"As I thought …" The empress's face lit up with joy, but then she asked worriedly, "Then how do we get to see the blood?"

Qingning looked at Lu Mengyan who had turned pale, as if he was going to make a miracle out of it and use a large amount of cinnabar to write the word for birthday.

He had never imagined that the Beiqin harem that had no children for so many years would suddenly produce a pregnant imperial concubine.

The old imperial physician wiped away some of the flying ash on the table, but he didn't get close enough to take a closer look.

Lu Mengyan stood up and said, "Could it be that some bug that disturbed lady just now …"

Once she said that, the Queen's gaze towards Qingning tensed up.

Then, she covered her mouth and kneeled in front of the chairman. She immediately changed her words, "It's all my fault … Second Sister has always been a person with a good idea … I, I, she must have unintentionally charged into Imperial Consort Shu, if there is any punishment, just let me, the big sister, bear it all! "

She spoke incoherently, with fear and surprise on her face. From the sound of it, this was the situation she was in earlier. She was a good older sister who was wholeheartedly trying to get rid of her younger sister.

Before the Chairman could open his mouth, the discussion below had already begun.

"I really didn't think that such an impolite person would have such a kind sister!"

"It might even be a death sentence to hurt Long Si!"

They immediately made Lu Mengyan, who was kneeling miserably, and Qingning, who was still standing upright.

The depiction is complete, good sister in court to save the sister, cold sister to watch the ungrateful.

"Lu Qingning!" The empress's tone was harsh. "What do you have to say for yourself!"

The Grand Empress Dowager asked, "Doctor Xu, what do you see?"

Imperial Physician Bai Hu had just finished prescribing the medicine and brought it to the boy. He hesitated for a moment before speaking, "If you didn't eat anything extremely cold, you would've been struck by something unclean on the mountain. There are more mosquitoes on spring night than usual."

No matter how much Qingning revealed that skill just now, it was all thanks to him.

Imperial Noble Consort Xie said: "Why are you still standing here, hurry up and kneel down and beg for forgiveness!"

Lu Mengyan also pitifully pulled on the hem of her skirt, "Second Sister, don't push yourself too hard, quickly beg the seniors, there might be a chance for you to survive!"

Qingning swept his sleeves and stood a little further away, "If you like to kneel and beg others, then don't pull me!"

"What a good temper!" The empress could not help but sneer. "It's fine if you're useless, but you'll always provoke trouble. Royal Grandmother, you have to be impartial!"

The Grand Empress Dowager continued, "Imperial Physician Xu, what exactly is it that struck Imperial Consort Shu? Just now, it was so lively that it did not affect This Dowager's age. You should investigate carefully!"

The night was getting darker. Qin Muxu yawned and said, "Doctor Xu, you're too old for this. Don't lie and find a reason to fool us!"

Imperial Physician Xu looked a little embarrassed. "lady's diet was perfect, and lady didn't suffer any stimulation or strenuous exercise. The only problem is that it wasn't long ago that fiery-red firefly. This old subject has practiced medicine for 40 years, so there's no mistake!"

After kneeling for a long time, Lu Mengyan, who had been neglected by the crowd, raised his head again and spoke with teary eyes: "If there's anything that the lady s do not want to pass through, punish my daughter then, please do not make things difficult for my young and ignorant Second Sister!"

Yan Er, what use are you doing so much for this heartless woman? Qin Yixuan could no longer sit still, he took a big stride forward, wanting to help her up.

Seeing that the latter had a resolute look on his face and was about to kneel down, this noble heir turned around and said angrily: "This noble heir is really blind, that's why I felt that I had let down your evil woman previously!"

Qingning automatically covered the latter half of the sentence, raised his eyebrows and laughed coldly: "Since when have you never been blind!"

"What do you think, first pull it out and cut off its limbs, then make an example of it by gouging out its eyes?" Prince Rong's cold voice sounded.

For a moment, it was unknown who he was asking.

Qin Yixuan said hatefully: "Such a vicious woman, even if she were to become a human, it wouldn't be enough!"

Hearing Qin Huo's sudden change in topic, Lu Mengyan, who was in the right mood, sneakily glanced at Qingning, and just stooped down to conceal a hint of a smile on his face.

Qin Huo raised his sleeves, and two Shadow Guard s suddenly appeared from the darkness. Without saying a word, they dragged Lu Mengyan up from the ground.

Qin Yixuan was shocked, "prince, what are you trying to do?"

That person's expression remained the same. Without any emotion, he said, "As she wishes!"

Lu Mengyan, who was trying to blame Qingning just now, was completely stunned, "Your Highness Prince Rong, how can you act in such a way? The one who harmed the heir is obviously Lu Qingning!"

Originally, Lu Mengyan's actions were only to show how gentle and kind he was in front of everyone, and to let the nobles not be angry with her, so they could take care of themselves when they return to the Lu's Mansion.

Except, this was clearly a plan to kill three birds with one stone.

How could he have met Qin Huo who completely disregarded common sense.

"Big Sis, didn't you want to take the blame for me? Why did you suddenly go back on your word before even half a minute has passed?" Qingning's phoenix eyes slanted upwards as she revealed the truth with a single sentence.

"I... "I …" Lu Mengyan's reaction had actually leaked through.

Qin Yixuan looked at her with a complicated expression, before silently withdrawing his hand that was originally about to reach out and save her.

"My daughter is willing to atone for her sins with her death, just to not lose the face of my Lu Family."

What a generous and proper young miss of Lu Family!

Qin Huo did not say anything and just played with the Glazed Glass Cup on the shore.

For a moment, no one dared to say anything.

Suddenly, someone laughed softly and broke the silence.

Everyone hugged their faces as they looked over in front of the 'who's courting death'.

The one who laughed was Lu Qingning.

Qin Yixuan, who was half feeling pity and half ashamed, was furious, "You heartless person, what are you laughing about?"

"It won't be hard for you to die!" Qingning didn't pay any attention to him, her phoenix eyes only stared at Lu Mengyan: "But you can't die with a good reputation that has helped me die on my behalf!"

Everyone was shocked, and their mouths were filled with venomous words that had yet to be spat out.

Qingning then nodded towards the Chief: "Apologies!"

Then, a slender figure flashed, and waited for him to see clearly again.

She had already shoved the white-bearded old imperial physician onto the table. "Insolent doctor, open your eyes wide and take a good look at what this is!"

Imperial Consort Shu and Empress Han jumped in fright, being protected by the palace maids, they retreated two steps.

A few men stood up in unison in the male guest seating area, all of them standing up in anger.

Imperial Physician Xu was an experienced doctor who held a lot of authority in the Yongan and aristocratic circles. All of the clansmen had received a favor, but all of a sudden she was pushed down by a little girl.

If it wasn't for the fact that Prince Rong didn't dare to be impudent, he would have already rushed up to Qingning and beat him up.

However, Imperial Physician Xu's old face was pressed against the cold surface of the table, changing from green to red to white. All sorts of changes had occurred, making the situation even more exciting.

When Qingning saw that his face had more or less changed, she gracefully pulled the old imperial physician up and faced him in his seat. "Now, you can clearly explain the reason!"

"Red Sand..." It's cinnabar! " "Returning to Grand Empress Dowager, this dust is cinnabar that has been burned by fire. This dust is taboo for pregnant women, after coming into contact with it, it's easy for it to give birth. Luckily Imperial Consort Shu is in good health, or else the consequences would be unimaginable!"

He felt a sense of lingering fear. He had been a doctor for so many years, and a girl had pressed him to the table during his diagnosis. It must have been a long time since he last saw her.

"So that's how it is!" The Grand Empress Dowager nodded.

The empress's face was still dark. "If you knew, why didn't you say so earlier? Why did you beat around the bush like this?"

She was just about to say that she was too young and her thoughts were quite vicious.

"Sister has always wanted to take my place, and she said it sincerely. How can I be in a rush to strike a blow at her sincere heart!" Qingning said as he looked at the collapsed Lu Mengyan.

The nimble Miss Lu had used the cinnabar inscription and sent the lantern flying, causing the cinnabar to fly towards Imperial Consort Shu, almost causing him to give birth.

Yet she still had to be a good person for Qingning in front of all the nobles.

Just now, those people all thought that Lu Mengyan was kind, but now, they scolded her even more viciously.

"To think that I praised her to be like a Heavenly Immortal. So she was so malicious!"

"I've always known that I would bully this sister who's uglier than her. Now that she's beautiful, it's really a good idea to frame her!"

"Not only do you know how to play tricks, you even want to come out and pretend to be a good person. You don't feel disgusted with yourself either!"

Lu Mengyan had always been bullied by others, he had never received such insults from others.

He nearly fainted in public after hearing those words.

Very quickly, she knew that it would be better to faint now than now.

If one wanted a good reputation, they would need to plan step by step. However, if a bad reputation only needed to be spread once, it would spread far and wide, and they wouldn't be able to stop it.

Because Qingning didn't have the slightest intention to beat around the bush. She raised her eyes to the point where she didn't even give Lu Mengyan an extra glance, and directly said: "Whatever you said just now, I'll ask the Grand Empress Dowager to deal with it. Our Lu Family has always been obedient, we definitely won't shield this kind of person!"

It was no surprise that she said that now.

"In that case, let's …" Halfway through Grand Empress Dowager's words, Lu Mengyan blacked out.

Qin Huo said: "Wake her up, finish listening!"
