famous eldest daughter

Chapter 580 Confession
"Thankfully, I clearly had suspicions, but for your sake, I didn't want to investigate the matter thoroughly! I wanted to protect you, but your heart was snatched away by jackals. For your own sake, you actually killed me. As a means to achieve your goal, you are not worthy of my intentions!"

The emperor almost gritted his teeth as he spoke, and the queen was horrified as she listened.

"Fortunately, Concubine Tong was sleepy because she was going to visit Concubine Hui, so she took a nap with her and escaped unharmed. Otherwise, I would have watched my child die early! You really have the heart of a snake!"

Concubine Tong takes a nap at Concubine Hui's place...

When the queen heard this, she felt as if there was a lightning strike.

It turned out that Concubine Tong was taking a nap at Concubine Hui's place. In other words, even if everything went according to her plan today, in the end, as long as Concubine Tong was not present, she would still have failed!

hateful!

A wave of anger sprang up from the queen's heart, and the queen felt blood rushing all over her body. It turned out that she had been tricked from the very beginning!
Under the impact of anger, regardless of her chin being pinched by the emperor, the queen suddenly turned her head and looked directly at Concubine Hui, her eyes full of resentment, "It's you, it's you who framed me. In today's game, it was you who framed me." Palace, deliberately plotting it!"

When Concubine Hui heard this, she calmly smiled at the corner of her mouth and said, "Your Majesty, I have raised my concubine."

What Concubine Hui said was not a lie.

The Queen had indeed wronged her. Although Concubine Hui had been helping Gu Yuqing without any trace from the beginning to the end, she knew nothing about Gu Yuqing's plan and had not even heard of it.

From the time she left the palace to the start of the Queen's banquet, it only took an hour. Gu Yuqing had to go to accompany the Queen Mother. Concubine Hui was simply astonished. How on earth did she manage to arrange all this without leakage.

Qing Hong, who was sent to the Criminal Punishment Department, is it really Gu Yuqing who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal?And this Aunt Wei, did she see everything she said, or was she also bribed by Gu Yuqing... Concubine Hui didn't know any of this.

Whether she knew it or not, in this situation, all she could do was to support Gu Yuqing unconditionally.

The emperor immediately strengthened his hands and said, "Now that things have happened, you still want to fight with others?"

The heartbreaking pain in her jaw spread to her heart, allowing the queen to gain control of her angry mood for a moment, "Your Majesty, I blocked an arrow for Your Majesty in the dense forest. From that moment on, my life has been decided. It no longer belongs to me, it only belongs to the emperor. I have worked so hard for the stability of the emperor's harem, but the emperor would rather believe the words of a few maids than to believe in my character!"

The queen was about to cry, beating her chest and stamping her feet. The look of grief on her eyes was thick and sticky.

When she mentioned the word "dense forest", she could clearly feel her chin, and the emperor's hand froze immediately. The queen knew that she had made the right bet.

Cui Wei has been sent to the Criminal Punishment Department, and the things Cui Wei has done for her can reach the emperor's ears in just a moment. Now all the queen can do is to play the last trump card in her hand.

As the emperor's anger dissipated, it was replaced by old events from that year. The queen continued: "In these years, even if the concubine has done something vicious in the eyes of everyone, it is because, the minister I have a heart that loves Your Majesty! Even my life, I don’t have to give up, what else do I care about! What I do is all for Your Majesty.”

"Good medicine is bitter and honest words are offensive to the ears. There are some things that cannot be exposed to the sun, but I..." In the pain, the queen could hardly speak in pain and gasped for air, "Does Your Majesty think that I am willing to do those things? I am willing to commit evil rather than accumulate good deeds for my descendants? I am also a human being and a woman. How cruel is the strife in the harem. If I had not been more ruthless, I am afraid that the position of the mother of the country would have been held by Concubine Hui long ago! Concubine How can I have the chance to talk to His Majesty here!"

The old love is lingering, and I don’t forget to cling to Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui sneered helplessly in her heart. She knew that as the queen recalled the old incident in the dense forest, no matter what shocking news was sent from the Department of Punishment today, the emperor would probably downplay the punishment of the queen.

Back then, the Queen risked her own life and blocked an arrow for His Majesty. That incident was the deepest, most painful, and untouchable thorn in His Majesty's heart.

"Your Majesty thinks that my concubine has a disgusting appearance and vicious methods. Concubine Hui, who is favored by His Majesty, is innocent. If we investigate carefully, who in this palace has clean hands, and whose hands don't have many lives."

"It's just that my concubine has a hard life and cannot receive His Majesty's love. Your Majesty cannot forgive these things!"

As the queen's words gradually faded, the emperor's hand holding her chin loosened, and the dark blue on her chin was particularly dazzling on her pale face.

Xiao Jingyu stood tightly beside the queen, holding her in her arms with both hands. Even now, Xiao Jingyu still couldn't believe that what happened today was really what the queen said. She stubbornly believed that it must be Gu Yuqing and Concubine Hui who joined forces. Framing the Queen.

But over at the Shenxing Division, she was so emotional just now that she didn't react, but now she has come to her senses.

Over the years, what did Qinghong do for her, and what did Cuiwei do for her mother?

Could it be that today's incident was not investigated clearly, but instead old accounts from the past were uncovered... Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyu's hands and feet felt cold, and her heart was filled with fear.

If I had known earlier, I should have pleaded for Qinghong!
As he was speaking, the chamberlain in front of the emperor pushed open the door and came in. Holding a stack of rice paper in his hand, he walked up to the emperor in a few steps, bowed and handed it over, "Your Majesty, this is from the Division of Punishment. Cuiwei's confession was nothing more than a torture device, so she couldn't bear it anymore and sparsely vomited out everything she knew."

As he said that, the chamberlain glanced at the queen, with hatred in his eyes, but he concealed it calmly.

The emperor took the rice paper, held it in his hand and read through it. As the lines of small regular script fell from his eyes, the emperor's temples were stimulated by the things recorded on it. The emperor's face was turning livid, becoming increasingly cold and condensing, making one breathless.

Especially the queen, who almost collapsed on Xiao Jingyu.

She didn't expect that the punishment department's movements would be so fast. It could be seen that Cui Wei had probably not even survived a single torture instrument!
Turning through the pages one by one, at the end, as his nose relaxed and his breath became heavier, blue veins popped out on the back of his hands. The emperor changed his hand and smashed the rice paper in his hand into the queen's face, "You really have the heart of a snake and a scorpion!"
