After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back

Seeing the person coming, everyone knelt down and said in unison:

"May the Empress Dowager live forever and may she live a thousand years!"

Empress Lü said in a steady voice, "Stand up."

Seeing the Queen Mother arrive, He quickly stepped on Xie Shuyao and said, "I deserve to die for letting this frivolous and wanton woman pollute the eyes of the Queen Mother. I will take her away now."

Empress Lü had just listened to most of the conversation. She hated the dirty things in the harem the most, so she naturally had a bad attitude towards Xie Shuyao, and she didn't intend to let her go. She said sternly:

"You are young, but you are so arrogant. Tell me what you are preparing!"

Noticing that the Queen Mother was angry, everyone lowered their heads even more, fearing that they would be affected.

He was secretly delighted, thinking that Xie Shuyao was dead this time.

Xie Shuyao took out a handkerchief from her sleeve without haste and said softly:

"I heard that the queen was ill and needed a thousand-year-old blood ganoderma as a medicine. I also heard that many rare herbs have appeared in Kunlun Mountain recently, so I thought of trying my luck. Perhaps my sincerity moved heaven and earth, and I really found one."

At the same time, she spread out the handkerchief, and inside it lay a blood ganoderma.

There was dew on the Ganoderma lucidum and it was stained with fresh soil, obviously it had just been picked.

He's face changed drastically, but she quickly regained her composure. She didn't know how capable Xie Shuyao was.

Although she didn't recognize the blood ganoderma, she knew that the one in Xie Shuyao's hand was definitely not it.

No, we can't give her another chance to turn things around.

He slapped Xie Shuyao's hand away and said, "You damned girl, you actually used fake Lingzhi to deceive the Queen Mother. You deserve to be killed!"

Empress Lü was still waiting and watching, but when she heard what He said, her face suddenly darkened and she said sternly, "How dare she! She is lying all the time in the palace! Someone, take her to the prison!"

Seeing that Xie Shuyao was about to be held by the guards, Doctor Zhang came late. When he saw the thing on the ground, his eyes lit up and he quickly picked it up with fear and trepidation: "Where did this blood ganoderma come from? It's a treasure."

Doctor Zhang has been treating the Empress Dowager's health for many years, so his words naturally carry weight.

Empress Lu froze for a moment, her face still showing anger, and she subconsciously asked, "Is this true?"

Doctor Zhang said without hesitation: "Of course, judging from its size, it is at least a hundred years old, if not a thousand years old. It has a bright color and a complete body. It is a top-quality plant."

After these words were spoken, Empress Lu's face turned a little embarrassed. If this was the case, then she almost wrongly accused someone.

She cleared her throat, her tone much softer than before, but still wary, "Did you really find this? Others give antiques and calligraphy and paintings as gifts, but how could a girl like you think of going out in the wilderness to look for this?"

Empress Lü still had some doubts about Xie Shuyao's motives.

After hearing this, Xie Shuyao lowered her head and said softly, "Don't be afraid of being laughed at by the Queen Mother. I am poor and cannot afford a decent birthday gift.

Although the family has received rewards from the emperor, they were all earned by my husband’s life. Now that my husband’s body is still warm, how can I touch his things? That’s why I thought of going to the mountain to try.”

Maybe no one would believe what others said, but everyone present knew Xie Shuyao's background. If she had not married into the Pei family, she would have been an illiterate country woman all her life.

Her status in the Pei family was not good either, and she was almost drowned yesterday.

Compared to He's statement that Xie Shuyao was having an affair, the blood ganoderma is obviously more powerful evidence.

Thinking of this, Empress Lü turned to look at He: "From this point of view, Xie is a person who values ​​friendship and loyalty. On the other hand, as an elder, why did you spread rumors that Xie had an affair with someone else? What is your intention?"
