Seeing the scene before him, Feng Guche's expression grew even colder.
Seeing this, Cang Xixue spoke up from the side.
"Your Majesty, I have been by your side these past few days. Before each meal, I have tested the food for poison, but I have never found anything abnormal. But just now..."
Cang Xixue stopped speaking halfway through her sentence. The Emperor looked at Cang Xixue gently and nodded.
"I understand. You've worked hard these past few days. If it weren't for your meticulous care, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly. I must get to the bottom of what happened today."
As he was about to speak, Feng Guche stood up from the bed and turned to look at the guards not far away.
"Go and fetch the people from the Imperial Kitchen."
"yes!"
The guards left quickly after receiving their orders.
Shen Biyun looked at Feng Guche with a face full of despair, her eyes reddening.
After so many years of marriage, is this how the man in front of me sees me?
Shen Biyun admitted that since she saw the man in front of her clearly, she had indeed felt somewhat desperate, and even put power and status first.
However, Shen Biyun never intended to poison Feng Guche.
Slowly closing her eyes, Shen Biyun took a deep breath and knelt down before Feng Guche again.
"Your Majesty, since I entered the palace, I never imagined that this day would come. Your Majesty does not believe me. What is the reason that Your Majesty views me in this way?"
"As the mistress of the harem, although I cannot say that I have been diligent and devoted, I have done my best and have never been negligent."
"As Your Majesty's son is the Crown Prince, I dare not make the slightest mistake, for fear of being criticized and failing to set a good example for others. Your Majesty, where exactly have I gone wrong?"
Faced with Shen Biyun's questioning, Feng Guche found it difficult to respond.
However, as the ruler of a country, Feng Guche could completely ignore Shen Biyun's questions.
The main hall was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Left with no other choice, Shen Biyun could only look at Feng Xilan beside her.
At this moment, Feng Xilan was stunned, completely unaware that her mother was looking at her.
At this moment, Feng Xilan was completely confused.
Even though she knew someone had set this up, Feng Xilan had absolutely no clue whatsoever.
At this moment, Feng Xilan was even annoyed with her own slow reaction.
I should have been more vigilant when I first heard Shen Biyun say that the Emperor had a problem.
But Feng Xilan never expected that those who were secretly plotting would arrive so quickly and make their move so soon.
"Father, I request that the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Academy be summoned. This matter is of great importance, and I beg Your Majesty's permission."
Feng Xilan knelt down beside Shen Biyun, her face solemn.
"I don't need you to teach me how to do this. My health has recovered now. Besides, even if something were to happen, there would be no need to consult you!"
Feng Guche's words were extremely cold.
Feng Xilan was stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief.
The man before her was her father, but he was also the current emperor.
Now, he has taken on another role: a stranger.
Feng Xilan never imagined that one day her father would speak to her in such a tone; his attitude made her feel as if she were standing on the edge of an abyss.
Shen Biyun opened her mouth, but in the end, she could only sigh.
Just then, Cang Xixue, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.
