Chapter 193 Concubine Li is deposed
Chu Anlan was stunned.

Ye Wanqing retracted her gaze: "Sir, are you still carrying me?"

Chu Anlan withdrew his gaze with lingering fear and held Ye Wanqing's hand tightly: "Let's hold your hand and walk together..."

Ye Wanqing lowered her head and smiled.

The two of them went into the palace together to meet the emperor and the queen, and then went to talk to the queen mother for a while.

After the whole process, I received a lot of rewards.

Before leaving the palace, the Queen Mother stopped the two of them with a slightly tired look on her face: "As for Prince Duan's matter, avoid it if you can, and don't get involved. Otherwise, the Crown Prince will also be in trouble."

Ye Wanqing nodded: "Qing'er understands."

"Don't worry, Queen Mother." Chu Anlan said, "When I was in the Dali Temple, I made it clear to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that although Chen Xi and I played with Chu Xiaoyan, we never knew that his father was planning a rebellion. Looking at Chu Xiaoyan's appearance, I'm afraid he didn't know about it.

He has been with us since he was a child, and he doesn't study hard or learn martial arts well. He doesn't look like he has any intention of rebelling. It's very likely that he was controlled by the elixir."

After saying this, he nodded, thinking that what he said made sense.

The Queen Mother looked at him in silence.

Chu Anlan grinned: "You, Queen Mother, also think that my analysis makes sense, right?"

The Queen Mother: “…Hmm.”

Chu Anlan smiled even more brightly.

The Queen Mother sighed in her heart, thinking out of sight, out of mind, she looked at Ye Wanqing and said, "I heard that you will be leaving the capital soon. I think that since An Lan and you are both still young and you are going to travel far away, it is not suitable for you to have children, so I asked the imperial physician to prepare a contraceptive medicine."

As he said this, he asked someone to bring the medicine up.

The palace maid held a palm-sized medicine box and handed it to Yingxiang.

Chu Anlan was surprised: "Contraceptive medicine?"

"Hmm." The Queen Mother looked at him.

Chu Anlan touched the medicine box before looking up at the Queen Mother: "No, Queen Mother, medicine is poisonous. Taking so much medicine will not be good for Qing'er's health..."

"I didn't tell you to eat it," the Queen Mother replied.

"Ah?" Chu Anlan was puzzled.

The Queen Mother raised her hand.

The palace maid at the side immediately brought a tray with a porcelain plate containing a white pill.

Chu Anlan pointed at the tip of his nose: "This... is for me?"

Ye Wanqing also looked at the Queen Mother with a little surprise.

The Queen Mother sat back and said, "I know you have been spoiled since childhood, and you are picky about food, clothing and daily expenses. You also like the taste of peaches, so I asked someone to make the pills taste like peaches. Eat it, and I will watch you eat it."

Under everyone's gaze, Chu Anlan reached out and picked up the soybean-sized pill, brought it to his nose and sniffed it: "It really tastes like peach."

As he said that, he threw the pill into his mouth and smacked his lips: "It tastes sour and sweet, and it tastes really good. Thank you, Queen Mother, for the reward. This medicine is just what I want, hehe."

The Queen Mother raised her hand and waved gently: "Take Qing'er out of the palace. I am tired and want to rest for a while."

Ye Wanqing bowed and said, "Her Majesty, have a good rest. Qing'er will come to the palace to accompany you another day."

"Go ahead," said the Queen Mother.

Chu Anlan also bowed and said, "We are leaving now. Queen Mother, please take care of yourself and get well soon. In a few days, Qing'er and I will come to the palace to accompany you."

"I understand. Go back." The Queen Mother's tone became much kinder.

The palace maids escorted the two people out of the palace.

The rain was still falling.

The two men left Huining Palace and walked for a while when they suddenly saw a group of guards escorting someone on the long palace road, hurrying forward in the rain.

It was getting closer and closer.

Ye Wanqing stopped and asked the palace attendant holding an umbrella in Huining Palace: "Who is being escorted? Where are they being taken?"

The palace servant glanced at the palace road, then looked away: "Reporting to the princess, the one being escorted is the emperor's former concubine Li, Ling."

Concubine Li?

Ye Wanqing exchanged glances with Chu Anlan in surprise.

Chu Anlan was also a little surprised. At this time, the palace servant whispered: "Ling's mother's family privately embezzled official salt, and even worse, the palace servant dug out a puppet with a needle stuck in her palace..."

After saying this, he carefully looked around, fearing that he might be heard by someone else.

puppet?

Ye Wanqing was slightly surprised.

Chu Anlan gently tugged at her sleeve and asked in a very soft voice, "Is this the puppet I understand?"

Ye Wanqing held his fingers and said, "It's raining hard again. The floor tiles are a bit slippery. Please hold my hand."

Her fingertips slid across his palm.

Chu Anlan took a breath of cold air and immediately held her hand: "Qing'er, I feel very uncomfortable when you do this."

As he spoke, he took advantage of the wide sleeves to cover her hand and guided it down along her belly.

The further down you go, the higher the temperature.

Ye Wanqing quickly pulled back her hand and reminded softly, "Prince."

There are people in front and behind me.

What’s more, it happened in broad daylight and in the palace.

Chu Anlan slightly bent his waist, his eyes red, and whispered: "It hurts... I can't walk..."

Ye Wanqing's face was filled with heat: "Sorry."

She was just worried that he might say something wrong and be heard, so she dialed his number to divert his attention.

Who knew he would react so strongly?
At this time, the attendants escorting Concubine Li had already approached and saluted at a distance: "Greetings to the Princess, Prince Dun's son."

"No need to be so polite." Ye Wanqing said calmly.

She looked at Concubine Li through the guards.

She was not familiar with Concubine Li. She had only met her at some palace banquets and simply said hello.

Concubine Li was beautiful and stood out among the emperor's concubines, so she was very much favored by the emperor.

The beautiful woman who was once so graceful is now without her gorgeous clothes and jewels, her face is tired and she looks haggard.

With the rain, her plain clothes and hair were soaked by the rain, sticking sticky to her body, making her look even more disheveled.

Seeing Ye Wanqing and Chu Anlan, Concubine Li's bloodshot eyes rolled around and she glared at them viciously.

Seeing this, the guard next to her pushed her hard and said, "How dare you!"

Concubine Li was also unwilling to accept it, and she stretched out her hand and slapped the guard's face: "Even if I have been deposed, I have served the emperor for several years and was your master for several years!

Who do you think you are to teach me a lesson? "

This slap directly angered all the guards.

One of the guards said, "All the members of the Ling family have been imprisoned, and there is no chance of recovery. As for you, you did such a thing, but you were not immediately sentenced to death. This is already a special favor from the emperor. Be honest and leave quickly!"

As he said this, he pushed Concubine Li even harder.

Concubine Li staggered after being pushed. She raised her pale face, looked up at the sky covered with dark clouds, and cried loudly: "I don't accept my fate! I don't accept it..."

Before he could finish his words, he was forcibly taken away by the guards.

The guard walking at the end apologized, "We disturbed the prince and the princess."

Ye Wanqing said calmly: "It's okay, the rain is heavy and the roads are slippery, take the person away as soon as possible."

After Ling was sent to the cold palace, it was estimated that no one would take care of her anymore. She could only fend for herself. If she caught a cold, she might die.

The guard saluted and trotted after the team.

Under the umbrella, Chu Anlan folded his hands in front of his chest: "You said that only the Ling family was abolished, what about the Ling family?"

Ling family?

Ye Wanqing looked at Ling's staggering back and said, "At the least, the family property will be confiscated, at the worst, the person will be executed. Who can tell what the emperor is thinking?"

Since ancient times, those who practiced witchcraft in the palace all suffered a miserable end.

I'm afraid that the Ling family is not just going to be abolished.
