"younger sister!"
"Little Master!"
Concubine Shu and the palace maids were in chaos, and each of them wanted to help Xu Xiyue.
No one touched Xu Xiyue, and Xu Xiyue stood firm. It was Lin Yuejiao who supported her.
Lin Yuejiao arrived just in time and appeared next to Xu Xiyue, and pulled Xu Xiyue up.
She breathed a sigh of relief, luckily nothing happened.
If this falls, the child will be safe.
I have to say, Xu Xiyue's unlucky physique is so bad that she can fall down while walking.
Everyone was still in shock and no one thought about how Xu Xiyue managed to stand firm after falling backwards.
Only Xu Xiyue knew that the fairy had saved her life again.
"Quick, go and get Doctor Chen." Concubine Shu ordered the palace maid anxiously. Sister Xu was pregnant and there could be no room for any mistakes.
The palace servants were in a panic, and Concubine Shu hurriedly sent Xu Xiyue back to Tinglanxuan.
Lin Yuejiao was about to follow when she felt something wrong with her feet and discovered that the ground was a little slippery.
"Is this... oil?"
She squatted down, stretched out a finger, and gently rubbed the ground with the tip of her finger. It was shiny and oily, really oily.
"No wonder Xu Xiyue fell down, it turned out to be human error." Lin Yuejiao murmured to herself.
[So the host should pay more attention to Xu Xiyue's situation. Xu Xiyue is now pregnant. The host should not only protect her to give birth to the child smoothly, but also help Xu Xiyue to consolidate her favor. ]
[Ten months of pregnancy is a long time, and there are many beauties in the harem. The emperor will forget his old love when he has a new one. If he doesn't consolidate his favor, the host and Xu Xiyue's previous efforts will be in vain.]
The system reminded her earnestly, and even if Lin Yuejiao didn't say it, she knew it in her heart.
I was so busy with the arrangements for opening the ancient shop a few days ago that I forgot about it. Now that the shop is managed by Xu Zhiyu, I can focus all my energy on Xu Xiyue from now on.
Lin Yuejiao was about to go see Xu Xiyue when suddenly a palace maid came over stealthily. Seeing that there was no one around, she immediately took out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped the oil off the ground.
The little palace maid wiped it quickly, thinking that there was no one around, but she didn't know that there was an invisible person standing in front of her.
The little palace maid quickly wiped off the oil on the ground and left in a hurry.
[Host, hurry up and follow that little palace maid. You may find out who harmed Xu Xiyue.]
As the system spoke, Lin Yuejiao had already caught up, following the little palace maid at a leisurely pace.
The little palace maid stopped at a remote place, looked back, and seeing that there was no one there, she patted the vermilion palace wall.
It was three rhythmic taps, not random taps.
Then, Lin Yuejiao saw a dog hole under the palace wall, and a purse was thrown through the dog hole.
The maid picked up the purse, threw the handkerchief she had just used to wipe the oil into the dog hole, and left in a hurry.
"Quite cautious!"
Lin Yuejiao sighed, thinking that the little palace maid was going to meet the mastermind behind the scenes, but she didn't expect to see anyone.
She moved to the other side and saw a woman dressed as a palace maid running away, so she quickly followed.
…………
Lanxi Palace!
Lin Yuejiao followed the palace maid named Mo Hua into the palace, where she smelled a strange odor and felt so nauseous that she wanted to vomit.
"What's that smell?" She immediately covered her mouth and nose.
The system said: [Cat corpse! ]
"???"
No way, the sick beauty left the cat's corpse in the room?
Lin Yuejiao didn't understand. She only saw Huipin sitting in front of the window with disheveled hair and wearing pajamas.
There was a long brocade box on the table, which contained a cat's corpse. The peculiar smell came from the box.
The palace maids serving in the palace were all so choked up that they looked miserable, but they endured it. Lin Yuejiao really admired their endurance.
"My Lady, the oil spilled on the Imperial Garden has been cleaned up."
Mo Hua walked to Huipin's side and said, "Noble Lady Xu...didn't slip!"
"What did you say?" Huipin's face changed, and her fingertips gripped the table tightly, making a crackling sound.
Lin Yuejiao got goosebumps when she heard this.
"So her baby is fine? How can she be fine? She should have slipped and miscarried, and let my little Ling'er pay for her life!"
Bang!
Huipin angrily swept the tea tray off the table, and the teapot and teacups broke into pieces on the floor.
The palace maids were silent, and even Mo Hua didn't dare to speak.
"To kill Xu Xiyue for a cat, and to use Xu Xiyue's child to pay for the cat's life, is that crazy?"
Lin Yuejiao was unbelievable and thought that Concubine Hui might really be a little crazy.
Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its perpetrator. Even if we want to avenge the cat, we should look for the culprit, not the innocent Xu Xiyue.
[The cat was given to Concubine Hui by her lover. She treated the cat as her lover and loved it as her life. But the cat died in Tinglanxuan, so she must have hatred towards Xu Xiyue.]
"Sweetheart?" Lin Yuejiao was surprised. "Does Huipin not love the emperor? Didn't she enter the palace willingly?"
[Yes! But Huipin's lover died of illness before she entered the palace. The cat was Huipin's sustenance of thoughts. Now that her thoughts are gone, how can Huipin not go crazy? ]
That being said, it's a bit pitiful.
Lin Yuejiao sighed, "It seems that we have to find out who poisoned her as soon as possible. We can't let Xu Xiyue take the blame!"
Xu Xiyue escaped this time, but who knows what tricks Huipin will use next time?
Lin Yuejiao left Lanxi Palace immediately. The strong smell in the palace made her unable to stay there for a moment.
Huipin seemed not to smell the strange smell. She touched the cat in the brocade box, with a hint of attachment in her crying eyes.
Xiao Ling'er, now that he's gone, are you going to leave me too?
With a pale and sad face, Huipin coughed a few times and a tear rolled down the corner of her eye.
Mo Hua couldn't help but say, "My lady, the weather is hot, the little bell can't be kept for too long, let it rest in peace."
After saying this, Huipin screamed like a possessed person:
"Nonsense, it's clearly alive! It's not dead, my little Ling'er is still alive... It's all because of Concubine Xu, yes, she was the one who killed little Ling'er, she deserves to die, she deserves to die..."
Huipin was shouting like a madman, and then she started crying while holding the brocade box, as if she was crying for her dead lover, which frightened Mo Hua and others.
…………
Tinglanxuan!
Doctor Chen left after the consultation. Both Xu Xiyue and the child were fine. There was no need to prescribe any prescription to protect the pregnancy. She was just a little frightened.
The emperor was still busy with official duties in the Xuanzheng Hall and had no time to visit Xu Xiyue, so he just sent Eunuch Zhang to check on her.
The Queen also sent people over, and when they learned that Concubine Xu was fine, everyone went back to report.
In the end, only Concubine Shu remained in the room. Besides her and Xu Xiyue, there were only two palace maids, Tinghe and Luluo.
Concubine Shu took Xu Xiyue's hand and said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, my sister is fine, otherwise I would have been unable to sleep or eat in peace for the rest of my life."
Lin Yuejiao heard this as soon as she arrived. Concubine Shu's tone was full of apology, "For safety reasons, you should stay in Tinglanxuan to take care of your pregnancy and don't go anywhere else."
Whenever she thought about what happened in the Imperial Garden, Concubine Shu felt uneasy.
Xu Xiyue was about to speak, but suddenly she heard the fairy say, "Xiyue, your slip was not an accident. Concubine Hui had someone pour oil on the ground in the Imperial Garden, wanting you to slip and pay for her cat's death."
Xu Xiyue's heart sank in vain, and anger appeared on her face. What a wicked Concubine Hui, she actually secretly harmed her.
"younger sister?"
Seeing Xu Xiyue was angry and silent, Concubine Shu mistakenly thought that Xu Xiyue was angry with her, and blamed herself, "Are you blaming me for asking you to go to the Imperial Garden to appreciate the flowers today, and almost hurting you?"
