As the queen finished speaking, Ji Lige on the couch suddenly opened her eyes and woke up, then rolled off the couch at a very fast speed, knelt on the ground with a "thump", and kowtowed heavily to the queen, "Queen, please spare my life, please spare my life!"

"An Dehai, pull that man down and beat him to death immediately!" The Queen ignored Ji Lige's plea and shouted at Eunuch An.

Eunuch An stepped forward to capture Ji Lige.

"Queen Dowager, save my life! Please, Queen Dowager, save my life, save the life of the baby in my belly!" Ji Lige hid from An Dehai and begged the Queen Dowager, "The baby in my belly belongs to the Third Prince! Please, Queen Dowager, save my life!"

"Shut up!" the queen scolded, "How dare you, a slut, slander the prince! You are the concubine of Prince Mu, how did you get pregnant with Qi'er's child? You dare to confuse the royal bloodline, your crime is even more serious!"

"If you dare to resist again, I will kill all your clans! An Dehai, what are you still standing there for? Drag him away and beat him to death!"

"Your Highness, Your Highness! Please save me! Say something! The child in my belly is yours!" Ji Lige hugged Helian Qi's legs tightly and begged bitterly.

"mother……"

"An Dehai!" The Queen interrupted Helian Qi.

Eunuch An grabbed Ji Lige, tied her hands behind her back, and forced her out the door.

"Stop!" The Queen Mother put the cup heavily on the table and stared at the Queen. "I didn't know since when did the Queen have the final say in Shoukang Palace?"

"Mother..." The Queen frowned and looked at her, wanting to explain, "This palace..."

"If the queen wants to kill someone, go back to your palace! It's not your turn to make decisions in my Shoukang Palace!" The queen mother interrupted her coldly, "Wei Tian, ​​kick that person out!"

"How can you be so arrogant in front of me? Is this how a servant should be? I didn't know that a mere servant of the Pepper Palace could ignore me!"

"Plop!" Eunuch An knelt down suddenly. "I dare not, I dare not! I am guilty, please punish me, Queen Mother!"

He was trembling all over, he was really scared.

After all, this is the Queen Mother.

He had been caned 20 times before, and now he was disrespectful to the Queen Mother. If his life was really taken, he would have to accept it. And even the Queen couldn't save him.

The corners of the queen's lips twitched fiercely, and her eyes were bursting with rage and full of murderous intent.

Damn Ji Lige! He actually used this trick on her!

What made her most angry was Helian Qi!

She had spent so much energy on him, but he was so disappointing! He was actually led by such a lowly servant.

At this moment, he seemed to be stupid and had no reaction at all.

At this time, shouldn't he deny his relationship with this bitch?

She was so disappointed!

And this damn old woman is confronting her again!

At this moment, the queen had an urge to kill people.

But she finally suppressed the murderous intent, and the last bit of rationality allowed her to slowly calm down.

She took a deep breath, raised a faint smile, and looked at the Queen Mother respectfully, "Please forgive me, my concubine had no intention of contradicting you. I was really mad at this bitch and lost my mind."

"I hope that your Majesty will not blame me. I just care too much about the royal bloodline and the emperor's reputation."

"This Ji Lige was given to Master Mu by me as a reward. I sent her to Marquis Dingyuan's residence a month ago. She is Master Mu's concubine, and it was the Master's wife who agreed to let Master Mu take her as a concubine."

"Now she is speaking wildly, slandering Qi'er that the baby in her belly is Qi'er's. This is disrespectful to Qi'er and to Master Mu!"

"Such a shameless, despicable person deserves to be killed! I hope my mother will not be fooled by her sweet words."

"No, no, no! Queen Mother, please know clearly that the child in my belly is indeed the Third Prince's." Ji Lige said anxiously.

At this time, she no longer cared about etiquette, she just wanted to survive. And only the Queen Mother could save her life.

"Before I entered the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, I was already his Third Prince's person. After I entered the mansion, Prince Mu never touched me."

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please save this slave! Save our child! Your Highness, this is your child, your own flesh and blood!"

She let go of Helian Qi's legs, crawled towards the Queen Mother, and kowtowed heavily, "Queen Mother, everything I said is true! The child in my belly is really your Third Prince! This is your great-grandson, your first great-grandson!"

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, please save your great-grandson!"

The queen felt as if her throat was being strangled, making it difficult for her to breathe.

A "great-grandson" would certainly soften the Queen Mother's heart. After all, the royal heir was missing, and Concubine Yue had just lost a child some time ago.

The Queen Mother would never let anything happen to her great-grandson again.

"Helian Qi!" The Queen Mother shouted Helian Qi's name harshly.

Hearing this, Helian Qi shuddered and came back to his senses, "Grandmother."

"You have nothing to say? Ah!" The Queen Mother glared at him.

"Grandson..."

"Qi'er, think it through!" The Queen interrupted him, her eyes filled with warning, "The royal bloodline cannot be wrong! Do you want to be a sinner of the royal family?"

"..." Helian Qi opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this moment, his mind was in a fuzzy state.

He knew very well that the child in Ji Lige's belly was his. But he also knew the warning in his mother's words to him at this moment.

If he acknowledged the baby in Ji Lige's belly, it would be tantamount to acknowledging their mother and son's plan against Mu Shaochen.

What was his intention in giving his own woman to Mu Shaochen?

If the emperor knew about this, then...

Helian Qi shuddered coldly and dared not think any further.

"Grandmother, my grandson has nothing to do with her!" After exerting his power, Helian Qi made a decision.

She was just a woman, he had no choice but to give her what he wanted. She was just a slave, and a slave with evil intentions, she deserved no death.

Ji Lige raised his head suddenly and looked at him in disbelief, his eyes full of shock.

She couldn't believe her ears, it was Helian Qi who said this.

He had promised her that he would let her enter the palace, but he could not give her the position of principal wife. He could only make her a concubine first. After she gave birth to a child, he would promote her to be a concubine.

Now that she is pregnant, he wants to kill them and their child!

"My grandson and I went to Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion today to visit Miss Mu who was frightened yesterday, but I didn't expect that this slut would set up a relationship with her." Helian Qi said in a serious tone, "Before today, my grandson had never met her, so how could he have made her pregnant! I hope the Empress Dowager can investigate!"

"You..." Ji Lige looked at him with horror and despair.

"The Emperor has arrived!" A voice begging for release came from outside the door.
