Who exactly harmed Concubine Zhuang?
She was full of doubts, but she reacted quickly and kowtowed:
"Thank you for your kindness, Her Majesty the Queen Mother! My Lady Xue was suddenly sent to the cold palace, and I am so worried and don't know what to do... I am honored that Her Majesty the Queen Mother is willing to take care of me! I will do my best to do the work for Her Majesty the Queen Mother!"
Empress Dowager Xue looked kind, encouraged Wei Yingya a few more words, and then let her go.
After she leaves.
Liu Zhen hesitated and asked, "Madam, can this person be trusted?"
"We'll know if she betrays Ning Wanyin." A hint of coldness flashed in Empress Dowager Xue's eyes.
Ning Wanyin asked the emperor to investigate, and immediately found the Soul-Separation Incense.
And one hour before the emperor returned to the palace.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has just delivered charcoal to each palace.
Adding all these together, Empress Dowager Xue guessed that it was most likely Ning Wanyin who did it.
Suspicion is just suspicion. If you want to be sure, you need some verification.
If Wei Yingya hadn't covered up for Ning Wanyin, it would have been somewhat believable.
On the contrary, this person... has big problems.
"Your Majesty means... it was Ning Wanyin who put the Soul-Separation Incense in Qionghua Garden? And she was also the daughter of the Wang family..." Liu Zhen suddenly realized.
Queen Mother Xue shook her head. "It doesn't look like the work of Wang's daughter."
After all, this happened four years ago. Ning Wanyin was a newcomer to the palace and probably had never heard of Wang Shiqi...
Furthermore, Ms. Wang came to Zijin Mountain half a year ago.
Before that, it would take some time to find the relatives of the king's concubine and bribe this person to work for him.
A rough calculation shows that this plan will take at least a year to prepare.
At that time, Ning Wanyin had not yet entered the palace.
She might not even be chosen at that time, so why would she prepare to deal with Concubine Zhuang in advance?
Queen Mother Xue already had a suspect in her mind.
As for the emperor's suspicion of Xue Jinyan...
If the Wang family girl had always been a member of the Xue family, then Xue Jinyan could use her at any time if she wanted to make a move, without having to go through so much trouble like others.
