Qixia Palace

That night, Xingnan couldn't sleep. She didn't know what was happening outside, and she was still struggling with whether or not to tell the eldest emperor's wife the truth.

Daji pushed open the door and came to her bedside quickly. He looked at her sitting on the bed, looked her up and down, then waved his arms and said fiercely:

"This man named Ning deserves to die. He dares to do such a thing to you. Let's go back to Nanping Kingdom now. Let's ask our father to raise an army. We will kill this place to pieces and flatten the Ning Kingdom Palace."

"Brother, what happened? Don't worry, just listen to me first."

"You don't need to go into details. Brother already knows about your matter, and now most of the people in the palace know about it. Don't worry, Brother Huang will make the decision for you. Let's go back to Nanping Kingdom now."

"Brother, that's not the case..."

She wanted to tell Daji the truth clearly, but Daji didn't give her this chance at all.

He shouted directly to the girl outside:

"Come here, pack your things and inform the precious concubine that we will return to Nanping Country immediately."

After explaining, he looked at Xingnan again,

"We have to go. In order to let you take the position of queen, the little emperor's sister-in-law went so far as to poison the queen. It's unclear how the emperor of Daning will punish her now, but I think the people of Daning seem to be worried about this. We had taken precautions a long time ago. She fell into the trap and is now imprisoned in the sky prison. Although it was her own fault, there is no guarantee that it will not affect us. Xingnan, let us leave here quickly and return to our Nanping country. You Don’t worry, with my brother here, nothing will happen to you.”

"What's wrong with the little princess?"

"She was imprisoned in the sky prison. Didn't you hear what I just said?"

Being imprisoned in jail? how so? She didn't want to marry the emperor of Daning Kingdom, so why did she insist on doing so stubbornly?

She gritted her teeth and shook her head vigorously.

"Brother, I don't want to leave, I want to stay here. I like Brother Ning."

"Why do you like him? He hurt you this time. The emperor of Daning Kingdom has ordered him to be imprisoned and he will be beheaded soon. For the sake of your reputation, you must not mention this matter to anyone again. Just Act like this never happened.”

"Why is he locked up? I want to find reason with the emperor of Daning Kingdom..."

As soon as she finished saying this, Qin Shun's voice came from outside,

"The Emperor is here!"

Daji's brows suddenly frowned. The emperor rarely came to Qixia Palace. So many things happened last night, and he came today. There must be nothing good going on.

Thinking of this, he put his hands on Xingnan's shoulders and warned with a solemn expression:

"Xingnan, no matter what the emperor asked for a while, you insisted that it was the man named Ning who bullied you, and you did not do it out of your own free will. Remember?"

Just when Xingnan was at a loss, Leng Yu had already walked in with the imperial doctor, and Yongping, who learned the news, also followed.

She quickly came to Leng Yu and asked,

"Your Majesty, why did you bring so many people here so early in the morning?"

Leng Yu glanced at Xingnan, and then said to Yongping:

"I brought the imperial doctor to diagnose Princess Xingnan's pulse."

Yongping immediately turned cold.

"Your Majesty, you brought so many people and mobilized the troops. You didn't want to treat Xingnan, but you wanted to embarrass her, right?"

Leng Yu hurriedly waved his hands to these servants,

"Everyone retreats, Doctor Wang remains."

Seeing this, Xingnan shook his head timidly.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I'm not sick, so I don't need to look at you."

Leng Yu looked at Xingnan curled up on the bed, clasped his fists at the angry Prince Daji and said:

"This Dr. Wang is the most skilled person in the Imperial Hospital. He has a very strict mouth and is a trustworthy person. Now that something like this has happened to Princess Xingnan, I am deeply disturbed. I specially called the imperial doctor to check her pulse. , after this matter is confirmed, I will punish the wrong person."

Leng Yu's words made Yongping take a few steps forward in dissatisfaction.

"What does the emperor mean by this? Do you suspect that this matter is false? Does Princess Xingnan have to use her innocence to frame others?"

Princess Xingnan knew she was in the wrong. She squeezed the corner of the quilt with both hands and wrapped herself in the quilt shivering. She hated herself for being playful and saying such things, but she didn't want to be taken for granted. Really.

Once the doctor puts his hand on her pulse, her lie will be exposed. How should she explain it then? Everyone will say that she is a liar and look down upon her. What should she do? How on earth is she going to end this situation?

Seeing Yongping's ugly face, Leng Yu replied nonchalantly:

"Of course I won't doubt Princess Xingnan. I brought the imperial doctor to check her pulse out of good intentions. Why would the eldest sister blindly stop her?"

"I……"

Yongping hesitated and waved his hand.

"Okay, you can ask the imperial doctor to check her pulse, but I have to say beforehand that once this thing comes true, the emperor will never let that person named Ning go easy."

"That's natural. I have already thought about it. If he really did such a thing, I will definitely let him be quartered and his head divided into families, as an apology to Princess Xingnan."

When Leng Yu said this, Xingnan was thinking about that scene in her mind, and she suddenly shook her head vigorously in fear,

"No, you can't do this to Brother Ning."

Hearing these words, the corners of Leng Yu's mouth raised slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.

Seeing that Xingnan was very resistant, Daji immediately stepped forward, patted her on the shoulder and comforted her:

"Xingnan, I know that you were frightened by him. Don't worry, the emperor of Daning Kingdom will make the decision for you, and your imperial brother will also make the decision for you. Now let the imperial doctor check it for you. After the investigation, we Just go back to Nanping Country."

"No, no need to check. I'm not sick, no need to check."

"Xingnan is obedient. The imperial doctor only checked the pulse. He will be cured soon."

As he spoke, Daji was about to pull her quilt, but she suddenly shouted hysterically:

"You all go out, I'm not sick, no need to check."

Yong Ping, who was standing aside, saw this and came to her bedside, comforting her softly:

"Xingnan, if we don't let others check, how can we prove that what we say is true? But don't worry, no one else will know about this except these few people in the room. Be good and reach out your hand."

Xingnan retracted his hand into the quilt, biting it to death and not wanting to take it out.

Her look reminded Leng Yu of what Luo Lan had said and Xiao Ningzi's innocent expression just now. It seemed that the pregnancy was indeed false?

Thinking of this, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, then said seriously:

"Since Princess Xingnan is unwilling to let the imperial doctor diagnose her pulse, I will follow Princess Yongping's wishes and execute Xiao Ningzi at 3:00 noon today. In order to avoid my selfishness, I will ask Princess Yongping to take Xingnan to the throne later. Princess Nan and Prince Daji went to supervise the execution in person."

After leaving these words, he said to Dr. Wang:

"Thank you, the royal physician, please go back first!"

Princess Xingnan's mind kept flashing the scene of Xiao Ningzi being beheaded, and she immediately let out a painful cry,

"No, you can't kill him."

Yongping hurriedly stepped forward and tried to cover her mouth, but Xingnan dodged it. She yelled again:

"Xingnan, beheading him is already a minor crime. The crime he committed should be punished with death. The emperor's sister-in-law knows that you are kind-hearted, but you can't speak for him, a sinner!"

"It's not like this, it's not like this. He is right. I'm sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn't have made up lies to lie to you. It was my fault. I am not pregnant at all. I just want to get back at him. This matter is really related to He’s okay.”

As soon as Xingnan's words came out, everyone present was stunned. Leng Yu looked at her solemnly,

"Princess Xingnan, this matter is no joke. Can't you lie to protect Xiao Ningzi?"

Xingnan bit his lip and stretched out his arm.

"If you don't believe me, let the imperial doctor check my pulse. I'm really not pregnant. I just lied to the emperor's wife out of fun. I didn't want her to take it seriously. Brother Ning really didn't bully me. He really didn't."

Her words made Yongping look livid with anger, Daji looked embarrassed, and Leng Yu signaled to Dr. Wang:

"To show Lord Ning's innocence, please ask Dr. Wang to diagnose Princess Xingnan's pulse."
