The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it."

Seeing that Qi Yejing was so vicious that he wanted to kill someone, Dong Ling quickly shut up.

"What about the things that Concubine Yi brought?"

"After falling like that, of course we have to throw it away."

Qi Yejing rolled his eyes at him and turned to walk inside.

After taking two steps, he turned back.

"Pick some and see if there's anything else to eat?"

"Empress Yi has worked hard all morning, and her kindness cannot be wasted."

Dong Ling laughed immediately.

She rolled her eyes at him and laughed even more happily.

On the way back, Yun Zhining remained silent. Qingzhu didn't dare to speak for fear of angering her. Hao Bin also kept her mouth tightly shut, not daring to say a word.

When they were almost at the fork in the road, Hao Bin finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Thank you for what happened this morning, Your Majesty. However, the reason why I am helping Your Majesty is that I also want to help my mother accumulate blessings."

"If your majesty feels bad, please reward me with something, and say a few good words for me in front of Majesty Zhou, and ask the imperial kitchen to send me more delicious dishes, including some meat dishes. I will be very grateful."

"As for the emperor's favor, I will do my best to win it, so there is no need for you to worry too much."

"If I implicate your majesty, I won't have anyone to save me if something happens to me in the future."

Yun Zhining stared at her for a while, then sighed softly.

"Princess Hao, no matter what your purpose is in saving me, I will remember this kindness."

"If you need anything in the future, I will do my best to help you."

"If I can get a promise from your majesty, my efforts will not be in vain."

"I will go back first. I will go to Qingning Palace to pay my respects to Her Majesty another day."

"Okay, take care."

After watching her leave, Yun Zhining's expression finally eased a little.

But his brows were still furrowed.

"Qingzhu, did you feel that there was something wrong with the emperor just now?"

"It's not just wrong, it's very wrong."

"Let's not talk about Concubine Hao for now. You worked so hard to prepare a breakfast, but the emperor not only refused to eat it, but also drove you away."

"If it was when you first entered the palace, I would understand, but now, it is very strange."

"And I noticed that when the emperor scolded you, he felt bad. When you fell, his first reaction was to rush over to help you up, but for some reason, he controlled his behavior."

"I really can't figure it out."

"Since you can't figure it out, find someone to ask."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qingzhu's eyes lit up instantly.

"My lady, have you come up with a good idea?"

Yun Zhining hooked her finger and whispered a few words into her ear.

After hearing this, Qingzhu's lips curled up.

"Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely handle this matter properly."

Ever since what happened yesterday, Qi Yejing has been in a very bad mood. In the morning, everyone in the imperial study was scolded, with Dong Ling being the first to bear the brunt.

He really couldn't stand it anymore, so he made an excuse to go to the imperial kitchen to get lunch and hid away.

He walked slowly along the way, wishing time would stop at this moment forever, so that he wouldn't have to go back and wouldn't have to be scolded.

When passing by the rockery, he heard someone calling him. He turned around but saw no one.

Strange, could it be that he just hallucinated?

Just as he was about to turn around, he was hit on the head and fainted instantly.

"Snapped!"

A bucket of well water was poured on him, he shivered and woke up instantly.

Then he saw two familiar faces.

"Empress Yi, Qingzhu, what are you doing?"

Yun Zhining's smile was particularly sinister.

"Dong Ling, are you hiding something from me?"

"How is that possible? Even if you give me a million guts, I would not dare to deceive you."

Dong Ling replied with a smile while secretly accumulating internal strength, trying to break through the ropes and escape from the predicament.

But he just couldn't gather his inner strength. It was early February and the weather was quite cold, but he actually broke out in a sweat.

Yun Zhining covered her mouth and laughed when she saw this.

“Dong Ling, I know you are good at martial arts, so as soon as I brought you back, I fed you a pill that can dissipate your internal energy.”

"If you know what's best for you, just stay here and be good. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Dong Ling shuddered, and his smile became much more restrained.

"My queen, if the emperor knew about this, he would definitely be angry."

"Don't worry, the pill will only be effective for three hours. Once the time is up, your internal energy will naturally return. It won't be reduced at all, and it won't affect your work for the emperor."

Dong Ling breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.

As long as his inner strength can come back, it won't be a big problem.

Now that his major worry was gone, his mentality became much calmer.

"We are not strangers. Just say whatever you want to say. Don't beat around the bush and waste each other's time."

"Okay, since Eunuch Dong Ling has come straight to the point, I won't beat around the bush."

"What happened yesterday? Why did the emperor treat me like that today?"

"this,……"

"Your Majesty, could you please change the question? I really don't dare to answer this question. If the Emperor knew, he would definitely kill me."

"Well, since you refuse to tell the truth, I will have to resort to special means."

I originally thought that the Zhenyan Pill would all be used on the concubines in the harem or the palace maids and eunuchs who served them, but I never expected that one day it would be used on Dong Ling. Maybe this is fate.

Yun Zhining gave a wink, and Qingzhu immediately stepped forward, pried open Dong Ling's mouth, and fed him the Zhenyan Pill.

Dong Ling tried hard not to swallow it, but who would have thought that the pill would melt in his mouth.

As the pill disappeared, Dong Ling told the whole story.

Yesterday, the Queen sent someone to deliver a letter to Qi Yejing, saying that she suspected someone had connections with Prince Rong and hoped to have a face-to-face meeting with Qi Yejing.

Who knew that after Qi Yejing went there, he fell into her trap.

She put that dirty medicine in the tea, Qi Yejing was caught off guard and fell into the trap.

The drug was extremely strong. Qi Yejing was conscious but he could not control his body. He could only watch himself favor the queen.

He was so disgusted that he didn't eat all day and didn't sleep well at night. This morning when he was attending the morning court, Prime Minister Zhang even made trouble for him, so he was in a particularly bad mood when he left the court.

If it were someone else, he would have been demoted and confined to his room by now. Only Yun Zhining would make him merciful and unwilling to hurt her.

After saying the last word, Dong Ling's head drooped.

This time it's really over.

If the Emperor knew that he had told Concubine Yi the whole story without missing a word, he would definitely die.

"Your Majesty, if I am executed by the Emperor, please help me collect my body because I told you the truth before I died. Don't let my body be exposed in the wilderness."

"Ok?"
