Ah!" Even though she was wearing clothes, she could still see the traces of purple and green on her body. She only had one thought after seeing so many people standing outside the side hall, and that was that she was finished!
The fifth prince seemed to be startled by the shout. He looked at the sullen Imperial Concubine Liu with confusion, and then saw the scattered clothes and the pale face Yu Qi.
In his heart, the Fifth Prince understood that he'd been tricked by someone. "Hurry up and serve the Fifth Prince when he changes his clothes!" Imperial Concubine Liu said as she passed by the Fifth Prince and Freshmen Qi.
He walked to the inner hall and sat down. It was impossible to tell what Imperial Concubine Liu was thinking at this moment. Soon, the Emperor and Chu Yueli rushed to the Supreme Peace Hall.
As soon as they entered the side chamber, the two of them knew what had happened. They had a bad feeling about the Emperor wanting them to come.
When he entered the inner room, Yuanzhi took a quick look and didn't see anything unusual. Just as she was about to let go of her worries, she saw Zhao Yuanzhi hugging the messy Yuanzhi.
The Fifth Prince was sitting beside him. The Emperor strode to Imperial Concubine Liu's side and held her hand. "My beloved concubine, is there anything you need from here?"
Imperial Concubine Liu raised her head when she heard these words, her eyes slightly red. "Chenqie failed to live up to the emperor's trust and allowed such a thing to happen during chenqie's banquet."
When the emperor saw Imperial Concubine Liu's current state, his heart ached even more. He immediately turned his head to look at the group of people below him before finally shifting his gaze to the Fifth Prince.
"Yun'er, tell me what exactly happened!" At this moment, the emperor's expression was extremely unsightly. As a king, his aura was immediately shifted to the Fifth Prince.
When the Fifth Prince heard this, he immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Please enlighten me, Imperial Father …" After hearing the Fifth Prince explain everything from the beginning until the end, the Emperor's expression became even worse.
However, there was no doubt that the Fifth Prince's words were true. This was because a few years ago, when the Fifth Prince was participating in the Imperial Family Hunt, he had accidentally been slapped to pieces by a black bear.
Even when several other imperial physicians had joined hands to diagnose him, he had barely managed to preserve his life. His knowledge of the world had been completely destroyed, and from then on, the Fifth Prince began to slowly fade away from everyone's sight.
He didn't expect such a thing to happen this time. The emperor's hand slapped onto the handle. "Someone, come!" Investigate thoroughly the people and events at the Flower Viewing Banquet for me! I want to know what happened as soon as possible! "
"Hurry, someone bring the lady down to clean up." Imperial Concubine Liu took the opportunity to speak up. Actually, she didn't have much of an impression of this sort of thing.
Even though it was rare for Qi to marry into the Fifth Prince's house, it was hard to say what kind of status she would have if she married into the Fifth Prince's family.
Very soon, Qi had already washed up and returned to the side hall. However, her face was still pale and looked somewhat pitiful.
Imperial Concubine Liu secretly rolled her eyes. After waiting for a while, she saw the eunuch at the emperor's side return with her men. "Your Majesty, when this old servant was investigating at the banquet, I saw that this maid was sneaky and brought over."
As soon as he finished speaking, a court eunuch brought a small palace maid to the center. The palace maid was already trembling with fear as she glanced at the emperor, and before anyone could say anything, she immediately said, "Your Majesty, spare me!" Spare me! Don't kill this slave! It was Miss Cheng! Before the banquet began, Miss Cheng asked this servant to give a bottle of food to this servant so that she could pour it into the princess' wine. However, this servant didn't agree. This servant wasn't the one who made it. This really wasn't made by this servant! "
After hearing the little palace maid's words, Imperial Concubine Liu immediately said, "Go to Yongan Palace and ask for Miss Cheng! I want to see who gave it to her! She actually dares to drug Jin He Princess under my nose! "
The chief eunuch glanced at the emperor, and seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, he turned around and left towards Yongan Palace. Cheng Yuan was still confused when she was brought here.
"Is that her!?"
The little palace maid immediately turned to look at Cheng Yuan before quickly turning her head back and nodding as she cried, "It's her. It's Miss Cheng who wanted me to drug Jin He Princess, but I really refused!"
Cheng Yuan also saw the little palace maid kneeling on the ground and her expression immediately changed. Hearing her words, Cheng Yuan's legs went weak and she kneeled on the ground, "It's not me! Not me! I didn't! "I did not!"
After hearing Cheng Yuan's words, the head eunuch took a step forward and said with a smile, "Miss Cheng, you have to be clear about this. Did you not get this young palace maid to drug Princess Jin He, or did you not succeed in the end?"
"No, I was right about everything! Not me, not me! " Cheng Yuan kept shaking her head as if she was really wronged.
When the palace maid heard Cheng Yuan's words, she immediately ignored it and pulled up her sleeves, revealing the green bracelet on her wrist.
"Eunuch!" "Eunuch, this was given to me by Miss Cheng. Miss Cheng said that although this matter wasn't settled yet, it's not guaranteed that there won't be a next time. So she told me not to tell anyone else about this."
As she said this, the little palace maid took off the bracelet on her wrist and handed it to the head eunuch. The head eunuch took the bracelet and with a single glance, he knew that this jade bracelet was extremely good.
It wasn't something an ordinary person could casually carry around, much less the court lady. The eunuch brought out the bangle, and the palace maid behind Imperial Concubine Liu immediately took the bangle from her hand.
She then brought it in front of the emperor and Imperial Concubine Liu. Imperial Concubine Liu looked at it for a moment, then looked at Cheng Yuan icily. "What else do you have to say!"
Imperial Concubine Liu's voice suddenly became louder. Cheng Yuan knew that if she couldn't explain properly, she definitely wouldn't be able to escape, so she looked over at Yu Qi.
Qi, on the other hand, was even more frightened by Cheng Yuan's glance. As expected, she heard Cheng Yuan say, "Your majesty, Imperial Concubine! It really isn't my daughter, that pill was more fresh than the one Qi gave me! "She said that she couldn't bear to see Wei Jin and the princess getting pampered by the imperial concubine, so she told me to drug Jin He. She said that the most he would do was let Jin He make a fool of himself in front of everyone!"
