The abandoned concubine is charming and charming, and the sickly prince breaks his waist

"When I passed by the side hall just now, I saw Concubine Rou and a guard walk in. Not long after, a sound... which made people blush and ears turn red, came from inside."

After saying this, she took out the hairpin from her sleeve, raised it above her head and said, "I found another hairpin outside the side hall."

When everyone saw the hairpin, they had different expressions, and Concubine Li Shu couldn't help but exclaimed.

"I think I've seen Concubine Rou wearing this hairpin before."

As soon as she spoke, Concubine Qi Hui also echoed: "I seem to have seen Concubine Rou wearing it, and it seems more than once."

Both of them said so, and Concubine Ning and Concubine Shun also echoed that they had seen Hua Shu wearing it when they paid their respects to the Queen.

Concubine Fu tightened her hands in her sleeves a little, and she subconsciously looked towards where Hua Shu was sitting. When she found that only Rendong was standing there, her face became a little ugly.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Lin also looked in the direction where Hua Shu was sitting. When she didn't see Hua Shu, she subconsciously looked at Chu Hengzhi.

Chu Hengzhi looked at the hairpin held in the palace maid's hand and his hand holding the wine glass tightened unconsciously. Wasn't this the hairpin that Hua Shu dropped when she killed someone that night?

He looked towards where Hua Shu was sitting, and when he saw only Rendong, his expression became a little ugly. It seemed that she was being plotted against today.

There was no other expression on the prince's face. After all, he knew that his mother would take action against Hua Shu.

Chu Yunxiao was the opposite of him. He subconsciously glanced at his mother. Didn’t she agree to cooperate with Hua Shu?

Why did she point out that the hairpin belonged to Hua Shu? Could this be part of their plan?

Emperor Wu Ren did not speak a word from beginning to end. His face looked extremely ugly, and his eyes were fixed on the hairpin in the palace maid's hand. He had also seen Hua Shu wearing it before.

When Empress Liu saw that he looked unhappy, a smile flashed across her eyes, but her face was serious. She scolded the maid, "Rou Guiren was here just now. Did you mistake her for someone else?"

The palace maid shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, I was not mistaken. That person was indeed Concubine Rou."

Empress Liu heard her say this, so she looked at Emperor Wu Ren in embarrassment and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think Concubine Rou is someone who would do such a thing, but this palace maid is so sure that it is Concubine Rou, this..."

Emperor Wu Ren's face was terribly cold. He looked at Ren Dong, who was standing next to Hua Shu's chair with her head down, and asked in a cold voice, "Where did Concubine Rou go?"

Honeysuckle knelt down with a thud. She lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, my lady has gone downstairs to change into her dance costume. She should be back soon."

Before she finished speaking, Concubine Li Shu couldn't help but sneered: "This Concubine Rou changed into her dance clothes and ran to the side hall, and brought a guard with her. Could it be that she wanted the guard to help her dress?"

After hearing this, Emperor Wu Ren's face turned even uglier. Empress Liu pretended to rebuke him and said, "Shupin, don't talk nonsense. Maybe the palace maid saw it wrongly. Concubine Rou just went downstairs to change into her dancing clothes. As for this hairpin..."

Having said this, she paused, looking as if she didn't know how to explain for Hua Shu.

Seeing her like this, Concubine Fu couldn't help but stand up and said, "Your Majesty, Queen, there are many similar hairpins. How can you doubt Concubine Rou's character just because of a similar hairpin? I don't think she would do such a thing."

After hearing what she said, Concubine Qi Hui also nodded and said, "Your Highness is right. We can't doubt Concubine Rou just because of a hairpin."

At this point, Concubine Qi Hui changed the subject and said, "But this palace maid kept saying that she saw Concubine Rou and a guard enter the side hall with her own eyes, and Concubine Rou is now missing. This is bound to make people suspicious."

Concubine Fu looked at Concubine Qi Hui coldly and said in a cold voice: "Just now, the maid next to Concubine Rou said that she went to change her dance clothes, not that she didn't know where she was."

"Besides, who can be sure that what this maid said is true? If it was Concubine Hui and you wanted to meet someone privately, would you be stupid enough to choose to meet at the palace banquet today?"

When Concubine Qi Hui saw Concubine Fu speaking up for Hua Shu, she became more certain that Hua Shu was hers.

She was too lazy to talk nonsense with Concubine Fu. She stood up and looked at Emperor Wu Ren and Empress Liu, saying, "Your Majesty, Empress, I also think that we cannot convict Concubine Rou just because of a few words from this palace maid. I think we should go and take a look, so as not to wrongly accuse Concubine Rou."

Concubine Li Shu also echoed, "Your Majesty, I also think that instead of listening to this palace maid here, it is better to go and see it in person."

Concubine Fu wanted to say something, but Emperor Wu Ren glanced at everyone, stood up and strode towards the side hall.

Seeing this, Empress Liu also quickly stood up and followed, followed by Concubine Li Shu, Concubine Qi Hui, Concubine Lin Xian...

Seeing the situation, Concubine Fu quickly followed. She had vaguely guessed that Hua Shu was being set up today.

Seeing this, Chu Hengzhi, the prince, Chu Yunxiao, and Chu Yunyang followed.

Although the prince and Chu Yunyang did not know today's plan, they could guess who was responsible for today's incident.

Now it seems that Hua Shu cannot escape, but the prince can't help but feel a little regretful, as people with Hua Shu's looks are rare.

If she had always been at his service, she would have helped him succeed in the future. Unfortunately, she had second thoughts, so he could not keep her.

Chu Yunxiao couldn't understand why his mother changed her mind, but he still believed in his mother, so he wanted to go and see what was going on.

Chu Hengzhi slowed down his pace and walked to the back. He wanted to find an opportunity to ask Rendong whether what happened today was planned by Hua Shu or Hua Shu was framed by someone.

But Rendong didn't seem to understand what he meant. She kept walking with a few eunuchs and palace maids, so Chu Heng couldn't find a chance to ask her.

There was no conversation along the way. When they arrived outside the side hall, Emperor Wu Ren and the others had not yet entered when they heard a blushing voice coming from the side hall.

Emperor Wu Ren's face turned ugly. He shouted angrily, "He Zhong, take people to drag the people out for me!"

He Zhong responded and walked in with a few eunuchs.

Empress Liu pretended to comfort her, "Your Majesty, Concubine Rou is still young, maybe she was deceived by someone, you..."

Before she finished her words, a soft and boneless voice sounded from behind the crowd.

"Why are you all here? Did something happen?"

When everyone heard this, they subconsciously turned around and saw Hua Shu wearing an exquisite dance costume and walking towards them with curiosity on her face.

Caiyue followed behind her, lowering her head and supporting her.

Hua Shu, wearing a dancing costume under the moonlight, was stunningly beautiful and instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Only Empress Liu and Concubine Qi Hui had disbelief written all over their faces when they saw their master and servant, and they looked at each other almost at the same time.

If Hua Shu is here, then who is the person in the side hall?
