Chapter 410 The Dog Emperor is Hard to Kill
"But this matter is really serious, and I have to speak up."
"Yesterday, I took Qionghua to visit the Queen Mother. When I entered the house, Wanwan tripped over a carpet at the door."
[Yeah, it hurts so much after I tripped. Wanwan's knees are all bruised.]
"Later, the Queen Mother said that she wanted to remove the carpet, and Qionghua muttered that it should have been removed long ago."
"I felt something was wrong, so I asked Qiong Hua about it after I left Rongle Palace. Qiong Hua said that the carpet had been soaked in drugs, so you wouldn't be able to smell it unless you smelled it carefully."
"And come to think of it, the medicine is actually a tonic."
[It’s all thanks to my sister Qionghua’s superb medical skills. If it were someone else, I’m afraid they wouldn’t have noticed this! ]
"But the only problem is that the Empress Dowager was taking medicine some time ago, and the liquid medicine that the carpet was soaked in conflicts with the medicine that the Empress Dowager was taking."
"If it lasts too long, at best you'll become stupid, at worst you'll die of exhaustion."
"What!" The Emperor of Great Chu staggered when he heard this, as if he couldn't believe that there was someone in the harem who dared to murder the Queen Mother.
"The Queen Mother has always been kind, how could anyone dare to attack her?" His tone was full of anger.
【When evil people do bad things, who cares about the reasons? 】
[Father knows this very well in his heart! You were a good emperor who worked hard to govern the country, but Prince Rong wanted to replace you.]
【If you put yourself in their shoes, you will understand. 】
[But I really can't figure out what Shen Ning is planning. ]
When the Emperor of Great Chu heard this, he frowned and said nothing, but a huge wave of emotion was rising in his heart.
What did Wanwan mean by what she said just now?
Is this the Queen's work?
How dare she be so bold?
Song Qingyan saw the anger of His Majesty, and continued to speak without any delay.
But before she opened her mouth, Song Qingyan kowtowed to the Great Chu Emperor and said, "I have asked someone to check and found that this carpet was made by the Empress. During that period, the Empress did indeed order a medicinal bath."
"Most importantly, after the carpet was delivered to the Palace of Honor, the Queen never appeared in the Palace of Honor again."
The Great Chu Emperor was still in shock and hadn't reacted when Song Qingyan had already started the next topic.
"I wonder if the Dragon Shadow Guards around His Majesty have investigated the Crown Prince's poisoning."
[I'm afraid my father's Dragon Shadow Guards haven't had time to investigate the Crown Prince's affairs yet? ]
[After all, there is still the matter of my father's assassination to investigate. ]
"I have ordered the people around me to investigate this matter, and I have also asked Jin Yu about this matter."
"The poison that the prince was poisoned with came from a snack that the Queen Mother sent to Xingyang Palace."
"Empress Dowager?" The Emperor of Great Chu received a lot of news at once today.
Moreover, I didn't expect that the two girls, Jinyu and Jinxin, were so capable that they could find out so many things within two days.
"Why would the Queen Mother..." The Emperor of Great Chu hesitated, seeming to be indecisive in his heart.
What is impossible in this harem now?
Song Qingyan shook her head and continued, "The Queen Mother has to go to the kitchen to get the ingredients to make these snacks."
"It just so happened that on that day, the Queen Mother wanted to make lotus cakes. Everyone in the palace knew that the Crown Prince liked to eat lotus cakes, so..."
"So someone poisoned those ingredients?" The Emperor of Great Chu is an emperor after all, and he is very sensitive when it comes to these things.
"The maids in the Empress Dowager's palace also confirmed it, saying that they ran into Miss Yue Ran from the Empress's palace on the way."
"In the Empress's palace again?" The Emperor of Great Chu stopped and stared at Song Qingyan.
Song Qingyansi was not affected at all, nodded, and continued: "There is no evidence for this matter so far, and I can only guess that it is related to the Queen."
"I feel uneasy, so I want to inform Your Majesty even if it's late."
"But I hope Your Highness can understand that I have no interest in the position of Queen, and I am not saying this just to win your favor."
[Father, look how scared you made mother.]
[Yeah, just in case you're unhappy...]
[Stop! Don’t think about it anymore. I have a crow’s brain. Don’t think about it anymore. ]
The Great Chu Emperor also hurried forward to help Song Qingyan up: "I know what you mean."
Helping Song Qingyan sit down, the Great Chu Emperor continued, "To be honest with you, Yingyi has been investigating the assassination attempt on us outside Dingze City. Wei Cheng said that those people have connections with the palace."
Song Qingyan pretended to be surprised and asked, "Could it be the Empress as well?"
"Not sure yet." The Emperor of Great Chu shook his head.
The other party's work is not actually very clean, and there are always some small problems left, but people can't find any evidence and can only guess.
Song Qingyan suddenly became nervous while holding the hand of the Great Chu Emperor.
"Your Majesty, what exactly does the Queen intend to do?"
If she wanted to usurp the throne, she had no children of her own and no princes available.
But if she was only trying to win favor by attacking the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Crown Prince, there would be no point in her doing so.
To be honest, it would be better to kill myself.
[What is Shen Ning planning? ]
[If it's just to win favor, it would be better to destroy Qingyun Palace in one fell swoop. ]
【As the queen of a country, she will definitely be the only queen mother in the future. 】
[And if our mother is killed in the same pot, our father might not bother to select concubines in the future. ]
[But Shen Ning attacked these people, obviously because he didn't want the Great Chu Kingdom to continue! ]
【etc.】
Suddenly a strange thought flashed through Lu Xingwan's mind.
[Could it be that Shen Ning is some kind of time traveler who wants to stir up trouble? ]
[Kill the father and the crown prince, and let the second brother ascend the throne? ]
[In this way, we can return to the normal path and continue to develop? ]
The more Lu Xingwan thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed.
The Emperor of Great Chu had already made a decision in his heart.
That night, Yue Ran was taken away from Jinxiu Palace by Zhu Gushan.
In the words of the Great Chu Emperor: "Since there is no evidence, let's have a trial!"
The Jinxiu Palace was peaceful before Yue Ran was taken away.
At this time, Shen Ning and Prince Yi were lying on the bed very intimately.
Shen Ning lay in Prince Yi's arms, saying nothing.
Prince Yi had not tasted Shen Ning for a long time, so he was particularly gentle. The two of them no longer had the previous confrontation.
Shen Ning sighed and said, "This dog emperor is too hard to kill."
Prince Yi gently played with her hair, and his smile became a little more gentle: "Fortunately, the prince has joined the game now. As long as he dies, we can slowly solve them one by one."
"I've said it before, just kill that bastard emperor," Shen Ning said unhappily, "I used to be able to talk to him."
"If we had taken action at that time, wouldn't it have been easy?"
"But now..."
