An Li sat high on the big black back with a look of disdain on his face.
She exuded an incomparably noble and indifferent aura, unmatched by anyone present.
Even Concubine De, who had been in charge of the harem for more than 20 years, had to crane her neck to look at An Li.
An Li did not respond to the guard's words.
Just sit quietly and wait for Ming Chengnian to come.
The guard was a little angry and embarrassed. Just as he was about to speak again, the nanny came over with Ming Chengnian.
She whispered a few words in Defei's ear, and Defei's face changed immediately.
Putting on a smile, she said in a flattering manner, "Queen of Beichen Kingdom, I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Saint."
Concubine De bowed and saluted.
An Li frowned and said in an unhappy tone, "Queen?"
"This Saint remembers that the Queen of Beichen Kingdom is the daughter of the Jin family."
"And you are just a concubine, yet you dare to call yourself the queen."
"How dare you deceive this Saint!"
Everyone present heard that An Li was humiliating Concubine De.
Concubine De gritted her teeth. She was in charge of the phoenix seal and managed the harem. What was wrong with her being called the empress?
That bitch didn't die last night, but Concubine Yue died instead.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got!
Concubine De said with a look of grievance on her face: "Your Highness, you don't know."
"Sister gave me the Phoenix Seal long ago. I have managed the harem in perfect order, and all the sisters obey my management."
"Even if I attend the banquet, I will..."
She didn't finish her words.
"I am still a concubine after all." An Li said coldly, suppressing Defei's next words.
You still want to take away the title of Queen Mother? Dream on!
In the morning, her second uncle told her about the royal family of Beichen Kingdom.
The emperor was obsessed with immortality and didn't care about the previous dynasty.
The Third Prince Ming Chengze will temporarily be in charge of handling memorials and local affairs.
The biological mothers of Ming Chengze and the sixth prince Ming Chengli were both Defei.
With her son being the crown prince, Concubine De became arrogant and domineering in the harem.
Defei's face turned pale, she clenched her palms and said nothing.
A concubine is a concubine after all. This sentence has weighed on her mind for many years.
An Li glanced at her with satisfaction, then smiled faintly and said, "What is it that Concubine De asked my benefactor to come into the palace?"
"This Saint Lady is also here to watch the fun."
After giving Concubine De a lesson, An Li hit the nail on the head.
Concubine De smiled kindly, "Your Highness, someone was killed in the harem last night."
"A palace maid said that she saw the Second Prince entering the palace in the middle of the night."
"So I want to ask the Second Prince what is going on."
most!
Being able to find out that Concubine Yue was killed by Ming Chengnian, there is also a legitimate reason to get rid of him.
An Li and Ming Xin were stunned for a moment.
It’s impossible to be seen by the palace maids, right?
“Cough cough cough…”
"Everyone knows that this prince was born with an illness. How could he possibly enter the palace in the middle of the night?"
"Isn't this an injustice to this prince?"
Ming Chengnian coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face slightly red, and argued with reason.
Everyone knew that he was ill.
How could he have the strength to climb over the wall and enter the palace without being summoned...
Defei glanced at Ming Chengnian and really didn't see that he was a sharp-tongued person.
He gave the nanny another look, and the nanny pulled out a little palace maid from behind.
"Second Prince, she was the one who saw you enter my sister's Jing'an Palace last night."
"How about a confrontation between the two of them?"
Defei raised a faint smile on her lips. Only if Ming Chengnian had entered the palace last night would he have had the chance to kill Yu Pozi and save that bitch.
Now, everything is explained!
The young palace maid, seeking a lifetime of wealth and honor, said, "Last night, when I went to the kitchen to get some snacks, I took a shortcut and passed by Jing'an Palace when I saw the Second Prince."
"The Second Prince seemed to have entered alone. I left without stopping."
"Empress Defei, this is what I saw."
Concubine De smiled complacently, "Second Prince, where were you last night?"
"Is there anything you want to explain?"
Where could he be?!
He is so weak that he sleeps at home.
"De Fei, this prince is naturally resting at home."
"That little palace maid must have been dazzled..."
Ming Chengnian's expression remained unchanged, without a single flaw on his face.
"My Lady, I am not blinded."
"I can see clearly that it is indeed His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
The little palace maid hurriedly said that what she said was true.
However, I only saw his back briefly...
“Ahem…”
"This is a piece of shit that has been pinned on this prince. I am weak and alone, and I can't even win an argument with you."
Ming Chengnian didn't want to talk anymore.
I'm tired of talking, and there's nothing much to say.
Defei's expression changed. It was not until this moment that she realized that Ming Chengnian was not simple.
I really underestimated him before!
"Second Prince, that's not what you said."
"You are resting in your house. Besides the servants, is there any third witness?"
This is what Concubine De was trying to do.
Even if it's not him, it must be him!
"When the palace maid saw it, was there a third witness? Proof that she wasn't lying?"
Ming Chengnian coughed twice again and said.
Defei was stunned and the question was thrown back to her.
After all, she has been managing the harem for more than 20 years. "Second Prince, there is nothing you cannot admit about entering the palace."
"Someone in the harem has lost his life. Every detail is crucial to the progress of the case."
"I hope you can tell the truth,"
Concubine De was best at moral kidnapping, and she used it with great skill.
but.
This trick is useless against Ming Chengnian.
"Ahem... I'll say it again. I rested at home last night."
