Emperor Ming was confused after hearing this.

She is just a baby in swaddling clothes. Although she is much smarter than ordinary children, how can she help the queen find out the truth?

She can't even turn over!

However, Qu, who was holding Wen Qianqian, suddenly remembered that her Qianqian had used the mantra twice to make the person with ulterior motives tell the truth.

"Qianqian, please help your aunt." Qu said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

She used to have some doubts about Qianqian's abilities, but now she believes everything she says.

Even if Qianqian pointed at Emperor Ming and said he was a pig, Qu would believe it.

Trust is accumulated one thing at a time.

[Okay! Mother! ]

[But I have a condition, let me drink an extra bottle of milk before going to bed tonight! ]

Qu nodded helplessly.

Her daughter Qianqian eats too much, and she is worried that Qianqian will become as obese as Wen Chengzhi, so she strictly controls her diet.

Especially before going to bed.

After getting Qu's nod, Wen Qianqian immediately focused her energy and gathered her spiritual power.

【Mantra, out! 】

The next moment, Zhang Shun suddenly spoke -

"Your Majesty, I am telling the truth!"

"I put the drought demon in there myself!"

Emperor Ming and others suddenly raised their eyes.

"what?!"

It was actually this servant and Concubine De who did it!

Zhang Shun widened his eyes and covered his mouth subconsciously.

what happened!

Why did he tell these truths?

"Slave...mmmm."

He covered his mouth and nose tightly to prevent himself from continuing to speak.

Emperor Ming ordered in a deep voice: "Zhao Bao, tie his hands!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Bao brought the imperial guards forward and easily controlled Zhang Shun's hands.

Zhang Shun couldn't control himself and continued speaking immediately.

"I followed the instructions of Concubine De and did everything I could to find the corpse of the drought demon and turned it into a blood demon. I found an excuse to renovate the Queen's bedroom and placed it underground in the Queen's bedroom without anyone noticing."

damn it!

What is he saying? !

Stop talking!

Zhang Shun was almost going crazy, but he was very eloquent.

"That blood demon will not kill you overnight, it will only make the queen age quickly in a subtle way."

Wen Qianqian smiled widely.

[Speak, keep speaking, if you can speak, speak more! ]

"I didn't know the use of the drought demon at first. It was the Empress Defei who told me."

"Even how to make a blood demon was taught to me personally by Concubine De."

Emperor Ming was greatly shocked.

In addition to being shocked that it was Concubine De who did it, he was also shocked that the baby had the ability to make people tell the truth.

He glanced at Wen Qianqian inconspicuously, then retracted his gaze, and his cold and heavy eyes pressed on Zhang Shun as if they had substance.

"The eldest prince is now the crown prince, and Concubine De has always been compassionate. Why would she do this?"

"You said this to exonerate yourself and deliberately frame Concubine De?"

"I'm telling you, if you dare to frame Concubine De, you will be guilty of an even greater crime!"

Emperor Ming already knew that what Zhang Shun said must be true, but Concubine De was already the mother of the crown prince, so he still had to ask her some questions to show how much he valued the crown prince.

I only heard Zhang Shun's quick answer.

"Although the eldest prince is now firmly seated on the throne of the crown prince, the queen is still the master of the harem. Concubine De is very wary of the queen's existence."

"Although the Second Prince cannot speak, he is brave and good at fighting, and has profound knowledge. He can be said to be both civil and military."

"It is precisely because of this that Concubine De is deeply afraid that the eldest prince's position as crown prince will be taken away by the second prince sooner or later, so she asked the servant to use Hanba to harm the queen."

"Once the queen passes away, the position of the head of the harem will definitely belong to the Virtuous Consort."

"Without the support of the Empress, the Second Prince will no longer be able to seize the Crown Prince's position. This can be said to be killing two birds with one stone."

Queen Qu's eyes turned red in an instant.

I was angry.

If there was anyone in the harem who could get along with her, it was Concubine De.

But who would have thought that the only person she regarded as a sister was actually thinking about her life.

Even though the eldest prince became the crown prince, she hated Emperor Ming and the Qu family, but she never hated Concubine De.

"His Majesty!"

Queen Qu knelt down before Emperor Ming.

Qu and others hurriedly knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please give me justice!"

Emperor Ming quickly helped Empress Qu up.

He caught a glimpse of the white hair on Queen Qu's temples and became even angrier.

"You don't need to tell me. I know what to do. I am not a tyrant who cannot distinguish right from wrong."

"Thank you, Your Majesty..."

Emperor Ming nodded slightly and looked coldly at Zhang Shun, whose face was ashen.

"What a great way to kill two birds with one stone! You guys are really making a good plan! If the Queen hadn't discovered Hanba by accident, she would have been killed by you!"

Zhang Shun's body was shaking like a sieve.

Dead!

He would be crazy to tell the truth, but it was too late to say anything now.

"Your Majesty, please spare me, Your Majesty, please spare me! I have no choice. It was Concubine De who forced me to do it. The lives of my brother and his family are in Concubine De's hands!"

Emperor Ming closed his eyes.

"Drag him out. No matter what method you use, make him tell me the names of all the people involved in this incident!"

"Yes!"

The guards quickly dragged Zhang Shun out.

"Zhao Bao!"

Zhao Bao stepped forward and answered, "The servant is here."

"Bring Concubine De to me!"

After hearing this, Zhao Bao knew that His Majesty had completely believed Zhang Shun's words.

Because Emperor Ming said "bind" instead of "invite".

The situation for Concubine De is hopeless!

What a confused person.

Her son was already the crown prince, so why should she be dissatisfied? She had to do things thoroughly.

Now, he not only failed to steal the chicken, but also lost the rice and even his life.

I don’t know whether this matter will affect the prince.

"Slave, go right away."

Zhao Bao took the order and went to Changchun Palace with several imperial guards.

Wen Qianqian stretched lazily.

[So sleepy, my spiritual power is used up again. ]

[No, I can't fall asleep yet, I want to see the evildoers punished! ]

【Persist, Wen Qianqian! 】

Qu found it funny.

Her daughter really loves watching plays, but she also likes watching!

Who doesn’t want to see what happens to that evil guy?

But this was in front of the emperor, and Qu tried hard to suppress her smile.

However, when Qu raised her eyes, she saw Emperor Ming staring at her and her daughter.

Qu couldn't help but shudder.

Could it be that Emperor Ming saw her smile?

She quickly stood up properly.

Emperor Ming suddenly said, "I don't know yet, who are they?"

Empress Qu followed the Emperor's gaze and saw that it was Qu, so she introduced: "This is Qu, my niece. The one she is holding in her arms is her daughter, Wen Qianqian."

"I see."

Emperor Ming nodded and summoned Qu to his presence.

"This child is beautiful. I am very happy to see her. I wonder if she has a name yet?"

Qu quickly replied: "My daughter has only been given a name, but no courtesy name yet."

Queen Qu reminded: "Your Majesty, Qianqian is not even a month old yet!"

Emperor Ming then realized that names are given by elders during the coming-of-age ceremony.

He listened to Wen Qianqian's inner thoughts and almost forgot that she was still a baby.
