In the Empress Dowager's Palace, the night was already deep, but the Empress Dowager did not feel sleepy at all.

The few people brought by Fu Yao were still standing outside the hall like killing gods. She didn't even need to look to feel the eyes of these people who seemed to be killing people.

When Fu Yao was a fool, he acted insanely, and could directly make trouble in the court just because he didn't like a woman entering the palace.

Now she is not as stupid as before, but she is really unsure.

If Li Shi really died, would Fu Yao be able to commit murder?

She even had a faint bias in her heart that Fu Yao could do it.

The more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel.

The queen mother got up and paced around the shopkeeper, did she look at the sky outside.

After a while, the Empress Dowager walked to the door, and as soon as she opened the door, the two guards outside the door immediately turned their heads and looked at her covetously.

The Queen Mother paused and asked blankly, "What time is it?"

"In half an hour, it's time to go to court early." One of the guards said: "But these have nothing to do with the empress dowager, please rest at ease, the empress dowager."

"..."

The queen mother glanced at the long swords worn by the two guards, which shone coldly in the moonlight.

Her life is still in their hands, how could she sleep?

"I want to see Fu Yao."

As soon as the Queen Mother opened her mouth, the guard said, "Queen Mother, the Queen Mother told me before she left that she doesn't want to see you."

The queen mother frowned and looked at the guards, and suddenly sneered: "Don't tell me Fu Yao doesn't want the emperor to live?"

The guard said coldly: "I'm just waiting for the empress's orders, and I don't care about other things. If the empress dowager wants to see the empress, she can teach the maids in your palace to pass the message."

"Of course, if they can get out!"

The queen mother's face darkened, her cold eyes swept over the two guards, she turned and closed the door.

Seeing the door close in front of him, another guard came over and whispered, "Should we inform?"

The other glanced at the door and shook his head: "There is no movement at this time, which means that nothing serious happened. We just stay here and guard, even if it doesn't end with the old woman's life, we can keep her from causing trouble. ,or……"

The guard glanced into the night.

"What other flying bird can you catch?"

The other understood immediately.

The two stood guard in front of the Empress Dowager's Hall, not only paying attention to the movement inside, but also paying attention to the surroundings all the time.

The Empress Dowager returned to the hall, and waited restlessly until the sun passed the horizon the next day, and the sunlight gradually illuminated the dark inner hall.

The Empress Dowager proceeded suddenly, seeing the glaring sunlight outside, she was in a daze for a while, and subconsciously moved again.

One night, nothing happened.

Could it be that Li Wei really made it through?

Can't tell if I'm relieved or disappointed.

The queen mother went to the door again and opened the door. The two guards who were guarding the door had already gone to the courtyard, and the two maidservants were standing in front of the door with hot water, wanting to come in to wash her.

The Empress Dowager quickly collected her emotions, and let the palace maid in with a calm expression.

Before entering the room, the queen mother took another look at the guards who were still guarding outside.

They haven't left yet, either because the emperor is not completely out of danger, or they suspect that she temporarily ordered people to do this, and they want to catch someone from her.

The Queen Mother sneered in her heart.

If it was Li Wei who was poisoned, then she might still feel guilty.

But Wuyue would not be so stupid, picking this time to come to her.Knowing that there are these few people guarding it, it is impossible to get in.

Moreover, it is true that Li Wei did not order Wuyue to do it this time.

Since they love to guard, let them guard.

……

An Chengyue went out of the palace just after dawn.

Fu Yao took Nanny Zhang to the royal palace.

On the way, Grandma Zhang whispered: "My Lady, only Wang Guiren's Gregorian Calendar Palace and Concubine Lu De's Zhanghua Palace are blocked in the palace. It was okay last night, but people have already started talking about it early this morning."

"What are you talking about?"

Fu Yao didn't rest much last night. She sat on the apron, and when she was talking, she had to look down at Nanny Zhang who was following her.

Nanny Zhang raised her head slightly.

"It's nothing more than some discussion outside the situation. I just think that if this matter cannot be resolved as soon as possible, the discussion in the palace will become a big one, which may be detrimental to the empress's reputation. Someone has already mentioned the matter of the paddock."

"..."

Fu Yao closed her eyes and rubbed her temples, but said nothing.

Nanny Zhang continued: "I've already dealt with those two people who talked nonsense, but once things like rumors snowball, they will become troublesome."

Fu Yao was silent for a while, and watched as Bu pushed through the palace gates, and finally entered the nobleman's palace directly.

There were people guarding both inside and outside the palace, and the servants in the palace were very cramped before moving around. When they saw Fu Yao rushing in, everyone knelt down and saluted.

Fu Yao signaled to stop, and she asked Nanny Zhang to wait outside, and entered the inner hall by herself.

Wang Guiren didn't make up, so he put on his favorite beautiful clothes on weekdays. He was dressed in Su Jin's clothes, and sat there with his hair loose in a daze.

"My lord."

Fu Yao called out.

Wang Guiren raised her head belatedly, and the moment she saw Fu Yao, her eyes moved stiffly.

"Queen!"

Wang Guiren suddenly came to his senses, rushed over and grabbed Fu Yao's arm before kneeling on the ground, Fu Yao quickly stopped her.

"If you have something to say, say it well."

Hearing these words, Wang Guiren, who was calm just now, suddenly had red eyes.

"Empress, I really didn't do anything. You know, I can't even go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. I like to fiddle with my things in the palace. I have no... no unrealistic fantasies about the emperor. , Madam, I really didn't do it! I don't know why, I really don't know!"

The more Wang Guiren spoke, the more desperate he became: "I really don't know why. I brought the maid next to me into the palace from home. I don't know why she said that I asked her to do this."

"I want to say that I didn't do this, but I can't get out..."

Wang Guiren's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally looked up at Fu Yao with full expectation, and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, do you trust me?"

"This matter is not something that I can decide whether I believe you or not. Those things are harmful to the emperor's body, and now all the evidence points to you. Even if I say I believe you, there is no way to change these evidences."

As soon as these words came out, the last spark in Wang Guiren's eyes was completely extinguished. She sat down on the ground dejectedly, and murmured: "Then I'm... dead. I don't fight for anything, I don't grab anything, I just love you." My money, or do I have to die?"
