"Huipin is right. Someone really wants to harm the Queen Mother..."

"Who is so bold as to use witchcraft to cause chaos in the harem?"

Everyone was talking about it, and Xu Xiyue's face became more and more ugly. Huipin's vicious look made her think that the doll was searched out from Changle Palace.

"Xiyue, don't worry, the things were not found in Changle Palace."

Lin Yuejiao came to Xu Xiyue and glanced at Huipin, who at this time had a smile on her face as if her evil plan had succeeded.

Perhaps they had expected the doll to be found in Changle Palace, and thought Xu Xiyue would definitely die this time. They didn't know if she would be able to laugh later...

Hearing the fairy's words, Xu Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor suddenly became furious and threw the puppet to the ground.

"Where did you get this? Tell me!"

The emperor shouted angrily, and everyone fell silent instantly. The imperial guards said in panic, "From... Lanxi Palace!"

How is it possible? It was Huipin who said that the Queen Mother was possessed by evil spirits and proposed to search the palace. Why did the things come out of Lanxi Palace?

All the concubines looked at Huipin in disbelief. Huipin couldn't believe it even more. She shouted at the imperial guards: "How could it be found in Lanxi Palace? Did you remember it wrong? Tell the emperor the truth!"

The imperial guards did not answer, so Xu Xiyue stepped forward and said, "Sister Huipin, where should we search for it?"

Huipin's face changed slightly, and she clutched her sleeves tightly, not daring to tell the truth.

"Empress Hui, this item was indeed found from under your mattress in Lanxi Palace." The imperial guard said firmly.

"It turns out that someone shot himself in the foot..."

Concubine Shu walked out with a smile, stood beside Xu Xiyue and said, "Concubine Hui, you made this, didn't you? The allegation of using witchcraft to harm people is completely false. Your real purpose is probably to frame someone else, and I don't know who among the sisters it is!"

Everyone in the harem knew that Huipin and Xu Xiyue had a grudge against each other. Shufei did not mention any names, but everyone knew that Shufei wanted to say that Huipin did this to frame Chunpin.

Huipin was so angry that her thoughts were exposed, "Madam Shufei, how did I offend you? Why do you want to slander me like this?"

"Really?" Concubine Shu said innocently, "I am just discussing the matter. Why are you so anxious? Are you feeling guilty?"

"You..." Huipin was furious.

Concubine Shu was too lazy to pay attention to her and turned to the emperor to salute, "Your Majesty, whether the doll is related to Concubine Hui, you can find out by interrogating the palace servants in Lanxi Palace."

"Okay! Let's do as Concubine Shu said!" The emperor immediately ordered the imperial guards to interrogate the palace maids in Lanxi Palace.

Huipin's face changed instantly. Although she did not let anyone see when she made the puppet, the thread, cloth and silver needle all passed through the hands of the palace servants. As long as there was a trial, it would be confirmed that the puppet was made by her.

Sure enough, the imperial guards quickly reported back, saying that the palace maids in Lanxi Palace had never seen Huipin making dolls, but they had been ordered to buy needles, thread and cloth.

At this point, it’s clear who made the puppet.

The emperor was furious and ordered Huipin to be banished to the cold palace. Surprisingly, Huipin did not cry or beg for mercy, but rushed towards Xu Xiyue like a madman.

"I clearly had someone put this thing in Changle Palace, why did it appear in Lanxi Palace? Why don't you just die, ah..."

Before Xu Xiyue could move, Concubine Shu rushed in front of her, stopped Concubine Hui, and hurriedly asked someone to take Concubine Hui away.

The matter of witchcraft was settled. It was Concubine Hui's doing that, so the Emperor did not let the Empress Dowager go. This was a great opportunity to get rid of the Shen family, so how could he miss it?

On that day, the emperor issued two imperial decrees, one to make public the Queen Mother's murder of the emperor, and the other to confiscate the Shen family's property and exile them.

This incident caused a sensation in the whole city and sparked heated discussions among the people. Some of Duke Xin's followers even submitted a petition to plead for him.

However, this time the emperor did not indulge these people. Anyone who pleaded for Duke Xin was stripped of his official hat and exiled with Duke Xin.

…………

After returning to Changle Palace, Lin Yuejiao told Xu Xiyue that there were people of Concubine Hui around her, and told Xu Xiyue about the palace maid hiding the doll in Changle Palace.

Xu Xiyue immediately had the maid brought over and beat her in public without even a trial. After a while, the maid passed out from the beating.

The other palace maids were terrified and didn't understand why the usually gentle empress was angry.

"See clearly, anyone who serves me and has second thoughts will end up like this!"

As soon as Xu Xiyue opened her mouth, everyone realized that the beaten maid had betrayed the empress, and they all responded tremblingly.

Having the maid dragged away, Xu Xiyue returned to the bedroom and closed the door before speaking, "It's all thanks to the fairy today, otherwise it would be Xiyue who would be sent to the cold palace."

Lin Yuejiao sat by the window looking at Xu Xiyue. Xu Xiyue looked around, as if looking for her direction.

"Well, now that the Shen family is doomed, the Queen Mother and Concubine Shen are no longer a threat to you. No one will be able to hinder your promotion in the future."

Yes, all those who threaten her have lost their power, who will dare to touch her in the future? She is only a concubine now, but she has Yin'er, who is the emperor's first child. The emperor will not treat them badly, and it is only a matter of time before she is promoted.

Xu Xiyue suppressed her excitement, "The Queen Mother has been imprisoned, and I don't know how the Emperor will deal with Concubine Shen!"

Lin Yuejiao: "Just go and take a look and you'll know!"

The system had already told her that the Shen family had been confiscated and exiled. She didn't expect the emperor to act so quickly. Now it was Concubine Shen's turn next.

Lin Yuejiao asked Xu Xiyue to go together to see what happened to Concubine Shen. When they arrived at Shaohua Palace, they saw Concubine Shen being held by two eunuchs' arms and forced to kneel on the ground.

"My Lady, if you don't choose, I will choose for you!"

Eunuch Zhang raised his hand to signal the palace servants to bring the poisoned wine and white silk. Concubine Shen struggled violently.

"Let me go, you dogs and slaves. The emperor will not sentence me to death. You must have forged the imperial decree. I want to see the emperor..."

Eunuch Zhang picked up the poisoned wine and sneered, "The emperor is busy with government affairs and has no time to see the queen. The queen may not know that the Xin Guogong Mansion has been raided and the whole family has been exiled. The Shen family is doomed. Do you think you are still the high and mighty imperial concubine?"

Concubine Shen's pupils shrank. "No, the emperor can't have confiscated the Shen family. It's impossible. I want to see the emperor. Please let me go..."

Eunuch Zhang didn't waste any words. He ordered someone to pinch Concubine Shen's mouth and forced the poison into her mouth. Then he threw away the cup and left.

The poison went down her throat and into her stomach. Concubine Shen tried desperately to dig it out, but to no avail.

The next moment, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, a fishy and sweet taste rushed up her throat, and she spat out blood.

At this moment, a pair of embroidered shoes came into her sight. She looked up suddenly and saw that it was Xu Xiyue, and her defense was immediately broken.

"Bitch..."

Concubine Shen wanted to grab Xu Xiyue, but she vomited blood again and fell at Xu Xiyue's feet in a panic. The pain in her abdomen made her unable to get up.

Xu Xiyue slowly squatted down, pinched Concubine Shen's jaw, and smiled, "My Lady Concubine, the taste of poison is not pleasant, right?"

"It's you...it's you who harmed my aunt, the Shen family, and me, isn't it..." Concubine Shen screamed with all her might, staring at Xu Xiyue.

"So what?"
