The sun was setting in the west, giving the entire palace a layer of golden color.
Cheng Ning stepped out across the threshold, walked around the yard, and then walked back into the hall.
After repeating it several times, Chunhua hurriedly greeted her: "Mother, are you looking for something?"
"No," Cheng Ning gently supported his lower abdomen: "I just don't know why, but I feel a little flustered today."
I can't read the book, and I feel restless while playing chess.
Quite uneasy.
There was nothing unusual when Wei Yanzhou left, but Cheng Ning kept thinking of his expression at that time.
And Wang Xi’s look.
There was nothing unusual about them, it seemed like they were just experiencing normal things.
Meng Xin came over in the afternoon. Cheng Ning tried to ask, but Meng Xin also looked unstable.
If something happened in the previous dynasty, Meng Xin would get some news.
She is not good at hiding things. If something really happened, she would not be so calm.
Later, Cheng Ning thought about it and said to her: "I've been feeling restless lately and my appetite is bad. Can you give me some pills for self-defense?"
Meng Xin was stunned, but she did not hesitate: "Okay, I just recently developed a kind of ready-to-take pills, which are made of some herbs. If you feel uncomfortable, take one urgently and then ask someone to notify me. "
Cheng Ning nodded.
But as the sun was about to set, her restlessness did not improve at all.
Chunhua didn't take it seriously: "It's getting hotter today. The sun has been shining all day. I'm sure your Majesty will be agitated. Why don't you prepare some fruit drinks?"
"Go prepare it," Cheng Ning agreed, and then said, "Send someone to Chengqian Palace."
"Empress, why are you going to Chengqian Palace?"
Cheng Ning pursed her lips: "Your Majesty must have been dealing with the affairs of the day and was very upset about the changes. If you ask someone to invite him, just tell him that Linhua Palace has prepared a meal and ask him to come and have a meal."
Are you actually going to invite your Majesty to have a meal?
This was the first time in the world. Cheng Ning had never shown attentiveness to Wei Yanzhou before.
Chunhua was unsure: "But Madam, what if Your Majesty doesn't come?"
"He will come."
Cheng Ning had to see Wei Yanzhou again, otherwise she might not be able to sleep tonight.
Seeing that she didn't want to comment, Chunhua nodded hurriedly. After giving instructions to the kitchen, he didn't rely on others, but went there himself.
When the last trace of sky disappeared from the horizon, Chunhua came back in a hurry and said: "Empress, Chengqian Palace replied that Your Majesty has arrangements for tonight and will not come to have a meal."
She said that His Majesty might not come, and she didn’t know why the Empress was so sure.
"Already have arrangements? Have you met Wang Xi?"
Even if a little palace maid like Chunhua went to the former court, she would not be able to see Wei Yanzhou.
And there are countless people serving in Chengqian Palace, so a chief steward like Wang Xi may not have time to see her.
"Not really," Chunhua shook his head: "It was Xiao Xiazi from Chengqian Palace who came back."
"You said you were invited by Linhua Palace?"
Chunhua nodded hurriedly: "Of course I said it. After he said that Your Majesty wouldn't come, I asked him to repeat it again, saying that Your Majesty wanted to see Your Majesty."
'Pop' Feeling that a string was broken, Cheng Ning took two steps back and sat back on the chair.
She vaguely felt that things were a bit difficult: "Your Majesty is not in the palace."
"Ah?" Chunhua was surprised, but obviously didn't believe it: "That shouldn't be the case. Xiao Xiazi went in twice to report it."
Cheng Ning was determined: "If he was in the palace, he would definitely come."
"Is it possible that he is going to Concubine Shu or Concubine Hui?"
Won't.
Cheng Ning was convinced in his heart.
Even if he decided to go to Concubine Shu and Cheng Ning asked her, why would he come over?
This is not because Cheng Ning is confident, but because she has seen through Wei Yanzhou's feelings for her out of hatred, and...
She pursed her lips and thought about the possibility of Wei Yanzhou leaving the palace.
Political affairs, the political affairs that the guard and Wang Xi reported.
What needs a guard to report?
If something happens to an official, it must be reported to the central government first, and then the internal servants will take charge of it.
If Wang Xi is not around, he will first present it to other chamberlains in Chengqian Palace.
Why did a guard come to report it in person?
But Cheng Ning didn't expect anything to happen.
She only felt that the panic in her heart seemed to be getting worse.
She even wanted Chunhua to go to Liyue Palace to see if she really thought wrong and Wei Yanzhou went to another palace?
But at this time, someone outside asked to see him.
It turned out to be sweet apricot.
He came at dusk, looking nervous and alert.
When Chunhua saw her coming in, he was not happy: "What are you here for? Is it on the Queen's order or on Concubine Hui's order?"
However, Concubine Hui failed in the draft today, so she shouldn't have the time to provoke her again.
Tianxing knelt down on her knees as soon as she came in. She didn't have the airs that made Chunhua submit to Xie Nianyao a few months ago.
She was as thin as a bamboo pole, and there were bruises on her face and exposed wrists. It was obvious that her life in Fengluan Palace was very difficult.
Cheng Ning didn't want to see her at first, but then she thought about it and stayed again.
She sat at the table and didn't call out: "Why did you come to me to see me?"
"Slave, I would like to ask your concubine to take you in. Life in Fengluan Palace is really unbearable. The two concubines are constantly fighting and scolding me. If I stay here any longer, I might as well die!"
She cried loudly and kowtowed on the ground again.
Chunhua was so angry that she shouted: "Dream it! How did you show off your power when you followed the queen, and how did you stumbling upon my mother-in-law? Have you forgotten it?"
She didn't even understand why Tian Xing came to Hua Palace with such a face and said such words.
"Or is this another conspiracy of yours? Last time, General Fu and my wife were not harmed. Are you going to use a new trick this time?"
Tianxing moved her direction and kowtowed to Chunhua: "Sister Chunhua, it's my fault. I was young and ignorant. Please don't argue with me."
"Bah, bah, bah! Don't worship me, it's bad luck!"
While Chunhua was hiding, she told Cheng Ning, "My dear, don't believe her."
The people who come out of their Xie Mansion are all jackals, tigers and leopards, and they should hide as far away as possible!
I just hope Cheng Ning won't be soft-hearted.
Cheng Ning was obviously not as excited as she was, and just looked at Tian Xing intently for a while.
Then she asked: "Why don't you go to Concubine Shu or Concubine Yi? Any other empress in this palace will have a better future than me?"
"No!" Tian Xing shook her head violently and said, "I have something that your Majesty wants, and I won't just say that I want to submit to you."
If you want people to accept you, you must do it with sincerity if you have done something wrong in the past.
She had been preparing for this day for a long time.
No matter Concubine Shu or Concubine Yi, she chose Cheng Ning right from the beginning!
"Oh," Cheng Ning's eyes became clearer: "You were already making preparations when you saw me on the palace road last time, right?"
When Tianxing saw her that time, she had already changed from her usual arrogant temperament.
At that time, I just thought that Xie Nianyao had lost power and she was temporarily at peace.
How could Tian Xing dare to hide anything at this time: "I dare not hide anything. It is indeed as the empress said."
"Okay, you, your idea is loud enough!" Chunhua said angrily: "My dear, don't believe her!"
