Seeing the shy and timid smile on Duogui's face, Wei Ning'er felt a sense of boredom in her heart for no reason. For some reason, she felt unhappy all over when she saw this hypocritical woman. [ ]

A woman in her late thirties behaves like a young woman in her early twenties. Although she does look to be in her early twenties, it still makes people feel creepy.

Wei Ning'er looked at her intently. She didn't understand why the emperor would fall in love with such a person. Not only was she scheming and acting strangely, but she was also inconsistent, delicate and pretentious. It was really disgusting. She didn't even want to see this woman.

"Your Majesty, I respect you!" Seeing that Wei Ning'er was still sitting firmly on the chair, the noble lady couldn't help but smile happily again, but there was a hint of grievance in her words.

In full view of the public, the emperor made another decree. Does your concubine dare not to give her face? That would be a slap in the emperor's face. Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on the noble man's face.

Wei Ning'er grabbed the wine glass on the table, glanced at the noble man with an expressionless expression, and drank it all in one gulp.

The noble lady froze immediately. Even when she offered a toast to the queen, the queen stood up from her chair and accepted it with a smile. But this concubine actually... refused to even stand up. It was really embarrassing for her.

At this moment, Duoguiren remembered what Concubine Chun said just now. Indeed, although she was of noble birth, she was an unwanted woman and an ominous woman. But was she really not worthy of serving the emperor? She had never thought so.

.

The moment of anger made Duogui's eyes turn red. She couldn't help lowering her head and whispered in front of Wei Ning'er: "The queen looks down on the concubine because she seduced the emperor, right? It's a pity... Although the concubine

It’s not fair and aboveboard, but my dear, you were just a palace maid at the beginning, and you worked hard to get to where you are today, so why do you look down on your concubines?”

When Wei Ning'er heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she raised her hand uncontrollably, giving the noble man a clean slap.

After the crisp sound, the hall where people were whispering suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at them, their faces full of surprise, and then shock.

The noble man suddenly came back to his senses, immediately covered his face and started sobbing. He knelt on the ground and apologized in fear: "My queen, it's my fault. I know my sin. Please forgive me!"

Seeing that the originally happy birthday banquet was made weird by this sudden slap, the Queen Mother also had a hint of displeasure on her face, but when she saw Wei Ning'er slap the woman she didn't want to see, she felt very happy for no reason, so

He watched the changes quietly without making a sound.

"Your Majesty, this is the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, you are being too presumptuous!" the Queen stood up suddenly and shouted.

"Queen, I think it's my concubine's opinion that it was these noble people who spoke rudely, so my sister taught her a lesson!" Although Imperial Concubine Chun didn't know what the noble people just said in Wei Ning'er's ears, she knew Wei Ning'er's temperament.

Bottom line, she would never do something so unruly in such an occasion.

However, to cause such a thing in front of all the emperor's relatives would be a joke, and the emperor's face became increasingly ugly. Although he didn't say a word, everyone knew that the emperor was angry, and even more so.

I don’t dare to express my anger.

Fu Heng and Ruoyan, who were sitting below, had their hearts in their throats. Especially Ruoyan, who was so frightened that he immediately held Fu Heng's hand and looked at him with a horrified look on his face.

Fu Heng shook his head gently and told her not to worry too much, but he didn't notice it, and his palms were sweating.

After being slapped, Wei Ning'er didn't feel the slightest regret in her heart. She even felt extremely relaxed, as if the gloom of the past few days had been swept away. When she saw the emperor looking at her coldly, she didn't feel a trace of fear in her heart. She even raised her head to face him.

The emperor's cold eyes showed no fear.

She had beaten so many noble people in full view of the public, and now she was still looking at the emperor confidently, with such a stubborn and righteous look that the Queen Mother couldn't help but want to cheer for her.

Although she had never liked Wei Ning'er, she had to admit that this woman was indeed an anomaly in the harem.

"Your Majesty, why do you want to beat this noble lady?" the Queen Mother asked with a smile, without a trace of displeasure on her face.

"To report to the Queen Mother, I accidentally hit a nobleman by mistake. Please forgive me!" At this moment, how could Wei Ning'er say what the nobleman said just now in front of everyone?

What an insult to her.

Climbing onto the dragon's bed to seduce the emperor... She really couldn't say such vulgar words.

The Queen Mother did not expect that Wei Ning'er would say this. She couldn't help but smile. She was about to speak, but she didn't think about the noble lady, but she cried: "Your Majesty, it is not good that I am a concubine. I know that I am an unlucky woman and I am not worthy of it."

Serving the emperor, if the concubine can accept the concubine, the concubine will be willing to receive a few more slaps from the empress. I beg the empress not to let the concubine leave the emperor, then the concubine will only die!"

Looking at Duogui's little face full of tears, Wei Ning'er smiled. This woman must have planned it for a long time. She actually attacked her in front of everyone at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, and she was stupid enough to fall for it, but... she didn't

regret.

"You actually dared to cry and make trouble at the Ai family's birthday banquet, seeking death and living. You are so ignorant of etiquette. I can't blame your concubine for giving you a slap. Well done. However, the Ai family didn't wake you up with that slap."

Mo, slap the Ai family!" The Queen Mother could no longer stand it and shouted in a deep voice.

"Forgive me, the Queen Mother!" The noble lady was stunned. She didn't understand why the Queen Mother wanted to protect your concubine. Even though the Queen Mother hated her, she didn't like your concubine either.

"Your Majesty, I don't think you have any good intentions. Please come and send your nobles back to Xianfu Palace and ask the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment!" The emperor, who had been silent for a long time, said coldly, his words full of doubts.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" The noble man thanked him and then withdrew in tears.

"The Ai family is tired, let's disperse!" The Queen Mother stood up unhappily and let Lu Mo help her to the back hall.

"Farewell to the Emperor!" The emperor bowed slightly.

"Farewell to the Queen Mother!" Everyone immediately stood up and saluted.

After the Queen Mother left, the emperor's eyes fell on Wei Ning'er. Under everyone's surprised gazes, he quickly walked up to Wei Ning'er and said coldly: "Follow me!"

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er nodded gently.

Concubine Chun and others looked at Wei Ning'er with great worry after hearing this. Wei Ning'er shook her head gently, indicating that they did not need to worry.

"Eniang..." Yongxuan stepped forward and took her hand.

"Take your brothers and sisters back to the palace and take good care of them!" Wei Ning'er looked at Yongxuan, her face full of tenderness.

"Yes!" Yongxuan reluctantly let go of her and shouted behind her: "Mother, I'm waiting for you back at Yanxi Palace!"

When Wei Ning'er heard this, she sighed softly. She knew that today's incident would probably be difficult to deal with. The emperor did not reprimand her in public, perhaps because he wanted to save her the last bit of face due to his past friendship.

After leaving the hall, the oncoming cold wind was biting. Wei Ning'er frowned slightly. She gathered up her fox fur cloak and looked at the emperor who was waiting for her not far away. She signaled to Bingruo and the others that they did not need to follow, and then she stepped away.

Walked past.

"Follow me!" The emperor glanced at her coldly, and then said to Wu Shulai and other minions: "You don't have to follow me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wu Shulai responded with some fear.

Wei Ning'er sighed secretly in her heart and walked forward behind the emperor. She didn't know where the emperor was going, so she just followed him aimlessly. There was only a palace lantern every few feet on the palace road in the middle of the night, and it flickered on and off.

, and the snow was extremely dazzling, making it difficult for her to see clearly, and she was wearing high-soled shoes. Although she stepped carefully, she was afraid of not being able to keep up with the emperor's footsteps, and almost fell down several times.

The noise coming from behind made the emperor want to turn around several times, but he thought that it would be impossible without teaching her a lesson, so he made up his mind and forced himself to move forward until he could no longer hear him.

There was a noise, and my heart suddenly lurched. I couldn't help but turn around, and there was no trace of Wei Ning'er on the snow-covered palace road.

"Ning'er..." The emperor felt his heart suddenly rise and shouted. Except for the terrifying silence, there was no sound at all. He walked back quickly until he reached the corner.

He saw Wei Ning'er squatting on the ground.

"Where is the injury?" The emperor knelt down and tried to pick her up, but Wei Ning'er gently pushed him away and stood up.

When the emperor saw that she was safe and sound, he stood up, held her hand tightly, and walked forward, but this time, he slowed down.

"Where to go?" Wei Ning'er couldn't help but ask.

The emperor did not answer her, but kept walking forward. It was not until Wei Ning'er felt that her legs were weak and she could no longer move that the emperor stopped.

Wei Ning'er didn't understand. It was late at night, the sky was freezing and snowy, and her whole body ached from the cold. Why did the emperor bring her to the imperial garden?

"Ning'er!" The emperor suddenly turned his head to look at her and said with a smile, "This is where I saw you for the first time!"

Wei Ning'er raised her head and looked at the emperor in astonishment. After a while, she felt sour in her heart and almost shed tears.

"I still remember the first time I saw you, but it's a pity that it's winter and all the flowers have failed!" The emperor sighed softly.

"Your Majesty, I am my concubine..." Wei Ning'er felt bitter in her heart.

"I also remember the promise I made to you and the queen, that I will always love you and never let you get hurt!" The emperor hugged her gently and said softly.

"Your Majesty..." Wei Ning'er had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Ning'er, you are the person I cherish most now, and you will be the most precious person in the future. As for how noble you are, I won't deny it. I love her. Let's let this go for today. From now on, don't mess around anymore, and don't be willful.
