Qingzhu did not let any news about this matter to the outside world, and directly brought Xiao Baozi and Xiao Dingzi back to the cold palace. In order not to alert others, Xiao Baozi's ability to be so presumptuous must have something to do with Xiao Anzi, his backer.

, listening to the meaning of Xiao Baozi's words, it seems that Xiao Anzi has done "a lot of things" in the palace these days when he was relegated to the cold palace. Otherwise, why didn't these palace maids and eunuchs let him, the real master of the harem, go?

In my eyes, I didn’t expect that I underestimated Xiao Anzi. On the day when Eunuch Su passed away, Xiao Anzi also interceded for Xiao Dingzi. Logically speaking, Xiao Anzi and Xiao Dingzi had a very good relationship. Now Xiao Dingzi is in trouble because of Xiao Anzi’s character.

Help should be given, but why do you allow this little treasure to bully little Dingzi like this? Could it be that Qingzhu dare not think about it further? In Qingzhu's eyes, Qingzhu has always regarded Xiao Anzi as his friend. If Xiao Anzi didn't

If you can't believe it, then who can you trust in this deep palace?

Xiaoyu saw that Queen Qing was already suspicious of Xiao Anzi, and she felt a little sad. Xiaoyu didn't say anything, but brought a cup of hot tea to Queen Qing and said to Queen Qing, "Queen Qing, drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."

Warm yourself, I will never betray Queen Qing, I swear."

Qingzhu looked at Xiaoyu and smiled and said, "Can I still not understand what you are thinking? There are just some things that make me feel a little chilled when I think about them." What Qingzhu meant by this was Xiao Anzi. Having been with Xiao Anzi for so long, he actually

I don’t know much about Xiao Anzi at all, he seems to be a bit unfamiliar, which makes me feel a little chilled.

Xiaoyu wanted to persuade Queen Qing not to be too sad because of Xiao Anzi, but she swallowed back the words she was about to say, after all, there were others around at this time.

Qingzhu stared at Xiao Baozi who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "Tell me, was there someone who instigated you to insult Xiao Dingzi like this?"

Xiao Baozi raised his head and glanced at the Qing Queen. He was so frightened by the angry look in the Qing Queen's eyes that he quickly lowered his head and said, "Queen, please forgive me. No one instructs this slave to do this. It's all the slaves who deserve to die. I'm not a good slave."

Qingzhu glanced at Xiao Baozi contemptuously and said, "No one gave instructions? Then tell me, where did Xiao Dingzi offend you? You want you to treat him so viciously?"

"This, this" Xiao Baozi hesitated for a long time without saying anything.

With a "pop" sound, Qingzhu angrily slapped his hand on the table, and the teacup on the table immediately fell to the ground and shattered.

Little Baozi was so frightened that his legs trembled and he collapsed on the ground.

Qingzhu walked up to Xiao Baozi, looked down with big eyes, stared at Xiao Baozi who was slumped on the ground, and said in a cold voice, "You want to know who is the real master of this harem, as long as I say a word,

You should know better than me whether it’s life or death?”

Xiao Baozi hurriedly kowtowed to Queen Qing and begged for mercy with tears streaming down his face, "Queen Qing, please forgive me, Queen Qing, please forgive me. I really don't want to die, I don't want to die."

Qingzhuyou sat back in his original seat and said, "As long as you answer my questions well, I will naturally not do anything to you. Your life means nothing to me."

"Yes, what Queen Qing said is true. As long as Queen Qing asks, I will answer truthfully." Xiao Baozi said.

Qingzhu asked, "Tell me, did someone instruct you to target Xiao Dingzi?"

Xiao Baozi replied, "Yes."

Qingzhu then asked, "Who is it?"

Xiao Baozi began to hesitate and did not dare to tell the truth.

Qingzhu originally didn't want this matter to be related to Xiao Anzi, but based on Xiao Baozi's current reaction, it seems that it is inseparable from Xiao Anzi. "Why does Mr. An want you to do this?"

Xiao Baozi hesitated again and said nothing.

"Is there something unspeakable?" Qingzhu looked at Xiao Baozi's hesitant look and thought that this little Baozi must have something in Xiao Anzi's hands, otherwise at this time, Xiao Baozi would have to hide it for Xiao Anzi.

The truth.

Xiao Baozi knew that he would die and be tortured to death by Eunuch An, so he might as well tell Queen Qing the truth. He had done so many bad things for Eunuch An, and if he did a good deed before his death, it would be better for him to tell the King of Hell.

The King of Hell asked for mercy so that he would suffer less after death. Xiao Baozi said, "It was Gonggong An who ordered the slave to torture Xiaodingzi. It is best to torture Xiaodingzi to death. Gonggong An said that as long as Xiaodingzi dies, he will let the slave

In front of the supervisor of the imperial kitchen."

Qingzhu was a little confused about Xiao Baozi's words, so he asked, "Does Mr. An have any grudge against Xiao Dingzi? Why do you target Xiao Dingzi like this?"

"This slave doesn't know. I heard from my godfather that Xiao Dingzi seems to know something about Mr. An, so he must die," Xiao Baozi said.

Qingzhu said to Xiao Dingzi who was kneeling aside in a daze, "Have you ever had a grudge with Mr. An?"

Xiao Dingzi shook his head and said, "Minion and Xiao An, no, it's Eunuch An. I used to celebrate the holidays with Eunuch An when I was working under Eunuch Su. My silver was stolen by Eunuch Su once. It was Eunuch An who told me.

Mr. An has no reason to harm me."

"Eunuch Su stole your money? Isn't it unreasonable to say this? Eunuch Su's monthly salary is several times your annual salary. The things the emperor rewards are also valuable, why do you care so much about what you have in your hands?

A little money? Although Eunuch Su was a little harsh on his subordinates during his lifetime, according to my understanding of Eunuch Su, he would never steal." Qingzhu denied Xiao Ding's words.

When Xiao Dingzi thought about it, he felt that it made sense, "Did I wrong Eunuch Su?" Xiao Dingzi said regretfully, "Eunuch Su, I'm sorry. It's because Xiao Dingzi was stupid and didn't understand the matter clearly, so I wronged you. If it weren't for me, you would

You won’t be mad at me either.”

"What?" Qingzhu was startled, looked at Xiao Dingzi and asked, "Is it because of this incident that you had a conflict with Eunuch Su that made Eunuch Su angry to death?"

Xiao Dingzi nodded guiltily.

Qingzhu thought to himself that it seemed that Eunuch Su's death was about to be re-examined. Qingzhu said to Xiaobaozi, "Xiaobaozi, I want you to tell the truth, so I will make up for it and won't pursue today's matter with you for the time being.

I have been staying in the cold palace, hearing nothing and seeing nothing."

"Thank you very much, Empress Qing, for not only sparing this slave my humble life, but also for not holding me accountable for his crimes. I will definitely go through fire and water for Empress Qing from now on." Xiao Baozi quickly kowtowed to thank her, and her life was saved.

Qingzhu said to Xiao Dingzi, "Xiao Dingzi, just stay in the imperial kitchen and work as a servant. No one will bully you in the future." Qingzhu looked at Xiao Baozi and asked, "Xiao Baozi, are you right?"

Xiao Baozi nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, yes."

"Okay, I'm exhausted." Qingzhu said to everyone.

Xiaoyu said to Xiaobaozi and Xiaodingzi, "If anyone leaks the slightest bit of news about your meeting with Queen Qing today, be careful to bring unnecessary death to yourself. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Xiao Baozi and Xiao Dingzi said in unison.

"Okay, you all go down." Xiaoyu said.

"Yes" Xiao Baozi and Xiao Dingzi bowed and left the cold palace.

As soon as Xiao Baozi walked out of the cold palace, he felt that Queen Qing was so generous and kind to him, so he decided to tell Queen Qing something. Xiao Baozi ran back to the cold palace again.

"Queen Qing, I have something to report." Xiao Baozi shouted loudly as soon as he entered the room.

"What?" Qingzhu saw Xiaobaozi running back again, thinking that he had something important to report.

Xiao Anzi knelt on the ground and said, "It's about Eunuch An. The reason why I didn't dare to report Eunuch An just now is because Eunuch An gave me poison."

Qingzhu and Xiaoyu were both shocked by Xiaobaozi's words and looked at each other.

"This is a chronic poison that attacks once a month. If you don't take the antidote before the attack, you will be poisoned and die. You must take the whole pill to completely detoxify the antidote, but Mr. An only gives us half a pill each time.

It can only temporarily delay the pain caused by the poison, so we need Mr. An’s antidote every month to survive. Mr. An just takes advantage of this and makes us sacrifice our lives for him." Xiao Baozi said.

Qingzhu asked, "Is everything you said true?"

Xiao Baozi said seriously, "Everything I said is true and absolutely false. Please Queen Qing, please be careful about Eunuch An. I still have something to do, so I will leave first."

"Yes." Qingzhu nodded.
