Chapter 228 Not Guilty
Jingqi and others all lowered their heads and dared not speak. After a while, the rough eunuch stood up and said in a trembling voice: "Report to my father-in-law, Aunt Bingruo and Xiao Yizi are not here, and there is Miss Qingyan!"
Ma Renyi naturally knew that Bingruo and Xiao Yizi were by Wei Ning'er at this time, so he shouted to his subordinates: "Go and find out the one named Qingyan for me!"
At this time, Qingyan was hiding under the table in the bedroom, swallowing the pills from the wooden box into her stomach.
In Japan, Qingyan and Wei Ning'er went to deliver papaya water to the queen. Later, something happened. After Bingruo arrived, she sneaked out and saw that something was wrong. Hou was outside the Bishui Yuntian. Later, Wei Ning'er was ordered by the emperor to be sent to the cold palace. Bingruo followed him at Wu Shu's order. Before leaving, he saw Qingyan and told her to go back to Zuixinyuan and secretly deal with the wooden box placed in the cabinet. Because Bingruo was in a hurry, Qingyan did not hear which cabinet it was, but did not dare to neglect it. She immediately ran back to Zuixinyuan and rummaged through the cabinet in the bedroom, but she did not dare to alarm the servants outside the bedroom.
When such a thing happened, Qingyan naturally knew that his master was plotted against him, and among the servants like Zuixinyuan, someone must have betrayed his master. Since Bingruo asked her to deal with the box, it was extremely important and must not fall into the hands of others. Therefore, she must not let anyone with intention notice it.
But she carefully searched all the cabinets, but she didn't see the rosewood box that Bingruo mentioned. She had no choice but to search the cabinet in the bedroom carefully again, and finally found the rosewood box in the mezzanine under the cabinet where the owner's clothes were installed.
She didn't understand why Bingruo asked her to deal with the box of pills, but she didn't hesitate at all and wanted to find a place to bury the pills or pour it into the lake. But she didn't find the opportunity to bury the pills in the crowded yard. Just as she was about to run out of Zuixinyuan, she saw Ma Renyi with people to the door of Zuixinyuan, and she hid in the bedroom in a hurry.
When the eunuchs came in, they rummaged through boxes and cabinets, but they never found her hidden under the table. After the eunuchs left, she had no choice but to swallow the pills desperately into her stomach. She even had a premonition that this thing is very important to the little master. If it is searched, it will definitely harm the little master. Even if it is poison, she will take it.
Until someone dragged it out from under the table, Qingyan struggled to break free and stuffed the last few pills in her hand into her mouth, but Ma Renyi slashed on the back of her neck and vomited it out.
"Pick up the pills for me!" Ma Renyi looked at Qingyan and sneered.
Qingyan's face turned pale in an instant, and she wanted to break free from the little eunuch, but her hand was twisted by the little eunuch. She felt cold sweat in pain.
Seeing Qingyan being taken away by Ma Renyi and others, Jingqi and the others were even more frightened, but they were not in chaos.
Jingqi took a step forward, and shouted to Cheng Liang, the eunuch who had just replied to Ma Renyi's words, "Cheng Liang, the little master is not bad to us. Why do you have to talk too much? Could it be that you betrayed the little master?"
Cheng Liang snorted coldly: "Eight of us were selected by Eunuch Wu from the Interior Office to serve the little master, but I was demoted to a slave by the little master because of a mistake. My great future was ruined. Now I want to find a good place to go, would I be wrong?"
When Jingqi heard this, she shouted sternly: "You rely on the favor of the little master, you acted as a mighty person in front of the slaves in the harem. The little master was angry but he was slightly punished. He never thought that you would hold a grudge, you, a dog who was scattered!"
Cheng Liang sneered, "My little master... I'm afraid she's almost dead now, so you can wait to go with her to bury her!"
"Damn it!" Jingqi said and wanted to take action, and everyone surrounded her.
"What are you going to do?" Cheng Liang was shocked.
"If you want to die, you will be beaten to death first!" Jingqi's eyes were full of fierceness.
The eunuch Liu Wei said, "It will be done to teach him a lesson. If it is really him and outsiders who are using bad things to deal with our little master, it will be useful to keep him!"
Everyone didn't dare to take ruthless action after hearing this.
When Ma Renyi took Qingyan back to the Changchun Immortal Hall, the empress dowager had already returned from Bishui Yuntian. Perhaps he had been busy all day and was tired, so he had already rested. Ma Renyi did not dare to disturb him, so he ordered the eunuchs to take Qingyan down and take good care of her.
When Hu Shijie was ordered to take Wei Ning'er back to the Old Summer Palace from the Forbidden City, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and it was almost dawn.
"Young Master, Good Luck!" When he learned that Wei Ning'er was back, Jingqi and others immediately stood up and all went to the hall to pay their respects to her.
"Get up." After struggling for so long, Wei Ning'er couldn't even open her eyes.
"Where is Qingyan?" Bingruo asked immediately when he saw Qingyan was not there.
"Auntie, Ma, who was beside the Empress Dowager, took Qingyan away last night!" Jingqi said with some anxiety.
"Search the palace?" Wei Ning'er was shocked when she heard this, and then got up and walked towards the bedroom.
"My master, don't be anxious. I have already ordered Qingyan to deal with the pill before leaving, but she was arrested. I don't know if she was discovered." Bingruo followed Wei Ning'er and said anxiously.
After hearing this, Wei Ning'er still walked quickly into the bedroom.
"The jade pendant given by my mother and the purple jade bracelet are all gone!" Wei Ning'er looked at the empty box and gritted her teeth.
"My little master, it must have been searched by Ma Renyi." Bingruo was also a little anxious.
"Bingruo, you are tired too, please rest!" Wei Ning'er stood up and smiled bitterly.
"Little Master!" Bingruo looked at her in surprise and thought to himself, now that it is at this critical moment, the little master is still going to rest.
"Only by cultivating enough spirit can we deal with everything, go!" Wei Ning'er said, and changed into her bedclothes and rested.
Perhaps she was very tired. Although she was anxious, Wei Ning'er still fell asleep deeply until Bingruo woke her up.
"When is it?" Wei Ning'er asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, it's already three o'clock in the morning. The Empress Dowager sent someone to teach the little master to the Changchun Immortal Hall!" Bingruo looked at Wei Ning'er worriedly and whispered.
Wei Ning'er was not in a hurry, so she asked Bingruo and Qingyan to wash her and dress up carefully. Then she sat on her shoulder and headed to the Changchun Immortal Hall.
Wei Ning'er was not surprised that all the concubines in the harem were there. Although she didn't know why the Empress Dowager wanted to be apart from her, she knew that she was afraid that it would be difficult for her to escape today. For the sake of her plan, she could only respond to changes in the same way and see what the Empress Dowager wanted.
"I wish you a blessing to the Empress Dowager, and I will be blessed!" Wei Ning'er bowed to ask for peace.
