Chapter 399
"My queen has spent all these days and now she has a miscarriage. I have no chance of getting pregnant again."
"But you, the instigator of this, have a stable pregnancy, Concubine Zhao, you have such a cruel heart!"
Concubine Zhao's face changed instantly due to Concubine Ke's sudden outburst.
But the rebuttal words came out immediately afterwards.
"My Lord Ke, I don't know what you are talking about. This spice combination is very difficult to make. Even making the current ingredients has already cost me countless efforts."
"I'm not an expert in spices, so how could I possibly make two things that taste exactly the same?"
"You bullshit!"
Concubine Ke's eyes turned red, and she was obviously extremely angry.
"No wonder, no wonder after you became pregnant, you kept saying that at the beginning of your pregnancy, you couldn't stand the scent of the goose pear incense in your tent."
"Even the number of times you see me on weekdays has decreased a lot. It turns out, it turns out..."
At this point, tears rolled down Concubine Ke's eyes.
"So, from the very beginning in the Old Summer Palace, you've been deliberately trying to get close to me?!"
"But, I'm not favored. Why did you want to harm me and make me completely lose the hope of becoming a mother?!"
"How did I offend you to make you be so cruel?"
Concubine Zhao avoided looking directly at Concubine Ke.
But he quickly glanced at Hongli.
But the look on Hongli's face made her heart sink.
Of course, the emperor's orders cannot be spoken out loud.
Otherwise, not only myself, but the entire Niuhuru clan will be buried with me!
At this point, the only option is to refuse to admit it.
His eyes started to turn red as he watched.
"My Lord, we've only been friends for a few months, but I truly believe I have no ill intentions towards you. How could you possibly think of me this way?"
She looked so hurt that if someone who didn't know the inside story saw her, they would really think she was the victim.
"Okay, since you said so, then I'll immediately send someone to your palace to check the goose pear tent incense in your palace to see if there is any difference!"
When Concubine Ke said this, Concubine Zhao's expression suddenly changed.
I dare not say any more to Mr. Ke.
She bowed her head again and said, "Your Majesty, I have suffered an undeserved disaster. I beg Your Majesty to understand."
Hongli seemed to be at a loss as to what to do and had no intention of speaking.
So Qingying raised her eyebrows and spoke immediately.
"You don't have to feel wronged. The matter naturally needs to be investigated before there can be any results."
"Xiuxia, go see if Sanbao has returned."
Hearing Qingying's words, Zhaopin's brows suddenly jumped.
But before I could think about it, Sanbao came in from outside.
"Your Majesty, this is the goose pear tent incense I found in the residence of Concubine Zhao in the Yikun Palace. It looks a bit damp and doesn't look well-preserved. It must have been unused for a long time."
Qingying waved her hand, "Doctor Zhang."
He didn't care what Sanbao said, nor did he care about Zhaopin's sudden change of expression. He just ordered Doctor Zhang to check.
After a moment, Zhang Xun bowed and said something that made Concubine Ke look a little crazy.
"Empress, there is no musk in this spice."
"Bitch!"
Concubine Ke shouted angrily and was about to step forward, but was held back tightly by Cui Ning.
Hongli, who had been silent for a long time, finally said, "How dare you!"
An angry shout brought sudden silence to the hall.
"Princess Zhao, what exactly is going on? Do you have an explanation?"
The following question made Zhaopin's heart sink completely.
The emperor...is indeed an expert at destroying bridges after crossing them.
My thoughts were racing, and I was knocking my head to the ground.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I really don't know what happened, but I am sure that the gift I gave to Noble Lady Ke is absolutely fine."
"So what you're saying is that Noble Lady Ke herself made this harmful thing and gave it to Noble Concubine Chun?"
"I don't dare."
Zhaopin only felt a thin layer of sweat rising on her forehead.
"Your Majesty, I really don't know the reason for this matter. Please forgive me."
Hongli had a gloomy face.
"Queen, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty, this matter involves the heir to the throne. I dare not speak rashly."
Qingying knew the root cause of this matter, and the purpose of today was not this, so there was no need to rush.
