Wei Jingxuan put down her hands and sobbed: "Ms. Qi, it was indeed closed at first, but later I felt a little bored, so I opened it, otherwise I would not have run out."
Cuizhu nodded at the side and said: "Yes, when the slave came over, the door was indeed open. The imperial concubine and Miss A Luo were standing by the door. At that time... they were all panicked. It took a while before the imperial concubine called.
Miss A'luo went to ask for Dr. Zhou's help."
Concubine Yu took over and said: "If Jingxuan hadn't been afraid that the snake would hurt the imperial concubine, the child would not have been lost. This kind of heart is really commendable, and I really admire it."
A Luo said: "Miss Wei, you said you ran out to catch a snake. Why did this slave never see the snake?"
Wei Jingxuan shook her head and said blankly: "I...I don't know, I fell down before I could catch the snake. I think the snake took the opportunity to run away." After saying that, she suddenly stared at A Luo with some excitement.
: "Why do you ask that? Do you suspect me of lying? Why would I do this? Would I lie to my child?
Or do you think I should just watch that snake bite the imperial concubine?" She said in a trembling voice: "That's my own flesh and blood, how could I do this? You...you've gone too far!"
Finally, she was struggling to climb off the bed, but Hongli stopped her and said, "A Luo just asked casually. You think too much."
"Your Majesty, I am already very sad to lose this child, but she still doubts me like this, slave..." She said with a heartbroken look on her face: "I really can't accept it!"
Concubine Yu said: "Your Majesty, I also believe that Jingxuan would not tell such a lie. Furthermore, if this were not the case, I really can't think of a reason why Jingxuan would run out without regard to safety; it's just that the Imperial Concubine and
A Luo has never seen the snake, so he is confused."
Hongli nodded slightly and said to the excited Wei Jingxuan: "A Luo just said it casually, without any intention. Don't hold on to it." After hearing Wei Jingxuan's story about the snake, Hongli waited.
His attitude is much gentler than before.
"Yes, I obey the order." Wei Jingxuan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. When it seemed that nothing happened, she suddenly cried again and sobbed: "But I am really... really sad, Your Majesty.
, I miss that child so much, do you think I did something wrong?"
She looked pitiful and helpless. Hongli hesitated for a moment, patted her hand and said: "You did nothing wrong. On the contrary, you did a good job!"
Wei Jingxuan took advantage of the situation and grabbed Hongli's hand, crying uncontrollably, but Hongli did not pull away and let her hold it.
Xianyue looked at all this coldly, and in a blink of an eye, Wei Jingxuan became her savior, which was really ironic; Wei Jingxuan... was really smart, knowing that she could not tell the truth, and knowing that Hongli valued her very much, so she

However, he came up with such a way to save her and lose the child; in this way, the meaning of her losing the child would be much greater, and Hongli would be particularly sympathetic to her because of this. This loophole was really well exploited.
, even she ignored it.
Concubine Yu walked to her side and said: "Fortunately, Jingxuan was here this time, so the empress was not in danger. But Jingxuan is so pitiful. A good child was lost like this. Alas, it is such a pity. If she was born
Come down, maybe it's a little brother."
Xianyue looked at her and said coldly: "Yes, it's really a pity."
A smile flashed across Concubine Yu's lips, and she said, "Excuse me, my concubine, why do you think your Majesty is so indifferent to this matter?"
Facing her gaze, Xianyue's lips curved up, and she slowly revealed a smile, "How could it be possible? I'm very grateful to Jingxuan. I really didn't expect that she would be so concerned about my safety. She would even sacrifice her children for my sake."
No, I feel really sorry for this.
I don't want to go." After that, she walked up to Wei Jingxuan and said with a sad face: "You too, even if there is a snake, you should tell A Luo and others to catch it, how can you do it yourself? You are
Do you intend to make me miserable for the rest of my life?"
Wei Jingxuan burst into tears and said: "My slave... I didn't want to do this. I didn't think too much about it at that time. I just... I just thought that I couldn't let... that snake hurt my empress. I never thought that..."
Xianyue bent over and stroked her tear-stained cheek and said: "You girl, you are so reckless. Even if I get bitten, it doesn't matter. The royal blood is the most important thing." The cold armor caressed Wei Jingxuan in the same way.
The cold cheek made her have countless tiny pimples, and she resisted the urge to escape.
"Your Majesty, Miss Wei will be served by Cuizhu here. I will accompany you back. If you are not at ease, ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send another palace servant to wait on you."
Hongli nodded and said: "Okay, the imperial concubine will be responsible for this matter. In addition, let the Ministry of Internal Affairs send more nourishing products to help her have a good confinement period."
When Hongli was about to leave, Concubine Yu suddenly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask for a favor for Jingxuan."
Hongli stopped and lowered his eyes: "What kind of grace?"
"Jingxuan lost her child this time to save the imperial concubine. Her feelings are commendable and her heart is encouraged, so I sincerely ask the emperor to grant her grace."
Faced with Concubine Yu's words, Xiayue said, "What kind of grace does Concubine Yu hope to bestow from the emperor?"
Concubine Yu lowered her head and said: "Returning to the emperor, Jingxuan has been with the emperor for a while, and this time he saved the emperor. This feeling is really rare; it is a pity that she is still a small palace servant."
Her answer was just as Xianyue expected, she said coldly: "Do you hope that the emperor will grant her the status of concubine?"
"Yes, I sincerely ask your Majesty to grant Jingxuan the title of noble lady." After saying that, Concubine Yu turned to look at Xianyue, "Does your Majesty think there is something wrong with this?"
Xianyue's eyes flashed and she said: "Jingxuan saved my life, I am naturally grateful, but it would be a bit of a joke to reward me with the title of nobleman because of this. You must know that a beautiful girl enters the palace and is named a nobleman."
Not much, Jingxuan...just a palace maid."
Concubine Yu insisted: "Although she is a palace maid, she has a good character and a good heart. I think she is not inferior to anyone, and she can afford the position of nobleman."
Regarding her words, Xianyue sneered in her heart, and just as she was about to speak, Hongli already said: "Concubine Yu, you get up first, as for the position of the noble..." Hongli hesitated before continuing, looking very hesitant, obviously not knowing.
Should you agree?
Concubine Yu knew that if she missed this opportunity, Wei Jingxuan might have to be a palace maid for the rest of her life, so she quickly said: "Your Majesty, the position of nobles is not the main one, and the number of people is uncertain. It is nothing special to reward Jingxuan.
After all, she can be regarded as having made a contribution to the rescue. If she had not frightened away the snake and bit the imperial concubine, it would have been non-venomous. If it had been poisonous, I don’t know what would happen now."
