After dawn, news of Concubine Xian's confession generally spread throughout the palace.

Concubine Ning stayed up for half the night because she ate a roast chicken in the middle of the night, and finally fell asleep.

"Niangniang, wake up, something happened!"

Concubine Ning opened her eyes with difficulty, hiccups with the smell of roast chicken, and she woke up agitatedly: "What's the matter?"

The maid looked happy: "Concubine Xian has pleaded guilty, it's the princess she killed—"

"Wait a minute, Concubine Xian has pleaded guilty?" Concubine Ning rubbed her temples and hurriedly asked for details.

The palace maid danced with eyebrows and said, "It is said that Concubine Xian was talking in her sleep in the middle of the night and told the story of her harming the princess. After being heard by the palace maid at night, she reported it to the emperor..."

Ning Fei was stunned.

Sleep confession? How does this sound bizarre?

Thinking about her decision to eat roast chicken last night and the broken jar, Ning Fei stroked her full stomach.

Sure enough, life is impermanent, fortunes and misfortunes are unpredictable, and people have to live in the moment.

"Serve this palace to wash." Concubine Ning felt refreshed and did not forget to instruct the palace maid, "At lunch, remember to tell the imperial kitchen to add a plate of roast goose to Chunhua Palace."

The palace maid hurriedly responded: "Yes."

Last night, when she watched Empress eating roast chicken, she thought that Empress was under too much pressure and was a little scared. Now that she thinks about it, it is fortunate that Empress couldn't sleep because of eating roast chicken, otherwise if she said something inappropriate in her sleep like Concubine Xian - the consequences would be unimaginable!

After Concubine Ning finished washing up, she hurriedly went to Kunning Palace to greet the Queen (for information).

When King Qi received the news, he was stunned, and followed the inner servant into the palace.

Entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, King Qi Muran greeted Emperor Jing Ming: "My son has seen his father—"

Tired of the house and Wu, Emperor Jing Ming didn't bother to look at King Qi, so he turned his back to him and said coldly, "Go and see Ji's family, then leave the palace quickly, don't stay for long."

King Qi shuddered, bowed his head and said, "Yes."

King Qi followed the inner servant Shen and Qian to Yuquan Palace, a road that was obviously very familiar, but felt a little unfamiliar.

The huge Yuquan Palace is almost invisible, only the wind blowing and the swaying flower shadows.

This palace, which used to be full of flowers, seems to have suddenly died and become lifeless.

King Qi opened his mouth to ask the inner servant, but the inner servant who was leading the way lowered his head and didn't mean to say much.

He had to swallow all his doubts and finally saw Concubine Xian in a relatively remote room.

This is a temporary morgue.

Concubine Xian was lying upright, described as withered and pale, and had long since lost her anger.

"Mother concubine—" King Qi plopped down and knelt down, reaching out to hold Concubine Xian's hand.

That cold hand made Qi Wang really realize that the mother and concubine who had been protecting him and loving him had really left.

Staring at Concubine Xian's face, King Qi murmured, "Concubine Mother, what happened? Why did you go so suddenly—"

Naturally no one answered his words.

The maid reminded: "My lord, you have to hurry up, Ji Shi will be sent out of the palace later-"

King Qi suddenly looked at the servant and said angrily, "Is the Ji family someone you can call?"

The inner servant lowered his eyes and explained: "The lord may not know yet that Ji's family was demoted to the common people for murdering Princess Fuqing and the fourteenth princess, and they cannot be buried in the imperial tomb—"

He was allowed to explain these words to King Qi from above.

"What?" King Qi was shocked and looked at the lifeless Concubine Xian.

That face was still a familiar face. From childhood to adulthood, it represented love and meticulous care to him. At this moment, King Qi felt a little unfamiliar, and then a trace of resentment grew from the bottom of his heart.

Mother, is this crazy? Why did Hao Duan kill the thirteenth and fourteenth sisters?

It's just two princesses, what's the benefit to him by killing them?

Concubine mother like this will only make the father and emperor hate him even more, and let him have no chance at all.

Not being favored by the emperor, this is a heavy blow to the prince who wants to fight for the crown prince but is not a direct prince.

The reason why many courtiers who are preparing to stand in line choose to wait and see.

If it is not the direct prince, there will be no ministers who will argue with the emperor in order to support orthodoxy. If you don't have the heart of the emperor, the courtiers will support you after eating too much.

It is also because of this that Concubine Xian took the risk and was willing to be used by the Queen Mother, hoping to die and live. Because she knew that her son, who was rejected by the emperor, would never have another chance, unless she had the help of a huge external force.

But King Qi didn't understand, at this moment there was only confusion and resentment towards Concubine Xian.

"Did I make a mistake? My mother-in-law has a good heart and can't bear to trample even an ant to death. How could she harm anyone?"

The waiter sneered in his heart.

Kindness? How many good-hearted people can survive in this cannibalistic harem? Thanks to these slaves, they thought that Concubine Xian was good, but now it seems that there is no exception.

"My lord, this was admitted by the Ji family."

King Qi looked at the servant with a stunned expression. After a while, he covered his face and wept, "Concubine Mother, you are confused, it's your son's fault. If your son comes to see you more, you won't be distracted..."

The waiter waited for a while and reminded: "Your Highness, it's time for you to go."

King Qi cried and kowtowed to Concubine Xian a few times before getting up and leaving.

After leaving the Yuquan Palace, King Qi did not go out with the servant, but went to apologize to Emperor Jing Ming with red eyes.

"My lord, you should leave the palace earlier, the emperor is in a bad mood at this time-"

King Qi insisted: "It is right for the father to be beaten or punished. If the father can vent his anger, anything will do."

Today, Emperor Jing Ming was not in the mood to deal with complicated government affairs, and hid in the apse of the Hall of Mental Cultivation in a daze.

Jixiang seems to sense that the owner is in a bad mood, and hides away from the small dried fish.

Emperor Jing Ming glanced at the increasingly round white cat, and his mood was even worse.

This cat was raised for nothing. He was in such a bad mood that he didn't know that he would come over to make him smooth.

Staring at the small dried fish that Jixiang was holding, Emperor Jing Ming had a thought in his heart: Maybe in Jixiang's mind, his master was less important than that dried fish.

Pan Hai came over: "Your Majesty, King Qi is here."

Emperor Jing Ming raised his eyes, his eyes cold: "Didn't you want him to go back?"

"King Qi has seen Ji's family and came here to plead guilty. He is kneeling outside at this time."

"Then let him kneel."

King Qi kneeled for more than an hour.

Pan Hai approached Emperor Jing Ming again: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, please come over."

Emperor Jing Ming nodded slightly, walked out of the bedroom, and saw King Qi kneeling outside at a glance.

The scorching sun was in the sky, and King Qi knelt under the sun, his face flushed, and his thin shirt was soaked with sweat.

Emperor Jing Ming glanced at King Qi and walked towards Cining Palace.

King Qi shook his body and lowered his eyes to cover the despair and resentment towards Concubine Xian in his eyes.

When Emperor Jing Ming arrived at the Cining Palace, he saw the empress dowager's haggard face.

"Mother, did you sleep well last night?"

The queen mother smiled bitterly: "If such a big thing happened yesterday, how could Aijia sleep well. Today I heard the queen say that it was the Ji family who killed the fourteenth..."
