Chapter 266: Difficult to protect oneself

Aunt Qiu was suddenly poisoned, and there was an uproar everywhere. Immediately afterwards, a servant went to call the imperial doctor, and Aunt Qiu was also sent back to her room. [ ]

Looking at the chaotic scene, the smile on the imperial concubine's face flashed away. Although it was only Aunt Qiu who was poisoned and she was not satisfied, this time could also dampen the concubine's spirit. Thinking of this

, she sneered, and followed the Queen Mother and the Emperor, leaving all the concubines looking at each other, and those who knew the inside story looked at Wei Ning'er in shock.

Wei Ning'er had just been talking to Concubine Jia, and had not paid attention to the Queen Mother and the Emperor above. Concubine Chun saw it, grabbed Wei Ning'er's hand and said urgently: "Sister, Aunt Qiu was poisoned after eating the mooncakes given by the Queen Mother. Then

You made the mooncakes!"

"What?" Wei Ning'er suddenly turned pale and then forced herself to calm down.

"How is it possible? We also ate it. Isn't it good? Why did Aunt Qiu get poisoned after eating it?" Concubine Jia said in a voiceless voice.

"What should we do now? This matter can be big or small. Sister Lingfei, think about it carefully. What went wrong?" Concubine Yu also looked panicked.

Wei Ning'er shook her head violently: "I made these mooncakes myself, and only Bingruo and Qingyan helped me. So many mooncakes are made together, how could one be poisonous?" Wei Ning'er also couldn't understand, but at this time

At this moment, she was extremely worried.

After a while, Wu Shulai hurried over to deliver the order: "The emperor has issued an order to the concubine to see you, and the other ladies should leave first!"

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er had no choice but to bite the bullet and go with Wu Shu.

The concubines present did not disperse immediately. After Wei Ning'er left, everyone immediately started talking about it.

"Your concubine is so brave, she actually dared to poison the mooncakes. If the Queen Mother hadn't rewarded the mooncakes to Aunt Qiu, and if the Queen Mother had eaten it herself, then..." Yi Bi said and gave a slight pause.

Dayton.

"No, the Queen Mother ate only two of the mooncakes on the plate and gave them to the slaves. I feel scared when I think about it. If the Queen Mother accidentally ate the poisonous mooncakes just now, the consequences would be disastrous!

" Concubine Shu also agreed.

"The murder of the Queen Mother is a grave crime against the nine clans!" the Bahrain nobleman said, taking a deep breath.

"Shut up!" Concubine Jia shouted: "What kind of decency do you have to talk nonsense here without any basis? Have you not heard the emperor's will? Get out of here!"

"Is it possible that I should send you off personally?" Concubine Chun also shouted.

"Yes!" Concubine Shu and others did not dare to compete with them and immediately retreated.

"I'm afraid your sister, your concubine, may be in trouble this time!" Concubine Yu said with a frown.

"Now we can only go back to the palace and wait for the news. I don't believe that this poison was administered by your concubine. Your concubine is smart and will definitely turn disaster into good luck!" Concubine Jia took a deep breath and said, as if to comfort everyone.

Among everyone present, only Lu Yunxi remained silent, but she was as worried and uneasy as anyone else.

Wei Ning'er followed Wu Shulai to the backyard of Cining Palace where the maids lived. The emperor was standing in the courtyard and did not go in. When he saw Wei Ning'er coming, he took her hand and led her aside.

"Your Majesty, I did not poison you!" Wei Ning'er said quickly.

The emperor nodded solemnly: "I know you didn't poison, and I've ordered someone to check!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wei Ning'er said with a hint of trembling.

"It would be great if Aunt Qiu is fine, but if her life is at stake, I'm afraid the Queen will not let it go. If the murderer cannot be found as soon as possible, Ning'er, I'm afraid I will have to wrong you for a while!" the emperor decided.

He looked at Wei Ning'er and said seriously.

"Your Majesty, I did not poison me. I will not admit to the unfounded charges!" Wei Ning'er couldn't help shouting.

At this moment, she felt very disappointed. Could it be that if the murderer could not be found, then she should be blamed to relieve the Queen Mother's only hatred?

"I didn't say I wanted you to plead guilty. As long as I'm here, you can rest assured that I will keep you safe and restore your innocence!" The emperor held her hand tightly.

At this moment, Doctor Li walked out of Aunt Qiu's room in a panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the poison that Aunt Qiu was exposed to is very toxic. The poison has entered into the internal organs. I will try my best to wait for you."

Already."

At this moment, the intermittent cries of the little maids could be heard in the room.

The emperor's expression changed, and he immediately said to Wei Ning'er: "Wait here, I'll go in and take a look!"

After a while, the emperor helped the grieving queen mother out and walked out. When the queen mother saw Wei Ning'er, she pushed the emperor away. She took a few steps forward and gave Wei Ning'er a slap in the face, shouting: "You damn thing, you."

Why are you poisoning the mooncakes? The Ai family’s Auntie Qiu is gone, and the Ai family wants you to pay with your life!”

"Empress Dowager!" The emperor grabbed the Queen Mother and said urgently: "The poison was not caused by your concubine. It will not be too late for Empress Dowager to find out and punish her!"

"Emperor, if Aijia eats that moon cake, it will be Aijia who meets the King of Hell now." The Queen Mother cried out.

When the emperor heard this, he trembled all over: "Your Majesty, I know that you are not happy right now. I am also angry when something like this happens. Someone in the palace dares to poison the master's food. It is blameless.

Forgive me, I will definitely find out." The emperor said to Wei Ning'er: "Your concubine, please step back first!"

Wei Ning'er knew that it was unreasonable for the Queen Mother to be so angry at this time. If she stayed, she would annoy the Queen Mother, so she had to leave.

The emperor sent the empress dowager back to the palace and helped her lie down on the couch. To be fair, the emperor had never seen the empress dowager so sad. Even when the empress dowager died, he did not feel so sad. Instead, he was extremely calm and arranged many matters.

, to help him ascend to the throne.

But at this moment, the emperor felt the Queen Mother's grief. This pain was as heartbreaking as when he lost the Queen.

"Empress Dowager, please forgive me." The emperor held the Queen Mother's hand and advised her softly.

The Queen Mother looked sad: "Emperor, Qiu Chan has been serving the Ai family for almost fifty years. Now that she is gone, the Ai family feels uncomfortable. When she was only a few years old, she entered the mansion and served the Ai family.

Around her, when the Ai family entered Prince Yong's palace, she also followed the Ai family. If she hadn't been able to do some martial arts and be familiar with medicine, the Ai family would have been killed in the palace. If she hadn't sacrificed her life to protect him many times,

The Ai family is not what it is today, and maybe I couldn't give birth to you safely at that time. The emperor... In the Ai family's heart, she is like a biological sister of the Ai family, no... closer than them."

"Empress Dowager!" The emperor felt uncomfortable in his heart and comforted the Queen Mother for a long time. It was not until the Queen Mother was tired and fell asleep that he went outside the palace and said to Wu Shulai: "Preach my decree and all the servants who serve your concubine will be sent to you."

Sent to the Department of Shenxing for strict interrogation, and there is also a servant serving the Queen Mother today!"

"Your Majesty, what about Aunt Lumo?" Wu Shulai looked at the Emperor with some embarrassment.

"It's just green foam!" The emperor waved his hand gently.

"Yes!" Wu Shulai immediately followed the order.

With such a big event happening tonight, Wei Ning'er naturally couldn't sleep. After returning to Yanxi Palace, she sat quietly on a chair until Hu Shijie came to deliver the order.

"The emperor said that all the servants around me will be brought for interrogation?" Wei Ning'er took a breath after hearing this. If this is the case, even if she did not do this, I am afraid she will not be able to get away.

There are so many slaves in Yanxi Palace, and she can't guarantee that all of them will be loyal to her. If there is a traitor here, she will be in trouble. Moreover, under severe punishment, it is inevitable that some people will be beaten and beaten.

With such a good opportunity, Wei Ning'er didn't believe that the imperial concubine would not act with caution.

"Yes, if we don't find the murderer now, the Queen Mother will not be able to explain it, and it will be difficult for you to protect yourself. Your Majesty wants to find the murderer and restore your innocence!" Hu Shijie said anxiously.

"If the murderer is found next to me, will I still be innocent?" Wei Ning'er couldn't help but sneer.

It is true that the emperor loves her, but... once the matter involves the Queen Mother, she will always be the one abandoned. After all, the emperor's biological mother lives in Cining Palace, and the current Queen Mother, in

In the emperor's heart, he is probably many times more important than everyone in the harem.

The emperor kept saying that he believed in her, but this trust was too fragile.

"Don't worry, I will personally take people to the Shenxing Division. I will watch from the side during the interrogation. If any slave says something that shouldn't be said, I will deal with it!" Hu Shijie's face was full of solemnity.

"Brother Lao Wenhao!" Wei Ning'er nodded lightly, then asked him to be accommodating, and called all her minions in.

Wei Ning'er looked at the minions, feeling slightly sour in her heart. She took a deep breath and said, "You must all know that someone framed me and poisoned the mooncakes. Aunt Qiu who was next to the Queen Mother was poisoned and died. Now you are going to

After being sent to the Department of Caution for interrogation, I asked myself that I was upright and would never do such dirty things. This poison is not

It is not you who are subordinate to me. I went to the Shenxing Division. You must know very well what to do. I and you will both prosper and suffer. If something happens to me, you will not be able to live alone. Poisoning the Queen Mother will be punished.

You have been working in the palace for a long time, so you are clearly aware of the serious crimes committed by the nine clans, so I don’t need to say anything more about them!"

"Yes, your Majesty, your slaves, etc. will be loyal to your Majesty without any second thoughts!" Everyone responded in unison.

"You all know what kind of place Shenxingsi is. I want to see that you come back alive. Remember, you must live!" Wei Ning'er couldn't help but shed tears when she said this.

"Your Majesty, your servants will definitely come back and continue to serve your Majesty. I will stay by your side for the rest of your life!" Bingruo kowtowed after saying this, got up and went out.

"Mother, take care!" Xiao Yizi, Qingyan and others also bowed and followed Bingruo.

"Brother Wenhao, please, try your best to save them!" Wei Ning'er cried.

"Don't worry, I will do my best!" Hu Shijie nodded sharply.

At this time, Lu Mo was walking back and forth anxiously in the Cining Palace's bedroom, really wishing to wake up the sleeping Queen Mother.
