Chapter 533 It's just Tiger's toy
When everyone saw this doll, they immediately thought of four words: the art of disgust.
Even Pei Shaorong's face changed drastically!
What's going on? The prince didn't mention this to her!
She looked at Zhao Chengye in panic and uneasiness. Seeing that he was also shocked and surprised, her heart sank.
Could it be that even the prince didn't know, then... Pei Shaorong felt a chill on her back!
The emperor's face was so gloomy that people dared not look directly at him.
"So, so it's like this... No wonder..."
Pei Zhen was the first person to come to his senses.
She stared at the doll on the ground with a dull look, muttering: "So you used this method to harm my child, no wonder... no wonder the doctor didn't find anything wrong with me, so that's it..."
Yes, she had a miscarriage, there must be a reason. But the doctor couldn't find it!
"Where did you find this thing?"
"Your Majesty, we found it in a side hall of the East Palace."
The emperor stared at Zhao Chengye with a gloomy look, and there was a terrifying coldness in his eyes: "Prince, do you have anything else to say?"
Before Zhao Chengye could say anything, Prince Qin couldn't wait to stand up and said, "Prince, you are worried that my concubine will give birth to the first grandson, so you use such means to harm me and my child. How can you be so confused! You can use such a terrible method to harm me today, so tomorrow you can harm my father!"
After Prince Qin finished speaking, Xu Muhua felt that he seemed to see murderous intent in the emperor's eyes.
Well, this method is very risky, but if it succeeds, the lethality is absolutely 100%!
"What are you talking about? This doll... this doll is mine! You don't think this is some kind of trick to win, do you?"
Xu Muhua suddenly said, and without paying attention to the expressions of the people present, she bent down and picked up the doll that was still on the ground.
She was so unexpected that everyone was stunned.
"Concubine Xu, I know you are worried about the prince and the princess, but you can't lie with your eyes open and take the blame on yourself. Do you know how serious this crime is and how serious the consequences are?"
Pei Zhen couldn't help but say, staring at Xu Muhua with eyes full of hints.
Xu Muhua looked at her in confusion, "Pei Concubine, what you said is not right. What do you mean by taking everything on yourself? What do you mean by lying with your eyes open? I am clearly telling the truth!"
She raised the puppet in her hand, then put the puppet against her cheek, forced a smile, and asked, "Don't you think this puppet looks like me?" Are you blind
and can't see it? This is obviously a puppet made in her image!
She can't curse herself, can she?
When she said this, everyone couldn't help but carefully compare her facial features with the puppet, and then found that they really seemed to be quite similar!
"This... Your Majesty, looking at it this way, the doll's facial features are indeed somewhat similar to Concubine Xu's. Could this be a misunderstanding? It can't be that Concubine Xu cursed herself?"
The Queen said.
Of course, the Emperor also saw it, but his suspicion was not so easy to dissipate.
Xu Muhua sighed, "I really didn't expect that I just asked the maid who served me to make a small toy for Tiger Cub to play with in my image, and it could cause such a terrible thing."
Without waiting for Pei Zhen and King Qin to speak, Xu Muhua started to work. After a few flips of his hands, everyone saw that the doll that was originally a doll turned into a tiger!
"Look, this is the doll made in the image of Huzai. Everyone knows that Huzai is my adopted son and is very attached to me. I asked my maid to make a doll for Huzai in my image, and I thought it would be even better if it looked like both me and Huzai."
"This was made by my maid named Shi Liu, who spent a lot of time and effort! Huzai loved it so much after it was made that he would hold it in his arms when he went to sleep. It is usually placed in Huzai's nest. How did you find it in the side hall?" "
Oh no, oh no! Huzai will be in a bad mood if he can't find this doll!"
Just as he was speaking, a little eunuch came in with his body bent, and whispered a few words to the chief eunuch. No one knew what he said. The chief eunuch glanced at Xu Muhua with a complicated expression, then walked respectfully to the emperor and whispered a few words.
The emperor was silent for a while after hearing this, and then he waved his hand and said, "Let them in!"
Everyone present was a little confused. They? Who?
Soon they knew who the emperor was talking about.
Seeing the huge tiger sneaking in, everyone in the room, except the emperor, the master Xu Muhua, and Pei Shaorong who was used to it, was suddenly nervous, and their breath was stuck in their chests. They were so scared!
Tiger cub even roared excitedly, which made Pei Zhen and King Qin pale in fear. They took a few steps back and held the armrest of the chair tightly with one hand to avoid falling on the chair and losing face.
Roar!
It was finally Tiger cub's turn to play!
Tiger boy sneaked to Xu Muhua's side, circled around her feet twice, and finally saw the doll in her hand, raised his head and grabbed it, then lay down at her feet. He grabbed the doll with his two front paws and rubbed it on his cheeks. It was obvious that he liked the doll.
It was obvious that what Xu Muhua said just now was true. This was indeed Tiger boy's toy, otherwise Tiger boy would not behave like this.
For a moment, the whole hall was immersed in a weird atmosphere, and there seemed to be a hint of embarrassment in the silence.
It was just a toy of Huzai, but such a big fuss was made about it, as if facing a powerful enemy. It can be said to be a strategy of disgust...
Among all the people, Xu Muhua was probably the only one with a normal mentality.
She looked at the emperor with an innocent face: "Father, look, I didn't lie, did I? This is the toy I made specially for Huzai! It's not anything like that!" After that, she looked at Pei Zhen and Prince Qin, with a puzzled look on her face: "Your Highness Prince Qin, Concubine Pei, this doll is Huzai's toy. Tell me, how did it cause Concubine Pei to have a miscarriage?"
This question stumped the two of them, and there was a flash of suspicion in Prince Qin's eyes.
There is no mistake in this. That person did say that he placed the doll in the East Palace, and his father's birth date was written on it... How come it has now become a toy for Xu Muhua's tiger?
Even if he had ten mouths, he couldn't lie with his eyes open, saying that this thing was just a trick played by the prince!
Look at the tiger on the ground, holding the doll like his wife!
He wanted to break it back, but how?
Qin Wang had a premonition that what he had been planning for a long time, thinking that he could succeed in one go... was going to fail!
