Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss

Upon seeing this, Concubine De smiled bitterly, her heart already filled with despair to the extreme.

Then he looked at Chu Qianyu and Yunying and said, "I am sorry for you."

It was also the first time that Chu Qianyu saw the emperor in such a humble capacity. She never expected that the emperor would protect the queen so much. Perhaps he was not protecting the queen, but his own dignity.

"Your Majesty, is this how you deal with it?" Mo Yinan asked softly, but it seemed a little inappropriate to say it in this kind of occasion.

"How else does the Regent think we should deal with this?" There was a flash of displeasure in the emperor's eyes, and his tone was even more impatient.

Without waiting for Mo Yinan to speak, the emperor looked at Leng Qingzhou and said, "Doctor Leng has nothing to do here for the time being. I will send someone to send Doctor Leng back first."

Leng Qingzhou glanced at Chu Qianyu and saw her nod slightly. Then he said to the emperor, "In that case, I will take my leave." After saying that, he followed a eunuch out.

"I don't think today's matter is that simple. If Your Majesty thinks it's a waste of time, why not hand these two people over to me and let me take them back for a thorough interrogation."

The emperor snorted coldly and said, "The regent does not need to worry about what happens in the palace."

"This is not just something that happened in the palace. My future princess was almost killed. I don't think a little servant like her can do that!" Mo Yinan seemed to be unable to see the emperor's extremely gloomy expression and continued to talk to himself.

"That's why I came here personally to deal with it! Why? Is the Regent dissatisfied with my decision now?"

Mo Yinan's eyes were drooping, and it was hard to tell what his expression was. All he saw was that the curve at the corner of his lips had deepened.

"Of course I am dissatisfied. Today, someone in the palace wants to attack my future princess, and I will not let him go easily. But I don't believe it is so simple. I believe that Your Majesty should understand it in your heart." After saying this, Mo Yinan raised his eyes and looked at the emperor deeply, without any retreat because of the emperor's majesty.

With a 'bang', the emperor dropped the teacup in his hand to the ground, stood up, pointed at Mo Yinan and shouted angrily: "Mo Yinan! Are you planning to rebel?"

Mo Yinan stood up slowly, lowered his head slightly, and spoke calmly, not frightened by the emperor's anger at all: "I dare not, I just want to seek justice for the future princess. If there hadn't been the assassination by the mountain bandits yesterday, perhaps today I would have believed that this was done by that servant alone. But now I have to wonder if there is anyone who doesn't want to see me marry Miss Chu."

"But I heard that General Chu's eldest son conspired with the bandits to kill Miss Chu. How can you link the two things together now?"

Mo Yinan chuckled and said, "Your Majesty thinks too highly of Mr. Chu. That group of bandits is not an ordinary group of bandits. Mr. Chu has no ability to talk to them. Moreover, the remaining survivors have been captured by Patriarch Situ. I believe that in the next two days, we will be able to interrogate who is behind them."

"Why did Patriarch Situ arrest someone? I heard that she accidentally saved Miss Chu yesterday. She even wants to find out who is behind it?" At this point, the emperor looked at Chu Qianyu and asked, "What is your relationship with Patriarch Situ?"

Chu Qianyu stood up and bowed before slowly saying, "Your Majesty, I met Clan Leader Situ by chance and we have some interactions. And Clan Leader Situ happened to pass by yesterday and saved me. As for whether she caught the gang of bandits, I don't know."

Mo Yinan glanced at Chu Qianyu, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. For some reason, he felt as if he could always catch a glimpse of something not quite right in Chu Qianyu, but he couldn't tell what it was.

The emperor knew that things might not be so easy to handle today, but he absolutely could not let Mo Yinan take these two people away.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Mo Yinan, "Since the Regent King thinks this matter is not simple, and this servant has committed a crime in the palace, I think she should be imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment and interrogated by the people in the palace. If I ask you to take her out and interrogate her alone, that is naturally not possible."

"Okay, then let's do as the emperor says. I'm waiting for the emperor's reply." Mo Yinan agreed on the surface, but in his heart he didn't think that this matter could be easily exposed. It seems that he will have to go to the palace in person later.

"Well, since there's nothing else to do, you can go down first."

"Your Majesty, there is also the matter of my aunt. Can the fact that the maid poisoned my aunt for a long time be revealed so easily?" Chu Qianyu whispered.

No one expected that Chu Qianyu would suddenly speak when the emperor obviously wanted to end this quickly.

"I have just said to take people to the Ministry of Punishment for questioning!" The emperor turned around and said in a low voice.

Chu Qianyu seemed to be frightened and shivered, and took a few steps back. But she still refused to show weakness and said, "But my aunt just mentioned that I was persecuted by the queen in recent years, and you seem to have ignored this matter."

"Qianqian, auntie is fine, please stop talking." Defei quickly stopped her. The emperor was obviously displeased, and if she was implicated again, how could she face her sister?

Chu Qianyu shook her head, kneeling on the ground as if she had given up, and said, "Your Majesty, you don't know. Last night, my aunt wrote to me and said that she wanted to meet with me and my mother, and she would send someone to pick us up in two days. But this morning, the queen suddenly sent her aunt to pick us up."

"We were not allowed to go anywhere along the way. We were under strict supervision. I had already sensed something was wrong. After sending me and my mother to Huayang Palace, they knew that my aunt had come to the Queen's place, but they still did not allow me and my mother to go. My mother said that she had been good friends with the Queen since she was young, and thought that since she was here, she must pay her respects to the Queen."

"But the aunt continued to obstruct, so my mother and I gave up. It wasn't until my aunt fainted that my mother and I went over. Then I was poisoned after lunch. I felt that this was very strange. It seemed that everything had been arranged long ago and was aimed at me."

"As the Regent said, some people don't want to see me marry him, so they are trying to stop me. Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly. In addition, my aunt said that she was persecuted by the Queen over the years. I think this matter is related to the Queen!"

"Do you know what you are talking about!" The emperor's face turned pale and he said angrily after hearing this.

Chu Qianyu remained calm and responded: "I know that even if the emperor wants to punish me today, I will seek justice for myself and my aunt."

"Miss Chu, what you just said really broke my heart. I wanted you, Concubine De, and Aying to be reunited as soon as possible so that you could see each other before your wedding. But now you are biting me back. If I had known that you would think of me like this, I would never have thought of you this way."

The queen walked up to Chu Qianyu and looked at her. Her expression was sad, her eyes were red, and her lips were trembling, as if she was really hurt by Chu Qianyu's words.

Chu Qianyu quickly used her inner strength to shoot the prepared silver needle into the queen's body under the cover of her sleeve. The silver needle was coated with the same venom as the soul-forgetting poison. But the only drawback was that it was only effective when the person was extremely nervous and guilty. It just so happened that the queen was in all these situations.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Qianyu used her inner strength to suck out the silver needle and hid it. No one present noticed this action.

The queen only felt a slight pain in her leg, and then it suddenly returned to normal, so she didn't think much about it.

Chu Qianyu looked at the queen without dodging her gaze: "You also said that you were on good terms with my mother before, but Aunt Song's niece is Wang Man! It was because of her that the relationship between my father and mother became strained. Do you dare to say that you had no idea about this?"
