Tang Miaoling returned to the table.

Ning Wanyin felt relieved to see her return safely, and then asked Lianrui to find Xiao Qingzi to find out if there was anything unusual.

There were no accidents at this palace banquet.

The banquet ended amid singing and dancing.

After leaving Tinglan Palace, the concubines returned to the palace one after another.

Lady Wen was in a very bad mood. She sat in the sedan chair, feeling depressed and irritable.

This half colorful banner is given to all concubines during their pregnancy.

Whenever a concubine becomes pregnant, she will be treated differently in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. This is also why Concubine Wen feels she is superior now compared to the past.

But he didn't expect that he would be defeated by Ning Wanyin.

“Bang—”

Suddenly, the eunuch who was carrying the sedan chair slipped and fell to the ground with a thud.

The sedan chair fell to the ground and overturned.

Lady Wen was caught off guard and fell out of the sedan chair.

"It hurts..." Lady Wen covered her stomach and shouted in panic.

The face of the accompanying Nanny Lu changed instantly. She was an experienced Nanny arranged by the Emperor, and she immediately shouted loudly:

"Go get the imperial physician! No one should touch the master!"

As he spoke, he took out a brocade box from his bosom, took out a pill the size of a longan and handed it to Lady Wen:

"My Lord, please use the pregnancy-preserving pills!"

This pregnancy-preserving pill comes from the sixty-fifth of Ning Wanyin's one hundred palace rules.

Please ask the imperial physician to prepare Baotai Pills for the master to take in case of miscarriage or unexpected bleeding. It has the effect of strengthening the body, warming the uterus and stopping bleeding. (To avoid wasting time on the imperial physician's way)

Of course, this kind of pregnancy-preserving pill is not a panacea.

If there is only mild fetal instability and bleeding, the baby can be saved.

If you drink a big bowl of abortion pills, nothing you eat will work.

Lady Wen was also panicked at this time. She didn't care about the pill stuck in her throat and quickly swallowed it.

Grandma Lu ordered again, "Come here, report to His Majesty!"

…

Soon, the imperial physician arrived first.

The emperor and Concubine Shu arrived one after another, and other concubines rushed over after hearing the news.

Ning Wanyin's colorful banner just reached the entrance of Lingxue Pavilion and then turned back.

"Your Majesty, fortunately Concubine Wen only had slight bleeding, and she took the pregnancy-preserving pills in time, so the royal heir is safe and sound. However, Concubine Wen was frightened and needs more care..." the imperial physician reported.

A trace of disappointment flashed through Concubine Shu's heart, but on the surface she said happily:

"God bless you, Lady Wen is safe. Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Congratulations to Lady Wen!"

No matter what the concubines thought in their hearts, they all congratulated him on the surface.

Helian Qi's expression eased slightly, and he frowned and asked, "How do you serve Lady Wen?"

"Your Majesty, please spare my life... I really didn't mean to do it. I don't know what I stepped on, and suddenly I slipped and fell!" The little eunuch who fell knelt on the ground trembling with fear. When he saw the emperor's rebuke, he kowtowed quickly.

Upon hearing the news, the eunuch Wu Mi, who was in charge of the Criminal Justice Department, rushed over to check.

The bluestone road was illuminated by several palace lanterns.

There was only a trace of white wax on the ground.

Wu Mi ordered people to check the young eunuch's shoes, and there were also wax marks on the soles of his shoes.

"Your Majesty, after a preliminary inspection, it seems that someone threw a wax ball on the ground. The wax ball is slippery, and it caused people to slip when they stepped on it, leaving this slip mark." Wu Mi scraped off some wax powder and presented it to Helian Qi for report.

Concubine Shu was shocked and said, "Your Majesty, there should be no wax balls on this palace path. Before the banquet ended, I specially ordered people to sweep the palace path three times to prevent concubines from accidentally falling. Every palace path was checked one by one."

"Zhenzhu, call the palace servant who is responsible for cleaning this palace path over here."

Pearl obeyed.

Soon, four palace maids and two eunuchs arrived.

"Your Majesty, please understand! We have cleaned this palace very thoroughly. There is absolutely no wax pellets."

Several people knelt on the ground and testified to each other that they cleaned very carefully and made sure that the palace was spotless.

Concubine Cen thought thoughtfully, "Has anyone else walked on this road?"

"If I remember correctly, there is a fork in the road at the end. To the left is the Jiangyun Palace (the Ranfeng Pavilion is located on the left side), and to the right is the Yonghe Palace. Except for Concubine Ning, there should be no one else passing by." Concubine Xue had an expression of watching a good show.

Everyone's eyes turned to Ning Wanyin.

After this palace road was cleared, only Ning Wanyin and her group walked through it.

Who threw this wax ball?

It's obvious!

Lady Wen was shocked and angry, but she already knew the emperor's preference for Ning Wanyin, so she didn't dare to scold him directly, but said aggrievedly:

"Ning Jieyu, I have no grudge against you in the past or in the present, why do you want to harm me like this?"

Lady Xue sneered, "Of course it's because I'm jealous of your pregnancy!"

"I don't think Concubine Ning is that kind of person. Apart from Concubine Ning, has anyone else passed by here?" Concubine Shu asked deliberately.

All the palace guards on duty nearby were summoned to check one by one.

Apart from Ning Wanyin, no one else passed by.

Because the palace was cleaned up only after the banquet. Then, Ning Wanyin's colorful banner passed by.

Next came Lady Wen’s colorful banner.

There is no one else besides this.

"Your Majesty, please help Lady Wen!" Lady Xue didn't know who set up this trap, but that didn't stop her from adding fuel to the fire. She said:

"Ning Jieyu plotted to murder the heir to the throne. This is a heinous crime! Your Majesty, please punish her!"

All the concubines looked at Ning Wanyin.

Tang Miaoling and Wei Yingya became nervous at the same time.

This is simply... such bad luck along the way?

Helian Qi also looked at Ning Wanyin, his face calm, "Does Ning have anything to say in rebuttal?"

Before there was a direct eyewitness, he didn't doubt Ning Wanyin much.
