Normally, women should consult the Empress if they have any issues, but Chen Jingxi bypassed the Empress and went directly to the Emperor, even during the morning court...

This made many people think deeply, and it should be related to the appearance of the imperial guards in Prince Su's Mansion last night.

At this moment, the emperor's mind was buzzing, and he agreed without thinking much.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Jingxi stepped into the palace step by step, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Father."

She was wearing a white palace dress, her face was pale, her drooping eyebrows hid endless sorrow, tears were rolling in her eyes, but they never fell.

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment and confusion. Was this the Su Wang Consort? The same Su Wang Consort who was so loud, so aggressive, so indifferent to life and death?

Is it the Princess Su who slapped Concubine Yao in the face at the ice skating banquet and threatened to kill anyone who said another word?

It's so fucking stupid. They are so blind.

Chen Jingxi glanced at the crowd's reactions. Excellent, that was exactly the effect she was looking for. Since she was currently in a vulnerable group, of course she had to act as miserable as possible, ideally to the point where she was completely devastated.

The emperor looked at Chen Jingxi through the curtain and saw her kneeling there quietly, gentle and well-behaved, and looking pitiful.

If she were so docile and well-behaved, she would not be Chen Jingxi.

The emperor frowned and thought deeply. If it was the Chen Jingxi from before, he would not have thought too much about it, but now, he had been deceived by Chen Jingxi so many times.

The emperor touched his head and wanted to curse and chop people.

After a long silence, the emperor finally spoke: "Princess Su!"

Although his voice was not loud, the majesty of the emperor still shocked everyone.

Chen Jingxi knew that the emperor must be very angry, so he said softly, "Your Highness is here."

"Do you admit your guilt?" the emperor asked again, his tone even more powerful than before.

Chen Jingxi raised her head and said, "I don't know."

The emperor snorted in dissatisfaction, "Don't know? You disrupted the imperial court and interfered in state affairs, and you say you don't know your crime?"

It was still early morning court hours, and women were not allowed to interfere in government affairs. Chen Jingxi just ran to the throne room like this. It would be easy for the emperor to accuse her of disrupting court order.

Everyone's eyes involuntarily fell on Chen Jingxi.

Chen Jingxi knew that the emperor wanted to find an excuse to punish her first and suppress her to prevent her from talking nonsense.

She knew that the emperor would definitely find an excuse to punish her if she came at this time, so how could she be completely unprepared?

"Father, I am wronged and could not bear it any longer, so I came to the throne room. I did not intend to disrupt the government. Please understand."

The emperor knew what Chen Jingxi wanted to say as soon as he heard it, and said coldly, "If you have any grievances, go directly to the Queen. How can a woman like you set foot in the Golden Palace?"

Chen Jingxi choked up and said, "Father, it's not that I don't want to find the Empress, but I'm really scared. I'm afraid that the tea in the Empress's palace will be drugged again and used to frame me."

As soon as these words were spoken, the court officials exchanged glances frantically. What was going on?

Yesterday, the Queen asked Princess Su to enter the palace, and then someone drugged the Queen's palace, and in the end, Princess Su became the one who drugged her.

What else did they miss?

The emperor's heart was pounding. Chen Jingxi was determined to tell the court about what happened yesterday.

He sent her back yesterday without punishing her, hoping she would behave herself. Unexpectedly, she turned even more ruthless and even took the case to court. If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have let her go last night.

If Chen Jingxi knew what the emperor was thinking, he would definitely spit at him: Damn it, you two played tricks on me like this and still expected me to be obedient. I didn’t blow up your palace, which is a blessing from my ancestors.

The emperor gritted his teeth and said, "Princess Su, you are too suspicious. If you don't mean to harm others, no one can frame you."

Everyone now understood something. Who did Princess Su harm?

Chen Jingxi raised her head slightly and said with a look of grievance, "Father, I deny the murder of Concubine Wen by drugging her. This matter has nothing to do with me. Please, Father, make the decision for me."

Oh! Everyone suddenly realized that it was Princess Su who drugged Consort Wen. Wait a minute, why did Princess Su drug Consort Wen?

"You don't admit it, but yesterday it was just you and Wen Zhaoyi in the Queen's Palace. How come Wen Zhaoyi became the one who got caught as soon as the Queen left?" The Emperor said with a sarcastic look on his face.

Chen Jingxi said confidently, "Father, if you're poisoned by the tea in this cup, then it's someone in the court who gave you the poison. Father, instead of investigating the true murderer, you want to execute a loyal minister. Is this what a wise king does?"

"How dare you!" Bang! The emperor threw the cup in his hand.

In the entire Golden Palace, no one dared to breathe.

Chen Jingxi was not affected by the emperor's anger at all. She said calmly, "Father, I have evidence to prove that I was not the one who murdered Concubine Wen."

"Evidence? What evidence do you have?" The emperor realized that he had been fooled by Chen Jingxi again.

She clearly had evidence, but she didn't say it at first, insisting on making him angry and further proving that he was not a wise king. She was digging a hole for him to jump into step by step.

Chen Jingxi didn't waste any more time and directly took out the evidence found by the secret guard.

Jiang Hai handed over the evidence and testimony, but the emperor's face darkened before he even finished reading them.

During this night, the people in Prince Su's Mansion found out more and more detailed information than he, the emperor, knew.

There was a lot of news in the palace that he didn't know, such as what was happening in the Queen's Palace, but everyone in Prince Su's Mansion knew about it.

Is this palace his and his wife's?

"Pah..." The emperor slammed the evidence on the table. "How did you get the Imperial Hospital's medication records?"

If he could check the medication records of the Imperial Hospital, wouldn't that mean that the people in Prince Su's Mansion also knew exactly what medicine he took every day?

Chen Jingxi had already thought about this promise. When the emperor asked, she didn't need to think too much and immediately replied, "Your Majesty, last night, after my daughter-in-law was poisoned in the prison, Doctor Sun came to treat her. I threatened to kill myself, and I learned this from Doctor Sun."

Of course, this is not the case. The medication record was copied by the secret guard from the Imperial Medical Bureau's list.

"Really?" The emperor was obviously unconvinced.

Chen Jingxi nodded, "Father, please summon Imperial Physician Sun and ask him about this."

The emperor snorted coldly and ignored Chen Jingxi's words. Since Chen Jingxi dared to say so, it meant that Imperial Physician Sun agreed with her. How could he be so stupid as to ask Imperial Physician Sun to testify for her?

Seeing that the emperor still refused to give in after seeing the evidence, Chen Jingxi could only take the initiative to say, "Father, why don't you summon the maid from the Empress's palace for questioning?"
