Chapter 160 - Emperor's Heart Unfathomable

It was a gloomy night.

When An Ran woke up, she heard the servant girl's report and pursed her lips.

The Third Sister-in-Law is really powerful!

If Third Sister-in-Law was able to take action, she would probably have been expelled from Prince Chu’s Mansion long ago.

Wei Qing had done her such a great favor, she decided that she would make sure to get Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian together.

In the dining hall.

Zuo Xinci had not appeared for a long time, and the impatience in her heart grew more and more.

But An Ran's expression was indifferent, "Let's wait a little longer!" Maybe she woke up late when she was still in Shang Shu Manor, and they're all family members, so she changed it slowly. "

There was only one rule of the Northern Kingdom, and that was that women should not fall asleep!

Especially this rich family's daughter, she absolutely could not afford to be lazy in sleep.

He had not lived together before, but no matter how Wei Chengfeng looked, he looked like a fairy. The moment he entered the door, he discovered so many problems with Zuo Xinci, so he naturally felt that he had been deceived!

Actually, Zuo Xinci had drank An Ran's orders last night to prepare some camouflage medicine, so it was no wonder that she had not woken up yet.

It had been a long time since Zuo Xinci came. Wei Chengfeng felt as if he had been slapped multiple times on the face.

"Princess, please have your meal first."

"It's good for Prince Consort to take a look!" An Ran smiled at him generously.

The effects of the sweat medicine wouldn't last long, Zuo Xinci should be able to wake up at this time.

As expected...

When Wei Chengfeng appeared in Zuo Xinci's room, he just happened to faintly open his eyes.

Looking into his eyes which were filled with "disappointment", Zuo Xinci was shocked.

In the past when she was in Shang Shu Manor, she had never woken up so late.

He secretly felt that it had something to do with peace!

However, she had once again provoked Wei Chengfeng's scolding.

Zuo Xinci felt that her brain was boiling after entering the Princess Mansion.

If An Ran wanted to make things difficult for her, she could deal with it.

However, now that even Wei Chengfeng was questioning her, she felt that she was even more alone.

After eating breakfast, An Ran went straight to the palace.

Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian had been forced by the empress dowager to stay in the Tzu Ning Palace to recuperate.

When peace arrived, Wei Qing was feeding Xiao Qingqian medicine.

"Your injury has already healed. Don't think that I don't know!" Wei Qing unhappily put down the medicine bowl. "Drink it yourself."

In these few days, Xiao Qingqian acted as if he had transformed into a different person, acting as if he was a scoundrel.

Wei Qing knew what he was thinking, but she already belonged to him!

The expression in Xiao Qingqian's eyes was somewhat lonely, as he lifted the medicine bowl and drank it all in one go.

An Xin pursed her lips, "Third brother is really amazing! If it were me, I would not be able to drink such a bitter medicine. "

Wei Qing snorted, "He did that on purpose!"

"Wei Qing!" Xiao Qingqian glared at her. This damned woman knew that he had taken her seriously, so she actually became even more confident and fearless.

Just at this moment, Nanny Qiu hurried in, his expression exceptionally unsightly. "Princess Chu, quickly go and see the empress dowager. It's such a headache!"

Wei Qing nodded.

The reason why the empress dowager had had such a headache was because the cold evil energy had invaded her body, and the imperial physicians were afraid of harming the empress dowager with a single needle, which was why they had been unable to treat her for so many years.

For the next few days, it was raining heavily. Ordinary people wouldn't think much of it, but for the Empress Dowager, the cold would worsen her illness.

Wei Qing and Nanny Qiu both went to the Inner Palace. Seeing the empress dowager groan in pain, Wei Qing did not care about the etiquette and directly went to check the empress dowager's pulse.

This meridian …

Wei Qing frowned.

Wei Qing felt that the empress dowager might have been infected by some kind of chronic poison, but she was unable to determine for a moment.

Seeing that Wei Qing's beautiful eyebrows were furrowed tighter and that the empress dowager's cries of pain were getting louder and louder, the Nanny Qiu hurriedly said, "Princess Chu, quickly help the empress dowager with the needles!"

Wei Qing shook her head. "Nanny Qiu, there's something different with the Empress Dowager's pulse right now.

"But the empress dowager is in so much pain!" The Nanny Qiu rushed to the bedside and held the empress dowager's hand tightly.

Her Majesty spoke for a long time after that.

Wei Qing quickly kneeled down. "Empress Dowager, please listen to Wife Sun's explanation!"

"The emperor has arrived!"

A chorus of voices came from outside, getting closer and closer.

He was dressed in bright yellow and his speed was extremely fast. When he saw that Wei Qing was present, but he didn't help treat the empress dowager, the Old Emperor raised his eyebrows.

"Wei Qing, why didn't you help the empress dowager treat her?" Old Emperor asked with a calm expression.

Wei Qing was about to explain when the empress dowager snorted, "Since you're angry at This Dowager … Hiss … "Then let's go!"

Old Emperor frowned even more, "What do you mean by that?"

The Nanny Qiu looked at Wei Qing and the empress dowager quickly, and said with some difficulty, "Princess Chu, the empress dowager has put in a lot of effort. How could you do this?"

Wei Qing was misunderstood by everyone now, but she had a clear conscience.

If the empress dowager was really poisoned, she could only injure the empress dowager if she gave her the needle right now.

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, please listen to Wife Sun's explanation!"

"Enough!" The Old Emperor looked impatient as he waved his arm. "I'm only asking you, should we give the empress dowager any acupuncture?"

Wei Qing was truly speechless, "Your Majesty …."

"Someone, come!"

"Father!"

With peace and tranquility supporting him, Xiao Qingqian arrived at the Inner Palace. Before he even entered the Inner Palace, he heard this stern shout.

"Father, if Wei Qing insists on not checking her pulse, there must be a reason, how can you not ask?" Xiao Qingqian asked.

Old Emperor had also heard the rumors these past few days. He looked at Xiao Qingqian and said, "We will make a decision on this matter!"

Wei Qing indeed had to be properly treated or else, in the future, she might even be able to pierce through the heavens!

"Third Sister-in-Law, explain it quickly!" The peace was not light.

Wei Qing said, "The empress dowager has been afflicted with a chronic poison, so she definitely cannot use a needle now!"

Boom — —

The originally cramped atmosphere at this moment was like a string that could no longer withstand the pressure and was stretched taut!

Everyone looked at Wei Qing in disbelief.

The Tzu Ning Palace was heavily guarded, how could they be poisoned?

Wei Qing was also confused now. She looked at Old Emperor with a determined gaze. "Your Majesty, this matter is not easy to alert!"

Old Emperor squinted his eyes. After musing for a moment, he lowered his voice and said: "Put Wei Qing temporarily in the Jin Zhao Mansion's dungeon!"

An Ran's breathing stagnated, "Royal father, the person who poisoned the medicine definitely could not be Third Sister-in-Law!"

Old Emperor looked at her with a profound gaze, "We will make our decision!"

Xiao Qingqian originally wanted to plead on Wei Qing's behalf, but after capturing the deep look that flashed past Old Emperor's eyes, he changed his mind.
