"You don't know, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for her to die in the future!" The imperial concubine's expression was full of reconciliation. 【 】

"Your Majesty, it's been half a year of confinement. No one can tell what will happen during this period. What's more, the emperor will not go to Lingfei's place for the first half of the year. Isn't this a great opportunity for you to regain your favor?" Ziyan laughed.

"You're right!" The imperial concubine showed a smile on her face, and then ordered: "Let me drive to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, I'm going to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager!"

The imperial concubine wanted to know how the emperor persuaded the queen mother to spare her concubine Ling.

"Empress Dowager, the imperial concubine please see me!" Yuzan came into the hall and said respectfully.

"Show her in!" The Queen Mother nodded slightly.

"May the Empress Dowager be safe and secure!" The imperial concubine entered the palace and gave her a blessing.

"Lu Mo, take them back!" The Empress Dowager waved lightly, motioning for Lu Mo to lead the others away, obviously she had something to say to the imperial concubine alone.

Lu Mo suddenly thought about it, and then calmly led the crowd to retreat.

"The Ai family knows what you want to ask. The Ai family was in a stalemate with the emperor because of Lingfei's matter, so he had to give in. Let her be confined for half a year, which is the maximum limit the emperor can tolerate!" road.

The imperial concubine was shocked when she heard the words, but she didn't dare to say more.

"Do you know why the Ai family must get rid of Concubine Ling?" The Queen Mother looked at her fixedly, and said softly.

"Concubine Ling, poisoning the moon cakes is an unforgivable crime!" the imperial concubine probed.

"You didn't tell the truth!" The Queen Mother looked at her with a half-smile.

"The concubine doesn't know!" The imperial concubine's heart trembled, she didn't know what the empress dowager meant.

"Because of you!" The Queen Mother laughed.

"Your Majesty, you..." The imperial concubine was stunned.

"The Ai family knows that you must have doubts in your heart, why the Ai family has always been so kind to you, even if you make a mistake, the Ai family will protect you in every possible way!" The Queen Mother looked at her with a smile on her face.

"Yes!" The imperial concubine nodded lightly, this was what she had been wondering but didn't dare to ask.

"At this point, the Ai family will simply tell you the secret, your mother is the sister of the Ai family!"

"This..." The imperial concubine couldn't help but widen her eyes. No matter what, she couldn't think of such a reason.

The queen mother smiled and said: "The Ai family doesn't want to say more at this time, you just need to remember that the Ai family will not harm you, but will help you. This time the emperor insists on protecting the concubine, so it is not good for the Ai family to persist. After all, the emperor is The son of the Ai family has gone through the pain of losing the queen, and the Ai family didn't want him to be hurt anymore, so they came up with this compromise method. The concubine was banned for half a year, and your chance has come. Can you get the emperor's favor? Sitting on the empress's throne smoothly, I'll be watching you, a lot of things can change in half a year, and if you win the emperor's favor by then, the imperial concubine won't have to be afraid after she comes out of Yanxi Palace."

"Yes, empress dowager!" The imperial concubine took a deep breath and replied.

What the queen mother said really surprised her, aunt, the queen mother turned out to be her aunt, what is going on?But the Empress Dowager didn't want to say more, she naturally wouldn't ask more, but she made up her mind to call her mother-in-law into the palace in a few days to ask.

In Yanxi Palace, Wei Ning'er finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the order.

"Ning'er, now that you're fine, I can go back with peace of mind!" The princess smiled while holding Wei Ning'er's hand.

"Thank you princess!" Wei Ning'er laughed.

"No need to thank you, take care!" The princess has been in the palace for several days, and it is time to leave now.

After watching the princess leave, Wei Ning'er was about to go back to the bedroom when the door suddenly opened and several eunuchs brought Bing Ruo, Xiao Yi Zi and Qing Yan in.

"Your Majesty!" Wu Shulai slapped: "My Lady, this is the emperor's order. Except for these three people, all the others around My Majesty were sent to Xin Zheku as slaves!"

Seeing Bingruo and the others covered in injuries, Wei Ning'er couldn't help crying.

"Your Majesty, we came back alive!" Bing Ruo smiled while enduring the severe pain all over her body.

"Well, it's good to be alive, it's good to be alive, the future will last forever, and you won't be wronged in vain!" Wei Ning'er cried.

"Your Majesty, now the three of them are injured and cannot serve your Majesty. Instead, they need someone to take care of you. The Emperor specially asked Nanny Li to stay by your side, and the slaves picked a few more reassuring people to come over. The Emperor said, Madam Li, although you The foot is in confinement, but the cost of food and clothing remains the same. The servants will come to greet the empress every day. If you need anything, the empress, just ask the servants! The guards guarding the palace gate are also reliable people. If you are in a hurry, you can tell the empress They came to find the servant!" Wu Shulai said respectfully.

"I'm sorry, Eunuch Wu, please thank the emperor for me!" Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and said.

"Yes, the slave has resigned!" Wu Shulai didn't dare to stay any longer, and immediately withdrew.

Wei Ning'er ordered a few servants to carry Bing Ruo and the others back to the house and take good care of them, and then she felt a little relieved.

Wei Ning'er knew that this was the best ending, otherwise it would be difficult for her to save her life, let alone not only her status, but also the lives of the most reliable servants around her.

She should be thankful and grateful to the emperor, but for some reason, her heart is filled with grievances, being wronged for no reason, and she will not see the light of day in this Yanxi Palace for the next six months. The pain in her heart is terrible. One can imagine.

The days of confinement are undoubtedly the most difficult. Even though Wei Ning'er calmed down, she was still depressed.

What's more, until now, she doesn't even know who tried to harm her that day, so how can she let go completely.

"Your Majesty, it's getting cold, let's go back to the house!" Bing Ruo persuaded softly.

"Yes, ma'am, Xiao Yizi just lit up the charcoal stove, so the room is warm!" Qing Yan echoed with a smile.

It has been a month since the emperor ordered her to be grounded. The three of Bingruo and the others were only injured on the skin, but not injured. They have almost recovered at this time. There were only four masters and servants left in the Jubilee Palace.

"It's only been a month, and there are still five months." Wei Ning'er sighed in a low voice.

At this moment, Xiao Yizi hurried to the backyard: "Mistress, Mrs. Wu is here, waiting for you in the hall!"

Wei Ning'er responded, and went back to the hall together with them.

"Blessings and peace, Your Majesty!" Seeing her coming in, Wu Shulai immediately called her a thousand.

"Excuse me!" Wei Ning'er laughed.

"Your Majesty, the emperor said that it was getting cold. The emperor specially asked the firewood charcoal department to prepare more for your empress. He also asked Guang Chu Sixin to make two fox fur cloaks for you, your empress. Look at them! "Wu Shulai smiled and asked the servants behind him to present it: "Except for the empress, only the imperial concubine got one, and this was given to her by the emperor considering her status as the ruler of the sixth palace!"

Wei Ning'er's heart warmed, and she ordered Bing Ruo to accept it.

"Your Majesty, although you have been grounded, the Emperor's favor for your Majesty has continued unabated. It's getting colder, you have to take care of yourself, Your Majesty!" Wu Shulai said respectfully.

"Well, Eunuch Wu has been troublesome these days!" Wei Ning'er knew that if Wu Shulai hadn't done her duty with all her heart, she would have suffered a lot, at least she had never had a concubine who was grounded and had such an easy life.

"Your Majesty is a slave to you. Being able to serve your Majesty is the slave's blessing. Your Majesty, Concubine Jia, Concubine Chun, Concubine Yu and Lady Lu also let the slaves bring you a lot of good things!" Wu Shulai laughed.

When Wei Ning'er heard this, a warm current flowed through her heart.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, and this servant has to go back to serve the emperor, so I'm leaving!" Wu Shulai said with a smile.

"Wait... how is the emperor?" Wei Ning'er asked suddenly.

When Wu Shulai heard the words, his face was filled with joy: "The emperor is doing well, does the empress have something to tell the slave to the emperor?"

In the past month, he came to Yanxi Palace every day to pay his respects, and when he returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor would ask him about the details, which always made Wu Shulai terrified.

Just because the concubine Ling never mentioned the emperor, which made the emperor very angry.

Wei Ning'er shook her head lightly: "No!"

Wu Shulai was a little anxious, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Emperor often goes to the Yonghe Palace of Concubine Yu this month!"

"Really?" Wei Ning'er smiled: "You see Concubine Yu, congratulations for this palace!"

Wu Shulai never expected that Wei Ning'er would say this, and then smiled wryly: "Madam, the Yonghe Palace is behind your Yanxi Palace, and you can even hear the sound of your piano standing outside the gate of Yonghe."

Wei Ning'er was shocked when she heard the words, and almost burst into tears.

Wu Shulai said again: "Madam, it's getting colder and colder. Usually, the emperor would stand outside the Yonghe Gate for a long time without any serious problems. Now..."

"Wu Shulai, tell the emperor to take care of himself!" Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and said.

"Your Majesty, don't blame the Emperor. This time is what the Emperor can win. This is the lightest punishment for you. Although the Emperor knows that your Majesty is innocent, but...the Emperor also has a lot of helplessness!" Wu Shulai persuaded.

"I know!" Wei Ning'er nodded slightly.

"The slave is resigning!" Wu Shulai gave a slap and quit.

Wei Ning'er sat on the soft couch and remained silent for a long time, until Bingruo reminded her that it was getting late and it was time to eat.

Looking at the table full of food, Wei Ning'er felt disgusted, and waved her hand lightly: "Bing Ruo, take it away, I don't want to eat it!"

"Your Majesty, please use it a little bit. You haven't had any appetite for the past few days. If you continue like this, I'm afraid it will be bad for your health!" Bing Ruo softly persuaded.

Wei Ning'er felt a little helpless, so she had to eat some rice, but unexpectedly she vomited it all out in the end.

"Your Majesty, are you happy?" Bing Ruo couldn't help asking, thinking of her many strange things in the past few days.

"This..." Wei Ning'er was also stunned.

"Your Majesty, think about it carefully!" Bing Ruo said a little excitedly.

They were sent to the Punishment Department last month, and they will be raised for some time after they come back. They have never been personally served, and now they are too confused to be sure.

Wei Ning'er pondered for a long time, before resisting the excitement in her heart, she nodded lightly: "Bing Ruo, I haven't received a monthly letter in two months, and I have been worrying about everything these days. If you hadn't mentioned it at this time, I wouldn't have thought about it." Get up, but..." Wei Ning'er paused slightly.
