Aunt An's heart chuckled, it turned out that she didn't think too much.

"What's wrong?"

"At noon, Xiuzhu went to Xiyan Palace, and gave a box of pastries to Concubine Shu, saying that it was rewarded by the queen."

"How is it possible, I have been with the queen all morning, and the mother has never seen Xiuzhu at all, let alone rewarded pastries."

Suddenly, Xin'er hurriedly walked into the inner hall, looking a little flustered.

"The queen is taking a lunch break, so frizzy, and you collided with the mother, can you afford it?" Ginkgo whispered.

"Ginkgo girl, something has happened to Xiyan Palace." Xin'er said in horror.

"What's going on?" Ling Xi walked out of the inner room, she didn't fall asleep at all at noon, thinking of Ye Muzhi, her heart hurt non-stop, tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep.

"Queen Niangniang, Concubine Shu's abdomen pain did not stop in the afternoon, the imperial doctor and His Majesty went to Xiyan Palace, and I heard that Concubine Shuniang was poisoned." Xin'er said cautiously.

"Poisoning, how is it possible?" Ling Xi asked.

"I heard that Concubine Shu's mother ate the pastries sent by Sister Xiuzhu today, and she had abdominal pain, and Sister Xiuzhu said that she was ordered by the queen to deliver the pastries." Xin'er's voice became smaller and smaller, but Ling Xi could hear every word clearly.

"Xiuzhu, where is Xiuzhu?" Ling Xi asked loudly.

"Sister Xiuzhu was just taken away by the internal guards, saying that she was brought to the internal guard mansion." Xin'er whispered.

"The Interior Guard?" Ling Xi frowned, she hadn't heard of such a place in the harem.

"Empress Niang, the Inner Guard Mansion is Your Majesty's imperial institution, and it is a ubiquitous spy in Yicheng, including the Imperial Palace. The Inner Guard Mansion is in the Outer Imperial City, but whoever enters the Inner Guard Mansion will not come out alive. Aunt An whispered.

Ling Xi suddenly slumped in her chair, her mind went blank, and the disaster had quietly befallen her.

……

A ray of sunset sprinkled on Ling Xi's white plain clothes, Ling Xi knelt down in front of the Flying Feather Palace, in this cold winter, this trace of warmth from Ling Xi's skin drilled into her body, but unfortunately her body was extremely cold, she could no longer feel the warmth of the stars.

For several days, Ling Xi was grounded in the Jiaofang Hall by Xiang Hongxuan, although Feng Yingying's poison, with the desperate efforts of the imperial doctors, has been almost solved, and she has no worries about her life, but Feng Yingying's child was not saved in the end, Xiang Hongxuan was angry, and soon gave Ling Xi an order to be grounded.

The people in the harem are speculating that Xiang Hongxuan is going to abolish the queen again. But Xiang Hongxuan didn't take any other actual action except to ban her, which means that at least Xiang Hongxuan wasn't sure that she did it.

She has been kneeling in front of the Feiyu Hall since noon, she is asking Xiang Hongxuan to take off the hairpin, she knows that she has been grounded, and coming to the Feiyu Hall to ask for guilt like this will anger Xiang Hongxuan, but she can't take care of so much, she can't sit still in the Jiaofang Palace, she wants to gamble, bet on the suspicion in Xiang Hongxuan's heart, she may have a trace of vitality.

"Queen Mother, Your Majesty invites you to enter the inner hall." Xiao Dezi walked up to Ling Xi and said respectfully.

A smile leaked from Ling Xi's frozen face, she struggled to get up from the ground, she was a little unsteady, she swayed, and Xiao Dezi hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

Ling Xi's hands trembled violently, she didn't know if it was because of the cold or because of her nervous heart.

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Ling Xi politely pushed away Xiao Dezi's arm and walked firmly into the inner hall.

Xiang Hongxuan sat in the inner hall, he looked at Ling Xi, who was pale, could she have done this? Xiang Hongxuan's heart was mixed.
