"Your Majesty's health has improved recently, and even if they harbor evil intentions, they would not choose this time."
After hearing Cang Xixue's words, Feng Guche was also puzzled.
These two people probably planned to poison me a long time ago, so why did they wait until now?
After thinking it over, Feng Guche finally looked towards Shen Biyun.
At this moment, Shen Biyun already sensed that danger lurked everywhere, so when she met the Emperor's gaze, she became even more flustered.
"Your Majesty, I have done nothing. Why are you looking at me like that?"
Feng Xilan noticed Shen Biyun's unease and spoke up to defend her.
"Father, the one who poisoned us could not have been Wu Hou..."
The emperor gave a cold laugh.
"It was the Empress who served me a few days ago that made my condition worse. According to the immortal master, I have been poisoned. And today the Empress has appeared here again, what a coincidence!"
"It was only after the Empress appeared that the ginseng soup became poisoned. Now you're telling me this has nothing to do with you?!"
Shen Biyun couldn't believe that the Emperor would suspect her.
"Your Majesty, we are of one heart and one mind, how could I possibly harm you?"
Before Feng Guche could speak, Cang Xixue suddenly said something.
"Perhaps, Her Majesty the Empress did this for the sake of the Crown Prince, since His Highness the Crown Prince has often displeased the Emperor lately."
Cang Xixue spoke very softly, but her voice was loud enough for Feng Guche to hear clearly.
Of course, Shen Biyun also heard it perfectly clearly.
Shen Biyun suddenly looked up, her eyes wide as she stared at Cang Xixue.
"Shut up! Cang Xixue, how dare you frame me!"
Shen Biyun was extremely angry, and her whole body was trembling.
After she said that, the hair ornaments on Shen Biyun's head began to shake violently.
The emperor was furious and pointed his finger at the empress.
"How dare you! It is clearly you who harbor ulterior motives and want to use this opportunity to murder me! You want to wait until I die so that the Crown Prince can succeed to the throne, is that it?!"
The Empress never expected that Feng Guche would misunderstand her so deeply.
"Your Majesty! It was not me! Someone else was the one who poisoned us. Please, Your Majesty, see the truth!"
The prince knelt on the ground and begged desperately.
"Father, my mother has been worried about your illness, so why would she poison you? There must be a villain involved. I hope you will reconsider!"
"Please, Your Majesty, issue an edict entrusting this matter to your son. I will definitely investigate it thoroughly and give Your Majesty an explanation!"
Feng Guche stared at Feng Xilan, but in his heart he was weighing the pros and cons, so he did not express his opinion.
“We can’t just listen to your side of the story this time; this definitely needs to be investigated.”
After Feng Guche finished speaking, Cang Xixue spoke up from the side.
"Your Highness, it might be inappropriate to entrust this matter to you. If it were given to you, it might be unfair."
After hearing this, the Emperor waved his hand.
"Your Highness, you should no longer get involved in this matter."
Just then, the Second Prince, Feng Mozhan, came to pay his respects to Feng Guche.
When Feng Moran entered, she noticed that the atmosphere in the room was off.
The Empress and the Crown Prince were both kneeling on the ground, and Cang Xixue beside them had a furrowed brow.
In addition, Chen Quan and the little palace maid next to him were also terrified.
Feng Mo Ran looked puzzled and hesitated for a moment before greeting Feng Gu Che.
"Your subject greets Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress, Your Majesty the Imperial Noble Consort, and Your Highness the Crown Prince."
