Concubine Jin was really shocked. When she returned to the palace, she hugged her newborn little princess tightly. No matter what anyone said, Concubine Jin did not speak.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Gegeqi looked at Concubine Jin worriedly, but no matter how Gegeqi asked, Concubine Jin didn't speak, and her eyes were still a little straight.

"Master! Master!" Gegeqi said anxiously, "Princess! Princess! What's wrong with you?"

Shen Ruochen pulled Ge Geqi and said, "Stop shouting. It will be fine if my sister understands."

"Master Shen, what happened to our master?"

Shen Ruochen sighed, "I originally thought that my sister was only interested in forming an alliance for Mongolia and had no feelings for the emperor! Now it seems that is not the case! My sister should... maybe not be so cold to the emperor, right?"

"Ah?" Gege was so angry that she didn't understand. She scratched her head and looked at her master, "Master, don't scare me. For little Gege, we have to do well!"

"I'm very fine!" Jin Fei suddenly said, as if everything just now was dazzled by everyone, she looked at everyone with a cold face, and finally focused on Shen Ruochen.

"Sister, help me, help me to find out," Jin Fei said coldly, "When I was pregnant, did the emperor ask the imperial doctor whether the child in my belly was a boy or a girl? I have to ask!"

"Sister, why are you doing this?" Shen Ruochen stepped forward to hold Jin Fei's hand with some distress, "Sister, there are some things that would be painful to know, so let's just pretend we don't know and won't listen or ask, okay? ?”

"No!" Jin Fei said solemnly and earnestly, "Since I was a child, I have been a princess on the grassland, a princess who attracts the attention of thousands of people! How can I accept this... It's better to know better! I don't trust others, this palace There are no good people here, I really believe in you! You must tell me the truth! Definitely!"

Seeing Concubine Jin's insistence, Shen Ruochen had no choice but to agree. Concubine Jin was in a bad mood and left without staying long.

Shen Ruochen didn't know anyone, so he had to ask Guizhi to ask Leng Huan, but Leng Huan was just a young imperial doctor and didn't know such a hidden thing, so he could only inquire slowly.

On this day, Guizhi went out for a trip. When he came back, his face was white and his whole body was shaking with fear.

Shen Ruochen was so frightened that he wanted to call for the imperial doctor, but Guizhi stopped him. "Little... little master, no need! No need, I just need to sleep at night."

"Sister Guizhi, what's going on? Did you see something, or did something happen to you?"

When Shen Ruochen asked this question, Guizhi's emotions that had just stabilized became uncontrollable again, and his whole body was trembling as if he had encountered some monster.

"Little Master..." Guizhi looked at Shen Ruochen with fear in his eyes and said in a trembling voice, "Little Master, all the people serving in Yikun Palace have been killed."

"What?" Shen Ruochen was startled, "Kill them all?"

Guizhi trembled with fear and said, "I saw with my own eyes that rows of people were moving out! They are all dead. They were all poisoned."

"You...how did you know?"

"The slave happened to be passing by. A white cloth was lifted by the wind. It was Fen'er from Yikun Palace. Blood was bleeding from her nose and mouth. She looked like she had been poisoned to death." Guizhi said, "Little Master, there used to be someone in this palace. Such a thing, but even if something happens to the master, there is no need to kill everyone in the first palace!"

"Who gave the order?" Shen Ruochen felt a chill running down his back. Eerie and scary.

Guizhi sniffed, "Who else could it be? The queen has been ill recently. Concubine Shu is in charge of everything in the palace. It must have been ordered by Concubine Shu."

"Concubine Shu?" Shen Ruochen couldn't help but think of the prisoners who had entered the Shenxing Division that day in Yangxin Hall, and couldn't help but become even more frightened.

The emperor was in charge of important matters, so naturally he didn't care. The imperial concubine must have been frightened and anxious at that time, and messed up the rules. They didn't pay attention, but she did. Those people looked like they were not being tortured, but they all wanted to die and begged for death. They were obviously suffering from greater torture, even mental torture!

The two palace maids kept kowtowing, and there was a smell on their bodies. If I guessed correctly, they must have used a trick that has been lost for many years in the inner court to make people suffocate to death. I also accidentally read in a miscellaneous book that something was stuffed into a woman's lower body, and water was poured continuously. If she didn't say anything, she would be suffocated to death, so there would be no injuries on the body, but it would make everyone speak.

Concubine Shu is so cruel!

"The noble concubine has been demoted to agree, so why bother to kill everyone? This... the emperor and the queen don't care?" Shen Ruochen couldn't help but pity those people. Being in the palace as slaves is already pitiful, but they still do it like this Even if he dies, he was born to his parents, so why bother?

Guizhi shook his head and said with dull eyes, "It's just a few slaves who died. After these deaths, some good ones will come in, and the emperor probably won't know about it. As for the queen... the slaves don't know either, and they probably won't want to. Just take care of it, my slave’s life is cheap and not worth anything!”

Then he said to himself, "My young master, tell me, will one day this slave die like this!"

"No! It won't!" Shen Ruochen took Guizhi's hand and shook his head, "No, absolutely not! I will protect you! Doctor Leng is still waiting for you, and your good days are still to come. !”

"No way?" Guizhi said fearfully.

"No, no, we just have to be careful." Shen Ruochen thought for a while and said, "We will stay in our own palace and don't mess with anyone. I guess no one wants to kill us."

"Little Master!" Suddenly Little Walnut came in and shouted, which made Shen Ruochen and Guizhi tremble. "Little Master, Concubine Shu sent someone to invite you over, and she also said that she would take Third Brother with her."

"Ah!" Shen Ruochen refused instinctively, "What do you want me to do?"

Guizhi resisted even more, "The person who came here didn't say anything? She also brought Third Brother with her, what is she going to do?"

Xiao Hetao said, "The visitor said that Concubine Shu invited everyone in the palace to go to her palace. They said it was a flower viewing banquet and they wanted to discuss the emperor's birthday in a few days. They said that although the third elder brother is young, he is also Your Majesty, you must go there."

"My lord! You can't go!" Guizhi grabbed Shen Ruochen's clothes.

Shen Ruochen naturally didn't want to go, but if there was no good excuse for this kind of thing, not going would mean not giving Concubine Shu face. Shen Ruochen had no choice but to say, "Go and tell the people who came, just say that Third Brother is sick and has some fever, and I am also infected." For the sake of the health of everyone in the palace, I won’t go."

Little Walnut nodded, "Do you need to be more serious?"

"Say it! Be serious!" Shen Ruochen said anxiously, "It would be better if you tell them so that they don't dare to come!"
