"Empress! Are you okay?" Ningxiang asked involuntarily when she saw Wang's pale face.

"Ningxiang, do you think the emperor will come to my Chengqian Palace again?" Wang's tone was light, without any of the arrogance and complacency she had before the incident.

"I don't know." Ningxiang said slowly.

The Emperor was so angry tonight and looked so disappointed with Wang. It must be very difficult for her to gain his favor again.

Just like Xiang three months ago, after being framed by the person behind the scenes, she has been imprisoned in Zhongcui Palace, as if she had been banished to the cold palace.

Unfortunately, she is the only new concubine who has not been allowed to sleep with the emperor.

"Haha! Even you don't know!" Wang then laughed.

"Empress! You still have the princess. The emperor's only child. The emperor will not ignore you." Ningxiang whispered to comfort her.

"Yes! I still have the princess. But the emperor's love for me is dead." Wang became more and more sad as she spoke.

"It's all because of that bitch Song! It's all because of her that I ended up like this! She planned everything a long time ago." Then Wang said with some resentment.

……

All the concubines in the harem were very surprised that Wang was confined to the harem.

Since Wang had just stole the show at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, she should be rewarded.

But in the end, he was put under house arrest, and no one could figure out the reason.

Jingren Palace.

"Your Majesty! The Queen Mother has ordered Wang to be under house arrest." Caizhi whispered in the Queen's ear.

"Why?" Upon hearing this, the Queen was happy but also confused.

"I don't know either. But I heard it seems to be related to Concubine Song."

"It seems that what my aunt said is right. There is no simple character in the harem, especially this Song. She actually toppled the most favored imperial concubine without making any noise. Her method is really admirable." The queen said, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she did not do anything excessive to the Song family, and even if she had the idea, it had long since disappeared.

Wang must have been framed by her when she was trying to punish her, so she came up with this plan.

Then she turned her gaze towards Su who was lying quietly on the bed resting.

His face couldn't help but smile.

Sure enough, things got much better after changing the target. The Song family was too difficult to deal with. It would be better to turn my attention to someone with a less intelligent brain.

"When Su gives birth to the child, I will reward her with a glass of wine! The child will belong to me."

……

Chaoyang Palace.

When Concubine Huang returned to the bedroom, she looked a little unhappy.

At today's banquet, she was ridiculed by Wang in front of so many people, and she had lost all her face.

It would have been fine if she had just lost her own face, but she only implicated her father, the Grand Marshal of the Northern Dynasty, and brought shame to her family.

"Empress! Xiao Chengzi in front of the palace just now told me that Wang was under house arrest." As soon as the maid spoke, Huang's smile rose.

"It's good that you are under house arrest! Do you know what happened?" Huang asked.

"It seems to be about the Queen Mother's gift."

Huang frowned slightly, "A gift from the Queen Mother?"

"I guess there must be something wrong with the birthday invitation. But the invitation was very sincere and she received a lot of praise. What could be the problem?"

……

Chang'an Palace.

"My lady! Good news!" The maid walked into the inner hall with a happy face.

"Why are you so rash?" Leng looked a little displeased upon seeing this.

"My lady, please don't blame me! I am just a little happy to hear this news!"

"What's the matter?" Leng asked while sitting on the couch.

She was very worried at this time, and she didn't know whether the emperor would be blamed for what she said about Su.

Su was really unlucky. Every time she got close, nothing good would happen.

"The imperial concubine has been confined by the Queen Mother."

"What? How could this be?" Leng was surprised, and then the corners of her mouth rose.

Although I don’t know why Wang was under house arrest, it is something to be happy about.

"As expected! God will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor will he let a bad person go!"

……

Wangyueju.

After taking a bath, Nanxiang started reading a storybook on the couch.

I was watching with great interest when I heard a rustling sound outside.

"My lady! The emperor has turned over your name card!" Caiyun walked into the inner hall and said softly.

"Okay. Got it!" Nanxiang wasn't surprised at all after hearing that.

After all, Su next door is pregnant, and she had a miscarriage at the banquet today. Gu Junshen will definitely come to visit her.

Among all the concubines in the harem, she is the one closest to Su.

It was not known whether the emperor came specifically for her or for the child in Su's belly.

After a while, a tall man stood in front of Nanxiang, looking at her with a pair of clear eyes that were so gentle that they seemed to be dripping with water.

Nan Xiang quickly stood up and saluted. Gu Junshen helped her up as she was about to squat and asked softly, "My beloved concubine, do you blame me?"

The tone was tentative, and his eyes turned into a slightly guilty look.

"Your Majesty?" Nan Xiang looked into his eyes without any hesitation and asked in confusion.

"The imperial concubine stole your credit and received a lot of praise. But in the end I just put her under house arrest. Do you blame me?" He took a deep breath, his voice trembling a little, and his eyes revealed an indescribable loss.

"Your Majesty is joking! You must have your own concerns for doing this! How could I blame Your Majesty?" Nanxiang smiled slightly.

It was the first time she saw Gu Junshen looking so lost and sad, like an affectionate, sloppy puppy.

But this affectionate look didn't seem to be for her.

I couldn't help feeling a little lost.

"My beloved concubine is indeed considerate! Don't worry, I will compensate you." Gu Junshen looked at Nan Xiang's indifferent eyes and the indifference in her tone, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If Nan Xiang got angry and ignored him, he didn't know what to do.

Even though Wang was wrong, she was the woman who had been with him for seven or eight years. He couldn't bear to leave it to the empress dowager to deal with.

Nanxiang is the victim this time and the woman he likes.

As an emperor, he couldn't be completely fair in this matter, so he could only let one of them suffer a little.

Then he smiled faintly at Nan Xiang and said in a friendly tone, "My beloved, have you eaten again? I saw you eating the fruit on the table today. You didn't eat much else."

Nanxiang looked at Gu Junshen's gentle eyes, and the love that was revealed inadvertently, and felt a little dazed.

In the matter of the Imperial Concubine, Nan Xiang's purpose was only to damage her image in front of Gu Junshen. However, his feelings for Wang were deeper than she expected, and she didn't know whether his feelings for her were deeper or lighter?

"I ate two hours ago."

After returning to Wangyueju, she asked the servants to prepare food.

Although the Queen Mother's banquet was rich, some of the food was not good for pregnant women.

Nanxiang didn't eat too much and thought of having a meal again when she returned to the bedroom.

I didn't expect that Gu Junshen could see through my thoughts.
