There was a knock on the door, and Lian'er, who was lying on the stool, let out a long breath. At this time, her pale face finally showed some color.

The young eunuch holding the board looked at the gate, then at Lian'er, and then he understood.

There are no stupid people in this palace. The young eunuch has already realized it.

He put the board down and said to Lian'er, "Congratulations."

Lian'er smiled bitterly, without much joy of victory on her face.

People like them have no control over their own lives.

The gate was opened, and the Royal Guards walked in the front with torches, followed by a large group of people, filling up the yard in an instant.

The eunuchs and palace maids gathered together in panic, looking blankly at the officers and soldiers who filled the yard.

Yingyue emerged from behind the crowd, walked quickly to Lian'er's side, and looked her up and down: "Are you okay?"

Lian'er shook her head and said softly, "It's okay, I came just in time."

Yingyue took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off her face, with a rare hint of distress in her eyes: "I'm still a little late and I've hurt you."

Lian Er pulled the corner of her lips: "This little injury is nothing, I'm used to it."

Yingyue: "..."

A girl actually said that she was used to this kind of beating and scolding. Yingyue was once again thankful that His Majesty was not interested in Qingqing, but Qingqing.

Yingyue didn't say anything more, just pulled Lian'er back and said softly: "Let's go first, and leave the things here to them."

Lian'er pursed her lips, looked back, and couldn't help asking, "What will she do?"

"I don't know," Yingyue said, "It depends on how your majesty handles this matter."

"The concubines in the harem colluded with the court officials to cause chaos in the court and threaten the emperor. This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either."

How to deal with it is all up to your Majesty to decide.

Lian'er nodded and said no more.

She walked out of the door and heard the shouting and shouting of the Royal Guards inside, a chaotic scene.

Yingyue patted her on the back and comforted her softly, "Forget it all."

No matter what happened in the past, and no matter what happens to Lin Qingqing in the future, Lian'er will have nothing to do with anyone in the Lin family from now on.

Lian'er took a deep breath, nodded, and followed Yingyue away.

And the yard was indeed in a mess, just as Lian'er had heard.

Lin Qingqing rushed out of the house and saw the scene in the yard. Her face turned pale, but she still straightened her back and shouted at these people: "How dare you! What kind of place do you think this is to allow you to run wild?"

The leading imperial guard glanced at Lin Qingqing, took out the token he carried with him and showed it to Lin Qingqing, and said lightly: "The evidence is conclusive that Concubine Xian colluded with court officials, interfered in government affairs, and threatened His Majesty."

"Xian Guifei, from today on, you are asked to stay in seclusion in this palace and not to leave without the emperor's order. As for these palace servants, they must all be investigated according to the rules and cooperate with Guifei."

Lin Qingqing staggered and almost lost her balance.

She clenched her hands tightly, her voice trembling: "Your Majesty, are you going to put me under house arrest?"

The Imperial Guards said calmly, "We are also following your orders. Please don't make things difficult for us, Your Majesty."

Lin Qingqing shook her head, trying to maintain her dignity: "Your Majesty can't do this to me, let alone to the Lin family!"

"You must be lying! Yes, you are Lin Jiuqing's people, right? Lin Jiuqing asked you to do this, right?"

"I want to see His Majesty!"
