"Your Majesty, Concubine Rou's maid Qing Zhang is kneeling outside the palace asking for an audience."

Qin Zhi paused while writing on the memorial and said nonchalantly:

"Isn't she serving the eldest prince? Could it be that something happened to the eldest prince in Ci'an Palace that required him to come to me?"

"I see that she looks nervous, and I dare to suspect that she might be here to apologize." Zhang Deli glanced at Qin Zhi's expression secretly, and seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, he joked.

"Let her in."

Qing Zhang kept his head down the whole time and didn't dare to look up.

She suddenly knelt before the emperor, holding a letter above her head with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, I, Qing Zhang, greet you. This is the last letter from Concubine Rou. Please have a look at it."

"Zhang Deli, go get it."

Zhang Deli, who was standing by, quickly took the letter, unfolded it, dusted it off and then presented it to him.

"A letter of apology?"

Qin Zhi was holding a red brush in one hand and an unfolded letter in the other, on which were written the three big words "Letter of Apology".

He glanced casually. The first part was all about Concubine Rou setting the stage for the relationship, trying to evoke Qin Zhi's good memories with her. In the middle, she talked about his affinity and sisterly love with Concubine Li Yan Shuer, and Concubine Li's love for the eldest prince.

She also wrote about Yingpin, saying that Yingpin had told her directly that she hated her and did not like the eldest prince, and hoped that Qin Zhi would not hand the eldest prince over to Yingpin.

Qin Zhi frowned and turned to the back, where he saw Concubine Rou saying that she had given Concubine Li a pregnancy-inducing drug.

He finally came to life and put down the red brush in his hand.

He held the letter in both hands and read it carefully.

Concubine Rou actually revealed that she had given Concubine Li a sterilizing drug through Zhu Qiu!!!

What is this doing?

Qin Zhi was a little angry, but he was not angry about the trivial matter of who gave whom a sterilizing drug, which he thought was a trivial matter.

But it was that Concubine Rou was able to find an opportunity to persuade the senior palace maids of other concubines to do such a headless thing for her even though they were being monitored the whole time by his Jingjisi and Xiuyiwei.

The Jingjisi and Xiuyiwei were like useless people, knowing nothing.

However, his anger only lasted for a moment, and he began to wonder whether Liu Yiren, who had always been an ordinary person, had also had some adventure.

However, the beauty has passed away, and he has no way to verify his doubts.

Concubine Rou begged Qin Zhi to forgive her irrational mistakes for her child as a dying mother, considering her years of service and her risking her life to give birth to the eldest prince. She also begged Qin Zhi to forgive her irrational mistakes for her child, and to give the eldest prince to Concubine Li to raise, as a compensation for her child.

She begged Qin Zhi to consider her honesty and the eldest prince's concealment of the matter for her and just treat it as Zhu Qiu's doing.

Zhu Qiu is not innocent in this matter.

The reason why she helped Concubine Rou do this was because she was jealous of Concubine Li and Yan Shuer, who was also a palace maid but was able to become an empress.

Zhu Qiu thought she had a pretty face, but she could only serve Yan Shuer, who was also a lowly palace maid like her. She racked her brains to step on Yan Shuer to get to the top.

She felt that as long as Concubine Li was unable to give birth to a child, she would be useful.

In addition, Zhu Qiu was unwilling to let Lipin take over the eldest prince smoothly, so she secretly went to find Yingpin for this reason, but was rejected by Yingpin.

Qin Zhi knew about this, but he didn't care. What he cared about more was how Liu Yiren was so powerful and knew so much.

Qin Zhi put down the letter in his hand and asked Qing Zhang casually, "Have you read the letter secretly? How much do you know about Concubine Rou? Did she tell you anything? I told you not to read the letter, but you still read it secretly?"

Qing Zhang: "Yes, I opened the letter. There was an envelope originally, but it was blank, so I didn't keep it. After the queen gave birth to the eldest prince, she became strange. Before she left, she only told me not to be sad about her death, and told me not to interfere in other matters, and that I should leave the palace when I was old enough."
