"Where did this come from?"
Luo Lan pointed to the ground and said, "There are so many mung beans right next to Princess Xi. Not to mention a pregnant woman like her, even an ordinary person would easily slip if they stepped on them."
Hearing this, Concubine Li screamed wildly,
"Your Majesty, someone must have deliberately wanted to harm Qiaoqiao. You must thoroughly investigate who did this."
