Chapter 317 I dare not think about it any further
Sun Changzai looked up and saw that the concubine who had just spoken was Han Guiren. A deep disgust immediately appeared in her eyes!
This scholar thought that by squeezing her out, he could replace her? Dream on!
With Sister Roupin around, she will be fine!
Shen Zhinian looked at Concubine De and asked in surprise, "It has not yet been confirmed that the makeup on the drum was really stained by Concubine Sun. Why is Concubine De so anxious to excuse Concubine Sun?"
Only then did everyone react.
Yes! The words of Concubine De just now seemed to be a plea for Concubine Sun, but in fact, she quietly confirmed her guilt!
Thinking about how Concubine De pretended to be crazy and stupid and successfully gave birth to the third prince in secret, everyone was afraid of her cunning again!
Even Nangong Xuanyu's eyes when looking at Concubine De had become a little duller.
Concubine De was not panicked, and said gently, "I just feel that it's not a big deal anyway, and I don't want to disturb the peace of the harem. It's better to make a big thing small, and a small thing nothing."
Jiang Wange had always regretted not seizing the opportunity to get rid of Shen Zhinian at the last celebration banquet. At this moment, she certainly would not let go of such a godsend opportunity!
"How does this work?"
"Today is the Third Prince's full moon. On such an important day, someone dared to attack him. This is too evil! This is simply not taking His Majesty seriously!"
"Besides, today it's just some cosmetics. Although it's not a big deal, if we don't severely punish the perpetrators and make an example of them, who knows what will happen tomorrow?"
"For the healthy growth of the Third Prince and for the peace of the harem, I feel that this matter must be thoroughly investigated!"
The concubines who were attached to the Zhenguo Mansion would naturally attack wherever Jiang Wange pointed at them: "What Empress Wen said is absolutely right!"
"Plotting to murder the prince is a capital crime punishable by execution of the entire family. How can it be let off so lightly?!"
Another person echoed the sentiment, "Actually... I think this might just be a misunderstanding. After all, Concubine Sun has no princes, and she has no grudges against Concubine De and the Third Prince. Why would she go to such great lengths to harm the Third Prince?"
As soon as this person finished speaking, many people looked at Shen Zhinian with meaningful eyes.
Concubine Sun has no prince, but Concubine Rou is pregnant!
Everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Sun has always been on good terms with her and is the most loyal dog under her!
How do we know that it wasn't Concubine Rou who instructed Concubine Sun to attack the Third Prince?
As expected, a sneer flashed across Shen Zhinian's eyes.
Although Sun Changzai was quite favored, she had no family background, no offspring, and a low position, so it was not worth the effort of those who were interested to plot against her. This matter was indeed directed at her!
Shen Zhinian was not in a hurry to defend himself.
Because no one has openly said that she was the murderer of the third prince. She jumped out in a hurry, isn't it a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt?
And she also wanted to know who else would be involved!
Concubine Liu actually hoped that the third prince was really dead.
In this way, Yun'er will be His Majesty's only child again, and His Majesty's attention will not be diverted by the bitch Defei!
Moreover, Concubine Zhou has been pregnant for almost six months. If she can give birth to a prince, she will have a son in the future, so she naturally hopes to have one less competitor!
It’s a pity that the person who did it was not brave enough. What’s the point of getting some non-toxic cosmetics?
Concubine Liu felt that if Concubine Rou took action, she would definitely kill the Third Prince in one fell swoop!
Either this matter was acted by Concubine Sun on her own initiative, or someone wanted to frame Concubine Sun and drag Concubine Rou into the trouble.
Concubine Liu always believed that a knife that was not easy to use would just break! So when Shen Zhinian faced danger many times in the past, she chose to stand aside and watch.
However, if Shen Zhinian hadn't found the real culprit at the last celebration banquet, the blame would have fallen on her.
Concubine Liu remembered this favor and did not want to disappoint the other people who followed her. Otherwise, if she ran into trouble again in the future, who would be willing to risk their lives for her?
Another reason is that as long as it can make the bitch Concubine Wen unhappy, Concubine Liu is willing to do anything!
She glanced at Jiang Wange and said sarcastically, "How come I don't know when His Majesty gave Concubine Wen the power to assist in managing the six palaces? I and Concubine Rou haven't said anything yet, but Concubine Wen is dancing happily here!"
According to palace rules, those who overstep their authority will be punished!
Jiang Wange subconsciously looked at Nangong Xuanyu.
Seeing that the other person was still looking at her with a gentle gaze, and even a hint of doting, Jiang Wange instantly felt more confident!
This Imperial Concubine Liu, how could I ever get away with it when I confront her? Why doesn't she learn her lesson? How stupid!
"I am only concerned about the Third Prince, so I just want to find the murderer who killed him. Why is your Majesty making such a fuss?"
"Have you ignored the safety of the Third Prince just to target me?"
Concubine Liu had been arrogant for most of her life, and all the losses she suffered were caused by Jiang Wange. Although her aunt repeatedly told her to hold back her anger, at this moment, her bright peach blossom eyes still couldn't control the rage burning in them!
"His Majesty?!"
Even if Your Majesty wants to praise the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, you can't just watch Concubine Wen ride on her head, right? !
Doesn't His Majesty care about her feelings at all...
The emperor said calmly, "It's inevitable that Concubine Wen is young and has a bit of a whimsical temper. Besides, she has good intentions, so why should you bother with her, Concubine?"
Hearing this, Jiang Wange straightened her back even more and looked at Concubine Liu provocatively!
People who are favored are fearless!
Even though she knew the emperor was acting, Concubine Liu's heart still felt an uncontrollable pain.
At the same time, she couldn't help but feel a sense of uneasiness and doubt deep in her heart...
If her aunt had not told her the truth, she would have always believed that His Majesty truly loved Concubine Wen.
Everyone in the palace, including Concubine Wen herself, was deceived by His Majesty. It turns out that a man can really pretend to love someone.
So how sincere was His Majesty's love for her in the past?
Concubine Liu didn't dare to think about it any further...
Finally, the imperial physician reported: "Your Majesty and Consort De, the Third Prince has stopped crying. And because it was discovered early, the powder on the drum did not cause any harm to him."
"It's just... maybe it's because when Concubine De was pregnant with the Third Prince, she lived in a bad environment and didn't get enough nutrients, which caused the Third Prince to be born weak. You must pay attention to similar situations in the future!"
Concubine De held the handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, with a hint of guilt on her gentle and beautiful face: "It's all my fault... It's my fault that I didn't give the Third Prince a strong body. I owe him..."
Although Defei pretended to be crazy and stupid and hid in the most remote Gyeongbokgung Palace, it was because the second prince died young, which made her afraid and she took this desperate measure.
