When the emperor heard the news and rushed to the Jiaofang hall, concubine Ning had been beaten to the death.

She lay on the ground, her clothes on her back soaked in blood, and looked miserable.

The emperor immediately asked someone to help Princess Ning up.

"Take her back to Yanyu palace and let the imperial doctor show her."

Duke Liu replied respectfully, "here."

He personally took concubine Ning back to Yanyu palace.

The queen of the Qin Dynasty got up and saluted. The standard of action was like measuring with a ruler, so that people couldn't pick out any defects.

"My concubine, I'd like to see your majesty."

The emperor frowned and asked, "what mistake did Princess Ning make? Why did you blame her?"

Empress Qin asked coldly, "shouldn't she be punished for poisoning the prince?"

"What do you mean?"

The empress of the Qin emperor told the story again. The maid pearl came forward with a silk handkerchief in which the round jade pendant was placed.

The Emperor didn't know the jade pendant, but he knew that the queen wouldn't cheat him on such a thing that she could know the truth.

The emperor said in a deep voice, "even if this jade pendant is really from concubine Ning, it can't prove that she instigated Epiphyllum to poison and murder the crown prince. The truth has not been found out. Are you not afraid of falling on concubine Ning?"

The empress of the Qin emperor said faintly, "if your majesty feels that the way of concubines is biased, you can remove them from the position of Queen and put them in the cold."

"You!"

The emperor was obviously very angry and stared into her eyes.

"Don't think I dare not touch you!"

The empress of the Qin emperor spread out his arms: "my concubine is here. If you don't like my concubine, you can do it at any time."

The emperor clenched his teeth and said, "wait for me!"

Then he brushed his sleeve angrily and left.

The empress of the Qin emperor bowed unhurriedly and said, "my concubine, you are welcome to your majesty."

When the emperor was far away, pearl got up from the ground and carefully advised, "empress, why do you have to? You are married to your majesty. As long as you make things clear to your majesty, your majesty may not be on your side."

"Make a husband and wife?" empress Qin seemed to hear a joke, smiled gently, and the laughter was full of sarcasm.

Between her and him, from the beginning to the end, there was no husband and wife relationship at all.

Not before, not now, not in the future.

……

The news that concubine Ning was beaten soon spread in the palace.

Baoqin told the story vividly.

She saw that the master was still trying to eat melon seeds. She didn't mean to express her ideas at all, so she had to take the initiative to speak.

"Little Lord, why don't you talk?"

Xiao Xi asked, "what do you want me to say?"

Baoqin said excitedly, "in the face of such a cruel struggle in the harem, shouldn't you be inspired to strive for favor and win the position of crown princess? Only when you become the crown princess can you become the queen in the future. Only when you become the queen, you don't have to be as pitiful as Princess Ning."

"Where is Princess Ning pitiful?"

"Isn't it pathetic enough that she was beaten like that?"

Xiao Xixi said lazily, "she did it for herself. If she didn't have extra thoughts, she wouldn't annoy the queen, let alone provoke such a severe beating. So, it's better to be a salted fish. Don't think about anything or fight for anything. Just lie comfortably at home and wait for death."

Baoqin hates iron but not steel. Her master is really not up to standard!

Just then, Luo QingHan stepped in.

His sudden appearance startled Xiao Xixi and Baoqin. They quickly bent their knees and saluted.

Luo QingHan looked at Xiao Xi meaningfully and asked.

"You married to the East Palace just to eat and die?"
