Deep Palace Pet Peach Blossom Flawless

Lan Qingwu certainly had her doubts that day, but the explanation given by Emperor Shenwu later dispelled her doubts. After all, she had a natural trust in Emperor Shenwu, which came from their childhood acquaintance and from the young man Yun Heng.

Especially since Emperor Shenwu did not bother to lie about such matters.

Lan Qingwu asked with red eyes, "What if Your Majesty is unconscious and has forgotten what happened that night?"

Emperor Shenwu paused for a moment. "Although I had a strong reaction that night and was a little drowsy, I didn't even untie my belt when I was in the same room with that Jiang girl. I then drove her away. How could I have said she was pregnant with my child?"

The more the Emperor spoke, the colder his expression grew. "How dare you try to pin this on me! The Jiang family doesn't want to gain a foothold in the Imperial City anymore!"

As an emperor, Emperor Shenwu never thought that such a thing would happen to him. It can only be said that Jiang Yuxian was the most audacious and presumptuous one.

Lan Qingwu also calmed down and tried to comfort the Emperor Shenwu: "Brother Heng, don't be angry! It's not worth it for that kind of person! But, this matter has reached our ears, and I'm afraid it has spread everywhere. What are you going to do?"

A cold light flashed in the Emperor Shenwu's phoenix eyes: "Capture that little eunuch first! In this palace, if you regard others as your master, then don't take this life!"

Emperor Shenwu said calmly, "Li Xiang!"

Li Xiang appeared silently at the inner door. Emperor Shenwu's tone was calm and solemn: "Didn't you ask me to send the imperial physician? Go! Have Imperial Physician Li, who specializes in women's pediatrics at the Imperial Hospital, go to Qingjing Temple. Send Li Tong'an, the deputy commander of the Jinlin Guards of the Dali Temple, to investigate!"

Li Xiang was startled, and after some thought, he took the order and left.

Doctor Li, not understanding the emperor's intention, bowed and asked Li Xiang, "Eunuch Li, I wonder what your majesty means?"

If a positive pulse is detected, is it joy or sorrow?

Li Xiang smiled and said, "Doctor Li, just treat this as a free consultation for the people. Once you have the results, report them to His Majesty truthfully and impartially."

Doctor Li understood what was going on. He clasped his fists to show his gratitude and left the palace with his medical box.

Li Tongan, the deputy commander of the Jinlin Guard, also frowned upon receiving the imperial edict. He said bluntly, "Eunuch Li, I'm a rough man, so I'm asking directly what His Majesty means. There are rumors out there that the child in the Jiang family girl's belly is His Majesty's. His Majesty sent me to investigate. What exactly is it..."

If His Majesty is only concerned about the Empress's face now, and the girl from the Jiang family still enters the palace later, wouldn't he be offending people in vain?

Li Xiang shook his head, looked around and said, "Deputy Commander, you just need to investigate the father of the child in Jiang's belly. Do you understand?"

Li Xiang thought to himself, not to mention that it couldn't possibly be His Majesty's child, even if it was, with Jiang's daughter's despicable means, His Majesty would surely not acknowledge it. Even for the Empress, this child couldn't be His Majesty's!

Li Xiang shuddered when he thought of this. He didn't dare to think about it anymore and hurried back to the palace to report.

Deputy Commander Li Tongan led a team of soldiers to the Qingjing Temple on the outskirts of the city. At the same time, Li Tongan ordered another team to thoroughly investigate the Jiang Mansion in the imperial city, focusing on investigating the interpersonal relationships of the Jiang family's daughter.

In Fengqi Palace, Emperor Shenwu asked Li Xiang to leave after hearing his report.

Emperor Shenwu held Lan Qingwu in his arms, his expression pensive. He muttered to himself, "Things can't be that simple. The Jiang family is certainly aware that I have no connection with the Jiang family's daughter."

Lan Qingwu also said softly: "The Jiang family should not do such a meaningless thing that harms others and does not benefit themselves. Then who is behind Jiang Yuxian?"

What is the purpose of the person behind this?

Emperor Shenwu's mind was already spinning. His bony fingers gently lifted Lan Qingwu's snow-white chin: "Weiwei, do you believe me?"

Of course Lan Qingwu was willing to believe Emperor Shenwu, but this incident had just happened and Lan Qingwu had not yet reacted. He also had no intention of being intimate with Emperor Shenwu at this moment.

That hint of hesitation caught the eyes of the Divine Martial Emperor, and was particularly annoying. The Divine Martial Emperor turned over and pressed Lan Qingwu under him, staring at Lan Qingwu with his phoenix eyes: "What are you hesitating about, weakling?"

Lan Qingwu sensed the Divine Martial Emperor's displeasure and hurriedly whispered, "I was just thinking about the outcome of this matter, and besides..."

Emperor Shenwu interrupted Lan Qingwu. While gently stroking Lan Qingwu's cheek, he said slowly, "Wei Ruo, you don't have enough confidence in me! If I really didn't care about you, I could have taken Jiang's daughter in when she offered herself to me. Even if she was really pregnant with the dragon fetus at this time, I could have taken her into the palace. If I didn't like her, I could have killed her and kept the child when she gave birth. You wouldn't be able to do anything to me then!"

Lan Qingwu stared blankly at the Emperor Shenwu. Her heart was filled with bitterness at his assumptions. She unconsciously hugged the Emperor Shenwu's waist tightly and said blankly, "But...but Your Majesty, you just said that you didn't lie to me."

Emperor Shenwu pinched Lan Qingwu's nose in pretended anger and said, "Rest well today. Tomorrow, I will see who is so audacious as to frame me and attempt to confuse the royal bloodline. They deserve death!"
