After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

"It's clearly you who harmed yourself!" Ning Ruyan gained confidence when she saw Ning Guiren.

"It was you who got the juice on your hands and poisoned yourself. What does this have to do with me?"

"You think you have a reason to plant poisonous flowers? What is your intention in planting those flowers? Are you trying to deal with other people? This princess just happened to uncover your conspiracy."

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm different from you." Ning Ruyan was so anxious that she spoke without thinking.

"How outrageous!" The Queen slammed the chair and glared at Ning Ruyan.

"Enough!" The emperor held his forehead.

On one side is the queen, on the other side is the favorite concubine.

On one side is the biological daughter, and on the other side is the daughter-in-law.

It’s no wonder, as the saying goes since ancient times: “Even an honest judge cannot settle family disputes.”

"Princess Qi, you failed to manage your household properly and planted poisonous flowers that caused damage to the princess' body. I will punish you by sending you to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to copy scriptures for three months and deduct half of your monthly salary. If you do not repent, I will not show mercy."

"emperor!"

"emperor!"

Concubine Ning expressed her sympathy, while the Queen said it was too light.

"The King of Qi was dismissed from his post in the Ministry of Justice, ordered to reflect on his mistakes at home for a month, and fined for half a year."

As the head of the family, the emperor made the final decision.

Although he was frightened at the banquet, Shen Yunjin was not affected. He returned to the house and fell asleep immediately.

She didn't wake up until dawn.

Only then did she feel that her bed was exceptionally warm today, as if there was a big heater inside.

She turned her head and saw King Qi Xiao Minshen sleeping soundly.

She supported her head with her hands and observed the King of Qi at such a close distance for the first time.

For the first time, she discovered that Xiao Minshen's eyelashes were very long, like a row of long brushes.

The straight nose bridge looks like it was carefully carved, without any flaws.

Her thin lips were tightly pursed, with an arc at the corners.

The sleeping Xiao Minshen lost his coldness and looked more like a scholar enjoying the breeze and bright moon.

"Have you seen enough, Concubine?"

When Shen Yunjin was about to trace the shape of Xiao Minshen's lips with his hands, Xiao Minshen opened his eyes.

"Uh, the baby is hungry. I'll get up right away." Shen Yunjin, who was caught, blushed.

Xiao Minshen suddenly turned over and approached Shen Yunjin with his face.

"What? Are you tired of this?" As he said that, he lowered his head and pecked Shen Yunjin on the lips.

Shen Yunjin pushed him with both hands, "Your Majesty, the concubine and the baby are hungry."

"Forget it, I'll spare you. I won't let you off so easily next time."

After saying that, Xiao Minshen let go and lay back down.

"Your Highness, are you not busy today?" Shen Yunjin was very curious.

Xiao Minshen is always busy, either doing official business or discussing official business with his staff.

It's rare to see such a hardworking person being so lazy.

"I'm not busy. I have time to accompany you now. Maybe I can even accompany you until the child is born."

Xiao Minshen turned over and put on his coat.

Only then did Shen Yunjin remember what happened yesterday.

She walked over, raised her arms to hug Xiao Minshen's waist, and rested her head in his arms.

"What was the emperor's final decision?" she asked.

"This prince will be dismissed from his post, confined to his home for one month, and fined half a year's salary. The Princess of Qi will be fined three months of copying scriptures in the ancestral temple and fined half a year's salary."

Xiao Minshen spoke in a flat tone, as if he was narrating someone else's affairs and it had nothing to do with him.

The emperor still let it go and let Prince Qi Xiao Minshen take the blame. Shen Yunjin couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that Concubine Ning still holds a very high position in the emperor's heart.

However, there are definitely people who are more indignant than her.

"Your Majesty, it's a good time to take a rest. Your last injury has not healed yet. Besides, what if, after the New Year, the emperor has other important tasks to entrust to you?"

Shen Yunjin concealed the regret in his eyes, raised his hand and gently patted Xiao Minshen on the back.

"Well, I know what's going on. You should rest assured and take good care of your pregnancy. The most important thing is to give birth to a child for me."

After Xiao Minshen finished speaking, he raised his eyes, and the trace of fragility just now disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.

After breakfast, Xiao Minshen arranged for people to dig out all the flowers that were causing trouble in the mansion.

The vacant space can only be used to plant flowers and plants after spring.

The steward of the palace was beaten with thirty sticks and driven out of the palace.

Madam Zhao, who was in charge of leading the way that day, and several maids were beaten with ten boards and almost lost half their lives.

The Prince of Qi's palace also closed its doors to visitors.

Shen Yunjin stroked her belly and listened to Jinzhi talk about Xiao Minshen's punishment of a group of people.

Anyang’s poisoning was not actually entirely due to the juice on her hands. The juice on her hands caused her poisoning, but it was not particularly serious.

The real reason why she was poisoned and vomited blood was because there was a small amount of flower juice on the roasted lamb ribs.

This grilled lamb ribs with added ingredients can only be found in Anyang.

Shen Yunjin took a small amount of the flower juice in advance and put it in a small glass bottle.

When she went out to change her clothes, the dish was served.

She pretended to accidentally bump into the maid who was serving the food. When she asked Jinzhi to ask if she was okay, she took the opportunity to sprinkle the juice on the lamb chops.

Because the lamb chops are freshly grilled, all the juices disappear once they are sprinkled on them.

Shen Yunjin had already investigated and found out that Anyang really liked to eat this kind of heavy-tasting food.

She guessed that Anyang would eat it all.

In this way, even if Doctor Li was there, he would not have thought that the juice would be on the meat.

Anyang likes flowers, especially colorful ones. When she sees these flowers in this season, she will definitely not miss the opportunity to pick one or two.

In fact, Shen Yunjin really wanted to add a little more substance and directly take Anyang's life.

Shen Yunjin hesitated for a moment when he had the chance to take revenge on the bone-eating pain he had suffered in his previous life and in this life he had the chance to take revenge on it with his own hands.

However, when she touched her bulging belly, she gave up the idea.

No rush, take your time. She has plenty of time and opportunities. She can't drag her child into hell with her.

She thought that the emperor would severely punish Ning Ruyan. After all, Anyang was his most beloved first daughter.

However, she underestimated the importance of Concubine Ning in the emperor's heart.

Ning Ruyan escaped the disaster, but Xiao Minshen had to take the blame.

Shen Yunjin felt a little guilty towards Xiao Minshen, but she did not regret it.

If she could go back in time, she would still do the same.

One of them took her life in her previous life, and the other one wants her life in this life. How could she let him go easily?

The emperor showed leniency to Ning Ruyan, but what about the queen?

As a mother, would she so easily forgive Ning Ruyan for the person who harmed her daughter?

For the sake of Concubine Ning, the Emperor actually let go of a man who almost took his daughter's life. Would she let Concubine Ning go so easily?

And what about Anyang? She is a vindictive person.

Ning Ruyan made her suffer such a huge loss, and now with what happened last time, will she settle all the old and new accounts together?

Shen Yunjin began to wait and see.
