Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 64
Yan Cui thought for a while, and said: "Uh, I seem to have heard some Juanpa and other slaves, and I don't know about it. I was worried that they would find out, so I ran back."

Shangguan Wanchun pondered for a moment, then said with a low expression, "Let's go to Fengqing Palace."

But before she could change her clothes, Yan Cui ran over in a panic and shouted in horror: "Miss, it's not good, this servant saw Li Gonggong walking towards this way through the crack of the door, and besides him There is a large group of guards behind them, they all hold knives and halberds in their hands, and they look very ferocious."

Shangguan Wanchun frowned, she didn't expect to come so soon, it seems that her guess was correct, the incident of the princess being poisoned is probably related to her, to be exact, she was used and framed by someone with a heart, but she still didn't know it, No wonder her eyelids are twitching today, that's why.

I saw Shangguan Wanchun sitting back on the chair, but before she could regain her mind, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door, adding a bit of timbre to this quiet courtyard, and a cold and solemn air was in the air. Spread little by little.

Shangguan Wanchun sat on the chair calmly, with clear eyes, said calmly: "Yan Cui, open the door."

The door was slowly opened by Yan Cui, but the warm winter sun slanted into the room the moment the door was opened, and a ray of sunlight also floated onto Shangguan Wanchun's pale pink dress. Look, indescribably calm and ethereal.

"You wait here." Eunuch Li said to the guard behind him with squinting eyes.

"Yes."

Saying that, Eunuch Li raised his legs and stepped into the door.

"This old slave sees Princess Chaohua, Princess Qiansui." Eunuch Li saluted respectfully as usual, as if nothing had happened.

"Eunuch Li is exempt from courtesy. I wonder what Eunuch Li is going to do today?" Shangguan Wanchun asked coldly, feeling no emotion in her tone.

Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face, which is really extraordinary!Seeing Shangguan Wanchun's calm expression, Eunuch Li said in admiration.

"Princess Chaohua, this old servant has come to invite Princess Chaohua to Fengqing Palace according to the emperor's order." Eunuch Li said with his head bowed.

"Does Eunuch Li know what the so-called matter is?"

"This, I don't know." Eunuch Li thought for a while and said.

"Okay, let's go." Shangguan Wanchun said with a smile, parting her red lips lightly.

"Princess Chaohua, please!" said Eunuch Li as a gesture of invitation.

Shangguan Wanchun was also unceremonious and walked in front.

However, as soon as Shangguan Wanchun walked out of the room, he saw soldiers on both sides of the separation, and their sharp spikes appeared in their hands, pointing directly at Shangguan Wanchun.

Shangguan Wanchun frowned, her face turned blue, she stopped, turned around and asked sharply: "Eunuch Li, what do you mean?" Her tone was full of coldness.

Eunuch Li did not expect that the soldiers outside the gate would be so bold that they dared to face Princess Chaohua with swords. What surprised him even more was that you, the weak and weak daughter of the prime minister who was rumored to be weak, would have such a cold side. His body trembled unconsciously.

"Put it down!" Eunuch Li scolded, and after seeing them put down their swords, Eunuch Li said with a pleasant smile, "Princess, please."

Shangguan Wanchun didn't want to be troublesome, so she snorted coldly and walked forward.

Along the way, Shangguan Wanchun felt a little uneasy in her heart. She always felt that things were not as simple as they appeared on the surface. After all, she was also a princess conferred by the emperor. Without evidence, these soldiers would never dare to stab her. Rong meet, unless.Shangguan Wanchun narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes were sharp and spirited, yes, unless someone instructed them, if they gave them ten guts, they would not dare to do anything to the princess, then this person would definitely not be the emperor, The only possibility is the queen, yes, it is her!

Fengqing Palace.

As soon as she entered Fengqing Palace, Shangguan Wanchun felt a cold air, and a kind of deep-rooted coolness surged into her heart.

"Zhaohua pays homage to the emperor, the empress, all blessings, the emperor, and the empress!" As soon as Shangguan Wanchun entered the door, she saw the queen sitting by the bed and the emperor sitting by the table, and she couldn't help saluting respectfully.

"Zhaohua, are you convicted of a crime?" Before the emperor could speak, the empress said preemptively.In fact, the moment Shangguan Wanchun stepped into the door, the emperor's heart was shocked!It's so similar, her cold eyes and calm expression are exactly the same as hers, even the slight doubt in the depths of the eyes is not bad at all, he looks a little absent-minded!This angered the empress even more, and then she shouted sharply.

"Reporting to Empress Empress, Chaohua doesn't know." Shangguan Wanchun said very well, looking at the Queen's eyes that could kill people, then asked back: "I don't know what crime Chaohua has committed?"

Her eyes are calm, neither frightened nor afraid, very calm.

She, with a fierce look in her eyes, was trembling with anger.

"you!"

"Okay." The emperor waved his hand and said impatiently.

"Zhaohua, look at the handkerchief on the table, is it you who gave it to Princess Min?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, exuding a domineering arrogance all over his body.

Shangguan Wanchun looked at the table and saw the handkerchief lying quietly on the tray, then raised her head and said without changing expression: "Your Majesty, this is indeed given to Princess Min by Zhaohua."

"En." The emperor nodded lightly.

"That means you admit that you poisoned it?" The empress asked aggressively, not letting go of any chance.

"Empress, although this handkerchief was given by Zhaohua, Zhaohua definitely did not poison it." Shangguan Wanchun said calmly.

Sure enough, someone wanted to frame him, but who could this person be?No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't remember who she had offended?
The queen smiled instead of anger, and said provocatively: "Why, do you have the guts to admit it?"

"Empress, may I ask, if it were you, would you tamper with the gifts you give to others? In this way, will it be obvious to the world that you did it? Is there anyone who would be so stupid as this?" Where is it?"

Shangguan Wanchun's words angered the Empress once again, she could no longer maintain her composure, and she yelled at the guards: "Come on, take Princess Chaohua down!"

"Slow down!" Seeing the guards coming forward, the emperor immediately stopped him. He looked at the queen with a dark face, and reproachfully said, "I'm afraid it's my decision here, queen!"

The emperor's words pierced her heart fiercely like a knife blade, and the blood flowed continuously.

"Zhaohua, what you said is also reasonable, so you didn't inflict the poison?" The emperor asked after a moment of thought.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Zhaohua has no reason to harm Princess Min. Zhaohua came to the palace thanks to the emperor's favor, and Zhaohua will soon marry Shanghuang Kingdom. Zhaohua really can't find a reason to do so." Shangguan Wanchun said lightly, her clear eyes were full of indifference.

Shangguan Wanchun's answer made the emperor's already livid face even darker.

The empress saw that the emperor was lost in thought again, and this time his face showed a look of intolerance, she couldn't help but said hastily: "Your majesty, don't listen to her one-sided words, you know, she has urinated with the new champion Lang of the dynasty since childhood." She was a childhood sweetheart, but now she has become the son-in-law, how could she not hold a grudge?"

His eyes looked towards the empress with ice-like eyes, which was frighteningly cold.

"Emperor, Your Majesty." The empress swallowed and stammered.She said in her heart that she was not afraid, but it was a lie.

"You all step back." The emperor gave the empress a deep look, and then said to the guards standing in the room.

"Yes."

At this moment, a cry came from the bed, and Yu Haoxi, who had already fallen asleep, woke up at this time, and shouted delicately: "Mother, Xi'er is a little uncomfortable!"

I saw her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were tangled together due to physical discomfort, and her eyes were slightly closed.

"Xi'er, the queen mother is here." The queen held Yu Haoxi's palm distressedly and said with a sob.

"Father, you are here too." Yu Haoxi opened his eyes and saw the emperor sitting on the side, and said with a smile.

"Xi'er, don't move." The emperor said with concern.

Yu Haoxi seemed to feel the strange atmosphere in the room, rolled his eyes, and looked at other places in the room.

"Sister Zhaohua, you're here too." Yu Haoxi said in surprise when he saw Shangguan Wanchun standing not far away.

Shangguan Wanchun smiled faintly at her, and asked with concern: "Sister Xi'er, are you okay?"

"Hmph, hypocrisy." The empress snorted coldly. Seeing her daughter calling Shangguan Wanchun sister Chaohua so innocently, the empress felt very uncomfortable. She is not blessed to have such a good daughter. She said to Yu Haoxi: "Xi'er, you are regarded as an older sister, but you have to be treated like a younger sister. This is the first time I have seen an older sister who poisoned my younger sister like this?"

"Queen!" The emperor snapped.

Yu Haoxi looked at everyone with a confused face, and after she realized it, she hurriedly pleaded for Shangguan Wanchun: "Father, mother, sister Zhaohua will never poison Xier, sister Zhaohua loves Xier very much. Yes, look, sister Zhaohua gave that handkerchief to Xi'er?" Yu Haoxi said, pointing to the handkerchief on the table.

Shangguan Wanchun frowned. The seemingly weak Yu Haoxi in front of her made her a little confused. If she remembered correctly, she severely punished a servant just yesterday. She absolutely couldn't understand the bloody scene. I can't believe that Yu Haoxi would be so kind.

"Xi'er, why are you pleading for her?" The empress looked at her in disbelief and said, then looked at Shangguan Wanchun viciously, as if Shangguan Wanchun had snatched her daughter away.

For a moment, the whole room fell into silence, as if even the silver needle could be heard clearly when it fell to the ground.

"Father?" Yu Haoxi shouted again.Although the pain on her face was mixed with anxiety, her heart was full of resentment. She never thought that her father would defend the prime minister's daughter so much, and he didn't care about the life or death of her own daughter. In the current situation, She had to do it.

Yu Haoxi wanted to say something else, but was stopped by the emperor, who only heard the emperor say: "Come here, send Princess Chaohua back to Chonghua Palace. Without my permission, no one is allowed to step into Chonghua Palace. Princess Zhaohua is not allowed to leave the Chonghua Palace until the truth is revealed."

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, several soldiers rushed in from outside the door, surrounded Princess Chaohua, and said respectfully: "Princess Chaohua, please."

Shangguan Wanchun didn't say anything more, she saluted the emperor and queen lightly, and then walked out.

The emperor just looked at Shangguan Wanchun's leaving back without fear, even he himself didn't realize that there was a trace of pain in the depths of his eyes.

Looking at the expression on his face, the queen couldn't help clenching her fists tightly.

Yu Haoxi had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two of them. She felt sorry for her mother and hated Shangguan Wanchun who had left, so she said weakly, "Father."

Seeing the worried look in Yu Haoxi's eyes, he thought she was feeling sorry for Zhaohua, so he gently patted the back of Yu Haoxi's hand, and said softly: "Don't worry, Xi'er, Emperor Father will definitely take this If this matter is investigated clearly, neither a good person will be wronged, nor a bad person will be spared, Xi'er just needs to take good care of her health."
