Before Xue Jinyan was sent to the cold palace, Empress Dowager Xue sent Shufei's father away.
Now that Xue Jinyan is dead, she must want to send Concubine Shu and Ning Wanyin away to be buried with Xue Jinyan.
Moreover, Empress Dowager Xue used the excuse of attending to her illness.
Very easy to layout.
All he had to do was tamper with the medicine that Ning Wanyin served him, and that would be the crime of poisoning the empress dowager.
"What should we do then?" Wei Yingya looked at Ning Wanyin worriedly, "Can you refuse to go?"
"The imperial decree has been issued, so of course it is impossible." Ning Wanyin said calmly, her thin lips curved into a smile:
"But I think she might not dare to let me take care of her."
Wei Yingya looked at her curiously, "What good ideas do you have?"
…
Cining Palace.
"Empress Dowager, this Ning Wanyin is so bold that she actually planned to poison you while she was tending to your illness..." Wei Yingya said with a loyal look on her face:
"I heard the news and came here to report it immediately. Please, Queen Mother, take precautions as soon as possible!"
Queen Mother Xue, who was sitting in the main seat, was stunned. "How dare she?"
"Ning Wanyin said that if the time comes and everything is pushed onto Concubine Shu, the Emperor will definitely protect her." Wei Yingya said:
"I was furious when I heard this and was very worried about the Queen Mother, so I tried to find out how she planned to poison me."
"She said that although the Cining Palace is well guarded, there will always be omissions. Whether it's spreading poison in the incense burner, putting ingredients in the charcoal brazier, tampering with the medicine, or even poisoning the palace maids she comes into contact with... she will always find an opportunity. I was really terrified when I heard this. This woman's methods are really cruel. You must be careful, Queen Mother!"
Queen Mother Xue's heart sank.
How dare Ning Wanyin? No, she dared.
When had she ever been afraid of the Xue family? And with Concubine Shu taking the blame, the emperor would definitely side with her.
Can Queen Mother Xue ensure that she will be safe and that she will not succeed?
cannot.
As long as Ning Wanyin stepped into the Cining Palace, she would be in danger.
Before she framed Ning Wanyin, she might have fallen into Ning Wanyin's trap.
Killing Ning Wanyin was not worth risking her own life.
Queen Mother Xue came back to her senses, looked at Wei Yingya and said:
"I understand. You did a great job this time, and I will remember your contribution. Liu Zhen, give the South China Sea pearls that my brother sent me a few days ago to Concubine Ying."
The pearls that could be sent to the palace by the Duke were of course rare treasures.
"Thank you, Queen Dowager!" Wei Yingya's eyes were filled with tears of gratitude.
Big pearls, a box of beautiful big pearls! This is so happy!
…
After listening to what Ning Wanyin wanted to relay, Wei Yingya couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Why do we need to inform the Queen Mother about this? Why not just send her away?"
"There's a 50% chance of success, but there's also a 50% chance that the Queen Mother will find out. I'm only 50% sure, so I don't plan to do this." Ning Wanyin shook her head slightly.
"But once she hears my plan, the chances of her not wanting me to take care of her should be 100 percent."
The next day.
When Ning Wanyin came to the Cining Palace to serve the patient as arranged by the imperial decree.
But he couldn't even get through the door.
The head eunuch Liu Zhen blocked the door and stared at Ning Wanyin coldly, "This morning, the priest told the Empress Dowager that Ning Zhaoyi's zodiac sign conflicts with the Empress Dowager's. It will be bad for the Empress Dowager's condition if you take care of her."
"Ah?" Ning Wanyin looked disappointed, "But the imperial decree has been issued..."
"If you really want the Empress Dowager to get better soon, just stay away from the Cining Palace." Liu Zhen said.
Ning Wanyin nodded slightly, "Then I will not go in to disturb the Queen Mother while she is recuperating. I will take my leave."
Ning Wanyin was about to leave.
Encountered the procession of Concubine Shu.
She limped down with the help of two palace maids, and said apologetically:
"Thank you, Eunuch Liu, for informing me that when I went out today, I accidentally slipped in the snow and broke my leg..."
Liu Zhen immediately understood that Concubine Shu was trying to shirk responsibility, and snorted in dissatisfaction, "Then we should invite an imperial physician for Concubine Shu."
"The imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital has come to see me and said I won't be able to walk for at least a month." Concubine Shu looked depressed.
"It's a pity that I can't take care of the Empress Dowager. I am extremely worried... But fortunately, I have Sister Ning, so I can rest assured."
Her leg was really broken.
For medical examination.
She guessed that Queen Mother Xue wanted to kill her by pretending to be sick, so she deliberately broke her leg to avoid this matter.
Ning Wanyin bowed and saluted, "I greet the Concubine Shu. I have all my limbs intact, but unfortunately the Empress Dowager said that my zodiac sign conflicts with mine... I don't have this chance anymore."
There was a flash of anger in Concubine Shu's eyes. She had to break her leg to avoid this game, but Ning Wanyin did nothing, so how did she get away with it?
Liu Zhen went into the Cining Palace to report.
Empress Dowager Xue was very angry. She had already been angered by Ning Wanyin yesterday.
One really dares to kill her, the other doesn't dare to kill her but will break his leg.
She suddenly felt that Yan'er's loss was not unfair.
These two women are both difficult.
If we want to deal with them, we need to find another opportunity and make long-term plans.
"Then let Concubine Shu go back."
Concubine Shu was carried back to Jingxi Palace.
After all the trouble along the way, the wound on my leg was bleeding.
"Go and ask the imperial physician to rebandage it!" Zhenzhu urged, looking at Concubine Shu with concern, "Your Majesty, you have suffered."
Concubine Shu lowered her eyes. She didn't feel bitter at first.
Life is not easy for women in the harem, so what is this little bit of hardship?
But when she saw Ning Wanyin going back safely, she felt very unhappy.
