Chapter 506 What to do (Update 1)
Jiang Qingmei froze on the spot.
She couldn't say that it was all the eldest princess's doing. From any angle, she was the more likely one to have done it.
Can--
"I know about your majesty's old illness, but I really didn't do those things!"
Jiang Qingmei was angry and anxious.
"Why would I take such a risk!?"
Everyone looked at each other.
This...what she said seems to make sense.
Over the years, Jiang Qingmei has been favored by the Emperor, and Xiao Chengxuan is highly valued by His Majesty. As long as nothing goes wrong, that position will be his sooner or later.
Jiang Qingmei really had no good reason to do this.
But if it wasn't her, who could it be?
The eldest princess and Emperor Mu Wu were born of the same mother and had a deep friendship with her. She also held an extremely high status in the court, so it was impossible for her to do such a thing.
Chen Songshi pondered for a moment and said, "This is a serious matter. Let's ask Jiang Cairen to go back first. Once we find out the truth, everything will come out naturally."
Jiang Qingmei suddenly panicked.
"I didn't do it! What's there to check?"
Ye Chutang looked at her quietly, his eyes sweeping around her calmly.
Xiao Chenglin stood in the corner of the crowd, looking silent.
Chen Songshi knew that he couldn't continue to make such a fuss, so he just said, "If you haven't done it, what are you afraid of?"
"I--"
Jiang Qingmei was speechless and couldn't utter a word for a moment.
Ye Chutang retracted his gaze and lowered his eyelids slightly to hide the ripples in his eyes.
"Someone come!" Chen Songshi raised his hand, and the imperial guards immediately stepped forward, "Take her back! No one is allowed to visit her before the truth is found out!"
"yes!"
Jiang Qingmei became even more panicked and struggled frantically at first, but she was a woman in the deep palace and had just been ill. She was weak at this moment, so how could she be a match for these people?
After a while, she was taken away.
Only the court officials were left in a tense and strange atmosphere.
Chen Songshi thought for a moment and decided to hand the matter over to the Dali Temple, with the assistance of the Imperial Medical Bureau in the investigation.
Ye Chutang and Chu Qiyuan were of course among them.
After finishing all this, he repeatedly warned everyone not to spread what happened today, and then let everyone go.
——The most important thing at the moment is Emperor Mu Wu.
…
Side hall.
Chen Songshi and several cabinet ministers all looked worried.
When the eldest princess hurried in, this was the gloomy scene she saw.
"How is your majesty?"
Everyone spoke in a low voice, not knowing how to answer for a moment, so they all looked at Chen Songshi.
Chen Songshi sighed, "Miss Ye Er and the Crown Prince have already checked and said that His Majesty is no longer in danger of death, but it is hard to say when he will wake up."
The eldest princess rushed over immediately after hearing the news, and on the way she had already learned what had happened outside the palace.
After hearing this, I finally felt relieved.
It's always good to save your life anyway.
"Are they still with His Majesty?"
"Yes. You two will take turns to serve and look after me."
The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief.
She trusted Ye Chutang and Chu Qiyuan, so with them around, she didn't have to worry so much.
"That's good. That's good."
Chen Songshi raised his head and glanced at the eldest princess's face, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
The princess noticed something and asked, "Why do you look like that, Lord Wang? Just say what you want to say."
Chen Songshi paused.
"This... His Majesty is temporarily unconscious, so the affairs of the court can be carried out as before. But there is an important matter right now, which is a bit troublesome."
The princess asked, "What's the matter?"
Chen Songshi sighed.
"…Emissary Wazhen will arrive in the capital soon. What should we do if Your Majesty still hasn't woken up by then?"
