"Liu Lang, it's really not me. I already have Ying'er. Even if Sister Shen has something good, I don't have to harm the child in her belly."

Seeing Dongfang Wen's expression relax a little, Song Wanqing continued to argue: "Liu Lang, you don't believe me either, right? Give me a reason."

Dongfang Wen laughed out of anger and wanted to explain.

"You want a reason, right? Chongzheng, bring the man up to me." As soon as the words fell, Chongzheng, who had been waiting outside, heard the instructions, came in carrying a man covered in blood, and threw the man to the ground.

"Princess, Princess, I have done everything you instructed. You said you would protect me."

Song Wanqing looked in the direction of the sound and saw the man below covered in blood. She had never seen so much blood before and she stepped back in fright.

Bihong immediately supported her and said sternly: "Nonsense! My princess doesn't even know you." After saying that, she looked at her young lady with some concern.

She knew that her young lady had been loved by the master and mistress since she was a child. This man's body was covered with hideous wounds of torture. She had never seen such a bloody scene before. He must be scared and would probably have nightmares at night.

Thinking of this, she felt a little resentful towards the Sixth Prince. He spoke sweet words to her young lady before marrying her and promised to treat her well. Her young lady had endured the pain of childbirth for him and had to share her lover with others, but now he was interrogating her without any evidence.

She had no place to vent her anger, and she couldn't, because she knew her identity. She could only hold Song Wanqing firmly and stand firmly behind her. If things got out of control, she would stand up.

Song Wanqing looked at the bloody maid below and subconsciously stepped back, but quickly reacted and stopped.

"Liu Lang, did she say something nonsense that made you treat me like this?"

Zhou Yunxin looked at the prince with a sullen face, refusing to speak about how to punish Song Wanqing. This was not acceptable. If Song Wanqing continued to speak, the prince would relent and let him go.

Opportunity is fleeting.

"Sister, Sister Shen and the prince will not accuse anyone indiscriminately. The slave girl below confessed that she was instructed by you to tamper with Sister Shen's pregnancy-preserving medicine."

"Sister Shen's child is gone. Otherwise, how could a four-month-old fetus, already firmly seated, die in her sleep without anyone noticing?"

Zhou Yunxin became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she was the victim.

Shen Qinghe listened to these words and silently shed tears. "Princess, I have always been respectful and devoted to you, and treated you like a family member. But why can't you tolerate me and my poor child?"

Song Wanqing didn't look at her. When he heard what the two said, his heart moved slightly. It was just as planned.

She did not open her mouth to defend herself, but just stared at Dongfang Wen.

"Your Majesty, after so many years of friendship, don't you trust me as a person?"

Dongfang Wen looked at the stubborn man and his heart softened. He initially suspected Zhou Yunxin's hand and never doubted the princess because he knew how soft-hearted and kind the princess was.

That's why he was so angry when he found out that someone was secretly plotting the plot and found out through interrogation that the princess was the mastermind.

He felt like he had been fooled.

"The evidence is here, I have to believe it even if I don't want to."

"Yes, sister, they say you won't cry until you see the coffin. Now the evidence is right here, and you don't feel the slightest bit of guilt or remorse."

After Zhou Yunxin finished accusing Song Wanqing, she immediately knelt down towards Dongfang Wen and said, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for Sister Shen."

Shen Qinghe's personal maids also knelt down and said, "Your Highness, please make the decision for the concubine."

Dongfang Wen's attitude, which had softened a little just now because of Song Wanqing's words, hardened again.

"You're still quibbling now. I must have misjudged you."

Now it seemed that Song Wanqing's punishment was a foregone conclusion. Zhou Yunxin covered the smile on the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, but soon the smile on her face froze.

Bihong rushed downstairs and slapped her directly, "Bitch, you did something bad and you still dare to bring the princess into this."

A few loud slaps were heard, and Song Wanqing woke up as if from a dream.

"You said it was the princess who ordered it. Do you have any proof? Or are you just talking nonsense and falsely accusing the princess of doing it?"

"Hurry up and tell me, I'm not as kind-hearted as the princess, I have plenty of tricks!"

The maidservant was beaten by Bihong and screamed repeatedly, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

"Yes, someone bribed me to tamper with Concubine Shen's pregnancy-preserving medicine. I saw that person in the princess's courtyard. It was Miss Lan Qiao. I still have the jade pendant she dropped."

"Where is it? Take it out."

The maidservant ignored the pain of her scalp being pulled, reached her hand into the depths and groped for a moment, then took out an exquisite jade pendant.

"It's this, the jade pendant."

Bihong snatched the jade pendant, then released the hair in her hand and presented the jade pendant to the prince and princess at the top.

When Song Wanqing saw the jade pendant, she immediately felt confident, but she couldn't say it directly. A prince couldn't even tell the truth when interrogating a maid.

Moreover, if she suffers injustice from a man, she can express it not only with words but also from other people. The effect will be much better than if she says it herself.

Bihong really lived up to her expectations.

"Your Highness, the princess is wrongly accused," Bihong continued. "A jade pendant of this quality is only for the master, and as far as I know, this jade pendant has never appeared in the princess's makeup box."

"You know, the princess understands the difficulties faced by her subordinates, and she only rewards them with gold jewelry, and never with jade pendants or the like."

Bihong could feel the burning gazes of the people above her and continued, "And the Lan Qiao she just mentioned, although she works in Tinglan Garden, she's just a maid responsible for sweeping and cleaning. Just imagine why the princess would entrust such an important task to her."

Finally, Bihong came to a conclusion, "So there must be a misunderstanding here. Someone must have bribed Lan Qiao from the Princess's Court to find someone from Concubine Shen's Court to tamper with the pregnancy-preserving medicine, making Concubine Shen more prone to miscarriage and eventually miscarrying in her sleep."

When Bihong snatched the jade pendant from the maid, Zhou Yunxin was standing in the direction blocked, so she couldn't see the appearance of the jade pendant at first glance.

Soon, when Bihong presented the jade pendant to Dongfang Wen and Song Wanqing, she saw the appearance of the jade pendant clearly. Her heart was beating like a pillar, and she was a little bit unbelievable, and a bit of it showed on her face.

It turned out to be the jade pendant she lost a few days ago!

However, the jade pendant that had been nowhere to be found before now appeared on the maid who plotted to murder the prince's offspring. Zhou Yunxin felt something was wrong.

What she didn't notice was the pain and guilt that flashed across her face when her personal maid Yuan'er, who was standing behind her, saw the jade pendant...
