Upon hearing Concubine Qi's words, Mr. Qi hurriedly knelt forward, pulled Concubine Qi's clothes and said: "I beg you to have mercy on me, she is just your master. If your concubine is angry, I will let her do rough work, please." Please, please don’t let her go to the Criminal Punishment Department.”
Concubine Qi looked at Mr. Qi, who still had the same air of dignity as before, and felt extremely satisfied.
"Your Majesty Qi, it's good that you can protect yourself, but don't make yourself miserable just after I let you go."
After saying that, he looked at his palace servant and said, "I won't take him away yet."
Then he left Chuxiu Palace.
"Your Majesty, something happened in Chuxiu Palace."
As soon as Concubine Qi left Chuxiu Palace, everyone outside basically knew about Concubine Qi's anger in Chuxiu Palace.
Songzhi quickly told Nian Shilan the news.
"Chu Xiu Palace? What trouble has Mr. Qi caused?"
Nian Shilan heard that he was Qi Guiren, but he didn't take it seriously at all. He just thought he was just listening to the excitement.
"It was Concubine Qi who went to Chuxiu Palace for some reason and got very angry. I heard that she beat up Qi Gui and even sent one of Qi Gui's girls to the Criminal Punishment Department."
Songzhi said sarcastically: "They can also fight among themselves, it's fun to think about it."
But Nian Shilan frowned when he heard it.
How long has the Queen been grounded? Can they be so blatantly dissatisfied with each other?
No, Nian Shilan thought about it, maybe it was related to the Shu Yue thing he mentioned a few days ago.
"This is no small matter."
Nian Shilan said: "Go and bring Mr. Qi here, and then call Concubine Qi over. I am in charge of the affairs of the harem, so I have to know what the cause of the matter is. Then call Concubine Jing, and Concubine Hui." Now that she is about to give birth, there is no need to worry about this kind of thing."
"Yes, I will send someone to tell you now."
The first person to come was Concubine Jing, because when Songzhi asked someone to pass it on, Concubine Jing had already arrived at Yikun Palace.
Feng Ruozhao also heard about Chu Xiu Palace, thinking that Nian Shilan would ask about it, so he hurried to Yikun Palace as soon as he heard about it.
"Greetings to the imperial concubine."
Feng Ruozhao paid his respects to Nian Shilan according to the rules.
Nian Shilan nodded and said, "Get up and sit down."
"You came so quickly, you must have heard about Chu Xiu Palace."
"Yes, as soon as I heard something happened, I thought you would ask something, so I rushed over."
Feng Ruozhao nodded and said: "Sending the palace maid to the Sentence Department is not a big deal, but Concubine Qi had someone beat Mr. Qi. This is no small matter."
In fact, both of them understood that it was not a big deal for a concubine to punish a noble person. Otherwise, why would no one take care of Zhen Huan when she was punished?
It's just that these two people are the ones Nian Shilan suspected of poisoning Princess Shu Yue, so this matter is not a small matter.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Qi Guiren came.
"Concubine, please give your regards to the imperial concubine, the concubine."
As soon as Nian Shilan saw Qi Guiren's face covered with a veil, she knew that she must be seriously injured.
"Get up."
Nian Shilan and Feng Ruozhao looked at each other. Nian Shilan pretended to be distressed and said: "I heard that Concubine Qi went to your palace and lost her temper. The way I looked at you, I'm afraid you were hurt." Isn’t it light?”
"Concubine's injuries are nothing. I can't say what Concubine Qi wants to hear. I accept the punishment voluntarily."
What Mr. Qi said was a grievance, and no one could listen to it voluntarily.
"Since the Imperial Concubine and I know this, we won't let you suffer this injustice in vain. If you have anything to say, just talk to us first."
Feng Ruozhao looked at Qi Guiren and said, "It's just that you have to let us see how badly your face is injured."
Nian Shilan listened to Feng Ruozhao's words and echoed: "Yes, Concubine Qi will come over soon, and I will make the decision for you."
Now that Qi Guiren came out, he never thought about hiding his injury. After listening to what the two people said, he took off the veil.
Although Qi Guiren had taken some medicine before she came out, it had no effect on her face at all.
"Ah, this Concubine Qi is too cruel."
When Feng Ruozhao saw Qi Guiren's face, he patted his chest with a look of disbelief.
"Yes, what is her reason for?"
Nian Shilan asked.
Only then did Qi Guiren kneel down in tears: "Your Majesty, I can no longer hide this matter. It was Concubine Qi who poisoned Princess Shu Yue. She was afraid that Concubine Huang would find out the truth. Just a few days ago, you suspected She and the concubine, she wanted the concubine to admit this crime. The concubine had never done it, so she naturally refused to admit it, so she said that the concubine was disobedient to her. "
Nian Shilan raised his eyebrows after hearing Qi Guiren's words. This Qi Guiren has really made progress.
In fact, Qi Guiren has made no progress at all, but he just wants to use Nian Shilan's hand to take down Concubine Qi to avenge today's revenge.
"You said Concubine Qi wants you to take the blame for her?"
Feng Ruozhao naturally didn't believe it and looked at Mr. Qi with some doubts.
"Concubines are like this now, how can they dare to hide it? Moreover, the concubines have no way to use the Yikun Palace. How can they poison Princess Shuyue? Not to mention the Yanxi Palace, let's not talk about the concubines. Can I get close to An Changzai, and can’t I predict what the imperial kitchen will do?"
The more noble Qi said, the sadder she became. Even she believed it herself: "It was Concubine Qi who invited concubines and noble Fucha to the palace that day, and then specifically said that she only had two sachets and she didn't know what to put in them. Concubine There was no defense at that time, so I started talking about the medicinal materials and some effects. I didn’t expect that this was what Concubine Qi wanted.”
What Mr. Qi said made me burst into tears.
Nian Shilan also knew in her heart that she actually had no evidence at all. She was just lying to them that day.
But I don't really believe it if Concubine Qi did it.
Nian Shilan is most suspicious of Qi Guiren, and the queen knows pharmacology. Unfortunately, she can't drag the queen into trouble now, because Qi Guiren will not let Concubine Qi go.
"Empress, Concubine Qi is here."
Before Nian Shilan could say anything, Zhou Ninghai came in and announced.
"Mr. Qi, please get up first. Let's listen to what Concubine Qi has to say."
Nian Shilan gave Zhou Ninghai a look, and Zhou Ninghai immediately went out to invite someone.
As soon as Concubine Qi came in, she saw Qi Guiren sitting aside and thought it was her who came to complain.
But she didn't panic at all, because she was a concubine and had the right to be in charge of a small nobleman.
