"Yes, that's it."

Doctor Chen smelled it and nodded quickly.

"Tell me the truth, where did this thing come from?"

"Who instructed you to murder Ming Yuerong?"

"No one ordered me to do that. I just don't like her. If it weren't for her, Xiao Xiaoyi wouldn't have died."

"She harmed Xiao Xiaoyi, but not only was she not punished, she even had a child with him. This is unfair. I want revenge for Xiao Xiaoyi. I want her to pay for Xiao Xiaoyi's life."

"Yun Fulan has been dead for such a long time, but she can still stir up such a big storm in the palace. It's really abominable."

"Dong Ling, drag her out and beat her to death immediately."

"Also, pass down the decree that Yun Fulan caused trouble in the harem after her death, which seriously damaged the reputation of the Yun family and also affected Ming Yuerong's reputation. She is no longer worthy of being a member of the Yun family. The Yun family is ordered to remove her from the family. From now on, the Yun family will only have Ming Yuerong as a daughter."

"Mrs. An has taught her daughter well, so she is promoted to be the second wife. Since she is already the second wife, Ming Yuerong is the eldest daughter of the family, and Ming Yuerong's younger brother will naturally become the eldest son. Do you understand?"

"Your Majesty, rest assured that I will handle this matter properly."

"Wait a moment!"

Yun Zhining was not very satisfied with Qi Yejing's previous arrangement.

"This woman had ulterior motives and almost killed Little Grape. I am really angry. Even beating her to death in public cannot eliminate the hatred in my heart. Can the emperor hand this woman over to me to deal with so that I can calm down?"

"Of course you can, but you are pregnant now, so you should be careful not to get too much blood on your hands, so as not to affect the baby in your belly."

Seeing that Qi Yejing agreed, Yun Zhining smiled instantly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I knew you were the best to me."

Receiving the gratitude and charming glances from his beloved concubine, Qi Yejing's mood instantly improved.

She was just a slave who was destined to die. It was her blessing to be liked by the beloved concubine, and she should be grateful.

It was a good birthday party, but it almost turned into a murder. Madam Lin and the Second Prince were also very wronged. Qi Yejing felt sorry for their experience and rewarded them with a lot of things. Yun Zhining and Xiao Putao, the victims, got even more things.

However, Yun Zhining didn't care about these. She just wanted to find out why the palace maid wanted to poison her?

What do you mean she harmed Yun Fulan and wanted her to pay for Yun Fulan's life?

She didn't believe that Yun Fulan, who was already dead, could have such a great influence.

Besides, even if the palace maid really wanted to avenge Yun Fulan, she should have done it earlier. It has been half a year and she just remembered it. Isn’t it a bit late?

Since she didn't avenge Yun Fulan immediately, it proved that she didn't really want to seek justice for Yun Fulan. If that's the case, then how could she have the nerve to use Yun Fulan as a cover?

There must be something fishy going on here!

She wanted to see who was behind her?

Late at night, when everyone was asleep, Yun Zhining quietly left Qingning Palace and headed for Ye Ting.

The palace maid was currently being held in the Ye Ting torture chamber and was under special guard. She had received orders long ago and was standing guard outside. As soon as she saw Yun Zhining, she went up to her.

"Meet Lady Yuerong."

"No gift."

"What about people?"

"He's tied up inside, waiting for the queen to come."

"Then go in."

"Okay, please, Madam."

The guard led Yun Zhining in and left tactfully. Yun Zhining stared at the palace maid for a while before slowly speaking.

"Who sent you to poison me?"

"Dear Lady Yue Rong already knows, why are you asking me?"

"If your answer is Yun Fulan, then I advise you to think it over carefully before you speak, because my patience is limited."

"I usually only give people three chances. You've already used up one chance in Changchun Palace, so there are two chances left. If you don't seize these two chances, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Yun Zhining's voice was not loud, but every word she spoke was very heavy.

"Although I am not as capable as the queen, the two concubines, and the two ladies, it should not be a problem for me to embarrass your family."

"If I remember correctly, your brother will take the imperial examination next year. If I insist on pursuing your fault, what will be his fate?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the palace maid's expression instantly turned crazy.

"No, Ming Yuerong, you can't do this."

"This is only my fault. It has nothing to do with my brother. You can't make things difficult for him, and you can't stop him from taking the imperial examination."

She grew up in a poor family, and her family became even more financially strained after her younger brother was born. She had no choice but to enter the palace and become a maid.

With one less mouth to feed at home, there were an extra ten taels of silver each year. With the money, her parents started a small business, and their lives gradually improved. They also brought up their younger brother very well. He will take part in the imperial examination next year. If he gets a good ranking, he may be able to become a minor official, and she will be the official's biological sister.

But Mingyue Rongruo implicated her younger brother because of this incident. All she needed to do was mention it to the emperor, and her younger brother would have no future.

But the reason why she agreed to assassinate Ming Yuerong was because the queen promised to help her brother. If she told Ming Yuerong the truth, wouldn't it be in vain?

This is how to do?

The palace maid was very conflicted, which indirectly proved how important her brother was to her, and Yun Zhining became more convinced of her judgment.

Her brother must be a breakthrough.

Maybe this incident was caused by her brother.

"Have you thought clearly?"

"Think it through. The person who ordered me is..."

As soon as she lip-synced, a needle as thin as an ox hair flew in from the door and pierced straight into her heart, killing her instantly.

Yun Zhining quickly chased after him, but the man had already disappeared.

Her face looked particularly ugly.

Just when they were about to find out who was behind this, the palace maid was killed by an injection. Yun Zhining was so angry that she didn't sleep well the whole night. When she woke up the next morning, her complexion was very bad, her temper was very bad, and she also felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen.

She sent Qingzhu to Fengyi Palace to ask for leave, and asked Xiaokui to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask Doctor Chen to come and take her pulse and check on Xiao Pu Tao's condition.

"The eldest princess is fine, your majesty, don't worry. But you are angry and depressed, and the situation is not good. You should calm down. No matter what happened, wait until after the baby is born."

"I would like to wait until after I give birth, but you have seen how much those people in the harem hate me. If I don't do something, not to mention the baby in my belly, even my life will be in danger."

"If I were gone, Little Grape would definitely be given to someone else to raise. I wouldn't be able to rest in peace even in my grave."

Doctor Chen shook his head helplessly.

"Don't worry, Madam. With your current status and position, Concubine Wende will definitely not be able to snatch the eldest princess away from you."

"You just need to give birth to the baby in your belly with peace of mind. The emperor and I will escort you with the rest."

Yun Zhining was just about to sigh that it was great to have him when her expression changed.

"what did you just say?"
