C67 chief culprit

Not long after, Shen Qingwan was rescued by someone. However, when they looked around, she was nowhere to be seen.

"Where's the princess?" He grabbed the arm of a eunuch with a questioning look.

The eunuch shook his head. She could only let out a bitter laugh and let him go.

Being supported by everyone back to his own room, Lian Yun was so scared that he lost his seventh soul. He looked at Shen Qing Wan who was lying on the bed in a daze. Finally, the mama brought in the imperial physician, instructing a few palace maids to change her clothes and dry her hair. Afterwards, she made a large pot of ginger soup to ward off the cold.

Lian Yun waited for the mama to finish arranging everything before she recovered her wits and cried out loud, "If I knew it earlier, I would have gone with the Empress. If I had, I would have protected the Empress."

Shen Qingwan patted her back and comforted her, "Aren't I fine here?" Your esteemed mistress is really lucky, you don't have to worry. " As she said this, she felt that Fu Xinyan was too abnormal.

When Fu Yuheng rushed over, she was resting on the bed. "Is my beloved concubine doing well?" Such a weak person like her was a rare sight, but unexpectedly, he made people feel some heartache.

"This concubine is fine, I've troubled Your Majesty." He replied softly, yet in his heart, he was blaming the talkative servant who had informed him of this matter.

"You …" He hurried over as soon as he heard she was in the water, but forgot to ask about the situation.

Shen Qingwan's face was indifferent, as if the one who fell into the water was not her. "I just accidentally fell into the water, don't worry, Your Majesty." With a few words, Fu Yuheng did not ask any further questions and left to busy herself with a few more orders.

Ever since she fell into the water, she had not come into contact with Fu Xinyan for a few days.

Half lying on the bed was a small mattress, while Shen Qingwan held a book. There was a fragrant tea on the table, as if it was isolated from the world. Anyone who looked at it would feel like they were looking at a fairy.

At this moment, a knock on the door came from outside.

"Empress, someone has come to report." "Lian Yun came in from outside the door, her face full of suspicion. She said that the princess wanted to apologize to him and make up for the mistakes she made previously. So I specially came to invite the Empress to the princess' place. "

"Are you speaking the truth?" Shen Qingwan felt that something was wrong. Why would the princess ask her to come over just to apologize? Or did she figure it out and tell her the truth?

As he thought of this, he felt that it would be better if he went over to take a look. "Alright, I understand. I'll be there in a bit." As he spoke, he sat up.

On the other hand, Lian Yun was slightly unhappy, "Empress, the princess just pushed you into the lake a while ago, why do you still believe her!?" She stomped her feet and pushed Shen Qingwan onto the bed, "Your servant forbids you from going."

"Kneel!" However, she suddenly shouted out, shocking Lian Yun to the point that she knelt down on the ground with a thump.

"Do you know your wrongs?" He frowned and stared at the person on the ground, "You should know who is the master!" In actuality, she didn't have the heart to blame her. It was only because she was a little anxious that she came up with this plan. She naturally knew that she was worried about her, but at the same time, she was also very worried about Fu Xinyan. Although she had some concerns, she still had to keep her appointment.

Leaving Lian Yun in the house, Shen Qingwan followed the servant all the way to the front door of Fu Xinyan's house.

He stood outside the room and knocked on the door softly. However, there was no sound coming from inside. It was none other than Zi Xin. For some reason, she felt that there was something about this palace maid that was different from the other palace maids, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Shen Qingwan's gaze was focused on her for a while, causing her scalp to go numb. Her gaze flickered, as she lowered her head and avoided her gaze, "Concubine Xian, please go in, the princess is waiting for you inside!"

Perhaps she was overthinking it, Shen Qingwan thought as she shook her head.

"Come in." Fu Xinyan moaned softly. Her voice sounded a little weak, which made Shen Qingwan even more worried. Could it be that she was sick again? She didn't think too much and walked straight in.

"How is the princess?" For some reason, she felt dizzy and her temples throbbed. Only then did he slow down his steps. He gently stepped forward and gently placed his hand on his forehead.

"Mm …" Shen Qingwan felt a bit more at ease after hearing the reply, but her vigilance had also eased up by quite a bit.

However, the more he walked, the more confused he felt. When he opened the curtain, he could see a faint figure inside. "Your Highness, what do you want to say to me?" He rubbed his forehead and realized that his vision had become blurry.

She slowly walked towards the person on the bed. Suddenly, she felt dizzy. Then, her vision turned black and she fell to the ground.

"AHH!" It was only when a woman's scream rang out that Shen Qingwan suddenly woke up, followed by the sound of the door being knocked open.

This is... Blood! He hastily lowered his head to look at his hands. Sure enough, both of his hands were sticky with fresh red blood that had been splattered on the floor.

She suddenly raised her head and covered her mouth with her hands and feet, not daring to believe what had just happened. However, she instantly felt her hands and feet go cold, because she found herself kneeling in front of Fu Xinyan's bed. A knife was stuck in her chest, and blood had dyed half of the bed red.

Holding back her fear, Shen Qingwan's hands trembled as she knelt at the side and turned to look at the door. The palace maid stood at the door and looked at her with fear in her eyes.

"AHH!" The palace maid loudly shouted and abruptly ran out. However, she only sat blankly on the spot.

What had happened? She clearly didn't sit down, but she …

Before long, the area outside the door was full of people. She lowered her head and scanned everyone's face with her eyes.

This matter was certain that she had overlooked something. She knew that she definitely hadn't done anything and that even the blood on her hands had just stained the ground. However, the princess had clearly just spoken to her, so how could she be so quick …

"Concubine Xian!" A voice called out from outside the door. It was the Gui mama beside the Empress.

Shen Qing Wan's heart skipped a beat, the hollowness in her eyes disappeared as she looked coldly at the door.

Heh, it was her carelessness that made her forget the existence of such a possibility.

It seemed that she had really looked down on the harem. She hadn't thought that she would fall into a trap here today, but since that was the case, she could only hold it in her heart and discuss further.
