Su Yun took a bite of the bird's nest and chewed it hard in her mouth.
Zhou Yingwan had naturally heard what happened when she entered the palace. The news that the little guy scared the second princess to tears spread throughout the palace.
She reminded quietly, "This is the second princess's mother, Concubine Rou."
"It turned out to be the little princess's mother."
Su Yun looked as if she understood what was going on.
[You can't blame me for the little princess crying. Who told her to get close to me whenever she had something to do? She even stood up for Rong Xiyue. I just said a few words, and she started crying.]
Su Yun curled her lips.
Rong Xiyue massaged the empress dowager's shoulders, gloating over her misfortune.
She had heard about how Su Yun scared the second princess into tears.
Concubine Rou will definitely not let Su Yun go easily.
The emperor frowned, "Empress Rou, if you want to perform to liven up the atmosphere, just say so. Don't bring Princess Yun'an into the mix."
"Your Majesty, I, your concubine..."
"Shut up, don't embarrass yourself, get out of here."
Hearing the emperor's scolding, Concubine Rou covered her face and left.
"I would like to see Princess Yun'an dance." The Queen Mother suddenly spoke.
[You old witch, I didn't kill you last time, yet you still provoke me. ]
Su Yun gnashed her fangs.
Qi Lian coughed twice and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to perform a dance. I have heard that there is a blood pill in the Qin Dynasty that can keep you young forever, but I don't know if it is true or not."
[My dear second uncle is the best, but how did he know about the blood pill?] Su Yun was grateful and curious.
When the Queen Mother heard this, her face turned cold.
The armor on her little finger broke off.
The emperor was puzzled. "What blood pill? Who did the envoy hear this from?"
“Eh~ Don’t you know, Your Majesty?” Qi Lian looked at Qin Shi, “When the post station caught fire, it was Prince Xian who came to the rescue. Prince Xian once said that he found the blood pill in a farm outside the capital.”
"Prince Xian, what is going on?" The emperor looked at Qin Shi.
Qin Shi walked to the center of the hall and knelt down.
"I dare not say."
"Tell me, tell me and I will take charge of it. Is there something else going on?" the emperor said in a deep voice.
Qin Shi hesitated for a moment and glanced at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother stared at Qin Shi. She didn't believe that the Emperor didn't know the truth.
It must be the Emperor, Prince Xian, and the envoy from the Nanyue Kingdom working together.
One was to get rid of Zhao Youxiang first, and the other was to pull her down.
The Queen Mother glanced at Eunuch Li, and Eunuch Li nodded.
Everything has been done, and even if we investigate, we can't trace it back to the Empress.
The Queen Mother was relieved.
Qin Shi had not stood up. "Father, a lot of babies disappeared in the capital some time ago. On the surface, it was Rongxing Hou who was trading in human flesh, but in reality, it was the Empress Dowager who had someone refine the blood pill."
"How dare you! Does Prince Xian have any evidence?" The emperor slammed the table, his face full of anger.
The Queen Mother laughed sarcastically. One was white-faced, the other was red-faced. The Emperor really put on a good show for her.
Qin Shi seemed to be frightened, "Father, calm down. If there is no evidence, I will never say anything nonsense."
He took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.
"Father asked the imperial physician to examine this blood pill."
Eunuch De took it and gave it to the emperor.
The emperor opened it and poured out two bright red blood pills.
After a while, Imperial Physician Lin arrived.
After smelling the pill, he crushed one in his hand and sniffed it.
Imperial Physician Lin bowed, "Your Majesty, this blood pill is made from flesh and blood."
Qin Shi added, "Father, this blood pill was found in Qiansi Manor, and my sister can testify to this."
"Fuying, is this true?" asked the emperor.
"Every word of what I said is true! This Qiansi Zhuangzi is the Zhuangzi of my grandmother."
"Oh, could it be that this is the evidence that Ying'er and Shi'er were talking about? I have long abandoned this farm and left it in disrepair. If someone were to frame me, it would be easy." The Queen Mother took a sip of tea.
Qin Shi shook his head, "Of course there is more than that. The prince can also testify that this Blood Dan prince has also been seen in the Royal Grandmother's palace."
The Queen Mother looked at Qin Mian in disbelief.
Well, she thought she had raised an obedient dog, but it turned out to be a biting wolf.
Qin Mian knelt down and said, "Father, I have indeed seen the Royal Grandmother taking the blood pill."
"If the emperor doesn't believe me, feel free to search my palace to see if I have the so-called blood pill." The queen mother stood up. "If not, it would be extremely unfilial to falsely accuse an elder!"
【Use the Truth Tulu Monster on the Queen Mother. 】
Su Yun muttered to herself.
Now that the time has come, she decides to add fuel to the fire.
If the Queen Mother died, Rong Xiyue would really be left without anyone to rely on.
But she didn't expect that the prince would turn against her.
Then, Su Yun figured it out.
[The prince's mother was killed by the queen mother, so it's not surprising that she turned against them.]
[Ask quickly, this truth will only be used once, the Queen Mother can tell the truth for an hour, this opportunity is rare, it will never come again! ]
Shan Qingfeng's eyes lit up. This thing was great. If it were mass-produced, wouldn't all the criminals be able to confess at once?
The emperor suppressed his excitement and did not ask about Princess Pingyang.
"Mother, if you tell me the truth about the blood pill, I will spare you because of the relationship between mother and son."
"I won't confess! Even if I asked Master Yao to capture the baby and refine the blood pill, so what?" The Queen Mother's eyes were filled with fear. She didn't understand why she would tell the truth.
The words in his mouth continued.
"Gao Qian loves my face the most, and I must take good care of it. This is what the late emperor and his successors owed me, and it is only right for me to kill a few people of the Great Qin!"
Rong Xiyue's body was stiff. Why didn't the Queen Mother confess herself?
This is too stupid.
The whole audience was in an uproar, unable to believe it.
Some of the Queen Mother's people opened their eyes wide.
"Someone, take down the Queen Mother."
The emperor had a gloomy face and Guard You was holding the empress dowager's arm.
"Your Highness, please entertain the envoy. I will leave first."
The emperor was still waiting to ask about Princess Pingyang.
This matter must not be asked in public. If Su Yun had really said it in her heart last time, he would not let those who knew about it go.
Fu Yuan also quietly retreated and followed the emperor.
He also had many questions. From what Su Yun said, things were not as he had investigated.
After the emperor and his men left, the banquet did not last long and ended.
Palace of Heavenly Purity.
In the past, only the emperor, Fu Yuan and the empress dowager were in charge of reviewing memorials.
Fearing that the empress dowager would hang herself, Fu Yuan pressed her acupoints and broke her teeth one by one.
The emperor looked at her coldly, "Queen Dowager, I want to ask you, why did you attack Pingyang, and how did you do it?"
The Queen Mother's acupuncture points were pressed and she couldn't move, but she blurted out uncontrollably.
"She killed my children first and then I couldn't get pregnant. She also made me watch Gao Qian die in front of my eyes. She deserves to die! The late emperor deserves to die too! He protected her first and then she killed me. I didn't want to enter the palace at first, but because of a word from the late emperor, the two lovers were separated.
They died too easily, and I feel resentful. I also want to let their descendants experience the pain of losing their loved ones."
"Is this why you took action against Pingyang?" The emperor gritted his teeth. He never thought it was because of this.
Well, his mother killed the Queen Mother’s child, so the Queen Mother can come and harm him.
Why did we have to move to Pingyang?
Pingyang was not born by the Queen Mother, so how could he be innocent?
