The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

When Jing Shu arrived, Kunning Palace was already full of people.

With such a big incident happening, Lu Zan was naturally sent over by the queen.

When Jing Shu saw him, she couldn't help but be stunned. It seemed that the two of them had not seen each other for more than half a month.

Seeing her staring at him, Lu Zan couldn't help but frown, with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face.

Seeing this, Jingshu quickly returned to her senses and saluted: "I have met the Emperor and the Queen."

"Get up." Lu Zan said concisely, "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jing Shu stood up and sat down in her seat.

"There is something wrong with Empress Xiuyi in her own palace, but she came so late. Are you hiding evidence of the crime?" At this time, Cui Liangdi suddenly spoke, her tone was quite gloating.

"What do you mean something happened in my own palace?"

Jing Shu glanced at her indifferently, "That dry well is between Yicui Palace and Changchun Palace. Speaking of which, it seems to be closer to Shen Yin Palace where Cui Liangdi lives, right?"

"You're spitting blood!" Cui Liangdi couldn't hold her breath at all. She stood up after Jing Shu's few words and retorted with annoyance on her face.

"I can't compare to Cui Liangdi who just opened her mouth and condemned me."

Jing Shu said, turned to look at Lu Zan, and said softly, "Your Majesty, look at her. I have just sat down. I haven't said anything yet. She can't wait to slander me. I am also the emperor after all." I am a third-grade Xiuyi, and I am not a cat or a dog that can be bullied by her. Is this disrespectful to the superior? Should she be punished?"

"What are you talking about, cat and dog? Since you know your status, why are you talking about yourself like this? It's outrageous!" Lu Zan scolded her with a frown, but there was no harshness in his words. Instead, there was an indescribable feeling when he opened his mouth. The meaning of pampering and protecting.

Jing Shu said that just to test Lu Zan's attitude towards her.

Hearing his tone, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"With the emperor protecting me like this, I have nothing to fear." She looked at Lu Zan and smiled brightly with her bright eyes and white teeth. It was like the most priceless treasure in the world, emitting a dazzling brilliance, which made people instantly Some can't move their eyes away.

Lu Zan didn't speak anymore, and only glanced at her lightly, but there was clearly a smile in his eyes.

Beside, Concubine Xie's heart trembled when she saw it.

She suddenly discovered sadly that Lu Zan had never looked at her like this before.

He had smiled to himself.

But that smile was different from that. It was a smile that conveyed emotions without using any words.

Concubine Xie couldn't help but ask herself. In the past, she always thought that Lu Zan liked her, but was that really the case?

Is it because she has never seen what Lu Zan really likes someone, so she misunderstood him?

Do you think that the way he treats me means he likes her?

Concubine Xie forced herself to suppress the chaotic and suppressed emotions at the moment. Regardless of whether Lu Zan really liked Jing Shu or not, Jing Shu would have to die anyway!

"No matter how much we talk now, it's better to figure out what's going on."

Concubine Xie said in a cold tone, "Everyone in the palace knows that Wen Liangdi has always been kind to others since she entered the palace, but she only had a dispute with Yuan Xiuyi and offended Yuan Xiuyi.

"Now her body has been found in the dry well behind Yicui Palace. No matter what you think, Yuan Xiuyi is the most suspected, and she is the most likely to have killed Wen Liangdi."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jing Shu smiled again.

"What a 'seem'. It turns out that the imperial concubine never likes to look at real evidence when convicting people. She only relies on the word 'seems'? Then I also said that it seems that the imperial concubine killed Wen Liangdi on someone else's behalf and then dumped her body." He went into that dry well so that he could frame me as a concubine!" She immediately retorted.

"You are presumptuous!"

Concubine Xie slammed the table, stared at her with disgust, and said sternly, "You have done something wrong, and you still want to admit it? Do you really think that the eyes of the harem can't see clearly what kind of person you are?"

When she said this, many concubines started to speak in agreement.

"Yes, Wen Liangdi was ignorant and took Yuan Xiuyi's position before. Yuan Xiuyi had a grudge against Wen Liangdi. Now seeing that Wen Liangdi had lost the favor of the Holy Emperor, he took the opportunity to attack her, killed her and threw her body into the well. !”

"Although it is a bit stupid to do this, after all, no one will leave the body closest to themselves, but it is possible to kill someone in a hurry and not choose a way out. After all, it is a dry well, and there is no one at all on weekdays. Pay attention, if the corpse had not rotted in the well and emitted a stinky smell, and it happened to be discovered by the cleaners, I am afraid the matter would not have been exposed."

"That's right. Besides, Wen Liangdi didn't come to pay his respects to the Queen in the past two days. Didn't Yuan Xiuyi mention it yesterday that maybe Wen Liangdi was feeling unwell and couldn't walk? She might be it. It’s an informed statement, after all, the dead cannot walk.”

Several concubines were arguing non-stop.

Jing Shu glanced over and found that almost all of them were newcomers to the palace, except for Su Shunyi and Xu Changzai who didn't speak.

She immediately smiled and said:

"Look, Your Majesty, I used to listen to the discussions of the maids and eunuchs in the palace. I heard that Prime Minister Xie always responded to everything in the court, and there were many courtiers who attached themselves to him. I didn't expect that Concubine Xie also had so many supporters in the harem. Defeators, it’s true that the tiger father has no dog daughter!”

"You are talking nonsense! You dare to bite my father in an attempt to drive a wedge between the emperor and my father? My father is very loyal to the emperor. What everyone in the harem says is only well-founded. How can he be my father?" Are you a supporter?" Concubine Xie's face instantly turned livid again, and she immediately retorted through gritted teeth.

In response, Jing Shu directly output:

"Whether Prime Minister Xie is loyal or not is obvious to all, but why are you so angry, my concubine? I just said a few words casually, and you are so angry? Be careful of wrinkles on your face, my concubine! After all, you are not even young. I'm young, and I've given birth to two children... Oh no, I didn't give birth to both, and that's not right, the second one was not born. Look at my memory, I started forgetting things before I was even eighteen years old. , I’m so sorry! Don’t be angry, concubine! You’ll get wrinkles! If you smile, you’ll be ten years younger!”

After saying these words, not to mention how ugly Concubine Xie's face turned.

First of all, the concubine couldn't help it, and burst out laughing!

She was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth and lowered her head for fear of being discovered.

Then the Empress and Concubine Ning picked up the teacups in unison, hiding their uncontrollable smiles.

However, only Lu Zan showed a hint of smile in his eyes without hesitation.

At this point, Jing Shu saw that Concubine Xie was about to have another attack, and she immediately said with a serious face: "Having said all that, isn't today's theme to frame me for killing Wen Liangdi? Then let's get the evidence!"

Concubine Xie suppressed the anger in her heart and glanced at her coldly: "False accusation? I will let you die today! Come here! Take out the things!"
