You Jing understood it no matter how stupid she was, she looked at Wen Wan'er in astonishment, and then anger flashed in her eyes.

"Wen Wan'er, you have such a vicious mind! I trust you so much, yet you, you actually want to harm me!"

"Tch!" Wen Wan'er gave her a contemptuous look, without any trace of her previous gentleness, and said sarcastically, "What did I do to you? Why do I want to do it to a fool like you? I'm just using you."

"You!" You Jing blushed with anger, but when she wanted to get up, she was pushed down by Madam Zheng, tied the rope, and struggled in embarrassment.

Xiao Huan frowned, and called Yi Xing, the guard outside, to come in, "Shut him up in the firewood room first, and guard him strictly. He will be escorted into the palace tomorrow, and the queen mother will make the decision."

"Yes!"

"My lord! I, I didn't know this would happen! My lord..."

You Jing yelled in horror, a veil was stuffed in her mouth in a blink of an eye, and Yi Xing kicked and lifted her up. Wen Wan'er seemed to give up struggling and was dragged down silently.

Li Ru'an asked Xuegu to take Madam Zheng to the side hall to rest, and the room became quiet. She looked at Xiao Huan with cold, grievous eyes, and couldn't help pinching that handsome face.

"Look, women's minds and tricks are far more ruthless than you think. Who told you to be so handsome? You just want to please women."

Xiao Huanyuan followed the way of the aphrodisiac, forced to use his true pressure to suppress it, coupled with the irritated heart attack, he felt uncomfortable all over, seeing her still talking sarcasticly, as if he didn't care about others coveting her husband, he couldn't get angry, He picked her up with a black face and went into the room, determined to show off his might!

The next day, in Yongfu Palace, the Empress Dowager recovered a lot. After listening to her son's words, she gasped in disbelief, looked at the two kneeling on the ground in shock, and slapped the table hard!
"You are so brave!"

Li Ru'an, who was dozing off next to Xiao Huan, was awakened, covered her mouth and yawned, thanks to the powerful secret medicine of Second Sister You, she fell asleep for a while at dawn, and entered the palace early, which made her body ache.

"The queen mother, Xin Liu, Mrs. Zhao, and the guards who neglected their duty have all been detained by my son, waiting for your punishment."

"If this matter gets out, it will be bad for you and the royal family, so let's settle it privately without leaving any traces."

For the first time, the queen mother showed the majesty of a superior in front of her son and daughter-in-law, with a cold expression and decisive killing.

The meaning of this is obvious, Li Ru'an raised an eyebrow, the women in the harem are not easy, let alone the queen mother who has been in the palace for almost 50 years.

"Great aunt!" You Jing cried out in horror, "I didn't do it on purpose! I didn't know that Wen Wan'er would poison you, and she was the one who encouraged me to steal the palace. For the You family's sake, don't kill me..."

The Empress Dowager threw the teacup in front of her, and the delicate porcelain cup shattered crisply. She shouted angrily, "It's not that Aijia never gave you a chance! You don't know how to repent, and you even cheated Aijia, how dare you mention it?" Family, if you implicate the You family for several generations, you will die!"

You Jing shook her head in fright, cried bitterly, and kowtowed repeatedly, "I know I was wrong, Tai Aunt, I don't dare anymore, I beg Tai Aunt..."

"Queen mother, calm down, your body is just better, don't get angry." Seeing the queen mother trembling with anger, Li Ru'an frowned, massaged the Neiguan acupoint for her, and gave Xiao Huan a wink.

"Mother Zheng, take her down, and immediately send someone to escort her back to Xishu, and tell You's family truthfully that she will not be allowed to enter the capital without special summons!" Xiao Huan said with a sullen face.

"My lord, don't!" You Jing turned pale in panic. If she went back to Xishu in embarrassment again, it would be difficult for anyone to marry her, let alone marrying a noble family. Moreover, according to her grandfather's strict temperament, she might be sent to be a sister-in-law!
"Yes, my lord." Madam Zheng led the palace servants to bring down You Jing who was struggling and crying.

"Wen Wan'er poisoned the current Empress Dowager, her heart is to be punished, and she should be sentenced to death..."

"Huan'er, spare her life and send her to Cangshan Temple." The queen mother supported her aching head, closed her eyes and interrupted her son's words in a low voice, looking tired and sad.

The palace servants stepped forward and dragged Wen Wan'er up, and the person who had been bowing her head in silence suddenly struggled.

"Your Majesty! I have served you wholeheartedly for so many years, have you forgotten? You have always known Wan'er's thoughts on the prince, and you have acquiesced! Why are you so cruel to me!"

The Queen Mother opened her eyes, looking at the person who grew up beside her in disappointment, but Li Ru'an stopped her when she was about to speak.

"What is acquiescence? There are so many young ladies in the capital who admire the prince, if the mother and queen do not sternly refuse, is it considered acquiescence?"

Wen Wan'er's hands and feet were already tied with ropes, and she looked at Li Ru'an madly, without reason, "What are you proud of? I have spent more days with the prince than you!"

Stopping Xiao Huan who was about to speak, Li Ru'an smiled and said, "Yes, but he still didn't like you. It can be seen that feelings don't come first and then come first. Wen Wan'er, do you think you are wronged? Do you think the Queen Mother has treated you badly?"

"Isn't it? I have worked hard and served you wholeheartedly for so many years. No one in the palace knows that I will be the prince's man in the future. You went to the north for six years, and I waited for you for six years. Now that you come back, you don't even talk You didn't even tell me a word, why did you break your promise when you gave me hope? Am I really just a slave?"

Li Ru'an suddenly laughed lowly, with a mocking tone, "Don't you? You grew up in the palace, but your identity is a palace maid. It is your job to serve the master wholeheartedly. It is not an excuse for you to blackmail favors. You are There is a salary every month, not for nothing."

"You are respected and valued in the palace and in the Wen family. What is the reason? Because you are the queen mother's personal maid, and they respect this name. Dare you say that you have not gained many benefits because of this name?" Is it? Don't say anything else, just compare with the other concubines in your family. Your life is a thousand times better than theirs, right? The heart is not enough, and the master treats you leniently, but it has become a sin of pampering you. Made you completely forget your duty?"

"Besides, my lord, love is about pleasing each other. You claim to have grown up with your lord and know him better than anyone else. It's rare that you don't even know his habits? I just opened my mouth, and the queen mother also understood, but in order to take into account your feelings, she had no choice but to keep it silent, hoping that you can see it clearly and understand it yourself."

With tears in her eyes, the queen mother nodded silently while holding her daughter-in-law's hand. Li Ru'an spoke dryly, and looked at Wen Wan'er who had stopped struggling long ago, with a compassionate expression.

"Wen Wan'er, in fact, you understand everything yourself, but you just refuse to face the facts, so you try your best to find someone to blame, imagine yourself as a victim, and be mistaken by your cleverness, and your obsession is too deep, so you will get into the horns. Going into a dead end and driving yourself into what you are today."

Wen Wan'er was in a daze, with tears streaming down her face. Why didn't she know the prince's indifferent attitude and the empress's cryptic suggestion, but she was not reconciled. If the prince never married, she would stay with him forever, as before. She recognized that politeness, but after Bei Zheng came back, everything changed. The prince had a beloved sweetheart, and the tender eyes and lingering love she dreamed of but couldn't dream of were all given to another woman, that kind of jealousy and hatred The feeling reached its peak, devouring all her sanity!
She stared intently at the only man she had ever loved, with deep nostalgia in her eyes, as if saying goodbye to the past, she knelt up and kowtowed deeply to the Queen Mother.

"Your Majesty, Wan'er has let down your love. Wan'er is sorry for you. From now on, I only wish your Majesty to be safe and happy."

Looking at the back of her walking out with the palace servants, the queen mother still couldn't help crying, "Aijia watched her grow up, she is not a person with vicious thoughts, she is just blinded by love and hatred..."

----

The two walked along the palace wall, Li Ru'an turned to look at Xiao Huan who was hesitant to speak.

"What do you want to say?"

Xiao Huan sighed, "Ru'an, after meeting you, even if we get married, I still worry about gains and losses. You are too strong and free and easy. If you don't follow your heart, secular marriage can't trap you. Am I too greedy..."

"Do you think I don't have you in my heart?" Li Ru'an raised his eyebrows when he saw that he was silent.

"Well... how should I put it, I didn't know your identity when I first met, because you were so handsome, I had the idea of ​​abducting you away."

Xiao Huan stopped, his eyes widened in shock.

Li Ru'an dragged him to continue walking, with a smile on his lips, "You know, when I returned to Beijing, I wanted to divorce Prince Huan, settle down with Aren, and leave here with the nanny and the others, but when I found out that you were Prince Huan, I was very happy." I'm happy, I really regarded you as a gentleman friend at the time, and I thought it would be nice to get married, at most, we can't make it through in the future and we will part ways."

Xiao Huan's face tightened, and he exerted force in his hands unconsciously.

"Pain..." Li Ru'an moved his fingers and raised a smile, "But, Xiao Jizhi, we have gone through so many life-and-death situations, we trust and respect each other, and we can understand each other's thoughts with just one look. To this day, you haven't seen it yet. Come out, I have you in my heart?"

"But..." Xiao Huan was ashamed to open his mouth, he was almost raped by that, but he didn't see Ru An's jealous expression.

"Haha!" Li Ru'an burst out laughing in seconds, "You still don't understand why I didn't show jealousy and anger, because I believe in you, extremely believe that you will not betray me, even if you are drugged and have a knife on your neck, You won't betray me either."

Xiao Huan suddenly smiled, and the heaviness and thoughts were swept away.

"exactly!"
