"She is no longer worthy of being the head of Qixiang Palace. She has done so many wrong things. Let's lock her up in the cold palace and let her reflect on her mistakes.

Imperial Concubine, you, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Wan have all been wronged."

"Although your Majesty went out late, you really know everything about the palace. Did you listen to the report from your servants? Concubine Li has been talking about someone all the time." Nian Shilan took another step closer to the queen.

"I rushed here as soon as I got the news. How could I listen to the palace maid's report in such detail? I think you, Your Majesty, have heard it." The Queen looked calm and at the same time heartbroken, as if she had just learned everything.

"I was just asking, and I didn't expect the Empress to come. What a coincidence! Why don't you ask the Empress in person? It will be a good opportunity to help all the sisters solve their doubts."

The Queen's eyes instantly turned colder: "My Royal Highness, are you teaching me how to do things?"

"I dare not. I just feel that if the queen is present, I dare not interfere."

"Alright, Lipin's nonsense, who would believe it if it were told to others? Keep Lipin under observation first. I came here because I heard that the woman from Lingguan..."

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen." Wei Lin walked out.

"How is the Lingguan woman's child?"

The queen couldn't believe that the nearly seven-month-old male fetus suddenly died in the womb.

Obviously I have taken good care of it.

"Your Majesty, the Lingguan girl went into labor prematurely. Because she didn't call for help in time, the child suffocated to death in her womb, and the Lingguan girl also lost her life."

"Nonsense! If a woman is giving birth, she will scream in pain. Even if there is no one in the hall, are the two guards at the door deaf?"

The queen clenched her fists in anger and glanced at the two guards who were watching over her.

"Your Majesty, please understand. We two servants have been on guard outside the palace all night and indeed did not hear any movement inside. If the Lingguan woman was about to give birth, we servants would have heard it and sent for the imperial physician."

Another guard also testified to his innocence, saying, "This Lingguan girl has been quiet lately, every time the maidservant who brought her food comes out after finishing her meal. She then turns off the lights and goes to sleep. Today was no different. If it weren't for the summer heat and the stench of blood emanating from the palace, none of us would have known anything had happened to this Lingguan girl."

What the two guards said was the truth, and there was really no need for them to lie.

After all, there are palace maids serving Concubine Li in the Qixiang Palace. If there is any movement in the side hall, the eunuchs on duty in the corridor will be able to hear it.

But the servants kneeling on the ground nodded one after another after hearing what the two guards said, and it didn't seem like they were faking it.

The queen herself knew medicine, but if she said she didn't trust the doctors in the Imperial Hospital and wanted to personally examine the corpse of a woman with two lives, it would be absolutely impossible for her.

This is unbecoming of a queen.

"Jiang Fuhai, go to the Imperial Hospital and ask for another doctor."

Just as the Queen finished her words, a eunuch announced from outside the door: "The Queen Mother has arrived."

"Empress, what are you doing? I heard something happened in Qixiang Palace, so I rushed here. Why is Concubine Li sitting on the ground? Aren't you going to deal with Lingxiang in the room?"

The Queen Mother had already gone to bed when she heard that the Master of Qixiang Palace had gone mad and the one who was under house arrest had died. She had a bad feeling and hurried over.

Sure enough, the queen is still doing stupid things.

"Empress Dowager, the death of Lingguan's daughter may be an accident. I think..." Before the queen could finish her words, she was interrupted by the empress dowager.

"Amitabha, everything that Concubine Li confessed has reached my ears. As the queen, you should quickly clean up the bad habits in the harem. But you still want to seek justice for a criminal. I think you are really confused."

"But, Empress Dowager, the imperial physician said that the child in Lingxiang's belly is most likely a prince, which means it's the Emperor's child after all..."

"He killed Wanpin's son and tried to make Fuchapin suffer a difficult labor. She has done so many evil things. Even if the emperor spares her life, the King of Hell will come to take her. How can such a vicious woman like her be worthy of giving birth to the emperor's bloodline?"

"Tell the eunuchs to bring out a thin coffin and deal with her."

The Queen Mother had already made her decision, and the Queen could only purse her lips and retract her thoughts.

"Empress Dowager, Concubine Li just said that it seemed like someone asked her to do those things?" Nian Shilan spoke at the right time behind the Queen.

Facing Nian Shilan, the Queen Mother put on another kind smile: "You are a good child. Lipin did so many things, but nothing hurt you. Fortunately, you are a lucky person. Today, Lipin went crazy. How can we investigate the words of a madman? Just lock her up in the cold palace and let her fend for herself."

"Yes, I obey your order." Nian Shilan showed an aggrieved look and bowed.

"Today, thanks to you arriving at Qixiang Palace before the Queen to take charge of the situation, the Palace was not in chaos. You must also help the Queen in the same way in the future, okay?" the Queen Mother continued.

The Queen Mother gave face to Concubine Hua in front of others, demoted the Queen, and elevated herself, so she had to take it well.

"What happened today must all be kept to yourself. Don't spread it outside. If I get a whistle on it, I will definitely find that person and punish him severely. Do you all know?"

"Yes, we will follow your instructions." Concubine Jing, Concubine Hui and the others all lowered their heads.

"Well, everyone, get up. This Qixiang Palace is really not auspicious at all. After these two are dealt with, have the palace servants clean it up thoroughly, and then invite the monks from Baohua Palace to chant sutras and pray for the deceased's soul. Isn't it said that Qixiang Palace is haunted? I want to see what kind of demons and monsters dare to commit evil with the golden body of the Buddha present!"

The Queen Mother suddenly became stern in her words, and the warning at the end of her words seemed to be meant for people rather than ghosts.

Hua Fei knelt on the ground and smiled slightly, but no one noticed. Now that the matter was resolved, the ghost naturally had to be sent away.

However, today, Concubine Li was completely scared crazy by the little ghost, and this little ghost was not arranged by her.

……

After arranging everything and admonishing the concubines, the empress dowager returned to her Shoukang Palace.

When all the concubines stood up, Zhen Huan happened to meet Fucha's eyes. Fucha nodded at her, then took Yingtao's hand and turned to leave.

Zhen Huan looked at Fu Cha with calm eyes, but she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Why did she feel that there was a sense of joy in Fu Cha's eyes that was a sure win? It was very secret, but she felt it.

Moreover, it seemed that Fucha was looking at her on purpose.
