The eunuch thought about it very seriously, "No one has ever come before."

Wei Qing's face completely darkened, "Let me give you a word of advice, if this matter was deliberately set up by someone, you won't escape your responsibility!"

The eunuch trembled even more violently when he saw her pair of cold eyes brimming with a fierce light.

He hastily wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and thought very seriously for a moment, "It seems that this servant felt very sleepy this morning, so I slept for a while."

Wei Qing squinted her eyes, and thought about it seriously, "Mo Qi!"

Mo Qi appeared when he heard her, "What orders do you have for me, Eldest Miss?"

Wei Qing asked Mo Qi to call him over, and when he saw the deliberately dirtied medical manual, she narrowed her eyes.

"Who do you think did it?"

Wei Qing snorted, "If you think with your knees, you can imagine that such a brainless thing is definitely related to the Empress."

The eunuch had just said that he suddenly felt very sleepy. This meant that someone had used incense.

Once the eunuch was unconscious, this person could easily sneak in, tear up the medical manual, and leave behind a large puddle of ink on top of it.

However, the empress had never thought that she would use charcoal.

Just as Xiao Qingqian was about to rush to the Yi Kun Palace, footsteps came from outside and the chorus was getting closer and closer.

Old Emperor actually came!

Wei Qing frowned, it really was as if rain had fallen on a rainy night.

The moment the yellow glow appeared in the Compendium Pavilion, the crowd hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects.

"Wei Qing, we were just about to pass by. Seeing that the candles are lit, we came to take a look."

Wei Qing did not panic at all, only that the eunuch was worried that she would be implicated, and he anxiously shouted towards the Old Emperor: "Your majesty, it is really not this servant who has failed in his duty, this servant is also not clear as to how the medical manual ended up like this."

Old Emperor was confused when he heard him. He frowned and looked at him for a while, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Wei Qing quickly cut him off and said, "Your majesty, look at this medical manual …"

When Old Emperor's gaze moved to the large puddle of ink on the medical book, his expression suddenly changed. He snatched the medical book from Wei Qing's hands and scolded with a voice as cold as ice: "We have previously said that the books in the library are all extremely precious. How did they become like this?"

These books were extremely precious and could not be measured in gold or silver at all.

The eunuch's entire body trembled like a sieve, as he continuously said "I don't know", Old Emperor's gaze once again moved onto Wei Qing's face, the temperature around him quickly dropped.

"Wei Qing, you explain it to us."

Wei Qing said unhurriedly, "Your Majesty, a page has been torn apart here."

Old Emperor's originally creased eyebrows became deeper. If Wei Qing were to say that she dirtied the medical book, it would have some credibility, but she would definitely not tear away a page.

Wei Qing had been carefully observing Old Emperor's expression the entire time, but when she saw the space between Old Emperor's brows widen slightly, he finally said, "Your majesty, today, I used a charcoal brush, so I didn't manage to get these ink stains myself."

Old Emperor slightly frowned, "Charcoal?"

Wei Qing presented the charcoal pen with her hands. "This kind of brush won't dirty the books, furthermore, it'll tear as many slips of paper as are wrapped outside no matter how long it is used, it's very convenient."

Other than Wei Qing, who else has been here before? Old Emperor's pupils trembled as she stared coldly at the trembling eunuch.

The eunuch's forehead was covered in sweat. If he knew who else was here, he wouldn't be so apprehensive.

"Your majesty, just now, Eunuch Yang said that he felt unusually sleepy this morning, so he narrowed his eyes for a moment. If I am not wrong, someone must have used a knockout drug. "

Old Emperor's face was already as dark as ink. For the sake of framing Wei Qing, she actually did not hesitate to destroy such a precious book. This was truly going too far!

Wei Qing turned her head to look at Xiao Qingqian, and said, "Your Majesty, I already have a suspect. If all goes well, I can definitely get him to jump out by himself by the next day at the latest. However, the only pity is that these two pages are destroyed. "

Xiao Qingqian suddenly said: "royal father, I can even think of using charcoal brushes, the person who destroyed the medical book cannot be Qing`er!"

Old Emperor was naturally convinced of this, but it was such a pity to tear off this page and see how the page was stained with ink.

Wei Qing frowned and pondered for a moment, "If Your Majesty trusts me, then why don't you just let me handle this matter, how about it?"

Facing Wei Qing's pair of shiny eyes, Old Emperor was stunned for a moment. heavily sighed, "Forget it!"

"Your majesty, let me go back and see if I can find a way to clean up this destroyed page. If I can make up for this medicinal prescription, that would naturally be a good thing, but if not, I hope the emperor can stop blaming me!"

With things having progressed to this point, the Old Emperor could only allow Wei Qing to give it a try.

Xiao Qingqian's face was grave, all the books in this Compendium Pavilion were written in ink, once smeared with ink, it would definitely not be able to recover.

Not long after Old Emperor left, Wei Qing lightly scratched the palm of Xiao Qingqian's hand, "Alright, I have my own plans."

Hearing this, a glint flashed past Xiao Qingqian's eyes.

Did she say that on purpose?

But what was his intention?

Wei Qing laughed, and looked at Eunuch Yang, "Eunuch Yang, I will have to trouble you with something."

Eunuch Yang quickly said, "If Princess Chu has any orders, this servant will do her best to fulfill it."

Wei Qing crooked her finger at him and whispered a few words.

Eunuch Yang suddenly frowned and unfolded it. Finally, he nodded with a grave expression.

Seeing that the time was not early, Wei Qing dragged Xiao Qingqian and temporarily left the Imperial Palace.

Today, when they passed through the forbidden area again, they didn't hear any ghostly cries.

"What did you find out?" Wei Qing asked after getting on the carriage.

"The security around the forbidden area is very tight. There's no way to get near it."

Wei Qing had already experienced this last time at the palace feast.

"Why did you say that you can clean the ink just now?" Xiao Qingqian asked, seeing Wei Qing's erratic gaze.

Wei Qing smirked, "If you don't say it like that, how can you make the empress angry? I just want her to know that I am fortunate. No matter how much she wants to frame me, she will be disappointed and return home! "

Xiao Qingqian looked at her deeply, fully aware that she not only had a foolproof plan in mind, but also that this time, the Empress would very likely throw a rock at him and throw it at his feet.

When the carriage reached the Prince Chu’s Mansion, Wei Qing headed towards her sleeping quarters.

Xiao Qingqian quickly followed, "Why are you walking so fast?"

Wei Qing said, "If I go faster, then I can make the empress die faster."

Looking at her slender back, Xiao Qingqian helplessly shook his head.

Wei Qing called the secret guard over and gave him a few words of advice. Then, he peacefully fell asleep.
