"I suspect that Imperial Doctor Liu is also an accomplice. I hope Your Majesty will look into this matter carefully. From the very beginning when Concubine Shen was found to be pregnant, it was Imperial Doctor Liu who diagnosed her. Imperial Doctor Liu can say that his medical skills are not very good and he did not notice that Concubine Shen was using drugs. However, according to the investigation by the people I sent to the Imperial Hospital, on the day Concubine Shen was diagnosed with pregnancy, it was Imperial Doctor Liu who deliberately switched shifts with his colleagues. And today, Imperial Doctor Liu was not on duty, but he stayed in the Imperial Hospital the whole time. Your Majesty thinks this is too much of a coincidence."

As soon as Lin Junxue opened her mouth, she blocked all the excuses that Doctor Liu wanted to make.

Doctor Liu opened his cloudy eyes wide, panic was in his eyes, and he couldn't hide his guilt.

When everyone heard this, they all looked over as they didn't understand anything.

There are no such coincidences in this world. Once is a coincidence, but twice there must be ulterior motives.

It is obvious that Shen Huachun bribed Doctor Liu and staged this whole scene himself, and now the truth has been exposed.

Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue deeply with an extremely complicated look, and then looked at Doctor Liu with anger boiling in his eyes.

"Come here, throw this old man who colluded with the concubines in the harem into jail, confiscate all his property, and wait for his fate."

Doctor Liu collapsed to the ground and was then taken away by the guards.

Xie Yu stood up, walked to Lin Junxue, and looked into her eyes.

"Today, the Queen was wronged."

Lin Junxue took a step back and bowed politely.

"I respectfully send you to the Emperor"

Xie Yu paused, nodded, and then left with Gao Cheng.

In the past, Xie Yu would definitely look at Chen Xier before leaving, but he didn't this time.

Chen Xier watched Xie Yu leave and only spoke to Lin Junxue, and her heart was filled with turmoil. In the past, the emperor had never ignored her like this.

The others saw Xie Yu taking Gao Cheng away and looked at Lin Junxue.

Lin Junxue had no expression on her face and waved her hand, "Let's all go."

Led by Chen Xier, everyone left one after another. Wu Renlang was the last to leave. Before leaving, he looked at Lin Junxue deeply.

In today's game of fake pregnancy, who is the one playing the chess?

The entrance of Zhonghe Palace

Chen Mi turned his head to glance at the side hall. If the Queen had not been prepared for today's incident, she would probably have no chance of turning the situation around.

However, a mere noble concubine could really bribe the imperial physician of the Imperial Medical Bureau and carefully plan today's events. There must be someone behind this.

But even though Shen Huachun was banished to the cold palace, she never revealed the person behind the scenes.

Just when Chen Mi was thinking about something, Sun Manrou came over.

"Sister, what are you thinking about? Why are you in a daze? Today, our queen is really calm."

Chen Mi looked at Sun Manrou and knew that she was going to start making sarcastic remarks again, which she really didn't like to hear.

"Sister Chen Fei, I feel a little unwell. I will return to the palace first."

Elegant Palace

After Chen Xier came back from Zhonghe Palace, she sat on a chair for a long time without saying a word.

Zi Shuang was trembling with fear. The Queen had been planning for so long, and even deliberately broke up with Shen Huachun in front of the Emperor, just to give Shen Huachun a reason to surrender to the Queen.

The Queen gave all the secret medicines she had painstakingly obtained to Shen Huachun. The Queen had put a lot of effort into today's situation, but in the end, she still failed to make the Emperor dislike the Queen.

for a while

Chen Xier said to Zi Shuang, "Ask Zhang Fufa to arrange for someone to send her off tonight."

Zi Shuang nodded and whispered, "My Lady, I understand."

Chen Xier frowned tightly

Having been in the palace for so long, she has always been confident that she can keep the emperor firmly in her hands.

But recently, the emperor's attitude towards Lin Junxue has changed. Even if she doesn't want to admit it,

Today, the emperor looked at Lin Junxue's guilty eyes, and she saw it clearly.

Zi Shuang glanced at Chen Xier's face and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, will the Queen suspect us about this?"

Chen Xier's eyes sank

"No, I broke up with Shen Huachun in front of Zhonghe Palace on purpose just to show the Queen. She won't suspect me of this. However, the Queen must have been prepared, otherwise she wouldn't look so confident today. It's obvious that she arranged everything in advance. It must be that idiot Shen Huachun who showed her true colors somewhere and the Queen discovered something, so she made preparations early. I was careless this time. During this period of time, I can't act rashly anymore."

Zishuang nodded.

"Your Highness, I think you should focus on the Emperor recently. As long as the Emperor pampers you and loves you, no matter how powerful the Empress becomes, what does it matter?"

Chen Xier looked at Zi Shuang and said, "You are right. By the way, tell Zhang Fufa to be quick and not to cause any trouble for me at this time."

Zi Shuang agreed and turned around to find Zhang Fufa to handle the matter.

the other side

Xie Yu returned to Taiwu Hall and sat on the dragon throne. His dark eyes were gloomy and he did not speak for a long time. Gao Cheng stood quietly aside.

for a while

Xie Yu said, "Tell me, what kind of person is the Queen? Today, she surprised me. Did she know about Shen Huachun's fake pregnancy a long time ago but didn't expose it, and waited until today?"

Gao Cheng was slightly shocked that the emperor was suspicious, but he remained calm.

"Your Majesty, with my stupid brain, how can I understand what the Queen is thinking?"

On the Dragon Throne

Xie Yu thought back to the days when he was in Zhonghe Palace, and how Lin Junxue had been considerate and devoted to him, and the doubts in his heart gradually dissipated.

Perhaps, everything that happened today was just a coincidence. Lin Junxue became suspicious, but had no evidence. Otherwise, how could she, a person in the deep palace, know about the secret medicine of the Western Regions, the Soul-Eating Grass?

Seeing this, Gao Cheng stepped aside and lowered his head silently.

Zhonghe Palace

Lin Junxue sat on the chaise longue, took the tea handed over by Qiao Xin, looked at Qiao Xin, and said softly, "At dusk, follow me to the cold palace."

Qiao Xin paused, and said with some concern, "Your Majesty, the cold palace is not a good place. Most of the people imprisoned there are already crazy. Do you really want to make this trip in person?"

Lin Junxue nodded calmly

"Well, I'll go there myself, it's okay, don't worry, just be careful."

Qiao Xin said, "Okay, then I will follow you, Madam."

Next to him, Guyu was still frightened by what happened today.

"My Lady, have you known for a long time that Shen Huachun has bad intentions and that there is no dragon seed in her belly? And how did you know about the Western Region Soul Devouring Grass?"

In fact, Guyu and Qiaoxin were not aware of all Lin Junxue's arrangements and plans.

It’s not that Lin Junxue doesn’t trust the two of them, she just wants to confuse others.

After all, only when they are unaware of the situation will Qiao Xin and Gu Yu's actions not arouse suspicion.
