Teaming up with her mother to take revenge on the scumbags! The Crown Princess becomes the darling o

With just one sentence, everyone's attention was drawn from Haijin and the palace maid to Consort Li, and everyone was wondering why she would suddenly say such a thing.

Consort Li was somewhat timid at this moment, but since she had already spoken, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and point it out.

“I remember this palace maid who serves Consort Tong. Once, the princess was being mischievous and accidentally spilled hot tea on her hand. Although she received timely treatment, she was left with a shallow scar. I felt guilty, so I gave her a silver bracelet to cover it up. When she helped Consort Tong just now, I saw that she didn’t have that scar on her wrist. So, she is definitely not the original owner of this body!”

Her words left the palace maid, who was actually King Le in disguise, speechless for a moment.

The palace maid was naturally dealt with by her, and all her belongings were taken over directly. However, she didn't notice this and subconsciously tried to cover her arms and look around for any way to escape.

Before he could even move, Haijin sprinkled a handful of white powder on him, causing him to squint and collapse to the ground, unable to move.

"you!"

"If I'm not mistaken, you are the real King Li!"

These words shocked everyone present, except for the Emperor and Empress, Qiao Er and Hai Yu. However, the four of them did not expect it to be this palace maid, so they were waiting for Hai Jin to reveal the mystery.

Haijin walked up to the dead fake King Li, touched along his hair part, found the joint and ripped it off fiercely. A human skin mask appeared before everyone's eyes. The dead man's face was bluish-purple, but his features were still clearly not those of King Li.

One of the bolder dukes even went closer to take a look and shouted out.

"He really was an imposter!"

The fake King Li is dead, but the reason why the real King Li would disguise himself as a palace maid is puzzling to everyone. The Xuanjia Army stepped forward and tied him up. Haijin tried to tear off his human skin mask, but he couldn't find the opening no matter what he did.

"King Li is indeed formidable; even his skill in disguise surpasses that of others."

At this moment, the King Li, who was tied up, did not struggle. He just sneered and said, "Young Master Hai is quite capable. Since you have captured me, I have nothing to say. Do with me as you please."

The moment his real voice came out, everyone's expression changed.

A petite palace maid spoke with the voice of a mature man, which seemed very awkward. However, Haijin could not find where he was disguised, so he could only suppress the strange feeling for the time being. Then, he calmly clasped his hands in greeting to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Prince Li harbors malicious intentions, having someone impersonate him at the post station for many days while he himself hides in the palace. To say that Consort Tong was unaware of this is likely false. We urge Your Majesty to provide a clear ruling!"

Hearing this, the emperor had achieved all his goals.

And this whole drama was orchestrated by him. Whether it was poisoning the fake Prince Li or using Consort Tong's stomach pain to expose Consort Liang's poisoning, a seemingly harmonious palace banquet was actually orchestrated by him and his wife for several major events, which naturally had to be handled properly.

Therefore, the emperor stepped forward and addressed King Li.

"The child in Consort Tong's womb is yours, isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in shock, and some even wished they could shut their ears. If such a royal secret were to be leaked, how could they possibly survive?

So they all knelt down on the ground, prostrating themselves, not daring to utter a single word.

Prince Li was somewhat taken aback. He thought of Consort Tong, who was still giving birth in the side hall, and tried to distance himself from the matter. In any case, the emperor had no evidence against her, so at most the child would be burdened with some suspicion, but it wouldn't cost him his life.

Just as he was about to deny it, a royal physician came to report.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has just given birth to a daughter, but both mother and daughter have died due to poison attacking their hearts."

……

Silence reigned in the main hall.

Whether the child is King Li's or not is no longer important, because Heaven has already dealt with it.

"It's a daughter?"

Prince Li was puzzled. He had privately asked the chief physician, who said that it should clearly be a prince!

So, with a cold expression, he questioned, "Hmph, the imperial physician said it was a prince when he took the pulse, how come it turned out to be a daughter! Where did you hide my son?"

"You've confessed without being asked, what an idiot!"

Qiao Er blurted out a sentence out of the blue, his eyes full of contempt for Prince Li.

The others, upon hearing this, didn't look much better. They were all hoping the emperor would order them all to get out, because the less they knew about such things, the safer they would be!

Unfortunately, the emperor did not do so.

Faced with King Li's provocation, he spoke directly.

"Over the years, you have planted many spies in the capital. Even the Third Princess was killed by your subordinates and replaced. The so-called rebellion in Taizhou recently was also your idea, wasn't it? You wanted me to mobilize troops, which would have put the fat piece of the capital right in your mouth. Tell me, who are your accomplices? You alone could not have done it."

With just a few words, the emperor figured out what the King of Li was thinking.

"What are you saying? I don't understand!"

"Don't you understand? How about I show you the way?"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the Xuanjia Army rushed forward and quickly grabbed a man from the Eighth Family. The man was terrified and cried out that he was innocent, but he was tied up by the Xuanjia Army just like the King of Li. When they tore off his human skin mask, they revealed a face that was both familiar and surprising to everyone.

"Your Highness Prince Qi, it's you?"

Now, with his hair disheveled, Prince Qi's face is exactly the same as the one He Lingyi first saw, but he exudes a sense of unfamiliarity.

The Prince Qi whom the emperor impersonated when he was the crown prince was cold and aloof, and difficult to approach. But the real Prince Qi was somewhat ferocious. Even though their faces were the same, their temperaments were completely different.

He Lingyi looked at him and felt a sudden, inexplicable disgust.

The emperor was no different. Watching his relatives lose themselves in the pursuit of power, he felt no less pain than anyone else, but he simply couldn't show it.

The Crown Prince of Qi revealed a smirk and asked a question out of curiosity.

How did you recognize me?

"You probably forgot yourself, but since you were young, you've habitually adjusted your walking posture to have your left foot step out first. Even if the rhythm is off, you still have to adjust it back. You can disguise yourself or dress up as someone else, but I saw this habit the moment you walked in."

The Prince of Qi could not deny this; even he himself had not noticed the details, yet the Emperor had caught them, no wonder he had slipped up.

Seeing that he remained silent, the emperor continued to explain.
