Jun Zechen gently held Su Jingyao in his arms and lay on the couch in the warm room.
Su Jingyao looked nonchalant and asked leisurely, "Your Majesty, do you know who murdered me?"
Su Jingyao couldn't believe that three days had passed and Jun Zechen hadn't found out anything.
He even came to Kunning Palace specially to examine and question the concubines in front of her.
"What do you think, Yaoyao?"
Jun Zechen stroked Su Jingyao's soft little hand, with a meaningful look in his eyes.
However, Su Jingyao didn't want to spoil him at this moment, perhaps because she had a bad temper during pregnancy.
If he finds out, just tell him directly. Why pretend to be so profound in front of her?
"I think it's Your Majesty." Su Jingyao said calmly.
When Jun Zechen heard this, his face instantly darkened.
He slowly lifted Su Jingyao's head, and stared at her with his deep eyes.
She said word by word: "Yaoyao is my sweetheart. I will never hurt Yaoyao even if I hurt anyone else."
Then, he said as if he was very hurt: "Yaoyao's misunderstanding of me is as painful as a sharp needle piercing my heart."
"I cannot guess what your majesty is thinking. The two concubines who are suspected are both your majesty's favorite concubines."
"One is an old favorite, and the other is a new favorite. No matter who it is, I just hope that Your Majesty can handle it impartially."
Let her guess everything, she is not a worm in his stomach!
What kind of person he is showing himself, doesn't he have any idea in his mind?
Jun Zechen gritted his teeth. He had never seen a woman who slandered him like this.
"I don't like either Concubine Lin or Concubine Shu." He said helplessly.
Su Jingyao's indifferent eyes met Jun Zechen's, and there was no trace of emotion in her eyes.
He said coldly: "Your Majesty does not like Concubine Lin, but Concubine Lin is the most favored among the concubines selected."
"Your Majesty doesn't like Concubine Shu, but he lets her stay in the Palace of Heavenly Purity every day."
"I....."
Jun Zechen frowned and was about to explain, but Su Jingyao didn't give him a chance to speak.
"Your Majesty, I don't care which concubine you favor. After all, there are so many beauties in the harem, and there will always be one who will catch your eye and make you like her."
Su Jingyao said this expressionlessly.
"It's just that Concubine Shu or Concubine Lin, no matter who tries to harm my child, I will never let them go easily."
"If Your Majesty has already found out, please inform me."
Jun Zechen knew in his heart that she no longer believed him.
In this situation, it would be useless to say anything more.
"It's Concubine Lin." He said in a deep voice.
Su Jingyao's face did not fully show belief.
"I hope that His Majesty is not deliberately protecting the new favorite and letting the old favorite take the blame."
When Jun Zechen heard her words, he almost couldn't suppress the grievance boiling in his heart.
She didn't trust him, so whatever he did was wrong in her eyes.
Before Jun Zechen could even try to defend himself, Fuquan, Miaoyue and Miaoxue walked in quickly.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the search has yielded results." Fuquan reported respectfully.
"Well, then let's go out." Jun Zechen said a little irritably.
When Jun Zechen and Su Jingyao returned to the hall, the concubines who were sitting and waiting for the results had more or less signs of fatigue on their faces.
After all, they have to sit there upright, and if they sit like this for a long time, they will feel tired.
Fuquan stood steadily beside His Majesty.
"Your Majesty, during this search, musk was found in the palaces of Concubine Lin and Concubine Shu."
When Concubine Lin heard this, her face was full of disbelief.
She had clearly instructed Yurong to properly dispose of the remaining musk, so why was musk still found in her palace?
But at this moment, Su Jingyao smiled at Lin Fei, and her smile was extremely gentle.
But Concubine Lin only felt a chill down her spine. Could it be the Queen?
Could it be that Yurong is the Queen’s person?
Lin Fei was already at a loss at this moment, with her hands tightly clasped together.
I tried my best to stay awake.
Is the Queen going to start dealing with her?
Could it be that it was the Queen who asked Yurong to instigate her from the very beginning?
The Queen did not use the evidence she had previously obtained against her, but instead used her to frame Concubine Shu, and then pretended to have almost had a miscarriage in order to regain the favor of His Majesty.
He even wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of her!
The Queen's plan is really deep.
But now musk has also been found in Concubine Shu's palace, and she is determined to put the entire blame on Concubine Shu.
Fuquan obviously also saw Concubine Lin's uncontrollable panic expression.
Then he continued, "Your Majesty, I have checked the people in the flower room. Most of the palace servants are just doing their own work every day and rarely pay attention to others."
"But the people in the flower room have seen Concubine Lin and Concubine Shu go to admire the chrysanthemums many times."
At this point, he paused, "But... the eunuch in charge of the flower room said that only Concubine Lin's maid inadvertently asked which chrysanthemum was to be sent to the queen..."
Lin Fei's face turned pale instantly, and she was so frightened that she jumped up from her chair.
Then she knelt down in the hall with a plop. Her body trembled slightly and she shouted in a crying voice.
"Your Majesty, Queen, I feel wronged. I really don't know which maid in my palace did this. Eunuch Fuquan, do you know who it is?"
