Chapter 64: Yangde Palace Auditorium

"Duhuo." Yun Zhuan handed a warrant to Duhuo, "Remember to hand this one to Banban in person."

"I obey your command." Duhuo nodded seriously.

At this moment, the little girl below came hurriedly to report:

"Your Highness, Concubine Su has sent someone to ask you to go to Yangde Palace."

Yun Zhuan stood up, and after Lu'e had dressed him properly, his expression was calm, with a hint of a barely perceptible smile:

"Lu'e, the fun is about to begin."

Lu'e, who was waiting behind Yun Zhuan, said, "If there is no play, then it would be a waste of all the hard work the young lady has put in."

Yun Zhuan raised his eyebrows and walked outside: "That's true."

Another incident happened in the harem, which was the miscarriage of Concubine Su many years ago.

All the concubines in the palace knew what a chaotic process it was, which led to all the concubines who knew about this incident thinking that it was because of Concubine Su's physical condition that she was unable to keep the child.

However, when I heard that another concubine Zhen had visited Yangde Palace today, I couldn't help but start making bold guesses.

Could it be that not long after Zhen Fei regained her former position of favor, she is about to suffer a great loss again?

The Emperor and Empress, Concubine Ying, Concubine Su, Concubine Zhen, and all those above the rank of Concubine were present in the Yangde Palace, and almost all of them pretended to be calm on the surface, so that there was not even a trace of gloating in their eyes.

But Concubine Rong is still under house arrest, so she won’t be present for such events.

Yun Ju'an was dressed in a simple and elegant manner with a decent smile on his face, but it was obvious that everyone was surprised why Yun Ju'an appeared in such an occasion, and Yun Ju'an even caught a glimpse of Emperor Yuan's somewhat displeased look.

Obviously, in Emperor Yuan's mind, this matter was a family affair and was not suitable for outsiders to know.

"Your Majesty, don't frown." Concubine Su said in a cold voice, "I called the princess here because of the Wuxixiang case. The princess is also a victim."

"Although she is young, she deserves to hear the truth."

Seeing this from his own concubine, Emperor Yuan could only smile awkwardly: "Don't mind, my concubine. I know it well. Please grant me the throne."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Zhuan bowed and took a seat.

I heard that Emperor Yuan once fell in love with Concubine Su Guifei. After all, who could not love such a cold and beautiful woman?

Moreover, she and her child could not stay, and Emperor Yuan did not dare to go to Huaqing Palace in these years, for fear of reminding Concubine Su of her sorrow.

Emperor Yuan knew in his heart how much Concubine Su attached importance to the matter of children!

Concubine Su had Cui Xin present all the evidence one by one: "Your Majesty should know that I was healthy when I was young, but I miscarried for no reason."

"This dress was sent to me by someone from the Sanshi Bureau, but the lining of this dress was washed with musk mixed with other spices, so there is no musk smell at all. I originally had several pieces, but for some reason, they were all burned after I gave birth. This dress was found in Concubine Zhen's wardrobe."

This dress is the color that Concubine Su Gui has always liked, sky blue mixed with elegant crescent white, it is full of luster and is made of the finest flowing brocade.

The top was also plain, with few decorations, and the waist was relatively loose. It was said that Concubine Su almost wore this dress as pajamas.

Yun Zhuan lowered his head.

Yangde Palace was clean and mostly staffed by Emperor Yuan and Empress Yuan.

There are also many flowers and plants planted everywhere, but they are suppressed by the aura of the palace and look a little listless, without any trace of their former vitality.

Presumably Zhen Fei was a proud enough person. The criminals involved liked to linger at the scene of the incident again and again, admiring their every move and making sure that they had committed a perfect crime without anyone noticing.

"I got pregnant in February, and Concubine Zhen got pregnant in June of the same year. So can I assume that it was Concubine Zhen who manipulated the people in the Three Affairs Bureau and used someone else to kill my child?" Concubine Su raised her voice.

There was a hint of grievance in those cold and beautiful eyes.

Emperor Yuan hesitated for a moment, then looked at Concubine Zhen with an increasingly cold gaze and asked, "What did Concubine Zhen say?"

“Your Majesty, I just thought your dress was beautiful, so I ordered the Sanshi Bureau to make another one. After I learned that your sister had lost her child, I didn’t dare to wear it as soon as I finished it…” Concubine Zhen was very clever and turned this dress into her own property.

After all, this was found in my own closet, so I can't just listen to Concubine Su's one-sided story.

"Besides, how could I possibly have my own people in the Sanshi Bureau? The Sanshi Bureau is full of people appointed by His Majesty!" Concubine Zhen's eyes turned, wanting to borrow Emperor Yuan's hand to suppress Concubine Su Gui's momentum, "Sister, please don't be disrespectful when you speak and hurt His Majesty's feelings."

Concubine Su ignored him and said, "This dress has the unique scent of borneol mixed with mugwort in this palace. Because it is famous, it will not fade for many years."

"Zhang Wuyan." The Yuan Emperor held a string of tourmaline beads in his hand, with a bright yellow tassel at the bottom. He pointed directly at the dress made of flowing brocade and said, "Judge it carefully for me!"

Zhang Yuanzheng immediately picked up the thing and sniffed it carefully: "It is indeed the smell of borneol and mugwort, but it is also mixed with the best musk, and the two kinds of incense, turmeric and sophora japonica, are blended together to cover up the strong smell of the musk itself."

"Besides, Duheng itself is a slightly toxic spice..."

Emperor Yuan's face darkened: "Concubine Su, do you have any other physical evidence?"

"In addition to this dress, we also found out that Xiaoyuan had a friend who worked as a eunuch in the Sanshi Bureau. I have already asked people and found out that it was Concubine Zhen who used Xiaoyuan to threaten Xiaosongzi, so she dared to take action in the Sanshi Bureau." Concubine Su Gui was calm and said, "Bring Xiaosongzi up!"

Xiao Songzi's position itself is not very high, but because he is responsible for the decomposition and sorting of fabric spices, the daily work is not too much, so it is still easy.

"I am Xiao Songzi, your servant. I have met your Majesty and all the ladies..."

Yun Zhuan could clearly see from below that Concubine Zhen's expression had slightly changed. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Concubine Su Gui:

"Besides this little Songzi, we also have Shuoxue and Mengxue here. I believe that the little girl Jiuxue beside Sister Zhenfei must be acquainted with her!"

New snow, tired snow, old snow.

Everyone present can see some problems with these three snow-covered ones, right?

The Yunzhu'an Mountain was calm and peaceful. Shuoxue didn't hold out for many days after all. And if he was imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment, I'm afraid Concubine Zhen would find a way to rescue him.

Concubine Su was really cautious. Today, all the concubines gathered together, and Emperor Yuan and Empress Yuan were both sitting in the high hall.

The original intention was to hit Zhenfei with one strike.

Yun Zhuan smiled slightly in the invisible shadows, relaxing himself and lowering his presence.

Concubine Zhen can't escape from what happened today.

"The order for the Wuxi Grass to be placed in Huaqing Palace was issued by Concubine Zhen, who threatened Ayuan's family. However, Ayuan did the job, but was still silenced by Concubine Zhen and died. Ayuan was also very cautious in his actions. The amount he placed on me was very small and would not have any impact on me."

Concubine Su stood up and stepped forward, grabbing Shuoxue's chin with a fierce look on her face:

"But as a loyal servant of Concubine Zhen, this little girl had no choice but to show up. Seeing that I was fine, she took over the matter!"

Zhen Fei can't get off the horse for the time being, and the next chapter is expected to be high-energy
