Chapter 55 Someone has to take the blame

The Queen Mother looked anxious and immediately called out, "Shanhe, Shanhe, wake up, wake up quickly."

After the queen found out what happened, she was so angry that she almost died. The outstanding son whom she had brought up with great difficulty had actually caused such a big mistake.

If the crown prince was deposed because of this incident, she would really want to kill her son.

Jun Xianhe slowly opened his eyes and saw a row of people beside the bed. The one in the front was his mother, the current Empress Zhao Yanran.

Behind them were nervous looking old doctors.

Jun Xianhe felt pain all over his body and his head was dizzy, but he quickly remembered everything.

"Mother, what's wrong with me? Cough cough." Jun Xianhe shook his head and spoke in a dry voice with a sore throat.

The servant quickly brought him some water and gave him a sip.

"Xianhe, you don't remember anything?" the Queen asked immediately.

The prince recalled slowly, "I only remember that I rested in the small courtyard on the lake island, drank some wine, and had a meal. I don't seem to remember anything after that."

Jun Xianhe looked unhappy. He felt very strange and wondered why he didn't remember it.

The imperial doctors looked at each other, not daring to speak.

"Xianhe, did you inhale the Five Poison Powder while eating?" The Queen Mother asked directly.

"Mother, what are you talking about? How could I possibly take the Five Poison Powder!" The prince was stunned and shocked. He knew very well that the Five Poison Powder was a banned substance. If the prince touched it, his future would be ruined.

"You really didn't take it? Where are your guards? Has anyone taken the Five Poison Powder?"

"No, mother, how is it possible! I am the crown prince, how dare I touch the Five Poison Powder! If my people dared to touch this thing, they would have died long ago. Mother, what is going on?"

"You and your guards took an overdose of the Five Poison Powder and then killed each other. Thirteen people died, and only you and Xiao Nan survived."

Xiao Nan is the prince's confidant.

"How could this happen?" Jun Xianhe showed an expression of extreme shock and fear, "We didn't take the Five Poison Powder, mother, we really didn't!"

The Queen said in a depressed tone, "No matter whether you took it yourself or were harmed, this matter has been exposed. Your father was so angry that he almost killed you on the spot."

"Ah!" Jun Xianhe's heart almost stopped beating. "No, I was wrongly accused. Someone must have given me the Five Poison Powder!"

The Queen sighed and said, "Actually, my mother thinks so too, but right now the Ministry of Justice can't find any clues to frame you."

Jun Xianhe was so angry that he started coughing. The wounds on his body were all open and he gasped in pain.

"How is Xiao Nan..." Jun Xianhe asked.

"It was right next door. He said the guards drank water and ate rice at the time, so the Five Poison Powder must have been put in these two things."

The prince calmed down and nodded, "Yes, there are many dishes for lunch, but not everyone likes to eat the same dishes. But everyone drinks water and eats rice, so everyone is affected."

"By the way, Xiao Nan said that he saw the second daughter of the Mo family, Mo Huaiqing, and her maid coming in. However, you were already killing people at that time. Mo Huaiqing's maid was killed on the spot by the guards, and Mo Huaiqing escaped because Xiao Nan still had some sense and knocked her unconscious."

"Mo Huaiqing?" Jun Xianhe narrowed his eyes. "What did she come here for? I didn't call her."

"Also, something big happened with Zhang Fengyi!" The queen repeated the story of Zhang Fengyi.

"Mo Yunzhu! It must be Mo Yunzhu!" The prince immediately said angrily, "Zhang Fengyi and Mo Yunzhu have had conflicts from the beginning, and Zhang Fengyi wants me to help him vent his anger."

"Yun Zhu?" The Queen frowned, "How is that possible?"

"Mother, you don't know, Mo Yunzhu has completely changed. Yesterday, her talent was many times better than anyone else's. Before, she could only write doggerel."

The Queen obviously didn't know about this and didn't quite believe it after hearing it. She asked the Prince to rest while she sent someone to find out the news.

When the queen came back after knowing everything, she said to the prince, "Shanhe, do you think Mo Yunzhu was too upset and teamed up with Prince Lan to frame you?"

"He probably won't frame me. After all, there is no possibility for my fifth brother to compete with me. Now that we have a good relationship, he should curry favor with me. Otherwise, why would he give me the Heart-Protecting Pill?" The prince was still a little grateful to Jun Huolan for this.

"Mo Yunzhu must have resentment towards me, but we were an engaged couple before, so she wouldn't be so cruel to me. I'm afraid there must be someone else who poisoned me. Mother, no matter who this person is, whether we can find him or not, the most urgent thing is to find someone to take the blame immediately, otherwise my father will definitely abolish me."

Jun Xianhe felt that Mo Yunzhu must still have feelings for him in her heart.

"What do you think of Mo Huaiqing? She is the only one who can take the blame now." The queen had actually thought of this trick a long time ago.

Jun Xianhe nodded immediately and said, "My mother and I agree that she is the daughter of General Mo, so it's a bit difficult to deal with her. Moreover, if something happens to Mo Huaiqing, the General's Mansion will definitely not be ours anymore."

"After Mo Yunzhu married Prince Lan, do you think the Mo family will still support you? Mo Huaiqing has never been as favored as Mo Yunzhu." The Queen said, "Alas, Mo Yunzhu was originally such a good Crown Princess, how could she be framed and be with Prince Lan."

The queen was furious at the thought that such a good marriage had been ruined.

Jun Xianhe felt even more depressed, but he didn't dare to say that it was Mo Huaiqing who did it.

"You and Xiao Nan should collude. This matter must not be your fault, otherwise you will definitely be deposed from the position of crown prince." The queen stared at Jun Xianhe with her eyes as sharp as swords.

"Mother, there is actually something else that I haven't told you." Jun Xianhe felt that if he asked Mo Huaiqing to take the blame, she might reveal their relationship.

"Please explain it clearly." The queen frowned.

Jun Xianhe could only tell this story awkwardly. The queen was so angry that her chest heaved, but looking at her son who was already covered in scars, she could only resist the urge to kill this stupid son.

"Then you can't go out to see her. Let your mother take care of this matter." The queen narrowed her eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"Thank you, mother." Jun Xianhe said quickly, "But what happened to Zhang Fengyi must have been done by Mo Yunzhu."

"The Ministry of Justice is already investigating. Let's wait and see what happens. But no matter what, Zhang Fengyi is already dead. Don't associate with him in the future, lest they say you have that kind of dirty hobby. You can't make the same mistake over and over again."

"I understand, son." Jun Xianhe was in no mood to care about Zhang Fengyi's affairs. Although he was sure that Zhang Fengyi was framed, he was not in danger himself, so of course he could not care about a dog.
