However, no one answered.
She walked in and took a look around. Apart from Concubine Shu, there was no sign of Xiao Shengxing.
"Where is the emperor?" Su Lijin asked.
Zhao Heng also looked confused.
Concubine Shu's face turned slightly pale, and her fingers trembled slightly under her long sleeves, but she tried her best to maintain her expression and said, "The emperor has already gone back."
She thought to herself that Su Lijin had come at a really bad time. If she hadn't concealed it well, she would have been caught red-handed!
She couldn't help but glance at the swaddling clothes inside. Concubine Shu looked at the silent child and felt a surge of hatred in her heart.
She never imagined that the child would die suddenly.
She just realized it, and before she could figure out what to do, Su Lijin showed up. She almost got exposed!

She touched her nose again, her eyes filled with shock.
The child isn't breathing!
"Call the imperial physician! The little prince is dead!"
Su Lijin immediately called everyone.
Everyone was shocked.
Concubine Shu suddenly rushed over, looked at the child, her face was broken, and her eyes were red as she asked: "Empress, what did you do to my child? Why is he dead?!"
Frowning tightly, Su Lijin said, "I just noticed something was wrong and took his pulse, only to find out he was dead."
"You're lying!" Concubine Shu refused to give in and pointed at her firmly, "The little prince was fine just now. You must be jealous of me, so you killed him!"
