"Concubine Qin, this is too precious, Yun Xi can't take it." Yu Yunxi shook her head.

   "You saved Princess Rui and the child in her womb. Your merits and virtues are immeasurable. It's just a string of Buddhist beads. You can accept it."

  Concubine Qin said she would give the Buddhist beads to Yu Yunxi.

  Hearing this, Yu Yunxi knew that she would not be able to refuse today, so she caught the Buddha beads with her backhand and said seriously: "Thank you, Concubine Yunxi, for the reward."

  But just as she was about to take back her hand and the prayer beads, her fingertips accidentally touched Qin Fei's palm.

   She frowned slightly.

  Concubine Qin, as a concubine, does she have calluses in her palms?

   But she didn't show any emotion on her face.

   "I heard that the Empress Dowager has summoned the son and grandson of the Southwest into the palace. The county lord must be very anxious now, so my concubine will stop talking to you. You should go to the Empress Dowager."

  Concubine Qin raised her head, smiled and said to Yun Xi.

  Her words successfully made Yu Yunxi think of Brother Yi and Jin'er.

  Her heart tightened, she nodded quickly: "Thank Concubine Qin for your advice, Yun Xi will leave first."

  Qianjiao and Qianmei quickly followed.

   "Master, did Emperor Dog make things difficult for you?" Qianjiao asked worriedly.

   "He asked me to investigate the poisoning of Princess Rui." Yu Yunxi frowned and said in a solemn tone.

  That day, when she told Jian Xin that someone poisoned her, Jian Xin's face was shocked, as if it was done by an acquaintance.

  So, who is this "acquaintance"?

   "Hmph, the dog emperor didn't simply want to find the murderer. He hoped that the county magistrate would not find the real culprit. He would like to punish the county magistrate." Qianjiao said angrily.

  Qian Mei's complexion is also very bad.

  Emperor Dog, won’t he feel at ease if he doesn’t make things difficult for the Southwest Palace?

   "Leaving aside this matter, Jin'er and brother-in-law have already entered the palace, right?" Yu Yunxi asked solemnly.

   "Report to the county magistrate, yes." Qian Jiao quickly replied.

   "Let's go now."

  …

  In the Fushou Palace of the Empress Dowager.

  The queen mother was sitting on the pear blossom bench, and the maid next to her was fanning her.

  Raising her eyes, looking down at Shen Hezhi and Xiao Baozi who were sitting there, she chuckled lightly: "The son of the Southwest has the demeanor of the King of the Southwest."

  Shen He is dressed in white, although his face has a sick look, but his brows and eyes are indifferent, and his face is handsome and picturesque.

   "The empress dowager praises you a lot." He said neither humble nor overbearing.

   "The Ai family heard that the son's health is not very good. There are so many imperial physicians in the palace. Let them come and show you."

  The queen mother spoke casually again.

  Her hair has turned gray, but she doesn't look old, at least those eyes are very sharp when looking at people.

   Heh, she did this because she was worried that the news that their son was in poor health was false.

   Behind Shen He, Qian Qing's eyes flashed with anger.

   Also, people from the Feng family are afraid of the Southwest Palace day and night. They must ensure that the son will not live long, so that they can feel at ease.

  Shen Hezhi's complexion was the same, and when he lowered his eyes, he hid the emotions in his eyes, and said softly: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, if the imperial physician in the palace has a way to cure Hezhi's stubborn illness, Hezhi will be very happy."

  The queen mother glanced at the old woman behind her.

  The old nanny went out immediately.

   Soon, nearly ten imperial physicians came in carrying medicine boxes.

   This speed is not like the speed of rushing from the Imperial Hospital, on the contrary, it is already waiting in Fushou Palace.

   "Show the Southwest Shizi, if he is unwell, you have to find a way to cure him!"

  The Empress Dowager stared at the doctors and spoke in a cold voice.

   "Yes, Empress Dowager." These imperial physicians replied with trepidation.

   Seeing them approaching, Xiao Baozi pulled Shen Hezhi's finger nervously.

  Shen Hezhi touched his head with a smile, and said softly: "Don't be afraid."

  His body is like this, if the Feng family wants to get a definite result, he will just give it to them.

  After the ten imperial physicians continuously felt Shen Hezhi's pulse, they walked up to the Queen Mother and reported the situation to her in a low voice.

  When the queen mother heard this, her face and eyes flashed a little.

   "Retire, all the good medicines in the Tai Hospital will be given to Aijia, and the prince will take them back later." She sighed.

   Soon, her eyes fell on Shen Hezhi, and she said regretfully, "You have suffered for so many years."

   "Life and death are destiny, Hezhi has already seen through it." Shen Hezhi's tone was flat.

  As if the dying person is not himself.

   "Is this child a descendant of the Southwest Prince's Mansion?" The Queen Mother looked at Xiao Baozi again.

   "Come here to Ai's family and show it to Ai's family." She waved to Xiao Baozi.

  Shen Hezhi frowned slightly.

  But Xiao Baozi patted the back of his hand and comforted him silently.

   Soon, the little bun raised a smiling face, then ran to the front of the empress dowager with his short legs.

   "The Empress Dowager, Jin'er has met the Empress Dowager." He said softly.

   Seeing him like this, the queen mother was taken aback for a moment.

   After a while, she laughed, "You little guy is not afraid of life. You are indeed raised by the Southwest Palace."

  Her smile at this time is really a little more sincere.

  She has been in the harem for so many years. When the princes and grandchildren came to see her, they were all cautious. No one had ever dared to look at her openly like this little guy.

  She touched Xiao Baozi's head with her hands, but when she thought of something, her eyes began to turn cold.

   She seemed to ask unintentionally: "Why didn't you hear the son talk about the concubine, who is the grandson's biological mother?"

   Queen Mother, what does she mean by this? Why would they explore the matter of the little master's biological mother?

  The eyes of Qianqing and Shen Hezhi both flashed solemn.

   "In the past two days, Ai's family heard rumors that this child belongs to the crown prince and the county lord." The queen mother said quietly again.

   Just at this time, Feng Yili and Luo Xiuran rushed to the door, and when they heard this, they stopped at the same time.

What?

  The queen mother actually suspects that Jin'er is the child of Shen Hezhi and Yu Yunxi, this is too outrageous!

  Luo Xiuran swallowed his saliva, and secretly looked at Feng Yili beside him with nervous eyes.

Inside the palace, the queen mother said again quietly: "The lord of the Southwest County still bears the name of Princess Regent, and she and the son are brothers and sisters. Recklessly."

   "Where did the Empress Dowager hear the rumors? It's so ridiculous." Shen Hezhi smoothed the folds of his cuffs with his slender fingers, and asked calmly.

   "It's all just some folk rumors, but these rumors are not groundless. If there are too many rumors, it will not be good for the Southwest Palace. Why don't you explain to the world, who is the real biological mother of this child?" The queen mother said sharply.

  What is the purpose of the Queen Mother in persecuting Shen Hezhi?

  Luo Xiuran frowned, could this be a way to deal with the Southwest Palace?

Beside   , Feng Yili's eyes are deep.

  He wanted to go in and say that Jin'er was his child.

  But just when he and Luo Xiuran's feet crossed the threshold, Qian Qing stood up, and she said loudly: "Empress, in fact, this servant is the biological mother of this grandson."
