Wearing a book, hooking him up

Kunning Palace.

"I, my concubine, send my regards to my mother."

Ling Yue bowed slightly, her voice soft and gentle, her posture respectful and humble.

The queen sat on a high seat, looking indifferently at Ling Yue below, and felt that she seemed to be becoming more gentle and decent.

"Stand up and sit down."

The queen raised her hand gently, her tone unhurried.

"What business does Crown Princess have with me at this time?"

The queen sat upright on the phoenix chair with a dignified and majestic posture. The palace maid beside her was very considerate and immediately began to serve tea.

"Mother, during this period of time, I may not be able to continue to learn from you about managing the affairs of the East Palace backyard."

Ling Yue raised his head, his eyes dim and full of loss.

"Oh? What happened?"

The queen raised her eyebrows slightly, a puzzled look on her face.

"My mother should also know that last time, when Your Highness went to Huamei Residence to visit Lin Liangyuan, the maid Qingzhi in the Concubine's Palace asked Your Highness to leave, saying that the Concubine had a headache."

The queen nodded slightly, she naturally knew it.

Now she really couldn't understand her son. When he liked the Crown Princess, he married her immediately and didn't take a concubine for two years. The Queen thought he loved the Crown Princess so much.

But after marrying the concubine, he has been favoring her alone for the past few months.

The Crown Princess was neglected. No one knew whether it was because she had fallen out of favor and therefore began to care about the Eastern Palace's palace power and came to Kunning Palace almost every few days, or because she was obsessed with palace power and was disliked by the Crown Prince.

When the queen thought of this, she couldn't help but frown and secretly complain in her heart.

Her son is a romantic man. Every time he likes a woman, he will only be obsessed with that one person. But when the liking for her fades, he will like the next one. He is really unpredictable.

"It is indeed the concubine who did something wrong in this matter."

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, her expression was cold and her tone was calm.

"No, mother, His Highness said that the concubine did not admit to sending Qingzhi to Huameiju."

Ling Yue quickly shook her head.

"So, Your Highness arrested Aokiji and took him to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation, but... but Aokiji said that it was all my orders."

When Ling Yue said this, her voice was obviously choked with sobs.

The queen frowned tightly, and her expression became more solemn.

"What evidence can you produce, Prince?"

"No, it's just that... the prince found contraceptive drugs from Aokiji, and the concubine's body also showed traces of taking contraceptive drugs for a period of time after being diagnosed by Imperial Doctor Li."

Ling Yue sniffed and tried to keep her voice steady.

When the queen heard the word "contraception", her face instantly turned angry.

"Be bold!"

She shouted angrily, her eyes full of majesty and anger.

Seeing that the queen was angry, Ling Yue quickly stood up and knelt down.

"Mother, I know that before the new bride entered the Eastern Palace, there were only me and the concubine in the Eastern Palace, so I am the most suspicious person. However, I really never gave the concubine contraceptive drugs, and Your Highness has not found any evidence that Aokiji has any relationship with me."

Ling Yue's voice was trembling, and her face was full of sincerity.

"I have no way to defend myself now, and Your Highness has also taken back my power to manage the affairs of the East Palace. I only wait for Your Highness to find out the truth and clear my name."

Ling Yue raised his head, his eyes were firm and clear, and he looked upright.

The queen has been in charge of the harem for so many years, and the women in the harem are all good at disguise. She never believes anyone's one-sided words and only looks at the solid evidence.

However, it was unfair for the Crown Prince to remove the Crown Princess' power without any evidence, and it also undermined his prestige as the Crown Prince.

Could it be that he wanted to let everyone know that the Crown Prince was obsessed with women and punished the Crown Princess for no reason?

When the queen thought of this, she was indeed dissatisfied with the prince's behavior.

What the royal family values ​​most is face!

But since the prince has made such a decision, the queen naturally has to protect the prince's face.

"Princess Consort, please stand up. The Crown Prince should not be doing this for the concubine, but for the heir. Giving a woman contraceptive drugs is really abominable. It is okay to be more cautious."

The queen raised her hand slightly and spoke with a slightly slower expression.

After hearing what the Queen said, Ling Yue slowly stood up, a little staggeringly, and sat back in her seat.

"What the Queen Mother said is true. I will not blame Your Highness for taking back the power, and I don't care. I only want the best for Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Ling Yue nodded slightly, her eyes were sincere and firm, her expression was gentle and soft.

"It's just that the contraceptive drugs in the concubine's body have not been completely eliminated yet, and Doctor Li is still conditioning the concubine's body. However, Your Highness has never set foot in the bedrooms of other sisters. This..."

Ling Yue bit her lip lightly, frowned slightly, and showed an embarrassment on her face.

"As the Crown Princess, many of my sisters have asked me about this matter when they came to pay their respects this morning. I don't know what to do, so I can only ask my mother to make the decision."

Ling Yue's tone was full of helplessness and worry, and she looked at the queen expectantly.

She was virtuous and generous, and every word she spoke was for the Crown Prince's offspring and for the other concubines in the Eastern Palace.

"It's great that the Crown Princess has this idea."

The queen nodded slightly, a look of relief on her face.

"I am usually busy managing the affairs of the six ministries in the harem and neglect the Eastern Palace. I didn't expect that the concubine would enter the Eastern Palace now, and the prince would not favor any of her?"

The queen's face darkened again.

I heard before that the prince went to Lin Liangyuan, and although he was asked to go back by the concubine, the queen thought that the prince was not opposed to favoring other women, so she was not particularly concerned about the prince's backyard. As long as he was willing to favor him, there would always be one woman who could give birth among these women.

But more than ten days have passed, and all seven newcomers have entered the palace, but not one of them has been favored yet!

What does the prince want to do?

Many of these women come from wealthy families, and one of them is Ye's legitimate daughter, who is his concubine. Could it be that he doesn't care about the situation in the court?

The more the queen thought about it, the angrier she became, and her face became even worse.

"To reply to the Queen Mother, on the day when His Highness favored Lin Liangyuan, the concubine had a headache. According to His Highness, the concubine was poisoned, and they even found out that someone had given her contraceptive drugs. Perhaps His Highness was concerned about the concubine's body, so he didn't want to favor other sisters."

Ling Yue answered carefully, her voice soft and cautious, as if she was speaking for the concubine.

"After a while, when the concubine is healthy, I believe His Highness will favor other sisters."

Has the Queen seen few women in these decades?

How could she not know what these women were thinking? She originally thought that the concubine had already gained a reputation as a noble lady in the capital even in her boudoir, and that she should be a sensible and well-behaved woman.

Unexpectedly, after entering the Eastern Palace, she not only slapped the Crown Princess in the face in public, but also became jealous, arrogant and domineering. Now, even though she clearly knows that she cannot give birth, she still wants to occupy the Crown Prince.

Then why did she select the best actress for the prince?

Isn't it just to let the prince have an heir before he ascends the throne, so that the prince will encounter less resistance when ascending the throne, and also put an end to the thoughts of Concubine Shu and Prince Duan.

When the queen thought of this, her anger grew even greater.

"Since the concubine entered the East Palace, except for the first day when she came to pay her respects to me, I don't think I have summoned her yet."

"Jinhua, send someone to invite the concubine to Kunning Palace."

There was majesty in the queen's eyes, but her voice was tinged with coldness.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The teacup blocked the curve of her lips, and there was a barely perceptible smugness in her eyes.

Since she has lost her power in the palace today, she will definitely not let Su Jingyao have an easy time.

Shui Ning Palace.

"Master, people from Kunning Palace said that the Queen wants to see you." Miaoyun frowned, her face full of worry.

Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"After waiting for so long, the Queen actually came to me only now. Is it because the Crown Princess went to complain today?"

"I heard that the Crown Prince summoned the Crown Princess to the Yude Hall today. I don't know what the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess said to each other. After the Crown Princess came out of the Yude Hall, she went directly to the Kunning Palace."

Miaoyun lowered her head, frowned, and explained the reason.

"Go to Yude Hall in half an hour and tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that I have been summoned to Kunning Palace by the Queen for quite some time and I have not taken my medicine for today. You are very worried and that is why I went to Yude Hall to ask to see His Royal Highness."

Su Jingyao said slowly.

"Yes, master." Miaoyun responded quickly.

"Miaoxia, please accompany me to Kunning Palace today. You may have to endure some hardships."

Su Jingyao said casually, but there was no fear on her face.

Although the strategy of inflicting pain on one's self is not well used, as long as it is used well, it is the most impeccable strategy.

"Master, I am not afraid."

Miaoxia's eyes were firm and she showed no hesitation.

Su Jingyao turned around and changed into a gorgeous dress with the hem of her skirt swaying gracefully. She didn't wear many pearls and jade on her head, but every piece of jewelry was a treasure sent by Jun Zechen, exuding a unique brilliance.

At least it's not something that the Shangfu Bureau can create casually.

The way she was dressed, she exuded the domineering attitude of a favored concubine.

The Queen must have learned about her domineering behavior in the East Palace from Ling Yue a long time ago. There was no need for her to pretend to be a little white flower in front of the Queen today, and it might even give the Queen the impression that she was scheming.

Then make her the favorite concubine.

The reason why Jun Zechen was asked to go half an hour later was naturally to give the Queen and Ling Yue more room to perform.

When Su Jingyao thought of this, the smile on her face became even more pronounced.
