Since the emperor had already spoken, Si Yan was not polite and directly asked Boya's men to bring forward the two old maids who used to serve Concubine Xin.

Nanny An and Nanny Fang have served Xinya for more than twenty years, and everyone is familiar with them.

The two maids came forward, knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Your servants pay their respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."

The emperor was even more familiar with the two of them. In the past, he often stayed in Concubine Xin's palace, and these two maids served him.

He knew that Xinya valued them very much and asked them to do everything.

They come now, not knowing what their purpose is.

"What do you two have to say?" asked the emperor.

The two maids were both worldly-wise and were not nervous at all. They knelt steadily in front of the emperor, allowing Concubine Xin to stare at them with murderous eyes.

Nanny An spoke first, "Your Majesty, I have come here today to expose the improper relationship between Concubine Xin and Wei Shu, an aide to Prince Chen's palace. They have been in close contact since more than twenty years ago until we were expelled from the palace."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall. It was ridiculous, really ridiculous!

Although Concubine Xin was the favorite concubine of His Majesty, she had an improper relationship with other men, which lasted for more than 20 years.

The emperor's face looked extremely ugly. Xinya actually betrayed him?

After Nanny An finished speaking, Nanny Fang continued, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has been visiting Prince Chen's residence every two or three months for the past few years. She's ostensibly visiting Prince Chen, but in reality, she's having a secret meeting with Wei Shu. The person Imperial Concubine Xin truly loves isn't Your Majesty, but this Wei Shu."

Everyone fell silent, and the emperor's chest rose and fell violently.

If Concubine Xin really wanted to visit Prince Chen, she could have let Prince Chen enter the palace.

Going to Prince Chen's Mansion every time makes people suspicious.

Xin Ya glared at the two maids, her finger trembling as she spoke, "You two slaves! I've always treated you well. Why did you turn to Si Yan the moment I lost power and try to smear me by taking advantage of my misfortune?"

Xin Ya burst into tears and cried out to the sky, "Oh God, what did I, Xin Ya, do wrong in my previous life that you are punishing me like this? You actually poured such a huge basin of dirty water on me, how can I bear it..."

Xinya never imagined that after more than 20 years of relationship between master and servant, these two dogs would disregard her dignity and tell her all these dirty things.

Nanny An sneered, "Noble Concubine Xin, Nanny Fang and I have treated you wholeheartedly and loyally, but who could have imagined that you have such a vicious heart!"

Xinya frowned and remained silent.

Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked at Nanny An and Nanny Fang.

Nanny An continued, "Your Majesty, after we left the palace, we originally wanted to return to our hometown and live out the rest of our lives in peace. But who could have known that the Xin family would actually send people to hunt us down? If it weren't for Lord Si Yan's men who saved us, we would have long since become the victims of the Xin family's assassins..."

The hall was silent for a moment, and everyone understood Xinya's intention in killing the people around her.

It's simply that the people around him know too many secrets, so he wants to kill them to silence them.

Xinya was so cruel as to order the assassination of two old maids who had followed her for more than twenty years. This shows how many secrets these two old maids knew about her.

Xin Ya, with tears and snot running down her face, said pitifully, "Your Majesty, please listen, please listen! It was Si Yan who saved them again? All of this was arranged by Si Yan."

Concubine Xin knelt forward and tried to grab the emperor's clothes, but Han Hu blocked her with a sword.

"Noble Concubine Xin, you just attempted to assassinate His Majesty. Please keep your distance from His Majesty."

Han Hu's expression was cold and fierce, with a murderous aura all over his body. "You are not allowed to come near His Majesty."

Xin Ya prostrated herself on the ground, crying as she spoke, "Your Majesty, isn't this matter clear enough? Si Yan first forced Nanny An and Nanny Fang to leave me and drove them out of the palace. Then he arranged for someone to assassinate them and then had someone rescue them. This way, they would be grateful to Si Yan, and Si Yan would then take the opportunity to instigate them to slander me and Prince Xin. From beginning to end, this was Si Yan's conspiracy to get rid of Prince Xin."

The emperor frowned, unable to tell whether what Xinya said was true or not.

Xinya cried so desperately. If it were in the past, he would have chosen to believe Xinya without hesitation.

But now, he is extremely disappointed with Xinya.

However, he still didn't know whether Si Yan took the opportunity to deliberately implicate Prince Xin in order to get rid of him.

The only thing the emperor knew clearly was that Si Yan's political skills were far beyond his imagination.

This girl now truly possesses the ability to control the court, and it has only been a few months since she came to prominence in the capital.

Whenever the emperor thought of this, his scalp would go numb.

"Noble Concubine Xin has a rich imagination, but it's all just sophistry."

Si Yan turned his gaze to the two old maids, "Madam, please tell us what you know. His Majesty will be able to distinguish right from wrong."

Nanny An and Nanny Fang both nodded.

They were devoted to Xinya, but Xinya killed them all.

Now, they no longer care about the relationship between master and servant.

Nanny An's eyes darkened as she spoke, "Your Majesty, do you still remember the night you favored Noble Concubine Xin and gave birth to Prince Xin? At that time, you were drunk and stayed in Noble Concubine Xin's palace. Actually, it wasn't you who was drunk, but Noble Concubine Xin who drugged your wine..."

The emperor was stunned and said that he had always had a good alcohol tolerance. That night, he got drunk without drinking much.

He thought it was because of the alcohol, but it turned out that Concubine Xin had someone give him medicine?

Si Yan spoke at the right time: "Your Majesty, many secret medicines were found in Concubine Xin's palace. She has been able to gain Your Majesty's favor over the years because of these secret medicines that can harm Your Majesty's body."

The emperor's expression became increasingly gloomy. Thinking of the many outrageous things Concubine Xin had done, his heart grew colder by the minute.

Nanny Fang said, "Your Majesty, at that time, you favored the Empress the most and were quite cold towards Noble Concubine Xin. It was only after you had Prince Xin that you began to pay attention to Noble Concubine Xin. But when Prince Xin was born, he didn't look like Your Majesty at all. He looked a lot like Wei Shu..."

All of them who had seen Wei Shu were greatly surprised, but no one dared to say anything.

Xin Ya's eyes were bloodshot as she roared, "Spreading rumors and slandering Prince Xin, can you bear the consequences? This is a grave crime punishable by extermination of all property and genocide!"

Concubine Xin looked at the emperor with tearful eyes, "Your Majesty, this happened more than 20 years ago, and now they are saying that Prince Xin is like the Book of Wei. They are really good at making it up. Si Yan did everything he could to kill Prince Xin!"

"My Lady, they don't know enough. If you want to talk about what happened back then, this old servant has to do it."

As they were talking, an old lady came in with a cane. It was Aunt Su.
