Li Yingying's crying stopped abruptly. She just looked at the young and handsome Emperor as if he was a stranger at this moment.
"This lowly servant is a slave of your Feng Qi Palace. Imperial Concubine didn't discipline her properly, so she caused trouble. Now, Imperial Concubine still wants to plead for her?"
The man's emotionless words made Shen Yueji have no doubt that he meant that if she dared to plead for her, he would definitely deal with her as well.
The development of the matter was beyond Shen Yueji's expectation. Even if she had taken all precautions to come here, she had neglected that the red-eyed Feng Jiuqing and the black-eyed Emperor were two different people.
In front of the red-eyed Feng Jiuqing, no matter what she said or did, he would not listen.
"Your Majesty."
Shen Yueji knelt on the ground and looked neither servile nor overbearing. "Your Majesty, please investigate this matter clearly. It's because I know that Li Yingying is a slave of my Feng Qi Palace. I have known Li Yingying for some time, and I know her a little bit. I am willing to believe everything she said is true. Recently, the rumors about the late Empress have been spreading in the harem for some time … "
She raised her eyes and saw Feng Jiuqing's gloomy face, which was like an iceberg that was about to burst.
She gritted her teeth and braced herself. "I know that Your Majesty loves the late Empress, and you hate Li Yingying for not knowing what to do and hurting the late Empress's body, but …"
She raised her head. "Your Majesty also punished Li Yingying, didn't you? The injury on her arm is enough to relieve Your Majesty's hatred. At this moment, Your Majesty should calm down and analyze who is behind all this. Before this, there was a slave who claimed to be from Xianghe Palace who was ordered by the Empress to say that Your Majesty had a headache in the Imperial Study and asked me to come and accompany Your Majesty. To relieve the headache. I was not feeling well, so I stayed in Feng Qi Palace for some time and asked Li Yingying to come and visit me first … "
"Although I don't know what happened after she came to the Imperial Study, I can guarantee that there must be someone behind all this. Moreover, that person must have come for this concubine. This concubine was unwell and couldn't come earlier, so Li Yingying rushed ahead of this concubine and caught up with this matter. "
At the side, Li Yingying complained in a low voice, "What Imperial Consort Niang said is absolutely true. This servant … It was this servant who made the decision to come to the Imperial Study to visit His Majesty behind Imperial Consort Niang's back. Everything is this servant's fault …"
If she had known that this would happen when she came to the Imperial Study, she would never have thought of doing that.
Only now did she understand what Shen Yueji had said to her before entering the palace. In this harem, there were dangerous places everywhere. If she was not careful …
In the past, she didn't think much of it. She thought that as long as she was kind to others, she would be worry-free in the harem. Even if she didn't have a huge family, what could she do?
But now, such thoughts had long since been erased from the bottom of her heart.
"According to Imperial Consort Niang, this matter is related to the Empress?"
"This concubine is also afraid that there is a trap. Although that slave who claimed to be from Xianghe Palace claimed to be a slave of Xianghe Palace, this concubine has never seen her before. I only felt that this person was unfamiliar, so before she left, I ordered someone to secretly detain her. As for today's matter in the Imperial Study, His Majesty only needs to ask that slave to know."
"Imperial Consort Shen is really scheming."
This sentence was neither light nor heavy. It seemed to be a compliment, but also a criticism. Read the latest chapter of "Exploding Cute Pet Concubine: The Prince Regent, Messing with Claw Book House" for free.
