She knelt on the ground, grabbed the hem of His Majesty's clothes, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, there are witnesses and evidence, you can't protect Concubine Shen like this."
"Rui'er was so young, and she died so pitifully. If you let Concubine Shen go one day, I'm afraid Rui'er will die with regrets, Your Majesty."
Concubine Xiang stopped the servants and prevented them from going forward to take Cui'er away.
The scene was chaotic for a while.
Xiaoyu frowned slightly, endured it, and finally set his gaze on Chen Fu.
Chen Fu didn't explain at all, but just kept saying she didn't know. Even if Xiao Yu was biased towards her, he had to ask: "Chen Fu, explain it to me."
Shen Fu was not surprised at all to hear His Majesty's voice.
Your Majesty is the emperor, and with so many people watching, and this matter concerns the Third Prince, you would ask him about everything he says.
Shen Fu was surprised that His Majesty would speak to her at this time.
Based on her understanding of His Majesty, she thought that He would have asked her a long time ago.
Chen Fu's eyes flashed, and she knelt down after hearing the words of His Majesty.
She didn't explain, but instead grasped the point.
She raised her head and looked at His Majesty, with a hint of disbelief in her eyes: "Your Majesty, you don't trust me?"
Shen Fu's words left people speechless for a moment.
Xiao Yu closed his eyes: "It's not that I don't believe you."
This incident happened in the Hehuan Palace, and the life of the third prince was at stake.
If he didn't care about it, he would just be tolerant towards Chen Fu. It is inevitable that there will be other voices in the future.
What’s more…Xiao Yu’s gaze swept towards Cui’er.
Something flashed in his eyes: "Something appeared in your palace, I just want an explanation."
"After all, His Majesty still doubts me." Chen Fu looked extremely sad.
She turned her head away, tears in her eyes: "If Your Majesty believed in me, why would you come to ask me?"
She was in no hurry to clear herself of suspicion immediately.
Concubine Rong has not stepped forward yet, and she has only captured Cui'er. How can Chen Fu be willing to accept this?
She seemed to be deeply heartbroken by His Majesty, biting her lips tightly until there was no trace of blood on them: "I have done nothing, how can His Majesty ask me to explain?"
Her behavior is really a headache.
Even if Xiao Yu wanted to be partial, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and rub his eyebrows when he saw Chen Fu kneeling on the ground.
"Chen Fu, I..." His Majesty's tone was full of helplessness.
Concubine Rong looked at him with a gleam in her eyes.
She looked at Shen Fu's sad face and felt a little doubtful.
Shen Fu doesn't usually seem to be so brainless.
She pondered it over and over in her mind, and when she glanced at Shen Fu's tearful eyes, she felt a little more certain.
After all, she was spoiled by His Majesty.
Pampering makes you lose your mind.
Concubine Rong looked at Chen Fu's tearful face and gradually felt relieved.
"Your Highness." She glanced at Concubine Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground with a dull look on her face.
After pondering for a while, she finally said, "I have a solution, but I don't know if I should tell you."
Xiao Yu turned his head to look at her, and saw Concubine Rong lowering her eyes and saying, "Since the two parties are arguing, Concubine Shen said that she didn't do it, but the eyewitness is willing to come out to testify."
"I think, in order to clear Concubine Shen's name, why not search this Hehuan Palace?"
"Do you mean to search the palace?" Xiao Yu couldn't help it and looked at him with a frown.
It was not a good thing for this concubine to have her palace searched.
Regardless of whether the queen did it or not, once the news of the palace search gets out, this Hehuan Palace will definitely be the subject of gossip in the future.
This is not a good thing for Shen Fu or the Fifth Prince.
"Your Majesty has asked me to manage the harem, so I will naturally come out to give you advice." Concubine Rong said, "The only way for you is to search the palace to clear Concubine Shen's name."
"It not only gives an explanation to Concubine Xiang Guipin, but also silences the gossips of the people here."
After Rong Guifei finished speaking, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please order a search of the Hehuan Palace!"
