However, the furious Emperor Mingyuan had let Mu Ru ask Yuan Qingling to go in.
Prince Sun looked at Yuan Qingling with pity. He was really sorry to ask her to face the anger of his father for him. He heard that Yu Wenhao was recuperating in the palace, so he had better tell him to find a way to get Consort Chu back.
When Yuan Qingling entered the hall, Emperor Mingyuan said lightly without looking up, "Kneel down!"
Yuan Qingling knelt down. "Your majesty!"
The hall was in a mess. Mu Ru was cleaning up the ink stone on the ground. It seemed that The Emperor was furious and smashed something toward Prince Sun.
A string of Southern Pearls also lay quietly on the ground, less than five feet away from Yuan Qingling.
Emperor Mingyuan asked calmly, "Mu Ru just came back to report that you lost one of the strings of Southern Pearls that I rewarded you. Where did you lose it?"
"Father, I lost it in the Qinkun Palace." Yuan Qingling said...
"Then take a look. Is this string of pearls the one you lost in the Qinkun Palace?" Emperor Mingyuan asked again.
Yuan Qingling took a look and said, "Yes."
"This string of South Pearls was sent to me by the Queen's people. Do you mean that the Queen's people stole it?" He sounded a little angry.
But it seemed that he was still giving her a chance.
Yuan Qingling shook her head slowly. "No, I know who took it."
"Oh yeah?" Emperor Mingyuan sneered. "Do you know who stole it?"
"Yes. I saw who took it away." She insisted on using this word "take".
"Who is it?" Emperor Mingyuan was so angry that he laughed.
Yuan Qingling was silent for a moment. "Nurse Xi!"
Emperor Mingyuan slammed the table angrily. "Nonsense!"
Mu Ru hurriedly said, "My Lady, don't talk nonsense. Do you know that Nurse Xi is the Retired Emperor's servant?"
Yuan Qing said with difficulty, "I know..." She didn't want to continue because she knew Nurse Xi's identity.
Emperor Mingyuan stared at her coldly. Her words were so ridiculous that no one would believe it.
However, it was too absurd that it made Emperor Mingyuan feel that it was possible.
Yuan Qingling was not stupid enough to frame the Retired Emperor's people.
Thinking this, Emperor Mingyuan calmed down.
Poly said that the Southern Pearl was sent by Nurse Xi. In other words, that sentence was also passed down by her. If Yuan Qingling wanted to help Yu Wenhao, why did she ask others to do it?
She should send it in person to express her sincerity.
Yuan Qingling remained kneeling, looked calm.
She threw the difficult problem to Emperor Mingyuan.
As for whether to asking the people of the Retired Emperor, it depended on Emperor Mingyuan.
Emperor Mingyuan thought for a while and then ordered, "Send an order. Ask the Empress and Nurse Xi to the Royal Workroom."
A servant took the order and left.
Before Nurse Xi and the Empress came, Queen Xian came.
She could no longer silent. When she learned that Yuan Qingling had given Southern Pearls to the Empress, she knew that the situation was slowly changing that it was not suitable for her to stay in Qingyu Palace to recuperate any longer.
After recuperating for a long time, even her lowly daughter-in-law dared to look down on her.
She came out this time not for the matter of Southern Pearls, but for making a sound so that others would know that she was still alive.
Queen Xian brought over ginseng tea. When she entered the hall, she saw Yuan Qingling kneeling in front of the hall. There was a string of Southern Pearls on the royal table. Seeing that The Emperor was angry and Mu Ru kept silence, her heart sank slightly.
She knew that The Emperor might have been angry at Yuan Qingling because she sent the Empress Southern Pearls as a gift. Although she knew that her son would be implicated in this matter, she was still happy that Yuan Qingling was punished.
She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I know that you've been busy with political affairs recently, and also worried about the old emperor's illness, so I cooked ginseng tea for you."
