Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

While thinking, An Lingrong's voice continued to ring in my ears:

"Your Majesty, if all this was really done by Concubine Xi, why would she only use a mild dose of arsenic?"

"Could it be that he wanted to leave her alive and wait for Concubine Duan to identify her?"

"Anpin said it well!"

Concubine Hua looked at Concubine Duan with disdain, then looked at the Emperor:

"If you poison someone and still want to save his life, wouldn't that make you a fool?"

"I wonder if the emperor thinks that Concubine Xi is so stupid?"

The emperor still didn't speak, but looked at Concubine Duan.

Concubine Duan's face became extremely ugly at this moment. It was unknown whether it was because of the torture of the poison in her body or because her secrets had been exposed.

"Emperor...Emperor..."

Concubine Duan weakly prostrated herself before the Emperor:

"It may be that Concubine Xi was anxious and didn't give the right dosage, but you can't assume that Concubine Xi is innocent, Your Majesty!"

The emperor looked at Concubine Duan's hand with disgust and stepped back instinctively.

"Hongli, what do you think about this matter?"

Hongli thought about it and felt that he must not let Concubine Xi go until the last moment.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future.

"Father, unless Imperial Concubine Xi has evidence to prove that she did not poison, otherwise... I still beg you to seek justice for my mother."

"good very good!"

The emperor took the green pearl bag in his hand and twisted it a few times, in order to better suppress the anger in his heart:

"Hongli, you are very filial."

"Concubine Duan, since you keep saying that it was Concubine Xi who harmed you, do you dare to swear on your entire family?"

"If you swear, and Concubine Xi cannot prove herself, I will banish her to the cold palace and escort you out."

"To make up for your grievances, how about I make you a noble concubine?"

When Hua Fei and the others heard the emperor's words, their hearts skipped a beat.

"Your Majesty, it's just an oath, you just said it without thinking. Isn't it really unfair to treat Concubine Xi like this?"

Concubine Hua was the first to kneel before the emperor and plead for mercy.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Ying'er and Chun'er followed An Lingrong and knelt down:

"Yes, Your Majesty, there were only Concubine Xi and Concubine Duan in the room at the time. How do you want Concubine to prove herself?"

"Your Majesty, even if you don't consider the fact that Concubine Xi has accompanied you for many years, please consider the princess and the prince and investigate this matter thoroughly, Your Majesty!"

For a moment, everyone had different thoughts, but Zhen Huan just lowered her head and knelt on the ground, looking as if she was admitting her guilt.

Hongli saw this and felt that Zhen Huan was unable to prove herself.

The Emperor had said it beforehand. If my mother really swore an oath, even if the Emperor wanted to protect Concubine Xi afterwards, he would not be able to do so!

If Concubine Xi was sent to the cold palace, what would the Sixth Prince achieve?

Hair, hair, hair!

This is an opportunity given by God. I must make my mother swear this oath no matter what!

When my mother becomes a royal concubine, won’t I be... ?

The more Hongli thought about it, the more excited he became. He looked up at Concubine Duan and said:

"Mother, a person of integrity has nothing to fear. Since Imperial Concubine Xi has completely disregarded our former sisterly friendship and poisoned you, you don't have to care about her anymore..."

Concubine Duan met Hongli's eager eyes that were full of hints. She knew exactly what Hongli was thinking.

As for swearing an oath on the whole family, Zhen Huan just told Concubine Duan that Concubine Duan had never sworn because she was afraid that Zhen Huan would really bring the matter to the Emperor and implicate the whole family.

Now that the emperor not only said this, but also offered such tempting conditions, there must be more to come.

But just as they said, there were only me and Concubine Xi in the room at that time, and no one else...

Even if Concubine Xi was a god who could tell fortunes, she would not be able to find an avatar to prove her innocence at this moment.

Thinking this in her heart, Concubine Duan decided to swear that no matter what punishment the emperor said next, she would take the gamble.

"Your Majesty, although my health has always been poor, I have managed to survive for so many years. If I had not cherished my life, I would not have survived when Concubine Hua gave me that bowl of red flowers."

"Does Your Majesty have to make me swear before he is willing to believe that it was Concubine Xi who harmed me?"

"Your Majesty, my queen didn't..." Jin Xi said crying.

Concubine Jing observed silently for a long time, and still felt that things would turn around:

"Your Majesty, let's not talk about whether Concubine Xi poisoned Concubine Duan, but Your Majesty just said that Concubine Duan swore an oath and punished Concubine Xi."

"I haven't said what punishment Concubine Duan will give if Concubine Xi can prove herself."

"We can't let her swear casually for no reason and convict Concubine Xi!"

"I'm going to say something I shouldn't say. Not only will Concubine Duan feel safe, but I'll also feel that if I do something wrong in the future, I can just swear an oath and get away with it."

The emperor hesitated for a moment and looked at Concubine Jing:

"Since the whole family has sworn an oath, it means that Concubine Duan believes that what she said is the truth. If it is the truth, then there is no need to confess. If it is not the truth..."

The emperor paused and looked at Concubine Duan:

"Just as you swore, so shall you keep your oath!"

"Your Majesty, I still feel that..."

"Alright, Concubine Hua!"

The Emperor lowered his eyes to look at Concubine Hua and interrupted her:

"You are in a heavy position, so stop kneeling on the ground and speaking for Concubine Xi."

"If she has done that, even if you kneel down and pierce the ground right now, you can't save her!"

"If she hadn't done it, she would be safe even if you didn't plead for her!"

After hearing what the emperor said, Concubine Hua didn't know what to say and had to stand up.

Although she knew that Zhen Huan was wronged, where could she find evidence?

"Empress Duan, I have to remind you that you can't make an oath casually. Otherwise, it is very likely to backfire!"

"I don't think you would be so stupid as to sacrifice your entire family just for your own selfish interests!"

After hearing what Concubine Hua said, Concubine Duan became even angrier.

Since you are so eager to speak for Concubine Xi, I must swear!

Even Concubine Xi knew that she could not prove herself, so she simply kept silent and did not argue.

And you, Concubine Hua, are trying to stand out here. When I become a noble concubine, I will use you as the first person to demonstrate against me!

Impulse is the devil. The hatred towards Concubine Hua and the desire to torture her are gradually devouring Concubine Duan's reason:

"Hua Fei, are you forcing me to confess my guilt?"

"But the facts are the facts, and no one can exonerate Concubine Xi!"

Having said that, Concubine Duan stopped pretending and knelt straight up:

"Your Majesty, I am willing to swear on behalf of my entire family that it was Concubine Xi who poisoned me!"

"
