After my rebirth, my whole family read my mind, and my father decided to usurp the throne.

Seeing that a young eunuch was about to come in and drag the maid away, the imperial concubine said, "Forget it, don't kill me. I will give you one last chance to serve me well."

If you make me angry again, I will not intercede for you next time! "

"Okay, I won't kill you if my concubine says you won't. Please step back."

The old emperor waved his hand, and the two young eunuchs withdrew.

The palace maid knelt down limply on the ground and kowtowed to the imperial concubine, "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After kowtowing, the palace maid withdrew with cold sweat all over her body.

"Your Majesty, how is Mei Cui's matter?"

The imperial concubine took the initiative to mention it.

The old emperor put his arm around the concubine's shoulders and played with her hand.

"I came here to tell my concubine about this. The secret guard interrogated Mei Cui and found out the result.

The person who bribed Mei Cui to poison you was Concubine Shu.

Mei Cui only said that Concubine Shu ordered her, then she bit her tongue and committed suicide, unable to ask any other questions.

Dear Concubine, have you ever had any conflicts with Concubine Shu? "

The imperial concubine was stunned, "Mei Cui bit her tongue and committed suicide?"

"Yes, Mei Cui has a tough mouth. The secret guards used various tortures on her in order to interrogate her.

Finally, she said that Concubine Shu had instigated her. When the secret guards continued to interrogate her, she bit her tongue and committed suicide.

Originally, I wanted to keep Mei Cui's body for you to see, my beloved concubine.

After all, Mei Cui is also a maid who has been with you for decades, but she was tortured and her body was very scary. I was afraid that it would scare you, so I let them deal with it.

I don’t know what kind of benefits Shu Concubine promised Mei Cui that made Mei Cui bite her tongue and commit suicide rather than say more about Shu Concubine. "

The old emperor's words made the concubine's throat sore, and her heart was filled with the pain and sadness of being betrayed.

These days, she has been thinking about why Mei Cui betrayed her.

But she couldn't understand it no matter how hard she tried!

The imperial concubine took a deep breath, "Your Majesty, do you have any plans for Concubine Shu? Or do you want me to endure it?"

The imperial concubine didn't bother to beat around the bush with the old emperor and asked directly.

The old emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, "How can I let my beloved concubine endure it? I will order people to interrogate her at Concubine Shu's place. As long as she admits it, I will punish her."

"What if she doesn't admit it? What if she destroys all the evidence that can prove that she ordered Mei Cui to poison the concubine?

Will the emperor stop punishing her? Or should I let my concubine pretend that this didn't happen?

After all, Concubine Shu is the Queen's cousin. "

The imperial concubine changed her usual docile temperament and asked the old emperor questions.

The old emperor frowned, "My beloved concubine, what happened to you today? Why have you become so unreasonable?

Do you not believe me, or do you not believe I am on your side? "

The imperial concubine closed her eyes and tears fell, just falling on the back of the old emperor's hand.

The warm touch made the old emperor's hands tremble.

"Your Majesty, because of Concubine Shu, something almost happened to my granddaughter!

It doesn’t matter if something happens to my concubine! But my granddaughter is only one month old!

It was all because Concubine Shu wanted to plot against Chen and his concubine that Jiuer was implicated!

Your Majesty, even if you don't care about my concubine, please give Concubine Shu a punishment for your granddaughter's sake!

I kneel down for you! "

As the imperial concubine spoke, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the old emperor.

The old emperor grabbed the imperial concubine and prevented her from kneeling down.

"My beloved, you are hurting my heart!

Jiu'er is also my little granddaughter! I promise you, regardless of whether Concubine Shu admits it or not, whether I can find evidence or not, I will punish Concubine Shu and teach her a lesson! "

After hearing what she wanted to hear, the imperial concubine stood up and saluted the old emperor.

"I would like to thank the emperor for making the decision for me and Jiu'er. If Prince Kang's family finds out, they will definitely be very grateful to the emperor."

The old emperor sighed, "You are relying on me to favor you. If it were anyone else who dared to talk to me like this, I would have had him dragged out long ago."

The imperial concubine sat back next to the old emperor and squeezed his arm. There was a smile on her well-maintained face, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

"I am proud of my concubines. Who allows the emperor to pamper my concubines?"

The old emperor stayed with the imperial concubine for a while before leaving.

After the old emperor left, the smile on the imperial concubine's face disappeared immediately.

Concubine Shu instigated Mei Cui to poison her?

Oh, she didn't believe it.

Even if it was really Concubine Shu, it was with the knowledge of the old emperor and even his tacit approval!

Otherwise, Jiu'er wouldn't have said in her heart that she clearly died of poison in her previous life, but the old emperor didn't investigate the cause of death for her, and even deliberately poured a basin of dirty water on her!

Isn't this just covering up the person who poisoned her? !

How blind did she have to be in her previous life to think that she was the most beloved concubine of the old emperor!

The emperor's favor is not only arsenic but also a shield!

The imperial concubine closed her eyes, adjusted her emotions, and raised her voice to call the palace maid in.

The palace maid experienced a narrow escape from death just now, and now her eyebrows are lowered and her eyes are much smoother.

"What are your orders, Madam?"

“I don’t care who your master is, I just saved you and gave you a new life.

From now on, you can only have one person from this palace as your master.

If I find out that you are in the Cao camp and your heart is in the Han Dynasty, I can let the emperor kill you once or a second time! "

The imperial concubine's voice was cold and majestic, and the palace maid knelt on the ground with a thud, her lowered eyes flashing, "Yes! The only master of this slave is you, my queen!"

Only she knew how insincere her words were.

On the other side, An Yi came to Prince Kang's Mansion.

Prince Kang had met An Yi. In the past, when the old emperor had something to give him, he would either ask Eunuch Fuquan to deliver the instructions, or An Yi would come quietly.

King Kang felt his heart skip a beat when he saw An Yi appear.

Before the snow disaster was over, my father suddenly sent An Yi to the door...

This makes people feel a little panicked.

"An Yi, what is your father's order?"

King Kang asked first.

An nodded, "Prince Kang, the assassin who appeared at your daughter's full moon ceremony that day has been recruited. He was ordered by the Minister of Rites, but the assassin also committed suicide.

Mei Cui, who poisoned the imperial concubine and implicated her daughter, bit her tongue and committed suicide after revealing that the instigator was the imperial concubine Shu.

The emperor said that because the assassin committed suicide, except for the assassin's witness, there was no other evidence to prove that the assassin sent by the Minister of Rites went to assassinate your beloved during the full moon ceremony.

Therefore, the emperor could not order the arrest of the Minister of Rites.

Please ask Prince Kang to find evidence for this matter. As long as there is evidence, the emperor will handle it.

As for the matter of Concubine Shu, the emperor will tell the concubine about it and let the concubine decide how to deal with it. Prince Kang, you don’t have to worry about it. "
