Feng Jiuqing involuntarily tightened his grip.
Listening to the girl's weak and helpless cry, he said in a low voice, "No matter what Yiner becomes, I will not despise you."
"But … but I don't want to be unworthy of Your Majesty."
Feng Jiuqing gently stroked her trembling back, "No, in the whole world, only Yiner is worthy of me."
"Your Majesty, the prime minister and his wife heard that Her Highness was poisoned in the palace, and now they are rushing to the palace. Shen Guifei's methods are extremely ruthless. This kind of concubine with a heart of snakes and scorpions, Your Majesty, you must look at the Gu family's loyalty to you and seek justice for Your Ladyship. "
Mammy Li's voice was loud and clear.
There was a blood stain on her wrinkled forehead.
She burst into tears, "Her Highness has never been hurt like this since she was a child. If Her Highness's face is ruined, how can she face others in the future! In the court, in the capital, if the emperor's Empress is an ugly woman, she will definitely be laughed at by the ministers in the court and be criticized! Your Majesty! "
A gentle and elegant face, when used to be gentle, suddenly ignited the flame of anger, made people dare not look at it.
All the servants in Xianghe Palace felt that the atmosphere in the hall was extremely cold.
It was so quiet.
Even the sound of breathing could be clearly heard. They suppressed their heavy and fearful breathing, for fear that anyone who made a loud sound would be angered.
The cold and oppressive air seemed to be able to tear a person's body.
However —
At this moment.
"This Yulu ointment, I only have one bottle. When I learned that my sister's face was covered with red rashes, I didn't think about it and quickly took out this ointment for my sister to use. Even if my hand was festering, I still wanted to cure the injury on my sister's face. This concubine's hand is fine. "
Shen Yueji's almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears, and she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
From this angle, it could be seen that her originally red and swollen hand was also corroded by the fire orchid. It was not as serious as Gu Yueyin's, but it still made people feel numb.
In the face of Shen Yueji's arrival, the extremely cold atmosphere in the hall was once again faced with frost.
Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to raise their heads.
Feng Jiuqing's eyes were as cold as a blade.
When he saw Shen Yueji's hand, which was also red and swollen, his dark eyes flickered.
"Empress, even if my Shen family and your Gu family have always been at odds, you can't frame my Lady Consort like this, right? My Lady Consort kindly gave you the only bottle of Yulu Ointment, just to treat the wound on your face. You said you were grateful, but behind her back, you ordered your maid to find a place to bury this Yulu Ointment, just to frame my Lady Consort! You've done this, and now you're making a false countercharge. Isn't it because you're relying on His Majesty's love for you? "
"Dare I ask, how can you face my Empress by doing this?"
Double Happiness opened his palm, and the familiar porcelain bottle was reflected in everyone's eyes again.
What was different was that this time, the porcelain bottle in her hand was not as lustrous as before. Instead, there was a dull aura. If one looked closely, they could even see a circle of soil on it.
Seeing the Yulu Ointment in Shuang Xi's hands again, not only Mammy Li and others, but also Gu Yueyin's face changed.
Shen Yueji knelt on the ground, letting the tears in the corner of her eyes slide down her pale cheeks.
