Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

Facing Concubine Hua's statement, the Queen looked at her unnaturally, then looked at the Emperor, and then smiled awkwardly:

"Noble Concubine Hua, I'm not saying that this matter must be done by you."

"Yes... There are only you and me in charge of this promotion ceremony. In addition, you, Noble Concubine Hua, have always been dissatisfied with Concubine Xi's promotion, so..."

"So, Your Majesty can just conclude that it was done by me without any investigation?"

As she spoke, Concubine Hua looked at the Queen, then at the Emperor and said:

"I'm going to presume to say something. If what the Queen said is true, then anyone who participated in the preparations could be suspected of destroying the wedding attire. Isn't the Queen the most likely person?"

"Chief Eunuch Jiang was personally appointed by the Empress to take over the management of the Ministry of Internal Affairs during Huang Guiquan's illness..."

Concubine Hua's words made the Emperor once again look at the Queen with suspicion.

Zhen Huan and her group did not say anything, they just sat there quietly, waiting for Concubine Hua's next performance.

To prove her innocence, the Queen quickly glanced at the Emperor and said:

"Empress Hua, you are being too biased. As the head of the Six Palaces, what reason do I have to do this?"

"I just said it in a different way, but the Queen felt that it was biased..."

As she spoke, Concubine Hua looked at the Queen hesitantly:

"Then why didn't the Queen feel this way when she was speculating about me behind my back?"

"Just because you, the Queen, don't like me, should I be subjected to your unwarranted accusations?"

Concubine Hua's questions one after another caught the Queen somewhat by surprise.

She didn't know since when Concubine Hua became so eloquent!

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua misunderstood my intentions. I just want to resolve this matter as quickly as possible and give Concubine Xi justice!"

"Give Concubine Xi some justice?" Concubine Hua snorted.

"If the Queen really wants to give Concubine Xi justice, she should interrogate the man kneeling before her more!"

As she spoke, Concubine Hua pointed at Jiang Zhongmin viciously and said:

"He was responsible for delivering the finished auspicious clothes to each of the minor palaces. How could he not know that the auspicious clothes were damaged?"

"How could he not know that the auspicious clothing for promotion should not be damaged?"

"After it was damaged, he did not report it to the Emperor and Empress immediately, but instead privately told Concubine Xi a solution."

"And this solution happened to allow Concubine Xi to wear the clothes of Empress Chunyuan..."

"Even if Jiang Zhongmin doesn't know whether this dress belongs to Queen Chunyuan, he should know that the Queen's dress cannot be worn by other concubines without permission, right?"

"All of these things can prove that Jiang Zhongmin has ulterior motives..."

Concubine Hua's clear and logical analysis gave the emperor a refreshing feeling.

Looking at Jiang Zhongmin kneeling and trembling in front of the palace, and the depressed queen, the emperor had already made up his mind.

"Jiang Zhongmin, why did you do this? Who instructed you to do this?"

"If you don't tell the truth today, I will fulfill your wish and have you beaten to death!"

After saying this, the emperor's hand fell heavily and forcefully on the table, making a "pa" sound.

Jiang Zhongmin's mind was in a mess at this time. In a hurry, he looked at the queen. After receiving the queen's warning look, he bowed his head and kowtowed with a crying voice:

"Your Majesty, I didn't do that. I didn't have someone behind the scenes to instigate me as Concubine Hua said. I just committed a serious crime out of negligence for a moment."

"I beg Your Majesty, Your Majesty, and Concubine Hua to forgive me this time and give me a lenient sentence."

Jiang Zhongmin's sophistry seemed extremely pale and powerless at this moment. Even without any evidence, the emperor agreed with Concubine Hua's statement in his heart.

The Queen's eyes were already freezing cold:

"Noble Concubine Hua, Jiang Zhongmin was assigned by me to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to temporarily serve as the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Are you saying that I ordered him to do so?"

"If you have no evidence, I will punish you for disrespect!"
