Just as he was talking, Nian's face suddenly changed, and he said to Bai Zhi: "Go down first, you can't come in without a summons from the palace."

Bai Zhi retreated as she said, and closed the door properly, leaving only Nian Qiulan in the bedroom, she shouted in a low voice: "What are you doing?"

"Nianshi, give me back your body quickly?" Jiang Ning's angry voice appeared out of thin air.

She didn't expect Nian's resentment to be so heavy. As soon as she drank the medicine, Nian tried desperately to break through the suppression. The moment the child flowed out of her body happened to be when she was weakest. Nian Shi took away the control of his body.

Nian sneered, "Give it back to you? This is my body. I gave it to you in order to let you avenge me. In the end, you not only failed to take good care of Fu Pei, but also let him go so early. How can I Can I still trust you?"

Jiang Ning said "I'm sorry" guiltily, and then said: "It's true that I was negligent about Fupei's matter, but he left one day earlier, it's good for you and him, your body is weak, and you really can't bear to have a child .”

But Nian still couldn't listen, she was already surrounded by hatred and was completely stunned, "I want to avenge myself, and I want Concubine Xi to experience the pain of losing her son!"

"How can you be sure that Concubine Xi is the real one?" Jiang Ning asked.

"If it's not her, who else, who would plan to plot against me like this, even an unborn child!"

Nian Qiulan questioned her hysterically, and in the end, she even wanted to force Jiang Ning out of her body completely.

Jiang Ning had no choice but to use force to regain his body, and tricked Nian Qiulan into a deep sleep, and he was relieved.

At this time, Concubine Xi was laughing happily in Jingren Palace, "Nian, this bastard, still wants to fight with this palace, thinking that it would be good to keep a close eye on him. That little trick, if Bengong hadn't shown mercy, she would have turned into a pile of loess by now."

Zhu Cui, the palace maid next to Concubine Xi, also covered her mouth and smiled: "So what if Nian Shi is a noble concubine? She is stupid, and she can't even keep a child. The only thing she won't be able to keep in the future is her position as a noble concubine."

"That sweet-scented osmanthus, let's take care of it." Concubine Xi said slowly.

Zhu Cui said seriously: "It's all taken care of. Although the parents of sweet-scented osmanthus are gone, she still has a adoptive mother who brought up sweet-scented osmanthus. Now that foster mother has been secretly guarded by our people, and that sweet-scented osmanthus is not there yet." Have the guts to betray the empress. This time I can get rid of Du Heng who is beside Nianshi, and then the empress will replace Nianshi with her cronies. If she succeeds, getting rid of Nianshi in the future will be twice the result with half the effort."

Concubine Xi held a silk handkerchief in her hand, dabbed it on her lips, and said with a smile: "Good job."

"What is Er Niang talking about? So happy."

Concubine Xi looked up in surprise, and saw a young man in brocade clothes walking in, about twelve or thirteen years old, with a yellow belt tied around his waist.

"Hongli!" Concubine Xi shouted.

"My son greets Er Niang." The fourth elder brother Hongli saluted respectfully.

Hongli now lives in Yuqing Palace and has to go to Shangshufang to go to school every day, so it is rare for Concubine Xi to see him. However, Yuqing Palace is the palace built by the holy ancestor for the deposed prince Yunfeng.Hongli being nominated by the emperor to live in Yuqing Palace is enough to explain Yongzheng's attitude. Even if there is no decree, Hongli is now an invisible prince.

The present suffering is just to wait for the future glory, Concubine Xi thought: Hongli is the much-loved grandson of the holy ancestor, this is an advantage that no one else can take away, if there is no accident, her son will definitely take the throne in the future !

Concubine Xi pulled her son down in front of her, looked at it carefully for a few times, then asked about Hongli's basic necessities of life, food, housing, and transportation, and mentioned the Shang's study room.

Hongli answered one by one, and said: "The emperor came to Shang's study today, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, and even taught his son his homework."

Concubine Xi asked with a smile: "Then did you answer it?"

"All the answers have been answered. Huang Ama boasted that his son is doing well in learning. The third brother and the fifth brother failed to answer, and the emperor punished them." Hongli said, a little smug.

When Concubine Xi heard this, she couldn't help being filled with pride, my son is amazing, what are Concubine Qi's Hongshi and Concubine Yu's Hongzhou!

"Concubine Nian lost the child in her stomach, and your Huang Ama is sad, you have to behave well and share your worries with Huang Ama." Concubine Xi said.

Hongli nodded: "I know."

At this time, Nian Qiulan was discussing Du Heng's matter with Bai Zhi. The queen took Du Heng and the little palace lady Osmanthus osmanthus away without asking about the matter of incense that day.

It has been two days now, and there is no news from Jingren Palace, and they don't know what happened to Du Heng.

A eunuch outside shouted loudly: "The empress is here—"

Nian Qiulan hurriedly asked someone to straighten her slightly messy temple hair, and after a while, Ulanara came in.

She supported Bai Zhi's hand and remembered, the queen hurriedly said: "Excuse me, you are inconvenient, so you don't need to salute, just lie down."

Nian Qiulan didn't object, and sat on the bed according to her words. In order to make her lean more comfortably, Bai Zhi added two soft pillows behind her.

The maid moved an embroidered pier by the bed, the empress sat down, looked at Nian Qiulan's very haggard face: "It's only been two days, my sister has lost a lot of weight, you have to take good care of yourself."

"Thank you, Empress Empress, for your compassion."

The queen asked her about her diet, and then pointed out the purpose of coming here today, "I took Osmanthus and Du Heng away for interrogation, and Osmanthus insisted that Du Heng let her into the bedroom, but Du Heng said that Osmanthus planted her Framed, but neither of them has witnesses, so the case has not progressed so far. According to the rules in this palace, slaves who betray the master are not allowed to stay. This palace wants to kill the two of them directly. I wonder what my sister will do?"

It is better to kill one thousand by mistake than to let one go, this is the survival rule of the deep palace, but Nian Qiulan does not believe that Du Heng will betray her.

"Du Heng was brought into the palace by my concubine's natal family. I have been with my concubine since I was a child. I don't believe that she would do such a thing."

The queen looked at her, "According to what you mean, you suspect that sweet-scented osmanthus?"

Nian Qiulan said sternly: "To be honest, although Du Heng is usually careless, she has never made a mistake in what my concubine ordered her to do. I believe it is impossible for her to know that my concubine is pregnant and it is not appropriate to use spices. Let a maid who has just been assigned to Yikun Palace enter the inner hall to burn incense. The concubine does not know who ordered the sweet-scented osmanthus. Du Heng is the concubine's close servant. The concubine is used to her. If you take an arm from a concubine, this person can meet you if you want to."

The queen nodded: "I know, no matter what, this sweet-scented osmanthus can't be kept, but what Du Heng said, there is no definite evidence to prove that she has no motive for committing the crime, so I will punish her to do hard labor in the clothing bureau first. The rest will be discussed after the matter is clarified."

Nian Qiulan covered her mouth and coughed twice, then said weakly, "Thank you, Empress."

The queen looked at her and sighed: "My sister should also consider Fuhui, take good care of her, you are still young, and you will have children."

The sticky pole was used by Yongzheng to control the court, never used it on the female family members of the harem, but this time, he made an exception for the first time, his heirs have never been abundant, and Nian's child is what he has been looking forward to.I didn't expect that someone would dare to risk the death penalty and hurt the dragonborn.

The efficiency of the sticking rod is extremely high, and the result of Nian Guifei's miscarriage came out.

Lu Zhiyuan, the head of the Imperial Hospital, said that the fragrance smells elegant and easily overlooked. The specific ingredients in it are not clear for the time being, but Lu Zhiyuan confirmed that there are five kinds of extremely precious medicinal materials in it, and some of them are not even available in the Imperial Hospital. It is very difficult to prepare this kind of spice. After searching along the road of medicinal materials, the hidden guards found many clues and listed them all one by one.

Seeing the first article, Yongzheng's blood surged up.

"The empress's own brother, Wuge, went to Renjitang in Beijing to buy it three months ago..."

"Concubine Qi's relatives, I went to Puji Hall in the suburbs of Beijing to buy it two months ago..."

"Brother Xi Concubine, I went to the Renji Hall in the suburbs of Beijing to buy it before April..."

"Father of Concubine Yu, I went to Puji Hall in the suburbs of Beijing to buy it a month ago..."

The list not only involved high-ranking concubines in the harem, but also those low-status nobles were often present, and even official women had people from their families to buy medicine.

"Is this what you found out?" Yongzheng said angrily.

If it is really checked according to the above, wouldn't the whole harem become the murderer of Nian Shi?

That's all, the queen will never do such a thing, after more than [-] years of marriage, doesn't he know the queen's character, let alone the queen will lay hands on an unborn child.

The leader at the stick stick lowered his head: "The slave is ashamed."

Every time they investigate, it feels like someone has led them to a dead end, and suddenly left them with a clue when they are at the end of their rope. This feeling of being played by someone is extremely uncomfortable.These two pharmacies, Pujitang and Renjitang, are well-known black stores in the capital. When outsiders come to buy medicines, they never keep an account. The medicines they buy are extremely precious. Many high-ranking officials and dignitaries will buy one or two to go home and stock up. It is not easy to check.

"Get off."

With a sway, the person at the sticking pole disappeared out of thin air in Qianqing Palace.

There was silence in Qianqing Palace, Yongzheng covered his face with one hand and leaned on the dragon chair.

Su Peisheng tiptoed in with the head of the House of Internal Affairs. The head of the House of Internal Affairs held up a tray with several nameplates neatly arranged on it. The head of the House of Internal Affairs asked sharply, "Your Majesty, do you want to turn over the cards today?"

Yongzheng frowned, and subconsciously wanted to wave his hands. As soon as he started to move, he stopped, glanced at the green-headed card, and said, "How is the imperial concubine?"

Su Peisheng replied: "It's still the same, it's a lot haggard, and people are listless. Today, the empress went to persuade her, and she is already willing to eat some porridge."

Yongzheng said in a deep voice, "I'm going to see her."

Su Peisheng showed joy, and shouted: "Show the Yikun Palace."

Nian Qiulan was playing with Fuhui in her arms. Fuhui is over one year old now and can only speak a few simple words.

"You're not healthy yet, how can you hug Fuhui!" Yongzheng carried Fuhui over and handed it to the nanny.

Fuhui was struggling in the nanny's arms, probably wanting to play with Er Niang, Nian Qiulan said: "I have nothing to do, I just feel that Fuhui has been neglected recently, and I want to take a good look at him. The emperor asked my concubine to come again Hug him."

Unable to bear Nian Qiulan's pleading, Yongzheng took Fuhui back from the nanny's hand, but he didn't hand Fuhui into Nian Qiulan's arms, saying, "I'll just hold it."

Nian Qiulan glanced at him with eyes like water, and then started talking and laughing with her son.

Yongzheng watched the mother and son playing, at this moment, Nian Qiulan's pale face was also stained with a little blush, and she was even more beautiful, and a rare smile appeared on his own face, and he said, "I haven't seen you in this body for a long time. Well, seeing that the weather is getting hot, I plan to go to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat. The Old Summer Palace has a beautiful scenery, and the mountains and rivers nourish people. It is also very good for your body. I plan to let you live in Pinghu Qiuyue. .”

Nian Qiulan looked into his eyes, her deep pupils reflected her figure, Nian Qiulan smiled: "The emperor is so kind to his concubines."
