This kind of trust seems to be unconditional and does not require any proof. It seems to come from the heart and is not false.
She looked at Young Master Gu Yun's calm and handsome face, with thought in her eyes.
Xiao Shengxing curled his lips: "There is no reason, I just believe in you unconditionally."
After saying this, his black eyes were very calm and without any ripples, just looking at the person in front of him.
Su Lijin was stunned by these words, and a blush appeared on her face for no apparent reason.
This person actually said that he believed unconditionally?
She had imagined several answers, but she didn't expect it to be this...
he……
Thinking of the man's confession to her when she was infected with the plague, Su Lijin felt a slight warmth in her heart. Could it be that his feelings for her...
Just as she was thinking about these things, Xiao Shengxing spoke up, changing the subject: "The Emperor has given me a mission."
When Su Lijin heard the word "Emperor", her thoughts were immediately pulled back.
She asked, "What mission?"
Xiao Shengxing's dark eyes deepened slightly: "The emperor's mission for me is to investigate the queen."
"The Emperor asked you to investigate the Queen?!"
These words immediately made Su Lijin's eyes suddenly lift up: "Are you serious? Is there something wrong with the Queen?"
Her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly thought of the substitute. Could it be that the emperor also noticed something unusual?
Taking in her expression, Xiao Shengxing said, "The Queen's child is not the Emperor's. This matter is somewhat complicated."
"This...that child isn't the emperor's?"
Su Lijin asked without thinking, but as soon as she said that, several images immediately popped up in her mind.
The figure of the fake emperor that he had seen in the palace earlier appeared before his eyes.
She remembered that at that time, she saw the emperor's substitute.
That substitute will favor the concubine on behalf of the emperor.
Could it be that Yan Jia was also favored by the substitute emperor?
Su Lijin thought about this for a few moments, and she inexplicably relaxed.
She herself didn't even notice the feeling of relief.
Xiao Shengxing stared at her and said, "So, this time, the Emperor has assigned me to investigate the Empress's matter."
Hearing this, Su Lijin pulled herself out of her thoughts and said after some deliberation, "To be honest, I know a little bit about the Queen."
Facing the questioning look from Young Master Gu Yun, Su Lijin said, "The queen in that palace is fake."
Xiao Shengxing's black eyes moved slightly. He looked at Su Lijin calmly. There was no distrust in his eyes, just a simple inquiry.
Facing him, Su Lijin thought of Yan Jia's face that looked exactly like her own, and nodded solemnly: "She is a fake. Her name is Yan Jia. She is not the queen. No matter how much she looks like her, she is not the queen."
While investigating in the palace, she did not remove Yan Jia's human skin mask, but this matter was still a mystery hanging in her mind.
But now is not the time to think about this.
"If hers is fake, where is the real queen?"
"The real queen is in Yaoyue Palace."
Su Lijin narrowed her eyes. "I think that the fake Queen Yan Jia must have used some means to harm the Queen, so that she could take her place openly and prevent the real Queen from returning to the throne."
"This matter is truly abominable." Xiao Shengxing's black eyes were deep.
"Right now, could you do me a favor?"
Su Lijin suddenly said.
I'm afraid only the person in front of me can help me with this.
Xiao Shengxing faced her, looked at the emotions in her eyes, and took the request into his heart.
He nodded immediately: "I can agree to this."
"Then please arrange a reasonable identity for me to enter the palace. I think..."
"No!" Xiao Shengxing said firmly.
Su Lijin was stunned, obviously not expecting that he would reject her.
Su Lijin couldn't help but ask, "But what?"
Xiao Shengxing said, "I know you're doing this because of the fake queen, but I think the emperor has already discovered it. Maybe it's just..."
"I believe the Emperor and Empress are deeply in love. If the Emperor finds out, he will definitely expose it."
"If I arrange it, I'm afraid you will regret it." Xiao Shengxing said.
"Then I'll trouble you."
Although the two of them weren't deeply in love, Xiao Shengxing's attitude at least meant he wouldn't sit idly by! I hope Young Master Guoyun is worrying too much.
Once this matter was settled, Su Lijin obviously felt much more relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.
Not long after she separated from Young Master Gu Yun, she received the news that everything had been arranged.
Admiring the man's high efficiency, Su Lijin followed the arranged route and went directly into the palace.
The banquet was very grand, with civil and military officials, as well as the harem, all present.
Fruits and delicacies were also prepared for the banquet, and it looked like an ordinary palace banquet.
On that day, Yan Jia was wearing a phoenix robe and looked very noble.
She ate the tribute fruit fed to her by the palace maids, her eyes full of pride and enjoyment.
Thinking of the queen who fled in a hurry that day, Yan Jia's eyes were full of mockery.
Now, she is the queen, and the original Su Lijin is basically a commoner. The difference in their status is so great that it is absolutely impossible to change!
A concubine toasted the queen, and Yan Jia accepted it proudly and drank a glass.
Just as she was about to put down her wine glass, a woman with a stunningly beautiful face walked into the palace banquet hall.
The woman looked exactly like the queen sitting high on the throne, which immediately caused an uproar among the crowd.
"What is this? Why does this person look exactly like the queen?"
"What on earth is going on?"
