When the queen heard this, her face turned pale. She pressed Dongfang Yunhe hard and told her not to make a sound.
Concubine Wei suppressed her smile and asked anxiously with a frown, "Doctor Wang, is the poison here the same as the one Miss Liu was poisoned with today?"
Imperial Physician Wang raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"It's the same kind." He explained truthfully.
The queen felt her heart stop for a moment. She looked at Dongfang Yunhe in shock. Besides shock, she was also angry at being deceived.
Dongfang Yunhe was shocked.
"Mother, I didn't! These poison needles are not mine, they really are not mine!"
"Grandmother! You must believe Yunhe. These must have been placed in my palace by Liu Wuyou! It must be her!"
Dongfang Yunhe was extremely angry and rushed towards Liu Wuyou.
"Liu Wuyou, you bitch! I'm going to kill you!" Dongfang Yunhe pulled out the golden hairpin on her head, looking like she was going to fight Liu Wuyou to the death.
Liu Wuyou stood up in horror and protected Madam Liu behind him.
"Why don't you hold the princess back!" Concubine Wei was the first to react, and immediately a palace servant hurried forward to hold Dongfang Yunhe back.
Dongfang Yunhe shouted and struggled, his emotions out of control.
"Empress Dowager! The princess is now ready to kill Miss Liu in front of you and His Majesty, and these poison needles were indeed found in Yunhe Palace. This is absolutely irrefutable evidence!"
Concubine Wei was surprised and shocked as she determined Dongfang Yunhe's guilt.
The queen stood up and pointed at her, wanting to refute, but how could she refute?
Were you as foolish as Dongfang Yunhe to say that Liu Wuyou was framing the whole thing? But Liu Wuyou had never been to Yunhe Palace!
"Empress, you're not trying to say that I helped Miss Liu frame the princess, are you? You're overthinking it. This is the first time I've met Miss Liu. Not to mention Miss Liu, I've never even had any private contact with Madam Liu."
Concubine Wei said to the Empress Dowager in a wronged tone, "Your Majesty, although Miss Liu was treated in my palace just now, I have never met her privately. I met her with Your Majesty at that time."
"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me." Concubine Wei pleaded with the emperor again.
As expected of the queen of the harem, Liu Wuyou didn’t say a word, but Concubine Wei had already cleared all the blame for her.
Everyone knows that Liu Wuyou has never been to Yunhe Palace.
What Concubine Wei meant by this was that there was no one else in the harem who could help Liu Wuyou frame her.
Because apart from Concubine Wei, it is even less likely for anyone else to contact Liu Wuyou privately.
At least that's what it looks like on the surface.
"It's not like that! Father! I didn't do it, I really didn't do it! She framed me, she framed me!!!" Dongfang Yunhe, who was being pulled by someone, began to cry and scream. She felt unprecedented injustice and frustration.
But no one present believed her.
Even the queen thought her daughter was stupid at this time. She did such a thing without informing her first and instead kept it secret from her!
"Where did you find these poison needles?" the emperor finally spoke.
The young eunuch holding the poison needle immediately responded, "A small vase in Princess Yunhe's bedroom suddenly fell and shattered, exposing the handkerchief and the poison needle."
"Is this handkerchief the princess's?"
"Yes, the princess's handkerchiefs all have unique markings just like this one."
The emperor closed his eyes when he heard this. It was indeed conclusive evidence.
"Come here, take the princess back to Yunhe Palace for reflection. Without my order, you are not allowed to step out of Yunhe Palace!"
