After hearing Wei Ning'er's words, Concubine Shu and Xin Bin were shocked, and they stood up almost subconsciously.【@】

"Empress, you misunderstood, concubine..."

"Xin Bin, you don't need to say more." Before Xin Bin finished speaking, Wei Ning'er interrupted her: "I have definite evidence. I have not called you here today to listen to your sophistry. If you

If you don't tell the truth honestly, I will give the evidence to the emperor, and then you will have no way out, think about it for yourself!" Wei Ning'er said solemnly.

Concubine Shu subconsciously looked at Xin Bin, their eyes full of shock.

"Concubine Shu, is it possible that you need me to bring your mother-in-law and the slave who made the clay figurine for you into the palace before you would plead guilty?" How could Wei Ning'er not know the luck in their hearts? No one wanted to plead guilty, Wei Ning'er understood.

"Your Majesty, I am aware of my guilt." Concubine Shu suddenly turned pale and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Seeing Concubine Shu confess her guilt, Concubine Xin knew that the situation was over.

In fact, if it were anyone else, even the emperor, they would not admit their guilt so easily, but Wei Ning'er has the evidence of Concubine Shu's crime. She can make excuses and use others to exonerate her. But who is Wei Ning'er? Can she be easily fooled?

, if she is really offended, there is really no way out.

Today, Wei Ning'er sent all the slaves out and invited the three of them over. It was probably not because he wanted to harm them that the two of them dared to plead guilty.

"Concubine Shu, why did you and Concubine Xin frame me?" Concubine Yu was furious. She was only sure that Concubine Xin harmed her, but she didn't expect Concubine Shu to have a hand in it.

"Sister, please be patient. Let me ask them first. I will definitely give you an explanation." Wei Ning'er looked at Concubine Yu and said with a smile.

"Then it's up to your Majesty's wishes." Concubine Yu took a deep breath and said.

No matter how angry she was, she had to give Wei Ning'er face. She also saw it today. Wei Ning'er made everything clear and actually wanted to protect Concubine Shu and Xin Concubine. Concubine Yu was still a little unhappy in her heart. After all, she had been friends with Wei Ning'er over the years.

, Wei Ning'er is helping outsiders at this time, how can she be happy?

"Concubine Shu, you once said that the queen killed your tenth prince. I can understand that you want to take revenge on her, but do you really think that a little clay figurine can kill someone?" Wei Ning'er asked helplessly.

"My dear, you can do countless curses. I only inserted the needle into the little clay figurine ten days after the twelfth prince fell ill. Isn't this stupid enough?" Concubine Shu did not hide it.

"Why do you do this?" Wei Ning'er was a little confused.

"Your Majesty, the only people in this palace who can compete with the Queen head-on are you and Sister Yu Fei. I thought that I could never fight the Queen on my own, so I cooperated with Xin Bin. I just wanted to frustrate the Queen. After all,

Concubine Yu is on the same page as you, if something happens to her, you will not ignore it." Concubine Shu said with some anxiety.

"You are going to deal with the queen, and Xinbin is going to deal with me, right?" Concubine Yu couldn't help but sneered: "Xinbin, when you were convicted and put under house arrest by the emperor, I didn't see the light of day for two years, and I raised you on my behalf.

The Eighth Princess, treat her as your own child. You will see the future. I will never stop you from visiting the Eighth Princess. This is just because I understand how much the mother-in-law loves her children. I will always be my daughter-in-law.

Qi

I was raised by the Queen at the beginning, but she threatened me with Yongqi. If I don't agree with her a little bit, Yongqi will be hurt. I hate all this, so I never make it difficult for you. I also thought about it.

The Eighth Princess returned it to you, but she couldn't bear to part with it. She regards me as her mother-in-law. My status is higher than yours, and with Yongqi, the Eighth Princess's future will be guaranteed in the future. But what can you give her?"

"Concubine..." Xin Concubine's eyes turned red and she was choked with sobs that she could not speak.

"You have never told me that you want the eighth princess back. I think you understand my painstaking efforts. What's more, you can go to Yonghe Palace to visit the eighth princess all the time. What's the difference between keeping her by your side?

Unexpectedly, I had good intentions but led a wolf into the house." Concubine Yu really regretted trusting Xin Pin. She should have understood that no one would be willing to raise their child for others.

"I'm sorry, empress!" Xin Bin burst into tears.

"At this point, we have to think about how to resolve this matter. The Emperor attaches great importance to this matter, and the Queen is also holding on to it. It's impossible to fool her." Wei Ning'er said solemnly.

"That being the case, please tell the emperor the truth. Since they have the guts to blame me, are they afraid of being known?" Concubine Yu sneered.

"Your Majesty." Concubine Shu and Concubine Xin both looked at Wei Ning'er.

"Concubine Shu, to be honest, I have no friendship with you, but I was entrusted by your sister to take care of you, so I will help you this time. As for Concubine Xin, I have already repaid you for saving your life.

You, but this time you and Concubine Shu are like grasshoppers on a vine, and I will save you together with you. No matter how stubborn you are in the future, no one can save you." Wei Ning'er said with a stern face.

"Thank you, empress." The two of them were overjoyed.

"What do you think, sister?" Wei Ning'er looked at Concubine Yu and said with a smile.

"Sister, I don't have that much magnanimity. They want my life." Concubine Yu felt very unhappy. No one could turn a blind eye to those who wanted her life, let alone help them get away with it.

"Sister, please spare them this time. I believe they will not make mistakes again. Sister, please calm down. My sister will do her best to help Yongqi sit on the throne of the crown prince." Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"Sister, I won't go around talking to my sister today. What my sister said really moved me, so I will obey my sister on this matter." Wei Ning'er's offer was indeed the most satisfactory to Concubine Yu, and it was within her expectations.

"Now let's take a closer look at how we can protect Concubine Shu and Xin Bin and avoid this disaster." Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and said.

"Now that the emperor knows something, the servants around Xinbin have also been sent to the Criminal Punishment Department. It will be difficult for her to escape unscathed." Concubine Yu said with a slight frown.

"Yes, Concubine Shu's place is fine for the time being." Wei Ning'er also felt that the matter was very difficult.

"Your Majesty, let me make arrangements for this matter. As long as your Majesty Yu cooperates, I think we can get through this difficulty." Concubine Shu took a deep breath and said.

"What do you mean?" Wei Ning'er asked in a low voice.

"The maid who identified Concubine Yu is from Concubine Chen's palace." Concubine Shu whispered.

"So what?" Concubine Yu frowned.

"The palace maid Wu'er who was captured in the Shenxing Department is her confidant." Concubine Shu pointed out.

"No, Wu'er can't." Xin Bin shouted suddenly.

"Do you want to plead guilty?" Concubine Shu asked.

"I..." Xin Bin couldn't help but shed tears.

"There is no need to sacrifice their lives. The pain of their flesh and skin is unavoidable. You just follow my arrangements." Wei Ning'er looked at them and said.

"Thank you, empress." Concubine Xin couldn't help but be happy when she heard this.

After coming out of Yanxi Palace, Concubine Shu was always worried and said to Luoying beside her: "I remember that Concubine Ling has not been to the Grand Scholar's Mansion these days, right?"

"Your Majesty, your concubine has not come to the Grand Master's Mansion, but Grand Master Fucha's wife has entered the palace today." Luoying said in a low voice.

"Have you left the palace?" Concubine Shu took a deep breath and asked.

"I don't know." Luoying shook her head gently.

"Send someone to inquire. If she has not left the palace, invite her to my palace." Concubine Shu ordered.

"Yes, empress." Luoying responded and ordered the little eunuch beside her to go.

In the Yanxi Palace, Ruoyan walked out from behind the screen behind Wei Ning'er and said with tears in his eyes: "Ning'er, thank you!"

"Between you and me, sisters, what are you talking about?" Wei Ning'er comforted her softly.

"Ning'er, Fu Heng once said that you wanted to support Brother Eleven, but now in order to help me save Ruolin, you..."

"Ruoyan, I'm just saying casually, the fifth elder brother is indeed the most outstanding." Wei Ning'er interrupted her.

"Can you talk about such a big thing casually? Even if you say it casually, Fu Heng and I will take it seriously." Ruoyan said softly.

"Let's just follow what we said today!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll tell Fu Heng when I get home." Ruoyan knew that Wei Ning'er made such a decision because of her.

"Well, tell Fu Heng, don't act rashly to avoid being caught by someone with intentions." Wei Ning'er warned.

"Fu Heng handles things the most safely, don't worry!" Ruoyan said with a smile.

"Of course I'm relieved." Wei Ning'er nodded gently.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has arrived!" Qingyan entered the palace and announced.

"Ning'er, I'm leaving the palace first." Ruoyan stood up and said with a smile.

"Okay, Qingyan, send your wife out of the palace." Wei Ning'er said to Qingyan.

"Yes, please, ma'am." Qingyan said with a slight smile.

As soon as Ruoyan left the Yanxi Palace, Dongxue, who was beside Concubine Shu, stepped forward and said, "Madam, our mother-in-law invites you to go to Chuxiu Palace for a chat."

"Lead the way." Ruoyan seemed to expect that Concubine Shu would come looking for her, and nodded gently.

When they arrived at Chuxiu Palace, Ruoyan looked at Concubine Shu who was sitting on the throne and stepped forward to salute.

"Sister, there's no need to be polite, please sit down quickly." Concubine Shu came down and helped Ruoyan up.

"I wonder what you mean by calling me here?" Ruoyan asked with a smile, his words full of alienation.

"Sister, we sisters haven't talked together for more than ten years." Concubine Shu smiled.

"The empress and the concubine are one in the sky and the other on the ground. I don't dare to climb high. If there is nothing wrong with the empress, I will leave." Ruoyan said expressionlessly.

"Sister, I know that I can't let go of what happened back then. My sister blames my sister, and my sister also blames herself. But those things have passed for many years, can't I forgive my sister? She has been going to the palace all these years.

I want to pay my respects to Concubine Ling. My sister really envies her and misses her too!" Concubine Shu choked up.

"Ruolin, do you miss me or use me?" Ruoyan sneered.

"Why did sister say this?" Concubine Shu said with shock on her face.

"Yes or no? You and I know well. Ruolin, if you want to seek revenge from the queen, go alone and don't involve your mother and family. I can ask the imperial concubine to save you once, but there will be no next time. Now,
Chapter completed!
