An Lingge looked at Imperial Noble Consort Li's innocent and innocent face, and the expression in her eyes was blurred.

The Imperial Noble Consort Li was different from the Madam Li. Her emotions were all hidden under that smiling face, and even her eyes did not reveal the slightest bit of her thoughts.

Facing such a powerful woman, An Lingyi had no choice but to focus even more.

She nodded in agreement to Imperial Noble Consort Li's suggestion, and a palace maid then led the few of them towards Brightheart Lake respectfully.

It was the beginning of spring. There were several small boats in the Brightheart Lake, and the water lilies that were planted had yet to bloom. With a single glance, one could tell that the surface of the lake was as clear as a mirror.

A cool breeze blew past, causing An Lingge to squint her eyes.

Imperial Noble Consort Li's voice resounded in her ears, light and pleasant, "In this entire palace, what I love the most is this Brightheart Lake."

She slowly walked to An Lingge's side with an intimate smile on her beautiful face.

"When I just entered the palace and was just a small palace maid, it was here that I met the Emperor."

An Lingge listened to her silently as she quietly observed her surroundings from the corner of her eyes.

A flash of ruthlessness could be seen in the eyes of the Madam Li, as her brows furrowed with the joy of winning the battle.

An Lingge sensed that something was wrong and subconsciously dodged to the side.

A slender figure fell over, splashing water everywhere in the calm Enlightening Mind Lake.

"Sister!" The Madam Li screamed, her face was anxious, "Didn't you see the young miss push the Imperial Noble Consort Li into the water? Hurry up and save them! "

When the palace maids saw this, their faces paled but they did not dare to delay any longer. Regardless of whether they knew how to swim or not, they immediately jumped into the Enlightening Mind Lake.

If anything were to happen to the Imperial Noble Consort Li today, according to the Emperor's favor, she would definitely vent her anger on these palace maids, and all of the palace maids here would be buried with them!

An Lingge's reaction was extremely fast, when the palace maids jumped, he leapt up and followed suit.

Fortunately, many of the palace maids present understood the situation and came up to save Imperial Noble Consort Li.

Imperial Noble Consort Li choked on a few mouthfuls of water, her beautiful face lost all color, and became pale, looking extremely weak.

"Quick, go get the imperial physician." Although the Madam Li looked to be panicking, she was actually not the least bit worried.

She and Imperial Noble Consort Li were blood-related sisters, so she naturally knew that her sister was extremely good at swimming and that nothing would happen to her.

Furthermore, this scene was something that they had planned, and it was all just to frame An Lingge.

Thinking about this, Madam Li couldn't help but look in An Lingge's direction.

"As for First Miss, the matter of you murdering Imperial Noble Consort Li, we'll deal with you when Imperial Noble Consort Li wakes up!"

The palace maids by her side were clever, in a blink of an eye, a red dressed palace maid stood up and respectfully said, "If anything happens to the Imperial Noble Consort, please wait here for a moment."

Madam Li had said that An Lingge was planning to murder Imperial Noble Consort Li, so she naturally could not leave at this time.

An Lingge's dark and deep eyes flashed a hint of understanding. No wonder she had felt that there was something strange about Imperial Noble Consort Li ever since she had met him. It was rare for Madam Li to not make things difficult for her like she usually did.

It turned out that the two of them had already planned this long ago, and were only waiting for him to jump into the circle.

Thinking about all this, An Lingge's heart calmed down, "If something happens in Imperial Noble Consort Li, I naturally have to stay, and only then will I be able to leave. But, Aunt pushed Imperial Noble Consort Li into the water one after another, is there any evidence? "

"Where is the evidence needed?" Madam Li sneered, and spoke in a righteous manner, "If it wasn't you who pushed Imperial Noble Consort Li down, could it be that she jumped down herself?"

"Before the Imperial Noble Consort Empress fell into the water, this servant saw that the Miss An had somehow moved closer to her, and even reached out her hand to push her away."

Hearing this, the other palace maids' expressions changed.

In a place like the palace where the Imperial Noble Consort was murdered, and in front of so many people's eyes at that, the Miss An was truly bold.

Unfortunately, Miss An's luck was bad, and was seen by the others, so Miss An had to suffer a lot.

An Lingge raised her eyebrows, she was not in a hurry, "Are you sure that you saw me pushing Imperial Noble Consort Li, and made him fall into the water?"

After being questioned by her, the red dressed lady looked a little wronged, "What does Miss An mean by this, could it be that this servant will wrongly accuse you?"

An Lingge smiled, her expression gentle and calm. "I'm just sure that after Imperial Noble Consort Li wakes up, she will prove my innocence.

Imperial Noble Consort Li will prove your innocence?

The red dressed palace maid looked at Madam Li's expression and firmly said, "This servant has seen everything with my own eyes."

"Alright, remember what you said." An Lingge nodded, and glanced at the unconscious Imperial Noble Consort Li.

"Hurry up and send this Imperial Noble Consort Li back to her chambers." Seeing that An Lingge was silent, the Madam Li hurriedly ordered for the people to return the Imperial Noble Consort Li to his room.

The imperial physician came very quickly. Considering how the Imperial Noble Consort Li was doted upon by the emperor, the imperial physician had to be very careful in diagnosis and treatment, lest there were any mistakes.

He frowned, feeling the strong and steady pulse of the Imperial Noble Consort Li, as if he did not want to lose consciousness in the water.

But there were too many unscrupulous things in the imperial harem. The imperial physician changed his mind and stroked his grizzled beard. He stood up and wrote down the prescription with a few strokes.

"When the Imperial Noble Consort's Empress fell into the water, her body would be in a weakened state. Follow this recipe to catch her medicine and take good care of her. After a few days, she will be fine."

The Madam Li hurriedly nodded her head, "Fortunately, the Imperial Noble Consort's mistress was saved in time. If she died because of Eldest Miss, how would I feel?"

She instructed a palace maid at the side, "Go ask the empress to come over. The eldest miss is planning to murder a concubine in the imperial harem, so she must be severely punished!"

When An Lingge heard that she had sent someone to ask for the empress, the corner of her mouth slightly hooked up.

It was a pity that Madam Li and Imperial Noble Consort Li had schemed arduously, and Imperial Noble Consort Li had even jumped into the water, in an attempt to frame him with a trick, their plan of tormenting him would eventually fail.

Just as An Lingge had expected, the Queen brought her people over the moment she heard about this.

Her face was round and round like a silver plate, and her eyes carried a sense of majesty. "Miss An, Madam Li said that you pushed Imperial Noble Consort Li into the water."

An Lingge shook her head, "Reporting to the Empress, this subject did not do such a thing."

The Madam Li's eyes were brimming with tears. "Esteemed Empress, please uphold justice for the Empress!"

"The Queen of Imperial Noble Consort invited Eldest Miss into the palace for a chat, and even brought Eldest Miss to enjoy the scenery at Brightheart Lake. Who would have known that Eldest Miss had evil intentions and pushed the Queen of Imperial Noble Consort into the water.
