This time, Shu Fei came out crying to report.
“Replying to mother, the Crown Prince is chenqie’s son. That year, the Empress switched her son to chenqie’s side, but also switched chenqie’s son to his side. She did this to use chenqie’s son as a target.”
As soon as Consort Shu finished speaking, the Emperor raised his hand in extreme anger and pulled a pillow from the side and ruthlessly threw it at the Empress.
“B * tch, you’re actually so audacious to switch princes around in the palace. You’ve committed the crime of deceiving the Emperor.”
“Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life.”
The Empress begged for mercy. At this moment, the Empress was like a lonely boat in a storm, unspeakably miserable.
But no one pitied her.
Xiao Jiuyuan and Yun Qianyu looked at her coldly.
Didn’t this woman want to kill her? Alright, let’s see who will die first.
While Xiao Jiuyuan and Yun Qianyu were thinking about this, the Emperor suddenly shouted,””Empress Jiang, Prince Huai is your son, so you’re the one who poisoned me?”
How could the Empress admit to poisoning the Emperor? the crime of exchanging a son did not warrant death. If she admitted to poisoning the Emperor, then she, her son, and even the entire Jiang family would be dead.
What’s more, she had already disposed of everything before she poisoned him, and there was absolutely no evidence left behind. The Emperor could not punish her without evidence.
The Empress thought about it and shook her head desperately.”Your Majesty, this poison was not administered by me. Your Majesty, I think it was done by Consort Shu. She knew that I swapped her child, so she hated me and poisoned Your Majesty, then framed me.”
After the Empress spoke, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager both turned to Shu Fei.
They felt that the Empress’s words were reasonable, so Consort Shu was also a suspect.
Consort Shu quickly kowtowed and said,”Your Majesty, this concubine is willing to accept Your Majesty’s search. Your Majesty, please order people to search the Empress’s and this concubine’s Palace. If they find anything in this concubine’s Palace, this concubine has nothing to say.”
“If you find anything in my Palace, I have nothing to say,” the Empress also said in a deep voice.
The emperor’s face was frighteningly dark and his body was so weak that he couldn’t speak. The Empress Dowager ordered,”Someone, immediately search the Empress’s and Consort Shu’s palaces. If you find anything suspicious, bring it here immediately.”
“Yes, Empress Dowager.”
The eunuch received the order to search the two palaces.
In the emperor’s palace, the Empress Dowager’s face was indescribably fierce. At this moment, she was no longer the kind old lady she used to be. She was like a cow protecting her calf, protecting the Emperor.
Looking at the Empress Dowager, Yun Qianyu felt that this scene was a little glaring.
No wonder Xiao Jiuyuan said that the Empress Dowager loved the Emperor more. It seemed that he was right.
Although the Empress Dowager loved Xiao Jiuyuan, she did not care about him. Even if she knew that Xiao Jiuyuan had been poisoned, she did not have much emotional fluctuation.
However, it was completely different when he faced the Emperor.
Yun Qianyu couldn’t help but frown in dissatisfaction. She turned around and looked at Xiao Jiuyuan. Sure enough, Xiao Jiuyuan was also looking at this scene. However, his expression didn’t change much, as if he had long been used to this.
Yun Qianyu couldn’t help but feel sorry for Xiao Jiuyuan. She reached out and put her hand into Xiao Jiuyuan’s hand to give him strength.
She would stay by his side in the future.
Feeling Yun Qianyu’s heart, Xiao Jiuyuan turned around and suddenly chuckled.
His eyes were unspeakably bright and dazzling.
In the future, he would have Yu ‘er. Therefore, nothing else was important.
Outside the palace, the eunuch quickly rushed over.
The leading eunuch came in with something in his hands. He knelt down and reported.
“Reporting to the Emperor, this servant found this thing in the Empress’s Palace. It seems to be medicine, but this servant does not know if it is poison.”
