"So you're saying, the reason why the empress suddenly fell ill wasn't because of the Princess An's forehead?" The Emperor asked coldly.

Zhang Zhu Liang was still very flustered. His eyes looked left and right, looking at the Imperial Consort's gaze. He wanted to wink at her, but was stopped by the mama beside him.

When she turned around, she realized that the Emperor had been staring at her the whole time.

Imperial Concubine's heart tightened as she hurriedly lowered her head.

Zhang Zhu Liang was one of Emperor's few youths, and because of Zhang Zhu Liang's birth, Emperor was quite satisfied. Thus, although he was not a high official in the imperial court, he was a popular figure in front of Emperor.

Because of his timid nature, he was not suppressed by anything in the Ministry of Rites.

But now, the imperial concubine gave Zhang Zhu Liang a meaningful glance in front of the Emperor and was truly courting death.

Baili Jinxiu's lips curved into a cold smile. Imperial Consort really couldn't hold back anymore. It seemed like the empress dowager had always been the one supporting his in the palace.

If not, why would the Imperial Concubine be so vicious and so sinister?

The imperial concubine would always be at a disadvantage when it came to herself, but if it was against other noble young ladies, it would be like fish on a plank, waiting to be slaughtered by the imperial concubine.

However, although the Imperial Concubine's methods were ruthless, it was still not enough to keep the Queen's identity a secret.

"Zhang Zhu Liang, take back that emotionless appearance of yours and reply." Emperor retracted his gaze from the imperial concubine and coldly said to Zhang Zhu Liang.

"Emperor, this is indeed the case. Even though the empress's phoenix body is ominous, it's not because of the word 'Princess An'. "

Assistant Minister Baili became anxious when he heard that and quickly shouted, "Emperor, the empress fell ill after esteemed wangfei toasted her tea. Isn't that the most obvious sign?

It was just a small diarrhea. How could it make the empress vomit blood? It must be because Princess An's fate is unknown and her birth was not good, that she was coerced by the Empress. "

He was already detested by the Emperor, if he did not help the imperial concubine settle the matter properly and did not kill Baili Jinxiu, he would not be able to turn the situation around.

Thinking about it, a sinister look flashed across Assistant Minister Baili's face as he looked at Baili Jinxiu.

This damnable girl caused his Prime Minister Baili Palace to fall so far, to the point where even his own child was hurt so pitifully by Baili Jinxiu.

Assistant Minister Baili formed a fist with his hand, wishing that he could go up and beat Baili Jinxiu to death to vent his anger.

"Emperor, the empress's illness is acting so quickly. "This chenqie dares to say that she'd rather believe it than not, so she shouldn't delay the empress's well-being."

Emperor's gaze swept across the faces of the people in the hall. His worries for the Queen's safety had been stirred up completely.

"Xiao Xuan, what do you think we should do?" The Emperor's lips curled up into a sneer as he asked Gong Xiaoxuan, who was the most proud of himself.

Baili Jinxiu was slightly surprised, because from the very beginning, this matter had revolved around him.

Now, Emperor suddenly asked Gong Xiaoxuan, was he planning to get Gong Xiaoxuan to say something?

Only, Gong Xiaoxuan seemed to have known that this matter would involve him.

He still had a cold and indifferent expression. After hearing Emperor's question, he said without blinking, "Regarding this matter, this prince believes in the wangfei."

Without the slightest hesitation, they stood in formation. Master Gong was just this domineering.

The bottom of Baili Jinxiu's heart was as sweet as honey water from a mouthful of it. Stepping forward, he asked: "Royal father, can this son ask you a question?"

When Emperor heard Gong Xiaoxuan's answer, he was slightly displeased and after hearing Baili Jinxiu's words, he said rather impatiently, "What else do you want to ask?"

Baili Jinxiu blinked his eyes, but wasn't embarrassed by Emperor's impatient attitude. Calmly, he asked, "This son wishes to ask, how does Assistant Minister Baili know so much about the Empress' illness?"

When the imperial concubine froze, Assistant Minister Baili's entire face changed.

As for the Emperor, he smashed the teacup that was placed on the side of the table towards the Assistant Minister Baili's head.

The faces of those who had been watching the show suddenly changed, especially the concubines. Their knees went weak and they all fell to their knees.

"Calm down Emperor."

"Bastard." Emperor was so angry by Baili Jinxiu's words that he almost fell over. Then, as if a cannon fodder was ignited inside his stomach, his rage burned like a prairie fire.

Looking at Assistant Minister Baili who was kneeling on the ground, Emperor shouted angrily: "Drag him out for us and beat him to death."

How could an official of the imperial court know anything about the Empress within the palace?

Baili Jinxiu only spoke out one question. Someone who had a secret relationship with the Assistant Minister Baili both internally and externally, would be able to tell the Assistant Minister Baili the news of the Empress.

And the only person who knew about the Queen was standing inside the Queen's palace … It was just a concubine.

One must know that when Eunuch Li went to notify Baili Jinxiu and his wife to enter the palace, he did not tell them about the situation of the Empress.

In addition, Baili Jinxiu did not look at the empress with so much fear in his eyes.

The Eunuch Liu changed his style of speech, and told Baili Jinxiu and Gong Xiaoxuan about it.

However, Assistant Minister Baili had blurted out the empress's illness out in a moment of anxiousness.

It was also because Zhang Zhu Liang's words were so precise that it blocked all the loopholes in Assistant Minister Baili. If one did not talk about the Queen's illness, how could Assistant Minister Baili's divination technique be displayed so accurately?

It was a pity that Baili Jinxiu did not plan to let those Assistant Minister Baili who wanted to destroy him, leave the Imperial Palace safely.

A fake father who wanted to kill him at any moment was definitely a ticking time bomb.

"Emperor, Emperor, this subject does not …" When Assistant Minister Baili finally reacted, he realized that he had been brought into the trap by Zhang Zhu Liang step by step.

However, Baili Jinxiu was like a dragnet that trapped him inside a trap.

Emperor squinted his eyes dangerously as he watched the Assistant Minister Baili being dragged out by the guards, while his chest was still heaving up and down.

When the imperial concubine heard about Emperor's order to kill the Assistant Minister Baili, she was so scared that her face changed.

Emperor slowly withdrew his gaze, looked at the Queen who looked like she fainted on the bed, and then looked at the Imperial Concubine who was kneeling on the ground in fear.

"Baili Jinxiu, you treat the empress. The remaining people... "All of you, get the hell back to me."
