Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 390
Early this morning, the emperor received a memorial from Dali Temple, in which he briefly explained Wanxi's affairs.After reading it, the emperor became suspicious.He sent Wanxi to the general's mansion, and he still has a certain understanding of his pawn.

Wanxi looks weak on the outside, but she is actually a bit arrogant, but that doesn't mean she has the guts to offend Princess Lu.And he knew that Wanxi's city mansion was not deep enough, but he would never be so stupid as to poison Princess Lu because of a dress.

Almost immediately after reading the memorial, the emperor began to suspect Jing Ning.

"It's the court lady who didn't control Wanxi well, which made her commit such a wrong thing, and asked the emperor to punish her." Jing Ning frowned, she lowered her head, the emperor couldn't see clearly the expression on her face. expression.

"Do you think she will really poison Princess Lu?" The emperor raised his eyebrows, his tone was very cold, and he looked at Jingning with murderous intent.

"My daughter doesn't know, but the facts are so. If the emperor suspects that my hands are not clean, he can just send someone to investigate." Jing Ning's tone was very calm, but a thin layer of cold sweat oozed from her forehead.

She dared to say this, of course she has the confidence. Firstly, this matter was planned by Princess Lu, and she was just pushing the boat along. She knew the method of Princess Lu. No matter how hard the emperor checked, he couldn't find out. What valuable clues, the most important thing is that Wanxi has died in prison right now, and there is no proof of her death at this time, so there is no way to find out.

"You!" The emperor stood up abruptly, and raised his finger to Jing Ning, obviously annoyed by her.The emperor naturally knew that nothing could be found, and he had no hope of finding out anything from Jing Ning, but Jing Ning's attitude at this time really angered him.

Jing Ning also knew that what she said was not very appropriate, and immediately kowtowed to the emperor and said in a low voice: "The emperor calms down, it was the court lady who uttered wild words to offend the emperor, but Jing Ning really didn't dare to do anything to Wanxi, after all that It is a person bestowed by the emperor to the general's mansion, and the courtiers dare not neglect, please the emperor to check it out!"

The emperor's face softened slightly when he heard the words, he looked at Jing Ning with a gloomy face, as if he was thinking about how to punish her, at this moment a shrill voice sounded: "Your Majesty, Princess Lu is asking to see you, she is waiting outside the palace It's on."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashed brightly, and said in a deep voice, "Xuan."

Concubine Lu wore a simple and elegant blue dress today, but she was still full of charm, with a hint of charm on her pretty face.

"What's the matter, Young Madam, that the emperor is so angry?" Concubine Lu glared at Jing Ning as if complaining, and then she looked at the emperor and continued, "Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon body. If you are angry, How can you break your body?"

Ever since the moment he saw Concubine Lu, the emperor's eyes had never left her. At this moment, Concubine Lu was smiling at Yan Yan to please her, so the emperor couldn't take his eyes away, the anger on his face had long since disappeared.

Jing Ning felt nausea in his heart, and goosebumps all over his body.

"Your Majesty, that Wanxi poisoned me yesterday, and I vomited blood. Look, the blush I put on today can't make me brighten up." Concubine Lu took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped her tears as she spoke. A look that I still feel sorry for.

The emperor almost wanted to embrace the beauty immediately, but because Jing Ning was still kneeling at the bottom, he could only pretend to be serious and said: "The poisonous woman has committed suicide in prison, so you don't have to worry about it anymore. Jing Ning, you should step back first."

While talking, the emperor waved his hand at Jingning, obviously thinking that she was delaying his good deeds.Hearing this, Jing Ning glanced at Concubine Lu Gui, Concubine Lu Gui slightly nodded her head, and Jing Ning backed out.

As soon as the palace door was closed, Jing Ning heard bursts of charming laughter coming from inside, she trembled involuntarily, feeling a chill in her heart.But she finally breathed a sigh of relief, now that Concubine Lu is dealing with the emperor, she thinks this matter should calm down.

However, when Jing Ning was about to return to the general, he bumped into Concubine Ji.

But I haven't seen her for a few days, Ji Guifei's face is no longer as bright and charming as before, her complexion is pale and tired, her eyes are full of sharpness, even the gentleness that she pretended to be is gone.

Jing Ning's heart skipped a beat, and he was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Concubine Ji.

"Young Madam, why is she leaving when she sees me? Are you guilty?" Concubine Ji Gui stood firmly behind Jing Ning, looking at her with resentment.

In desperation, Jing Ning had no choice but to bite the bullet and turn around, and bowed to Concubine Ji.

"Chen Nu can't understand what you're saying." Jing Ning's expression was flat, but she clenched her hands in her sleeves.She naturally knew what Concubine Ji meant.If it wasn't for her that day, the Ji family would not be what it is today, but if Jing Ning is given another chance, she will still stick to what she did at the beginning.

"Oh, I don't understand, Zheng Jingning, listen to me, I will settle the hatred of my Ji family with you!" Concubine Ji's delicate and beautiful face was distorted by the hatred, and the ferocious expression made her feel ashamed. Jing Ning's heart trembled for a while.

"Concubine Ji, justice is at ease in people's hearts, I'm afraid the Ji family has done a lot of evil things." Jing Ning recalled the leisurely and hopeless expression that day, and his tone suddenly turned a little cold.

Concubine Ji Gui didn't seem to expect that Jing Ning would say such words to herself with such an attitude, she was taken aback for a moment, then narrowed her eyes and stared at Jing Ning fiercely.

"You are stubborn, I want to see if you can still be so stubborn after meeting the emperor!" Concubine Ji waved her hand lightly while talking, and then two court ladies stepped forward to restrain Jingning.

But Jing Ning didn't resist, she just raised her eyebrows and looked at Concubine Ji coldly.

It turned out that when Concubine Ji heard about Wanxi early in the morning, she also knew that Emperor Xuan Jingning had entered the palace for interrogation, so she hurried to the Hall of Zhenghe, intending to pour dirty water on Jingning to take revenge on Ji's family.But Concubine Ji didn't know that the questioning in the Zhenghe Palace had already ended, and other activities were going on right now.

Jing Ning also guessed what Concubine Ji was thinking, so she didn't resist. She even looked forward to Concubine Ji's plan when she saw the scene in the palace.

"Your concubine, you can't go in!" The little eunuch at the door looked anxious, and Concubine Ji gave him a cold look and then silenced him.Jing Ning sneered in her heart, this is what you want to go in!

The moment Jing Ning pushed open the palace door, he heard Concubine Lu's soft cry, and Concubine Ji's gasp.

"Presumptuous! Who allowed you to come in!" The emperor's roar revealed a bit of anger from embarrassment.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Jing Ning hurriedly begged the two maids beside her, and quickly walked out of the palace, she didn't want to go into this muddy water.Before leaving, she glanced at Concubine Ji's stiff figure, and sighed in her heart.
