Story of Yanxi Palace: Fu Ying's banner will never fall

Then the emperor turned to the queen and said, "Let the queen deal with this maid."

After saying this, the emperor left Chuxiu Palace without looking back.

Concubine Gao quickly tried to persuade the emperor to stay, but the emperor ignored her and just walked out.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Gao immediately changed her attitude and bowed respectfully to the Queen: "Your Majesty, I will return to my own palace first."

After saying that, she left quickly.

The queen looked at Zhiheng who was still kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in her heart: "Alas, why are you so confused? Now tell me the whole story from beginning to end. If you have any difficulties, I can protect you."

Zhiheng looked at the queen with tears in her eyes, and said in a choked voice: "Queen, I am just an embroiderer in an embroidery workshop, responsible for making clothes. Once, I was ordered to deliver the newly made dragon robe to the Yangxin Palace. On the way, I accidentally met the prince.

At that time, he was admiring an embroidery work and asked the servant whether the embroidery patterns were suitable for Concubine Yu. In this way, we started chatting, and after getting to know each other, our feelings for each other became deeper and deeper... Maybe it was because I was drunk with the prince today, so we couldn't help ourselves... Please forgive me, Queen!"

The Queen stared at Zhiheng closely, knowing clearly that what she said was not true, but she still couldn't help asking, "Are you sure?"

However, no matter how she was asked, Zhiheng always stuck to her story.

So the queen shook her head gently, a look of helplessness appeared on her face, and she said softly: "Forget it, if that's the case, I can't save you, so you should be sent to the Ministry of Punishment."

Hearing this, Zhiheng was instantly panicked, but she could do nothing but stand there silently.

She prayed secretly in her heart, hoping that the prince would remember her and save her.

However, Prince He probably doesn't have time to think about her at this moment, but Concubine Yu may still have a chance.

Mingyu, who was standing by, quickly helped Empress Fucha to stand up. While supporting the empress, she muttered softly:

"Your Majesty, you are so kind. According to palace rules, this kind of crime should be punishable by death."

Empress Fucha turned her head, looked at Mingyu seriously, and said earnestly:

"Mingyu, it's not easy for a palace maid to serve in the palace. Although she has concealed something, her crime is not punishable by death. Well... never mind, let's go back to the palace."

After saying that, the Queen took Mingyu, Zhang Jianyi and others and walked towards Chuxiu Palace.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded: "Empress!"

Amber rushed out from Chuxiu Palace, ran hurriedly to the queen, and saluted respectfully.

The queen turned her head slightly to look at Amber, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but she did not speak.

Mingyu said angrily: "Amber, you can leave after you pay your respects. The Queen wants to go back to the palace, so don't block her way."

Amber knelt down and pleaded, "Empress, I really know I was wrong. It was Sister Erqing who ordered me to stop Mingyu and hurt Wei Yingluo."

Mingyu sneered and said, "Oh, it's too late to repent now!"

Empress Fucha smiled slightly, but asked in a gentle tone: "Amber, I am curious, why are you willing to tell the truth now?"

Amber replied aggrievedly: "In reply to the Queen, I am starving and freezing in Chuxiu Palace every day. I really can't stand it anymore..."

As she spoke, tears began to flow.

Mingyu sneered at Amber, a fence-sitter, and scolded, "You deserve it! It's all your own fault!"

At this time, Er Qing, who had been looking for Amber for a long time, saw Amber kneeling in front of the Queen. She knew that Amber must want to talk nonsense to the Queen, so she hurried over.

Er Qing looked at the scene in front of her, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, she knelt down suddenly, and said in a crying voice:

"Your servant greets the Empress. Your Majesty, please save us! Amber has a fever and is a little confused, so she is talking nonsense. Can you please ask the Empress to ask the imperial physician to take a look?"

As she spoke, Er Qing started to kowtow.

Amber beside him also knelt down and kowtowed like crazy, crying and pleading, "Empress, please save us!"

Er Qing was also in tears, her tone full of pleading.

Mingyu saw that the plea was sincere. After all, Erqing's current appearance did not make her the master's boss. Instead, she seemed to have been tortured. Her face was haggard. She must have lived a life worse than that of a servant. No wonder Amber wanted to switch sides...

The queen looked at Erqing and Amber, who had accompanied her in the past, and saw how they had become. She felt sad for them, but she also remembered Yingluo's advice that the story of the farmer and the snake had been around for a long time, and she must not be soft-hearted...

She thought for a long time, without looking at Erqing and Humber, and said to Zhang Jianyi calmly: "Zhang Jianyi, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask them to give Qing the promised share, and invite an imperial physician to come."

Hearing the queen say this, Erqing and Amber showed ecstatic expressions on their faces and thanked her repeatedly. The queen waved her hand and asked them to get up.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty!" Er Qing knelt down quickly to express her gratitude.

Mingyu walked up to Erqing and said in a sarcastic tone, "Stop calling me a slave. You are the master."

Hearing this, Er Qing's face immediately turned dark. She was filled with resentment, but she hated herself for not being able to resist.

After the Queen and her entourage had gone far away, Er Qing slapped Amber hard and cursed:

"Slut, if you keep jumping around, I'll have you sent to the Xinzheku."

"I...I...I know I was wrong." Amber's eyes were filled with fear, tears accumulated in her eyes. She really couldn't imagine that Er Qing, who was gentle and generous in the past, would become what she is now...

Therefore, Amber hated Erqing in her heart.

Seeing Amber trembling, Er Qing still felt unsatisfied. She lowered her voice and said through gritted teeth, "You'd better remember this. You are now in my palace. We share the same fate. If others find out anything, don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying this, Er Qing glared at Amber fiercely and turned away.

Amber stood there, her body still shaking. She was filled with regret. Why did she follow Erqing to betray the Queen? If she hadn't coveted that little bit of profit, how could she have ended up like this...
