Chapter 122 Poison
"Bold bitch, the Queen Mother is here. If she doesn't come out to accept the crime, it is possible that the Queen Mother must go into the palace in person. Someone is coming. Please drag her out of the palace quickly!" The imperial concubine saw the Queen Mother's face change slightly, knowing that the Queen Mother
When he got angry, he shouted loudly. [ ]
"Yes!" Feng Qingzhou responded and rushed in with the eunuch Xiao Weizi and others.
Wu Shulai was afraid of the Queen Mother, but not afraid of them, so he stopped everyone and shouted: "You are so bold, you dare to break into the emperor's bedroom without being summoned by the emperor. You are seeking death!"
There are rules in the palace. No one is allowed to enter the emperor's bedroom without being summoned. This is why everyone goes outside the bedroom but does not go in.
Everyone present, except the Queen Mother, no one had the courage, not even the imperial concubine, so they had to bluff and send the servants in.
Feng Qingzhou and others were so frightened by Wu Shulai that they immediately retreated behind the imperial concubine without daring to express their anger.
The Queen Mother glanced at the imperial concubine with a hint of warning, and then said to Aunt Qiu beside her: "Send someone to bring a chair to the Ai family!"
"Your Majesty!" Aunt Qiu looked at her in disbelief.
"Since she doesn't want to come out, the Ai family will be waiting here!" Although the Queen Mother had a smile on her face, her eyes were cold.
"The Queen Mother must not do this. It's freezing cold today. Your health is very important!" Concubine Chun said anxiously.
"Yes, Queen Mother, please think twice!" Concubine Jia also agreed.
The Queen Mother slightly raised her hand to signal them not to say anything.
The imperial concubine felt extremely happy. The empress dowager's move eliminated Wei Ning'er's escape route. Although the imperial concubine didn't know why it was Wei Ning'er who accompanied the emperor yesterday, this result was the best for her.
In the dormitory, Wei Ning'er was also restless. When she heard the little palace maid next to her telling her that the Queen Mother was sitting outside waiting for her, she was shaken all over and hurriedly left the dormitory.
"Girl, Eunuch Wu has given orders that you must not be allowed to go out!" Grandma Li stopped her.
"Mommy, get out of the way!" Wei Ning'er naturally didn't want to go out and be humiliated, but at this time, the life and death of her Wei family were in the hands of the emperor. The Queen Mother was the Emperor's biological mother. If the Queen Mother caught the cold and fell ill outside, then the Emperor would be afraid
She will be blamed. At that time, not only the lives of the Wei family cannot be saved, but even more people will be implicated.
"Get out of the way..."
"Girl..." Nanny Li did not dare to pull hard with Wei Ning'er, so she could only watch her walk out of the dormitory.
As soon as she left the dormitory, Wei Ning'er, who was dressed a little thinly, felt the biting coldness and couldn't help but shudder. Outside the dormitory, the Queen Mother was sitting on a red wooden chair, with the imperial concubine and others standing on both sides of her.
Wei Ning'er walked over step by step without any cowardice, stood in front of the Queen Mother, and slowly knelt down: "My slave, please pay your respects to the Queen Mother!"
"Wei Ning'er!" The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes.
"My servant is here!" Wei Ning'er said respectfully.
"Do you know your sin by staying in Yangxin Hall?" the Queen Mother said solemnly.
"This slave is guilty!" Wei Ning'er didn't dare to raise her head.
"If you want to use a candlestick to assassinate the emperor, you must know your guilt!" A murderous intention flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.
Wei Ning'er hesitated slightly. She couldn't bear this crime no matter what. It didn't matter if she died, but she wanted to keep her mother and brother safe.
Thinking of this, Wei Ning'er composed herself and said: "I would like to inform the Queen Mother, even if I have great courage, I would not dare to assassinate the Emperor! Please give me a clear warning from the Queen Mother."
"Don't you dare? Why don't you dare? You still dare to deny it in front of everyone. The Ai family thinks you are tired of living!" the Queen Mother said coldly.
"The Queen Mother clearly noticed that the slave did not use the candlestick to assassinate the emperor. The slave accidentally knocked down the candlestick, so she picked it up. At that time, someone happened to enter the bedroom. The slave was disheveled and fell down in panic. This
That's what people misunderstood!" Wei Ning'er was extremely calm in her heart, but her face was very panicked, with a look of sincere fear.
"Do you think Aijia is a three-year-old child? Are you allowed to fool me? Aijia can ignore other things and don't care about them. As long as the emperor likes Aijia, he will not say a word more. But Aijia will never tolerate anyone harming the emperor.
, even if you are careless, the Ai family cannot keep you!" The emperor is her only child and the person she cares about most in her life. She will never allow anyone to hurt him, even if it is a potential crisis, she must get rid of it.
Looking at Wei Ning'er kneeling on the ground, the Queen Mother did not want any bloodshed in the palace. Although she could not bear it, she could not spare her, so she said to the eunuch Ma Renyi: "Bring it up!"
"Yes..." Eunuch Ma Renyi responded, then shouted back: "Bring it up!"
I saw a little eunuch hunched over and trotting forward carrying a tray.
Ma Renyi pulled away the white cloth covering it, and inside were a pot of wine, a dagger, and a piece of white silk.
"Give it to her!" the Queen Mother said solemnly.
"Girl, please!" Ma Renyi took the tray from the eunuch's hand, bowed down, and said to Wei Ning'er.
Wei Ning'er raised her head and then closed her eyes. She would definitely die today, but she couldn't harm her family.
After a while, Wei Ning'er knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Empress Dowager, I know in my heart that I have committed a capital crime today, and death is not a pity. However, my family is innocent. Please show mercy to me, Empress Dowager, and spare their lives. I will live forever."
We will all remember your kindness, Queen Mother."
At this moment, she had made up her mind to die, and her only regret was that she would not be able to see Fu Heng and E Niang again before she died.
The Queen Mother looked at her, with a complicated look in her eyes. Once upon a time, she had also encountered death threats. At that time, she also thought that she could not sin against her family. Looking at the desperate Wei Ning'er, the Queen Mother seemed to have seen the past.
of oneself.
As soon as she entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea. She had experienced more heartbreak, blood and tears than anyone else, and she could see it more clearly.
"Okay, the Aijia promise you that I will not offend your family!" The Queen Mother nodded slightly.
"My slave, thank you, the Queen Mother, for your kindness!" Wei Ning'er was overjoyed, and after kowtowing heavily to the Queen Mother, she turned her eyes to the tray in front of her.
Finally, she reached out and picked up the wine glass.
Since it is meant to bring death, there must be poison in this wine. Poison is highly toxic and will cause death within a few moments of taking it.
As long as you drink this glass of wine, all your worries and pain will disappear.
Fu Heng, forgive me for not being able to wait for you any longer, and not being able to keep the promise between you and me...Forgive me for being cowardly, leaving you alone, whether you blame me or hate me, it's all just a dream.
.
Scenes of the two of them together flashed through Wei Ning'er's mind. She closed her eyes, with a faint smile on her face. The wine glass in her hand slowly moved to her lips, her red lips slightly parted.
Wu Shulai was so scared that he lost his soul when he saw the scene in front of him. If Wei Ning'er died, the emperor would definitely kill him, not to mention how he would explain to Hu Shijie.
Thinking of this, Wu Shulai rushed forward with a death wish.
"Don't drink!" Ruoyan, who was hiding quietly not far away, was one step faster than Wu Shulai. She rushed over and knocked the wine glass out of Wei Ning'er's hand.
Hearing that the Queen Mother asked the eunuchs to bring poisoned wine, daggers and other objects to the Palace of Cultivation of the Heart, the Queen sent her there in a soft sedan regardless of her own injuries.
Ruoyan was too worried and ran over first, but when he saw this scene, he rushed forward desperately.
"Ruoyan!" Wei Ning'er stared blankly at Ruoyan, who was in tears, and then pushed her away: "Get out of the way and leave!"
"No, I won't leave, you can't die, I don't want you to die!" What will Fu Heng do if you die? What should he do? Ruoyan yelled in his heart.
"How dare you, you slut!" the imperial concubine shouted.
The Queen Mother frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied with the concubine's mean manner, and then said to Ma Renyi: "Pull this maid away!"
"Yes!" Ma Renyi immediately asked people to pull Ruoyan away, but Ruoyan held Wei Ning'er tightly and refused to let go. Even if the eunuchs gradually lost their patience and started punching and kicking her, she would not let go.
"Sister..." Seeing Ruoyan being beaten, Shu Bin forced herself not to care, but tears burst out. When she saw blood spilling from the corner of Ruoyan's mouth, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she stumbled over and blocked her.
If you study before.
"Empress Dowager, please spare my sister, I will take her away right away!" Concubine Shu begged for mercy while going to pull Ruoyan away.
"Go away, there's no need for you to pretend to be kind!" Ruoyan pushed her away.
"What kind of quarrel is this? Aunt Qiu, bring someone up and pull them all apart!" The Queen Mother was furious.
"Yes, your Majesty!" Aunt Qiu immediately led the maids up, and after a while she pulled Ruoyan away.
"Ning'er, don't drink, you can't die, you..." Ruoyan shouted loudly but was knocked unconscious by Aunt Qiu's palm.
"Ma Renyi, why are you still standing there? Why don't you pour her another glass of wine!" Before everyone had come to their senses, the imperial concubine said to Ma Renyi.
Ma Renyi turned around and looked at the Queen Mother. When the Queen Mother nodded, he poured another glass of wine.
At this moment, Wei Ning'er took the glass of wine no longer as calmly as before. Her hands trembled slightly, and a thousand kinds of reluctance welled up in her heart.
"The Queen has arrived!" At this moment, the Queen arrived.
"May the Queen be blessed!" Everyone saluted immediately.
"You are injured and are not resting. Why are you here?" The Queen Mother looked at the Queen, feeling slightly distressed, but more dissatisfied.
"I would like to pay my respects to the Queen. Please forgive me for being injured and unable to perform the full ceremony!" The Queen wanted to salute, but her waist was injured and she could only stand stiffly.
"Forget it, queen, the Aijia knows your purpose of coming, she is just a palace maid, why do you bother to protect her like this? If you just stay overnight in the Yangxin Palace, the Aijia will give up. After all, the Aijia has heard about what happened last night.
Yes, the situation is very special, but you have never seen her holding a candlestick to assassinate the emperor today, how can the Ai family spare her!" The Queen Mother simply made it clear to the Empress.
"Ning'er!" After the queen heard this, her heart trembled suddenly, and she immediately looked at Wei Ning'er.
"Your Majesty, this slave...this slave did not assassinate the emperor!" Wei Ning'er shook her head gently. She didn't know he was the emperor at the time, so how could she possibly assassinate him.
"Empress Huang, I believe that Ning'er will never dare to be so bold. Maybe she has misunderstood. If she really assassinates the emperor, how can she wait peacefully in the Yangxin Palace for you to come and ask for guilt? Or should she wait for the emperor to come down?
