However, Mu Tinng had no choice but to answer the question, and Mu Tinng's eyes were on Dehai's side, so Dehai had to step forward and observe Mu Tinng's expression while he said, "The servant didn't dare to say anything, but the servant always felt that something was strange. Empress Dowager treated the empress as if she were her own child. If the empress could do such a thing to Empress Dowager... That's a little hard to say."
Dehai's words made Zeng Shuo scold him as an old fox. After thinking about it, he said, "If we go back to the emperor, according to the current evidence, the empress is the most suspicious. However, as director Dehai said, Empress Dowager had a good relationship with the empress, and it was difficult to establish a motive for murder. Besides, the assassination of Empress Dowager was of no benefit to the empress. I find this very suspicious."
Mu Tinng's love for Su Mianyue, as two close ministers, was willing to sell well at this time, no matter what the final result, they were right.
Mu Tinng heard this and did not speak. Zeng Shuo retreated to the side to listen and sent. The imperial physician soon came to report Empress Dowager's situation.
After a whole night of rescue, Empress Dowager was finally out of danger. As a member of Empress Dowager's group, Imperial Physician Xie knew what to say and what not to say. He only told Empress Dowager the truth and kept silent. Imperial Physician Zhang was as silent as Imperial Physician Xie on this matter.
Hearing that Empress Dowager was temporarily free, Mu Tinng's heart was finally beating normally. As for when Empress Dowager would wake up, he was not in a hurry.
"These few days, the two ministers of love have been living in ning pavilion. If anything happens to Empress Dowager, let me know immediately," Mu Tinng said coldly.
Ning pavilion was a courtyard in the southwest corner of Cining Palace. When there was a big banquet in the palace, Empress Dowager would invite some women to live in the palace because of the situation in the court. The people of low rank would be placed there, which would not disturb Empress Dowager's peace and quiet, but also show his royal grace.
However, Mu Tinng said he wanted the two of them to stay there. One was to have house arrest, the other was that Empress Dowager could not live without the imperial doctor. Imperial Physician Xie and Imperial Physician Zhang could take turns to wash up, but they would have to wait in the inner room day and night.
Mu Tinng stepped into his bedroom to see Empress Dowager, who was still unconscious, and his eyes turned red.
After so many years of court strife, Empress Dowager had lived and died several times to protect Mu Tinng. Now, Empress Dowager, who was supposed to enjoy his old age, was seriously injured.
"Mother, don't worry. I will find the real culprit." Holding Empress Dowager's hand, Mu Tinng whispered a promise.
Half an hour later, Mu Tinng set up the phoenix palace. Su Mianyue was in a complicated mood when he heard that the emperor had arrived.
Especially since Mu Tinng didn't interrogate her first, Su Mianyue's heart sank little by little, but she knew that it was not her own emotions, but the remnants of her predecessor's emotions.
"Is a man who doesn't trust you really worth loving?" Covering his chest, Su Mianyue sneered and scolded his predecessor for being a fool.
If Mu Tinng believed that she was innocent, even if she had to be formally put under house arrest, he shouldn't have interrogated the rest of Phoenix Palace.
However, mu ting did not send her to prison at the first time, which made Su Mianyue unable to understand Mu Tinng's thoughts.
After waiting for half an hour, Mu Tinng strode in and dehai was left outside.
When their eyes met, Su Mianyue actually sympathized with Mu Tinng, so what if he was above all others? Her close relatives could not protect her well, and they could not even dare to love someone presumptuously.
"How is Empress Dowager?" Su Mianyue was the first to speak with genuine concern.
Seeing that Su Mianyue did not seem pretentious, Mu Tinng's cold air faded a little and said, "There is no danger of life for now."
"That's good." Su Mianyue nodded and heaved a heavy sigh, but didn't know what to say to Mu Tinng to defend himself?
"Doesn't the queen want to explain?" Mu Tinng's eyes were bloodshot, both because he hadn't closed his eyes all night and because he was angry.
Mu Tinng's anger was that at this point in time, Su Mianyue still didn't believe his sincerity. If Mu Tinng stabbed Su Mianyue Wuqing, whoever stabbed Empress Dowager last night, Wuqing would be sent to prison, and the Su Family would be implicated in nine races.
As for the real culprit, mu ting would secretly deal with it. This was the decision that an emperor should make.
"Does the emperor believe in his concubines?" Su Mianyue opened his mouth softly, his face pale from a wound in his chest, to a slight tenderness.
"I want to hear the truth from the empress herself." Mu Tinng's voice was still cold, and there was something deep in his eyes that Su Mianyue could not understand.
"Your concubine was framed." Su Mianyue smiled bitterly and stretched out his right hand, which he had deliberately cut last night, saying, "I know now that I must have all the evidence and evidence pointing to me as the murderer who tried to assassinate Empress Dowager. But if it was really done by me, no one would force me to hang myself and fake the illusion that I was afraid of committing suicide."
"Did someone assassinate you?" Mu Tinng's face turned cold. Su Mianyue's hand was not bandaged. Although the blood on it had solidified, it was not difficult to see how badly it hurt last night.
Su Mianyue nodded and put down his injured hand carelessly. His eyes were slightly red and he asked, "The emperor said that he would not let his concubines get hurt again. Now that his concubines have not been convicted, does the emperor not care about his concubines'life or death?"
Su Mianyue jiyi's disappointed expression made Mu Tinng's heart tighten, but he did not know how to answer Su Mianyue's words. If he knew that Su Mianyue just wanted to test Mu Tinng's attitude, and then decided to leave the palace after recovering from his injury, or to change his plan and leave early, Mu Tinng would be furious.
"Dehai, pass on the imperial physician," Mu Tinng said in a deep voice.
"No need. The emperor should know that the most important thing in Phoenix Palace is the wound medicine." Su Mianyue turned away and said in a slightly choked voice, "I just want to know if the emperor wants me to live or die. Otherwise, no amount of wound medicine can save me."
"I'm here to bandage you." Mu Tinng stepped forward and tried to pull su mianyue's hand, but she withdrew her hand and hid it.
"Thank you for your kindness, but the blood is not bad luck. Let Biwu help me bandage it." Su Mianyue lowered his eyes and asked mu ting for help in disguise.
Mu Tinng's hand was frozen there. Thinking that Biwu had just been tortured, Su Mianyue would be heartbroken and even angry at him. He said, "Biwu is a witness. I can't give her back to you for the time being. I'll assign someone else to serve you."
"No, I'm used to Biwu's service. I hope the emperor will be satisfied." Su Mianyue looked up with tears in her beautiful eyes. It was not that she wanted to act, but that she guessed how much Biwu might suffer. She choked and said, "Your majesty, please."
This was the first time Su Mianyue had begged mu ting. Mu Tinng hesitated for a moment before saying, "Tomorrow, Zeng Shuo will send Biwu back to you."
Reaching out to wipe away Su Mianyue's tears, Mu Tinng's eyes glowed.
"Thank you, emperor long en." Su Mianyue nodded, no longer rejecting the touch, but his eyes were cold.
One or two of them schemed against her, or bullied her. Did they all think that she, Su Mianyue, was dead?
After personally bandaging the wound on Su Mianyue's hand, Mu Tinng looked up at the Imperial Guard outside, his eyes filled with murderous intent to injure the mother of a country under the heavy guard of the Imperial Guard. These people had no need to keep it.
Just as she was getting the medicine box, Mu Tinng had checked the inner chamber to make sure that Su Mianyue was not lying. She was really attacked, not to mention whether Su Mianyue was asking for help. The Imperial Guard should have heard the sound of the porcelain falling down. Even if Su Mianyue was guilty, as long as Mu Tinng did not stop revoking the imperial edict for a day, Su Mianyue was the mistress of the harem.
"Your concubines know that your majesty is worried about Empress Dowager, but your majesty still has to deal with the affairs of the court. Your concubines are in an awkward situation and can't share any of your worries with your majesty. Please take care of your dragon body. Even if it's for Empress Dowager's sake, please cherish your dragon body in order to care for your majesty's people." Seeing that Mu Tinng was about to leave, Su Mianyue said some caring words in a soft voice, but her heart couldn't help but vomit. It was so disgusting.
"Including the queen?" Mu Tinng paused and looked sideways at Su Mianyue.
Hesitantly nodding, Su Mianyue squeezed out a strong smile and said, "I'm still waiting for the emperor to prove my innocence. I hope the emperor's dragon body is healthy. Just..." Su Mianyue bit his lip and paused for a moment, "If there is no evidence to prove my innocence, please don't go public with this matter. I would like a piece of white silk to end my life. Please don't be guilty of any crime and let more innocent people be implicated because of my wife."
"I am also the emperor of the Tianlan. Besides me, no one in the world can touch my empress." Mu Tinng spoke arrogantly, completely forgetting how many times Su Mianyue had been assassinated.
"Your majesty..." He lowered his head slightly. Su Mianyue hid his disdainful expression and said in a low voice, "People from Cining Palace, please have your majesty investigate thoroughly. People close to Empress Dowager are the most important."
Su Mianyue, who did not want to interfere, thought of Empress Dowager's concern for her and said this.
Mu Tinng didn't answer. He just took a deep look at Su Mianyue and turned to leave.
Sure that Mu Tinng would not turn back, Su Mianyue raised his hand to wipe away the tears from his eyes and mocked himself, "Su Mianyue, you are getting more and more back to life. How dare you use such a low-level means to seek a few days of peace? You have no face to see old jiangdong father."
Lying lazily on the soft couch, Su Mianyue sighed and worried about Biwu's current situation, but from Mu Tinng's attitude, at least biwu would survive.
Su Mianyue did not know that her Biwu had saved a small life, but the Imperial Guard that guarded Phoenix Palace had to be collectively killed. Although there were innocent people among them, the rule that the emperor would rather kill a thousand people than let go of one was not to give these people a chance to plead.
Although Mu Tinng had imposed a ban, with the existence of people like Gu Linng and the meticulous work planted in other countries in the palace, the news of Empress Dowager being stabbed, seriously injured and unconscious still spread outside the palace, instantly stirring up the whole of Shangjing City. After Mu Tinng heard the news, it was too late to ban him.
On the second day, after the joint petition of the various dynasties was canceled, Su Chengye, who was dragging his sick body to court, was in a coma due to vomiting blood in anger, but he could not stop the voices of the crusades. This was the first time that the Su Chengye clan had encountered such a heavy blow.
"All the ministers of love should know more about etiquette and law with their salaries. Now that there is insufficient evidence and Empress Dowager is still unconscious, you have jointly forced me to be deposed. Don't you want to take me instead?" Mu Tinng's face was dark, and he said a few angry words before retreating.
For three days in a row, the imperial study was filled with memorials for the deceased. Mu Tinng's people were angry and wanted to leave the court, but the officials led by gu taifu knelt at the entrance of the imperial study to ask for orders.
In the phoenix palace, Su Mianyue did not know what was going on outside. For the past few days, she had been dragging her injured body to take care of Biwu, who was dying. She had not had a good rest for days and nights. Her eyes were bloodshot.
