Chapter 386 The Thief Cries Thief

Although the Queen Mother had not heard about what happened in the horse farm before, she was not too surprised when she heard about it now.

After all, being in the royal family, it seems not uncommon to do anything to compete for the throne.

"I know what you mean. You think these people originally came for you, but because of Niuniu, your son got the blessing, but the disaster fell on the boy in the Qi Wangfu." The Queen Mother said in a deep voice.

The Crown Prince's Consort continued: "Queen Mother, although my boy is not very old, he has an old-fashioned personality. He follows the words of the saints in his words and deeds. He will never offend people at random. The calculations of the people behind the scenes are really hateful!"

The Queen Mother waved her hand: "Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. The people behind the scenes can't get away."

The Crown Prince's Consort wanted the Queen Mother's promise. What happened in the palace can only be investigated by the Emperor and the Queen Mother. She is most afraid that the royal family will be muddy and let things go casually.

She praised Niuniu several times, until the Queen Mother was so happy that she stood up and left.

"Queen Mother, the Prince's Consort of Prince Jing looked steady in the past, but she is also impatient. She came to complain in a hurry, which delayed your meal." Nanny Sun complained on the side.

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "They are all parents. The child almost had an accident, so it is normal for her to be anxious."

"Queen Mother, who do you think did this?" Nanny Sun asked in a low voice.

The Queen Mother glanced at the old servant and said, "It's just that those few palaces are fighting for a position that is not even visible."

When Nanny Sun heard this, she showed a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth: "Let them fight to the death, our Majesty has his own children, how can he still look down on these relatives who are separated by who knows how many layers?"

The Queen Mother's mouth rose. Compared with these people who coveted the throne, she is now waiting for Concubine Luo to give birth, and then everything will be clear.

"This matter must be carefully investigated, and no clues can be missed." The Queen Mother instructed Li Shunfu on the side.

Li Shunfu respectfully agreed.

Nanny Sun was a little puzzled and asked, "Queen Mother, why do you have to find out? Isn't it better to let them fight each other?"

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "If Concubine Luo was not pregnant, this matter would have passed in a muddle, and it wouldn't matter."

If the Queen Mother didn't have her own grandson, she wouldn't care who would be the final winner of this battle for the throne, it would just depend on each other's ability.

Now that she has a grandson, even if he hasn't been born yet, this grandson has already been on the competition list, and she has to see clearly who is the wolfish ambition behind the scenes and who is unscrupulous.

She also has to be on guard, because this person uses despicable means to deal with Concubine Luo's generation.

It's just that not long after the Prince Consort of Jing's Mansion left, the Princess of Qi came running.

"Empress Dowager, you have to make a decision for my Shuoer! He has always been well-behaved and sensible. If the eunuchs hadn't encouraged him, how could he ride someone else's horse? And how come it happened that someone else was suddenly hit and injured and couldn't take the riding and archery class?" The Princess of Qi was about the same age as the Queen Mother. She was crying with snot and tears at this time, and she looked undignified.

The Queen Mother felt a little disgusted in her heart, but she still said perfunctorily: "Don't worry, I already know about this matter, and I will definitely not let the person who is behind it go!"

The Princess of Qi was still dissatisfied and said: "Empress Dowager, the palace is so wide, how can it be so easy for two children to bump into each other? And it happened that this bump really avoided the disaster? There are many cases of thieves crying thieves in this world. You must not be deceived by some villains!"

When the Queen Mother heard this, her face suddenly sank.

Princess Qi hinted that the thief in Prince Jing's mansion was crying thief, but she had to say it in this way. Wouldn't it mean that even Niuniu was involved in this accident? This was definitely not what the Queen Mother wanted to see.

"I will make my own decision on what is right and wrong. You can leave first." The Queen Mother said.

In the final analysis, these children entered the palace because their parents begged them to come in, in order to seek boundless power. Unlike those little girls who prayed for children, the royal family would not pay too much attention to these royal children.

Princess Qi didn't understand what she said wrong, why the Queen Mother suddenly turned cold, although she was afraid of saying more and making more mistakes, but she still remembered the instructions of Prince Qi before entering the palace.

"Queen Mother, this time when I enter the palace, I also want to pay my respects to Lady Li Zhaoyi. Miss Li San is also the wife of my second son who has not yet married..." Princess Qi made her request.

The Queen Mother looked at her deeply and said, "I remember this marriage, it seems that the Emperor was the matchmaker."

Princess Qi smiled and said, "Miss Li San is lively and intelligent. Your Majesty thinks she is a good match for my second son. I think so too."

Princess Qi's implication was that she was willing to accept this marriage because the Emperor thought Miss Li San was good.

The Queen Mother always knew that people's hearts were fickle, and she didn't expect that once Zhaoyi Li lost power, the Qi Palace, which used to flatter Zhaoyi, would also turn against her.

Princess Qi still felt that she had given the Li family a lot of face. Although she had placed people in the palace, the things that happened before and after Zhaoyi Li lost power were kept secret by the Emperor and the Queen Mother, and she couldn't find out more.

She now only knew that the men of the Li family were still the favorites of the Emperor, but Zhaoyi Li didn't know what she had done wrong, and ended up being confined and demoted.

The marriage contract with the Li family was arranged by the emperor. Even if the Qi Wangfu was unwilling now, they could not be too obvious. They hoped that they were pretending at this time, and they also wanted to go to Guanju Palace to test the truth of Li Zhaoyi.

"Li Zhaoyi is now punished, and outsiders are not allowed to visit her." The queen mother said casually.

When the Qi Wangfei heard this, her heart fell straight down. The queen mother was even too lazy to cover up. It can be seen that Li Zhaoyi's mistake was probably not small.

After sending the Qi Wangfei away, Li Shunfu came in to report.

"Queen Mother, the matter of the horse farm has been investigated." Li Shunfu said.

The queen mother became interested and said, "You investigated quickly this time. The results came out in just one day."

Li Shunfu looked strange: "Queen Mother, the horse that the young master of Prince Jing was going to ride was pierced with a needle in the neck by the horse slave who was taking care of it. The needle was smeared with a kind of herb that can make horses crazy."

"After the young master of Prince Qi rode on the horse, he waved the whip vigorously. The little white horse ran forward violently in pain. The faster it ran, the deeper the needle was pierced, and the more obvious the effect of the medicine would be."

Listening to Li Shunfu's explanation, the queen mother's face was not too surprised, and said: "I seem to have seen this method before. Tell me, who does the horse slave belong to?"

Li Shunfu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "To answer the queen mother, the horse slave has no father or mother, only a biological sister, and his sister is now working in Prince Qi's mansion."
