Concubine Li always felt something was wrong.

Xie Wan Ning bowed slightly towards Concubine Li, and her voice and tone became more serious: "Empress Li is so kind, why don't you...be a good person to the end."

Concubine Li looked at Xie Wanning's expression and became even more alert. She frowned calmly, "What do you mean?"

"Since Concubine Li has mentioned the marriage between me and the virtuous king today, why don't you... help me so that I can marry the virtuous king with peace of mind!" Xie Wan Ning looked at Concubine Li.

Concubine Li frowned. "I've already mentioned this, and you've seen it. Given your current situation... marrying the virtuous king is impossible."

Concubine Li frowned and looked at Xie Wanning with a hint of disgust.

Xie Wan Ning's expression also changed slightly: "Empress Li, didn't you set up this scheme to make me marry the virtuous king?"

"Now things are going against your wishes. If you don't persist, aren't you afraid that the truth will be revealed and the Second Prince will be implicated?"

When Concubine Li heard what Xie Wanning said, her face immediately darkened and she looked at Xie Wanning coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Concubine Li looked around nervously and gave a wink to the nanny she trusted.

The two maids immediately understood what was going on and walked towards Xie Wan Ning, surrounding her.

Xie Wan Ning frowned when she saw that things were not going well. "What is Concubine Li doing?"

Concubine Li glanced at Xie Wanning and said, "Miss Xie, please come back to my palace and we'll talk slowly."

A hint of murderous intent flashed across Concubine Li's eyes!

Xie Wan Ning felt that something was wrong and swallowed her saliva: "Your Majesty, please say it here. If you go back to your palace, it will arouse suspicion."

Concubine Li snorted coldly and glanced at the two maids: "Take the person back!"

As she spoke, Concubine Li walked towards her palace.

The two maids beside her sneered, "Miss Xie, let's go!"

As they spoke, one of them twisted Xie Wan Ning's hand, the other covered her mouth, and dragged her to Concubine Li's palace, following behind Concubine Li.

Xie Wan Ning panicked and started shouting "Hmm" and "Ahh", but it was no use!

Those two maids were very strong and cruel, and it was obvious that they had done this kind of thing many times.

One of them dragged her, and the other covered her mouth and pinched Xie Wan Ning hard several times.

Xie Wan Ning's carefully combed hair was already messy, but she couldn't struggle free.

The two maids held her with their hands like pliers, and Xie Wan Ning couldn't move at all!

At this moment, I vaguely felt fear.

After a while, Xie Wan Ning was dragged into Concubine Li's palace.

As soon as we entered, the palace door was closed and locked!

After entering the hall, Xie Wan Ning was forced to her knees by two maids. Although they released her mouth, they still held down her hands, forcing her to kneel and unable to move!

Xie Wan Ning was also a little afraid at this moment, but when she looked at Concubine Li, she felt unwilling to give in. She gritted her teeth and asked, "What is your Majesty doing?"

Concubine Li snorted coldly and glanced at the palace maid beside her.

The palace maid sneered, suddenly took a step forward, and slapped Xie Wanning in the face!

Xie Wan Ning had been fed medicine during this period, and her mind was already a little hazy.

After this slap, I felt a buzzing sound in my head and felt dizzy!

"Your Majesty hit me? The palace banquet is still going on. Isn't Your Majesty afraid that the Xie family will hold you accountable?" Xie Wan Ning looked at Concubine Li, her eyes full of anger.

Concubine Li sneered, "Hold me accountable? You offended me, had an affair with a palace guard, and even broke into my palace to steal the imperial gifts. Even if I kill you, no one will hold you accountable!"

This idiot can't be kept.

What Concubine Li is more worried about now is...whether Xie Wan Ning will implicate her, and how much does she know!

After hearing what Concubine Li said, Xie Wan Ning swallowed her saliva and looked at Concubine Li with even more horror: "Your Majesty wants to kill and silence me?"

Concubine Li looked at her and sneered, "So what? Do you really think the Xie family will stand up for an adopted daughter like you?"

"Then I will simply pin the blame on you, expose your origins, and pin the baby swap incident on your mother. You and your daughter will then deserve to die!"

Xie Wan Ning was even more frightened and regretted for being too impulsive.

But due to the medication she has been taking during this period, she is sometimes lucid and sometimes irritable, and she can no longer tell the difference.

Xie Wan Ning shook her head, trying to sober herself up. She looked at Concubine Li and sneered, "Your Majesty, do you think I dare to come to you so brazenly? I know all your secrets!"

"If anything happens to me, the Queen will be doomed too!"

"If your Majesty is willing to help me... I only need to marry the virtuous king, and from now on, we will have nothing to do with each other!"

Concubine Li sneered and looked at Xie Wanning with a mocking expression: "You still dare to threaten me? I'm curious, what are you capable of!"

Xie Wan Ning didn't waste any more time talking to Concubine Li. She looked at her coldly and said, "I already know all of your secrets!"

"I already know where you're hiding in that account book. If my people still can't find me in half an hour, then Your Majesty will be doomed along with me."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Concubine Li sneered, but there was no panic in her eyes: "I thought you were very smart, but you are just a little clever!"

"The account book can be said to belong to anyone, but you are framing me, which is an even greater crime! No one would dare to say anything even if you were beaten to death."

Xie Wan Ning's expression changed again. She looked at Concubine Li uneasily, not knowing how to refute for a moment.

Concubine Li's voice softened again: "Who did you give the account book to? Tell me now and return it to me. I can help you!"

Xie Wan Ning was a little surprised by what Concubine Li said. She looked at Concubine Li with a hint of anticipation in her eyes, "Is what the Queen said true?"

"Of course it's true."

Concubine Li looked at Xie Wanning and said, "I just don't like people threatening me."

Xie Wan Ning looked at Concubine Li, not being able to understand what she was saying for a moment.

Concubine Li said, "Tell me, how can I help you?"

Xie Wanning calmed down and said to Concubine Li, "I believe that besides me, there must have been other babies that Her Majesty prepared back then."

"Your Highness wants you to deal with those people, or at least prevent them from appearing in the capital."

"Please ask His Majesty to grant me a marriage with the virtuous king!"

"Those people didn't show up, and there's no evidence. Even if I'm the adopted daughter of the Xie family, my status is still more noble than Ye Nanyue's!"

"Is that it?" asked Concubine Li.

Xie Wanning: "Please grant me your blessing, Madam!"

"Oh...then where did you put my account book?" Concubine Li suppressed her temper and asked Xie Wanning with almost gritted teeth.

Xie Wan Ning was planning to give that thing to Lu Huaiyang. She gritted her teeth and said to Concubine Li, "If your Majesty can help me get it done... I will destroy the account book myself."

Xie Wan Ning looked at Concubine Li with a stubborn look in her eyes: "I can't give it to Your Majesty for the time being, lest Your Majesty doesn't deal with the people according to the account book, which would be disadvantageous to this minister."

"Okay, very good." Concubine Li was almost laughing out of anger: "You really dare to threaten me."

Concubine Li glanced at the two maids behind her and said, "Drag her out and beat her to death!"
