After kneeling all night, Zhao Ling, who was cold and tired, passed out in the rainy night and lost consciousness. Only then did the torture come to an end.
Wu Meiren was in good health. Although she suffered a lot, the imperial doctor diagnosed her in time and saved her, but she was far less unlucky than Zhao Ling and was not seriously ill.
As for Zhao Ling, she faintly woke up after being in a coma for a long time. The doctor prescribed medicine for her, but she didn't feel much better after taking the medicine.
The last time she skidded, she suffered severe physical damage, so being caught in the rain at night this time was just adding insult to injury, making her ill.
It's just that this time is different from last time. There is no reward or pity from the emperor, only punishment is given to her.
Perhaps it was because of the intractable knot in his heart that Zhao Ling was unable to walk for half a month due to his illness.
"Your Majesty, please relax. This is just a coincidence. The Emperor only made your Majesty kneel down and did not deprive your Majesty of her right to control the harem, so it doesn't matter." Jin Qiu saw that his master was unhappy and soothed him.
Zhao Ling sneered when he heard this: "Are you sure it was just a coincidence?"
It was only after she figured out some things that she became depressed.
As soon as Jin Qiu heard this, he knew that his master had something more to say: "How do you say this?"
"It was a rainy night. How could a busy man like the emperor come to the Wuyou Palace for no reason? I only figured it out later. It was clearly Mu Ci who was behind the emperor's back to come to the Wuyou Palace. This was the reason for this so-called
What a coincidence!" Zhao Ling clenched his fists.
It's ridiculous that she thought she had caught Mu Ci's weakness, but she didn't know that Mu Ci would backhand the emperor and send him to her, causing her to suffer a whole night in vain.
From this incident, we can know that the emperor trusted Mu Ci very much and he could listen to what Mu Ci said. Otherwise, Mu Ci would not have been able to easily instigate the emperor and let him come to Wuyou Palace.
"It's impossible for the Queen Mother to have such ability, right?" Jin Qiu was surprised when he heard this.
The current Long Live Lord has performed well since he ascended the throne, and he is diligent in government affairs and very independent. Although Mu Ci is the Queen Mother, she is just a little girl. How can she persuade the Emperor?
Zhao Ling smiled coldly: "Only Mu Ci knows this."
In the end, Mu Ci took action, but Mu Ci took advantage of the emperor's power and asked the emperor to hand over the knife.
To say that she is powerful, of course the current Queen Mother is more powerful.
Let’s go back to Yong’an Palace.
Although Mu Ci had some scruples that day, she still felt that Wu Meiren should not be allowed to suffer. Firstly, Wu Meiren had done something for her, so she had no reason to ignore Wu Meiren when she was in trouble; secondly, she allowed Zhao Ling to succeed in her treacherous plan.
, will only increase Zhao Ling's arrogance.
After much thought, she still felt that she needed to find an appropriate opportunity to take action.
After Wu Meiren had knelt down for several hours, she was miserable enough. If Dugu Liancheng saw Wu Meiren kneeling as a punishment at this time, he would definitely feel pity.
After all, Wu Meiren also had some credit in the little prince's poisoning case. Thinking of this, the emperor could not ignore it.
What she had to do was to ask Dugu Liancheng to go to Wuyou Palace and ask Dugu Liancheng to rescue Wu Meiren.
It happened that Dugu Liancheng came to Yong'an Palace, and she mentioned that there was a rare thing in Concubine De, which she liked very much. This was the first time that she asked Dugu Liancheng for a reward. When Dugu Liancheng was happy, he went to Wuyou Palace in high spirits.
I want to ask for that thing from Zhao Ling.
In fact, even Mu Ci didn't expect that Dugu Liancheng would listen to her words and go to Wuyou Palace so happily.
What happened next was certainly not what she expected.
Dugu Liancheng actually punished Zhao Ling by making him kneel down until he finally became ill.
But it was also after that that Dugu Liancheng didn't sleep with her anymore, let alone come to Yong'an Palace. She also knew it in her heart, and Dugu Liancheng probably also thought that he was regarded as a spear user by her. This fact would not let the emperor
So happy.
So the emperor no longer appeared. He must have guessed this and had a grudge against her?
"Your Majesty, let's go to the Imperial Garden for a walk." Yingchun rushed in happily.
Mu Ci lost interest: "Is there anything to see?"
It would be better to just enjoy flowers and grass in Yong'an Palace.
"Your Majesty, please go play with me." Yingchun took Mu Ci's hand and acted coquettishly.
Mu Ci had no choice but to go to the Imperial Garden accompanied by Yingchun.
Not long after wandering, a woman with a slightly haggard face came from another flower path. Mu Ci's lips curved slightly: "De Fei!"
It's a coincidence, isn't it? It was a rare occasion for her to come out, and Zhao Ling was recovering from a serious illness, so she happened to bump into him in the Royal Garden.
When Concubine De saw it was Mu Ci, she wanted to laugh but couldn't. Especially in front of Mu Ci, she had to lower her head and said: "I respectfully invite the Queen Mother, Jin An."
"If you are not feeling well, you should take a good rest in the Wuyou Palace to avoid catching the cold again." Mu Ci smiled softly and spoke softly.
Zhao Ling knew, however, that Mu Ci was a two-faced man with a hidden knife in his smile. He looked harmless, but was actually ruthless.
"What the empress said is that I can save it." Zhao Ling replied to Mu Ci with a fake smile.
"The emperor has recently neglected Concubine De, and his thoughts are on the two people in Xihua Palace. Don't be discouraged by this. You should be more open-minded. Even if it is a wheel, the emperor will one day take care of Wuyou Palace." Mu Ci said.
, bullying Zhao Ling.
The moment she stretched out her hand, Zhao Ling subconsciously avoided it.
Mu Ci grabbed Zhao Ling's wrist and said, "What is Concubine De doing? Can the Ai family still eat you?"
Zhao Ling froze, not daring to move.
While she was suffering, Mu Ci took off a small yellow leaf from the top of her head.
She breathed a sigh of relief. Just now she thought Mu Ci wanted to kill her.
Mu Ci took a step away, just in time to see Zhao Ling let out a sigh of relief.
She curved her lips and said, "Walk with the Ai family."
Unexpectedly, a vicious woman like Zhao Ling is not too courageous.
"Yes." Zhao Ling followed Mu Ci.
She thought that if one day she could become the master of the middle palace, she would no longer have to bow to Mu Ci.
Even though she is now a first-class concubine and has the power of the harem, she still has to bow her head when facing Mu Ci.
"Tell us about Beauty Zhao." Mu Ci started talking.
Zhao Ling's eyes flashed slightly, he did not expect that Mu Ci would mention Zhao Meiren.
As we all know, Zhao Meiren died under Mu Ci's eyes. No matter whether Mu Ci was the real murderer or not, she could not escape her involvement.
"The deceased is gone, there is nothing to say." Zhao Ling's voice became colder.
Did Mu Ci think that this would make her sad? He actually used the deceased Zhao Meiren to make an issue. This woman was extremely vicious.
"The Ai family heard that you would enter the palace because they wanted to avenge Zhao Meiren. So, Concubine De still has some sisterly feelings for Zhao Meiren. But after Concubine De entered the palace, they did not find the real culprit. This makes
The Ai family is confused." Mu Ci said slowly.
Zhao Ling didn't want Mu Ci to be so straightforward. She looked at Mu Ci, and when she saw the smile on her face, she suddenly felt angry.
