Chapter 1068: Concubine Chun’s True Purpose
"You just said that no matter who poisoned me, you would stand up for me and our child..."
"Now it only involves the eunuchs around Concubine Chen, are you just going to sit back and do nothing? Wuwuwu..."
"Your Majesty, I beg you to find out the truth of this matter and give me and my child justice!"
"If not, I will be walking on thin ice in the harem..."
Because she was too excited, cold sweat broke out on Chun Guiren's forehead. She covered her stomach with both hands and frowned in pain.
Yingxiang was startled: "My lady, Doctor Qiao said that you can't get too emotional!"
Doctor Qiao immediately stepped forward and gave Concubine Chun acupuncture: "Concubine Chun, calm down! You must calm down!"
"Otherwise, no matter how good my medical skills are, I won't be able to save the heir to the throne..."
Seeing this scene, everyone's face changed.
Has His Majesty's favor for Concubine Chen reached this point? He even disregarded the safety of Concubine Chun and the heir to the throne...
No one wants to do anything to Concubine Chen, they just want to interrogate Xiao Mingzi!
Shen Zhinian knew clearly that Nangong Xuanyu cared about her, but would not care about the life or death of a eunuch.
If Concubine Chun continues to pretend, I'm afraid Xiao Mingzi will really have to suffer in the Ministry of Punishment.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to argue for a moment."
After Shen Zhinian said this to Nangong Xuanyu, he looked at Concubine Chun and said coldly, "You insisted on having Xiao Mingzi taken to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation. Do you want to find out the truth about the murder, or do you want to cut off my arm? No one knows better than you!"
Concubine Chun said subconsciously: "The Concubine Chen is trying to add insult to injury..."
Shen Zhinian didn't give her a chance to argue and interrupted her directly: "To harm someone in the palace, you need a reason, right?"
"Since Concubine Chun keeps saying that it was me who asked Xiao Mingzi to instruct Xing'er to poison you, what good will this do for me?"
Concubine Chun touched her belly and said, "Of course it's because I'm pregnant. Concubine Chen can't tolerate me, or this child."
"joke!"
A hint of sharpness flashed in Shen Zhinian's eyes: "Not to mention that you are still pregnant, no one knows whether you are carrying a prince or a princess."
"Even if he is a prince, he has foreign blood and will not pose a threat to me if he is born."
"If that's the case, why should I be afraid of him? Why should I be so afraid of him that I can't wait to get rid of you and your son?"
Xuanpin followed up and said, "That's right!"
"Everyone knows how much His Majesty dotes on the Fourth Prince. Is Concubine Chen so afraid of a pregnant noble like you that she is willing to do anything to get rid of you?"
The others also went back to the future and couldn't help but nod.
Although there is no mother who does not want her son to ascend to that position, the child that Concubine Chun was pregnant with lost the qualification to compete from the very beginning.
Why did Concubine Chen have to attack her and dirty her own hands?
Concubine Chun's reason is totally untenable.
What they could all figure out, Concubine Chun naturally knew as well.
Given His Majesty's favor towards Concubine Chen, she never expected to be able to overthrow Concubine Chen with this incident.
Before His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin was placed under house arrest, he analyzed the situation in the harem with her.
Now, His Majesty values the Shen family, Concubine Chen is favored in the palace, and the Fourth Prince is even more favored by His Majesty.
If nothing unexpected happens, His Majesty must have already considered Concubine Chen as the next queen.
Once the Fourth Prince becomes the Empress' legitimate son, is he far from being named the Crown Prince?
A country will be much more stable if it has a queen and a crown prince, and it will be difficult for His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin to cause chaos again.
Therefore, her most important task is to stop Concubine Chen from ascending to that position at all costs and to make the water as muddy as possible!
In Concubine Chun's plan, Xing'er was the first to frame Xiao Mingzi.
As long as Xiao Mingzi was dragged to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation, even if he was eventually proven innocent, he would be crippled and Concubine Chen would lose an arm.
Soon after, His Majesty's men will search Zhongcui Palace for the snow silkworm shells that she had already ordered people to hide.
By then, there will be witnesses and evidence, and Concubine Chen will not be able to explain herself even if she has ten thousand mouths!
Even if everyone thinks that Concubine Chen has no reason to attack her, the evidence is here.
Anyway, Concubine Chun’s real purpose was not to get rid of Shen Zhinian, but to tarnish the other party’s reputation.
Once she was suspected of murdering the heir to the throne, Concubine Chen would not be able to be named Imperial Concubine, let alone ascend to the position of Queen. Her plan with His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin would be successfully completed!
Therefore, one cannot blame Concubine Chen for being cruel and ruthless. If anyone should be blamed, one can only blame Concubine Chen and the Fourth Prince for blocking the way of His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin!
If anyone were to stand in Concubine Chen's position, Baharguli would ruthlessly eliminate him!
As for the child in my belly...
Ah!
From beginning to end, she had no feelings for the child, and even felt disgust.
The only child she wanted to have was that of His Royal Highness Prince Jin.
Even if the illegitimate child with His Majesty was aborted, she would not frown.
Thinking of this, Concubine Chun hid the coldness in her eyes and shook her head with tears in her eyes: "Yes, I don't understand it either. It is obvious that my child cannot pose a threat to the Fourth Prince. Why is Concubine Chen so intolerant?"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Although you dote on Concubine Chen, the one I am carrying in my belly is also your own flesh and blood!"
"Do you really want to watch others poison my son and me and do nothing? Woo woo..."
Listening to Concubine Chun's tearful accusation, Nangong Xuanyu's eyes were filled with indifference.
He naturally believed that Nian Nian would not do such a thing.
But there are ten thousand ideas in ten thousand people's minds.
After the news spreads, there may be people who use it to attack Nian Nian.
At this critical moment, Nian Nian's reputation must not be blemish-free.
In this case, we should send him to the Ministry of Punishment for a thorough interrogation.
Thinking of this, Nangong Xuanyu looked at Xiao Mingzi coldly.
only……
Although the life of a eunuch is nothing, Nian Nian has always been protective of her, and Xiao Mingzi is deeply in her heart.
If it is finally found out that Xiao Mingzi is innocent and suffers severe punishment in the Ministry of Punishment, I am afraid Nian Nian will be angry about it.
Thinking back to the times when he had conflicts with Nian Nian, Nangong Xuanyu really didn't want to go through it again...
The emperor, who was high and mighty, had not yet realized that his heart was not only biased towards Shen Zhinian, but also towards the people around Shen Zhinian.
Zhang Changzai, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, if you catch a thief, you must catch his dirty laundry."
"Whether this matter is related to Concubine Chen has always been Xing'er's one-sided statement, but no physical evidence has been found."
"I feel that if someone brought something as poisonous as Snow Silkworm's Exuvia into the palace, they would definitely leave traces. Maybe if you send someone to search carefully, you can find clues."
