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 specifically to examine and question the concubines in front of her.
"What do you think, Yaoyao?"
Jun Zechen's hand caressed Su Jingyao's soft and boneless little hand, with a meaningful look in his eyes.
However, Su Jingyao didn't want to indulge 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 his deep eyes looked into hers.
She said word by word: "Yaoyao is my sweetheart. I will never hurt Yaoyao even if I hurt anyone else."
Then, as if he was very hurt, he said: "Yaoyao's misunderstanding of me is as painful as a sharp needle piercing my heart."
"I cannot guess your majesty's thoughts. 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 only hope that Your Majesty will handle it impartially."
He made her guess everything, she wasn't a worm in his stomach!
Doesn't he have any idea of what he is showing himself?
Jun Zechen gritted his teeth. He had never seen a woman slander 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, yet 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 this harem, and there will always be one who will catch your eye and please you."
Su Jingyao said this expressionlessly.
"Just Concubine Shu or Concubine Lin, no matter who it is who attempts 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, saying anything more will be of no use.
"It's Concubine Lin." He said in a deep voice.
Su Jingyao's face did not show complete 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 argue for himself, Fuquan and 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 main hall, the concubines who were sitting and waiting for the results all showed signs of fatigue to some extent on their faces.
After all, they have to sit there upright, and if they sit like this for a long time, they will eventually feel tired.
Fuquan stood steadily beside His Majesty.
"Your Majesty, musk was found in both Concubine Lin's and Concubine Shu's palaces during this search."
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 time, 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 the Queen 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 a near miscarriage in order to regain the favor of the 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 must put the entire blame on Concubine Shu.
Fuquan obviously also saw Lin Fei's uncontrollable panic expression.
He continued, "Your Majesty, I have examined the servants in the flower room. Most of them are just doing their own work every day and rarely pay attention to others."
"But those in the greenhouse have seen Concubine Lin and Concubine Shu go to admire the chrysanthemums many times."
He paused, "However... the eunuch in charge of the flower room said that only Concubine Lin's maid inadvertently asked which chrysanthemums were to be sent to the Queen..."
Lin Fei's face turned pale in an instant, and she was so scared that she jumped up from her chair.
Then she knelt down in the hall with a plop, her body trembling slightly, and she shouted in a crying voice.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am wronged. I really don't know which maid in my palace did this. Eunuch Fuquan, do you know who it was?"
