"Queen—you—." Seeing that the queen really wanted to go out and kneel, the queen mother felt dizzy for a moment, and she couldn't stand up.

"Empress Dowager!" Concubine Xian immediately supported her.

Punish the queen, even if it is just to let the queen kneel outside, that is a big deal, the queen mother can't help but feel a little regretful, she just said that because she was in a hurry, originally the queen would give in and kneel down to plead guilty, so she has a step I just let it go, how could I expect the queen to be so stubborn this time.

"Master, please admit your mistake to the empress dowager, don't kneel down!" Chu Xia supported the empress, tears came out of her eyes.

"Empress Empress!" Wei Ning'er chased her out, grabbed the Empress and said urgently: "Empress, you must not kneel, what if... what should happen if there is something good or bad!" Wei Ning'er said so He glanced at the queen's belly.

But the queen shook her head, signaling that she didn't need to say more, then gently pushed away the hands of Wei Ning'er and Chu Xia, raised her skirt and knelt down.

"Your Majesty!" Chu Xia and Wei Ning'er exclaimed, and also knelt down.

At this time, the eunuch Wang Lu, who had been watching from a distance, saw the queen kneeling down, and immediately let go of his legs and ran to the Nanmu Palace where the emperor governed.

The empress has never been punished for many years in the central palace, not only has she not been punished, she has never been scolded, but this time she was punished by the empress dowager to kneel in the front yard of Songhezhai, it is really shocking.

Concubine Xian helped the Queen Mother to the yard, looked at the Queen and Wei Ning'er who were kneeling on the ground, the sinister smile on her face disappeared for a moment, and then looked at the Queen Mother with some trepidation, her words were full of anxiety: "The Queen Mother Empress, this time is just a misunderstanding, please let the empress empress and concubine Ling get up!"

The queen mother couldn't help but feel a little heavy in her heart. After all, she had never scolded the queen all these years, but this time she was... punished for such a trivial matter. .

"The empress dowager, the empress dowager and the concubine did it unintentionally, and they didn't intend to offend the empress, please forgive me!" Concubine Jia could not see that the empress dowager was in a bit of a dilemma at this time, and immediately knelt down.

"Please forgive me, Empress Dowager!" Concubine Shu also knelt down.

Seeing this, Concubine Yi had no choice but to intercede with them.

Concubine Xian's expression froze, and then she knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "The empress dowager, calm down, the empress dowager is the mother of the country, how can she be punished for such a trivial matter? The emperor can't explain that, and I ask the empress dowager to think twice."

When the queen heard the words, a stern look flashed in her eyes, and Wei Ning'er's face beside her also changed. Concubine Xian was not begging for mercy, she was simply adding fuel to the fire.

The Empress Dowager has stood at the pinnacle of power these years. Although she has never intervened in government affairs, nor interfered much in the affairs of the harem,... who in the world would dare to disobey her and disobey her orders? The front is also respectful.

As for Concubine Xian's words, it seemed that the queen mother was afraid of the queen and the emperor. When the queen mother heard it, the anger in her heart couldn't be restrained, and she immediately shouted: "Lu Mo, show it to the Ai family. It will take less than an hour." , don’t tell them to get up!”

Seeing the Queen Mother angrily returning to the main hall, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, she couldn't help sneering.

The Nanmu Hall is very close to here, the emperor is probably coming soon, otherwise she would not take the child in her stomach to take risks.

"Empress Empress!" Wei Ning'er held the Queen's hand, her eyes were full of worry.

The queen shook her head lightly, and said with a smile, "I'm not in the way, so there's no need to worry!"

Wei Ning'er couldn't understand why the queen took such a risk?

Although Songhezhai was very close to Nanmu Hall, the emperor was discussing state affairs with his ministers at this time, so Wang Lu dared not disturb him, so he could only quietly call Wu Shulai out.

"What's the matter?" Wu Shulai asked in a low voice.

"Eunuch Wu, something is wrong, the empress dowager got angry, and punished the empress dowager and the concubine to kneel in the courtyard of Songhe Zhai!" Wang Lu said out of breath.

"What!" Wu Shulai heard this, and immediately ran back.

"Your Majesty, something has happened!" Wu Shu shouted in a low voice when he came to the emperor.

"What is it?" The emperor frowned slightly.

Wu Shulai didn't care too much anymore, and immediately leaned into the emperor's ear and told the emperor exactly what Wang Lu had told him just now.

Hearing this, the emperor stood up from the dragon chair in shock, and took off the hand that had been covering his right face, exposing his swollen and bruised right face.

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Tingyu and other veterans were terrified.

The emperor didn't care so much, and walked out of Nanmu hall quickly.

"Back to court—" Wu Shulai yelled before following.

……

Outside the main hall of Songhezhai, the Empress and Wei Ning'er had been kneeling for a quarter of an hour. Although the weather in Rehe Palace was cool, but kneeling outside under the sun, there was no way it wasn't hot.

"Your Majesty, get up!" Wei Ning'er couldn't bear it anymore, so she stood up, trying to help the queen up.

"Madam Ling, the empress dowager has an order that you and the empress do not get up in less than an hour!" Lu Mo came forward and said coldly.

"Aunt Lumo, the Empress Dowager is not feeling well, please take care of me for a while, I will apologize to the Empress Dowager!" Wei Ning'er said taking a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, you'd better kneel down, don't make things difficult for the servants!" But Lu Mo grabbed Wei Ning'er, trying to make her kneel down.

Wei Ning'er raised her head to look at Lu Mo, a stern look flashed in her eyes, and her face changed accordingly. She shook off Lu Mo's hand and sneered, "Auntie is in such a big battle, not only ordering this palace, but also Empress Empress puts it in her eyes, I have always shown no respect for those who don't know what is good or bad, why don't you get the hell out of here, it's not up to you, a servant, to point fingers here!"

Lu Mo didn't expect that Wei Ning'er would turn his back on her. You must know that Wei Ning'er was always very kind to them on weekdays, so she was so stern that she even started to fight, which really scared her for a while.

"Young lady, get up!" Chu Xia also stood up, and together with Wei Ning'er wanted to help the queen up.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager's sneer came to everyone's ears: "The Ai family heard that the concubine Ling is very tight. Not only does she keep her mouth open, but she also moves like a shrew in the market. With the pearl hairpin on her head, she wanted to kill the servants around Concubine Xian, and now it seems that this is really the case, why? The concubine even wants to kill the servants around Ai's family?"

"The Empress Dowager, calm down, the concubine is just teaching this blind slave a lesson, and she didn't intend to offend the Empress Dowager!" Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and knelt down.

"The Ai family didn't know that the slaves around the Ai family would bother to be disciplined by the concubine!" The queen mother sneered.

Wei Ning'er straightened up, raised her head, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. She is a slave. Although my concubine is not her serious master, she is also qualified to discipline her as a slave!"

"You..." The Empress Dowager did not expect Wei Ning'er to say that, and stayed there for a while.

Wei Ning'er said again: "Empress Dowager, please forgive my concubine for being bold, for my concubine dared to ask her, even if the Empress Dowager knew that the Empress Dowager would let the emperor go to the imperial concubine's bedroom, so what? Could it be that the empress dowager really wants to punish the empress dowager for such a thing, not to mention that the empress dowager has already said that she didn't know beforehand, if she knew, why should the empress dowager do this? The empress and concubines are nothing more than that!"

"You..." The Queen Mother froze suddenly.

"Bold!" Concubine Xian shouted sharply.

At this time, Wei Ning'er was very anxious, the queen would not let Wei Ning'er tell her that she was pregnant, if this delay would affect the queen's dragon fetus, Wei Ning'er had to come up with this bad plan, to anger the queen mother, and find a chance to help the queen escape .

"Whether the concubine is talking nonsense, the empress dowager knows it well, and you, the empress dowager Xian, know it too!" After Wei Ning'er finished speaking, she winked at Chu Xia, and the two immediately got up and helped the queen up.

At this time, the queen felt that she couldn't hold on any longer, and let the two of them help her up without saying a word, but she looked at Wei Ning'er with a look of relief in her eyes, this girl, she did not waste all these years protecting her looking at her.

"Empress Dowager, this time it's all the concubine's fault, and the concubine is willing to let the Empress Dowager handle it!" After Wei Ning'er helped the queen up, she knelt down by herself.

The Empress Dowager looked at Wei Ning'er, her eyes were flickering, and she said after a while, "Since your concubine is willing to be punished on behalf of the Empress, then let's kneel here for two hours!"

Wei Ning'er couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when she heard the words, it seems that she guessed right, the queen mother didn't intend to punish them, no...the queen mother didn't want to punish the queen, she might just be out of breath, and what she did at this time was just right To the Empress Dowager, pardoned the queen.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside, and when everyone took a closer look, they saw a bright yellow figure flashing in front of them.

"Queen, how are you?" the emperor asked anxiously as he hugged the queen.

"Your majesty, I just knelt for a quarter of an hour, and my concubines are fine!" The queen forced a smile, but her slightly pale face made the emperor see that she was not well at the moment.

"Tell the imperial physician!" The emperor shouted.

The queen mother couldn't stand it anymore, she said in a deep voice: "Emperor, you just knelt for a while, could it be that the queen's body is so delicate now?"

Hearing this, the emperor took a deep breath and said, "Emperor Niang, the empress is pregnant!"

The uncontrollable anger in the emperor's words made everyone silent, but the next moment, they were stunned by what the emperor said, including the queen mother.

"This... Ai's family didn't know about it!" The queen mother was a little flustered.

The emperor remained silent, and wanted to help the empress to leave, but unexpectedly, the empress collapsed into his arms and passed out.

"Queen!" The emperor shouted loudly, and the hands holding the queen began to tremble.

"Come here, tell the imperial doctor!" The queen mother shouted loudly.

The whole Songhezhai was turned upside down for a while.
