PFC Chapter 449 Six Palace Seal
Chapter 449 Six Palace Seal
Emperor Kun gently comforted Concubine Xiao.
"My Lady, I will not let you suffer any injustice for nothing. Okay, go sit down first."
He motioned to Concubine Xiao to sit down.
At this time,
Queen Qin felt dizzy and realized that she couldn't explain the matter clearly. She stood up and knelt down in front of Emperor Kun and the Queen Mother.
"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, I am truly wronged! The people in my palace have all been with me for decades.
They are loyal and would never do such a thing as poisoning and murder. What happened today is really too strange.
I beg the Queen Mother to clear my name with my name."
Concubine Xiao suddenly stood up and looked at her, and said condescendingly,
"Your Highness, what you said is interesting. Could it be that this abortion drug has grown legs and run to your Kunning Palace?!"
"you?"
Queen Qin was speechless.
*
The Queen Mother glanced at Emperor Kun, who remained silent, and said to Queen Qin,
"Queen, please stand up! I believe in you. Such an obvious and clumsy move is really not good for you.
But don't worry, the emperor will find out the truth. He will never let you be like the prince, unable to defend yourself and being slaughtered by others!"
"Mother, please do not make irresponsible comments on state affairs."
"Okay, okay! Mother, please don't say anything to my poor grandson."
The Queen Mother said angrily, and then said to Emperor Kun,
"Your Majesty, you saw it too! Although the poisoning trick was lousy, it worked. It actually made the Queen speechless and put her in a dangerous situation.
That is to say, I have lived with the Queen for decades and I know her character. Otherwise, I really can't tell this time. Will the Empress really change her master? !
But I believe in the Queen. How are you going to deal with this?"
Emperor Kun felt a headache after hearing this, and consoled the Queen Mother,
"Mother, please don't worry about this matter. I will investigate it thoroughly."
*
But Concubine Xiao stood up and insisted,
"Your Majesty, I will not be allowed to get away with the punishment I have endured today. Your Majesty must give me an explanation. The facts are before us, and the evidence is irrefutable.
If this hadn't happened to the Empress, I think every concubine would have been banished to the cold palace by now, right?"
"Mr. Xiao?"
The Queen Mother slammed the table and scolded her loudly.
"emperor?"
Concubine Xiao stood there with her big belly, her neck stiff and aggrieved.
"Empress Dowager, what's wrong with me seeking justice for myself and my unborn child? Your Majesty, I feel so wronged!"
As she spoke, Concubine Xiao covered her stomach and started crying.
"My Lady, please don't cry! The Emperor is wise and will definitely give us justice."
Several concubines who tried to curry favor with her hurriedly spoke out to comfort her.
There was a moment of noise in the inner hall.
*
The Empress Dowager's face was gloomy, and there was some helplessness in her cloudy eyes as she looked at Queen Qin.
After a long while, the Queen Mother suddenly said in a deep voice,
"I heard that the Queen nearly lost her life last time due to a heart attack. Your body should not be overworked again!
When you are sick, you need to calm down and rest well. Queen, from now on, you will follow me to worship Buddha!"
"what?"
All the concubines fell silent in surprise.
Emperor Kun and Empress Qin were also stunned when they heard this.
Soon Queen Qin reacted and bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother.
"Yes, Queen Mother, your daughter-in-law obeys your order."
Emperor Kun understood that his mother wanted to protect the queen, and he felt helpless. Thinking of the prince's request and concern before he left, he stood up and said,
"Alright! Since the Queen is not feeling well, let's go to the Cining Palace to accompany the Queen Mother to worship Buddha and rest for a while! Defei, Xianfei, and Wan Guipin listen to your orders."
*
Concubine De, Concubine Xian and Concubine Wan were startled when they heard this, and hurriedly knelt down and said in unison,
"I will obey your order."
"The Queen is not feeling well and should not work hard. You three will take charge of the affairs of the six palaces on behalf of the Queen for the time being. Please do not cause me any more trouble."
As soon as Emperor Kun finished speaking, Concubine Xiao walked towards him quickly, grabbed his arm without caring about anything and exclaimed,
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that I almost killed two people, mother and child?"
Emperor Kun suppressed his displeasure and pretended not to hear Concubine Xiao's protest. He still looked at the three people kneeling on the ground.
*
The three people who were entrusted with important tasks were extremely surprised when they heard it. They didn't expect that a big pie would fall from the sky and hit them today.
They didn't care who was poisoned or not, and ignored Concubine Xiao's jumping and getting angry. They all kowtowed to Emperor Kun and said,
"I obey your order. I will live up to your high regard."
"Okay, step back!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Defei and the other two stood up happily.
When Concubine Xiao saw that Emperor Kun responded to her protest with a soothing look, he simply ignored her.
Instead, he smiled and nodded at the three women.
A surge of jealousy suddenly rose from the bottom of her heart. She held her belly and screamed "ouch ouch", which frightened her two senior palace maids and asked in panic,
"My Lady, what's wrong with you?"
Emperor Kun also stepped forward and supported her.
*
Concubine Xiao held her stomach and cried,
"Your Majesty, please feel it. Our son is unhappy. He is making a fuss that the murderer who killed my mother and me must be severely punished today! You must not be partial today."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Kun's face darkened, and he began to feel somewhat disgusted with Concubine Xiao's persistence.
The Queen Mother had given up her job and the Queen had lost her power over the harem, but this woman was still insisting on doing this!
But seeing that Concubine Xiao was determined to achieve her goal, the concubines in the room all looked at him.
For the first time, Emperor Kun felt a headache about having so many women.
*
Just when things were going badly for the Empress Dowager and Emperor Kun.
Suddenly, a figure came forward and knelt down in front of Queen Qin, startling everyone.
Queen Qin pointed at her and said,
"Qiaoyin, why are you doing this?"
The great palace maid Miaoyin kowtowed three times, "bang bang bang", and then said as if she was ready to die.
"My Queen, I am so sorry!"
After saying this, Miaoyin crawled to the front of Emperor Kun and the Empress Dowager, kowtowed three times, then stood up and said,
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, the words that the Queen said just now when she was protecting us servants have made me wake up, and I regret what I have done.
I was wrong! I was really wrong! I knew that if I told the truth, I would be sentenced to death.
However, today, even if I have to die, I will tell the truth, just to repay the Queen's trust in me for the past twenty years!"
*
After saying this, Miaoyin wiped away her tears and said loudly,
"I was the one who administered the abortion drug. But I only administered it once today. I swear."
When Queen Qin heard this, she couldn't believe it and cried out,
"What? Miaoyin! Do you know what you are talking about?"
Emperor Kun waved his hand and asked,
"Let her finish. Why did you do this? Who told you to do this?"
