In the imperial study, Qi Yejing was reviewing memorials when Dong Ling came in and whispered something in his ear.

Qi Yejing's eyebrows raised instantly.

"real or fake?"

"I'm already outside, waiting to see you."

"Okay, let her in then."

"Yes."

Dong Ling went out quickly, and after a while, he came back with Wei Lin.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."

"No courtesy, get up."

Qi Yejing raised his hand slightly and said with a smile.

"Why did you come to see me?"

"Didn't the emperor say in Qingning Palace that as long as one of my mother and I died, you would not bother with us? Does that still count?"

"Of course it counts, but it seems that neither you nor your mother are dead."

"No, my mother is dead."

Qi Yejing was stunned for a moment, and her eyes slowly fell on the wooden box beside her.

"Could it be that in here, ..."

"It's just what the emperor wants."

Qi Yejing took a deep breath and his eyes fell on Dong Ling. Dong Ling immediately stepped forward, took the box and handed it to him.

He slowly opened the box and saw Mrs. Wei's head in front of him.

He was shocked.

It’s not because I was scared when I suddenly saw a head.

But he never expected that Wei Lin would be so cruel that he would kill his own mother in order to save his own life.

It would have been bad enough if he had killed his mother, but he actually chopped off her head. Such a person must not be allowed to live.

Although he thought so, he did not show it in front of Qi Yejing.

"Since your mother is dead, this matter is over. However, the New Year is coming soon. I hope you can behave yourself. Otherwise, there will be no one to die for you next time."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. After this incident, I have learned my lesson and know what to do and what not to do."

"That's pretty much it."

Qi Yejing nodded.

"Okay, I still have a lot of memorials to deal with. I don't have time to entertain you. You can go back first."

"Your Majesty, please retire."

After watching Wei Lin leave, Qi Yejing ordered the palace maids to clean all the places where she had just stayed. Even the imperial desk was wiped again and smeared with sweet fragrance to remove the bloody smell in the room.

After it was done, Qi Yejing's complexion looked better.

"Go to Concubine Zhou and tell her about this. When you come back, go to Qingning Palace and tell Concubine Yi to stay in Qingning Palace for a while. Don't go out and play mahjong with others, so as not to be plotted against."

"She's blind now. If she gets into danger, it won't be fun."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do it right away."

In Qingning Palace, Yun Zhining was also shocked when she received the news.

"Did Wei Lin really cut off Madam Wei's head?"

"I saw it with my own eyes, how could this be false?"

Yun Zhining silently gave a thumbs up.

These sisters are awesome!

She can't be as ruthless as him.

I admire you.

"Dong Ling, thank you for making this trip. Don't worry, the New Year is coming soon, and I don't want to cause trouble. During this period of time, I will stay in Qingning Palace and will not let Little Grape go out to play, so as not to encounter danger."

"Then I will be relieved."

"I still have some things to deal with in the Imperial Study. If Your Majesty has no other instructions, I will leave first."

"Wait a moment."

Yun Zhining asked Qingzhu to bring a food box.

"I've tasted the cakes and dishes that Xiaokui and Luosu just made. They're all pretty good. Take them back to the emperor and make sure he eats more."

"Political matters are important, but health is also important. You must make sure he eats and goes to bed on time and takes care of himself. We, mother and son, all depend on him."

Dong Ling took the food box and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, your majesty. I will keep an eye on the emperor and make sure he eats and goes to bed on time, gets more exercise, gets sick less often, and takes good care of his health so that your majesty and the princes and princesses can rely on him for a long time."

"Then please."

After getting the desired results, Yun Zhining and Concubine Zhou stopped making a fuss, but Wei Tai couldn't stand it anymore.

He was injured and lying on the bed, unable to get up. His mother personally brought him three meals a day and fed him. But today it was already past dinner time and his mother had not come to bring him dinner yet.

He felt a little uneasy, so he asked someone to go over and take a look. That one look lasted forever.

"My Lord, something bad has happened. Madam, she, she, ..."

"What happened to my mother?"

"Madam, she's dead."

"What did you say? My mother is dead. This is impossible. This is absolutely impossible!"

Wei Tai struggled to get up but was stopped by the maid.

"Madam, her death was quite tragic. I think it would be better if you didn't go to see it."

"Otherwise, you really can't accept it."

"no!"

Wei Tai pushed the maid away, his eyes red.

"My mother died suddenly and tragically. As a son, how could I not go to see her and find out who killed her?"

"Take me there quickly, take me there quickly!"

Wei Tai was determined and the maid had no choice but to help him go to Mrs. Wei's room.

As soon as he entered, he smelled a strong smell of blood. Wei Tai let go of the maid and limped to the bed. He saw Madam Wei lying on the bed with blood splattered around her. Her neck was empty and her head was nowhere to be found.

"who is it?"

"Who did this?"

"Who did my mother offend? Why did she end up like this?"

"Why?"

He lay on Mrs. Wei, crying his heart out.

"This servant greets the Prince Consort."

As I was crying, a voice sounded in my ears.

Wei Tai looked up and saw Dong Ling coming, followed by a few people. The last person was holding a box in his hand, and all of them had sad expressions.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to him.

"Eunuch Dong Ling, what's in that box?"

Dong Ling didn't say anything, but glanced at the young eunuch, who immediately took the box over.

Wei Tai opened the box tremblingly, and inside was his mother's lost head.

At that moment, his heart stopped beating and his voice became very ethereal.

"who is it?"

"Who did it?"

Dong Ling sighed softly.

"Sir, please check who is not here first?"

"Who's not here?"

Wei Tai's brain started to work slowly and his rationality slowly returned.

"Welin?"

He grabbed the maid's hand and spoke in an urgent voice.

"Go find Weilin right now and ask her to come over here."

The maid nodded hurriedly and turned to go to Weilin's room.

After a while, she rushed in, looking very panicked.

"Miss Wei, she's gone!"

Wei Tai was stunned at first, then he laughed softly. His laughter became louder and louder, and his expression became more and more crazy.

"It turns out to be her!"

"So it really is her!"

"In order to survive, she actually killed her own mother with her own hands."

"That would have been fine, but she also chopped off my mother's head, leaving her with no peace of mind even after her death."

"it is good."

"Wei Lin, you are doing very well!"

"Very good!"

Everything went dark before his eyes and he passed out.
