"Oh, in that case, then tell me who dares to harm people." The emperor said as he looked at the Miao people.
The Miao man chuckled. Although he looked miserable, it did not affect his joking.
I only heard him say in a strange tone: "How funny, wasn't it you, His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, who asked me for poison?"
this……
It has to be said that after these words were spoken, it was like a bomb that shocked everyone, especially Situ Yao. He could never have imagined that at this time, he would be bitten back by the Miao people.
"What's going on? It's the prince?"
"Who knows? Maybe it was really the prince who did it. But, if it was really the prince, why is he like this now?"
Everyone was in an uproar and could no longer see the current situation clearly.
Situ Yao knew that he couldn't panic at this time. He knew exactly what was going on. How could he be frightened because the Miao people turned against him in the middle of a battle?
"Hahaha, good, well said." Situ Yao's sudden laughter, despite his anger, left everyone puzzled. What had happened? Was he irritated and crazy?
"Come on, bring that man up." The subordinates heard Situ Yao speak and hurried away.
After a while, a disheveled person whose appearance could not be seen clearly came in.
After putting the people down, Situ Yao waved his hand and asked them to leave.
The man slumped to the ground, his hands hanging limply and strangely, his legs motionless. Even though this posture was uncomfortable, he did not move at all.
Everyone could tell at a glance that this person's hands and feet were broken, but no one knew why the prince would allow such a person to come up.
"Prince, what do you mean?" The emperor covered his mouth and nose when he saw this. He had always lived a life of luxury and had never seen such a dirty and smelly person.
Situ Yao bowed to the emperor and said, "Father, this person is a palace maid. I found her in the dry well in the cold palace."
But, so what? What does this have to do with what's happening now?
The emperor's expression did not improve after Situ Yao's explanation, but worsened: "Then why did you let her come here like this?"
Knowing that he hadn't explained it clearly, Situ Yao added, "Perhaps Father will understand once he takes one look at her face."
After saying this, he said to the man, "Raise your head and let the emperor see it."
The person obediently raised her head slowly, and someone tactfully brushed aside her messy hair, revealing a dirty face.
Situ Zhao was shocked. If he remembered correctly, this person should be someone close to his mother. But why was she here?
I still remember that my mother told me that it was she who asked this palace maid to poison Concubine Hui, and then she had someone secretly throw her into the well. Unexpectedly, she was lucky enough to survive.
Not only did he not die, but he was actually rescued by the Crown Prince. This matter is probably over. I wonder if my mother has any way to deal with it.
"Isn't this someone close to Concubine Bai?" After all, the emperor had been married to Concubine Bai for many years, so the people around her looked somewhat familiar to the emperor.
Although I didn't recognize it at first, I remembered it after looking at it carefully.
Hearing the emperor mention his mother, Situ Zhao just nodded and said, "Yes, I heard from my mother that she disappeared some time ago. I didn't expect..." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted.
"Gone? The Imperial Concubine is so cruel! I worked so hard for her, but I never thought she would end up like this."
The people on the ground looked at Situ Zhao with hatred in their eyes. How could she not hate him? She had been forced to poison people, and in the end, she was betrayed.
Although the person in front of her was not Concubine Bai, but her son, the palace maid also held a grudge against Situ Zhao.
Haha, she can only blame herself for meeting the wrong person and having such a master.
However, she doesn't care so much now. She just wants to pull down the person who harmed her from the high position and let her know what it means to be in sync.
"Your Majesty, I am a maidservant of the Bai Guifei. The Bai Guifei forced me to poison the Hui Guifei and then threw me into a well in an attempt to kill me. I am guilty, but I do not want to see the culprit go unpunished."
Every word the maid spoke was full of emotion, which showed that she was not lying.
Although the palace maid has revealed the real culprit behind the scenes, some problems have not been solved.
"You said that it was Concubine Bai who asked you to poison? They have always had a good relationship. How could Concubine Bai poison Concubine Hui?" the emperor asked.
This question is also what everyone is curious about.
"I don't know why Lady Bai poisoned Concubine Hui." The palace maid was speechless at this time. She didn't know what the reason was. She couldn't understand why she was asked to poison Concubine Hui. But how could her master explain anything to her?
"Father, why don't you call Concubine Bai over and ask her." Situ Yao said. They finally had a witness, and this time he would definitely not let Concubine Bai escape.
Come to think of it, the emperor summoned Concubine Bai.
Concubine Bai had been very worried about what happened today, and now that she was summoned, she was even more scared.
Step by step, she came to the main hall and saw the man on the ground at a glance. She recognized him at a glance.
My heart skipped a beat. Oh no! What’s going on?
Why was she here? Did she say anything? These questions kept circling in Concubine Bai's mind.
Now she had to worry, what should she do if this palace maid reported her?
However, Concubine Bai was a woman who had been in the harem for many years and had experienced many ups and downs. She was just a palace maid, so she adjusted her mentality in an instant.
After paying respects to the Emperor, she asked, "I wonder why the Emperor has summoned me?"
It was no different from usual, but it made the emperor feel hesitant. If it was really Concubine Bai who did it, then why didn't she panic when she saw this palace maid?
After asking the maid to repeat what she had just said, the emperor spoke again: "What do you want to say?"
Concubine Bai then pretended to have just noticed the maid and asked in surprise, "Why is it you?"
Then she turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, you must believe me. I have always had a deep bond with Concubine Hui, like real sisters. How could I have ordered someone to poison her? I am innocent!"
The maid had never expected that at this moment, Concubine Bai would still cry out for injustice. She was also afraid that the Emperor would be deceived by Concubine Bai's words, so she hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, every word this servant has said is true. Please examine it carefully."
