I made the villain right.

Inside the palace, Xu Wuchen received the news, hurried out of the palace, and rode at full speed to Prime Minister Qin's residence.

When the concubine heard that she had been drugged to make her childless, the blood instantly drained from her delicate face.

The Third Aunt's body shook violently, and the maid beside her supported her in time so that she did not collapse to the ground.

Her eyes were filled with pain and anger, and she said in a trembling voice: "No wonder I haven't been able to get pregnant for so many years. It turns out you did something to me."

When the Fourth Aunt learned about this, she was furious. Her eyebrows were raised and her eyes were wide open.

"Ms. Shen, you vicious woman!"

The fourth concubine stood up suddenly, ran towards Shen with great momentum, and waved her hand at her.

Shen was captured by Yan Cheng and had no way to escape. She was hit directly and several red fingerprints appeared on her face in an instant.

Shen glared at the Fourth Aunt, her eyes filled with murderous intent and resentment.

"Well, you are in cahoots with me, and you have convicted me just because of the words of a servant. I think one of you must have deliberately placed the medicine in my room in order to kill me."

Shen roared at the top of his lungs, his voice filled with despair and anger.

At this moment, Xu Wuyou's eyes revealed a hint of impatience, and he no longer had the patience to listen to Shen's nonsense.

She frowned slightly and immediately walked to Chuntao's side. She looked down at Chuntao who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and said in a cold tone: "Chuntao, I will ask you one last time, who instructed you to do this? If I find out that you deliberately framed the Shen family, I will never let you off easily. You'd better think it over before answering, otherwise the consequences will not be something you can bear."

Chun Tao slowly raised her head, her eyes full of determination. "Princess, I am willing to die to prove that what I said is true."

After saying that, Chuntao swallowed a pill.

Everyone was shocked as they looked at Chuntao who had fallen to the ground.

Shen's eyes were filled with horror that Chuntao could actually do such a desperate thing.

The incident happened suddenly, and everyone was stunned by Chuntao's act of committing suicide to prove her integrity, and no one tried to stop her.

A memory suddenly came to her mind.

On a dark night, Chuntao secretly left the house and went to a teahouse to meet Xu Wuyou.

Xu Wuyou said to Chuntao with a serious expression: "Chuntao, I have thought about it and feel that our plan is not appropriate. I have never met you before. If I protect you directly in front of my grandfather, it may arouse suspicion. I have another clever plan."

She took out a small black porcelain bottle from her sleeve, put it in Chuntao's hand, and said gently: "I have a fake death drug here. Tomorrow I want you to take the fake death drug and act out a scene of pointing out Shen's death to make it clear, so that you can get out of this situation."

Chuntao didn't reply, seeming to be worried.

Seeing this, Xu Wuyou comforted her and said, "You just need to follow my instructions. After the matter is completed, I will ensure that you will be rich and prosperous."

"Oh, by the way, there will be some adverse reactions when taking the fake death drug, don't be afraid, it won't really kill you."

"Yes, your servant." Although Chuntao was afraid in her heart, she gritted her teeth and agreed thinking of the Sixth Princess' promise.

However, when Chuntao actually took the so-called "fake death drug", she found that her body was gradually losing strength and her consciousness began to blur.

She only felt that her limbs seemed to be bound by heavy shackles, every inch of her skin became extremely heavy, her head was dizzy, and blood kept flowing out of her mouth.

Only then did Chuntao realize that she had been fooled. It was not a fake death drug at all, but a real poison.

She tried hard to stay awake, wanted to struggle to stand up and tell everyone that she had been deceived, but her body was completely out of control.

She looked at Xu Wuyou with eyes full of regret and despair, hating herself for being stupid enough to believe Xu Wuyou's words.

She desperately raised her hand slowly, trying to point out Xu Wuyou. The hand was trembling, as if carrying her last hope and courage.

When Xu Wuyou saw this, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, fearing that the matter would be exposed.

Just then, a sudden voice was heard, attracting everyone's attention.

"Your Majesty is here!"

Xu Wuchen came hurriedly, followed by several followers, his eyes revealing a hint of majesty and wisdom.

His arrival made the whole scene tense in an instant.

Xu Wuyou's eyes lit up when he heard the voice, and he hurried forward, bowed and said, "Greetings, my brother."

Then the rest of the people also knelt down to welcome Xu Wuchen.

Chuntao also died at this moment. She raised her hand halfway and then dropped it heavily. No one paid any attention to her.

Xu Wuchen walked to Xu Wuyou and helped her up. "No need to be polite."

Then he passed her and came to the crowd, waving his hand and saying, "No need to be polite, everyone."

Everyone stood up after hearing this.

Xu Wuchen stared at Chuntao who was lying on the ground, and Shen who was kneeling on the ground in a miserable and distraught state, and frowned slightly.

"What happened? I heard that Prime Minister Qin was poisoned, so I came to visit him. Judging from the situation, I wonder if the person who poisoned him has been found."

His eyes slowly swept over everyone present, as if waiting for a satisfactory answer.

Xu Wuyou replied, "We found her. The person is Shen. The maidservant beside her committed suicide to prove her determination and pointed out that she was the one who did it, but she refused to admit it and was very arrogant."

Xu Wuchen looked at Shen with displeasure in his eyes, his gaze like a sharp sword: "There is such a thing, how is Prime Minister Qin now? Can you take the antidote?"

Chen, the imperial physician, replied, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Qin has not taken the antidote yet. Prime Minister Qin was poisoned with Fruit Soul Powder. To prepare the antidote, precious medicinal materials are needed. Currently, we lack the thousand-year-old snow ginseng as the lead. If Prime Minister Qin takes the antidote within four hours, he will die."

When Xu Wuchen heard the words "thousand-year-old snow ginseng", his expression changed slightly. The thousand-year-old snow ginseng he bought from a vendor instantly flashed through his mind.

The thousand-year-old snow ginseng was obtained by accident. At that time, he just thought it was precious, so he put it in his pocket. He never thought that it could become Prime Minister Qin's life-saving medicine.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering in his heart whether to take out the snow ginseng.

But soon, he made a decision. Now that his throne was not stable, he still had to rely on Qin Yixian to help him get rid of King Jing'an and Xu Wusheng.

If Qin Yixian died like this, all the previous plans would be in vain.

Moreover, all of Qin Yixian's subordinates obeyed him alone. If he died, he would have no right to control them at all.

"I happen to have a thousand-year-old snow ginseng in my hand. It's in my bedroom. Imperial Physician Chen, please quickly fetch the medicine and prepare an antidote for Prime Minister Qin."

Xu Wuyou's face was gloomy and she clenched her fists. The thing she was worried about still happened.

She really couldn't understand Xu Wuchen's actions. Wouldn't it be better if Qin Yixian died? In this way, he could get rid of his control and no longer be a puppet emperor.

But she couldn't ask the question in front of others, and she didn't want to give the thousand-year-old snow ginseng to Qin Yixian.

"Yes," Imperial Physician Chen responded and left in a hurry.

Xu Wusheng said quickly: "Thousand-year-old snow ginseng is extremely precious. Brother, I will go with Chen the Imperial Physician to get the medicine."

Xu Wuchen didn't think much about Xu Wuyou's sudden departure and agreed, "Okay."

After Xu Wuyou followed Chen Yuyi out of the Prime Minister's Residence, everyone's attention returned to Shen.

Xu Wuchen looked at Shen lying on the ground and asked sternly, "Bold Shen, what else do you have to say?"

His voice was loud and clear, carrying unquestionable majesty and oppression.

At this moment, Shen was like a small boat in a storm, isolated and helpless, and full of despair. Her eyes were empty and her face looked numb as if her heart was dead.

Everyone around her looked at her quietly, waiting for her response. The atmosphere was tense and depressing.

After a moment's silence, she suddenly laughed, and her laughter was filled with endless sadness and helplessness.

"Your Majesty, is it any use for me to say anything now?" Shen's voice was hoarse and tired.

Then she threw it all away like a broken jar, "I was the one who poisoned him, I wish he would die sooner! I hate that he relied on the financial resources of the Shen family and bribed officials everywhere to climb to his current position, but he despised me for having the lowly aura of a merchant, treated me like a piece of trash, and even gave me contraceptives to prevent me from getting pregnant with his child, which made me infertile. Since I can't have children, then other concubines should be treated the same way. I want to make sure he has no children!"

Shen's face was full of grief and indignation, tears welled up in her eyes, and her body was trembling slightly, as if she was telling about the grievances and injustices she had suffered over the years.

Shen Xi recalled the past. She and her childhood sweetheart were in love with each other and should have been married, but she was betrayed by him and had an affair with another woman. The vows they made to each other turned into nothing at that moment.

Feeling disheartened, she met Qin Yixian, who cared for her and pursued her in every way. Gradually, she developed a liking for him and married him.

At that time, she thought she had found new happiness, but she never imagined that this was just the beginning of another tragedy.

Who knew that he became increasingly cold towards her after marrying her? It was not until she accidentally found out that he had given her contraceptive drugs that she saw Qin Yixian's true face.

He is a heartless, ruthless, and extremely vicious hypocrite.

Later she found out that her childhood sweetheart's affair with someone else was a carefully planned plan by Qin Yixian.

After his childhood sweetheart married someone he didn't love, he fell into a quagmire of pain and died in depression.

If Qin Yixian had not used conspiracy and trickery to destroy her happiness, she would have had a happy and fulfilling life.

She will go through every spring, summer, autumn and winter with her childhood sweetheart. She will have children by her side, three meals a day and four seasons to enjoy, and the years will be peaceful.

She smiled sadly with tears in her eyes, "If you obviously don't like me, why do you still want to provoke me and make me lose my love forever."

Suddenly, her face was hideous, and she exuded resentment and hatred: "God, I am willing to curse Qin Yixian with my life, and curse him to be deserted by his friends and relatives, and to die a miserable death!"

Those decisive words were like a thunder, exploding in the air.

The two concubines seemed to be struck by lightning. They stood there with their eyes wide open in horror.

Xu Wuchen frowned slightly when he saw her crazy look, thinking that she was struggling before death.

Just when he was about to open his mouth to scold.

Shen hit her head against the cold rocks, and blood instantly dyed her forehead and cheeks red.

At this moment, there was no endless determination and grief in her eyes, only liberation and relief.

She looked into the distance, her eyes gradually becoming blurred, and at that moment she saw her childhood sweetheart coming to pick her up.

He is still as handsome as he was back then, and his smile is as warm as ever.

He held out his hand to her, as if beckoning her back to the good old days.

The corners of her mouth rose slightly, her body became lighter, and her soul seemed to float towards the distant sky.

Finally closed my eyes.

The two concubines were so shocked at the tragic scene that they were speechless.

The shocking bloodstains and Shen's last words before her death made them feel complicated.

Xu Wuchen and Yan Cheng looked calm, as if they were already accustomed to this kind of scene.
