After a while, the emperor walked out with the sad empress dowager. When the empress dowager saw Wei Ning'er, she pushed the emperor away, stepped forward and slapped Wei Ning'er, and shouted sternly: "You damn thing, why do you poison the mooncake? The Ai family's Qiu Mama is gone, and the Ai family wants you to pay your life!"

"My mom!" The emperor grabbed the queen mother and said anxiously: "The poison was not given by Concubine Ling. It's not too late for the empress to find out if the empress mom is done!"

"Emperor, if the Ai family had eaten the moon cake, the one who saw the King of Hell would be the Ai family." The empress dowager shouted in disbelief.

When the emperor heard this, he trembled all over: "My mom, I know that you are unhappy at this moment. If such a thing happened, I am also angry. Someone in the palace dared to poison his master's food. The crime is unforgivable. I will definitely find out." The emperor said this and said to Wei Ning'er: "Concubine Ling, you retreat first!"

Wei Ning'er knew that the empress dowager was angry at this time and it was irrational. She stayed and made the empress dowager disgusted and had to leave.

The emperor sent the empress dowager back to the bedroom and helped her lie on the couch. To be fair, the emperor had never seen the empress dowager so sad. Even if the emperor died at that time, he was not very sad. Instead, he was extremely calm and arranged many things to help him ascend the throne.

But at this moment, the emperor felt the grief of the empress dowager. This pain was like when he lost the queen, heart-wrenching.

"My mom, you are mourning." The emperor held the empress dowager's hand and persuaded softly.

The Empress Dowager looked sad: "Emperor, Qiu Chan has been serving Ai's house for almost fifty years, and now she is going like this. The Ai family feels uncomfortable. When she was only a few years old, she entered the mansion and served Ai's house. When Ai's house first entered Prince Yong's house, she also followed Ai's house. If she hadn't had some martial arts and familiar with pharmacology, the Ai family would have been killed in the palace. If she hadn't sacrificed her life to protect her many times, the Ai family would not have today. Maybe she would not have given you safely at that time. The emperor... In the heart of Ai's family, she was like the sisters of Ai's family, not... even more close than them."

"Emperor Mother!" The emperor felt bad, and comforted the empress dowager for a long time. It was not until the empress dowager was tired and fell asleep that he went outside the hall and said to Wu Shu: "Transfer my will and send all the servants who serve Concubine Ling to the Shenxingsi for strict interrogation, and there is also a slave who serves the empress dowager today!"

"Emperor, that Aunt Lu Mo?" Wu Shulai looked at the emperor with some embarrassment.

"That's all!" The emperor waved his hand gently.

"Yes!" Wu Shulai immediately received the order.

Such a big event happened tonight, and Wei Ning'er naturally couldn't sleep. After returning to Yanxi Palace, she sat quietly on the chair until Hu Shijie came to pass the imperial edict.

"The emperor said, I want to take all the servants around me for interrogation?" Wei Ning'er took a breath when she heard this. If this was the case, even if she didn't do this, she wouldn't be able to get out of here.

There are so many servants in the Yanxi Palace, she cannot guarantee that they are all loyal to her. If there is a traitor here, she will naturally be in danger. Moreover, under severe punishment, there will inevitably be people who can't stand the blame and make a move.

Wei Ning'er didn't believe that the imperial concubine would not go to the Shenxingsi to make trouble.

"Yes, if the murderer is not found now, the Empress Dowager cannot explain it. It is difficult for you to protect yourself. The Emperor is trying to find the murderer and give you a cleansing innocence!" Hu Shijie said anxiously.

"If I find the murderer from me, will I still be innocent?" Wei Ning'er couldn't help but sneer.

It is true that the emperor favored her, but... Once the matter was involved with the Empress Dowager, she would always be the one who was abandoned. After all, the emperor lived in the Cining Palace. The empress dowager of the current dynasty was probably many times more important than everyone in the harem.

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

"Don't worry, I will take someone to Shenxingsi personally. I will watch from the side during the interrogation. If a slave says something he shouldn't say, I will deal with it!" Hu Shijie's face was full of solemnity.

"I'm sorry, Brother Wenhao!" Wei Ning'er nodded slightly, then let him adapt and call all her servants from that time in.

Wei Ning'er looked at the servants and felt a little sour in her heart. She took a deep breath and said, "I guess you all know that someone framed me and poisoned me in the mooncake. The Madam Qiu next to the Empress Dowager was poisoned and died. Now you are going to be sent to Shenxingsi for interrogation. I ask myself that I am honest and never do such despicable things. This poison is not my palace, nor is it you. After going to Shenxingsi, what should I do? I believe you know very well. This palace and you prosper and lose both. If something happens to me, you will not be able to survive alone. Poisoning the Empress Dowager is a serious crime to kill the nine clans. You have been in the palace for a long time. Of course, you are aware of it. You naturally know it clearly, and there is no need for me to say more!"

"Yes, the queen, the slave and others are loyal to the queen, and they have no other intentions!" Everyone responded in unison.

"You all know where Shenxingsi is. I want to see you come back alive. Remember, you must be alive!" Wei Ning'er couldn't help crying when she said this.

"Empress, I will definitely come back to continue serving the empress. I will stay with the empress for the rest of my life!" Bingruo kowtowed, got up and went out.

"Take care!" Xiao Yizi, Qingyan and others also saluted and followed Bingruo.

"Brother Wenhao, please help me and try to keep them!" Wei Ning'er said sobbingly.

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

At this time, Lu Mo walked back and forth in the Cining Palace hall, hoping to wake up the sleeping empress dowager.

"Lu Mo..." At this moment, the Empress Dowager woke up slowly.

"Empress, you are awake. The emperor issued an order to investigate the matter thoroughly. All the slaves who served you at night were taken away except for the servants. Empress, others dare not say it, but the jade hairpin and jade painting were trained by me. You have been serving you for ten years. I dare not do my best. I can't bear to see them being tortured!" Lu Mo said this and shed tears. She was not worried that the two sisters would give her her away, but she really couldn't bear to suffer.

"What?" The Empress Dowager was furious when she heard this: "Send someone to bring them back to the Ai family. They have been serving the Ai family for many years. If they want to poison, do they still have to wait until today?"

"Yes, Empress!" Lu Mo responded and asked Ma Renyi to go to Shenxingsi to bring the people back.

The next morning, the Empress Dowager went to the Yangxin Temple early, and after the emperor came to court, she went up to meet him.
