Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

The entire cheek is now red and swollen. Although it is not completely unrecognizable, it is still shocking.

"The means are so vicious. You have seen it clearly. Do you really understand the person you want to protect at all costs?"

The emperor became angry again and spoke without thinking.

It even exposed King Shuo's little intention.

It’s just that other people’s attention is not on this right now, so unless someone pays careful attention, no one will notice it.

"Concubine Shen, do you have any evidence?"

But King Shuo kept asking questions stubbornly and refused to let Shen Zhishu know.

It seemed that if she couldn't produce evidence, she would be the one framing Su Rong and should be punished.

But how innocent is she?

I'm afraid he has forgotten that she helped him a lot when she went to Prince Shuo's Mansion.

Now, he is aggressive.

"Have you checked the medicine you sent beforehand?"

Yan Chu, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

Just one sentence made Shen Zhishu feel chilled to the bone, so was he also doubting her?

As expected, when it comes to Su Rong, he will protect her without hesitation, even if it means pushing her out?

The little bit of status I have in his heart is still insignificant.

If I don't have evidence, is it her who framed Su Rong tonight? Is it me who took the poisonous medicine to harm the queen?

If she were charged with such a crime, she would be doomed.

Obviously, she and Su Rong had the accident at the same time, but the treatment they received was completely different.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Even though Su Rong had done so many stupid things, even though Yan Chu suspected that she had an affair with King Shuo, this was a great shame and humiliation for a man.

But he still protected it without hesitation.

If this had happened to me in my previous life, I would never have believed it.

"Father, before I sent the beauty pills to my mother, I was worried that the medicine would not be effective, so I kept half a bottle for myself. The medicine is in the palace and can be checked."

"Even if you used beauty pills, how can you prove that they were the ones you sent into the palace?"

Before Shen Zhishu could finish her words, King Shuo immediately seized the opportunity to question her.

Because there is no special connection between the two.

"The beauty pills we made this time are quite special. One of the herbs in the pills is very easy to flow out and stick to the bottle. So once it is put into the bottle, it will begin to emit a woody fragrance. In addition, when the porcelain bottle is burned, a faint green smoke will be emitted. This herb will also be present in the pills. If it is an imperial physician, he should be able to find out whether the herb in the bottle contains this special ingredient. He can tell whether it contains beauty pills or not."

She brought the medicine bottle from home, so it must have been contaminated.

But if the medicine inside is missing, it would prove that the beauty pills have been replaced.

She remained calm and slowly explained the reason.

"If you want to check, you can send someone to the mansion to get the beauty pills that this son of mine uses for inspection."

King Shuo's expression changed slightly. He wanted to say something, but then he shut up.

"Imperial Physician, you must use the best medicinal herbs to cure Concubine Shen's face."

The emperor's face turned completely black.

The imperial physician hurriedly knelt forward, patting his chest and assuring that there would be absolutely no problem.

But Shen Zhishu had already seen through something from his reaction.

The first thing to do is not to deal with Su Rong.

Even though he was very angry, he still had to consider his two sons behind him.

How could she be punished so severely just because Su Rong framed her?

Even this little thing was too small compared to what happened today when she presented the clothes of a brothel girl to the Queen, causing shame to the royal family.

It was she who was ruined, and now she is only in the harem.

"Father, I dare to say that even if the medicine was switched, it may not be the princess's doing. And... Fortunately, I tried the medicine and didn't let my mother take it. I will recover after I go back to take care of my face. There are so many people at the birthday banquet today that I can't find out the truth. It's better to let it go so that outsiders won't know and lose face."

Since no one intends to hold Su Rong accountable, why should she hold on to it?

Shen Zhishu lowered his head and spoke softly.

She was the one who was framed and poisoned. Now that she is willing not to pursue the matter, she is taking the initiative to let Su Rong go.

The emperor did not expect that this child would be so sensible and seemed to know what he was thinking.

Even though he hated Su Rong at the moment, he had already promised his two sons, so how could he go back on his word?

Shen Zhishu was of humble origins, her father was only the Minister of the Dali Temple. She was said to be beautiful, and the King of Qin was fascinated by her beauty.

The emperor has no energy to pay attention to such a daughter-in-law.

But now, he felt that he was still prejudiced.

"You have suffered for no reason, and you have protected the queen from disaster. I will definitely reward you handsomely."

"I am terrified, I am afraid I am not worthy of your reward."

Shen Zhishu knelt down hurriedly, with her head down, her expression unclear. One could only judge from her tone that she was a little nervous at the moment.

"Don't you think I'm confused and can't tell the difference between reward and punishment?"

"I don't dare."

"Alright, I'm really tired, let's stop here for tonight, let's go."

The emperor lowered his eyes and glanced at Shen Zhishu twice.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a slight smile.

He said nothing more.

At this time, it was almost dawn, and everyone must be very tired after a night of fear and worry.

The chief steward hurried over, supported the emperor and walked out, then immediately returned to the palace.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Keep an eye on the Princess of Qin. No one is allowed to see her without my permission."

But when they were almost at the door, the emperor gave another special instruction.

Although he didn't turn around, he seemed to know who he was talking about.

Everyone looked at King Qin silently but did not dare to say anything.

They all left this dangerous place.

In the end, only Prince Shuo, Concubine Yue, Shen Zhishu and Yan Chu were left.

It suddenly became deserted.

The atmosphere among the four of them was very awkward.

Especially between Yan Chu and King Shuo.

Yan Chu's eyes were so cold that he looked like he wanted to kill someone.

I'm afraid that from today on, the hatred between them will become much deeper.

Moreover, the relationship between Su Rong and King Shuo is self-evident.

Who can tolerate his woman being involved with other men?

"You two brothers have disappointed your father greatly, and this palace has also looked at you differently."

Concubine Yue spoke first.

He flicked his sleeves and forcibly pulled King Shuo away.

If we were two steps slower, a fight would probably break out.

Yan Chu stood there like an ice chip, looking at the place where Su Rong was imprisoned, and did not move for a long time.

At this moment, Shen Zhishu was annoyed.

If you don't leave, I want to leave.

"My Lord, the princess cannot come out for the time being. It is useless for you to stay here. It is better to go back and think of a way to plead with the emperor."

"Why are you speaking for her?"

She was patient and persuaded softly.

But I never thought that Yan Chu would be so sudden.

What's there to be curious about? Shen Zhishu sighed secretly. She was poisoned at the moment and she was really not feeling well. She was not in a good mood.

"Your Highness is so protective of your Highness, and I am only acting according to your wishes."
