Twilight was approaching, the banquet was over, the Queen Mother couldn't hold on to going back to the room to rest, and everyone gradually dispersed. Wanyan Lingyue was just about to go back with Bai Shengrui, when the fat eunuch beside the Queen Mother appeared in front of them.

After the fat eunuch saluted with a smile, he said, "Princess, the Queen Mother invites you to come over." ”

"Excuse me?" Wanyan Lingyue subconsciously glanced at Bai Shengrui, "I'm alone?" ”

Bai Shengrui nodded, "In this case, then you can go, this king is waiting for you outside the palace, don't delay too long." ”

With that, he left directly.

After Yan Lingyue followed the fat eunuch to the Empress Dowager's palace, just after the imperial garden, her stomach suddenly tumbled, and she couldn't stop retching while holding on to the wall.

It's bad, this time it's really a bad stomach. But she didn't eat much at this banquet.

The fat eunuch saw Yan Lingyue retching, and immediately said urgently: "Princess, what's wrong with you?" Do you want a servant to call a doctor for you? ”

"No, it's fine." Wanyan Lingyue took a deep breath, held back the tumbling in her stomach, and waved her hand at the fat eunuch.

At this moment, a man dressed in a medical officer's uniform walked over from not far away, and the fat eunuch's eyes lit up when he saw the man, and he hurriedly greeted him: "Imperial Doctor Li, take a look, the fourth princess is unwell." ”

Imperial Physician Li immediately quickened his pace and walked in front of Wan Yan Lingyue, "I've seen the fourth princess, and the lower officials are abrupt." ”

After that, he grabbed Yan Lingyue's wrist and began to diagnose the pulse.

Wanyan Lingyue was a little embarrassed, "Actually, it's nothing, I may just have a bad stomach, that's why I retched." ”

Imperial Physician Li didn't finish listening to Yan Lingyue's words, and after diagnosing the pulse, his eyes showed joy, and he hurriedly took two steps back, and bowed to Yan Lingyue, "Congratulations to the princess, princess, you are happy." ”

"Huh?" Pregnant? Wanyan Lingyue didn't react for a while.

"I'm glad, according to your pulse, it's been more than two months." Imperial Physician Li said with a smile.

Wanyan Lingyue subconsciously covered her lower abdomen, still couldn't believe it, she was actually happy? She is not mentally prepared yet, Bai Shengrui, will Bai Shengrui like this child?

After standing in a daze for a while, Wanyan Lingyue suddenly ran outside the palace, she wanted to be the first to let Bai Shengrui know about this good news.

"Princess, don't run, the Queen Mother is still waiting for you." The fat eunuch hurriedly caught up with Wanyan Lingyue and said helplessly.

Yes, the Queen Mother is still waiting for her. Wanyan Lingyue stopped, thinking that the Queen Mother had always urged her to make a child before, so it would be good to tell her first, so that she would be happy.

Anyway, Bai Shengrui is outside the palace, and he won't run away.

followed the fat eunuch to the outside of Ci'an Palace, and the two were about to go in, when suddenly a palace maid came and whispered a few words in the fat eunuch's ear. The fat eunuch's face changed suddenly, and he turned to Wan Yan Lingyue and said, "Princess, there was some accident at the Queen Mother's dinner, and the slave has to go to the imperial dining room to have a look." ”

Wanyan Lingyue waved her hand and said with a smile: "Go ahead, it's not that I don't know the way here." ”

After the fat eunuch left, Wanyan Lingyue went to the Queen Mother's bedroom alone, but for some reason, she suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart, I don't know if it was her delusion, I always felt that there were many fewer people in the Queen Mother's palace today, and she walked so far that she didn't see it alone.

Walking to the door of the Queen Mother's bedroom, Wanyan Lingyue called in a low voice, "Queen Mother? ”

But after waiting for a while, there was no sound from inside, and after Yan Lingyue was curious, she directly pushed the door and walked in.

Walking into the inner room, Wanyan Lingyue suddenly froze.

The Queen Mother fell to the ground, with a short sword in her chest, blood all over the ground, her eyes widened, and she looked like she was no longer breathing, and in her hand, she was still holding a blood-stained longevity bag.

"Too ...... Dowager? "How is that possible? None of this is true. The Empress Dowager Fang Cai was still sitting on the top seat, eating her shou bao with a smile, why did it become like this in a blink of an eye?

Wanyan Lingyue couldn't believe everything in front of her at all, but all this was so real.

The smell of blood in the room made her hair rise all over her body, and she trembled and walked in front of the Queen Mother, tears suddenly filled her eyes. How is it possible, this is the palace, the Queen Mother has always been kind, how could she be killed?

"Queen Mother......" Wanyan Lingyue knelt in front of her, her fingers poked under her nose, she was no longer breathing, and her body was already cold.

Wanyan Lingyue held the Queen Mother in her arms, this kind old man, who once favored her so much, helped her through difficulties again and again, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes and fell on the Queen Mother's face, Wanyan Lingyue only felt that her heart was tightly grasped, and it was so difficult to breathe, "Help, help!" She cried.

Soon there was a loud and noisy sound of footsteps outside, but after a while, a group of people broke into the palace, led by the emperor, who saw the queen mother die in Wanyan Lingyue's arms, and immediately yelled, "Come on, I will arrest this rebellious minister and thief who plotted to kill the queen mother, and put him in prison!" ”

Wanyan Lingyue raised her eyes in shock, her tear-stained face showed a look of disbelief, how could she be a rebellious minister and thief who murdered the Queen Mother? It was the Queen Mother who called her over, the Queen Mother was so good to her, how could she harm the Queen Mother?!

"Your Majesty, it's not me, I didn't harm the Queen Mother."

"You still have to quibble, who else is here just now besides you and the Queen Mother? It's clear that you killed the Queen Mother. Chen Hanjing, who was standing behind the emperor, said immediately.

Bai Jingliang pursed his lips tightly, looked away, and didn't dare to finish looking at Yan Lingyue.

"I didn't, the Queen Mother was so good to me, how could I hurt the Queen Mother?" After Yan Lingyue said, tears fell again, as long as she thought that this old lady would leave the world from now on, her heart would be extremely uncomfortable.

Chen Hanjing secretly glanced at the emperor, and then shouted even harder: "Wanyan Lingyue, don't pretend anymore, who here doesn't know, you have a ruthless heart and wolf ambition!" You said that you didn't kill the Queen Mother, so why is the sword on the Queen Mother's chest yours? ”

"Mine?" Wanyan Lingyue immediately looked at the Queen Mother's chest, she hadn't paid attention to it yet, but at this time, she suddenly found that the sword on the Queen Mother's chest was really exactly the same as the one she had bought at the auction.

How can it be? Her sword was obviously stored at home, how could it be here?

"No, it's not...... Wanyan Lingyue also panicked in her heart, Bai Shengrui was not here, she had to look at Bai Jingliang, "Prince, you know me, I won't kill anyone." ”

Bai Jingliang didn't even look at her.

Why? Why is it suddenly like this? Wanyan Lingyue also understood at this time that someone wanted to harm her and deliberately lured her here. Is it Chen Hanjing? If it was Chen Hanjing, why didn't Bai Jingliang help her? They're obviously friends.

"After Yan Lingyue, the human and material evidence is there, you don't need to quibble, put her in the prison and execute her on a later date." The emperor snorted coldly and closed the coffin.
