Finally, it was queen Xue who saved her, but it was the last sentence she wanted to hear, "Princess Hui, do you know the crime?"

Huifei raised her head, a blank face, "empress, this is so strange, what's the crime?"

Queen Xue sneered, "if you want to be unknown, unless you don't do it yourself, you use peach blossom fog to build this palace. Do you think it can be perfect?"

Huifei was surprised, "why did you say that? Since I was pitied by the emperor, I've always kept my peace. I've never done anything more than half of it. Why did the empress give me such a big charge as soon as she opened her mouth? Although my concubines are very modest, if the emperor is here, I can't help her spitting out blood. "

Women who have been trained to the level of huifei have long been able to keep their face and heart from beating when they lie. They are eloquent and impassioned. Such people can hardly expose their guilty feelings through their eyes or facial expressions.

"Is it bloody or is it true?" Queen Xue pressed step by step, "huifei knows it."

"Your majesty Regardless of her physical discomfort, Princess Hui knelt down for two steps and vowed, "who is my concubine? You are clear. My concubine has always been respectful to the empress. She is careful in her words and deeds. She never fails to be absent. She always carries out her will to the letter. I don't know where she offends her, but she is charged with such a crime? I beg your majesty to return my concubine's innocence. "

The emperor also thinks that huifei is the most suspect. After all, not everyone has the courage to assassinate the queen, but everything has to pay attention to the evidence. With a cold hum, "I will find out if you are innocent."

"Your Majesty is holy." Huifei sobbed, and looked at the queen, indignant way: "empress, if you have any dissatisfaction with my concubine, just speak up, such unnecessary charges, I can't afford."

To be fair, the Emperor didn't want to be wronged. He called Li Gonggong, "how's the investigation going?"

Li Gonggong said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the slave has been arranged. He is trying his best to trace the source of the peach blossom fog."

Peach blossom fog is made with precious medicinal materials and secret recipes, and it is also forbidden. If you want to trace its source, it will take a lot of time, and it is not too difficult.

Huifei's ears are sharp. When she hears what father-in-law Li said, she secretly congratulates herself. Fortunately, she makes a quick decision to kill old lady Hu in front of father-in-law Li, otherwise she will be in endless trouble.

When Queen Xue saw huifei's faint smile, she said, "you deny the peach blossom fog. Don't think we can't find any evidence."

"Since there is evidence, the empress will take it out." If Xue Wanzhao wants to use the emperor's authority to cheat her, she will be too naive. She won't recognize it even if she kills her.

Huifei raised her head and said: "although I am not as noble as the empress, I am also a person who has served your majesty for many years. Today, my empress has no basis to slander me. I'm just wronged. But I'm not afraid to pass it on and hurt your Majesty's face if I act recklessly and rely on my identity as the head of the middle palace."

Huifei's words made her blood boil. Her eyes were full of grief and indignation, and her heart was full of consideration for her majesty. It was really moving. Even the emperor's heart was a little loose. If it was not huifei, would it not have wronged her?

However, although huifei had the upper hand for the time being, I'm afraid she had other evidence in her hand based on her understanding of Xue Wanzhao. She was not careless. She just begged repeatedly and said plaintively, "please your majesty make the decision for me."
