Although Consort Wuya reacted quickly, her words were still noticed.

When asked the question by the Empress Dowager, Uya hesitated and stammered.

She didn't know how to explain it.

She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would say something she shouldn't, which would attract the questioning gazes of the Empress Dowager and the others.

The Empress Dowager did not have the patience to wait for Consort Wuya to speak.

She looked at Consort Wuya kneeling on the ground, her lower body still bleeding profusely, and said, "Since you're unwilling to talk about it now, then you don't need to talk about it in the future."

"I don't have that much time to waste with you."

Without needing to ask further, the Empress Dowager had already discerned the problem from Consort Wuya's attitude.

The Empress Dowager said to the Empress, "If Consort Wuya cannot protect the prince, then there is no need for her to protect him in the future."

"Consort Tong, I will have the Emperor register Yinzhen's imperial edict under your name!"

Consort Tong's eyes widened in shock upon hearing the Empress Dowager's words.

Her usually aloof face suddenly became more adorable.

She knew that the Empress Dowager had never really liked her, and always felt that the Emperor had been too indulgent towards the Tong family.

I never expected that the Empress Dowager would bring up the matter of replacing the jade tablets.

After the jade tablet was changed, Yinzhen would henceforth be a child of the Tong family.

Even if she is physically weak and cannot have children, she will still have someone to rely on in the future.

She quickly came to her senses and excitedly thanked the Empress Dowager.

Meanwhile, the face of the kneeling noblewoman, Uya, grew increasingly pale.

Before her rebirth, she was still considered the birth mother on Yinzhen's jade tablet. Unexpectedly, her second life was not as good as her previous one. What was the point of her rebirth?

She never admits defeat.

Her eyes were red and swollen as she looked at the Empress Dowager before her with a wronged expression. "Empress Dowager, Yinzhen was born from a near-death experience, how could you..."

Before Consort Wuya could finish speaking, the Empress frowned and interrupted her with a hint of warning, "The Empress Dowager has her reasons for making this decision. Consort Wuya should only express her gratitude and should not criticize the Empress Dowager!"

"Consort Wuya has just lost her unborn child and needs to take good care of her health. Naturally, she doesn't have the extra energy to take care of other children. Yinzhen was originally raised by Consort Tong's side, and now it's just a matter of changing the jade tablet. Consort Wuya doesn't need to worry too much about it."

Everyone in the palace knows that if the jade tablet is changed, this child will truly have no connection with them in the future!

Noble Lady Wuya was unwilling to accept it.

She would rather Yinzhen have died by her own hand than have him become Consort Tong's child.

“Yinzhen was born to me, and even if he dies, he must be recorded on my jade tablet.”

When Consort Wuya spoke, her expression was extremely ferocious.

The Empress Dowager watched coldly as Uya went mad.

It's utterly absurd for a mere nobleman to presume to decide the prince's fate.

Could it be that she's mistaking the Aisin Gioro family's empire for the Uya family's?

With such audacity, it's not impossible that they would use a prince to frame Yue'er.

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager didn't even want to look at the stubborn Consort Wuya, and instructed the Empress, "Remember to tell the Emperor what I mean!"

After saying those words, Consort Wuya immediately calmed down.

But once words are spoken, they are like water spilled—they cannot be taken back.

Since Consort Wuya was not fortunate enough to give birth to a prince, the Empress Dowager did not want to waste any more time here. She immediately said, "Yue'er has not yet recovered. The Empress should take Yue'er back to the palace. Consort Tong will take care of things here!"

After giving her instructions in a few words, the Empress Dowager left the side hall of Chengqian Palace with Sumalagu.

Consort Wuya grabbed the Empress's hand and pleaded desperately, "Your Majesty, I have just lost two children, and I cannot lose Yinzhen as well. Please have mercy on me, Your Majesty!"

The Empress pushed Consort Wuya away with a cold, hard movement, and grabbed her own hand.

A person who slanders his own daughter actually wants his help.

That's absolutely ridiculous!

If the Empress Dowager hadn't brought it up herself, she would have inevitably mentioned it to His Majesty as well.

This saves a lot of trouble, saving me the trouble of asking!

"The Empress Dowager's words are law and I cannot change them. If Consort Wuya has other ideas, she should go and see His Majesty!"

Uya Guiren's face turned ashen, and a surge of urge to commit suicide and start over arose in her heart.

But she was afraid that if she died, she would not have a chance to be reborn, so she could only bite her lip tightly, her frail body trembling slightly, in order to keep her emotions calm.

Seeing Consort Wuya's expression, the Empress smiled with a hint of mockery, saying, "However, Consort Wuya has always been very resourceful. Perhaps she can come up with a solution without even going to His Majesty!"

Consort Wuya looked thoughtful upon hearing the Empress's words.

They were clearly plotting something bad.

The Empress didn't even glance at Consort Wuya, but nodded to Consort Tong, picked up her daughter, and walked out of Chengqian Palace.

[Congratulations, host! You have thwarted Noble Lady Wuya's scheme and have earned 1200 points.]

Mu Yue felt that her body had improved a lot since the news came out.

She glanced at the points balance in the system space.

Before I knew it, I had accumulated quite a few points.

You are only 500 points away from reaching 5000 points.

There are only three months left until the Empress Dowager's birthday.

She needs to find a way to accumulate 5000 points before her mother's birthday.

Only in this way can you obtain the desired bracelet that can protect against toxins.

Mu Yue remembered that she could earn a lot of points every time she was involved with Consort Wuya.

Perhaps she could try sending Consort Wuya directly to the Cold Palace; that would surely earn her enough points.

She was secretly making plans.

The Empress noticed that Mu Yue seemed a little distracted, and she immediately asked with some concern, "What is Yue'er thinking about?"

Thinking of her plans, Mu Yue immediately looked at the Empress with a worried expression and asked, "Your Majesty, what will become of Consort Wuya in the future?"

The Empress Dowager did not specify the punishment that Consort Wuya should receive today.

Yinzhen was simply placed under the name of Consort Tong.

If Consort Wuya finds a suitable opportunity to gain the Emperor's favor, then this matter will certainly change.

Although the Emperor is currently very cold towards Consort Wuya, who knows if Consort Wuya might have other ideas!

The Empress was unaware of Mu Yue's thoughts.

Hearing the worry in Mu Yue's tone, the Empress felt that Mu Yue was kind-hearted and worried about Consort Wuya.

She gently patted Mu Yue's head and said softly, "Yue'er, don't worry. Consort Wuya will be fine, but she will never have the chance to appear in front of you again."

The Empress knew how much the Emperor valued the imperial heir.

Presumably, the events of today have already been reported to the Emperor in detail.

The best outcome for Consort Wuya was to be sent to the Cold Palace.

Perhaps this person will disappear from the palace in the future!

Mu Yue was unaware of the Empress's thoughts, and was secretly calculating how to gain more points from Consort Wuya.
