  Chapter 147 The Truth About the Safe Talisman (3)

   "This... I haven't thought about this."

"Because she knew that she was pregnant a long time ago, and disclosed the news to Concubine Jia through the spy around her. With Concubine Jia's heart, she would definitely attack her. If the spy ordered an abortion in her meal Medicine... Tell me, does she need a pregnant woman to try the dishes?" Ning Yue said seriously. Abortion pills are not poisonous, silver needles can't be tested, and eunuchs and non-pregnant court ladies can't respond to them. There is no more suitable candidate than pregnant women.

   Ma Ningxin's face turned pale in an instant, she let go of Ning Yue's hair, and covered her stomach, a chill spread all over her body.

Ning Yue stood up, looked at her, and said softly: "It's a fluke this time, Concubine Jia De didn't use such an insidious method." It should be said that Sikong Shuo disdained to use such a mentally retarded method. Maybe it was the abortion pill.

  Ma Ningxin sat weakly on the chair, threw herself into Ning Yue's arms, and said in panic: "Yue'er, I want to go home..."

  Ning Yue patted her on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll take you home."

   Ma Ningxin's nose was sore, she shook her head and said, "First celebrate the Lantern Festival."

   In the next few days, Ning Yue guarded Ma Ningxin every step of the way. The emperor would come to see Concubine Wu every day after the morning court. The honor and favor of Concubine Wu was unparalleled for a while, and the concubines who came to Guiming Palace to celebrate were like crucian carp crossing the river. There were rumors in the palace that the emperor would confer a noble concubine on the Lantern Festival, and a certain noble concubine said flatteringly: "Except for our noble concubine, who is worthy of the honor of deputy queen?"

  Every time at this time, Concubine Wu would laugh and say that they were thinking too much, but that tone was clearly determined to win!

   On the day of the Lantern Festival, the emperor hosted a banquet in the harem. Empress Shi was unable to attend due to poor health, but all the other concubines went. As everyone prayed, the emperor appointed the imperial concubine, and the moment she heard the name, Concubine Wu was stunned.

   It's not her, but Concubine Guo Shu!

  This time, not to mention Concubine Wu, even Ma Ningxin was surprised: "Why isn't she a concubine? The emperor obviously dotes on her so much and visits her every day. It is said that he has never done this to Concubine Jia..."

"It's because I couldn't give her what she wanted, so I made up for it in other ways." Ning Yue's face showed no surprise at all. The emperor favored Concubine Wu. A kind of compensatory mentality, he understands that Concubine Wu Gui longs for that seat, but he just can't give it to her.

   "Yue'er, did you... guess that it would be Concubine Guo Shu?" Ma Ningxin asked.

   "The night when we had an accident, do you still remember the situation of the palace search?" Concubine Guo Shu played chess in the queen's bedroom most of the night. The two of them were not suspected and did not need to be searched. Why is Concubine Guo Shu going to the queen's bedroom? They must have been talking about this.

  Ma Ningxin is still a little confused: "But...but why is it Guo Shufei? She doesn't seem to be favored by Wu Guifei."

  Ning Yue picked up a grape and smiled faintly: "You only need to think about who is Concubine Guo Shu's sister."

  Ma Ningxin suddenly realized.

   On this side, Ning Yue chatted happily with the eldest sister, while on the other side, Ning Zhen laughed mockingly: "Fourth sister, aren't you just the third sister's partner? Why doesn't the third sister have any place for you in her heart?"

  Ning Wan put down the teacup, and glanced at her quietly: "Fifth Sister, Shen Yan, I don't know who the accomplice is, I only know that it is our sister."

Ning Zhen ate the fifth bowl of almond milk, licked her lips, and said, "Don't fool me, you really pretend I don't know what you did with Ning Yue? In the Juju competition, you deliberately pretended to have a stomachache, so that she would Have a chance to play, right? When she came on the court, she won the best bower, what did you get? Who knows you? Helping people to the end, and being kicked away by someone, if I were you, I would have died of anger."
