Chapter 425: Forced Stay

Wei Qingqing asked her how she identified it, and the man pointed to an invisible mark on the waist card and explained: "The waist cards of the palace people who are on errand in the imperial dining room are all the same, in order to make it easier to identify, the big guy will make some small marks of his own on the waist card, and the slave just knows where Shizuka's mark is, so you can see it at a glance!" ”

Wei Qingqing was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately asked the palace people to take her to Shizuka!

Who would have thought that they searched all the places Shizuka might go but didn't find anyone...... Shizuka suddenly disappeared!

Mama Zhang's case was found here, and the clues were cut off, and Wei Qingqing couldn't stop if she didn't want to.

In the end, she could only tell the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan one by one about the waist card and the clues she found, which could be regarded as an explanation to herself.

She didn't dare to question Emperor Wu's decision, and bluntly said that Chen was innocent, so she could only euphemistically tell the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan that there were still some doubts in the case that had not yet been solved, and she should pay attention to the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan.

Although the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan accepted the waist card, she did not say much about the case, and only told Wei Qingqing to pay attention to her body, so that she should not be too tired when she is pregnant, so as not to move the fetus.

Wei Qingqing was a little disappointed with the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan's approach, but now that she is pregnant, it is really not suitable for her to stay in the palace for a long time, so she did what she could do, and she resigned like the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan.

"The queen mother, the concubine is pregnant, and the mother at home is worried and wants to leave the palace and return home as soon as possible." Wei Qingqing said respectfully.

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan nodded slightly with a kind face, and said, "You are a double body now, you should stay at home and recuperate!" ”

She said that her eyes fell on Wei Qingqing's lower abdomen, and there was a little more smile on her face, "You are carrying the first child of our Ming family's next generation in your belly, you have to be careful!" The mourning family will send someone to send you home. ”

The Empress Dowager Xiaoduan said and turned her head and instructed the palace maid standing on the side, "Go to the treasury of the mourning family and pick up a few high-grade Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, bird's nest and other supplements for Princess Rui to take home in case of emergency." ”

When Wei Qingqing heard this, she hurriedly got up to thank her, and the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan pulled her to tell her a lot of precautions, so she ordered the palace maid Vanilla to send Wei Qingqing out of the palace, "Vanilla, be sure to send Princess Rui out of the palace gate safely for the mourning family." ”

"The slave and maid obey the will of the Queen Mother." Vanilla replied with a bent knee.

Wei Qingqing quickly left Cining Palace under the escort of vanilla and walked all the way to Taihe Gate.

Wei Qingqing was finally able to leave the palace and return home, and the heart that the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan had been hanging on fell back to its original position.

Seeing that there were no idle people on the left and right, she couldn't help but complain to her henchman Mama Liu: "The emperor is really, those people in the Criminal Investigation Department and Dali Temple can be investigated, so I have to call Qingqing into the palace to do this offending thing!" ”

"Qingqing, this is the first child, and she is still Ye'er's first child, and the mourning family and the old princess are eager to raise her!"

The more Empress Dowager Xiaoduan spoke, the more she felt that Emperor Wu was ignorant, and her tone was slightly displeased, "The emperor is good, he summoned people to the mourning family into the palace with a single message, and let her deal with the dead with her stomach, which is really unlucky!" ”

How dare Mama Liu say that Emperor Wu is not?

She could only smile on the side, searching her stomach to find some good words to persuade the Queen Mother, "It is also our princess who has the ability, and the emperor specially summoned her into the palace to investigate the case. ”

Mama Liu said and offered a tea cup to the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan, "The old slave heard that this pregnant person should do more things he likes to do and make himself happy, which is also beneficial to the child in the womb!" ”

Wei Qingqing really likes to investigate cases, and she is meticulous and serious in investigating cases, which the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan sees in her eyes.

"What you said is reasonable," Empress Dowager Xiaoduan took a sip of the teacup, and then gradually calmed down, "That's it, she likes it herself!" Anyway, there is a mourning family in the harem, and she doesn't need to be afraid even if she offends people by investigating the case. ”

The master and servant of the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan were talking about themselves, but when they raised their eyes, they saw that Wei Qingqing had turned back again.

Empress Dowager Xiaoduan couldn't help but look surprised, sat up slightly straight and asked the herbs that sent Wei Qingqing out of the palace, "Why did you fold back?" But what important items were left behind? ”

Vanilla stepped forward with a solemn face and replied, "Returning to the Queen Mother, the slave maid sent the princess out of Cining Palace, and she was stopped by the imperial guards before she went far!" They said that by the emperor's order, the princess was asked to stay in Cining Palace for more time to accompany the queen mother. ”

"The Emperor's will?" The Empress Dowager Xiaoduan frowned slightly when she heard this, and she was very puzzled why Emperor Wu wanted to leave Wei Qingqing behind.

"That's what the imperial guards said, but they were under the emperor's dictation, and there was no holy decree in their hands." Vanilla replied.

The Empress Dowager Xiaoduan immediately sank her face, and her tone was quite displeased, "What does the emperor want?" What do you do when you detain people in the palace? ”

Mama Liu whispered on the side: "Could it be that the imperial guards made a mistake?" ”

At this time, Chen Jinbao suddenly asked to see him outside, saying that he had come to pass on Emperor Wu's message by order.

Empress Dowager Xiaoduan signaled the palace people to bring Chen Jinbao in, and as soon as Chen Jinbao came in, he passed an oracle from Emperor Wu, to the effect that Emperor Wu was sympathetic to Empress Dowager Xiaoduan's thoughts of her mother's relatives, and specially favored Princess Zhunrui to stay in Cining Palace to accompany Empress Dowager Xiaoduan.

actually said that the forcible detention was a piece of filial piety, and the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan was so angry that she almost got angry on the spot!

Empress Dowager Xiaoduan finally forcibly endured her anger, and planned to figure out the matter first before going to negotiate with Emperor Wu, "The mourning family knows, you can retreat!" ”

Chen Jinbao hurriedly bowed and retreated.

Wei Qingqing's mood was a little heavy after receiving Emperor Wu's command, and there was a vague sense of foreboding in her heart.

Could it be that Emperor Wu left her behind to kill her?

But Emperor Wu didn't know that Chen told her all the unknown secrets!

Wei Qingqing thought about it carefully, and felt that Emperor Wu could not be so narrow-minded, just because she knew the sporadic royal secrets, he ordered her to be detained in the palace.

After all, she is now considered the maiden family of the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan, and Ming Ye has always valued her very much in front of people...... Ming Ye is still fighting for Emperor Wu in the south right now, Emperor Wu doesn't look at the monk's face but also looks at the Buddha's face!

But if it weren't for those secrets, then why did Emperor Wu forcibly leave her in Cining Palace?

At this time, Empress Dowager Xiaoduan, who had pondered Emperor Wu's actions, suddenly spoke, her tone slightly heavy, "Isn't it Ye'er who has something to do in the south?" ”

Wei Qingqing was shocked when she heard this, and instantly understood the unfinished meaning of Empress Dowager Xiaoduan's words - could it be that something happened to Ming Ye leading the troops in the south, and Emperor Wu needed to detain her to warn and threaten Ming Ye?

Wei Qingqing's thoughts turned and he couldn't sit still, so he immediately stepped forward and knelt in front of the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan, "Niangniang, the concubine is willing to stay in Cining Palace to talk to you to relieve boredom, but the concubine is very worried about the prince in her heart, and I also ask Niangniang Niang to send someone to the south to inquire about the news, so that the concubine can stay in Cining Palace to raise the baby with peace of mind!" ”
