"Please come in, Concubine Shen." Eunuch Fu's face was serious, and he kept silent.
Concubine Shen had already received the news that the emperor was investigating why the queen fell off the phoenix chariot, but she didn't expect that the investigation would lead to her!
She had clearly made perfect preparations, so why would...
What went wrong?
Fortunately, the queen gave birth safely and gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, which symbolized good luck!
When Concubine Shen thought that she was the emperor's savior, her panicked heart quickly calmed down and she headed towards Kunning Palace.
It only took a moment and arrived soon.
Concubine Shen looked at the majestic and luxurious Kunning Palace in front of her, and a trace of jealousy flashed in her heart. It was obvious that all of this should belong to her, Shen Zhu.
But she seemed to be walking on the wrong path, getting closer and closer to the abyss.
At this point, she could only bite the bullet and continue on.
Concubine Shen stepped over the threshold and saw the emperor and empress sitting on the main seats. She bowed gracefully with a soft voice.
"I greet your Majesty and the Empress."
"Kneel down!" The emperor had a cold face, his voice full of anger and majesty, "Concubine Shen! You are so bold! How dare you harm the queen and my child!"
Concubine Shen was so frightened that her whole body trembled. She suddenly knelt on the ground, struggling to death, her eyes blurred with tears, and she looked pitiful and confused.
"Your Majesty, I don't understand what you are saying. How dare I?"
Eunuch Fu directly pulled Xia Liu up and said, "Madam Concubine, Xia Liu has confessed that it was you who ordered this."
Concubine Shen was surprised and looked at the Queen. It was obvious that she had instructed another palace maid to contact Xia Liu. The Queen must have done something about it!
The emperor glanced at Concubine Shen with a cold expression, "Concubine Shen, what else do you have to say?"
Concubine Shen looked at the emperor, whose eyes were full of indifference and ruthlessness. The gentleness and tenderness of the past were no longer there. It seemed as if there was a big hole in her chest, with cold wind and ice and snow pouring in. She was extremely cold.
Only then did she realize that His Majesty was no longer her Majesty.
Concubine Shen lowered her head, as if her heart had died, "...I have nothing to say."
The emperor's voice was extremely cold, without any fluctuations. "Propagate my decree. Concubine Shen is cruel and ruthless, disrespecting the empress, and plotting to murder the imperial heir. She is sentenced to death!"
Concubine Shen looked up at the emperor in disbelief. He had clearly said that she was the kindest and gentlest woman he had ever met. Now, in his eyes, was she a vicious woman?
She couldn't believe that the emperor had killed her despite the grace of saving her life.
Eunuch Fu sighed inwardly but did not show it on his face.
Concubine Shen suddenly raised her head and burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face like pearls that had broken off the string, her expression extremely crazy.
"Your Majesty is so impatient to let me die, are you afraid that I will tell the Queen the truth?"
Concubine Shen was no longer afraid of death. She stared at the queen, her eyes full of cruelty and madness. "Queen, I know you have guessed that it was me who killed the little prince. If it weren't for Your Majesty's permission, how would Concubine Xu and I dare to do it?!"
The atmosphere suddenly became silent for a moment.
The emperor's face was full of sullenness. He suddenly raised his foot and kicked Concubine Shen, feeling somewhat angry and humiliated.
"Shut up!"
"Someone, come here! Hurry up and take him away!"
Eunuch Fu did not dare to delay any longer, and quickly covered Concubine Shen's mouth and dragged her away.
"Your Majesty, is what Concubine Shen said true?"
The Queen's voice trembled to the extreme.
