Chapter 1022 Kneel until dawn
"Aren't you cold?" the emperor asked her.

Yingning looked up at him, fell down without saying a word.

The emperor hurriedly reached out to hug her, pulled off his cloak, wrapped her around her, and returned to Qinzheng Hall.

Yingning drank a bowl of ginger soup and roasted for a long time before she felt relieved.

"Are you ruining your body by standing outside, or punishing me?" The emperor looked at her red hands and face, and said coldly.

"I sent Qingxiong to give you a message. Qingxiong has gone and will never return, and he doesn't know where he is now, whether he is dead or alive! If I don't come and wait in person, what other way can I see you?"

"Li Chenglian, do you dare to stop him?"

"Now everyone knows that the emperor despises the empress, and the empress has no majesty at all. Li Chengtang is in the palm of the chief ceremonial officer. Why doesn't he dare to stop me?"

The emperor said to the outside: "Li Cheng!"

Li Cheng hurried in and knelt down.

"Where's Qingxiong?" the emperor asked, "I only give you one chance to answer."

Li Cheng was a little flustered, and hurriedly said: "Return to Your Majesty, the slave and Eunuch Qing have some friction, but it's not a serious matter, just let it go..."

"Send him back to Xuanzheng Hall."

"Yes, the servant obeys the order!"

"You're kneeling outside tonight. You're not allowed to get up before dawn."

"...The servant obeys the order!"

Li Cheng hurriedly went outside to kneel in the snow.

He regrets it.

Why was lard fooled, thinking that the emperor and the queen were at odds, so he could step on the queen.

Now everyone knows that although the emperor is at odds with the queen, he still recognizes the queen's status and will never allow anyone to challenge the queen's authority.

Qingxiong was sent back with a lot of injuries, apparently he was severely beaten by Li Cheng.

Yingning took out the wound medicine prepared by An Yulian and came to see Qingxiong in person.

Qingxiong struggled to get up and kowtow: "It's all the slave's fault. The slave shouldn't have opposed Li Cheng, and ended up missing the empress's affairs. I beg the empress to punish the slave!"

Ying Ning said: "If I'm angry, I'm also angry with you for opposing and conflicting with Li Cheng when you were unable to deal with Li Cheng. That's not good for you."

"I'm tired of empress!" Zhelan said dissatisfiedly, "Qingxiong, I thought you were steady and smart, but it's useless who knows!"

Qingxiong was ashamed.

He was driven away because of his godfather, and he was full of resentment towards Li Cheng, so he forgot his current duty.

Jinshu said: "Zhelan, he's already like this, so don't talk about it."

Zhelan said: "I really hope that the wind and snow will be stronger tonight, and that old bastard Li Cheng will be frozen to death!"

Ying Ning smiled and said: "Then hurry up and burn incense sticks to God, and ask him to show his spirit."

"Ma'am, it's getting dark today, and it's New Year's Eve tomorrow, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Sanhua Nunnery for the time being?" Jin Shu said.

"Not going." Yingning got up and went out.

Jin Shu hurriedly followed her out: "Why didn't your empress go?"

"The emperor forbids me to go."

Before she was in the Hall of Qinzheng, she proposed to the emperor to visit the Empress Dowager Hua in Sanhua Temple, but the emperor refused without hesitation.

Not being able to go, although Ying Ning was unhappy on the face, she didn't care in her heart.

She didn't expect the emperor to allow her to go out, her real purpose was to let Ci'er go.

Sure enough, when the emperor heard that it was changed to let Ci'er visit Empress Dowager Hua for her, the emperor quickly agreed.

In the early morning of the next New Year's Eve, Ci'er came to see her mother and brought a lot of things.

"I prepared these for the emperor's grandmother." Ci'er also missed her grandmother very much, and was very happy to hear that she could visit Sanhua Nunnery. She prepared a lot of food and clothing to bring to the emperor's grandmother.
