This was not the first time that Su Qingwan came to the palace. Last time, she was escorted by Lin Yuexia, but this time, she obviously did not receive such treatment.

Even though the news of her pregnancy had spread everywhere, when she arrived at the palace gate, there was still no sedan chair sent, so she could only walk in.

It was a hot summer day, and Su Qingwan, wearing the imperial robe, had been walking for nearly an hour, and she couldn't help feeling a little exhausted.

However, she did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, as she knew this was just the beginning.

After finally reaching the Empress Dowager's Cixin Palace, she was stopped outside.

"The Queen Mother has just rested. Madam Yan, please wait outside. I'll see you when the Queen Mother wakes up."

As she spoke, the palace maid beside the empress dowager went in first, leaving Su Qingwan alone standing outside the hall waiting.

"Miss!"

Qinshu glanced at Su Qingwan carefully, his eyes full of worry.

They had already walked for an hour, and now they had to wait here. She was afraid that the young lady could not hold on.

Su Qingwan suffered a lot in order to lure out the Zi Gu.

Su Qingwan shook her head at her:

"nothing!"

This was pretty much what she thought.

These are the only ways to punish people in the palace.

However, the Queen Mother knew that she was pregnant, but she still did this, which was a bit too cruel.

Or perhaps, the Queen Mother also knew that she was not pregnant at all.

So, how much does the Queen Mother know about the poison?

Su Qingwan's mind was busy. She had to attract more attention at this moment, otherwise, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold on.

The news that Su Qingwan was punished to stand in front of the Queen Mother soon reached the Queen's ears.

The Queen didn't want to get involved in this trivial matter. She knew that the Queen Mother was unhappy, but when she thought about Su Qingwan being pregnant, the Emperor's emphasis on Yan Mingjue, and most importantly, the fact that Yan Mingjue was still working with her son.

After thinking for a while, the Queen finally said:

"Let's go to the Temple of Compassion."

Even if this trip would displease the Queen Mother, she still had to go.

More than an hour passed, but there was still no movement from the Queen Mother.

At this time, Su Qingwan was tired and thirsty, and her clothes were already soaked.

The sun was hanging brightly in the sky and she could hardly hold on any longer.

And the Queen Mother didn't know how long she would be left alone.

Originally, before coming here, Su Qingwan thought that as long as the empress dowager was not too upset, she would just go with her.

Now it seems that this is no longer possible.

She winked at Qinshu and then fell headfirst.

Qin Shu was stunned at first, then he understood and shouted loudly:

"Ma'am, ma'am."

At this time, in the Queen Mother's palace, she was half leaning on the couch, listening to the palace maid's report.

"But are you still standing?"

"Still standing outside."

The nanny beside the Queen Mother said hesitantly:

"I heard that she is pregnant. With the sun shining so brightly, I am worried..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the Queen Mother:

"Pregnant? How come I didn't know?"

Upon hearing this, Mammy immediately understood and said:

"That's what the Queen said."

She sighed in her heart. This was all she could do to help. She could only pray for Su Qingwan to be well.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard a commotion outside, and she quickly said:

"What happened? Why all the noise?"

The little palace maid came in immediately and reported:

"Empress Dowager, Madam Yan has fainted."

The Queen Mother sat up straight immediately after hearing this:

"Why is it so useless? How long has it been?"

Hearing this, the palace maids and the nanny did not dare to refute.

No one could stand standing for more than an hour in such a hot sun.

"Forget it, let the imperial physician come and take a look."

"Lest people say that I treated her harshly."

The Queen Mother spoke calmly.

The Queen Mother did not know at this time that things were developing in a direction she had never expected.
