Xiao Lingyu felt that the Crown Princess was too clever. Xiao Xier had clearly been cursed with the withering of all things, so how could she not see it?
Xiao Lingyu looked at Xiao Xier again. When she first met Xiao Xier, she did not find any signs of poisoning in her. It was understandable that they could not see it.
"Are you sure they were all trustworthy people around your mother at that time?"
"Yes!" Xiao Xier nodded firmly. "You wrote back asking me to be careful with my words and actions and to be careful, especially my sister. Do you suspect she was the one who harmed me?"
Xiao Lingyu lowered his eyes and thought. Without clear evidence to prove that Wanwuku was ordered by the Crown Princess, it was difficult for Xiao Xier to believe it.
"Except for your father, the emperor, and your mother, who will not harm you, anyone in the palace is a suspect, including your own sister."
"My sister won't hurt me!"
As expected, Xiao Xier didn’t believe that her own sister would harm her.
"She is my biological sister, born to the same mother. I have even left the palace with her twice, and I have never seen her attack me. I believe the person behind this is not trying to harm me, but my mother."
"Oh? How do you mean?"
Xiao Xier said slowly, "My three brothers' experiences have taught me that harming others is mostly for profit. My mother is the empress, and my sister and I are legitimate children. We will inherit the family business and the throne in the future."
"Many of my adult sisters are illegitimate children and cannot inherit the family business. Only when their mother becomes the empress and they become legitimate children will they have the opportunity to compete with my sister for the throne of empress."
"Then Imperial Concubine Xue is the biggest suspect. My father dotes on her very much. Only when the Empress's position is vacant will she have the opportunity to become Empress, and my eldest princess sister can become the eldest sister. Since she is the eldest, she will be thinking of competing with my sister for the throne that my father sits on every day. Oh, and the eldest princess sister gave birth to two sons. My father loves them very much."
There are many hidden dangers in Nankun Palace!
Isn't it very stressful for Xiao Xi'er to face so many opponents alone?!
