Chapter 123: A close call

When the Queen Mother heard this, a complicated look flashed in her eyes. Wei Ning'er assassinated the emperor, but the emperor wanted to hide the matter. This shows that in the emperor's heart, this Wei Ning'er was extraordinary. [ ]

But as an emperor, he absolutely cannot favor one woman exclusively. When the emperor devoted himself to the queen, she was really worried for many years. Fortunately, someone later showed some favor to her. Now... how could she watch helplessly?

The past repeats itself.

"Aunt Qiu!" the Queen Mother said solemnly.

"My slave is here!" Aunt Qiu bowed slightly.

"Let her drink it!" There was no room for change in the Queen Mother's words.

"Empress, you must not do this!" the queen said urgently.

"Empress, this cheap maid wants to assassinate the emperor and deserves to die, but you have repeatedly interceded for her. Is it possible that there is something hidden? I remember that she is a maid in your palace!" the imperial concubine said with a sneer.

"Concubine, you mean that I ordered Ning'er to assassinate the emperor? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will never let you go today!" The queen was furious.

"That's enough, shut up the Aijia, what's the point of making such noise!" the Queen Mother shouted.

The queen said no more, and the concubine also lowered her head.

Wei Ning'er looked at the queen and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty... I am sorry for you. I have been with you since entering the palace. You have taken care of me in every possible way. I am grateful. I don't ask you to forgive me. I only ask you to believe me."

Slave, what happened last night was not what I wanted, so I can feel at ease even if I die!"

Something like that happened, and the queen was seriously injured but still rushed to save her. This made her feel so embarrassed. How could she watch the queen being slandered.

"Queen, yesterday someone deliberately drugged the emperor and deliberately lured the emperor to visit the noble lady. Everything that happened later was planned by someone. I'm afraid that person's purpose was to harm you, my queen. You should be careful.

, I can no longer serve you, and I can’t...please tell him, I can’t help you!" After saying this, Wei Ning'er suddenly put the wine glass in her hand to her mouth and raised her head, a spicy smell of wine filled the air.

Between the lips and teeth.

"Don't drink..." the queen shouted tremblingly.

At this moment, a sound broke through the air, and everyone saw a white object flying over. The wine glass in Wei Ning'er's hand fell to the ground, and then a bright yellow figure arrived in front of Wei Ning'er in a moment.

"Spit it out, spit it out for me!" The emperor pushed Wei Ning'er's head down fiercely and held her chin with his hand.

Wei Ning'er was completely confused by the sudden change. Originally, she had made up her mind to die, but now she was saved, and she was saved by the person she least wanted to see.

"Come Wu Shu, bring water!" the emperor shouted.

"Yes..." Wu Shulai immediately ran into the bedroom and brought water.

"Rinse your mouth, don't swallow it!" the emperor patted Wei Ning'er's face and said.

Wei Ning'er opened her mouth. She wanted to tell the emperor that she didn't drink the wine because he had already vomited it out.

But poison is poison after all. Even if she just held the poisoned wine in her mouth, she felt that there was no feeling at all in her mouth and her brain began to feel dizzy.

When the emperor saw her like this, his heart tightened. He immediately took out a small jade bottle from his arms, poured out the crystal clear pills inside, and fed it into her mouth.

"Emperor, no!" the Queen Mother shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty..." The queen was also a little surprised.

The imperial concubine, pure concubine and others' faces turned slightly pale.

The jade bottle contained a life-saving pill. It was refined by several imperial doctors who spent countless efforts. It was said to be able to detoxify hundreds of poisons and strengthen the body. Originally, I only got this pill.

If I am poisoned, will the emperor take out this pill to save my life? The imperial concubine couldn't help but ask herself?

Not only her, but Concubine Chun and others also thought so.

Waves of cool and comfortable feeling spread throughout the body, and Wei Ning'er's originally vague consciousness slowly came to life.

Poison poison is extremely toxic. An ancient saying goes, "It has cut off the throat before it enters the stomach and intestines." Even if the poisonous wine is not drunk, as long as a trace of the poisonous wine enters the throat, it will kill people. Fortunately, Wei Ning'er did not drink it, and again In addition, the emperor gave her the holy medicine to detoxify, which saved her life.

"Emperor, you are so confused!" Even though the Queen Mother was filled with anger, she still suppressed it in front of the Emperor.

"Empress Huang, the matter has not been found out, why should Ning'er be sentenced to death? Who just sent someone to stop Wu Shulai from sending me the little eunuch sent to Qianqing Palace? If Lili hadn't arrived in time, something would have happened. That's it." After the emperor said this, he looked at the imperial concubine, his eyes full of anger, and the princess beside him hurriedly ran to the empress' side.

"Your Majesty, I am frightened. I am unjustly accused. I did not send anyone to stop the eunuch Wu Shulai sent to Qianqing Palace!" The imperial concubine's heart thumped and she began to cry out for injustice.

"When did I say it was you?" the emperor sneered.

"Concubine..." The imperial concubine froze suddenly, but her heart was cold. The emperor was deliberately testing her, but... the emperor had never treated her like this before. Could it be because of the little baby in his arms? Bitch.

She was just a lowly palace maid who had just entered the palace, and she had been by his side for more than ten years. Could it be that their friendship was not as good as this little girl?

But now the emperor is plotting against her for this cheap maid, how can she bear this tone.

The emperor supported Wei Ning'er, who was still weak, and said to the Queen Mother: "Your Majesty is here, just in time to find out what happened yesterday with me. I will definitely cut into pieces the person who dares to scheme against me!"

"Emperor..." The Queen Mother was still unwilling to give up and still wanted to kill Wei Ning'er.

"Your Majesty, I will never kill innocent people, and I will never let off those who do wrong. As for what happened this morning, it was someone with intentions who deliberately misled Your Majesty. As the emperor, how can I take advantage of myself? It is a joke on my life, Wei Ning'er has indeed never attempted to assassinate me, Queen Mother, you can rest assured!" The emperor looked at the Queen Mother with a smile on his face.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a little moved when she heard this. Could it be that the maid who came to Cining Palace to report to her today was really bribed?

Who can actually dominate the harem and manipulate everyone in the harem? First the emperor, the queen, and then her. Who is so bold?

The Queen Mother's heart suddenly became cold, and she almost fell into the trap. Fortunately, the Emperor reminded her.

It seems that she is really old. Since her son succeeded to the throne, she has been pampered in the harem and never asked about the affairs of the harem. Over time, she has lost her former fighting spirit, but she never thought that someone would dare to put her in the harem. She also planned to go in, really looking for death.

"Come here, go to Yikun Palace to invite Concubine Xian to the Ai family, and noble Xiu. Even if you are carrying it, you must bring it to the Ai family!" The Queen Mother ordered the people around her, and then entered with the emperor. Yanxi Hall next to the dormitory hall.

Ruoyan had woken up at this time, and she stood behind the queen while supporting Wei Ning'er, who was still a little dizzy.

The emperor sat high above, looking at Wei Ning'er standing behind the queen, and wanted her to sit down too, but due to the rules and the fact that no one could find any excuses for her, he had no choice but to give up.

The concubines in the room had different expressions, but they didn't dare to make any mistakes. They were all sitting on chairs, waiting for Concubine Xian and the noble lady.

When Concubine Xian entered Yanxi Hall with the support of Mu Yun, she looked at the situation in front of her with a look of astonishment on her face, but she was sneering in her heart.

"I would like to express my regards to the Queen Mother, please express my regards to the Emperor, and express my regards to the Queen!" Concubine Xian said with a slight blessing.

"No courtesy, I'll give you a seat!" The Queen Mother sighed in her heart. She just had good intentions and never thought that such a thing would happen.

"I dare to ask the emperor, you gave me the wine last night!" After Concubine Xian sat down, the emperor looked at the Queen Mother beside him and said with a smile.

"It's a gift from the Ai family!" No one in the palace was bold enough to falsely convey Yi's decree.

"Did the Emperor send someone to check the Baihua Brew before giving it to him?" the emperor asked again.

The Queen Mother nodded slightly: "That's natural. The Queen personally brewed the Baihua Brew last year and gave it to the Ai family. Everyone in the harem knew about it. The Ai family just sent someone to open the jar of wine yesterday and let the people around them know it.

After trying the green foam, I sent someone to send a pot to you and Concubine Xian!"

After saying this, the Queen Mother looked at Lu Mo, who understood, and bowed and said: "To inform Your Majesty, the Baihua Brew slave has personally tested the poison and found nothing unusual."

The emperor nodded slightly: "So, there is nothing strange about the Baihua Brew!"

The Queen Mother said: "The Ai family heard about what happened last night early this morning, and immediately sent someone to ask the imperial doctor to check. Three branches of nine-leaf grass were found in the jar of Baihua Brewing."

"Three branches and nine leaves of clover?" The emperor looked a little confused.

When the queen heard this, her expression changed greatly, and she hurriedly said: "Empress, Your Majesty, I never put three branches of nine-leaf grass into that hundred-flower wine!"

The Queen Mother did not look at the Queen, but said to the Emperor beside her: "Three branches and nine leaves of grass are a kind of acacia!"

"In that case, it wasn't that he was tampered with when he was sent to Yikun Palace, nor was he tampered with in Yikun Palace!" The emperor frowned slightly.

"The people sent by the Ai family can be trusted!" The queen mother said, looking at the anxious queen, and said with a smile: "The Ai family doesn't believe it was the queen who did it. The wine she brewed was specially made for the Ai family. Give one as a gift.

What did the old woman do with that herb? How could she know that the Ai family gave it to the emperor before he even drank it?"

"The emperor is absolutely right!" The emperor looked at the queen and reassured her. The emperor had never doubted the queen, not before and never now.

"The Ai family called the servants of Cining Palace, large and small, to the front early this morning, and interrogated them carefully. Except for Aunt Qiu, Lu Mo and Ma Renyi, the rest are all in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The Ai family has ordered Liang Ming, the eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, to conduct a careful interrogation, and I don’t know if there are any results at this moment!" the Queen Mother said with a smile.

At this moment, Fuliu was carried in. She had had a fetal movement last night. Although the baby was saved, the imperial doctor asked her to keep her alive for the rest of her life. If not for the Queen Mother's decree, she would not have come.

"Young lady, you don't need to be polite, just lie down!" Seeing her struggling to salute, the Queen Mother said urgently.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Fuliu replied weakly.

"Your Majesty, my concubine was injured last night because someone mischievously sprinkled water on the palace road, causing the snow to freeze and the eunuchs fell down. Someone must not have wanted me to go to the showman's place.

, that person’s purpose is probably to use the emperor to get rid of the emperor’s son in Xiugui’s belly!” The queen thought for a moment and said.
