Rong Fei is not honored

Chapter 47 Find out the real culprit

After waking up, Nara Zhizhu subconsciously touched her belly. Her originally slightly bulging belly had become flat, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

How could it be possible? Isn't this Yinzhi, her eldest prince? How could she not be saved? These days, her stomach often aches, but she thought it was because this body had not developed well. In addition, medicine is three-point poison, and she was worried that taking too much Chinese medicine would be bad, so she didn't say it.

She firmly believed that the child would be born and grow up safely, so even though she was in so much pain at the banquet, she did not say a word. She did not want to cause dissatisfaction among the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

But how come her child was gone? Nara Zhizhu couldn't believe it was true. She had never thought that she didn't know that period of history, that this child was not Yinzhi at all, and that history could be changed.

"Master, are you okay?" Qingsu saw that the master had woken up, and stepped forward and asked carefully, "Why is it you? Where is Qingdai?" Compared to Qingsu, Nara Zhizhu trusted Qingdai more, and Qingdai had always been considerate, so how could she be missing now? Qingsu's body trembled, and she whispered, "Sister Qingdai has been taken away."

"What did you say?" Nara Zhizhu was shocked and angry. How could Qingdai be taken away? Could it be her? No, this was impossible. Nara Zhizhu looked at Qingsu viciously, as if she wanted to eat her. "Where is the Emperor? I want to see the Emperor! I want the Emperor to make the decision for me."

"The Emperor is with Concubine Ma Jia." Qing Su was in a dilemma. Concubine Ma Jia was not in good condition, and the Emperor was guarding her. Moreover, the Emperor's expression was very scary, so Qing Su really didn't dare to ask for help.

"Ma Jia, it's Ma Jia again. Yes, that's right, it must be her, it must be Ma Jia who killed my child."

Kangxi had just heard from the palace servants that Concubine Nara had woken up, and thinking that she had lost her child, he wanted to come and see her. But when he heard these words as soon as he came in, he turned around and left in anger.

Ji Nai was in trouble too, why did they decide that it was her fault right after she woke up? If she really had that kind of brain, she would have found the evidence so quickly, and she probably wouldn't have lost her child. If there was no evidence, why did they have to involve Ji Nai? Why, is she so easy to bully? If you want to harm her, then do it. If you want to throw dirty water on her, then do it.

Seeing that Kangxi came back so soon, the Empress Dowager did not ask any more questions. After all, a dead child is not as good as a living one. She just quietly waited for the results of Liang Jiugong's investigation.

This matter has caused a big stir. It happened in public, which is a slap in the face of the Aixinjueluo family. There must be a result. And now Aobai and a group of royal family members are still waiting outside, wanting to know the real culprit and strongly demanding severe punishment. It is really not easy to deal with it privately. However, the light in the eyes of the Empress Dowager flickered. With Aobai around, will she still expose what Hesheli did?

The Empress Dowager quickly calculated the gains and losses in her heart. Perhaps, this was an opportunity to push Sony to the opposite side of Oboi and force him to no longer be able to protect himself.

"Your Majesty." Liang Jiugong walked in with some hesitation on his face. "I found out that Concubine Nara couldn't eat a few days ago because of pregnancy reactions. In order to please the master, Qingdai offered a few bottles of egg yolk paste."

"Is there something wrong with the egg yolk paste?" "Yes, the imperial physician has checked it. It's not the egg yolk, but the crab roe. Crab roe is a very cold thing. Concubine Nara relied on this paste for her meals during those days, so she used too much and hurt the baby in her belly."

"Although crab roe is precious, it is not hard to find, and it does not attract attention. It is a very thoughtful thing. Can you find out the origin of this crab roe?"

"According to Qingdai, these crab roe pastes were given to her by Xiao Anzi, a fellow villager of hers."

"Xiao Anzi?" Kangxi hesitated. "It is Xiao Anzi beside Concubine Ma Jia."

There was an uproar in the palace. Could it be that Concubine Ma Jia really did it? She got into trouble just to clear herself of the matter.

"Where is Xiao Anzi?" "He's waiting outside the palace." "Let him in, I want to ask him in person." Kangxi didn't believe that Ji Nai would do such a thing. Instead of letting people speculate in the future that he was hiding the truth for the sake of the crown prince, it would be better to get to the bottom of the matter in front of everyone.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"Do you know Qingdai who is beside Concubine Nara?"

"Yes, he is my fellow countryman."

"So it was you who really gave Qingdai a few bottles of crab roe paste?"

"Crab roe paste? Your Majesty, how can you say that? Isn't that egg yolk paste? And it was clearly given to me by Qingdai."

"You said that Qingdai gave the things to you, not that you gave them to Qingdai?"

"That's right, I dare not lie."

"This is strange. You two said exactly the opposite. But is there anyone to testify for you? If no one else knows, who would know who is telling the truth and who is lying?" The Queen interrupted. She suddenly felt that this seemed like a good opportunity, a good opportunity to throw Concubine Ma Jia into the abyss.

"No." It was impolite for two servants to meet each other, so they had to avoid people. How could they be seen in a crowded place?

"Since there is no witness, I'm afraid that Ma Jia's suspicion as a concubine cannot be cleared."

"Shut up." Kangxi directly scolded the queen. He felt that he was becoming more and more intolerant of the queen's little thoughts.

The queen's face froze, tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried hard to hold them back. She didn't understand why the emperor would do this to her. Could it be that this child was so important? The emperor scolded her for him and protected his biological mother like this.

"Since you said it was given by Qingdai, then what happened afterwards? Did you keep it directly in your room after you took it back?" The Empress Dowager was also dissatisfied with the Queen, so she ignored her and asked.

"No, after I returned to the palace, I thought this thing might be useful to our master, so I offered a bottle."

In fact, this is the tradition of Zhongcui Palace. When servants get something from outside, they always bring it to the master and let her take a look. Ji Nai originally set up the rule to prevent someone from bringing poisonous things in, thinking that he would test it with the poison-proof beads every time to be safe.

Although the egg yolk paste was non-toxic, Ji Nai still left a bottle just in case.

"That doesn't prove that what you said is true." The queen was still unwilling to accept it.

Kangxi ignored her and winked at Liang Jiugong. Soon after Liang Jiugong left, he came back and nodded to Kangxi. The Empress Dowager knew that Kangxi had arranged people in Zhongcui Palace, so it seemed that what the servant said was true.

"That's right. It's probably because Concubine Ma Jia used this crab roe paste that something went wrong." The Empress Dowager made the final decision. "Otherwise, even if she really wanted to do something, she wouldn't risk her own child."

"But this so-called egg yolk paste must have been done intentionally by someone. Your Majesty might as well stop here for now." The Empress Dowager mentioned, "After all, Oboi and others are still outside the palace." Kangxi nodded. He also understood that it would not sound good if this matter got out.

He sent someone to spread the word that the concubines had eaten crab roe by mistake, which was why the incident happened. But how could Oboi be willing to let it go? This reason was simply misleading. If he didn't investigate it thoroughly, I'm afraid those people in the court would still think it was his fault.

Kangxi was so angry that veins popped out, but he really couldn't do anything about Oboi now.
