"Your servant..."
Zhihe pondered, not looking up at anyone.
The Queen was somewhat displeased
"If you smell it, then you smell it. If you don't smell it, then you don't smell it. Why are you still hesitating?"
After being scolded by the Queen, Zhi He straightened up slightly, speaking in a very relaxed tone.
"This servant did not smell the same smell in the princess's room."
"This morning, I went to the princess's room..."
"Nothing unusual."
The expression on Luo Zhaozhao's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.
The tea in the tea was warm and delicate, and paired with Gu Qingsheng's pink Dankou, it had a somewhat elegant look. A smile played at the corner of her mouth as she lowered her head to drink the water, but it quickly disappeared.
"seeing is believing."
Facing Gu Qingsheng, Chu Zhiyao's eyes were full of indifference.
"I believe the princess wouldn't mind if I ask my subordinates to search the princess's room?"
It seems that Chu Zhiyao will never let go of any opportunity to bring him down.
Gu Qingsheng found it a little funny in his heart. Just like he was reborn with the memories of his previous life, and then targeted Luo Zhaozhao in every way, could it be that Chu Zhiyao also inherited the resentment from his previous life?
She put down the teacup gently
"Although we are in Luofo Temple, those are my rooms, and the people the general is with are all men. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to search my boudoir like this."
Baolan's kneeling figure was trembling a little. She was a little worried. If Gu Qingsheng didn't let anyone search the room now, their whole show would be in vain.
Just when she was about to wail twice more, Gu Qingsheng immediately took over.
"However, I have nothing to fear from my own shadow. Although the men General Chu brought with him are not suitable, we can find some maids to search."
"Since this matter involves Miss Luo, how about letting Miss Luo take the lead?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Qingsheng would come to my door in person.
Luo Zhaozhao shifted her gaze and looked into Gu Qingsheng's deep eyes, but she did not express any joy about this matter.
Gu Qingsheng's scheming was no less shallow than hers. She didn't believe that Princess Changle would allow herself to be manipulated like this.
But now that things have come to this point, if I continue to shirk responsibility, the Queen will become suspicious.
Obviously everything was going as he expected, but Luo Zhaozhao still felt unsure.
"In that case, please come in, Princess."
Little did they know that in a place where Luo Zhaozhao couldn't see, Bai Lu and Gu Qingsheng looked at each other with some understanding on their faces.
After arriving at the room, Bai Lu moved a chair for Gu Qingsheng and sat down as if no one was around.
The queen was in the pavilion outside the room, with her eyes slightly closed, waiting for the result inside, but her fingers were tapping on the stone table.
Because the two parties were very far away, even the Queen couldn't figure it out after seeing Gu Qingsheng's calm expression. She opened her eyes and revealed a dark and shadowless look, and said to Zhihe who was fanning herself beside her.
"What do you think about this matter?"
Zhihe lowered her head slightly, leaned against the queen, and concealed her calm eyes.
"Queen, have you heard the rumors about Princess Changle in Jinchu?"
When Gu Qingsheng's reputation in Jinchu was mentioned, it was widely spread even in the palace.
"You mean, she's devoted to General Chu and is willing to use this to threaten Prince Duan?"
"Hasn't she already mentioned this? Besides, I haven't noticed anything from our recent interactions..."
"Your Majesty, please think about it."
While the Queen was thinking, Zhihe took over
"Princess Changle has never denied the rumors, which means she also admits that she once had feelings for General Chu."
"Well, first of all, putting aside the fact that the princess is a wealthy woman and that she likes men like General Chu, how could she, a princess who has rarely traveled outside of Jin and Chu, be colluding with bandits?"
"Secondly, if she really intended to harm the Empress, why did she continue to befriend her and even speak on her behalf in front of the Emperor? This is completely unnecessary."
Based on what Zhihe said, the queen nodded.
Actually, what he said was true. If Gu Qingsheng really wanted to harm himself, then he would have taken too many unnecessary actions.
If they just wanted to get close to me and kill me, there would be no need to use the method of blocking the knife.
"You're right."
"Could it be that we really misunderstood Changle? It seems that this search..."
Thinking for a while, the queen looked at the maids who were searching inside.
"It seems that this search may have found the answer."
"No."
Unexpectedly, Zhihe said this suddenly, with a smile on her face.
"This search will definitely yield results."
Just as he finished speaking, a maid's surprised cry came from the room.
"Found it! Found it! It's exactly the same as that sachet!"
The queen stood up suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief.
Gu Qingsheng also stood up slowly, waiting for the upcoming questioning.
After Luo Zhaozhao came out, she presented the incense bag with both hands. The scent from the incense bag could be smelled from a long distance away, and it was exactly the same as the one in the hall today.
"It is this sachet, Your Majesty."
I took the sachet and it seemed to contain something heavy.
It is expected that this should be the hairpin that Niu Er mentioned.
Although Zhihe said that to herself just now, the sachet was now found in Gu Qingsheng's room, and everything Zhihe said seemed to be overturned.
The queen's face suddenly turned cold
"Changle, what do you say?"
Gu Qingsheng bowed to the Queen, but his expression was as calm as ever.
"Changle, I have nothing to say."
It was this indifferent look that made the current queen even more angry.
If it were before this incident, she would have admired Gu Qingsheng when she saw him like this, saying that he must have the potential to accomplish great things.
But now it seems that he doesn't take me seriously at all and doesn't even bother to explain.
Suddenly, a ball of anger welled up in my heart, which was stuck in my chest and I couldn't vent it for a long time.
The queen gasped in anger and fell straight onto the chair, holding her head with one hand and pointing at Gu Qingsheng with the other hand.
"It's a rebellion, a rebellion, it's really a rebellion... Changle..."
"So, the princess admits that this sachet is a token of love between you and Niu Er?"
Chu Zhiyao said, standing there with an attitude of a winner.
"I……"
Gu Qingsheng was about to answer when the door slowly opened.
The man in auspicious clouds and bright gold stepped in first, followed by a red robe, which made his cold face look a little charming.
"I heard something happened here, so I thought I'd come over and take a look."
Amidst the sounds of many sighs, Chu Zhiyao nodded reluctantly to Xu Qingyi.
"National Master."
The moment he saw Xu Qingyi, Luo Zhaozhao was at a loss and actually hid behind a tree.
"Now it seems that I am not too late, Your Majesty."
Xu Qingyi smiled.
