Liu Yanning felt restless as soon as she woke up in the morning. She was about to go for a walk in the yard when she saw her grandma bringing soup.
Liu Yanning felt nauseous when she saw the pastel porcelain cup. This was the secret recipe for pregnancy in the palace. The dark soup had something in it. It tasted astringent and stuck in her throat.
Whenever she swallowed, she would smell the stench of blood.
As long as the emperor comes once, she will take turns to eat this kind of food. Everyone in the palace, from the emperor to the chamberlain, will look at her belly whenever they see her, as if she is only used for childbirth.
Everyone is reminding her that she is not a destined woman, but a disgusting thing. As long as she gives birth to a dragon heir, she will be thrown away like garbage.
This is the greatest humiliation to her.
These people were not so much taking care of her daily life as they were taking care of her belly. Whenever the emperor left something in her body, these people would spin like tops, one holding the pillow and the other holding her legs.
Lifting up, the nanny stuffed the salty pills into her mouth, and then everyone stared at the hourglass. The emperor would stand aside and watch every time, as if watching a dog peeing in the same place every time.
See how it differs this time from the last time.
These were her days in the palace.
From living a free life at home to falling into such a dark abyss all of a sudden, it was all because of being plotted by Yang. Yang had already thought about how to deal with her from the moment he saw the jade. Not only did she look down on her
He ignored the Yang family and underestimated Zhou Chengling.
"Empress Li," the nanny brought the soup to her.
While there was no one in the room, Liu Yanning immediately said: "Pour the soup and tell the female officer that I have already eaten."
This nanny was sent in by her mother's family. She usually listens to her words, but today she did not respond immediately. Instead, she looked at her hesitantly and said, "Ms. Libin, just take the medicine on time. It's impossible to say that it won't work."
Useful, only if you can give birth to a dragon heir as soon as possible, Empress Li will have a better future. The empress still caters to the emperor, trying every means to keep the emperor by her side, so that the emperor will pity you and favor you, although the emperor is not fond of the empress in the palace.
However, when Empress Feng was around, the Emperor still often went over to talk..."
The implication is that as long as she works hard, she might be able to win the same favor as Empress Feng.
Liu Yanning looked at Aunt Cui. Aunt Cui would never say such things. Liu Yanning suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart, "Did something happen at home? I asked you to inquire about the news. What did you find out?"
Aunt Cui suddenly turned pale and said, "Ms. Li, something happened to the Liu family. Mr. Ge was taken away by officials from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and all the letters in the house were sealed."
"Is it because of Yang Bingzheng?" Liu Yanning's eyes widened. When did the emperor start to care about government affairs?
Aunt Cui shook her head, "I heard it was Empress Feng. Some people said that our Liu family had wronged Empress Feng. Empress Feng did not have an affair with the guard at all..."
She knew very well whether Empress Feng had an affair with a guard, because she was the one who entered the palace to help her father get the whole thing done. She watched helplessly as Empress Feng fell from the clouds.
Feng Dang's rebellion, as long as everyone involved with Feng Guochang has been convicted, why is the old matter brought up again now? Someone must know something.
Liu Yanning suddenly felt cold all over, and Queen Feng's resentful eyes suddenly returned to her mind.
Liu Yanning shivered solidly.
What should we do? If it is really found out, what should the Liu family do? What should she do? The emperor will definitely deal with her.
Liu Yanning was suddenly in a state of confusion. Who else in the palace could help her now? Liu Yanning looked at Aunt Cui, "Have you gone to see Eunuch Huang? Let Eunuch Huang think of something?"
Aunt Cui shook her head, "Eunuch Huang is very ill. I went there. There are imperial doctors there both inside and outside. You also know that the imperial hospital and Princess Kang are in the same boat. How can I dare to say anything, so I have to leave it like this."
came back."
In the deep palace, she is alone and helpless, and her father and mother are now even more unable to protect themselves...
Liu Yanning stood up and said, "Follow me to Cining Palace to see the Queen Mother." Now that the emperor has not restricted her from walking in the palace, she will take advantage of this moment to find a way out for herself.
…
Liu Yanning stood outside the Cining Palace and waited for the palace attendant to report. After a while, the palace attendant came out and said: "The Empress Dowager's discomfort has subsided. Concubine Li, please go back!"
The Queen Mother did not see her, whether it was because she heard about the Liu family, or because she felt that she was involved with Queen Feng's case. Either way was not a good thing for her, and Liu Yanning felt like she was completely despairing.
No, she has been fighting for so many years, she can't just bow her head and admit defeat, what should she do?
"I heard that the Queen Mother is not feeling well, and I should serve her at the bedside," Liu Yanning said in a low voice. "I'll bother my sister to report it later. I copied a Buddhist scripture and wanted to hand it over to the Queen Mother, so that I can cure the Queen Mother's illness."
It had been many years since she had helped the Queen Mother copy Buddhist scriptures. After hearing these words, the Queen Mother would not care about her past kindness.
The palace man nodded and went back to report. Liu Yanning was waiting outside, almost forgetting to breathe. When she felt that her heart was about to stop, the palace man came back and saw her and sighed, "The Queen Mother said, you really want to
See you soon!"
The regretful look on the palace attendant's face froze all the blood in Liu Yanning's body. She looked at the door of Cining Palace. This door was originally her life-saving straw, but now it looked like a bloody mouth. As long as she walked in, she would be
There will be no bones left.
Liu Yanning suppressed her fear and slowly approached the inner hall. There was a gauze curtain hanging in the inner hall. Liu Yanning stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother's voice came from behind the curtain, "Get up!"
Then someone from the palace rolled up the gauze curtain.
The curtain opened, and Liu Yinning saw a pair of goose-yellow beaded embroidered shoes, and then a willow-green palace skirt. Someone stepped forward to help the man turn around. Before Liu Yinning's eyes fell on the man's face, he heard the Queen Mother say:
"Be careful. You must not make any mistakes when you are pregnant. If I hadn't been unwell, I wouldn't have allowed anyone to take you into the palace."
Liu Yinning's eyelids were twitching, and when she saw Yang Molan's quiet face, Liu Yinning's heart suddenly sank.
Why is Yang Molan here?
Just when Liu Yanning didn't know what to do, Yang Molan's eyes were already red, "Empress Libi knows this matter clearly, otherwise she wouldn't have handed my father's jade pendant into my hands."
Liu Yanning almost lost her mind after just one glance. The jade pendant used to threaten Yang Molan was now lying quietly in the hands of the Queen Mother.
Liu Yanning looked surprised, then she immediately shook her head, "What is Princess Kang talking about? What jade pendant? Where do I have any jade pendant?"
Yang Mo wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. Normally, the Liu family was behind the scenes, but now she pushed Liu Yanning to the stage to see what other tricks she could perform, "At this time, Empress Li is still unwilling to say anything? Li Bi
The empress only handed the jade pendant to me when she wanted to enter the palace. When there was no news about my father, I didn't dare to tell anyone. Now that I am sure that the person the prince rescued is my father, I dare to tell everything to the empress dowager.
.”
Yang Molan kept looking at her as she spoke. This was not meant to be told to the Queen Mother. Yang Molan came into the palace to see her laugh and see how she could become more miserable.
She didn't understand why the Queen Mother would always trust Yang Molan. Yang Molan was basically taking advantage of the Queen Mother.
Use the authority of the Queen Mother to suppress her.
Even though his father wanted to be a highly respected minister, he always supported the emperor. But King Kang was different. He always had a rebellious attitude. Why couldn't the emperor and the queen mother understand it?
On the surface, this Yang was just a female doctor, but in fact she was of the same mind as Kang Wang and his wife, and was helping Kang Wang plan overtly and covertly. Liu Yanning suddenly felt that she was very pathetic, why she didn't see it clearly until now.
The Queen Mother handed the jade pendant to the palace attendant, "Show it to Concubine Li and let Concubine Li think carefully. Did she give this piece of jade to Princess Kang?"
The palace attendant held the jade pendant in both hands and approached Liu Yinning step by step.
Princess Kang had already grasped her handle and was pulling hard, making sure to strangle her until she couldn't breathe.
"Does Concubine Li know what my father has become? A man who is taller than an ordinary man and as thin as a teenager. What kind of person can be so cruel?"
Yang spoke word by word, looking at her closely. Those eyes seemed calm, but they seemed like turbulent waves that could swallow her up at any time.
Make her afraid, make her dare not look directly and move her eyes away.
Yang is taking revenge, Yang is taking revenge on her, and on the entire Liu family.
Suddenly a thought came into Liu Yanning's mind. She couldn't admit it. She couldn't let go even if she died. She couldn't say that she knew about Yang Bingzheng. She was just a woman, she knew nothing.
Yang Mo looked at Liu Yanning.
Liu Yanning turned pale with fright but did not dare to shout or make a sound. She hated the Liu family, because the Liu family was worse than Feng Guochang. They were just treacherous villains who would only hide behind others and add fuel to the flames. I don’t know how many people were killed by the Liu family.
The hypocrisy and deception of the family has ruined many lives at the hands of the Liu family and his daughter.
Liu Yanning's long nails collided, "I gave this to Princess Kang, but I didn't know it was Master Yang's jade pendant."
The Queen Mother frowned, "Who gave you this jade pendant?"
As a young lady who has not yet left the government, if she got such a thing from someone, she said it was a servant, and the Queen Mother would definitely arrest that servant for questioning.
No, she can't leave such a hidden danger, and she can't completely hand over her life.
The Queen Mother said: "You are still not telling the truth at this time? What have your parents done? They used Mrs. Chang to kill their grandson. The Liu family called your father and wanted to ask him clearly, but the chamberlain happened to hear him, and the chamberlain had already
I reported it to the emperor, who ordered all the documents of the Liu family to be searched." At this point, the Queen Mother's face became even more ugly, "What else do you have to hide now?"
The head of Liu Yinning kept trembling, "Yes, it's from my family." At this point, Liu Yinning cried bitterly, as if she didn't want to say anything, "I don't know anything, so I thought I would give Princess Kang some gifts.
Then we can make peace with Princess Kang."
Yang Mo almost laughed out loud, Liu Yanning threw her parents out just to save her life.
