Princess Baoqi panicked when she heard this, and sat back in her chair reflexively.

Concubine Li looked a little amused and said casually, "Mrs. Protector is not a savage beast. What does Princess Baoqi have to be afraid of? Besides, the Queen Mother is here. How dare she hit you again..."

Baoqi's face was on fire when she was pointed out like this. The hatred and great shame in her heart were intertwined. Her eyes turned red and she said, "Royal Grandmother..."

The Queen Mother gave her a cold look and immediately shut up Princess Baoqi.

"Baoqi, your joke is over." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she said to Hu Dezhong: "Go and see the general's wife. If it doesn't work, ask the imperial doctor."

Hu Dezhong bowed and agreed. When he walked over, his hand was about to reach out to the Protector's Lady...

But at this moment, Mrs. He woke up leisurely, her eyes were confused for a moment, and she suddenly woke up from a dream and was about to kowtow, "The Queen Mother..."

Before she finished speaking, she heard the Queen Mother's voice as kind as a mother's: "You child is too weak. Baoqi just said a few words without restraint, and you actually fainted... …”

"Empress Dowager, Zhao'er is my biological child..." He continued to emphasize with fear on her face.

The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes. She called He just to test her.

Now that the temptation has come out, there is no need to hold on to He for the time being.

The Queen Mother put on a kind look and said, "Get up quickly. Baoqi is not serious. It's just a joke. The Ai family believes that Mrs. Sheng will not deceive the Ai family..."

Hearing this, Mrs. He felt even more panicked...

The Queen Mother smiled and asked her to sit down, and then glanced at Gong E who was waiting for instructions.

He was like a frightened bird and sat down obediently. At this time, Sheng Yunzhao was also invited in.

When Sheng Yunzhao came in, he saw He standing sideways and stiffly facing the Queen Mother, safe and sound, looking nervous.

She had a cold face and bowed calmly, "Yun Zhao has met the Queen Mother, Concubine Li."

"Zhao'er..." He stood up suddenly and turned around to look. When she saw Sheng Yunzhao, she was so excited that she almost shed tears.

Sheng Yunzhao's heart tightened when he saw this, but he gave He a comforting look.

Concubine Li joked with a smile on her face: "Mrs. Sheng came in front, and Mrs. Protector came in behind. If this was a mistake, I would have thought she was worried that Mrs. Sheng would be bullied..."

Hearing this, Sheng Yunzhao looked at Concubine Li with a faint look, "Which daughter in the world doesn't cling to her mother? Concubine Li is a woman, so it's understandable."

She clearly meant that she had a guilty conscience as a thief, but Sheng Yunzhao said something like a mother and a daughter, leaving her speechless.

Concubine Li said sarcastically: "What Madam Protector said is absolutely true..."

The Queen Mother acted as if nothing had happened at this time, and she did not mention even a word about her life experience.

And he was very kind to Sheng Yunzhao, "Mrs. Protector, sit down quickly. You are pregnant, so you can't be tired."

Princess Baoqi had already received the warning look from the Imperial Grandmother, and she did not dare to say a word to her.

Sheng Yunzhao ignored Princess Baoqi's indignant gaze, sat down and exchanged a few words with the Queen Mother and others, and then left, citing fatigue.

The Queen Mother did not embarrass her and let her have a good rest.

As soon as the mother and daughter left, the Queen Mother's expression also faded.

Princess Baoqi said unwillingly: "Royal Grandma, He was obviously lying just now. Why did you stop your granddaughter from exposing her..."

The Queen Mother looked at Bao Qi with sharp eyes, "Idiot! You have suffered so many losses at the hands of Sheng Yunzhao, why haven't you made any progress?

It's hard to change the nature of a useless thing. After so many things, you are still so rampant. If you didn't have the identity of this princess, you would have died countless times.

If only you were half as smart as Sheng Yunzhao, the Aijia would be able to save some worries..."

Princess Baoqi blushed when she was scolded, feeling aggrieved and unwilling to accept it, but she did not dare to say anything back.

How could the Queen Mother not see what Princess Baoqi was thinking?

Immediately said: "What are you wronged about? It's not that the Ai family deliberately belittled you, you are not even as good as Mrs. Sheng."

"The Imperial Grandmother said that Baoqi is not as good as Sheng Yunzhao, but why is she not as good as that good-for-nothing He?" Princess Baoqi's eyes turned red with grievance.

The Queen Mother sneered, "Okay, then the Ai family wants to ask you, can you tell whether He is really dizzy or pretending to be dizzy?"

"What?" Princess Baoqi couldn't care less about her grievance.

Even Concubine Li and Princess Wei looked at the Queen Mother in surprise.

At that time, they didn't pay much attention to Mr. He. They only preconceived that Mr. He was timid and useless. Most of them were wondering about the Queen Mother's intentions.

"Thankfully you're here." He stroked his heart, frightened to death.

Sheng Yunzhao looked at He's face with lingering fear and couldn't help but ask: "Mother, what did the Queen Mother tell you?"

He opened her mouth to tell what happened, but all she could think of was what her mother-in-law had told her, and she immediately said: "It's nothing, it's just that the Queen Mother saw me and asked me to come and sit with you. No, you won't be able to do it for a while." It’s coming.”

He has always been like this, nothing unusual.

When Sheng Yunzhao saw this, he had to tell her, "From now on, when the Queen Mother and others call Mother, she can push her away if she can. If she can't, pretend to be unwell or ask someone to find me immediately."

He responded unambiguously, and then said: "Since the Queen Mother has arranged a palace for you, you should go back quickly to take a bath and rest for a while. Mother has also gone back."

Sheng Yunzhao just thought that He was frightened by the Queen Mother, so he didn't ask any more questions, but sent Yun Niang to send her back.

When He turned around absentmindedly, Sheng Yunzhao's face darkened.

She thought that when she went there, Princess Baoqi looked guilty, and her face immediately darkened, "Feng Wu, please ask someone to find out what happened in Cining Palace just now."

Feng Wu responded and signaled a maid behind him to go back the way he came with a slight nod.

Feng Wu then asked: "Madam, do you think something is wrong?"

Sheng Yunzhao shook his head, "No, just to make sure, just for peace of mind..."

According to what I have seen before, the people in Cining Palace are all the confidants of the Queen Mother, and the inquiries are from the people waiting outside, which is just a side analysis and judgment.

After Sheng Yunzhao returned to her residence, she had just changed into regular clothes when the maid came back. As expected, she did not hear anything strange inside.

Sheng Yunzhao said thank you and then thought about it.

Do you think too much?

Seeing that she was still frowning slightly, Feng Wu suggested, "Why don't I report it to the prince and ask him to send someone to inquire again?"

Maybe the prince can find out something.

"No need." Sheng Yunzhao came back to his senses and decisively refused: "I have my own way."

It's not difficult to know what's going on inside, just start with Baoqi.

There's no need to bother Yue Chenyan with this little thing, and so does she.

At this time, Mrs. He arrived at her residence. After sending Yun Niang away, her legs became weak.

Supported by the maid beside her, she stood firm and pushed the maid away and quickly entered the room.

Sheng Kuan was pacing anxiously waiting for He...
