Rebirth: Emperor, Long Time No See

"Qing'er, I feel that when the pearl arrives, you need to properly ask about the recent life and rest situation of Yi Feifei. I think that we should be able to find something in it that can help Yi Feifei, then help her wash off the time needed to commit the crime. After that, we can slowly analyze and help Yi Feifei wash away the suspicion of having committed the crime. Big brother Mining said.

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Although time is a bit tight, we should hurry up and save Yi Fei as soon as possible. "If Yi Fei didn't stay inside for one more day, she would have suffered for one more day. She would have suffered for one more day!" Dongfang Ziqing said.

"Alright!" Qing'er, let's put it this way first. You should rest early! As soon as there's any new information, I'll come and inform you immediately. " With that, Big Bro Mining disappeared into the darkness.

"Yi Fei, you have to hold on! I'll come and rescue you out soon! " Dongfang Ziqing walked to the entrance of the chamber and looked at the stars in the night sky as she prayed.

The next day, when Dongfang Ziqing woke up, she saw Xuemei already sitting aside, waiting for her. Seeing that Dongfang Ziqing had woken up, Xue Mei hurried over to help her change clothes.

"Xuemei, why are you up? Didn't I tell you to take a good rest? Why are you so disobedient, go back and lie down! " Dongfang Ziqing was afraid that Xuemei's body had not fully recovered yet. Dongfang Ziqing loved Xuemei a lot.

"Empress, I have nothing else to do. It was just that the back of his neck still hurt a little. He felt really uncomfortable lying there. I couldn't sleep in the morning, so I thought I'd get up and wash up and wait on the queen. "I know that the Empress treats me well and dotes on me very much, but to let me lie there while the Empress takes care of me, I feel really bad in my heart." Xue Mei explained.

"Forget it!" I know what you're thinking. But you know, Xuemei, three years ago, we were already sworn brothers and sisters. When there were only two people, I wasn't your Empress, I was just your elder sister, did you know that? If you are injured, it is natural for big sister to take care of little sister, so you don't need to take it to heart. " Dongfang Ziqing patted Xue Mei's sleeve and said with a smile.

"Empress, I'm still rather used to calling you Empress. It's been so many years, so I'm already used to it." Empress, I'm much better now. It would be better to get up and be a bit more at ease. Should the Empress also prepare a sumptuous feast for Xuemei to fill up the entire Han Mansion? " Xue Mei laughed.

"You! When did you learn to remember nothing but food from Pearl? However, you should make up for your illness when you have just recovered. How about this, when we eat breakfast together, you and I will go to the royal palace to pay our respects to the empress dowager. When we return tonight, you can take some silver taels to the imperial kitchens to fix it before calling the pearl over. Dongfang Ziqing continued.

"Seeing the current situation, we can only ask the empress dowager for help. At the very least, we can make Yi Fei suffer less. Once we find evidence, we can save her life." I hope the empress dowager can believe that Yi Feifei is innocent. This way, we'll have the imperial concubine's imperial orders. We're not afraid of so many underhanded actions from others. "

Hearing Dongfang Ziqing's words, Xue Mei helped her to clean up and then went out to prepare breakfast. Dong Fang Ziqing thought for a moment, then took out the command medallion that the empress dowager had bestowed upon Dong Fang Ziqing from the headboard. Dongfang Ziqing looked at the command token and decided to bring it in case she needed it.

After a while, Dongfang Ziqing and Xue Mei finished their breakfast and said to Xue Mei, "Xue Mei, let's go!" Dongfang Ziqing walked out first, while Xuemei followed closely behind her …

When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Xue Mei shouted, "Let's go, Peace Palace!"

Dongfang Ziqing sat on a palanquin and the group of people set off, heading towards the Palace of Tzu Ning.

An hour later, the group arrived before the Emperor's empress dowager who had lived in the palace for nearly half her life.

Dongfang Ziqing got off her sedan and ordered the eunuchs and palace maids to wait outside the palace. Then she and Xuemei entered the Palace of Tzu Ning.

When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Xue Mei went up to the palace maids guarding the entrance. She smiled and said, "Please inform them that Imperial Concubine Yuwen has come to visit."

"Yes, please wait a moment." That palace maid was very polite. She nodded towards Xue Mei, then slightly bowed towards Dongfang Ziqing, who was behind her, before quickly entering the palace.

A moment later, the palace maid ran out and greeted Dongfang Ziqing respectfully, "The empress dowager has the invitation."

"Right." Dongfang Ziqing slightly nodded and entered together with Xue Mei.

When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Dongfang Ziqing stopped her steps, bent down, and respectfully said: "Yuwen Yanran has come to pay her respects to the empress dowager."

"Mm, come in." A benevolent voice sounded from the main hall.

Dongfang Ziqing straightened her body and smiled. She told Xue Mei to wait outside the hall while she walked into the hall alone.

Entering into the hall, what entered was a buddhist altar with a buddha sitting on it, smiling while pinching his fingers.

Inside, there was a bed. The empress dowager sat on it, smiling as she watched Dongfang Ziqing enter. Dongfang Ziqing didn't raise her head. She lowered her head respectfully and slowly walked inside.

When they reached the front, Dongfang Ziqing respectfully greeted the empress dowager. "Yuwen Yanran greets the empress dowager."

"Child, get up! There are no outsiders here, so there's no need for us to be so courteous. " The empress dowager looked very happy when Dongfang Ziqing came to her place. After all, it was difficult for ordinary people to experience the joy and warmth of meeting a member of her family in the quiet courtyard of the imperial harem.

"Thank you, empress dowager." Dongfang Ziqing stood up after she finished speaking and raised her head to see the empress dowager's gratified face. She felt a surge of warmth; it seemed that she should have come to visit the empress dowager more often. Everyone who stayed in the palace for a long time was lonely.

"Child, you can just call me aunt. There are no outsiders here. Why did he suddenly remember to come to this Peace Palace today? Is there something you need from This Dowager? " The empress dowager was quite shrewd. From the last time they parted, Dongfang Ziqing hadn't come to visit her for quite some time.

"Then Yanran will do as you say. Aunt, I really came here today for a request. I wonder if Aunt will agree to it? " Dongfang Ziqing said respectfully.

"Oh. "Yanran, why don't you tell me, auntie isn't allowed to agree to anything. You must know that even though I'm not very old, if it's something related to the government, then aunty is helpless to help." When the empress dowager heard Dongfang Ziqing's words, she knew that something that would make Dongfang Ziqing ask for it was definitely not a simple matter.

"I don't know. Did aunt hear about the recent incident in the palace regarding the death of the pretty girl from Hundred Flowers Palace? Is esteemed wangfei even being sent to prison because of that?" Dongfang Ziqing carefully observed the empress dowager's expression after she finished speaking.

At this moment, Dongfang Ziqing was extremely nervous, even though she and the empress dowager had a blood relation. However, they had only known each other for a short period of time. Even though Dongfang Ziqing knew that the empress dowager had treated her very well, and even gave her her only command medallion. However, the matter with Yi Feifei was rather serious this time. Even the Emperor was alarmed by Chen Mo, while Dongfang Ziqing had come to ask for the empress dowager's help as a last resort.

"I have heard of this matter before. It is spreading like wildfire throughout the harem. I only heard that Yi Concubine had deliberately caused the death of Chun Er, one of the Elementary Scholars from the Hundred Flowers Palace. The only reason the evidence is conclusive is that Yi Concubine has yet to confess her guilt. " The empress dowager thought for a moment and said.

"Aunt, I am sure that Yi Fei is innocent. This matter is not as simple as it appears to be. There are many things that do not make sense. How could a dignified imperial concubine murder a pretty girl? Furthermore, the attitude of the guards' camp is too weird. To close a case hastily, it's basically someone trying to cover it up! " Dongfang Ziqing said.

"Child, the guards camp is usually responsible for more serious and thorny cases. I believe that without sufficient evidence, the guards camp won't dare to act rashly. This matter had been implicated far too much, even including the few imperial concubines. Hearing your words, This Dowager has to think it over. " The Empress Dowager said.
