"Who is it?" the imperial concubine asked coldly.

Sun Da immediately told the truth: "In fact, I don't know who that person is. He gave me 10,000 taels and asked me to give her the medicine, and then give me another 10,000 taels after the job was done."

The imperial concubine was so angry that her face turned pale: "Asshole, you actually want to kill the little prince that I fought so hard to give birth to just for ten thousand taels, you beast!"

"Your Highness, please calm down. You are still in confinement and should not get angry. Otherwise, your breasts will swell and your anus will be blocked, which will be very painful." Ye Xingchen comforted.

The imperial concubine then put away her anger: "You are right, I cannot be angry."

"Have you seen what that person looks like?" Ye Xingchen looked at Sun Da and asked.

Sun Da nodded: "Although it was a little dark at the time, I still saw his appearance clearly."

"Come, call the painter!" the emperor ordered.

"yes."

Soon, the guards brought the painter in, and the painter bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty."

"Get up and draw it as he says," the emperor ordered.

"yes."

Sun Da immediately started describing it, and the painter quickly started drawing.

As the outline of a face appeared, the imperial concubine hurried over to take a look.

"Why does this person look familiar, but I can't remember where he is?" The imperial concubine frowned.

The emperor took a look and said, "I also feel that it is somewhat familiar."

Ye Xingchen came over and covered the mole and beard on the man's face with his hand: "Isn't this Gu Jiu who is beside King Mo?"

The imperial concubine took one look and said, "It is indeed him. It is Prince Mo who wants to harm my child. Your Majesty, please make a decision for me and the little prince."

The emperor's face darkened instantly. He never expected that it was Prince Mo's subordinate.

"I heard that Prince Mo has been visiting the palace frequently recently. Could it be that he is jealous because he saw that the imperial concubine gave birth to a child?" Ye Xingchen asked in surprise.

This was a clever question. She did not directly say that it was Concubine Xuan who ordered it, but only specifically mentioned Prince Mo to enter the palace. Anyone with a discerning eye would immediately think of Concubine Xuan.

As expected, the imperial concubine immediately thought of Concubine Xuan: "It must be Concubine Xuan. She must have instructed Prince Mo to say this. No wonder Prince Mo has been going to the palace cold recently. She must be afraid that I will give birth to a son and threaten Prince Mo."

The emperor's expression was extremely cold and stern: "Shut up, don't make a hasty decision without evidence."

The imperial concubine was immediately furious: "Your Majesty, I have been in the palace for many years but have not gotten pregnant. I had a difficult birth and almost died. This is the child I risked my life for. Whoever dares to harm my child, I will fight him to the death, even if it means giving up everything I have!"

The voice was angry and resentful, full of determination.

The emperor naturally understood the concubine's temper and knew that she would not care about the consequences if she took action.

The emperor had originally been somewhat in the wrong for choosing to save the young one, and since this matter concerned Prince Mo and Concubine Xuan, the emperor would naturally not ignore it.

"The little prince is my son. I will never condone anyone who dares to murder the prince. Imperial Concubine, you have just given birth, so you should not be angry. Don't worry about this matter. I will definitely give you an explanation!" the emperor promised.

If it were in the past, the imperial concubine would still believe it, but since the emperor gave up on her and chose to protect the young one, how could the imperial concubine believe him?

"Then please Your Majesty, capture Gu Jiu and Prince Mo and let me see how you can give me justice." The imperial concubine snorted coldly.

"Come here, bring Gu Jiu and Prince Mo to me!" the emperor ordered.

"yes."

Prince Mo was still waiting for news in the palace, but what he got was the Imperial Guards.

"By order of His Majesty, arrest Gu Jiu and invite Prince Mo to the palace!" said the commander of the Imperial Guards.

Dozens of imperial guards rushed in and immediately arrested Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu did not react. He had guessed it from the moment they came in.

He went there in disguise, but unexpectedly he was still recognized.

King Mo's face turned cold, "Why are you doing this? How dare you detain my guards?"

"Prince Mo, please calm down. This is the order of His Majesty. Please go ahead." The commander of the Imperial Guards did not give any face at all.

Prince Mo's expression was extremely grim. Could it be that the wet nurse's affair was exposed?

"Your Highness, I'm fine. Since they are following orders, I will follow them." Gu Jiu advised.

Cang Tingchen's expression finally eased: "I want to see how you guys are doing."

When Prince Mo and Gu Jiu entered the palace and saw the emperor, they immediately saluted.

"Gu Jiu, did you give Sun Da the ointment to poison my little prince? Did Prince Mo instruct you?" the imperial concubine asked coldly.

Prince Mo's face froze, his father really knew about it.

He can't panic, he must stay calm.

"My dear concubine, what do you mean? I don't understand." Prince Mo replied coldly.

"Prince Mo, Sun Dahe and the wet nurse confessed everything. It was your subordinate Gu Jiu who bribed him to poison my little prince.

Did Concubine Xuan instruct you? How could a man like you come up with such a vicious method? "The imperial concubine's voice became sharp.

Prince Mo was obviously feeling guilty, after all, it was indeed him who ordered it, but he could never admit it.

"Noble Concubine, I know that you and my mother have been at odds for years, but you can't frame my mother like this. My mother has been in the cold palace and she doesn't even know that you gave birth to a son. How could she order me around?" Prince Mo asked back.

"Didn't you go to the cold palace to deliver the message? Do you dare to swear to heaven that you didn't tell the concubine about what happened outside?" the imperial concubine pressed.

"I just went to show my concern for my mother and didn't say any of that." Prince Mo refused to admit it.

Seeing that the two men were about to deviate, Ye Xingchen immediately spoke up: "Sun Da, did he bribe you?"

"It was him. He was the one who gave me ten thousand taels." Sun Da pointed.

"You've heard it all, Gu Jiu, do you still want to quibble?" The imperial concubine glared at Gu Jiu.

"Gu Jiu, tell the truth!" the emperor snorted coldly.

Gu Jiu glanced at Cang Tingchen and said, "I did it. No one ordered me to do it. I just saw that the imperial concubine was favored and was afraid that her son would threaten Prince Mo's position in the future."

"You're talking nonsense. How could a mere guard like you get the courage?" The imperial concubine came over angrily.

"I wonder if King Mo knows about this?" Ye Xingchen asked.

Cang Tingchen glared at Ye Xingchen and said, "Why are you indispensable everywhere? You are just angry that I divorced you, so you deliberately misled the concubine to misunderstand me."

Ye Xingchen sneered: "Prince Mo deliberately changed the subject, is that interesting? Please answer me directly, do you know that Gu Jiu harmed the little prince of the imperial concubine?"

Prince Mo's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川) character. Gu Jiu was his confidant, and it looked like Gu Jiu would be killed today.

Seeing King Mo hesitate, Gu Jiu said calmly, "Your Majesty, I did this without telling you. You didn't know anything about it. You don't have to worry about me. I have already thought of the consequences. Just tell me the truth."

King Mo looked solemn, and finally said: "This matter, I am not aware of it."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief: "Since Prince Mo didn't know about this, it was Gu Jiu who did it. He killed the heir to the throne, and his crime is extremely heinous. His property should be confiscated and he should be executed. Gu Jiu should be torn into pieces!"

"Yes." The Royal Guards were about to come in to arrest the person.

Ye Xingchen said, "Your Majesty, I just recently developed a new talisman that can make people tell the truth. I wonder if Your Majesty would like to try it?"
