I have to inform the Queen Mother, which is a sign of respect. If the Queen Mother is really unwell, forget it."

"......Huh." Su Peisheng's face was bitter as he turned around. What if the empress dowager died of anger while he said this, who would be responsible?

Ye Bingshang had no idea about the content of the conversation between the family of three in Jingren Palace.

After she left Jingren Palace, all the concubines spontaneously gathered in Yongshou Palace again.

Ye Bingshang sat in the main seat at the top, while other concubines took their seats in order according to their respective ranks. It did not look like they were visiting the Yongshou Palace, but rather came to pay their respects.

You look at me, I look at you, and no one wants to speak first.

Ye Bingshang found it funny. She blew a sip of tea and said, "Why are all the sisters silent? Is it because the tea and snacks here are not to your taste?"

"No, no, the imperial concubine's tea is naturally excellent. I like it very much." Concubine Qi said as she picked up the teacup and took a big sip, then her face turned bitter.

His facial features were wrinkled together and his expression was very funny.

Look, even Concubine Qi noticed that the situation in the palace had changed, and began to respectfully address her as Imperial Concubine.
