"I'm going in to see Imperial Concubine Ning." The empress sighed softly, still thinking about Imperial Concubine Ning. She turned around and was about to enter the room.
"Esteemed Empress." Tang Ke suddenly called out to her.
"What's wrong?" The empress stopped in her tracks and looked at her. "Is there anything else Xin`er needs?"
"Actually, Imperial Concubine Ning is already dead." Tang Ke knew in his heart the Empress's relationship with Imperial Concubine Ning. If he knew that something had happened to Imperial Concubine Ning, the empress would definitely feel hurt, but a dead person was still a dead person. Although she was a doctor, she could only treat the living, and saved the dead.
"What?" What did you say? Didn't you just say that Imperial Concubine Ning didn't die? Didn't Imperial Concubine Ning just give you a pillow? The palace maids went in as well, "the empress was so shocked that her breathing became ragged as she asked a series of questions."
The others were once again stunned. They looked at Tang Kexin in disbelief.
He had long predicted that Imperial Concubine Ning wouldn't be able to survive. However, he didn't understand how this woman would know all of this if Imperial Concubine Ning hadn't been able to survive. Furthermore, she knew it so well that she even told him some of the details.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to scare Xiao Xiang to that extent.
"That's right, didn't Imperial Concubine Ning pass a pillow just now?" Ye Lan Chen was also stunned.
"Right, right, I saw it too. That's Imperial Concubine Ning, right? And now you say that Imperial Concubine Ning didn't come back to life? Could it be, could it have been a ghost?" Imperial Concubine Ming swallowed hard and quickly escaped to the furthest corner of the room.
"That's not the real Imperial Concubine Ning, but I let Dong'er dress up." Tang Ke's red lips moved as he shouted, "Dong'er, come out."
When Dong'er heard Tang Kexin's words, she immediately opened the door and walked out. The first thing that appeared in front of the crowd was a face on one side, which really resembled Imperial Concubine Ning, at least seventy percent. Just now, the face that flashed past the door was more like this half face.
Especially that eyebrow, that corner of her eyes, that smile … they were really very similar. They were very similar. However, when Dong'er's face turned to the side, and then to the front, it didn't look like her at all.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked speechless.
"I can only make Dong'er look like Imperial Concubine Ning at the corners of her eyes and lips. Luckily, Dong'er's profile looks quite similar to Imperial Concubine Ning, but of course, her facial features are completely different." Tang Ke Xin could see the doubt in everyone's eyes and explained.
"So, that was not Imperial Concubine Ning's pillow, but Dong'er's?" Senior Concubine Ming heaved a long sigh of relief before finally moving closer.
"Yes, it's Miss Dong'er. Imperial Concubine Ning, she really …" The face of the palace maid that followed after him was clearly filled with grief.
"If Imperial Concubine Ning was disguised as Dong'er and didn't come back to life, then how did you know about those things?" "And those who know better?" The emperor returned to his senses and looked at Tang Ke Xin, still unable to conceal the astonishment in his eyes.
If Imperial Concubine Ning hadn't come back to life, those matters would only have been known by Xiao Xiang and that man back then. How could Tang Kexin have known?
"Reporting to the Emperor, this humble girl calculated it based on the situation at the scene." When the Emperor asked, Tang Kexin naturally couldn't refuse to answer. Moreover, it was impossible for her to explain herself clearly. Otherwise, others would think that she had something to do with the culprit.
"Calculated?" "Are you saying that what you just said was all calculated by you, and that you guessed all of it?" This time, the emperor was dumbstruck as well.
She had described it so precisely and in such detail just now, yet now she said that everything was guessed and calculated?
How, how is this possible?
"Right." Tang Kexin slowly nodded her head. Even though it sounded inconceivable to them, the truth was still like this.
She could be considered to have used the scene to restore the truth.
It would be more accurate to have advanced technology in the present generation.
However, reality proved that her calculations were very accurate. Otherwise, he wouldn't have scared Xiao Xiang and forced her to plead guilty.
Ye Lanjue's eyes flashed. Calculate? This woman's ability is really not small, she can even deduce this?
"Then tell me, how did you calculate this?" The Emperor's interest was piqued. Although Xiao Xiang died and didn't ask for anything, it at least proved that Ye Lanchen was innocent. Thus, the Emperor's mood at the moment was still pretty good.
The emperor was also really curious. He didn't know what Tang Kexin used to make such accurate calculations.
"It's impossible to scheme all of this in the Peace Palace without the people from the Peace Palace, so I'm sure there must be a traitor, and it must be someone close to Imperial Concubine Ning. The questions I asked before I came out were all to find out who the traitor is." Tang Kexin once again spoke up as she slowly explained, "By asking the questions and the reactions of the maids, this one is certain that Xiao Xiang is the traitor."
"Mm, with your observation skills, I don't doubt that. However, how do you know the details of the situation?" The emperor slightly nodded his head. In front of him, he was able to believe it, but Tang Kexin could clearly describe the details behind it. He truly felt that it was inconceivable.
"This humble one carefully examined Imperial Concubine Ning's body for traces of happiness …" Tang Kexin continued to explain. This was the most crucial part.
"How can you be sure it was when you were having fun? What difference does it make? You can still tell? " The corners of Imperial Concubine Ming's lips drew back, as she couldn't help but ask again.
"Senior Concubine Ming has been in the palace for so many years. Could it be that she doesn't even know what traces of pleasure she leaves behind. This is different from the usual injuries, or perhaps the marks she intentionally makes. Could it be that Senior Concubine Ming isn't even clear about this?"
She said she was innocent and virgin. Was there a need to pretend to be pure?
After all these years in the palace, was that really necessary?
Imperial Concubine Ming's complexion changed. It was a little red, a little awkward, but there was also a little bit of ruthlessness and hatred in it. The emperor's eyes also seemed to darken visibly.
"Hmph, I don't know, but you seem to understand me very well. Could it be that you've experienced it before?" Right now, Imperial Concubine Ming was clearly a bit angry from embarrassment, and her words were clearly more of a personal attack.
"That's the theory." Tang Kexin shrugged her shoulders and nonchalantly replied. However, a peculiar glint flashed in the depths of her eyes.
Thinking about that night in the temple, that man had left those marks on her body, or perhaps it was because of those marks on her body that he had left those marks, she was so sure.
The corner of Night Tide Jue's lips curved up slightly as he lightly floated in the air, looking at her. In theory?
In theory? In fact, she had indeed experienced it. He was very clear on how crazy she had been that night.
He also clearly knew that the scars he left on her body at that time were definitely not few.
He had also noticed her unnaturalness just now. Thus, he was even more certain that she was the woman from that night.
However, because she had removed the bite marks that he had left on her shoulder that night, and had removed the most crucial piece of evidence, he was left with no other choice for the moment.
"Theoretically? "If you don't put it into practice, how could you …" Imperial Concubine Ming's lips revealed a hint of ridicule, and her intention to attack was even more obvious.
"Enough." The emperor suddenly growled in a low voice, looking at Imperial Concubine Ming with eyes full of warning.
Imperial Concubine Ming's body stiffened, but she could only stop herself from speaking.
"But, keep talking." When the emperor looked at Tang Kexin, his expression immediately eased up, and his voice also became noticeably softer.
Senior Concubine Ming saw the difference in the Emperor's heart towards Tang Ke and felt even more angry. When she saw the Emperor's gaze towards Tang Ke Xin, her pupils abruptly dilated.
Your Majesty, it can't be that Your Majesty has set his eyes on Tang Ke, right? Then would the emperor allow Tang Ke's heart to enter the palace?
Imperial Concubine Ming's slightly drooping eyes held a bit more hatred, while her hands hidden under her sleeves subconsciously tightened and tightened as well.
Of course, at this moment, neither the emperor nor Tang Kexin noticed Imperial Concubine Ming. Neither of them knew what she was thinking, nor had they had the mood to pay any attention to her.
Aside from the marks on Imperial Concubine Ning's body, that person also left a trail of evidence in Imperial Concubine Ming's body. That person must have already planned this long ago, if he wanted to completely suppress the evidence, he could only give the fourth prince a short-acting medicine, causing him to lose consciousness and make him lose consciousness. Since the fourth prince is unconscious, it is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing. Tang Kexin's words were relatively reserved. No matter what, this was ancient times. If she said too much, then it really wouldn't be good.
Of course, because of the reserved nature of her words, there was definitely someone who wouldn't understand. In reality, Tang Kexin didn't expect everyone to understand, as long as the emperor understood.
"What evidence?" However, there was still someone who couldn't help but ask the same question. This time, it wasn't Imperial Concubine Ming but the curious baby Ye Lanchen.
Tang Kexin was clearly stunned for a moment. Her eyes quickly turned toward Ye Lanchen as she blinked several times. She thought that someone might not understand. She also thought that someone might ask this question, but she really didn't think that Ye Lanchen would ask this question!
How could Ye Lanchen do that? Why did he ask such a question?
Could it be him? He hadn't done it before?
