Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss

Chapter 128 The Emperor is unwilling to pursue the matter

Chu Qianyu was startled by Mo Yinan's sudden tenderness. She moved back and pretended to be a little shy and said, "I can get up by myself, so I won't bother you, Your Majesty."

"It's okay. You've just been detoxified, so your body must be very weak. Sit up for a while." After saying that, he gently grasped her arm, pulled her up with a little force, and carefully helped her sit on the chair.

"Thank you." Chu Qianyu said with a blush.

Leng Qingzhou, who was checking Concubine De's pulse, paused for a moment, but felt jealous inside.

My mind had already been on the two of them.

Seeing that Leng Qingzhou looked strange, Concubine De asked with some concern, "Doctor Leng, is this poison difficult to remove?"

"Ah? It's okay, it's okay. Wait a moment. I've detected more than one kind of poison in your body. Let me take another look." Leng Qingzhou felt that his brain couldn't keep up with the flow. His mind was full of the affectionate scene between the two of them just now. Mo Yinan must have done this on purpose.

After a while, Leng Qingzhou pulled his hand back and said slowly, "You do have signs of poisoning in your body. I am still not sure after taking your pulse, so I have to ask you again, do you occasionally have signs of being unconscious, or even fainting if you are not careful? Do you sometimes feel anxious, chest tightness, cold and numb hands and feet?"

When Concubine De heard this, her eyes were filled with shock. This guy was truly amazing, as he could actually guess it right.

So he nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, that's right. I wonder if Doctor Leng can tell what poison I was poisoned by?"

"In that case, I am sure that someone has been putting a small amount of Luohui in your diet for a long time. If a person takes a small amount of this poison, they will have symptoms like you. The longer the time, the more serious your body will be. And just now, I found that you seem to have used something very cold, but it must have been a long time ago, so you have never been pregnant. Am I right?"

After hearing this, Concubine De nodded her head like pounding garlic, her eyes instantly gleaming with a little light as she said, "You are right, you are worthy of being the disciple of Doctor Yue."

Then he asked cautiously, "Does Doctor Leng have a way to cure this poison?"

Leng Qingzhou shook his head and said, "I can only diagnose it, but I don't have a solution. If Doctor Yue was here, maybe there would be a way."

Concubine De was visibly disappointed. She had been secretly poisoned by the Queen for so many years, and it was not so easy to cleanse the poison. I was just overthinking it.

But when the emperor heard that she had not been able to conceive in these years because she had taken very cold substances a long time ago, he wanted to ask her about it, but when he saw so many people present, he gave up the idea and thought it would not be too late to ask later when there were only the two of them.

"Do you have any evidence for what you just said, Concubine De?" The emperor asked in a stern voice.

These words shocked the queen.

Concubine De turned to look at the Emperor. She was not sure whether she was sad because she just found out that there was no hope, or because of the things she had experienced over the years, her tears immediately flowed down like a broken string. She looked at the Emperor with tears in her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress arranged for someone to give me this poison. And Qinglian, who serves me, is the Empress's man."

"She has long been instructed by the Queen to poison me. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to Qinglian's bedroom and find clues."

"Zhang Fu, take your men to Concubine De's palace to check immediately." said the emperor.

Without waiting for Zhang Fu to leave, Qinglian knelt down and looked at Concubine De, full of disappointment and disbelief, saying: "Master, I have always treated you sincerely and taken care of you with all my heart. Why do you distrust me and even frame the Queen?"

"You said that I framed the Queen! Hahaha. That's really funny. You know what you have done over the years!"

Zhang Fu was not afraid to search Qinglian. There was no poison or evidence that the Queen had assigned her in her room. Moreover, the poison was only taken once in a while, so she was not worried at all about what Zhang Fu would find.

"Master, I believe Zhang Fu will prove my innocence when he returns. There are some things I have never done."

After Qinglian finished speaking, she kowtowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I have never betrayed Concubine De."

"Let's wait until Zhang Fu comes back."

But no one noticed the smile that flashed across Concubine De's lips. She naturally didn't leave any handle. She had been defeated by the Queen for so many years, and did they really think that she hadn't made any progress?

The hall suddenly became quiet. The emperor sat aside with a gloomy face. The queen didn't dare to say a word for fear of saying too much or saying something wrong. She believed that she always did things cleanly and didn't leave any evidence.

Concubine De was just making a last-ditch effort. It seems that now that the matter is settled, it’s time to let her go early.

Yunying felt distressed and looked at Concubine De. After all, she had suffered a lot over the years.

Chu Qianyu lowered her head and thought about what to do if Zhang Fu really didn't find anything. In short, the Queen must be dragged into the water today, at least to make sure the Queen Mother was without the Queen's help.

As for the Queen Mother and the five elders, they will be dealt with later.

Mo Yinan was thinking about how to use today's incident to let the emperor and the queen mother know that he was not as easy to manipulate as he was two years ago. Otherwise, they would always test his bottom line again and again, and he would blame himself for being too kind and giving them the wrong impression.

Everyone has different ideas and is thinking about his own things.

Time flies by.

Finally, Zhang Fu came back with his men, holding a box in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, it is indeed as Concubine De said. We found this box in Qinglian's bedroom. There is a bracelet inside. When I opened it, I found a small amount of powder inside."

"Ask Doctor Leng to see if it is Luo Hui." said the Emperor.

Leng Qingzhou took it, picked it up with his hands, examined it and said, "Your Majesty, it is Luo Hui."

Qinglian looked at the bracelet and shook her head, "No, Your Majesty, this was not placed there by me. This bracelet was given to me by Concubine De not long ago. I didn't know that this bracelet could be opened."

"Humph! So what you mean is that I have been poisoning myself over the past few years?" Defei said sternly.

The emperor had a gloomy face, holding a teacup in his hand and looking at Aunt Song and Qinglian who were kneeling on the ground. Then he turned to the queen and asked, "What do you think, Queen?"

The queen was still thinking about what happened to the bracelet when she suddenly heard the emperor calling her. She quickly came to her senses and said, "If it is true as Concubine De said, this maid really poisoned the master. She must be severely punished."

"Yes, the Queen is right." The Emperor said this lightly, and Concubine De's heart instantly sank.

The emperor looked at Qinglian and asked, "Why do you want to harm Concubine De? Is there someone behind this?"

Qinglian knew that she would not be able to escape this time, so she closed her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I was dissatisfied with Concubine De, so I had the idea of ​​harming her. There was no one behind me, I did it all by myself."

"Well, in that case, let him be executed together with Aunt Song. Someone, take him away!" The emperor said in a heavy voice with a dignified look on his face.

"Your Majesty! She..." Defei was still somewhat unwilling to say that Qinglian was not the only one who did it, but she was instantly frightened by the emperor's sullen expression as he looked at her, and she dared not say another word.
