The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(104)

When Yao Niang arrived, several concubines and maids were all there. The King of Jin was in the front yard, and the princess had sent someone to send him a letter, but he hadn't come yet, obviously he was stuck by something.

After all, Concubine Hu was the master, and she was carried to the bed after the incident. Yao Niang only looked at her from a distance and didn't dare to look again.

Concubine Hu was bleeding from all seven orifices, and her appearance was horrible.

Yao Niang felt a little uncomfortable, and didn't know why she remembered herself in her previous life.

In her previous life, she was also poisoned to death. Although she didn't see what it looked like, she must be no better than Concubine Hu now.

The princess led people to sit in the hall, and Yao Niang followed her out.

At first, she didn't understand why so many people came to see Concubine Hu's death. Shouldn't it be a taboo? After hearing Concubine Xu say a few words with a hint of meaning, she immediately understood what the princess meant.

This is to avoid suspicion.

If Concubine Jin came forward alone to deal with it when King Jin was away, she would inevitably be suspected in the future. Now that so many people are present, Concubine Xu only said a few words, and people can't help but connect Concubine Hu's death with the princess.

"Concubine Xu, if you can't speak, just shut up."

Chapter 83

The Liuchun Mansion was shrouded in a dark cloud, the servants all had sad faces, and several maids who served them closely were sobbing quietly.

Such a thing happened, no matter how the master died, they, the servants, could not escape the blame, and the lightest was the blame of improper service. Especially since Concubine Hu's death was too strange, it was inevitable that people would make associations.

Scolded by the princess, Concubine Xu felt a little wronged: "Sister, you misunderstood. I was just curious. Sister Hu is a concubine, and she gave birth to a little princess. She is definitely not so depressed that she would commit suicide. I talked to her the other day, and I didn't see anything wrong with her."

"Besides-" she changed her tone, "Sister, I remember hearing from the servants that Concubine Hu came back from Rongxiyuan, but she went to Siyiyuan. Didn't sister see anything wrong at that time?"

Yao Niang, who was sitting at the end, was a little surprised. She had never heard of this. It seemed that someone had asked the servants before she came.

"Concubine Hu did go to my residence, but I just came back and hadn't settled down yet, so I didn't have time to invite her in. I wanted to wait until I was settled down, and then go to Liuchun Pavilion to pay my respects to the princess, and then go to apologize in person. I never expected that this would happen." Yao Niang said softly, which was considered to be clearing herself.

Concubine Xu smiled at her and said, "Sister Su, we know this even if you don't say it. You and His Highness just came back from outside, so there's no need to do this."

This "like this" is somewhat controversial. What does this mean? What kind of thing? It looks like Concubine Hu was really murdered. However, after Concubine Hu was rejected at Rongxiyuan, she went to Siyiyuan. The princess did not see her, but she had a cup of tea in Siyiyuan.

Yao Niang didn't know how Concubine Xu knew so much, but the princess did not deny it, which was the fact. At this point, she finally understood why the princess looked so ugly.

Concubine Hu had been to Siyiyuan before she died. Siyiyuan was full of the princess's people, and the people who made and served tea were naturally the same. After Concubine Hu left, the tea must have been poured out, and the teacup was washed, and there was no evidence.

There are too many things that can be used, which can clear oneself and make people have infinite associations.

Especially since the princess has always been very clever and doesn't like Concubine Hu, everyone in the mansion knows about this.

After figuring it out, Yao Niang was glad again that she didn't ask Concubine Hu to come in. If she really asked her to come in, she would have to serve tea. If something like this happened when she came back, she wouldn't be able to get away with it.

Look, isn't the princess an example?

Anyway, it was the first time that Yao Niang saw the princess being bullied like this. And Concubine Xu was really capable. Even though the princess had repeatedly reprimanded her, she still pretended to be infinitely aggrieved, and she kept pushing back, and she didn't forget to bully.

At the same time, Yao Niang couldn't help but think of her experience in her previous life.

Before she died in her previous life, the only thing she had eaten was the dishes given by the princess. She had never thought about the princess before, because she thought the princess was a very smart person, and how could a smart person poison the dishes she gave, but now she was a little uncertain.

Could it be that it was really the princess——

Someone came from the good doctor's office. Although the King of Jin did not come back, he sent Doctor Liu.

After Doctor Liu arrived, he was invited in. Concubine Xu took the lead, and Hao Haodang followed in.

Seeing this, the princess followed in with an ugly face.

Everyone went in, and Yao Niang was no exception, so she followed behind. She deliberately found a place far away to stand, where Doctor Liu was checking Concubine Hu's body.

"It's a very poisonous poison. As for what kind of poison it is, it's hard to tell for a while. Many poisons that are fatal to the touch will cause bleeding from all seven orifices." Doctor Liu first looked at Concubine Hu's eyes, ears, nose and mouth, and then checked the hands and face exposed outside, and said to the princess: "I need someone to help, check if the concubine has other wounds on her body."

Needless to say, this was naturally ordered by King Jin. It seems that King Jin also has doubts in his heart, fearing that someone is secretly attacking. Otherwise, Doctor Liu, a good doctor and a man, would never make such a request.

Hearing this, Concubine Xu showed a look of compassion: "I have a good relationship with Sister Liu, but I can't let her die unjustly. Ruyue, you help Liu Liangyi. In order to avoid being criticized, my sister suggests that the princess should also send someone out, and find more people to supervise each other, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble."

In fact, to put it bluntly, Concubine Xu was afraid that the princess would make a move, and she also did not forget to squeeze her.

Concubine Liu and Madam Tao and Madam Li were unwilling to get involved in such things, but after all, Concubine Hu's sudden death, and this kind of death, really made people feel horrified. Even if they knew that Concubine Xu was instigating, the key point was that Concubine Xu's instigation was not unreasonable.

It was probably the rabbit's death and the fox's grief, and the final result was that everyone had a maid around him. Yao Niang was implicated, and had no choice but to send Yuchan out.

The servants brought a screen to separate them in the middle. Yuchan and several maids were inside, and the people outside, led by the princess and Liu Liangyi, held their breath and waited quietly.

The King of Jin is here.

After he came in, he first looked at Yao Niang. Seeing that she was standing there in good health, except for her pale face, there was nothing unusual about her. Then he looked at the screen.

He sat down on the armchair, and someone immediately served tea.

Concubine Xu came to the side diligently and told the whole story, of course, she did not throw a lot of dirty water on the princess.

Princess Jin's face was always cold and pale. She straightened her spine and said with her chin in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I hope Your Highness will understand and not be instigated by those villains. I have no need and will not do such a cruel thing."

In fact, without Concubine Xu telling him, the King of Jin also knew what happened. However, he just nodded slightly to Princess Jin's explanation and did not say anything.

Princess Jin's face couldn't help but look a little uglier.

The room was so quiet that only the rustling of clothes could be heard faintly from inside.

Yao Niang was timid and felt a little creepy. She couldn't help but think of the scene where Yuchan and the others took off all the clothes of Concubine Hu and looked through her body.

Her face turned even paler, and she couldn't help but feel sour because she thought about whether she was also looked at like this after she died in her previous life.

She had died once before, but she died too quickly that time and Yao Niang didn't feel anything at all. But this time, she really felt a breath of death. She couldn't help but wonder if Concubine Hu was looking at them now. The ghost story has always been illusory, but after living again, Yao Niang believed it a little.

She felt a chill in her bones, her eyes went black, and she fainted.

The King of Jin had a gloomy face, and his left hand unconsciously turned the sapphire ring on the ring finger of his right hand. He saw from the corner of his eye that her face was not right and shook twice, but he didn't have time to think about it and she passed away.

Everyone felt a flash in front of their eyes, and saw the King of Jin holding the fainted Madam Su.

"Why are you still standing there! Come and take a look!" The voice was as cold as ice, but no one would ignore the concern in it.

This is the difference!

Obviously one of them died, and it was a concubine who gave birth to a little princess, but when the King of Jin arrived, he was not surprised. But this one was just fainted, and he was so anxious.

The wives and concubines headed by the Princess of Jin had different thoughts, but they could not hide their bad taste.

It was not convenient here, so the King of Jin carried Yao Niang to the side room and put her on the Luohan bed.

Doctor Liu Liang hurried over to take her pulse.

He sat upright on a small stool, stroking his beard with one hand and placing the other hand on Yao Niang's wrist.

This was his usual pulse-taking posture, but this time he did not stroke his beard leisurely while taking the pulse as he did in the past. His face was first surprised, then happy, and then surprised again. His goatee was sparse, and now he pulled several strands off.

In the past, Doctor Liu Liang would have been heartbroken. But this time he didn't care to feel sorry for her. He was in a bad state and spoke incoherently: "Your Highness is pregnant, pregnant! Pregnant!"

Prince Jin was annoyed. Hearing this, he subconsciously asked: "What's the matter!"

Liu Liangyi took a deep breath, and his thin face showed an almost funny smile: "Madam Su is pregnant, pregnant!"

Instantly, everyone's jaw dropped, and the dust in Fucheng's hand fell off in shock.

With a click, it was Prince Jin who crushed the armrest of the armchair.

Chapter 84

Yao Niang woke up drowsily, and saw a little face when she opened her eyes.

It was Xiaobao.

He sat cross-legged beside Yao Niang, frowning, and looked like he was thinking about something seriously, which made people laugh.
