About an hour later, the emperor finally confirmed that both bodies were not Wei Ning'er. At this time, he also remembered that since he returned to the palace, he had no sign of E Ning and Hu Shijie. After sending people to search, he realized that since the fire in Yanxi Palace, the people in the Yangxin Palace had never seen E Ning and Hu Shijie again.

At this time, it had been more than half a month since the Yanxi Palace was burned down, and almost no clues were found. But unexpectedly, the emperor was sure that both bodies were not Concubine Ling, so he sent someone to search the palace.

"Emperor, how do you make sure that the person who died was not Concubine Ling?" The empress dowager felt that the emperor was just comforting herself.

"My mom, I looked at Ning'er before leaving. She was six months pregnant at that time, and now she is more than seven months old. However, none of the two corpses are pregnant. From this, I concluded that someone wanted to harm Ning'er and deliberately set fire. Both corpses were impersonated. I want to know where Ning'er is? Can she be safe?" When the emperor said this, he felt a heart-wrenching pain spread from his heart to his limbs and bones.

As the Lord of the Nine Five, he could not protect his beloved and their children, and he caused them to suffer such sins.

"This... she has a child!" The Empress Dowager was also stunned, and then said: "It's true that the corpse is not Concubine Ling, will she leave the palace?"

"Leave the palace?" The emperor was shocked when he heard this: "Even if she left the palace, she was just to save her life. Who... who forced her to do this? I sent E Ning, Hu Shijie and others to protect her. Now there is no one in them. Something must have happened!" The emperor's eyes were bloody when he said this.

"Emperor, calm down first!" The empress dowager felt an ominous premonition in her heart. She had never seen such a irritable emperor before, and her intuition told her that there would be bloody storms in the palace.

"I can't calm down. My mom, don't ask about this matter!" After the emperor said that, he walked quickly outside the Yanxi Palace.

"Emperor!" The Empress Dowager looked at the emperor's back as he was leaving in disbelief, feeling the darkness in front of her eyes and almost fainted.

"Empress!" Lu Mo held her.

"The emperor has never spoken to the Ai family like this, never like this!" The empress dowager couldn't help but feel an unprecedented sadness in her heart.

"Empress, the emperor is too worried. Besides, Empress Ling was confined by the emperor's order, but she had an accident. The emperor naturally could not let go. Moreover, when she was pregnant, the child would be about to give birth in two months. If Empress Ling had a good life, the emperor would not only lose her, but also have a child who had never been masked. The pain in his heart can be imagined!" Lu Mo said softly.

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she felt ache: "If I had known this, the Ai family would not have insisted on asking the emperor to punish Concubine Ling!"

"Empress, don't blame yourself. The plan for the present is to find out the intention of murdering Concubine Ling and the emperor's heirs, and find the whereabouts of Concubine Ling. Those people actually took advantage of the fact that their masters were not in the palace and burned the Yanxi Palace. It was a very unforgivable thing!" Lu Mo said at the right time.

When the empress dowager heard this, her face became more and more gloomy and said to Lu Mo: "Set up to Yikun Palace!"

"Yes, Empress!" A hint of undetectable smile flashed in Lu Mo's eyes.

In Yikun Palace, the imperial concubine was walking back and forth in the bedroom anxiously. Zi Yan walked in from outside and said respectfully: "Empress, Empress Dowager is here!"

When the imperial concubine heard this, she smiled on her face and then greeted Zi Yan.

"The Empress Dowager is blessed with all the blessings!" The Imperial Concubine said with a smile.

The Queen Mother, however, had a gloomy face and said to everyone around her: "You retreat!"

"Yes!" The slaves immediately retreated.

"Empress Dowager, what's wrong with Concubine Ling?" the imperial concubine asked in a low voice.

The Empress Dowager sat on the chair and looked at the imperial concubine coldly, without answering. After a while, she said in a deep voice: "Ai family asks you, do you honestly answer the Ai family? Did you send someone to kill Concubine Ling?"

The imperial concubine suddenly knelt down and said tremblingly: "Empress Dowager, I am wronged, I have never thought of killing anyone, not to mention that I have been serving you and the emperor for these days, and I have only returned to the capital today. Even if I want to harm her, it is impossible!"

When the Empress Dowager heard this, her face slightly improved: "It's not good. If you were the evil move, even if you were the niece of the Ai family, the Ai family would never spare you easily. Minruo, remember it for the Ai family. You can compete for favor in the palace and use any means, but... the Ai family will never allow anyone to murder the emperor's heir. If the Ai family knows about it, even you will be a death sentence!"

The imperial concubine knew that she could harm the concubines in the palace, but not the emperor's offspring. This was the bottom line of the empress dowager. She was indeed the empress dowager's niece, but... the prince and the princess were also the empress dowager's bloodline, which was many times more important than her.

However, she didn't understand why the Empress Dowager suddenly mentioned the matter of the royal heir, and couldn't help but tentatively: "Empress, is Concubine Ling pregnant?"

"Yes!" The Empress Dowager was in a mess at this time and didn't want to say much, so she left with Lu Mo and others.

The imperial concubine was shocked. No wonder the emperor said that Concubine Ling was not dead, so she issued an order to search the palace and sent people to search everywhere. It turned out that... she was pregnant, so the two corpses naturally could not deceive the emperor. Thinking of this, the imperial concubine whispered a few instructions in Zi Yan's ear.

"Don't worry, I'll do it now!" Zi Yan responded and left.

For several days, the palace had not been peaceful for a day. All slaves in each palace were sent to the Shenzheng Department for strict interrogation. Almost no one came out alive, which made all the slaves in the palace in danger.

On March 9, the emperor issued a secret order to take away several guards in the palace. Along with them, several geniuses guarding the palace gate were also captured. Since then, everyone has never seen them again.

On March 10, more than half of the guards in the palace were removed. The emperor scolded Prince He in the court, and blamed him for neglecting his duties while staying in the capital during the emperor's Western Tour and was extremely guilty. He was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy. Many ministers were scolded by the emperor for pleading for him.

Faced with the emperor's anger, the prince's mother, noble concubine, knelt outside the Palace of Gongxin. The mother and son knelt for a whole day and night. The emperor pardoned Prince He and ordered him to think about his mistakes behind closed doors.

On March 11, the emperor issued an order to rebuild the Yanxi Palace bedroom, and issued an order to order the concubine to rest after being seriously injured in the fire, and to relieve the concubine of Ling from the province in the morning and evening, and temporarily stay in Chengqian Palace for rest.

After hearing this, the concubines in the palace were so surprised that they couldn't stop talking, and then hurried to Chengqian Palace.
