Hearing Wei Ning'er's words, Yongzhang seemed to understand a lot, the haze of the past few days was swept away, and he said with a smile: "Thank you for your teaching, I understand!"

"Your mother passed away not long ago. At this time, you go to the queen to ask for a maid. If she refuses, it will not be good for the matter to come to the emperor. First, I will ask the maid to come to my side and find a suitable opportunity. This Palace will inform His Majesty Ming to bestow this maid to you!" Wei Ning'er laughed after thinking for a moment. 【 】

"Yes, my son, thank you for your kindness!" The third elder brother couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard this.

After this delay, when Wei Ning'er had breakfast and went to Yimengxuan to pay her respects to the queen, it was already a bit late.

Seeing that Wei Ning'er was late, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across the Queen's face, but she did not show any anger. After Wei Ning'er sat down, she smiled and said, "My sister is getting heavier, so I don't need to come to this palace in the future to make up my mind!"

"Thank you, empress, for your love. The concubine is in good health these days. It is the concubine's duty to pay respects to the empress!" Wei Ning'er didn't know what the empress meant. If she didn't come, the harem would be the queen's world. Now that she is here, She can also take care of each other with Concubine Yu and Lu Yunxi.

"Since my sister insists, then I will follow my sister's order!" The queen laughed softly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.

"The concubine met a maid when she was wandering in the yard yesterday. The concubine liked it very much. When I went back and sent someone to ask, I found out that she was from the palace of the empress. Her name was Zijuan. The concubine had an unfeeling request. I want my empress to give this azalea to my concubine, what will my empress think?" Wei Ning'er didn't bother to argue with the queen, so she simply revealed her intentions.

The queen's face changed slightly when she heard the words, she suppressed the anger in her heart, and said with a smile: "Sister, you are good at picking people. This Zicuckoo is the most outstanding among the newly promoted maids this year, regardless of appearance, talent, and temperament. Ben Gong specially named her Zijuan, hoping that she would become the most capable person around Ben Gong just like Zi Yan, the eldest maid beside him, but... since you like my younger sister, Ben Gong should bear the pain to part with her!"

Wei Ning'er thought that the empress would not like it, but she agreed so readily, and said with a smile: "It's really wrong to let the empress bear the pain to part with her. However, my concubine also likes that girl very much, thank you, empress!"

"Mu Yun, go and bring Zijuan out!" The queen ordered Mu Yun who was beside her.

"Yes, servants obey!" Mu Yun replied.

"It's really a blessing for a little maid to be loved by the empress and the concubine. The concubine can't wait to see her true face in Mount Lu!" Concubine Yu laughed.

Based on her understanding of the queen these days, she knows that this matter is not simple. According to the queen's temperament, she should not be willing to hand over her to Concubine Ling, and... using people from other people's palaces has always been in this palace. It's a big taboo, Concubine Yu doesn't understand what Ling Guifei means.

Concubine Yu and Lu Yunxi glanced at each other. They both looked at Wei Ning'er with worry in their eyes. In their view, Wei Ning'er is pregnant now, and it is time to be careful, but she is asking the queen for someone. This is not for the queen. An opportunity?

Wei Ning'er smiled, signaling them to be at ease, and then said to Concubine Yu: "Sister Concubine Yu, are you still used to drinking that secret medicine these few days?" Before Concubine Yu could reply, Wei Ning'er smiled again: A little bit, but the effect is really immediate, as long as my sister drinks it for a few months, she must be able to conceive a dragon fetus."

"Yes!" Concubine Yu's face was full of fear when she heard that, Wei Ning'er did send servants to deliver Coptis chinensis these few days, but she always ordered people to pour it secretly.

"Bingruo, from tomorrow onwards, you will personally send it to Concubine Yu and other servants, I am not at ease!" Wei Ning'er said with a half-smile.

"Yes, this servant will definitely serve Concubine Yu to drink that soup in person!" Bing Ruo's words made Concubine Yu's face turn pale instantly.

"Your Majesty, my concubine is in good health, the imperial physician said that there is no need to drink soup and medicine!" said Concubine Yu boldly.

"Isn't it possible? I have already informed the emperor. The emperor is very pleased to know that my sister, you want to make a living for the royal family. He specially ordered this palace to give you the secret medicine. I don't know if any of the sisters would like it." ?" Wei Ning'er glanced at everyone and said with a smile.

All the people who had just craned their necks to watch the play couldn't help lowering their heads when they heard what Wei Ning'er said, for fear of getting burned.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." At this moment, Mu Yun hurried in with a look of astonishment on his face.

"What happened?" Seeing that Mu Yun was so panicked, the queen asked immediately.

"Mother, something is wrong, Zijuan hanged herself!" Mu Yun tremblingly said.

"What?" The queen's face changed greatly when she heard the words, and she shouted, "How can a good person commit suicide?"

"Your servant doesn't know either!" Mu Yun shook her head fiercely.

Zi Yan at the side said with a frightened face: "Qi Madam, last night it was the turn of Zijuan and the three people in her room to be on duty. When the servant went to give orders, she found Zijuan lying on the bed and seemed to be unwell, so the servant asked her to rest. I never thought that such a thing would happen!"

"Your Majesty, just now, when the servant girl went to find Zijuan according to her order, she met the three palace maids who lived in the same room as Zijuan when she went back. When she opened the door, she saw Zijuan hanging on the beam. She died so miserable!" Mu Mu There is a crying voice in the cloud language.

"Come here, let me show you, I want to go and see for myself!" The queen heard the words, her face was full of solemnity, then she stood up from the phoenix chair and walked to the backyard with Mu Yun's support.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, everything has been arranged properly!" Mu Yun said next to the Queen's ear in a voice that they could hear.

The queen nodded slightly, a meaningful smile flashed across her face.

"Your Majesty!" Bing Ruo was startled when she saw Wei Ning'er standing up.

"Follow me to take a look!" Wei Ning'er ordered.

"Your Majesty!" Lu Yunxi stepped forward to hold Wei Ning'er's hand and shook her head gently: "My Majesty is heavy, you can't go to such a dirty place, lest you hit the dragon's fetus!"

"That's right, empress, let's go back to the palace!" Concubine Yu also said anxiously.

"Two sisters, it's inconvenient to say something at this time. This Zicuckoo died strangely. I'm going to take a look, otherwise something big will happen!" Girl, the person is dead at this time, if there is a quarrel, I'm afraid it will be bad for the third elder brother.

Naturally, Lu Yunxi and Concubine Yu didn't know what was going on, seeing that Wei Ning'er insisted on going, they had no choice but to follow.

When they arrived at the backyard of Yimengxuan, Wei Ning'er and his party saw Zicuckoo lying on the ground, and they couldn't help turning their heads away from the miserable appearance.

"Ma'am, there seems to be something in Zicuckoo's hand!" Hai Sheng, who was in charge of checking, said respectfully.

"Take it here and have a look!" the queen said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Haisheng replied, and then tried his best to break away Zijuan's already stiff hand, and took out the blood jade wrench tightly held in her palm.

"Young lady, please look!" Haisheng knelt on the ground and raised his hand to present the wrench.

Concubine Yu's face turned pale the moment she saw the blood jade finger ring. The finger ring was polished from extremely rare blood jade. In this palace, there are only a handful of people who own this finger ring.

A few years ago, the emperor got a piece of top-quality blood jade by chance, and ordered the House of Internal Affairs to polish it into fingers, which were given to the older princes. The names of the princes were engraved on the inside of the fingers, which was a sign of their status. symbol.

Now the only princes who own this blood jade finger ring are the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother.

Concubine Yu was terrified, afraid that the finger pull belonged to Yong Qi, and her heart went up to her throat.

"My lady, this finger belongs to the third elder brother, and the third elder brother's name is engraved on the inside!" Mu Yun said respectfully.

"How can the maid next to me have the third prince's personal belongings?" The queen was furious when she heard the words.

"Qi Niang Niang, there is a saying that I don't know whether I should say it or not!" Zi Yan said anxiously from the side.

"Speak!" The queen shouted in a deep voice.

"Mother, the four newly promoted maids were trained by Aunt Mu Yun herself. These days, after learning the rules, they are led by servants. This Zijuan is indeed a bit strange these days. The servants in the palace often see a person hiding and crying. , Ask her and she won't answer!" Zi Yan said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, on the way back to the palace with Xiaolan to get the spices yesterday, I saw the third elder brother holding the azalea in the flowers of the small garden. Let go of Zicuckoo, and..." Mu Yun couldn't help but lose his voice when he said this.

"How about it?" The queen seemed very angry, her face was full of anger.

"The third elder brother also said that he wanted Zijuan, so I asked the servant to tell you, Ming Niangniang, but later Zijuan refused, and begged the third elder brother to let her go. With the persuasion of the servant girl, the third elder brother was willing to give up!" Mu Yun trembled. report.

"It's so courageous that you dare to insult the maids of this palace. Even if he is an elder brother, he shouldn't be so presumptuous. Come here, send a mother to examine Zijuan, and report this matter to the emperor. This palace wants to invite The emperor decides!" The queen took a deep breath and shouted.

Everything that happened suddenly made Wei Ning'er smell a conspiracy. She was sure that the queen was going to attack the third elder brother. Thinking of this, Wei Ning'er winked at Xiao Yizi who was on the side. Prepared, and immediately sneaked away.

"Sister, what happened?" Concubine Yu asked after seeing the Queen angrily leading everyone to the hall.

"Just like my sister saw, the third elder brother fell in love with Zijuan, and begged me to make the decision for him, to bring this girl to my side, and find an opportunity to give her to her in the future. I never thought of..." Wei Ning'er said lightly. Shake your head slightly.

"How can a good person say that they are gone when they are gone, Ning'er, I'm afraid this is the queen's trap!" Lu Yunxi said with a serious face.

"Elder sister is right. Sister Chun just passed away not long ago. She entrusted us to take care of the third elder brother on her deathbed. I can't just watch the third elder brother get killed." Wei Ning'er said with a serious face.

"Yes!" Lu Yunxi and Concubine Yu also nodded heavily, and they would not sit idly by.

The three of them returned to Yimengxuan Hall, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was extremely heavy. The queen sat on the phoenix chair without saying a word, but her expression was extremely ugly.

About half an hour later, the people sent by the queen also invited the emperor.
