Search the palace?
After seeing the Imperial Guards appearing behind His Majesty, Concubine Rong realized that His Majesty was serious.
His Majesty actually brought people to search the palace?
Thinking of the scene in the room, Rong Fei's expression changed drastically.
If she lets these people in, then the things in her house...
Rong Fei's face was grim: "Your Highness..." Rong Fei wanted to step forward and beg His Majesty, but just as she stepped forward, the Imperial Guard who rushed forward drew the sword from his waist.
The scimitar flashed with a cold light, and the moment it was pulled out, Rong Fei was so frightened that she stopped where she was.
"Your Highness." Rong Fei stood there with a miserable look on her face, her face full of coldness.
She looked so guilty.
Rong Fei's heart was beating fast and she looked at the Empress Dowager beside her for help.
Strangely enough, the Queen Mother was unusually calm.
Faced with the guards' intrusion, the Queen Mother did not say a word to stop them.
But: "Since Your Majesty wants to search the palace, you should at least give a reason."
"Empress Rong is also a legitimate concubine. Your Majesty would not give her the slightest bit of face and directly order a search."
The Queen Mother is quite magnanimous.
Chen Fu looked at the Empress Dowager in front of her and really couldn't help but admire her.
She didn't know the body was inside.
The guards were all blocking the door, but the empress dowager remained calm as if facing Mount Tai.
Based on this confidence alone, one has to admit that the Queen Mother is truly worthy of being the Queen Mother.
Unfortunately, Shen Fu looked at Rong Fei beside the Queen Mother. She knew it from the moment she saw the Queen Mother and Concubine Rong standing together.
The Queen Mother abandoned Rong Qi and chose to stand on the side of Concubine Rong.
"Queen, we are just investigating thoroughly." His Majesty did not give in: "If there is nothing in this room, why would you be afraid of an investigation?"
The Queen Mother actually laughed and said, "If there is nothing in the room, can the Emperor return Rong Fei to Qingyi?"
"Of course." Xiao Yu looked at Concubine Rong.
Although he came here only because he believed Chen Fu's words.
But Rong Fei's expression also said it all.
Although the Queen Mother felt that Rong Fei's expression was a little too worried, she had been in the harem for many years, so how could she not know that today's plan was the work of Shen Fu?
The Queen Mother said, her eyes fixed on Shen Fu who was standing behind His Majesty: "Or is this all done to frame Concubine Rong, and the Emperor is clearing the way for your beloved concubine?"
Shen Fu didn't expect that the Queen Mother's conflict could actually involve herself.
As expected, she is someone who has worked her way up in the harem. She can easily turn the matter upside down with just one sentence.
If the Royal Guards cannot find the body after entering.
It is equivalent to admitting that he was the one who instigated today's incident.
The responsibility lies entirely with oneself.
The Queen Mother's trick of diverting trouble to others was well-thought-out.
Shen Fu lowered her eyes and stopped talking. As long as His Majesty is here, He will definitely protect me.
She naturally didn't need to explain too much.
His Majesty glanced at Chen Fu gently, but said: "I want to investigate this matter, how does it relate to Concubine Zhao's affairs?"
His Majesty did not continue to explain, but glanced behind him.
The Royal Guards ignored the obstruction and immediately followed into the house.
Concubine Rong watched the guards enter the room. No matter how anxious she was, she had to swallow her doubts bit by bit.
She stood there with a miserable look on her face, hoping that the servants around the Queen Mother would hide Rong Qi.
I pray that these guards will not be found.
Seeing that all the guards had entered the house, everyone moved to the main hall and waited.
Rong Fei looked at His Majesty and the Empress Dowager sitting in the main seats in front of her, and her heart began to relax a little.
Such a long time has passed, and I don't know if those guards can find Rong Qi's body.
Rong Fei was really frightened, but she raised her head and looked at the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager's expression showed no sign of sadness at all, even though Rong Fei had a thousand things to say in her heart. But seeing the Queen Mother's steady and calm appearance, Rong Fei had to remain silent.
The guards had been waiting for a long time, but there was no movement.
Although Rong Fei became more and more anxious as she waited, she gradually calmed down after seeing the Empress Dowager's expression.
She held the teacup in her hand and even had the intention to glance at Chen Fu beside her.
On the main seat, His Majesty and others were far away. While holding the teacup, Concubine Rong looked at Chen Fu.
"Is it you?" In the entire harem, besides Chen Fu, who else would do such a thing?
Who else dares to be her enemy?
It is possible to invite His Majesty at this time. Except Chen Fu, there is no other person in the entire harem.
Rong Fei turned her face to the side, and the viciousness in her eyes made people feel cold in their hearts.
Chen Fu faced Rong Fei's eyes, turned her head and looked at Rong Fei: "What are you talking about, Rong Fei? I don't understand."
Rong Fei gnashed her teeth in anger when she saw Chen Fu's expression.
But since His Majesty was here, she had to endure it: "Just wait."
With the Queen Mother's protection, I will definitely be able to escape safely today!
Concubine Rong raised the teacup in her hand and looked at the empress dowager in front of her whose expression did not change at all.
As long as the Queen Mother is here, I will be safe today.
Rong Fei calmed down and took a sip of tea when the guards who were searching came in and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"Have you found out anything?" Sitting on the main seat, Xiao Yu fumbled with the Buddhist beads on his wrist and looked down with his eyes slightly lowered.
The imperial guards knelt on the ground and saluted: "We have searched Ronghua Palace from top to bottom, but have not found any body."
After the words were spoken, there was silence all around.
His Majesty glanced at Chen Fu, who was sitting below him, and then at the guard on the ground: "Have you checked everything?"
His Majesty spoke, and the guards continued to answer: "We have checked everything."
"The servants have searched carefully from top to bottom, and indeed found nothing."
The guards' words were like a stabilizing force, and Rong Fei's already uneasy heart gradually calmed down.
She said, the Queen Mother will definitely protect her!
"Your Majesty, I am innocent, Your Majesty." Xiao Yu had just waved his hand to let the guards leave when Concubine Rong stepped forward and knelt in front of Your Majesty, begging.
"I don't know who has wronged me, saying that I killed my own sister." Rong Fei's heart, which had just been uneasy, became proud in an instant.
She said that the Queen Mother would definitely find a way.
"This person really has bad intentions." Rong Fei said, raising her hand to wipe her tears: "He is trying to sow discord between me and you."
He glanced at Shen Fu beside him, the implication was too obvious.
Chen Fu was being stared at by Concubine Rong, but she was still able to keep her composure.
