Sun Xuemei kowtowed to Concubine Sun, and said with a pale face: "Concubine, please be careful. I have never thought of harming Miss Shen, so how could I come up with such a bad idea?"

When she said this, Zhaohua became even more angry. He stepped forward and slapped Sun Xuemei, "You're talking nonsense. It's obviously you. If you hadn't instigated me, I wouldn't have done such a thing!"

Seeing the two of them arguing, their faces turned red.

At this moment, an announcement came from outside the door, and then the emperor hurried over.

The emperor looked majestic, frowned at a few people, and said in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

When Zhaohua saw the emperor, the grievance on his face became even worse, and he complained with choked sobs: "Father, this bitch saw that the relationship between the emperor and Shen Chenbi was good, so he became jealous, secretly instigated the relationship between the emperor and Shen Chenbi, and returned the favor to the emperor. I poisoned Shen Chenbi because of the danger, but now she refuses to admit it and wants my son to take the blame for her! Father, you must help my son to seek justice!"

In just a few words, she pushed the blame onto Sun Xuemei. Sun Xuemei shrank slightly and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. She opened her pale lips, trying to defend herself.

But she never thought that the emperor did not give her a chance to speak. He looked directly at Concubine Sun and said without saying anything: "Zhaohua has a pure nature, but her ears are a little soft. I think the blame for this is also on this cheap maid. I don't want to." She wants to serve the master well, but she has evil thoughts all day long! Concubine Sun, please don’t be soft-hearted!"

Obviously, the emperor also turned a blind eye and planned to let Sun Xuemei take the blame for this crime.

Hearing what he said, Zhaohua was relieved and glanced at Sun Xuemei proudly, as if he was mocking Sun Xuemei for overestimating his abilities.

Seeing that the emperor was so partial to Zhaohua, Shen Chenbi was unhappy and sarcastically said, "I'm afraid the emperor's move is unfair. It's certainly wrong for Sun Xuemei to instigate it, but it was the princess who really did it. If the princess has no intention of harming the subject in her heart, How could you easily listen to other people’s slanderous ideas?”

"Logically speaking, the princess's fault is greater than that of Sun Xuemei. Is the emperor trying to protect the princess?"

"Shen Chenbi, what do you mean?" After hearing this, Zhaohua was unhappy and shouted at Shen Chenbi.

Shen Chenbi curled his lips slightly, smiling softly.

"It means that the princess deserves to be punished. Otherwise, if she behaves like a princess in the future and the master does something wrong, he will shift all the blame to the slave. Wouldn't the laws of Daxia be chaotic? How can the emperor convince the public in the future?"

The emperor's face turned a bit livid, and his eyes looking at Shen Chenbi became dark.

Before the emperor could say anything, Concubine Sun also joined in, "Yes! Your Majesty, if you don't deal with the princess, if this matter gets out in the future, I'm afraid it will arouse criticism."

Seeing that he could no longer protect Zhaohua, the emperor glanced at Zhaohua with hatred, and said: "In this case, I don't have much to say! Zhaohua was not strict, so I punished her to spend half a month in isolation. , this cheap maid has evil thoughts, so she should be thrown into prison!"

Although Shen Chenbi was still not satisfied with this punishment, it was already the emperor's biggest concession, and Shen Chenbi had no choice but to accept it.

Then, Concubine Sun took Shen Chenbi's hand and said to the emperor with a distressed look on her face: "Now the King of Chu is going out to conquer the barbarians for the emperor. As the future Concubine of Chu, Miss Shen must not make any mistakes at this time. Now Concubine Chen is worried because something like this has happened, so why not let Miss Shen live with me! Concubine Chen can feel at ease!"

Concubine Sun had said so. Even if the emperor was unwilling in his heart, he had no choice but to agree. After all, it was indeed Zhaohua's fault in this matter. They did not pester them endlessly. They had already given him face. He could not stop Shen Chenbi from doing anything. put.

"Just as the noble concubine said!" The emperor said lightly, then turned and left.

Although Zhaohua was not punished severely, he was able to escape from the princess, which was a blessing in disguise.The two guards came up and wanted to drag Sun Xuemei down. Sun Xuemei looked pale and kept begging for mercy and crying, "Your Majesty, this slave is innocent. Your Majesty, this slave is really wronged!"

But even if what she said was true, the emperor did not hesitate for a moment.

Concubine Sun and Shen Chenbi also left together, and no one could help her anymore.

Sun Xuemei's face was ashen, and she had no choice but to be dragged away by the guards.

The two guards escorted her to the Shenxing Department. The torture instruments inside made her immediately frightened. "You can't do this to me. I am the most beloved concubine of King Chu. If you touch me, you will wait until King Chu returns home in triumph." I will definitely not spare you when I come back!"

Hearing what she said, the two guards looked at each other and laughed loudly: "Are you afraid that we are fools? We have only heard that King Chu doted on his fiancée, but we have never heard of any concubines. Besides, With your appearance, can King Chu like you? Stop dreaming!"

What the two said immediately touched Sun Xuemei's mind. She bit her lower lip tightly, filled with shame and anger.

Then, no matter what Sun Xuemei said, the two of them just pretended not to hear and greeted her properly.

After several twists and turns, Sun Xuemei was covered with scars and had no strength left, lying in the prison like a dead dog.

At this time, she also felt the pain Shen Chenbi had suffered before.

Suddenly she thought of what Shen Chenbi said in the cell before, and felt a little regretful.

Not long after, Aunt Liu who was next to Zhaohua came to visit Sun Xuemei in the prison.

Aunt Liu came here on Zhaohua's order to see Sun Xuemei's miserable condition. Those two guards were also specially ordered by Zhaohua, otherwise Sun Xuemei would not be in this state.

Seeing Sun Xuemei who was like a puddle of mud, Grandma Liu was about to go back to recover, but was stopped by Sun Xuemei.

Aunt Liu glanced at her and asked angrily: "What? Is it too late to beg for mercy now?"

"Mommy, I know you are kind-hearted. Please help me! Let me see Miss Shen!" Sun Xuemei took off a jade bracelet from her wrist with a flattering look on her face. This was the jade bracelet she had been using for several months. I bought it for 200 taels of Yueyin.

Looking at the fineness of this jade bracelet, grandma knew that it was worth a lot. She put the jade bracelet away calmly and said lightly: "I can bring it to you for you. As for whether Miss Shen is willing to see you, then I can’t control it anymore!”

"Thank you, mama!" Sun Xuemei smiled weakly.

Fortunately, Grandma Liu kept her promise and actually delivered the message.

Shen Chenbi wiped the tea with a tea lid and sneered, "You didn't show any mercy when you poisoned me, but now you think of me."

"Miss, in my opinion, she has brought this fate upon herself. Miss, please don't be soft-hearted!" Biyun was afraid that Shen Chenbi would save a white-eyed wolf, so she quickly spoke out to dissuade her.
