Chapter 275 Queen's Asylum

Gao Yuanshang stood up and said, "No matter who does this, the main reason is from the blood ginseng, and the imperial concubine also admits that the blood ginseng was taken by her, so the imperial concubine is directly suspected. However, for the sake of the imperial concubine being pregnant with the imperial heir, I will exempt him from his death sentence and pass on my order. From today on, the imperial concubine will be abolished and the cold palace will be banned. After the imperial heir is born safely, we will deal with it."

How could Mei Xin watch Song Anle get wronged? So she didn't care about her understanding. She rushed out and knelt in front of Gao Yuanshang, and said anxiously: "The eldest prince and the imperial concubine were wronged. These blood ginseng were sent to Master Hu personally. I promised that I would never be passive. You must observe this matter clearly and must not wrongly accuse our imperial concubine like this."

Hongzhu also knelt down and said, "I have to use my life to ensure that the imperial concubine was wronged, and I hope the eldest prince will be kind."

Chen was beside him, with a look of contempt and said in a voice that was neither high nor low: "There is any kind of master, there will be any kind of slave."

Gao Yuanshang was still expressionless. Regardless of whether there was any injustice to Song Anle, he would blame her for being unlucky. Moreover, her suspicion was the greatest, so he said arrogantly: "This palace maid has the crime of conspiracy to cover up, and she will be taken out and given death."

"Slow down." Song Anle finally spoke. She could accept everything she faced, but she could not implicate those innocent people, not to mention that Mei Xin was her maid who followed the palace. Even if she could not give her a good prospect, she would not be able to kill her.

Because Song Anle was inconvenient, her kneeling behavior seemed a little heavy. Fortunately, Liu, who was standing beside her, stepped forward to support her, and then she knelt beside Mei Xin and said seriously: "I am willing to accept all the punishment of the eldest prince, but these palace ladies are innocent. They are just dedicated to protecting the master, so they offend the eldest prince. I hope the eldest prince will spare their lives by remembering the old love."

Gao Yuanshang could vaguely understand that the old love that Song An knew must have referred to the social interactions outside the palace. He looked back a little, but almost couldn't come back to his senses. If it weren't for all that Song Anle did, she would have completely wiped out her only favor in his heart, he might not have been so ruthless to her, but what she did was the most unacceptable evil he could not accept.

However, he already had selfish intentions for Song Anle's punishment, so there was no need to kill him. It was also considered to be accumulating virtue for the children he had lost. So he said coldly again: "Take everyone here, take them down."

"Slow down." Before the palace servants could take action, accompanied by a strong and prestigious order, the queen walked in with a domineering momentum.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly bowed and said, "I will meet my mother, Empress."

"Everyone is flat." The queen's cold expression in her face was in line with the prestige that no one dared to look directly at her, so everyone cautiously stepped aside.

When the queen left, she happened to hear the report of something wrong with Master Hu. She had seen so many such things that she became accustomed to. It was just a pity that a little life was, but the purpose of her coming was to make the inside story.

The queen looked at Song Anle on the ground and her anger suddenly rose. She thought she was just trying to come and investigate Song Anle's methods of dealing with things, but she didn't expect that she would be implicated.

"I don't know that the imperial concubine is pregnant, so I can't give a big gift?" The queen said angrily: "Why don't you help the imperial concubine get up quickly."

Everyone did not dare to neglect. With Mei Xin being supported by her, Liu finally dared to support her openly, so Song Anle also stood up immediately, but her overdrawn body still made her look a little tired.

"Thank you for your kindness." Song Anle also nodded and signaled that the reason why she was not afraid of Gao Yuanshang's punishment was because the queen would not ignore her.

The queen glanced at everyone coldly, and she said arrogantly: "I already know what you said just now. Hu lost his beloved son, and I felt very sad. But now that we have come to this, we can only face the facts. However, there are many doubts in the facts. It is said that a red flower was found in the blood ginseng. I wonder if this is the case?"

"After returning to his mother, it was the red flowers in this blood ginseng. Hu also took this blood ginseng that caused miscarriage and almost died." Gao Yuanshang handed the brocade box in front of the queen, but he had no other thoughts about the queen's appearance except for an unknown premonition.

The queen, who had already learned the details, glanced at the pair of blood ginseng, and then she said: "These blood ginseng are rare treasures, and they are tonics given to the imperial concubine by our palace. How can they appear here now?"

"When I returned to the Empress, I learned that Hu Xiaozhu had a fetal aura, so I kindly sent half of the blood ginseng to nourish him. I didn't expect that the blood ginseng was tampered with, and there was an inexplicable scent of red flowers, which eventually led to Hu Xiaozhu losing his beloved son, and I was guilty."

"What is the crime of the imperial concubine's good intention to help Hu's fetus?" The queen glanced at everyone again and said, "Besides, the imperial concubine said that the blood ginseng was tampered with, so the culprit was the real sinner."

Chen did not hesitate to do such a good opportunity to do Song Anle. You must know that Concubine Wu is now being confined. If Song Anle can deprive her reputation, she will be the best choice. So she said seriously: "The Empress Dowager doesn't know anything. The Empress has been sealed before sending the blood ginseng to Master Hu. Therefore, the Empress has the greatest suspicion of murder. I hope the Empress will punish this matter severely."

The queen glanced at Chen and said with great prestige: "According to what you said, the blood ginseng comes from Changxing Palace, so is there a major suspicion in this palace?"

Chen immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, so she nodded in panic and said, "I have no intention of this, I hope the Empress will atone for her sins."

"I believe that this matter is not done by the imperial concubine. If anyone dares to question the imperial concubine again, it is questioning the imperial concubine." The queen raised her head and ordered: "Come here, bring the palace servant in charge here."

The little palace maid who had just now knelt down and said, "I am here, please give me instructions."

The queen looked at the little palace maid condescendingly and asked again: "I ask you, can anyone else know about the storage place of blood ginseng?"

Facing the queen's aura, no matter who it is, I believe she will be awe-inspiring, so the little palace maid said respectfully: "Back to the queen, because the blood ginseng is precious, the slaves have always been placed in the hall clearly, and the palace servants who serve in the hall know it."

"So, the red flowers in the blood ginseng are most likely to be something that others have got involved?" The queen seemed to be asking questions, but it seemed to highlight the key points.

When the little palace maid heard this, she immediately said nervously: "The Empress atones for her sins. She is all trying her best to serve the little master. She will never dare to do anything to frame her. She hopes that the Empress will observe clearly."

The queen didn't want to ignore any details because of the little palace maid's nervousness, so she eased her tone and said, "Don't be nervous for now. I don't doubt that you are framing your master, but during this period, have anyone come to visit your master or have the chance to tamper with the things in the hall?"

"This..." The little palace maid recalled that it was a serious crime. Of course, she did not dare to speak nonsense, but when faced with the queen's questioning, she did not dare to neglect it. After a moment of reflection, she nodded and said, "Greeting back, only Master Liu and Bai Liangdi often came to visit our Master, and sometimes they would talk to each other. When the servants were happy, they did not disturb them too much."

When Liu heard this, she didn't expect that she would be implicated, so she took the initiative to go forward and nodded and said, "Go back to the Empress, I did visit Master Hu twice not long ago, but because Master Hu was not in good health, I did not dare to come and disturb him often. However, I always came and left for a moment, and never moved anything in the hall. I hope the Queen will observe it clearly."

The queen turned her gaze to Bai Huaqing again. She seemed calm, but she lowered her eyes expressionlessly, making people look down on the strangeness in her eyes.

The reason why Bai Huaqing was not afraid is because she knew that Song Anle would not kill her, and Gao Yuanshang was even more unlikely to ignore her. If she really faced no one was concerned, she would rather die.

The queen stared at her Bai Huaqing. Although she looked down on her expression, her cold and arrogant look was very similar to the shadows in her memory. She suddenly felt a faint pain in her heart, but she still said coldly: "Don't Bai Liangdi want to explain this?"

Bai Huaqing guessed that since the queen had conducted unnecessary interrogation, she must have had a solution, and it was impossible for Song Anle to be implicated. She no longer paid attention to the result and had no room for reversal. So she said coldly: "The pure one will be clear, and I don't want to explain."

A deep light shone in the queen's eyes, Bai Huaqing's stubbornness, even if she did something wrong, she would not bow her head to admit her mistakes, which was exactly the same as her stubborn mother.

But the queen cannot miss the opportunity because of this. No matter what punishment she punishes Bai Huaqing, her starting point is always for the overall situation and it is for her good.

Song Anle secretly observed the queen. She was worried that the queen would not be able to take action on the conversation, so she said at the right time: "Empress, these two people are of great suspicion,

I requested a heavy punishment for this matter as a warning."

Gao Yuan didn't expect Song Anle to be so vicious, and she didn't even let Bai Hualian go, so he said anxiously: "Mother, there are still many suspicions in this matter. My son asked for instructions to find out this matter personally and would never wrongly accuse anyone, but he would never let the evil people go to justice."

The queen was dissatisfied with Gao Yuanshang's unscrupulous protection, so she still said coldly: "Why didn't the eldest prince realize many suspicious points when convicting the imperial concubine?"

Gao Yuanshangshen locked his eyebrows and nodded with a dull face and said, "My son is ashamed."
