Just as the little girl was thinking hard about how to deal with it, a figure suddenly appeared next to her, and then knelt down beside her.

Ouyang Jing!

Her heart skipped a beat for no reason, and somehow, Lin Wanyan suddenly felt a sense of certainty that as long as he was there, everything would be solved.

This feeling came inexplicably and very quickly, but it strangely soothed her nervous mind.

"Your Majesty, everything Xiao Qi said is true. There is something fishy about Concubine Shu's death."

The young man's tone was sonorous and powerful, full of righteousness. He raised his hands and presented a token with white characters on it. He continued in a calm tone: "After I entered the courtyard, I was attacked by someone. Although the person was able to escape, but But I picked this up."

"There is also the residue of Concubine Shu's medicine. I have dug it out under the locust tree. If the little palace lady has no evil intentions, there is no need to dodge."

"Furthermore, it's just an ordinary inquiry for clues. Xiaoqi and the fifth princess did not lead anyone to force them, and they did not get close to Concubine Shu. It is difficult to judge what exactly happened based on the words of the empress and the eldest princess. It would not be possible if someone instigated a dissension. You know."

The two explained the whole matter in a clear and logical manner. Even the emperor couldn't help but secretly praise this rigorous logic. These are other people's children. They are all smart and almost demon-like in intelligence, but this is his own daughter...

Although the emotional card is also a means, if the day comes when the relationship is exhausted, no matter how much you cry, it will not help.

"I will send people to investigate this matter. You all should go back. In addition, this matter must not be spread randomly before it is investigated."

It is extremely inappropriate to accuse the queen of a country, even if the eldest princess is overwhelmed by anger.

It is a matter of royal dignity, so there is no reason why the emperor should not take it seriously.

After receiving the emperor's promise, everyone except the eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there is room for change, everything can work.

What's more, a concubine in the cold palace, a queen in the prime of life, and two aristocratic families, one can tell which one is more important at a glance.

Even to weigh the interests, the emperor would not make a decision easily, but just in case, they must report the matter back to the palace as soon as possible.

Lin Wanyan secretly glanced at Ouyang Jing, and both saw the solemn look in the other's eyes.

The eldest princess, who was at the end, seemed to have expected the current situation. She held Concubine Shu's gradually stiffening body and slowly lowered her eyes. Her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, covering her clear eyes full of resentment.

Look, even her father chose to give up on her after weighing the pros and cons. It was obviously a certainty, but Gu Feixu and Lin Wanyan, the culprits, were not punished at all.

And Ouyang Jing, why should he help them! She offered her sincerity to him, only to be trampled upon without realizing it. How ridiculous!

Since everyone wants to step on her, let's try to see who can have the last laugh.

She will avenge herself!

"Let's go back first." After touching the little girl's head, Ouyang Jing slowly showed a comforting smile, then squatted in front of her and motioned for Lin Wanyan to come up.

After the crisis was over for the time being, the heartbreaking pain in her ankle gradually came back. Lin Wanyan, who had never been too pretentious with herself, lay softly on Ouyang Jing's back and slowly left the small courtyard.

But when she was about to leave, she glanced back at the eldest princess, and saw the latter sitting on the ground blankly, looking dejected, as if she had been abandoned by the world...
