Sure enough, in the afternoon, Zhou Ninghai received news that Songzhi was found outside the gate of Nian Mansion.
"Madam has already had Miss Songzhi examined. She was just drugged and not injured."
Knowing that Nian Shilan was worried, Zhou Ninghai hurried over and said, "Miss Songzhi is still unconscious, so I sent her back to the room."
"Go and send the imperial doctor here, and let Songzhi take a look."
Nian Shilan thought for a while and said: "Lingzhi, go and accompany Songzhi. If she wakes up, tell her the current situation as soon as possible."
Songzhi is back, so the emperor will definitely ask someone to come and question her.
Nian Shilan thought for a while and then said: "Little Lizi, you can go to Chengqian Palace later and tell Concubine Xi that everything is fine with me and let her recover well. There is no need to come to see me now."
Nian Shilan couldn't bring Zhen Huan in at this time, after all, Dali Temple didn't know about Zhen Huan's injury yet.
"Zhou Ninghai, there is news from Dali Temple."
Nian Shilan felt a little uneasy. Wu was in Dali Temple now, but the troubles on his side had not stopped.
Could it be that these people are not the same group as the Wu family at all?
I have quite a few enemies.
"There is news, I didn't have time to tell you yet."
Zhou Ninghai quickly said: "Wu's intention is that if the empress allows her to return to the palace, she will tell everything she knows. But if not, I think it would be good for the whole family to go on the road together."
"Is she threatening me?"
Nian Shilan sneered: "Go in person and bring Wu's sister into the palace. If she still refuses to tell you, give her sister to the palace people as a wife."
Nian Shilan had already asked people to investigate and found out that Wu Ruozhao should not have entered the palace. She was probably even more worried about her sister who loved her.
Zhou Ninghai understood what Nian Shilan meant, so he took the people there himself.
When Wu saw Zhou Ninghai coming, she thought Nian Shilan had listened to her words.
"Did Eunuch Zhou come to see me?"
No matter how anxious Wu Ruozhao was, his face had an expression like "I knew it would be like this."
Zhou Ninghai had been in the palace for many years, so he couldn't see Wu Ruozhao's tricks and ignored her at all.
"According to the Queen Mother's decree, Wu Ruoyun is sent to the palace."
As soon as Zhou Ninghai's words came out, Wu Ruoyun was stunned, but Wu Ruozhao had a rare expression of uncertainty on his face.
"My name is Wu Ruozhao."
Wu Ruozhao thought of countermeasures quickly, and then said something.
"But isn't it Wu Ruoyun who was supposed to enter the palace?"
Others didn't know, but the West Gate of the Wu family knew what was going on.
So as soon as Zhou Ninghai finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
"Wu family, it will not work to go against our Yi Kun Palace. I kindly remind you that our empress's patience is also limited."
Zhou Ninghai said with a smile: "The empress is kind and can't bear the annihilation of your Wu family, so she specially gave your Wu family blood. Let Wu Zhaoyun break away from the Wu family and marry the steward of the palace's internal affairs office."
If Wu's parents' expressions changed slightly after what Zhou Ninghai said just now, then Zhou Ninghai's words made everyone feel despair.
Especially Wu Zhaoyun's husband's family, their heads seemed to have been greatly humiliated.
"Eunuch, Wu Ruoyun has already married into the Zhang Mansion, how can she marry again?"
Zhang Xianli, Wu Ruoyun's husband, rarely helped Wu Ruoyun.
"This servant is just here to convey the Queen's decree. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to the Queen to argue with me."
Zhou Ninghai looked at Zhang Xianli and smiled sarcastically: "Isn't it Wu Zhaoyun who you were going to marry?"
After saying that, he glanced at Wu Ruozhao pointedly, and then he didn't want to talk nonsense with them anymore: "Come here, take Wu Ruoyun away."
"No, no."
Wu Ruoyun was frightened, how could she marry again? What's more, he is still a palace man?
"Father-in-law, please have mercy on me, please have mercy on me."
Wu Ruoyun quickly knelt down.
Wu Ruoyun's mother also knelt down together. Even if she died, she wouldn't want to live like this.
Seeing Zhou Ninghai's resolute attitude, Wu Ruozhao guessed that Nian Shilan was completely impatient this time.
Her heart was in chaos, and she really didn't know what to do.
"Wait a minute, father-in-law."
Zhou Ninghai looked at Wu Ruozhao coldly.
"I have something to say, but I can only say it to you alone."
Wu Ruozhao said with difficulty: "I don't believe the people in Dali Temple."
In fact, what Wu Ruozhao wanted to say was that she didn't believe anyone except Nian Shilan. After all, Nian Shilan wanted to kill her, and no one else could persuade him.
"Our family doesn't dare to listen to this."
Zhou Ninghai was not fooled. If she was really alone with the Wu family, she would say that she had harmed her child, but she couldn't explain it clearly.
"We have paper and pen here. You can write down what you want to say, and we will help you bring it to the Queen."
Wu Ruozhao listened to Zhou Ninghai's words and looked at his sister who was being pulled, knowing that he had no choice.
She couldn't just watch her sister suffer such humiliation, it was even more uncomfortable for her than to kill her sister.
At this time, she really had to admit that Nian Shilan really knew how to manipulate people's hearts.
Wu Ruozhao took the pen and paper handed over by Zhou Ninghai and quickly started thinking about what Nian Shilan wanted to know and what she didn't want to know on the table. She wrote everything down.
Wu Ruozhao wrote eloquently for several pages, from the time he was arranged to enter the palace to the subsequent events in the palace that he had a hand in and contributed to.
But when she wrote about concubine Ji, she paused.
What should she say? She really didn't want to harm Ji's concubine, but who let her block her way?
She gritted her teeth and still wanted to live. After all, she didn't write about Ji's concubine.
But she touched her belly. After all, this child also belonged to the emperor, and she couldn't let anything happen to him.
That's right, Wu Ruozhao is really pregnant.
At that time in Shoukang Palace, she deliberately made Nian Shilan think that she was falsely pregnant because the Queen Mother would not hurt herself.
But if Nian Shilan knew that she was really pregnant, then the entire harem would know.
If Yi Xiu knew about it, he would definitely not keep his child.
After thinking about it, Wu Ruozhao wrote: "The son in my belly is the emperor's flesh and blood. If the empress doesn't believe it, don't worry about me. Just wait a few months to see if I will give birth. I just ask the empress to have mercy on me." The youngest son is innocent, and if I give birth to the child safely, I will not live longer.”
This is what Wu Ruozhao wrote, but who would want to die if they could live?
And if she gave birth to a princess, that would be fine. If she gave birth to an elder brother, then she would be a great achievement.
