Xu Lan led the way, and Zhi Guiren entered the main hall with the help of Ah Xun. Lu Huiling was sitting on the front seat, not looking up at her as if unintentionally, pretending that she didn't see it.

Zhi Guiren walked in and saw that Lu Huiling just didn't raise her head to look at her. She felt arrogant and arrogant again. She always felt that Lu Huiling was looking down on her on purpose.

But my status is lower than that of Lu Huiling. No matter how upset I am, no matter how dissatisfied Lu Huiling is, I still have to step forward, bend my knees and bow my head in salute.

"My concubine sends my regards to Concubine Ming. May Concubine Ming be blessed with peace and prosperity." Nobleman Zhi stepped forward and slowly bowed his knee to Lu Huiling, who was sitting on the seat with his head lowered and playing with his sleeves.

Xu Lan walked around them, walked close to the wall and walked to Concubine Ming's side. She leaned over and said in a low voice: "Concubine, Mr. Zhe is here."

In this way, Lu Huiling slowly raised his head, and his every move was unruly and domineering, which made Zhi Guixin who didn't like Lu Huiling feel annoyed, and he didn't know why Lu Huiling suddenly wanted to do this.

Came to find her.

"Hey, Mr. Zhe is here. Look at this look in my eyes, why didn't you see it?" Lu Huiling smiled, with a false look on his face, "Get up, Xu Lan, give Mr. Zhe some tea."

Ah Xun then slowly helped Zhi Guiren to stand up. She had bent her knees for too long. Zhi Guiren had not eaten for a long time, so she couldn't help but stumbled. Ah Xun could hardly support her.

"Oh, Mr. Zhi, please slow down." Lu Huiling said deliberately making a fuss.

Before Mr. Zhi came, Lu Huiling knew that Mr. Zhi had been sitting in Lanyuan Pavilion crying all day long, worrying about his father and brothers.

Tsukuru had dressed up, but underneath that makeup and makeup, he could not hide his haggard appearance.

After Mr. Zhi sat down, Lu Huiling said with a smile: "If you go by the title of concubine, you should call me sister, but if you look at the time and age you entered the palace, I should call you sister."

, I’m really confused now.”

Zhi Guiren raised his head and looked at Lu Huiling in surprise. Although he had not had much contact with her, he also knew that Lu Huiling was not a kind person. Now that he was deliberately trying to get close to him, there must be something going on.

"I am very frightened. Concubine Ming can call you whatever you want." Mr. Zhi said humbly.

Lu Huiling looked at Guiren Zhi and smiled. She could clearly feel that Guiren Zhi was a little hostile and alienated towards her. She also knew in her heart that Guiren Zhi was very dissatisfied with her, but Lu Huiling could guarantee that when she said what she wanted to say

After those words, Zhi Guiren should burst into tears of gratitude towards her, as if he were facing his reborn parents.

"Well, since you and I are called sisters, then I will call you sister, right? I don't know my sister's maiden name yet." Lu Huiling said knowingly.

From these words alone, Zhi Guiren could feel Lu Huiling's contempt. She was a person who spoke lightly, but now she doesn't even know her maiden name.

"I dare not insult the golden ears of my concubine with my concubine's nickname. Just call me Yin Zhu." Guiren Zhi said to Lu Huiling with a forced smile.

"Yin Zhu, what a good name." Lu Huiling smiled, "Since sister Yin Zhu is older than me, I will respectfully call you sister."

"I don't dare to take it. If I don't mind it, just call me my concubine Yin Zhe." Zhi Guiren quickly shook his head and waved his hands, looking flattered.

Lu Huiling looked at her and smiled, then pretended to think deeply for a while and said, "Sister Yin Zhe, is your father the fifth-grade Lord Yin of Thousand Households?"

Lu Huiling pretended to be surprised, as if she had just learned that the two were father and daughter, but in her heart, the relationship between the harem and the court had already been firmly remembered in her mind.

I'm afraid that one day I'll be able to use this network of connections. Isn't this about to work?

When Noble Lady Zhi heard Lu Huiling mentioning her father accidentally, she couldn't help but feel a twitch in her heart. She knew that Lu Huiling often went to the Qinzheng Palace to serve the emperor and review memorials. If she saw her father's name intentionally or unintentionally, that would be normal.

However, recently, my father and the officials who had embezzled with my father had frequently submitted documents and piled them in front of the Emperor's case for several days in a row.

"Exactly. It's hard for your Majesty to remember it." Zhi Guiren suppressed the sadness in his heart and admitted with an expressionless face, neither humble nor overbearing.

Lu Huiling pretended to be regretful and shook her head, sighed and said: "Really, if something like this happened to Master Yin Qianhu, Sister Yin Zhe must also feel bad. My father came to the palace to see me these days.

At that time, my father's name was also mentioned. Sister Yin Zhe also knew that such a big thing happened in the court. As the prime minister, my father naturally had to do it personally. But my father said that all this still needs to be investigated. If

After checking, it was found that the amount was not large, so he could only be regarded as an accomplice. He only took off the black gauze hat, so that the head on his neck would not fall to the ground... But I don’t know how much the father of Yin Zhe’s sister had embezzled? If this palace can

Wherever you help, sister, please don't be polite. You and I are sisters. If you need anything, just tell me. Why bother yourself?"

Lu Huiling's words were high-sounding, as if the two had known each other for many years and had been sisters who had been together for a long time.

Lu Huiling's words of sisterly love did not impress Zhi Guiren, but when Lu Huiling said that her father was being investigated and sentenced, all the pain in her heart surged forward and she couldn't suppress it. She thought of her mother.

When they entered the palace to see themselves, they had a humble and pleading attitude and eyes, hoping that she could help him to intercede in front of the emperor. They put all their hopes on Zhi Guiren alone, but they didn't know that she was also struggling in the palace.

Driven by all kinds of emotions, she couldn't help crying.

Behind her, Ah Xun saw her master crying, in front of Concubine Ming, and couldn't help but panic. She quickly took out her handkerchief to wipe the tears of Lord Zhe.

Lu Huiling watched all this with a calm face. She was not surprised by this. Instead, it was expected and taken for granted. She was waiting for the moment when Zhi Guiren collapsed emotionally and raised her head to face a family force.

When someone is strong and able to speak well in front of the emperor, when people are on the verge of despair, they will grab the life-saving straw in front of them.

Lu Huiling sat up straight, her eyes never leaving Guiren Zhi's body for a moment. She was waiting for Guiren Zhi to say his plea to her personally.

Xu Lan stood aside, watching Guiren Zhi lowering her head and crying, and then looking at the calm look on Concubine Ming's face. She couldn't help but feel worried and scared. She didn't know what would happen next.

After Zhi Guiren cried for a while, he raised his head and stood up, walked to Lu Huiling, and knelt down straight.

Her move frightened everyone present.

Ah Xun didn't know why, but seeing his master kneeling down, he quickly knelt behind Zhi Guiren and lowered his body.

Xu Lan hurriedly stepped forward to help Mr. Zhi, but when she saw that Concubine Ming's expression remained calm and she had stretched out her hand, she forcefully took it back.

Zhi Guiren's face was full of tears, and her eyes revealed despair and helplessness. She no longer wanted to guess what Lu Huiling would ask her to do. At the moment, she just wanted to do her best to save her family.

Zhi Guiren knew in her heart that according to the huge amount of money her father had embezzled, she was afraid that everyone would be executed. However, Zhi Guiren couldn't bear it in her heart. She desperately wanted to help her father make up for the shortfall.

However, I pawned and sold all the valuable things in Lanyuan Pavilion, hoping to make up for some shortfalls before my father was found. However, the small amount of money was just a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning in terms of my father's corruption hole.

However, after my father embezzled money, he paid off all his gambling debts. After that, he gambled non-stop. Although he was from a fifth-grade Qian family in Beijing, and he was a Beijing official, he was quite prestigious, but the family really had no money.

I don’t know how my mother survived these years.

When Zhi Guiren thought of this, he couldn't help crying.

Lu Huiling pretended to be surprised and stared at Mr. Zhi with wide eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up: "Sister Yin Zhe, what are you doing? I call you sister, why did you give me this big gift?

?If something happens, just get up and say it. I can't bear you like this."

Zhi Guiren refused to get up. He looked at Lu Huiling with red eyes from crying and said, "Ming Fei, please save the lives of my concubine and my family!"

After saying that, he leaned over and kowtowed.

His posture was humble, and he was completely different from the arrogant and arrogant person he saw when he entered.

"What did Sister Yin Zhi say? You get up first and then talk about it." Lu Huiling still pretended to be a good person and supported Zhi Guiren, then turned to look at Xu Lan, "What are you still standing there for? Quickly help Zhe

Sir, rise up."

After hearing this, Xu Lan hurriedly stepped forward to hold Guiren Zhi's hand, and Kankan helped her up. Ah Xun also hurriedly stepped forward to support his master, and together with Xu Lan helped Guizhi Zhi to the seat.

Guiren Zhi was sitting on her seat, still crying. She looked at Lu Huiling and prayed pitifully: "Empress, my concubine's father has done something wrong, which is irreversible. But as the daughter of two elders, I

I really can’t bear to see them leave this world without enjoying the happiness of family relationship, leaving me alone and alone..."

When Lu Huiling listened to Mr. Zhe's words, she also had a look of great sadness on her face, and her eyes slowly became moist, as if she would cry with Mr. Zhe in the next second.

When Mr. Zhi said this, he stood up and knelt down on the ground, and said to Lu Huiling: "I know that the empress has great magical powers and is very favored by the emperor. I have tried every means, but still can't do anything, but if there is

For your help, I only need to speak to Prime Minister Lu to save the lives of my concubine and my family. There is no need for glory and wealth, I just want them to live...My concubine, I beg you..."
