"Empress!"
Nanny Chang was startled and her face turned pale. She used all her strength to catch the queen in her arms just before she fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty the Queen!"
Nanny Chang kept calling out, and the queen didn't really faint, she was just angry for a moment, so she felt dizzy.
She opened her eyes at the moment, but felt that she could not see anything, but she didn't care about that.
She just wanted to know urgently how this matter was related to Jun Mochen.
The queen stretched out her hands and grabbed Nanny Chang's sleeves. She tried to open her eyes wide and look in Nanny Chang's direction.
"Explain to me clearly, what do you mean by this matter is related to Chen'er? How is it related to Chen'er?"
"Chen'er has no grudge against Concubine Yu, so why would he use something like this to harm her?"
Nanny Chang also found this matter very strange, but now, all the evidence points to Jun Mochen, not to mention Chen Yan's testimony.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the medicinal wine the Emperor drank was originally intended for Princess An, and the one who drugged it was none other than the Second Prince's wife..."
The queen's eyes were filled with shock and confusion, and the muscles on her cheeks were twitching slightly.
She clearly understood every word that Nanny Chang said, but why couldn't she understand when they put them together?
What do you mean the wine was originally meant for Sang Liwan?
Also, what does it mean that the person who drugged her was Chen Yan?
This was completely different from what she had expected.
The queen originally thought that this was a concubine who wanted to take the opportunity to win favor and took the wrong path, and accidentally helped her.
She never imagined that this matter was related to her baby son.
How could it be related to Jun Mochen?
She was completely stunned, and opened her mouth blankly, "Chen'er? What does he want to do?"
Nanny Chang moved her lips, but she didn't say what was on the tip of her tongue.
What else could a man want to do when he drugs a woman?
The queen felt a splitting headache and a dull pain in her chest. She tilted her head, opened her mouth, and vomited blood.
Nanny Chang almost fainted from fright.
She looked at the queen in front of her with a pale face, who was as thin as gold paper, and even felt that the queen might die at the next moment.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Someone, come quickly! Call the imperial physician! Call the imperial physician!"
The Queen's Palace was in chaos, and the Imperial Study was also in chaos.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne, looking at Zhou Li who was kneeling below with an expression of disbelief. He even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
"Lord Zhou, I don't think I heard clearly what you just said."
Zhou Li lowered his head and repeated in detail how Chen Yan drugged Sang Liwan, how the wine glass ended up in the emperor's hands by accident, and how Shen Yan was instructed by the second prince.
Every word was exactly the same as the first time he said it.
Of course, the emperor didn't really not hear clearly.
He just couldn't believe it.
He had kept the harem under house arrest for so long just to find that bitch who was vying for favor and kill her to vent his anger on Yu Shu.
But now Zhou Li told him that this person was none other than his beloved second son.
It was like a slap in the face, causing his ears to ring.
After Zhou Li finished speaking, the emperor did not speak for a long time, as if he was lost in his own thoughts.
Zhou Li did not say anything. The king and his minister just sat and knelt, waiting silently.
Only Eunuch Li, who was standing by and serving, saw the murderous intent towards Sang Liwan in the emperor's eyes again.
That's right.
The emperor, who accepted Zhou Li's words, now blamed all the mistakes on Sang Liwan. If it weren't for this disaster-stricken woman, none of this would have happened.
Eunuch Li, realizing this, found it outrageous.
The emperor glanced at Zhou Li and asked calmly, "Where is the Second Prince's consort?"
Zhou Li said, "The Second Prince's wife has been placed under house arrest by someone I sent, awaiting the Emperor's decision. As for the Second Prince, I have done nothing."
The emperor frowned, "So all of this is just the one-sided story of that woman Chen Yan?"
"yes."
After hearing this, Zhou Li knew that the emperor wanted to protect Jun Mochen and let Chen Yan be the scapegoat.
But it doesn’t matter, they didn’t think of pulling Jun Mochen down from the position of emperor at once.
The emperor nodded. After a long pause, he suddenly asked, "Where is she? I want to see her."
Chen Yan was placed under house arrest by Zhou Li. Sitting on a round stool, she felt surprisingly calm in her heart.
She didn't expect Zhou Li to act so quickly. Before she could fight back, he had already found out about her.
It’s just a pity that such a capable person is not on her side.
She sat there and waited quietly. She didn't know how long she waited before she finally heard some noise outside the door.
She raised her head and saw the man in the dragon robe walking in. For a moment, she felt that the bright yellow robe was extremely dazzling.
Eunuch Li accompanied the emperor in. Seeing Chen Yan motionless, he couldn't help but frowned. He walked forward and flicked his whisk, "Second Prince's wife, are you not going to stand up and see the emperor?"
After hearing what Eunuch Li said, Chen Yan just sneered and continued to sit in his original position as still as a mountain, with no intention of getting up.
Seeing this, the emperor didn't say much, but just raised his hand to stop Eunuch Li from saying anything else.
"You guys step back first."
Eunuch Li was a little worried, but the emperor was very relieved.
"Don't worry, she doesn't want to kill me now. I'm fine."
After hearing what the emperor said, Eunuch Li didn't know what to say. He could only wink at the people around him and take his men out.
Chen Yan raised her head and glanced at him indifferently. She didn't know where his confidence came from, but she didn't refute him out loud and seemed to agree.
The emperor seemed to have been mentally prepared, so there was no sign of anxiety on his face. He was even in the mood to pour himself a cup of tea and drink it slowly.
"Zhou Li told me the whole thing. You said that the Second Prince ordered you to do this?"
Hearing this, Chen Yan slowly raised her head and looked at the emperor with interest, without any fear on her face.
"Why, Father doesn't believe it?"
The emperor said, "I'm a little skeptical. After all, if the Second Prince really has any intentions towards Princess An, it shouldn't be your responsibility."
Chen Yan stroked her sleeves, "Perhaps this is the Second Prince's purpose. Once the truth is revealed, he can put the blame on me. Father, why don't you think about this? If I wanted to do something, wouldn't it be better to just poison me? Why resort to such means?"
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Yan thoughtfully.
