She has a prince by her side, and the only prince standing in her way is Fuquan. If anything happens to Fuquan, won't she be the one to take advantage?

When he thought of this, he actually felt that it made a lot of sense, so without Mu Sili's guidance, he consciously asked Wu Liangfu to investigate Concubine Tong.

"Wu Liangfu, send people to guard Jingren Palace day and night. Record everything Concubine Tong says and does for me, and the same goes for the palace maid beside her."

"yes."

Wu Liangfu knew that Shunzhi had guessed that it was Concubine Tong, and he also wanted to know whether it was Concubine Tong who did it, so he obediently went to make arrangements.

"Your Majesty, are you suspecting Concubine Tong? But how could a concubine like her have the guts to do such a drastic thing? If this were to be discovered, it would be a grave crime, with the entire family confiscated and their property exterminated."

Shunzhi rolled his eyes at her. If he only knew why, there would be no need to ask Wu Liangfu to investigate.

Isn't this unknown? That's why he asked Wu Liangfu to investigate. However, he hoped that Concubine Tong would not do anything stupid, otherwise the Tong family would be wiped out.

The person behind the scenes who gave the emperor a sterilizing drug was the first person in history. I hope that after the truth comes out, he can still remain so calm.

"I do have doubts. You're pregnant. Don't worry about these things. I have my own plans."

"I understand."

A month later, Shunzhi successfully obtained the news from Wu Liangfu that he had been given a sterilizing drug, and it was indeed Concubine Tong who did it.

At that moment he was not angry, but just felt that it was as expected.

"Wu Liangfu, how could this person be so insatiable? I've already made her, a lowly concubine, happy, how could she harbor any more evil thoughts?

It’s not like I don’t have a son. Even if I really don’t have one, I can adopt one from the royal family to raise. Why does she think that the throne must belong to her son?

There are many greedy people in this world. If the Queen had not entered the palace, I would not even know when I died.

It's a shame that Concubine Ning Que also coveted the position of Queen. Look, compared to Concubine Tong, she is nothing. After all, she doesn't have the guts to drug me."

Wu Liangfu fell silent after hearing Shunzhi's words. "If you're angry, then be angry. Why are you talking about moral principles?" Concubine Ning Que was also miserable. After you mentioned it like that, she must have completely fallen out of favor.

Concubine Tong is really brave. I don’t know how the Tong family taught her to be so ambitious.

If he had known that she had the guts to drug the emperor, he would not have helped her no matter what.

Help her? Damn it, I almost forgot that I am also one of her accomplices in this situation.

I just hope that the emperor will be magnanimous and not vent his anger on me, otherwise I will really have no way to express my suffering.

"Your Majesty, how do you say we should handle this matter? Please make the arrangements, and I will do it immediately."

Shunzhi was disgusted by Wu Liangfu's lackey-like appearance, so did he need his reminder?

Could it be that this dog slave thought that he had forgotten about his convenience for Concubine Tong? If it wasn't still convenient to use it now, I would have dealt with him long ago.

Mu Sili was bored listening to what was going on, so she wanted to go out for a walk, but was discovered by Shunzhi.

"Behave yourself and stay here. You've been causing me so much worry every day. I have no other requests except that you give birth to this baby safely."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will definitely give birth to the child safely. I am just putting you in a difficult position. After all, I don't know whether I am carrying a boy or a girl."

"So what? My body has recovered. It doesn't matter if you give birth to three princesses. I like them. At worst, we can just keep having more. We'll eventually give birth to a prince.

I have only just discovered that these illegitimate sons are still inferior to the legitimate sons. Once their ambitions grow, they will definitely damage the foundation of the country and shake the country's very basis.

I hope you can give me a legitimate son. Even if you only give birth to one, the throne will be his. The legitimate son will succeed me, and it will be legitimate."

"Your Majesty trusts me so much? Since Your Majesty trusts me so much, then I will not be polite. The throne of the crown prince will be mine son in the future. You cannot break your promise."

"I am the emperor, my word is final."

"That's good, but I have a question. What if all the children I give birth to are princes? I suddenly realized that this is a big problem!"

Shunzhi was speechless for a moment. Is there any need to ask this? Isn't it the same result?

But he also realized that Mu Sili was afraid that he would be unhappy because Concubine Tong had drugged him, so she deliberately changed the subject to coax him.

"Although they say the competent get the job, I think it's better to respect the elders, so as to avoid a mess. What do you think?"

"You don't know me yet? I am the most obedient. Don't worry, I will do whatever you say."

"If I remember correctly, Concubine Tong is due to give birth in two months, right?"

"Yes, she's due in two months."

"I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself. I want Concubine Tong to have a difficult birth. You dared to poison me, so how can you not suffer before you die?

As for the Tong family, I will start to take back the power in their hands from now on. Even if they don’t know about this, they are still responsible for poor supervision.

I have never been a good person, so naturally I won't treat them well. Past life causes present life consequences. No matter what the Tong family ends up with, it's all their own fault."

Wu Liangfu didn't dare to say anything. Shunzhi had already asked him to atone for his sins. If he dared to have any dissatisfaction, wouldn't he be courting death?

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will do my job well and atone for my sins."

After wiping the cold sweat from his head, Wu Liangfu retreated.

"Your Majesty, Wu Liangfu serves you quite diligently. There's no need to scare him like that. Look how scared he is!"

Shunzhi rolled his eyes. Who was he doing this for?

"When Concubine Tong first entered the palace, I thought she was quite pleasing to me, so I doted on her for a while. I never expected her to be so vicious at heart that she actually poisoned me."

"The sterilizing drug is not considered poison."

"...How can it not be poison? I almost fell for her trick. Fortunately, you entered the palace, otherwise I would not be alive long."

Mu Sili immediately took three steps back. Could she just say that? What if rumors started circulating that she was causing trouble for the emperor?

Although she is not afraid, it does not mean that she likes being surrounded by rumors. That feeling is like being treated like a monkey for everyone to watch, which is very suffocating!

"Your Majesty, you are the supreme ruler, and you are protected by the laws of nature. Even without me, you will be fine. Concubine Tong's conspiracy will not succeed."

"You don't have to say nice things to me. I'm not someone who can't tell right from wrong. But you said that after Concubine Tong dies, who should raise her child?

According to the rules, you are his legal mother, so it is most appropriate for you to raise him, but you are pregnant, and I don't want you to be too tired."
