Hearing Shen Ruhui's interruption, Ye Wange frowned with displeasure on her face, but she did not interrupt and just looked at Nangong Ao quietly.

Shen Ruhui spoke up to protect the slave, but Nangong Ao turned a deaf ear. He looked at Qiu Xiang with a pair of ruthless eyes and said, "This bold slave actually dares to murder Concubine Hui and frame it for the Queen."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am not a slave. I have never done anything like this." Qiuxiang was so frightened that she panicked and defended herself. She kept begging for mercy.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shen Ruhui rolled over from the bed. The exposed section of her neck was still covered with red spots caused by poisoning. She got off the bed and walked to Nangong Ao and said softly, "Your Majesty "Don't be angry. I am safe and sound. The imperial doctor also said that no poison was found in the deer antler porridge, so it is not necessarily the deer antler that caused the trouble." Shen Ruhui tried to change the situation.

Ye Wange saw that Shen Ruhui wanted to protect Qiuxiang. She gave Shen Ruhui a cold look and said, "Sister Hui, these slaves don't care whether she did it intentionally or not. After all, she almost killed her sister. So, They must not be spared lightly for serious mistakes. They can be spared the death penalty, but they cannot escape the punishment of living."

Shen Ruhui looked at Ye Wange who was holding on to Qiuxiang and wanted to punish Qiuxiang. Anger flickered in her eyes. Ye Wange looked at Shen Ruhui's eyes that wanted to eat her and said without giving in. , "It was not her poison, but her dereliction of duty that caused Sister Hui to suffer such a crime, so she cannot escape the blame.

Also, who lied and said that Sister Hui ate poison from deer antler, and spread such rumors before knowing the facts? Isn’t this inciting trouble? "

Every word Ye Wange said was reasonable. Even if Nangong Ao wanted to turn to Shen Ruhui and let Shen Ruhui favor this slave, he couldn't.

Qiuxiang, who was kneeling on the ground, heard that Ye Wange was determined to punish her, and she gritted her teeth with hatred, wishing to skin Ye Wange and cut her bones.

Qiuxiang had cold sweat on her forehead, and her hands that were shrunk nervously into her sleeves were trembling, worrying that her head on her neck was not safe.

Shen Ruhui looked at Nangong Ao, who looked unhappy, and caught a glimpse of Ye Wange, who had evil thoughts. She could only call out in a begging tone, "Your Majesty!"

Nangong Ao listened to Shen Ruhui calling like an oriole, he was upset, playing such a little trick under his nose, where did she put him as the emperor?

"Come here, drag this **** down and hit twenty big boards, and see if she dares to do it again in the future.

Neglect of duty." Nangong Ao thought for a moment and then said.

As soon as Nangong Ao finished speaking, Qiuxiang was dragged out, and then there was the sound of a board hitting human flesh and a shrill scream coming from outside the door.

The slave kneeling on the ground was so frightened that sweat broke out on his forehead. Shen Ruhui gritted her teeth and gasped as she listened to the cry. Ye Wange stood there with a proud look on his face.

Listening to this miserable scream, Ye Wange felt better and better the more she listened to it. Qiuxiang, a slave, poisoned her in the last life, and she did it again in this life. This time, if Qiuxiang's life could not be spared, she would also let Qiuxiang shed her skin. Skin off.

"Listen carefully, whoever dares to neglect their duties will never have the consequences as simple as today." Nangong Ao said aggressively. After speaking, he closed his eyes in disappointment, waved his hands and said, "Everyone, please step aside!"

As soon as Nangong Ao's voice fell, the slaves immediately fled like birds and beasts, as if they were deeply afraid that the storm would affect them.

There were only three people left in the house, Nangong Ao, Ye Wange and Shen Ruhui. Nangong Ao looked serious. He sighed deeply and looked up at the roof. Shen Ruhui felt a little panicked and did not dare to speak. She stood there and looked at Nangong Ao cautiously. Ye Wange stood there proudly and looked at Shen Ruhui, with a pair of black eyes filled with mockery.

Ye Wange said for a moment, "Your Majesty, Sister Hui said she was poisoned after eating deer antler. Do you want to clean up my concubine too, so that Sister Hui can feel at ease?"

Hearing Ye Wange's unwillingness to give up, Shen Ruhui's expression became unhappy. Before Nangong Ao could speak, she said, "Queen, don't worry, it's just a misunderstanding."

When Ye Wange heard Shen Ruhui's excuse, she sneered in her heart, "It's a small matter to misunderstand me, but it's a big deal to harm Sister Hui. The Emperor will feel sorry for her." Ye Wange had a resentful tone.

After hearing this, Nangong Ao frowned and looked at Ye Wange and said, "The queen is frightened. Come back with me to rest!"

"Okay!" Ye Wange accepted the offer and responded softly, then gave Shen Ruhui a proud look.

Hearing Nangong Ao say he was leaving, Shen Ruhui's black eyes immediately filled with tears and she looked at Nangong Ao sadly.

Shen Ruhui did not dare to say anything to persuade her to stay. She could see Nangong Ao's displeasure and was afraid that she would anger Nangong Ao if she could not persuade him to stay.

Nangong Ao caught a glimpse of the tears flashing in Shen Ruhui's eyes. The floating light was like a feather that tickled his heart.

Shen Ruhui Qian should never do such a little thing behind his back. What he hates most is the women in the harem competing for favor. When he was young, he saw how those concubines competed with his mother for favor. The methods of fighting between women were extremely dirty. .

He was very clear about the methods of fighting for favor in the harem. Those who were favored relied on their favor to murder the royal heirs, and those who were not favored tried every means to please the emperor, including using love potions and creating chance encounters to attract the emperor's attention.

Nangong Ao hated these little tricks, and he didn't like the women in the harem fighting fiercely for favor, so this little trick played by Shen Ruhui made him very unhappy.

"It's nothing serious. You should rest first!" Nangong Ao was in a very bad mood and had no intention of staying to comfort the sad Shen Ruhui, so he said coldly to Shen Ruhui and left.

Ye Wange followed Nangong Ao, glanced at Shen Ruhui with joy, and followed Nangong Ao. The contemptuous look in his eyes made Shen Ruhui, who was in sadness, so angry that she burst into tears. He fell down, but no one felt pity for him.

After leaving Yongshou Palace, Ye Wange smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are so wise!"

When Nangong Ao heard Ye Wange's words of praise, the haze in his heart gradually dissipated. He turned around and saw Ye Wange smiling brightly and charmingly. He was once again fascinated by Ye Wange's smile.

Nangong Ao's pair of dark and deep eyes were burning with red flames as he looked at Ye Wange. Ye Wange didn't understand why Nangong Ao looked at her with such a terrifying expression. The touching smile on her face immediately froze.

Nangong Ao, who noticed that he had lost his composure, came back to his senses. He coughed to cover up his loss of composure, and then said, "Where is the wisdom?"

"I know in my heart that I was wronged." Ye Wange said with a smile, and there was a hint of praise in his words.

Nangong Ao's brows relaxed after hearing this, and his mood immediately improved, thinking that the matter just now was handled so satisfactorily, all thanks to the clever Ye Wange.

Back at Funing Palace, Nangong Ao's first words to Shen Ruhui were, "Queen, you have been wronged."

Ye Wange shook her head after hearing this, "As long as the emperor can understand my loyalty, I will not feel aggrieved."

Nangong Ao apologized to Ye Wange for Shen Ruhui's poisoning, which made Ye Wange realize that it was rare for this arrogant king to have a conscience to find out.

After hearing Ye Wange's words, Nangong Ao understood what she was thinking, and she expressed dissatisfaction with his initial distrust.

It's not that he didn't believe Ye Wange, it was just that when he heard that Shen Ruhui was poisoned, he panicked. He only heard the servants shouting that he was poisoned after eating deer antlers. He didn't think about it at all until Ye Wange did that. After some clarification, he realized that someone was deliberately pointing the contradiction at Ye Wange.

Nangong Ao didn't want to mention what happened. He looked at Ye Wange and asked, "Why did the queen summon you?"

Hearing Nangong Ao mention the Empress Dowager, Ye Wange's anger swelled up like a balloon. The Empress Dowager scolded her as a hen that couldn't lay eggs. She couldn't complain to Nangong Ao, so she could only say perfunctorily, "It's nothing special. Just asking me if anything happy happened in the palace."

Hearing the word "happy event", Nangong Ao understood what the empress dowager was talking about. Regarding the matter of Long Si, the empress went to greet her every day, and the empress dowager would ask her questions. Today, she was summoned urgently. It seemed that the empress dowager's patience with waiting was gone.

When it comes to the matter of Long Si, Nangong Ao is also worried. He has been working hard every night but there is no harvest. The queen is not pregnant, not even the new concubines. This is really strange.

If these concubines don't get pregnant again, then he will really suspect that there is something wrong with him. Thinking that he has something wrong, he looks at a certain place in himself. He doesn't know what kind of problem could be caused by something that can be pregnant seven times a night.

The more Nangong Ao thought about it, the more depressed he became. It would be wrong to say that there was something wrong with him. Shen Ruhui had conceived a child, which proved that there was nothing wrong with him.

Filial piety comes first among all good deeds, and having no descendants is the greatest form of unfilial piety. Now that he has no children, this makes him, the king of a country, completely disgraceful.

Now Nangong Ao was only thinking about a dragon son, so he racked his brains for a long time, looked at Ye Wange and said, "Queen, why didn't God give me a dragon son?"

Ye Wange smiled secretly after hearing this and said to herself, you have done too many evil things, so God refused to give you a dragon son.

Naturally, I didn't have the guts to say it out loud if I thought that way, "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, this is something that cannot be rushed."

Nangong Ao frowned immediately after hearing Shu Zhang, telling him not to worry. Those Fanwang children were running all over the place. In a few years, they would be able to take swords to the battlefield. His dragon son didn't even have a shadow. What did he do? Can't you be in a hurry!

Anxious but helpless, Nangong Ao asked Ye Wange, "Queen, did you drink the fertility soup given by Concubine Hui?"

Upon hearing Nangong Ao's question, Ye Wange replied, "No."

Nangong Ao's frown deepened after hearing her answer. Ye Wange saw his displeasure and immediately said, "I didn't drink what Concubine Hui gave me. I have been drinking another kind of fertility soup."
