One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Baili Qingfeng sat on the tall throne and did not say a word. However, the aura that surrounded him became even more berserk, causing no one to dare to look directly at him.

Zhao Hui Ying's heart tensed up. Looking at the concubines crying below, he coldly frowned and said: "Everyone be quiet! How noisy is the main hall? "

The wailing immediately stopped, and the imperial concubines began to sob softly as they pinched the handkerchief.

"This — the Imperial Palace is the center and home of the entire Great An Country. I didn't expect that the place where I live would have reached such a level!"

"Please calm your anger, your Imperial Majesty." Everyone hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

"The great Golden Hall is a place where we have to attend court every day. Every day, we have to accept the kowtows of the civil and military officials. Who would have thought that it would actually be here that we would be poisoned and become a place of harm! "What audacity! What audacity!"

As he spoke, he suddenly threw all the items on the imperial records onto the ground, "Investigate! "Search thoroughly. If we don't find out the truth this time, I, the emperor, will have acted too dishonorably!"

Zhao Hui Ying's heart trembled. His gaze fell upon Shen Ninghua's body. His sharp gaze was like a bone scraping steel knife as it ruthlessly swept past her, almost causing him to feel pain on his face.

This was no longer touching the emperor's reverse scale. This was simply pulling the emperor's reverse scale out of him!

She had been preparing for so long, and had thought that she would be absolutely safe. Who would have thought that Shen Ninghua would actually be able to escape so easily? She was already prepared.

Chen Chun could be said to be the emperor's most trusted subject. The moment he spoke, the emperor involuntarily believed more than half of it. In addition to Shen Ninghua and Chu Junyi's rebuttal, her scheme had been in vain.

Shen Ninghua's expression was calm, like a clear lake, without the slightest ripple.

The civil and military officials were completely silent, while they grumbled in their hearts. Originally, they had come here to seek an explanation, but now, they had actually become a punching bag. If this matter involved them, then it would truly be a loss.

"I'll leave this matter to Prince Consort Ye. Take out your sword. No matter who it is, no matter who it involves, go ahead and investigate. This Emperor will support you!"

Chu Junyi stepped forward, her voice firm and firm. "Your son shall obey."

Everyone felt apprehensive, quickly considering whether they had offended this nobleman of the imperial court, Prince Consort Ma.

"Father, since you have assigned this matter to this son, then this son must investigate everything clearly. However, if there is a need to prioritize matters, then naturally, Father's Palace's matters will be the most important. This son shall first ask Royal Father for an order. "

"Speak!" Baili Qingyuan nodded.

"Father, please allow this son of yours to investigate the harem."

Baili Qingfeng frowned, "You want to check the harem?"

Chu Junyi's voice was calm. "Yes, the imperial harem was clearly separated, but how could it not be affected? Furthermore, the spices that were sent to the harem were not in a group. If we don't investigate the harem, how can it be considered as having been discovered?"

Baili Qingqing frowned as he pondered. He narrowed his eyes slightly and his gaze became unsettled.

Shen Ninghua raised his eyes and said, "Imperial Father, since we are going to investigate, we should make it sooner rather than later. After all, if we are late, the evidence might be destroyed, and since Chu Junyi is a man, it's not appropriate for him to enter the harem. Your son understands medicine, so why don't we enter the harem instead?" Hmm... "Yes, let Chen Jun help you."

"Yes, your son shall obey."

Shen Ninghua got up and walked towards the imperial harem with Chen Jun and the other imperial physicians of the hospital.

Chu Junyi and her entourage began to investigate the Golden Hall as well, marking out all the poisoned areas. Afterwards, they began to interrogate the guards of the Golden Hall. The tense atmosphere slowly spread from the imperial palace to the capital.

The concubines were dismissed to their palaces, but when they returned, they did not dare to touch anything, for fear of being infected by some poison.

The first thing Shen Ninghua did was investigate the palace of the nobleman.

At this moment, she was in her early twenties. After returning to the palace, she sat on her bed with her blanket wrapped around her. She sneered as she watched Shen Ninghua lead her people to investigate.

"As a noble princess, you actually came to my little noble's palace to investigate. Don't you think that the taste is very good?"

Shen Ninghua held the spices in the incense burner and smelled them. Without even turning her head around, she slowly asked, "What's your esteemed self so nervous about?"

"What do you mean?"

"Ever since I walked into your palace, you've been keeping an eye on me as if you were afraid that I would find something out. Aren't you nervous?"

"Of course not, you are checking my things, and you still don't allow me to look?" "Many of these things were bestowed down by the emperor and esteemed empress. If they get damaged, you won't be able to afford it."

"Rest assured milord, my manor does not lack items that are bestowed by my royal father and mother the most."

"You …"

Shen Ninghua sized up a vase that was placed beside the bed. With a trace of interest in her eyes, she said, "This vase is rather elegant."

The nobleman froze. "It's just a vase. There are a lot of Internal Affairs divisions. Do you want to go to the Internal Affairs Division to find one?"

Shen Ninghua picked up the vase and lightly scratched it with her fingernail. Looking at the fine powder that fell from the vase, she coldly laughed, "What a good item."

"What good thing? It's just a vase! "

Shen Ninghua's lips curved upwards, "This is not an ordinary vase. With this vase, you can say that it's a success." "I believe that this vase must be the reason why your esteemed self was able to enjoy such glory in the past period of time."

Sweat trickled down the noble man's forehead. With a nervous face, he said, "I don't understand what you mean."

"Fake Pregnancy Grass..." Shen Ninghua raised her pitch-black eyes, her clear and limpid eyes shone upon the hearts of others as she asked, "Does your highness understand?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Looking at how flustered and exasperated the nobleman was, Shen Ninghua smiled slightly and said, "Is this nonsense? Isn't this nobleman's heart the clearest?"

The noble man's face was pale, he looked like he was about to fall. Fear could be seen in his eyes as he asked, "Princess, what are you going to do?" If this matter were to be exposed, then she would be completely finished.

Shen Ninghua did not answer her question. Instead, she turned around and continued inspecting the things in the room. After a while, she stopped and said, "Goodbye."

"Halt!" The nobleman abruptly stood up from the bed and walked quickly towards Shen Ninghua. With a sinister look in his eyes, he said, "Princess, you're going to expose me?"

"As an imperial concubine, she actually knows how to use poison techniques. This is extremely useful information, so naturally, I have to tell royal father about it."

"Although I am adept at using poison, I have never harmed anyone. Princess, why must you try to force me?"

Shen Ninghua sneered, "You didn't hurt anyone. So those concubines in the Golden Hall just now were reaping what they sowed?"

"Shen Ninghua, are you really going to expose me?"

Shen Ninghua smiled faintly and continued to walk around her towards the exit of the hall.

Shen Ninghua turned around abruptly and grabbed the wrist of an nobleman with a hand. Looking at the blackened hairpin, he scoffed, "I originally thought you had insufficient evidence, but with this, I can convict you! "Someone come, take a good look at this noble. Don't let her walk around casually or hurt yourself. The emperor will still have to see her again later."

The nobleman felt a sharp pain on his wrist. His fingers loosened and he saw that the hairpin had already been caught by Shen Ninghua. He wanted to say something more, but Shen Ninghua had already walked out of the palace, and the palace door was tightly shut.

After handing the hairpin to Chen Jun, Shen Ninghua said, "Principal Chen, I'm guessing that you've already seen through a lot of things, haven't you?"

Chen Xi nodded and looked at the hairpin with a deep look in his eyes. "Yes."

The two of them returned to the main hall. The officials in the main hall hadn't left yet and were still kneeling on the ground. Some of them had already paled to the point that they almost couldn't kneel.

Baili Qingfeng opened his mouth, "Ninghua, you've inspected it. Did you manage to see anything?"

Shen Ninghua bowed, "Reporting to Imperial Father, this son has found some things, but …"

"But what?"

"However, the result is a bit too scary. I'm afraid that I've made a wrong diagnosis."

With a deep look in his eyes, Baili Qingcang turned to look at Chen Jun, "Chen Jun, you speak."

"Reporting to your majesty, after some investigation, this humble subject has discovered that most of the censers in the palace of the Queen's palace have problems. Only a few concubines of low status who do not have any saint pets have survived. The spices sent by the princess into the palace have become poisonous because they were dipped in the censer."

"What did you say?" If there was a problem with the censer in the harem, didn't that mean that there was no clean place in the harem? Who could have such methods to control the entire harem?

Shen Ninghua added, "Imperial Father, not only is there a problem with the items within the palace, this son has also investigated an even more shocking matter."

"Even more shocking?"

"That's right, because the Indian noble had just miscarried, I checked more carefully. Only then did I discover that many things in her palace were poisoned, and one of them was the most special — fake pregnancy grass!"

Baili Qingfeng gritted his teeth, "Fake pregnancy grass?"

"Yes, if you consume this herb, you will be able to create a fake pulse of joy. Even your abdomen will swell as if you are pregnant, and your symptoms will only disappear after eight months. So, I'm afraid nobles have a small birth."

Baili Qingfeng's vision turned black as he felt a stifling sensation in his chest. He almost vomited out a mouthful of blood. He was so shocked that the Queen immediately stepped forward to help him catch his breath.

Baili Qingqing pushed the Queen away, and only after a while did he manage to suppress the surging blood in his chest, "Fake pregnancy grass, what a good fake pregnancy grass! Empress, you are in charge of my harem, is this the result of your rule? The harem is filled with poison, and it can even fake a pregnancy. What is this? "

Zhao Hui Ying kneeled on the ground, his expression as noble and cold as ever: "Chenqie did not manage the imperial harem well, please punish her."

Bai Li Qing Cang panted heavily as his vision turned black. Both of his hands were supporting himself on the imperial table and he did not fall down. He originally thought that this old man was actually one of the harem women's underhanded methods!

"Someone, bring that bitch from the Ying Family over here!"
