"Guards," The Emperor's face darkened and he shouted, "Go to the pantry and invite that palace maid here. We have something to ask her!"
"Yes, Your Imperial Majesty!"
Hearing this, a eunuch immediately left to carry out the order.
Not long after, a palace maid hurried over under the eunuch's lead. She walked to the Emperor and bowed, "Greetings, Your Imperial Majesty."
"Let us ask you, has Concubine Shu been to the pantry?"
The Emperor's eyes were cold and stern as he asked expressionlessly.
The palace maid slowly rose to her feet, "Concubine Shu has indeed been to the Imperial Kitchen and asked if the medicine I was brewing was for Lady Yun to use for the Empress. At the time, I had already told Your Highness Concubine Shu that the medicine was for Lady Jia. "
Concubine Shu's body had already gone limp on the ground. Her beautiful eyes were filled with despair as she stared miserably at the man's cold face. This was the first time she felt that he was so terrifying …
Yes, this man was worthy of being the ruler of a country. He would do anything! For the sake of one woman, he would not hesitate to sacrifice another …
All the officials were stunned by this scene. Did Concubine Shu not claim that Yun Luofeng had poisoned the Empress? But Yun Luofeng's medicine had not been processed by the pantry. How did she manage to see Yun Luofeng's maid in the pantry to poison him?
"Imperial Mother, what's going on?" Jiang Mengyao frowned and turned to ask Concubine Shu. .
"I … I don't know. It was this palace maid. She deliberately framed me. Your Imperial Majesty, you must uphold justice for me!"
Even now, Empress Shu still refused to admit her mistake and only wanted to push the blame onto others.
"Enough!" The Emperor shouted coldly, "You say that the palace maid framed you. What about Great Master Xuan Tian? He can prove it too! Could it be that Great Master Xuan Tian also wanted to harm you? "
Great Master Xuan Tian's medical skills were brilliant. Even the Emperor had to be courteous to him. Concubine Shu swallowed when she saw Xuan Tian's furious gaze. Her throat felt dry.
"Hehehe."
Just then, a tender laugh rang out from the treetops, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
The guards beside the Emperor also drew their swords and guarded him. They stared vigilantly at the ancient tree from which the laughter came.
On the treetops sat a little girl dressed in red. Her skin was as white as snow, and she looked like a delicate porcelain doll. Of course, the prerequisite was to ignore the little girl's arrogance.
"Back in Karghalik, someone wanted to make me a scapegoat. Now that I'm in the Imperial Palace, someone wants to make me a scapegoat too!" The little girl jumped down from the tree and landed steadily on the ground. "I'm sorry, I won't take the blame for this!"
"I wonder if it is her?" Concubine Concubine Concubine Xuan Concubine Xuan Xuan Xuan Concubine Concubine Master Xuan Concubine. "Is she?"
The palace maid shook her head and reported respectfully, "Your Majesty, that little girl is not as beautiful as the one in front of me. I'm sure it's not her!"
"Of course that little girl isn't as beautiful as our fire."
Suddenly, a clear voice came from outside the palace courtyard. A moment later, an extraordinarily handsome man carrying a little girl walked in. She threw the little girl to the ground and raised her fists: "Emperor, that dimei of mine has long determined that there will be someone who wants to harm the Empress, so she had me wait outside the dining room. Now, I have caught a person who wants to harm the Empress. Emperor, please make a decision."
