"Why, just because I refused a few times, did she want to get rid of me so that I could give up my position and let her son become the legitimate heir?"
When everyone heard that it was the concubine who did it, they could basically guess the motive.
"Ming Huilan was one of the two maidens back then, and she was willing to be the prince consort's concubine. I think the rumors that she once had feelings for the prince consort are true. Now, for the sake of her position as consort and for her son to become the legitimate son, it is very likely that she did such a thing."
"Isn't it said that the prince consort dotes on the princess? Why doesn't he seem to be that way?"
"How much doting can there be? After all, she can't have children. Having a concubine and having children is definitely different."
"You think Ming Huilan has been dragging it on until she's in her twenties? Could it be related to that person?"
"Is it possible? I remember she was engaged, but two of her fiancés died and became ill in succession, and then her grandparents passed away, so she didn't get married until she was in her twenties."
"Then why would the Prince Consort choose her if it was delayed until then?"
"Wasn't this chosen by the princess?"
"He also agreed to the princess's selection. Think about it, if you had no feelings for her, would you leave a young girl in her prime and choose someone with a bad fate who would waste her years?"
"That's true. What have you done to the princess over the years..."
"Oh my God, this cannot be said!"
Although everyone was talking in low voices, Tao Wenyuan heard some of it, and everyone almost guessed the root of the matter. In addition, Pingyang looked at him a little hurriedly and said,
"If Pingyang was really her fault, I will be the first one to not forgive her!"
Pingyang was also listening to everyone's discussion. It turned out that there were so many unreasonable things and so many loopholes. She didn't even realize how much of a failure she was.
"First, please ask the doctor to check whether the mushrooms in this bowl are the poisonous mushrooms that the cook mentioned!"
The two doctors who were invited came forward to take a closer look.
"Princess, it is indeed a poisonous fungus. This fungus can dissolve blood. If it is not treated in time, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Someone, go catch the person who delivered the mushrooms and bring Aunt Ming here."
Pingyang did not stop Tao Wenyuan from speaking. He always made decisions for himself. Now it seems that he did not take her seriously and did not regard her as a princess. What does "make decisions for himself" mean? He meant making decisions for himself.
Her princess's mansion really became the prince consort's
Soon Aunt Ming was brought over.
"Princess, the man who delivered the mushrooms knew he was guilty of a grave crime. When we went to arrest him, he had already hanged himself."
"Okay, okay, what a great trick, one thing after another. I really misjudged you all these years. I thought you were someone who wouldn't fight back, but you turned out to be so cruel and vicious. Prince Consort, are you going to protect her? If you really can't let her go, this palace..."
"No, I didn't say I would protect her. I just didn't believe it at first, and now there's no evidence~"
"Isn't the evidence enough at this point? What constitutes sufficient evidence? Did you witness her poisoning me to death?"
"Ming, do you have anything else to say?"
Ming Huilan never expected that she would be rescued, and the person sent to silence her was also killed. Fortunately, someone had just come to inform her, giving her time to kill the person sent to deliver the mushrooms. Now, even if they all believed that she did it, there was no way to hold her accountable without evidence.
This is what the prince consort's men did. Although he also wanted to kill Ming Huilan, he was afraid that Ming would say something unfavorable to him in public, so if he could save her for the time being, he would do so.
When you really can't save her, just kill her with a knife and try not to give her a chance to speak.
"Princess, I am innocent. I know nothing about these things. I have always lived in the backyard and never interfered with the affairs of the mansion. It is impossible for me to have the opportunity to harm you. Please be clear-headed, Princess."
"Prince Consort, do you also think it's really not her?"
"The evidence is broken at this point, I can't be sure..."
Haha, it’s time to give up. Princess Pingyang’s heart kept falling and had already fallen into the abyss.
At this time, someone finally came from the palace.
When Congcong delivered the letter, the emperor had just woken up from a nap. He had been reviewing memorials all day and felt dizzy, so he took a nap.
It walked into the imperial study with ease and saw Eunuch Gao helping him rinse his mouth.
“Chirp~”
First give a reminder, it means it is coming
"Hey, why are you here at this time?"
Looking at the familiar bottle on his lap, he quickly sent Gao Qi away.
"Go guard outside"
Gao Qi knew what to do already, so he trotted outside and closed the door.
“Chirp!”
[Hurry up and get the letter, it concerns your sister's safety! ]
The emperor didn't understand, but seeing it stretching its legs to signal again and again, he had to put down the teacup in his hand and go to untie the bottle first.
"Isn't anything serious going to happen again? No one should have the guts to cause trouble these days!"
When I opened it, I found out that something had happened to my sister. There was no external trouble, but it was a serious matter.
Bai Zhiyue not only put the small note from the King of Chu in, but also wrote a general explanation of the situation.
"The prince consort was sent here by Consort Zhuang Gui. The imperial physician who examined the princess was bribed and arranged by them. The prince consort used the princess's mansion to send information to the King of Chu and to send people to his death. He also gave false evidence to harm those who were loyal to you. Based on these, he can be sentenced to death.
Ming and the Prince Consort have had an affair for a long time, but Ming's eldest son is not his. He was cheated on, and there are letters that he can't put away. Bring them over next time. Send someone to the Princess's Mansion for help. The Princess is not ruthless enough and has feelings for the Prince Consort. I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it."
"My sister has been harmed by them her entire life. It is not a pity for them to die."
Think about the miserable situation of your harem.
"Zhuang shouldn't have let you die so easily. You should have been exposed to the world and your ashes scattered."
Thinking of his imperial sister's current situation, he immediately ordered the guards to follow him out of the palace, and he wanted to go there in person.
The guards walked with heavy and uniform steps to escort the emperor into the princess's mansion.
"The Emperor has arrived~"
"Ah, the emperor is here, let's see what the prince consort will do."
"I definitely can't protect the Ming family now."
"The princess is truly pitiful. Judging from the appearance of the prince consort, he doesn't really love her at all. Otherwise, why would he only care about protecting his concubine?"
"Don't you see that in front of the princess, the prince consort can make decisions at will? I think he is used to being the boss."
"It's obviously that woman who did it. Who else could it be? Could it be the Prince Consort himself?"
"If the Emperor doesn't come, the princess is afraid she won't be able to punish Ming. It's obvious that everyone in the palace obeys the Prince Consort's orders."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense!"
"I'm afraid there will be no more spring banquets at Princess Pingyang's mansion."
As soon as the emperor came in, everyone knelt down to pay their respects. Among the crowd stood Bai Zhiyue, who was half squatting.
"Your Majesty, may your Majesty be well and safe."
"Royal brother~"
When seeing his relatives, Pingyang couldn't stop crying. They were brothers from the same mother, so their feelings were naturally different from those of others.
"I'll take care of everything for you, so rest assured."
"Um!"
Pingyang's excited heart slowly calmed down
"Everyone, get up! I heard Pingyang was poisoned. I brought the imperial physician here, but he hasn't checked the princess's pulse yet."
"yes"
