It was obvious that he conspired with the queen and sent the palace maid to poison Shen Qin's soup. This suicide note states that he wanted to kill King Xi with poison.

This poisonous woman was smart enough to eliminate her own suspicion, because on the surface, she had no reason to kill her stepson.

"Nonsense, it's all nonsense!"

He clenched the letter tightly and knelt down.

"These are all false accusations. Why would I want to harm my fifth brother? Even if he wanted to, he would not do it at his birthday party. What's more, my father is ill, so how can I be in the mood to engage in these conspiracies and tricks?"

He had already thought of some of the excuses.

In fact, after thinking about it, the content of this suicide note was actually a good thing for him.

He was very aware of Emperor Kang's preference for him, and relied on this preference to act unscrupulously.

But the premise is that Emperor Kang believes in his filial piety towards him.

It would be fatal if Emperor Kang suspected that he wanted to harm the doctor who was treating him.

After a moment of silence, Kandi softened his tone and said,

"But Eunuch Zhang also asked, if a servant saw this palace maid summoned alone before the birthday banquet, how would you explain it?"

"My son is just..."

Levi used his brain and came up with a more convincing excuse, and he said it deliberately.

"Just seeing how beautiful she is..."

"You!" Kandi pointed at him, feeling angry for a moment.

Li Wei bowed down.

"My son, I made a mistake, please punish me!"

Kandi's fingers stayed in the air for a long time, then finally put them down and took a long breath.

"You're right."

"Thank you very much for your father's willingness to believe in me. I will definitely restrain my behavior in the future to avoid being framed."

After saying that, Li Wei kowtowed to Emperor Kang.

Emperor Kang looked much more pleasant.

"Weier, get up. Since someone wants to frame you, it's up to you to investigate this matter."

The Imperial Master, who had been silent all this time, hurriedly spoke up,

"Your Majesty, isn't this appropriate..."

Emperor Kang glanced at it and choked back what the imperial master said.

Li Wei stood up solemnly and accepted the order.

"Father, don't worry, I will definitely give an explanation to my fifth brother."

When he turned around and retreated, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up. The bet was right! His father still favored him.

All those who oppose him will die without burial!

After the prince retired, Emperor Kang on the bed closed his eyes to rest, and silence returned to the palace.

The Imperial Master stroked the fly whisk with his hand, his expression a little complicated.

There was no longer any white smoke floating in the incense burner. Eunuch Zhang was about to replace the incense sticks, but was stopped by Emperor Kang.

"Do you think Weier is telling the truth?"

Eunuch Zhang stopped and bowed.

"The old slave dare not speak nonsense."

"Humph, I knew you would only say that."

Emperor Kan looked at this old servant who had been with him for most of his life. He never fought for power or formed factions, but served him wholeheartedly. He felt that this was the most trustworthy person around him.

"I understand that my son has been spoiled since he was a child and is too domineering. Xi'er asked me for medical treatment. He was probably dissatisfied. It seems that he wanted to kill all my sons before he could rest assured. "

Eunuch Zhang advised softly, "Your Majesty, a suicide note alone can't explain anything. Maybe His Highness the Crown Prince has really been framed."

Emperor Kang shook his head. Although Weier satisfied him in all aspects, he was a bit cruel and ruthless and might attack him one day. Although he had the power of Prime Minister Mu and Li Si to restrain him, it still made people uneasy.

The Imperial Preceptor further said: "Since Your Majesty has doubts about him, why did you let him investigate the case?"
