When Wei Ning'er heard this, a faintly wry smile appeared on her face: "Xianyu turned over... She has put in a lot of effort this time!"

The queen's face was full of solemnity: "Yeah... This is the first time I have seen a person in this palace who is as thoughtful and cunning as her, and who is so ruthless to herself. I have never seen her in the past. Such courage.【 】”

Wei Ning'er pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, let alone whether she is dead or alive? Even if she gets the emperor's sympathy because of this, but... that price is really not small, she...but It's really ruthless, to achieve the goal, even dare to bet on life!"

"Isn't it? It really impressed me!" The queen's eyes were full of ridicule.

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and the emperor finally returned from the Mulan paddock. It was already the end of September.

Watching the emperor lift Concubine Xian off his dragon, both Wei Ning'er and the empress couldn't help but twitch their eyes.

"Emperor, how is Concubine Xian's injury?" The queen mother asked very distressed.

"Emperor's mother, the imperial doctor said that she needs rest!" The emperor showed a smile, but in Wei Ning'er's eyes, it was very reluctant. At this time, the noble concubine Xian was leaning tightly in the emperor's arms, her face turned pale , with her eyes closed tightly, she doesn't seem to be as harmless as the emperor said.

"Send her back first, and call the imperial physicians to have a look." The queen mother said anxiously.

The emperor nodded slightly, then strode away with Concubine Xian in his arms.

"The grace of saving lives is indeed greater than the heavens. Even the emperor can't avoid it. For the first time in these years, the emperor has forgotten this palace!" Back in the palace, the queen muttered to herself while leaning on the soft couch, but Wei Ning'er never There was a deep sadness in her words.

"Your Majesty, now that Concubine Xian is in danger, it is only natural for the Emperor to care about her!" Although Wei Ning'er was not feeling well at the moment, she did not want to see the Empress so sad.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chun and Concubine Shu are here!" Chu Xia came in and said respectfully.

"Please come in!" The queen sat up straight and pulled herself together.

"May the queen be blessed and safe!" Concubine Chun and Concubine Shu respectfully said.

"Get up!" The queen nodded slightly, and then looked at Concubine Chun and Concubine Shu, seeing that their faces were turning pale, she knew that the accident in the Mulan paddock must have affected them.

Concubine Chun and Concubine Shu sat on the chairs for a long time without speaking. The two seemed to be in shock, with panic and fear on their faces.

"What happened?" After a while, the queen lost her patience and asked in a low voice.

When Concubine Chun heard the words, she shuddered all over and fell off the chair, knelt down on the ground, tears streaming from her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Mother, the concubine is finished, you have to save the concubine."

The queen was startled, and then asked, "What's wrong with you?"

When Concubine Chun heard this, she cried even more sadly, and Concubine Shu, who was silently crying beside her, also cried aloud.

Hearing their mournful cries, both Wei Ning'er and the queen felt a little sour in their hearts, and they didn't disturb them.

After a while, as if they were tired from crying, Concubine Chun and Concubine Shu stopped.

"Tell me what happened, so that I can help you!" The queen persuaded softly.

Concubine Chun nodded slightly, and said after a while: "I want to report to your empress, that day was the fifth day we arrived in the paddock. The soldiers with the yellow flags hunted a lot of prey, which was far better than the other flags. The emperor was very happy, so at night When giving the banquet, they called their assistant leaders and participating leaders to reward them, and ordered their men to compete in martial arts. Unexpectedly, a soldier with a yellow flag pulled out his sword and flew towards the emperor while everyone was drinking. , my concubine... usually I am most afraid of fighting and killing, so I was too scared, so I hid behind the emperor and the guards together with Concubine Shu..." Concubine Chun gave a slight pause when she said this, and started to cry again .

After a while, she wiped away the tears from her face, her eyes were full of regret and hatred, and said sharply: "The concubine is hiding behind the emperor, but someone pushed the concubine behind, and the concubine accidentally threw herself on the queen's back." On the back, the emperor was caught off guard and staggered forward, and the assassin's sword also stabbed towards him... The concubine was frightened and froze, only when she woke up did she realize that the sword was blocked by Concubine Xian!"

"But empress, concubine Shu saw clearly from behind, it was Mu Yun who was beside Concubine Xian who pushed the concubine." Concubine Chun shouted excitedly.

"Concubine Shu, tell me!" The queen looked at Concubine Shu who was trembling slightly, and said in a low voice.

"Mistress Qi... The concubine saw Mu Yun push the pure imperial concubine with her own eyes, and she bumped into the emperor!" Concubine Shu seemed to be a little scared, and said submissively.

"Your Majesty, from that day to now, it has been more than twenty days, and the emperor has never looked at the concubine again, and he has never said a word to the concubine. He... must be resenting the concubine, but... it is not the concubine. You want to push the emperor!" Concubine Chun felt extremely wronged, but now that Concubine Xian was in danger, she told the emperor at this time that it was Mu Yun who was beside Concubine Xian who pushed her, which would only make the emperor hate her even more.

"I understand!" After a while, the queen nodded slightly.

Wei Ning'er frowned slightly and said: "Pure Concubine, Concubine Shu, have you seen with your own eyes that Concubine Xian is seriously injured?"

Shu Pin shook her head lightly and said: "I only saw that assassin stabbing her chest, and the blood gushing out, so frightened that I fainted on the spot.

Concubine Chun also shook her head: "I was so frightened at the time, I never saw it."

The queen looked at Wei Ning'er, thoughtful, and then said after a while: "I understand clearly, pure noble concubine, don't worry, I will not let you be wronged for no reason, but... the situation at that time, in the eyes of the emperor, you only care about it." Concerned about your own life, you see him as nothing, and you even want the emperor to stand in front of you to take danger, but... Concubine Xian stepped forward and saved the emperor at a critical moment. Tell me... what will the emperor think? What do you think of Concubine Xian? You have to be careful in the future!"

Concubine Chun's face turned paler than before, and she retreated in tears after a while.

After they left, the queen looked at Wei Ning'er and said, "Did you see something wrong?"

Wei Ning'er nodded lightly, her face full of solemnity, and she said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty... If this was planned by Concubine Xian in advance, then she definitely doesn't want to see her efforts in vain, that is to say, she will try to control the matter In her hands? In this way, can she really let herself suffer from incurable injuries? Is she not afraid that she will accidentally take her life and fall short? Everyone fell into the water that day, I am afraid it is just the beginning... The beginning of her fight for favor!"

The queen's eyes froze suddenly, and then she said in a low voice: "She deliberately made you not go to the Mulan paddock after being frightened, so that she could attack the emperor, and use the opportunity to gain the favor of the emperor and frame the pure noble concubine. , wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone.”

"What the empress said is true, so the concubine suspects that her injury is not serious at all. The concubine believes that the emperor will not untie her clothes to check the injury in person. Those imperial doctors..." Wei Ning'er paused slightly when she said this .

But the queen shook her head and said: "It hurts the heart, and the imperial doctors can't look at it, but the servants around Concubine Xian are the ones who can look at it!"

No matter how the two guessed, there was no way to prove it. Naturally...it was impossible for them to go to the emperor and tell the emperor that Concubine Xian was pretending on purpose. If her injury is real, there will be no way to deal with the aftermath .

Perhaps it was because Concubine Xian's condition had improved, or the emperor finally remembered the empress and Wei Ning'er, so he went to visit them at their residences that afternoon, but at night he still stayed by Concubine Xian's side.

A few days passed quietly amidst Wei Ninger and the queen's speculation and worry. The emperor saw that the time was almost up, so he ordered to return to the capital, but the concubine Xian could not go back with everyone because of her serious injuries. She stayed in the palace to cultivate, and the queen mother also stayed.

"Your Majesty, why don't you stay a little longer, and return to the palace together when Concubine Xian's body is better?" Wei Ning'er leaned in the emperor's arms and said softly.

The emperor sighed and said: "I also mean the same thing, but she said that she usually leaves for Beijing at this time, and the government should not be delayed because of her. The imperial doctor also said that her injury needs to be recuperated for at least two months. I can't wait that long, although most of the ministers are in the palace, but some things are inconvenient to deal with."

After hearing this, Wei Ning'er was thoughtful, didn't this Xian noble concubine clearly refuse to go back to the palace with everyone, and insisted on staying in the palace?If it was someone else, I am afraid that the emperor would stay for her to show his love, but she persuaded the emperor to return to Beijing. If it was not to show her virtuousness and general knowledge, then she had a ghost in her heart!

"Your Majesty is really thinking of the Emperor!" What else can Wei Ning'er say now, to slander her?I'm afraid that the emperor will be unhappy, even she and the empress have to say good things now.

"Well, it's getting late, let's rest earlier, we're leaving for Beijing tomorrow!" the emperor whispered while holding her in his arms.

"En!" Wei Ning'er nodded slightly.

On the second day, everyone got up early in the morning and prepared to return to the capital. Wei Ning'er saw the queen outside the gate, and quietly leaned over.

"I have ordered people to stay and investigate carefully!" the queen said in a low voice.

Wei Ning'er's eyes lit up when she heard the words, she immediately nodded her head without a trace, and sent the queen to the Fenghuo.

Not long after the emperor left, Concubine Xian who was lying on the bed listened to the Empress Dowager nagging in her ear for a long time. When she was about to get impatient, Lu Mo beside the Empress Dowager said in a low voice: "Empress Dowager, this servant is tired of looking at Concubine Xian. Well, how about this slave maid accompanying you to visit your empress some other day?"

"Look at the Ai family, you are really confused, Min Ruo, you take good care of it, and there is Ai family accompanying you in this palace, no one dares to touch you!" After the queen mother said, she gently brushed the thin hair on the forehead of the noble concubine Xian. After brushing over, he got up and left.

The Queen Mother is kind to Concubine Xian, she is naturally very moved, but as time goes by, she will also grow impatient.

"Your Majesty, the empress dowager is gone, you can get up and walk around now, you don't have to worry!" Mu Yun waited for the empress dowager to disappear before running in and shouting excitedly.
