"Your Majesty!" The queen's voice has never been so high: "If I really think so, wouldn't it be enough to just attack Concubine Zeng Li?!" Why do I have to plot against you?! Could it be that in Your Majesty's heart, I am such a ruthless person?! ”

Speaking of which, the queen's voice was already choked.

"In this palace...... There are few people in this palace who really ...... me, "The emperor has a splitting headache and is in a very manic mood."

The queen was sad and distressed, and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, don't be angry anymore, it will aggravate the headache." So where is Yunbo now? The concubine was willing to confront him face to face. ”

"Empress, I just want you to tell the truth," the emperor stared at the empress tightly with bloodshot eyes: "You really didn't harm me, did you?" ”

The queen didn't speak, just looked into the emperor's eyes and nodded solemnly.

"Okay, then...... Believe you! The emperor said almost with the last of his strength.

The queen's tears flowed at once.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Come on! Call the Imperial Doctor! The queen shouted as she helped the fainting emperor.

The long-term headache torture finally made the emperor unable to hold on, even if he was the son of heaven, he was also a mortal body.

The people sent out by the county lord of Duanmin to inquire came back and reported the news they heard truthfully.

"The emperor said that he believes in the queen, will this matter stop here?" Lord Duanmin asked Wei Yining with a bit of hope.

"Then it depends on how firm the emperor's mind is." Wei Yining said: "Although I also hope that this is the end of the matter, how can the person who tried to frame the queen easily stop? ”

"If the person who tried to frame the queen was someone else, but if it was Concubine Zeng Li......" Wei Lanqi said with a worried face: "I'm afraid it's not so easy to rest." ”

"What if it's Concubine Zeng Li? The emperor can't just listen to her. Lord Duanmin said angrily: "We can go to the emperor to defend the queen......

Wei Yining sighed and said: "I think what the fifth sister said is very right, from ancient times to the present, the battles in the harem are just concubines plotting against each other through the emperor, and the emperor's heart favors whoever wins." Even if the strategy is not clever, it is enough to rely on false accusations. ”

"That's right, has the county lord forgotten the story that the master told us about Li Ji killing Shen Sheng?" Wei Lanqi said: "In the eyes of onlookers, this trick is simply too clumsy, but Jin Jun just believed in Li Ji and killed his son." and those monarchs of the Tang Dynasty, they are not all as ruthless as killing their sons as killing enemies! ”

"So what are we going to do? Do you just sit back and wait? The more Lord Duanmin listened, the more panicked he became.

"Don't panic first, the queen is not without a chance of winning." Wei Yining said: "Now several important ministers in the court are congested with the prince, so they will naturally protect the queen." If the emperor really wants to abolish the queen, then someone in the previous dynasty will definitely stand up and speak. ”

"That's right, Yining, you're so smart, how did I forget that?" The county lord of Duanmin suddenly felt like a new life: "Only the emperor loves Concubine Zeng Li, in the eyes of the courtiers, Concubine Zeng Li is just a plaything, how can she be compared with the queen?" ”

"But even so, we can't be too optimistic," Wei Yining didn't feel any ease: "Because the ministers of the previous dynasty also have their own thoughts." ”

Lord Duanmin immediately lay down on the bed and did not move.

After dinner that day, the queen ordered someone to call Wei Yining and the other three over.

The emperor rested here for a long time, and had already driven back to Runzhi Palace.

"I'm sure you've all three heard about today, right?" The queen glanced at them and asked, "Originally, I was bent on seeking peace and stability, and I didn't want any turmoil in the harem." But the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, and now it seems that if I still blindly endure it, I am afraid that I will end up with no place in the future. ”

"Niangniang, the three of us also talked a few words in private today," Duanmin County Lord said, "I don't think this matter can end here." ”

"yes!" The queen sighed heavily and said, "I think there will be a follow-up." ”

"What about the Warlock?" Wei Lanqi asked, "Did he really put a curse on the emperor?" ”

"I haven't had time to ask about this matter in detail, and I can't interrogate him to avoid suspicion." The queen was very embarrassed: "The emperor is unwell, and if he asks in a few days, let someone look at him first." ”

"I plan to invite Concubine Xu into the mansion tomorrow to speak," the queen looked at Wei Yining and said, "By the way, please invite Miss Tingzhen of her family to also come into the palace, I know that you have a good relationship with each other, so you don't have to read tomorrow's book, so accompany her around the palace." ”

Wei Yining agreed, understanding that the queen began to communicate with the courtiers.

"Queen, are you sure who's behind it?" Lord Duanmin asked.

"I don't have full evidence to prove who it is, but I feel that it should be Concubine Zeng Li." The queen said: "After all, the emperor listens to her the most now." ”

"This woman's heart is too dark, isn't it?!" Lord Duanmin said angrily: "Get rid of a femme fatale!" Since she entered the palace, the queen has never treated her poorly. Speaking of her background, her name is also a little unjustified, but the queen never allows others to gossip about her. Who would have thought that she would harbor evil intentions and try in vain to disturb the harem, her heart can be punished! ”

"Yining, do you think it's Concubine Zeng Li too?" The queen asked Wei Yining if she couldn't make up her mind, because she felt that Wei Yining was delicate and calm, and she was a bystander, so she could see things more clearly.

"Judging from the existing evidence, it is indeed uncertain," Wei Yining muttered, "but one thing is certain. ”

"What is it?" The queen and the county lord of Duanmin hurriedly asked.

"Concubine Zeng Li's purpose in entering the palace must be impure." Wei Yining said firmly: "She entered the palace as an ugly girl, but she didn't abide by her duty, and she did things that exceeded the rules in private, so she pretended to be innocent." I don't believe that she is so scheming and that she has no ambition. ”

"That's right, Yining, you really see her too thoroughly, she's like this." Lord Duanmin nodded again and again: "On the surface, it seems that she didn't do anything or say anything, but in fact, she did everything she wanted." ”

"Besides, don't take anyone else lightly." Wei Yining continued: "First, Concubine Zeng Li may still have accomplices, and secondly, it is not excluded that someone will take the opportunity to fall into the well. ”

After all, the queen's position has always been coveted, and it just depends on whether there is a chance.

"Don't forget that there is also the Queen Mother," Wei Lanqi also said: "Even if the emperor doesn't listen to others, he will definitely listen to the Queen Mother." ”

The queen was supported by the queen mother, and the queen mother was the queen's biggest backer in this palace.

As long as the strategy is good, this battle may not be lost.
