For a moment, everyone present was silent. No one knew why the queen suddenly said such a thing.
Their eyes flickered between Sang Liwan and the Queen, and their first reaction was, could it be that Princess An had offended the Queen in some way?
Come to think of it, Sang Liwan has been in constant turmoil ever since she married Jun Moyi. Even if things have died down now, it doesn't mean that no one will hold a grudge against her for what happened in the past.
Although Prince An is not the Queen's biological son, he represents the face of the royal family after all. Maybe the Queen can't stand him?
Only a hint of joy flashed across Chen Yan's eyes.
She was originally thinking about how to turn everyone's attention to Sang Liwan without arousing suspicion.
I didn't expect that the queen would take the initiative to speak before I even said anything.
In any case, the queen's words are much more useful than hers.
Seeing this, Chen Yan was no longer anxious, and just stood silently beside Jun Mochen, watching from the sidelines.
Although the emperor was skeptical about the assassination tonight, he never thought that the person would be Sang Liwan.
After all, Sang Liwan and Jun Moyi have been under house arrest in Prince An's Mansion these days. Her every move is under his eyes, and he knows best whether she has made any arrangements at this moment.
However, thinking that what he wanted was still with Sang Liwan and he had no clue where to find it, the emperor became a little angry.
So, he just glanced at Sang Liwan lightly and remained silent, obviously not wanting to speak for Sang Liwan.
Seeing this, a hint of sarcasm appeared in Sang Liwan's eyes.
It would have been better to let these assassins kill him and then take the opportunity to recommend Jun Moyi to the throne.
It's really not enough to make things difficult for myself.
When Jun Moyi heard Sang Liwan's inner roar, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He could more or less guess the reason why Sang Liwan took action. She probably guessed, just like him, that the drama tonight was not aimed at the emperor, but at the two of them.
That's why Sang Liwan took the initiative to clear himself of suspicion.
However, what she didn't expect was that even if she took action, these people were still unwilling to let them go.
This is not the Queen's birthday banquet, it is clearly a Hongmen Banquet.
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Jun Moyi said in a cold voice, "Mother, please be careful with your words. This assassination is a serious matter, and there is no room for random speculation."
However, the queen didn't take Jun Moyi's implicit threat to heart at all.
She just glanced at him lightly and then turned her attention back to the dancer.
The queen, who felt that she had seized an opportunity to get rid of Prince An, the thorn in her side, was not willing to let the matter go lightly.
Although the person she pointed out was Sang Liwan, Sang Liwan and Jun Moyi were husband and wife. Jun Moyi said that he knew nothing about this matter, but the queen didn't believe it.
"Tell me, is it her?"
After hearing the queen's words, the dancer seemed to look at Sang Liwan subconsciously, and then shook her head firmly, with a determination that would rather die than surrender.
"No, don't try to trick me into confessing."
However, the look she just gave him was too obvious.
Not only the queen, but also the emperor and eunuch Li all saw it.
Now, even if they were told that this was a frame-up, I'm afraid these people would be terrified.
Only the emperor knew that this was a trap set against Sang Liwan and even Jun Moyi.
But who is this person?
For the first time, the emperor realized that there seemed to be an invisible hand in the dark deliberately controlling the overall situation, which made him feel a little uneasy.
The queen was somewhat annoyed by the emperor's silence.
She had clearly set up the ladder, but this man just wouldn't listen.
Could it be that he still wants to protect his child with that bitch?
The queen secretly resents her.
But she couldn't tell the emperor what was in her heart in public, so the emperor had to make the decision himself.
Then, the empress turned to the emperor, who had been deep in thought, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is full of doubts. I think we should arrest this woman and torture her severely."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the emperor had not yet opened his mouth when he saw that the dancer had already bitten the poison hidden in her mouth. In just two breaths, poisonous blood rushed out of her mouth and nose.
Such a scene shocked everyone present.
The queen stepped back even more. She didn't expect that just when she was about to take people back for a thorough interrogation, the man committed suicide by taking poison.
Seeing this scene, the emperor moved.
"Li Quan, go summon the imperial physician and bring the man back to me, and then torture him severely."
"yes."
Perhaps the emperor saw that the matter had become a foregone conclusion, so he issued an edict in accordance with the queen's words.
However, what no one expected was that the dancer who should have died from the poison was actually saved by the imperial physician.
Now, everyone looked at the imperial physician with something strange in their eyes.
Even people who have eaten poison can be saved, so what about the others?
It's like Hua Tuo reborn, resurrecting the dead and turning flesh into bones.
The imperial physician broke out in sweat when he was stared at like that. He had only inserted a golden needle, so how could he suddenly bring the man back to life?
Looking at the emperor's doubtful face, the imperial physician wiped the sweat from his forehead, knelt tremblingly in front of the emperor, and his voice trembled.
"Your Majesty, this..."
The emperor did not expect that a casual remark of his would change the course of the whole matter.
This person was at the gates of hell, yet he was pulled back?
Apart from this, the happiest person was probably the queen.
She was unwilling to let such an opportunity to overthrow Prince An slip away.
So, while ordering someone to take the man away immediately, she looked at the emperor and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, this is God's will."
Hearing this, the emperor looked at the queen deeply, and finally nodded, "Let's do as the queen wishes."
Seeing that the emperor had given in, the queen was overjoyed.
"yes."
After saying this, as if she was afraid that the emperor would go back on his word, the queen quickly asked Eunuch Li to find someone to take the dancer away.
She just didn't believe that someone who had died once and deeply experienced the despair before death would still die so righteously and heroically, or would deliberately protect the person behind her.
However, it doesn't matter even if this person is a tough guy. She will always find a way to make this matter inseparable from Sang Liwan and Jun Moyi.
Sang Liwan was standing next to Jun Moyi and happened to see the expression on the queen's face.
[Tsk, look at that villainous smile on his face. It seems he has to take the blame this time.]
Hearing this, Jun Moyi rubbed his brows with his hand, "Wanwan, you should believe me."
