Thinking of all this, Wanliuhashi disregarded everything else and wanted to find Emperor Kangxi, but she was stopped by guards at the entrance of Jingren Palace.
"Make way, I need to see the Emperor!" Wanliuha shouted to the guards.
"Consort, please forgive me, but you are currently under house arrest and cannot leave Jingren Palace!" the guard said expressionlessly.
"Go and tell the Emperor that I want to see him!"
"You flatter me, Consort. How could we servants possibly give orders to His Majesty!"
Seeing that the guards were completely unmoved, Wanliuhashi was at a loss for what to do.
"You can go to the Imperial Concubine's palace and tell her I want to see her!"
"You flatter me, Consort..." the guard continued, smiling.
"Shut up!" Lady Wanliuha pulled the hairpin from her hair and held it to her neck. "If you don't marry me, tell the Imperial Concubine, and I'll die right in front of you. Let me tell you, I'm carrying the imperial heir. Let's see how you explain yourselves then!"
The two guards looked at each other. If Wanliuhashi were to get into trouble right under their noses, they would be in deep trouble.
Finally, the guard said to the second guard, "Go to Chengqian Palace and see if the Imperial Concubine will come!"
The second guard glanced at Wanliuhashi.
Seeing this, Wanliuhashi moved the hairpin even closer to her neck.
The second guard didn't dare to delay and ran towards Chengqian Palace.
Wanliuha turned around and went back to her room, where she was restless and uneasy.
"Wanliuhashi wants to see me?" Consort Tongjia heard Ren Dong's words and couldn't understand why Wanliuhashi wanted to see her.
“Yes, Your Highness, that’s what the guards at Jingren Palace said!” Ren Dong said.
"Aunt, are you going to see her?" He Xue asked from the side.
Consort Tongjia thought for a moment, "Go ahead, I'll see what tricks she's up to this time. After all, she's carrying the imperial heir!"
"Alright, let's go, Aunt!" He Xue came to Consort Tongjia's side.
Consort Tongjia smiled at He Xue, "Are you going too?"
He Xue took Tong Jia Guifei's arm and said, "Of course I have to stay with my aunt. In case Wan Liuha has any ill intentions, I can protect my aunt!"
Consort Tongjia was even more reluctant to let her go after hearing He Xue's words. "You stay obediently in Chengqian Palace and wait for your aunt. Your aunt will have the kitchen make your favorite cheese dumplings, okay? Besides, your knee is still injured!"
"Aunt, we can eat when we get back!" He Xue was determined to follow Consort Tongjia today. "Aunt, if you don't let me come, I'll catch up with you the moment you leave."
"Can you really bear to let me walk to Jingren Palace by myself?" He Xue blinked as she looked at Consort Tongjia.
In the end, Consort Tongjia gave in, saying, "I really can't do anything with you, let's go!"
He Xue knew that Consort Tongjia would definitely agree.
Consort Tongjia, accompanied by Hexue, arrived at Jingren Palace in a sedan chair.
The gates of Jingren Palace were tightly closed. Only after Consort Tongjia arrived did the guards slowly open the gates.
Upon hearing the sound, Lady Wanliuha knew that Consort Tongjia had arrived, and immediately got up and went out.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
Consort Tongjia stopped and looked at Lady Wanliuha: "I heard you wanted to see me?"
"Yes, Your Highness, this servant has something to report!"
Consort Tongjia glanced at Lady Wanliuha and said, "Let's go inside and talk!"
Once inside, before Consort Tongjia could speak, Lady Wanliuha recounted Sang'er's story.
"You suspect that Sang'er was murdered?"
“Yes, Your Majesty! It was Sang’er who instigated me to target Princess He Xue. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have targeted Princess He Xue for no reason!” Wan Liuha said.
He Xue looked up at Wan Liuhashi when she heard that it was related to her, then continued to play with her fingers. "I knew it. She didn't offend Wan Liuhashi, so why is Wan Liuhashi targeting her?"
But who's behind Sang'er? She doesn't seem to have offended anyone. Could it be a powerful figure?
He Xue thought that if she had an enemy in the palace, it must be Consort Wuya. Could it be that Consort Wuya is the person behind Sang'er?
When Consort Tongjia heard what Lady Wanliuha said, the first person she thought of was Consort Wuya. Apart from her hostility towards Chengqian Palace, it seemed that there was no one else.
