Chapter 51: Suffering the consequences



Lu Yanluo raised her eyebrows but didn't move.

"Search me!" the queen shouted angrily.

Chu Xuan was about to stand up to stop them, but he unexpectedly heard Lu Yanluo's inner voice:

[I think you haven't watched enough of Legend of Zhen Huan. I have already replaced the poison you gave me with air.]

[Hey, come on! Search me! I’ll slap you in the face!]

"..." Chu Xuan, who had just stood up halfway, was speechless for a moment and sat back down.

It seems like he is in control of everything.

Yan Xiwan saw this and chuckled, "Cousin, the princess actually poisoned Concubine Lin. If this harms you, what should I do?"

“…”

Chu Xuan looked at her with disdain: "Xi Wan, if you can't speak, don't speak."

Yan Xiwan curled her lips, not knowing how she had made Chu Xuan unhappy, and she shut up.

Sure enough, the maids around the queen rushed forward and found a purse on Lu Yanluo's body a moment later.

"My lady."

The maid handed the purse to the queen, and a hint of pride flashed in the queen's eyes. She threw the purse at Lu Yanluo's feet and said, "Princess Ye, what's your explanation?"

Although it was a bit too hasty to question Lu Yanluo at this time.

But she was the one who gave the poison, and she also saw with her own eyes that Lu Yanluo put the poison into Concubine Lin's wine glass, so even if she was a little anxious, after the emperor saw Lu Yanluo's heinous crime, he would not care about these details at all!

The emperor looked at Lu Yanluo with a gloomy expression and said coldly, "Yes, Princess Ye, why did you poison Concubine Lin? How can you explain it?"

Lu Yanluo snorted coldly: "Why should I explain?"

Before the Queen could say anything to make things difficult, Lu Yanluo opened her purse and pretended to pour out the money.

There's nothing inside.

"If your Majesty is worried, you may ask the imperial physician to check whether there is any poison in my purse. I believe that if there is poison, there will be no trace of it."

Queen Jiang's eyes widened with anger, and her hands were shaking as she pointed at Lu Yanluo: "Lu Yanluo! How dare you!"

"Why not?"

Concubine Lin's voice came from behind. She walked over slowly, glared at the Queen first, then knelt weakly on the table, choking with sobs: "Your Majesty, please make the decision for the Queen! If it weren't for Princess Ye discovering the Queen's plot to kill me and reminding me, I would not have thought of pretending to be sick and letting the Queen reveal her true colors!"

The corner of Lu Yanluo's mouth twitched.

[Sure enough, a person who has been favored by the emperor for many years and is the most favored person in the six palaces can decide the fate of the world with just his words.]

Chu Xuan didn't comment upon hearing this, and calmly poured himself a glass of wine.

Then he quickly interrupted what Yan Xiwan was about to say: "Don't talk!"

Yan Xiwan: “…”

During the banquet, the queen was still struggling: "Your Majesty! It was...it was Princess Ye who harmed me!"

"Enough!" The Queen Mother, who was sitting at the head of the table, suddenly stood up and slammed the table. "Empress! You have not been favored by the emperor these years, and you have done a lot of dirty things. I have turned a blind eye to it. Today, you even want to kill Yanluo. How can I tolerate this? Emperor! The Queen has violated her morals, and she must be dealt with properly!"

The emperor narrowed his eyes. He had thought that the queen looked as attractive as she did in her youth, which really made his heart flutter for a few days. But why was this woman still so insatiable?

He looked at Queen Jiang coldly for a while, then slowly said, "Queen Jiang is immoral and jealous, and is unworthy of being the mother of a country. From today on, I will depose her and announce it to the world!"

"No..." Jiang had tears in her eyes. She had no protection from her maternal family and had a hard time making ends meet in the palace over the years. Even the prince she gave birth to did not receive any honor or favor, even though he was named the crown prince.

Now it is even easier to abolish...

"Lu Yanluo!" Jiang was taken away and passed by Lu Yanluo.

But she was glared at by Lu Yanluo, who leaned close to her ear and whispered, "You want me to see who the real master is, right? Now you see it, but the result is - you lose."
