The concubine is extremely cautious

Ning Wanyin stood up from the brocade stool, and Lian Rui quickly supported her, "Master, where are you going?"

"Go and pay your respects to His Majesty." Ning Wanyin said.

Xiao Guizi was very surprised and hesitated to speak, "Danli has been driven out. If you go now, His Majesty will not see you. It will only make him more annoyed..."

Ning Wanyin didn't explain anything to him and just walked out.

Xiao Guizi only said a few words of advice but did not stop her. Lady Ning wanted to embarrass herself, and he could not do anything about it. The most important thing was to find a new master as soon as possible.

Lian Rui helped Ning Wanyin out of Lingxue Pavilion. As soon as they reached the entrance of the main hall of Yonghe Palace, they met Li Jieyu who had just returned.

"Ouch!" Li Jieyu fell to the ground the moment she saw Ning Wanyin.

"Master!" The accompanying maid hurried to help, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

"Lady Ning bumped into me..." Li Jieyu pointed at Ning Wanyin and shouted with a wronged look on her face, "Lady Ning, you can't take your anger out on me even though you've fallen out of favor. You bumped into me on purpose!"

Ning Wanyin looked at her coldly with her dark eyes, "I didn't touch you."

"You're the one who bumped into me!" Li Jieyu repeated in a loud voice, and then directed the two eunuchs who were accompanying her, "The lower concubine deliberately bumped into the upper concubine. Someone, slap her in the face!"

Li Jieyu and a group of concubines had just returned from visiting the Imperial Garden with Xue Zhaoyi.

There are too many people who try to curry favor with Concubine Xue.

She couldn't say a word.

In order to curry favor with Xue Zhaoyi, she deliberately did something to offend Ning Wanyin today to teach her a lesson.

The two accompanying eunuchs rushed up and tried to beat Ning Wanyin.

Lian Rui quickly stood in front of Ning Wanyin and angrily shouted, "None of you are allowed to touch my master! Get out of the way!"

But she alone couldn't stop the two eunuchs.

Ning Wanyin was not impatient when she saw this scene, and said to Lian Rui:

"Go and ask His Majesty, don't worry about me."

"Master, but they..." Lian Rui looked at Ning Wanyin worriedly.

Ning Wanyin just nodded affirmatively at her. Seeing that her master was still calm and composed, the tacit understanding that she and Ning Wanyin had developed together made her realize that it would be right to listen to her master at critical moments.

Lian Rui turned around and quickly ran towards Qianxin Palace.

The two eunuchs were stunned by the words "Your Majesty". They looked at each other and then at Concubine Li.

"Jieyu, if His Majesty comes later..."

Li Jieyu stood up with the help of the palace maid and sneered, "Didn't she go to ask for permission today? Didn't His Majesty take care of her? Humph, a concubine who has fallen out of favor, who else does she want to scare? Slap her in the face!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a clear female voice came from nearby: "Stop!"

Tang Miaoling, wearing a blue dress, walked out from the bamboo forest.

A quarter of an hour ago.

She was wandering around Yonghe Palace, holding in her hand the ointment for removing blood stasis and swelling that she had brought specially for Ning Wanyin.

Qiuxia was very confused about this. "Concubine Ning has fallen out of favor and is disliked by the Queen Mother. If you go to give her medicine now, won't you offend the Queen Mother?"

"Oh, you don't understand." Tang Miaoling sighed.

She didn't know the consequences of offending the Queen Mother, but the consequence of offending her cousin was death!

She didn't know whether she could escape death penalty in her cousin's heart. Her cousin was a sinister and vicious person.

Don't just look at her smiling at you.

I have planned clearly in my heart to cut you into several pieces.

Tang Miaoling wasn't sure if she had saved her life. She felt that she hadn't tried hard enough!

So Tang Miaoling tried hard to use her little brain, taking advantage of her past life memory, and decided to act out a "sisterly help in times of need" scene.

When everyone thought that her cousin had fallen out of favor, she was the only cousin who came to her rescue and comforted her.

It has come to this point!

My cousin wouldn’t kill her again, would she?

"You and Concubine Ning have a deep sisterly relationship, so why do you have to move out of Yonghe Palace?" Qiuxia was even more confused.

You had such a good relationship with her that you stayed with her even after she fell out of favor.

Why do you have to move away?

"Alas, you don't understand." Tang Miaoling continued to sigh. Who wouldn't be afraid of a ruthless person who kills people faster than chickens living next door? Moreover, the people she killed included me.

Qiuxia was completely confused. She really couldn't understand what this young lady was thinking.

Could it be that she is too old and can't keep up with the ideas of young people?

Tang Miaoling was really scared of her cousin. She wandered around for a long time, repeating to herself a hundred times "my cousin is so kind and friendly" before finally mustering up the courage to deliver medicine to her cousin. She witnessed Li Jieyu committing fraud on the spot.

"Stop! I saw it with my own eyes just now. Lady Ning didn't touch you at all. You fell down on purpose!" Tang Miaoling glared at Li Jieyu fiercely, then turned to look at Ning Wanyin, and the arrogance in her eyes instantly weakened a little.

He quietly moved two steps away from Ning Wanyin and continued to yell at Li Jieyu, "You are slandering Lady Ning!"

Li Jieyu was a little surprised that Tang Miaoling would stand up for Ning Wanyin.

Although they are cousins, they have a very good relationship, so Tang Miaoling is not in a hurry to move out.

She was reluctant to offend the Tang family, but compared to pleasing Concubine Xue, the Tang family was nothing.

"You and Lady Ning are cousins, so you should naturally speak for her." Li Jieyu lightly blocked it and continued to instruct:

"Paws!"

"Don't move! Who dares to hit my cousin?" Tang Miaoling quickly stopped Ning Wanyin:

"Cui Ping Qiu Xia, quickly protect your cousin!"

The palace maids and eunuchs accompanying her immediately blocked Ning Wanyin behind them.

Ning Wanyin looked at Tang Miaoling in surprise. Her personality had changed quite completely.

Ning Wanyin would never let her guard down because of the kindness shown by others.

There are many cases of people pretending to be friendly and then stabbing someone in the back.

She remembers the favor, but she won't let her guard down.

The noise outside the door alarmed the palace maids and eunuchs of Lingxue Pavilion, but they did not dare to move. They did not want to offend Concubine Li for the disgraced Ning Wanyin, so they just watched from the side.

In the stalemate between the two sides...

"The Emperor has arrived!" the eunuch in the distance shouted.

Li Jieyu looked up in shock, and the emperor's procession came into view. Among the numerous dragon flags and canopies, a man in a bright yellow dragon robe sat on the dragon chariot.

He had a handsome face, but it was expressionless and exuded a majestic and oppressive feeling.

"The concubine pays homage to the Emperor!"

Everyone knelt down.

Helian Qi stepped down from the dragon chariot and walked straight to Ning Wanyin.

He heard Lian Rui's crying and urged the eunuchs to come over quickly. But when he saw Ning Wanyin for the first time, he knew that his worry was unnecessary.

The woman stood quietly, looking calm, not nervous or afraid at all.

It seemed that he was anxious.

"I heard that Concubine Li wanted to punish you, but you are so calm." Helian Qi looked at Ning Wanyin, and no emotion could be heard in his clear voice.

Ning Wanyin raised her eyes to look at him, her watery eyes sparkling, with three parts of joy and seven parts of obedience: "Because I know that your Majesty is fair and will definitely uphold justice for me!"

Helian Qi couldn't help but curl his thin lips.

Obviously, she was smart, calm and composed, so she could still praise him. Ning was indeed interesting.

Helian Qi reached out his hand to Ning Wanyin, helped her up, and then said calmly,

"Li Jieyu, you slandered the concubines and demoted me to a noble."

"Your Majesty, this is unfair! It was really Ning Wanyin who hit me, and Tang Miaoling was her cousin, so she helped her to give false testimony..." Concubine Li hurriedly cried out for justice.

Helian Qi ignored her and continued, "Move out of Yonghe Palace."
