Chapter 1049: Finding the Aphrodisiac (170 million votes plus additional content)
"Princess Qingyang, I admit that you are indeed quite clever, but it's a pity that you don't use it in the right way."
"If Minister Gu was drugged and flirted with you, then once the matter is exposed, in order to preserve your reputation and to prevent a scandal in the royal family, His Majesty will definitely grant you a marriage."
"But if you do this, both you and Minister Gu will be criticized."
"Others would say that Minister Gu's usual cheerful and cheerful appearance is just an act, and that he is actually a lecher."
"Or you might say that you were attracted to Minister Gu but couldn't get him, so you arranged this drama yourself."
"You are a princess of the royal family, and your reputation cannot be tarnished. And you love Minister Gu deeply, so naturally you don't want to ruin his reputation."
"Besides, aphrodisiacs appeared for no reason at the Fourth Prince's first birthday ceremony. They will definitely be thoroughly investigated! By then, your actions will most likely be exposed."
"Then... someone needs to take the blame for this matter!"
Shen Zhinian didn't notice that when she said that Princess Qingyang was fond of Gu Jinxiao, the man in the scarlet official robe, sitting upright on the chair, lowered his eyes, hiding all the emotions in his eyes.
He didn't care who liked him, and he never took them to heart...
Shen Zhinian ignored Princess Qingyang's increasingly pale and guilty look and continued, "It is precisely because you and Princess Yun'an are sisters who grew up together, so you know her well enough to know that after Minister Gu leaves, she will definitely follow him."
"At that time, Minister Gu's medicine was taking effect, and Princess Yun'an fell in love with him. She was alone with Minister Gu at this time, and no one knew what would happen..."
"And you only need to show up in time and be flirted with by Minister Gu when you save Princess Yun'an, and your goal will be achieved."
"Everyone knows that Minister Gu is a self-disciplined and polite gentleman, and he would definitely not do such a vulgar thing. Princess Yun'an not only cares about him, but also has a reckless and impulsive personality."
"Once people know that Minister Gu was drugged, they will just think that Princess Yun'an resorted to such dirty tricks in order to marry Minister Gu."
"And you, Princess Qingyang, got involved with Minister Gu by mistake without knowing it. Given his personality, he will be responsible for you regardless of whether he has feelings for you or not."
"Not only will you be able to fulfill your wish, but you will also be the perfect victim. All the infamy and scorn will only fall on Princess Yun'an."
At this point, Shen Zhinian looked at Princess Qingyang with a half-smile, her eyes seemed to be able to see through everything: "I wonder if what I said is right?"
Princess Qingyang's body went limp, and she felt cold all over!
At this moment, her eyes were filled with fear when she looked at Shen Zhinian.
Concubine Chen knows everything!
How could she figure out the whole story from such a small clue? !
This woman is horrible! So horrible!
Princess Yun'an's eyes were filled with astonishment. She looked at Princess Qingyang and asked in disbelief, "Fourth sister, do you really think so?!"
Princess Qingyang suddenly came to her senses.
Concubine Chen has all the power in the palace.
The emperor's brother also obeyed Concubine Chen's words.
The only one who can help her now is her third sister.
Thinking of this, Princess Qingyang tightly grasped Princess Yun'an's arm and cried pitifully: "I didn't! I really didn't! Third sister, please believe me! Wuuwuwu..."
"If even you don't believe me, then I really can't prove my innocence. I might as well... I might as well die to prove my integrity!"
Princess Qingyang said this, gritted her teeth, and suddenly crashed into the pillar next to her!
Princess Yun'an was right next to her. How could she really let Princess Qingyang be hit to death? She immediately grabbed her tightly.
Princess Yun'an originally had some doubts in her heart, but when she saw Princess Qingyang, who was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't live, the balance in her heart suddenly tilted.
How could she not trust the sister she had watched grow up, and instead trust the scheming Concubine Chen?
Thinking of this, Princess Yun'an pulled Princess Qingyang tightly, raised her eyes to look at Shen Zhinian, gritted her teeth and said: "Noble Concubine Chen, stop talking nonsense here, I will never believe your words of sowing discord!"
"Qingyang and I are sisters. Do you think you can separate us with just a few words?!"
"Or do you have to force Qingyang to death today to feel at ease? What grudge does she have against you?!"
Princess Qingyang buried her head in Princess Yun'an's shoulder, with a hint of pride in her eyes.
Even if Concubine Chen predicted everything, would the third sister believe her?
Shen Zhinian looked down at Princess Yun'an and said bluntly, "You're an idiot who's still counting money for others after being sold out!"
Princess Yun An was furious: "...You!"
Without waiting for her to continue, Shen Zhinian said, "I am really troubled by your stupidity!"
"You are so protective of your good third sister, why don't you search yourself first?"
"Perhaps Princess Qingyang hasn't found a chance to destroy the evidence yet?"
Hearing this, Princess Qingyang's body suddenly stiffened, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes...
Princess Yun'an gently let her go and began to feel around on her body with a half-believing and half-doubting look: "What on my body could there be..."
Before she finished her sentence, Princess Yun An was slightly stunned, slowly took out a paper bag from her sleeve, and frowned instantly: "What is it?"
The moment she saw the paper bag, the last glimmer of hope in Princess Qingyang's heart disappeared without a trace, leaving only deep resentment!
why? !
Today's incident clearly had nothing to do with Concubine Chen, so why did she keep ruining her plans? !
While they were confronting each other, Shen Zhinian had already asked Xia Feng to go to the Imperial Hospital and invite Tang Luochuan over.
Receiving Shen Zhinian's eye signal, Tang Luochuan immediately stepped forward and took the paper bag from Princess Yun'an for inspection.
Soon, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, and Concubine Chen, the powder in this paper bag is the aphrodisiac, and the ingredients are the same as what I found in the wine glass used by Minister Gu just now."
Shen Zhinian looked at Princess Yun'an sarcastically and said, "Guess what, if I hadn't seen through this matter today, and everything had gone on as planned...when someone found aphrodisiacs on you, could you still explain it clearly?"
Princess Yun'an shook her head repeatedly: "The fact that Minister Gu was drugged has nothing to do with me. How could this package appear on me?!"
Shen Zhinian sneered: "I, or my people, have never been close to you from beginning to end. Princess Yun'an is not going to say that I framed you, right?"
