Wearing a book, hooking him up

Qianqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, the people I have arranged to be with Yan Zhaoyi and Xu Xiurong have brought back a lot of news. Your Majesty, are you free to listen now?"

Anshun hunched his body and lowered his head, feeling a little uneasy.

Today's news is not very favorable to the Queen. He is very conflicted and doesn't know whether to tell her or not.

Jun Zechen didn't even raise his head, still flipping through the memorials in his hands, and asked casually, "Is it related to the Queen?" His tone was flat.

If it had nothing to do with Yaoyao, he wouldn't really want to hear about the twists and turns between these women.

Anshun frowned, and the muscles on his face twitched unconsciously. It was related, but...

He hesitated and whispered, "About..."

Jun Zechen frowned and raised his head, looking at Anshun with a sharp gaze, which was full of majesty and questioning.

"Are you planning to plot against the Queen again?"

"No, they are just talking about the Queen behind her back."

Anshun explained quickly, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

"What are you talking about the Queen?"

"Recently, Concubine Yan, Xu Xiurong, and Concubine Bai, Tang Guipin, and others have been very close. They even went to see Concubine An together. When they were chatting, they talked about Tang Guipin's miscarriage in the East Palace."

Anshun's voice became smaller and smaller, and his head lowered a little.

"An Jieyu said that it was the Queen who told her that Concubine Tang was abandoned to save her son, so when Ling was disrespectful in front of the late emperor's spirit, it was a conspiracy between Concubine An and Concubine Tang to frame her."

"besides......"

Anshun felt the lower and lower air pressure from His Majesty, and felt as if the air around him had solidified. He didn't know how to continue speaking for a moment.

"What else?"

Jun Zechen suppressed his anger, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

An Shun continued, "Tang Guipin had not yet reported her pregnancy, but she almost had a miscarriage at your birthday banquet, which led to the instability of the royal heir. An Jieyu said that she also listened to the Queen's hint."

"Be bold!"

Jun Zechen was so angry that he slammed the table.

"This Concubine An has been scheming since she came to the Eastern Palace. She is vicious and treacherous, and now she dares to slander my queen."

An Shun was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a plop. "Yes, Your Majesty, I don't believe it either. These are all reports from the spies I placed next to Xu Xiurong. They are not to be trusted."

An Shun's words were flawless. The news brought back by the spies indicated that when these concubines were discussing how to plot against the queen, they discovered the bad things the queen had done in the past.

It's not that they are accusing His Majesty in person. The more unintentional the accusation is, the more credible it is.

but.....

Anshun looked up at His Majesty, but he still had to see whether His Majesty believed it.

In fact, Anshun believed that the Queen was capable of doing such a thing. After all, he knew the Queen's true face much earlier than His Majesty.

Jun Zechen's face is now so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

"Go and get Xu Xiurong." His voice was as cold as ice.

These things happened too long ago, and even if Jun Zechen wanted to find out what happened in the Eastern Palace, it would be too difficult.

But Jun Zechen was afraid, as if there was a stone pressing on his heart, heavy.

No, these women were really sinister and vicious. They all wanted to alienate the relationship between him and Yaoyao. Yaoyao had just entered the Eastern Palace and was even very close to the Ling sisters. How could she do such a thing?

Moreover, Yaoyao said that she loved him, so she loved Ling as well as her family. When he wanted Ling to be the queen, Yaoyao just wanted to make him happy.

These women are talking nonsense. How could Yaoyao be plotting against him and them in the East Palace?

Xu Xiurong came to the Qianqing Palace with an uncontrollable excitement in her heart.

His Majesty actually summoned her to the Qianqing Palace today?

This is a rare honor.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Xu Xiurong bowed gracefully.

After saying this, Xu Xiurong didn't hear His Majesty's voice calling for a long time. Her heart couldn't help but skip a beat. She quietly raised her eyes and prepared to look at His Majesty calmly.

But as soon as she raised her eyes, she was caught off guard by His Majesty's icy gaze.

Her eyes instantly dodged and she lowered her head again.

Xu Xiurong frowned unconsciously, feeling confused. She didn't seem to have done anything out of line recently, so why did His Majesty look at her with such a cold gaze?

"Have you been investigating the Queen's Eastern Palace recently?"

Jun Zechen spoke calmly, his voice was flat without a trace of emotion, but the chill in his words made Xu Xiurong shiver.

"I...I just had a casual chat with the old man from the East Palace."

A strange look flashed in Xu Xiurong's eyes, and she was secretly shocked. Sure enough, there were His Majesty's people around her. So His Majesty already knew that they were discussing the Queen's conspiracy to murder the crown prince and frame Ling in the East Palace?

If that's the case, shouldn't Your Majesty be angry with the Queen? Why is he looking for her instead?

Countless questions swirled in her mind, making her increasingly nervous.

"The Queen has confessed everything she has done to me. Please stop making any meaningless calculations."

Jun Zechen's cold voice sounded like a biting cold wind in winter, causing Xu Xiurong's heart to ache.

Xu Xiurong looked up in shock, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is plotting to murder the heir to the throne. If you favor the Queen so much, won't I, the other concubines and the princes be worried every day in the future?"

Her voice trembled, with a hint of despair and unwillingness.

"If the queen had murdered your children, these heirs would not have been born."

Jun Zechen's eyes were calm, as if he was just stating a very common fact, but they contained a majesty that made people dare not disobey.

When Xu Xiurong heard His Majesty's words of trust in the Queen, she felt that her hopes were shattered in an instant, and all her previous careful plans would come to nothing.

Her body collapsed like a puddle of mud as she knelt on the ground.

"We are also your concubines, why do you only want the queen?"

Her voice was trembling with tears and tears welled up in her eyes.

Jun Zechen did not answer her, but gave her another heavy blow.

"When Lady Chu was poisoned, the poison was brought into the palace by Princess Qingping. Did you know that?"

Xu Xiurong was suddenly extremely panicked, his heart was in his throat, but he pretended to be calm and expressionless.

"Your Majesty, I don't know."

She avoided his gaze and did not dare to look at Jun Zechen.

"You don't need to know. I just need to know. I have the confessions of both the maid you bribed and Princess Qingping. You murdered Lady Chu and framed Concubine An. Now you are secretly winning over the concubines and plotting against the queen. You are so bold that you are not worthy of raising an heir to the throne."

Jun Zechen's voice was icy cold, and every word was like a sharp blade, stabbing straight at Xu Xiurong.

"No, no, no, Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I will never go against the Queen again. Please, Your Majesty, please don't separate me and my son."

Xu Xiurong kowtowed desperately, his forehead was bleeding, his face was covered with tears and blood, and he looked extremely miserable.

"Anshun, Xu Xiurong was demoted to a commoner and moved to the cold palace. The Sixth Prince was handed over to Concubine Ming to raise. An Jieyu was framed and restored to Concubine Xian. The Third Prince, who was temporarily raised by Concubine Ming, is still raised by Concubine Xian."

When Xu Xiurong heard His Majesty's cold and heartless words, his mind went blank.

how so? how so?

Her eyes were wide open, lifeless and empty, as if she had lost her soul.

"Take the people down."

Jun Zechen waved his hand impatiently.

Xu Xiurong suddenly remembered something and shouted frantically: "Your Majesty, do you trust your queen so much? She has been scheming since she entered the East Palace. This is not my frame-up, this is the truth. I have done nothing wrong!"

"Your Majesty, there is one thing you may not know. Your queen is having an affair with the imperial physician!"

Jun Zechen's sharp eyes instantly shot towards her. What was this crazy woman talking about!

"Doctor Jin from the Imperial Hospital. I never knew that the Empress had such a gentle and kind young doctor by her side."

"Later, I found out by coincidence that this imperial physician was by the Empress's side when she gave birth to twins, and he was even very close to her in the delivery room. This was told to me by a midwife!"

Jun Zechen's face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm.

"Anshun, cover her mouth and take her away!"

"Your Majesty, your queen has betrayed you a long time ago. Perhaps the queen noticed that I was investigating this imperial physician Jin, and sent him out of the palace long ago. Isn't this just a guilty conscience?"

"Hahaha, your majesty, go check on the queen you trust yourself."

Xu Xiurong screamed at the top of her lungs, her face distorted and hideous.

An Shun was terrified when he heard this, and quickly covered Xu Xiurong's mouth and dragged her away.

Xu Xiurong looked at His Majesty, who was sitting on the couch with an expressionless face, in despair, his eyes filled with resentment.

Before she could find out whether the Empress had an affair with Imperial Physician Jin, Imperial Physician Jin was sent away by the Empress. The Empress was so guilty that she must have had an unusual relationship with the young imperial physician.

Since Your Majesty doesn't care about the Queen's vicious plots, doesn't he care about the Queen's unclear relationship with other men?

Jun Zechen's mind was in a mess right now. The East Palace's calculations, and the so-called Imperial Doctor Jin, how much had she hidden from him? !

Did this woman love him?
