When Chu Junyi and Shen Ninghua settled everything here, there was a burst of noise outside.

In the crowd, Bu Jinglan frowned slightly, waving the folding fan in his hand slowly in an absent-minded manner.

When he arrived at the backyard, he saw Shen Ninghua and Chu Junyi standing side by side. The expression in his eyes suddenly sank, and the smile on his lips froze. After a long while, he sighed slightly. It seemed that Bu Tinghe's plan had failed. Not only had it failed, but she had also probably entrapped herself. Well, she really went for wool and came home shorn.

Seeing the scene in the courtyard, many people exclaimed, "Heavens, what is going on?"

There were more than a dozen corpses on the ground, each of them wearing the same clothes and using the same weapons. At a glance, one could tell that they were accomplices.

Everyone looked at Shen Ninghua and Chu Junyi. Could it be that they were here to assass

    Bu Tinghe and Bu Jinglan had just come to an agreement and intended to make a careful plan. This time they were determined not to let Chu Junyi and Shen Ninghua control the situation. But before they could come up with a plan, a piece of news disrupted their agenda.A man dressed like a guard whom they had never seen before came to deliver an oral edict from Baili Qingcang. "Sixth Prince and Princess Wenhe, His Majesty wants you to enter the Palace immediately."Bu Jinglan's fingers suddenly trembled, and a bad premonition arose in his heart. "It's already so late. Thank you for coming all the way. May I know why His Majesty asked to see us?""You will know once you enter the Palace."Seeing that the imperial guard dared to be so disrespectful to him, Bu Jinglan did not get angry. Instead, his heart became more and more uneasy. His gaze swept over the imperial guard and when he saw the token hanging on the guard's waist, his

    Baili Qingcang suddenly turned his head and stared at Zhao Huiying coldly. The chilly light pierced the bottom of her heart. "Empress, make sure you answer my questions truthfully!"Zhao Huiying was not asked to stand up. Therefore, she could only kneel on the ground and raise her head to look at Baili Qingcang. Her expression was exceptionally calm and firm. Her eyes stared fixedly at Baili Qingcang without the slightest hesitation or concealment."Yes, Your Majesty, I will tell you everything I know.""Alright, then let me ask again. Did Consort Yun have any child?""No!""When Consort Yun committed suicide, were you at the scene?""When I arrived, the place was already on fire.""Then you were not at the scene. How did you know that she was not pregnant?""Consort Yun's monthly periods were recorded clearly. I remember that it was recorded by a Nanny Lan by her side. Con

    Baili Qingcang tried two times and finally stood up from the throne. He looked at Bu Yunqing, who had a hunched back like an old woman. His eyes were filled with disbelief. "Yunqing...You are Yunqing?"Bu Yunqing trembled all over. She slowly raised her head and looked at the high and mighty Emperor. "Your Majesty, the Empress has not changed, but you have aged a lot. I think the life in the Palace is not that good, right?"Baili Qingcang found it hard to believe that the old woman in front of him was actually the once gorgeous Princess Yunqing, but that sense of familiarity was obvious. "Didn't a palace servant help you escape? Why did you become like this?"Bu Yunqing suddenly laughed. "Haha, you think I'm ugly and scary now? That's right. When I first entered the Palace, I was in the prime of my youth. Now that twenty years have passed, I have become an ugly old woman. It's natural that you find it hard to accept."Baili

    The Crown Prince Baili Jinyi kicked the eunuch away who was guarding the door. The scene in the hall suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. He almost couldn't believe his eyes.Baili Qingcang was grabbing his mother's neck with a face full of wrath. The killing intent in his eyes was so strong that it was suffocating."Father Emperor!" Baili Jinyi quickly ran forward and knelt on the ground. "Father Emperor, no matter what Mother Empress has done to make you angry and misunderstand her, she is the Empress. You can't kill her like this. Please show mercy to her, Father Emperor!"Baili Qingcang was in fury. Seeing Baili Jinyi falling in front of him, he raised his foot and kicked at him. "Get lost!"The furious kick was so powerful that Baili Jinyi was kicked a meter away. He covered his chest in pain and almost suffocated. However, he continued to plead, "Father Emperor, calm down, please calm down. Mother Empress is almost

    Shen Ninghua suddenly felt warmth on her body. She turned around and saw the cloak draped over her shoulders. A smile flashed across her eyes. "You finished talking?"Chu Junyi nodded. "Well, too many things happened today. It is not suitable to have a long talk. I told mother that I will go to the Palace to have a good chat with her another day."Shen Ninghua nodded. "Well, let's go back. It's getting late."Chu Junyi paused for a moment and then looked at Shen Ninghua apologetically. "I was so happy that I forgot you have been busy for the entire day. Let's go."Pregnant women were easier to get tired. This day was filled with shock and terror and was really tiring. Shen Ninghua nodded and did not try to be brave.After getting on the carriage, Shen Ninghua leaned into Chu Junyi's arms and soon fell asleep. Chu Junyi held her in his arms, and the guilt in his eyes became more obvious. He did not wake her up af

    It was no longer a secret that Noble Consort Xian and the Empress were not on good terms with each other. Today, at Prefectural Prince Yi's banquet, Noble Consort Xian and the Zhao Family's patriarch crossed swords. The other officials were unwilling to participate, so they lowered their heads and drank silently. For a moment, it seemed that there was a shortage of wine.However, Bu Yunqing knew that it was Baili Junyi's promotion ceremony banquet now, so she wouldn't make the scene too embarrassing. Seeing that Zhao Kun sat on his seat with an ashen face and didn't dare to make a sound, she restrained her anger and whispered to Shen Ninghua beside her.At this time, inside Ningkun Palace, Meixue tidied up the porcelain pieces on the ground and brought another bowl of swallow nest porridge. "Your Majesty, calm down. Being angry is bad for your health."Zhao Huiying glanced at the bowl and the anger in her eyes became even fiercer. "White

    Seeing the smile on Shen Ninghua's lips, Bai Ruo stepped forward and said, "Miss, you seem to be in a very good mood. Is there anything to be happy about?""It's nothing. I just had a good dream last night."Seeing Shen Ninghua reached out to caress her belly, Bai Ruo knew that her dream must have something to do with the baby. "Did you dream of Little Master? Doctor Chen just happened to be here and is waiting outside to check your pulse.""Quickly invite Doctor Chen in."After Chen Yun saluted, he carefully checked her pulse. After a while, a smile appeared on his face. "Congratulations. If I'm not wrong, this is a boy."At the side, Bai Ruo was filled with joy. No matter it was a boy or a girl, they were all happy. But things were different now. In the past, Shen Ninghua was a princess, and Chu Junyi as the imperial son-in-law could not have concubines. But now that he became a prince, he could have two side

Listen to your tone as if you are not afraid of death, but your eyes tell this palace that you are afraid.""Oh, I would be afraid of you?"Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, a cold smile flashed in her eyes, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, after all, you're also Prince De's rightful consort, I'll have someone send you back, and Tai Consort Qi and Prince De will naturally settle you down properly."Thinking of the desperate scene of being locked inside the empty room before, Bu Yonghan's body shuddered violently, "I'm not going back, I'm not going back!""It'

Even to the serious speculation, Tu Su family is the nail that the Great Yue State has planted on our side."Baili Junyi gazed in contemplation, "What you said is extremely possible, a family that has developed a bit too legendary, moreover, if the Tusu family has no other purpose, why would they be so eager to control the courtiers and make a name for themselves?"Shen Ninghua nodded, "If what we've guessed is true, then the mind of the Tu Su family is simply too terrifying."If not for Baili Junyi's deep affection for her, then the Tu Su family's plan to have Tu Su Qingli approach him could have succeeded.
