Chapter 32 Was it Concubine Qi’s doing?
As soon as Concubine Xi said these words,
Everyone in the hall suddenly looked up at Zhiyu,

Zhiyu's originally raised smile suddenly paused, "What do you mean by Concubine Xi's words?"

Concubine Xi smiled calmly,
"Don't worry, Sister Guo. I just remembered that I was fooled by my subordinates when I was young, and I just expressed my feelings."

"What Concubine Xi said is not impossible."

Concubine Qi seemed to have caught some light and jumped out again,
"Please also ask the emperor to observe clearly."

Zhiyu smiled sarcastically, "There's no need to accuse me of anything. Furong just pointed it out and asked me to take out the unopened brocade to prove my innocence."

"Concubine Xi said this again. After I open it and check it, will there be any other names?"

In the eyes of everyone, these words
Zhiyu just feels guilty.
Now it's just a matter of delaying time.

He deliberately showed his grievance to the emperor, hoping to make the emperor feel pity and expose the matter.

So they spoke one after another, trying to block Zhiyu's mouth from all angles.

"Guo Guiren's words are wrong. The sisters just don't think you are such a ruthless person."

Ulanara glanced at everyone and pretended to be impartial and advised:

"That's why I want to investigate this matter clearly and completely clear your name, so that I won't have to talk about this kind of thing in the future, and it will also give the Sixth Palace peace of mind."

Yinzhen also looked over,
Zhiyu met his gaze, deliberately smiled miserably, and looked away.

"In that case, let's test it."

After saying that, he wiped the corners of his eyes with the handkerchief.
Yinzhen saw this and rubbed the ring on his thumb twice.

Finally, he waved his hand and signaled to Su Peisheng,
Su Peisheng bowed and called the tools he had prepared.
I took apart the two pieces of brocade and compared them with the new pieces of cloth taken out from the Ministry of Internal Affairs with a ruler.
The cloth in the palace has always had a fixed length.

Approximately 13 meters in length and 1.4 meters in width,
To ensure rigor, Su Peisheng not only used a ruler to measure,

I also used the newly brought cloth from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to compare with Zhiyu’s two pieces of brocade.
After repeated inspection in public twice,

Su Peisheng put away his things and replied respectfully:

"Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, these two pieces of brocade in Guo Guiren's palace are in accordance with the rules of the palace."

"It is the same length and width as the new cloth brought by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It has indeed never been opened and used."

Concubine Xi realized something was wrong when she gave in to the inspection.

Now that he knew the result, his pupils shrank even more, and he couldn't help but turn around and glare at Lu Zhu.
Zhiyu looked at it silently,

Then he covered his face with a handkerchief and suddenly sobbed,
"This……"

Ulanara was a little embarrassed.
Looking at Zhiyu, I didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.
Yinzhen's expression also turned down.

The concubines noticed and stopped talking.
Only Concubine Qi,

It seems that he has already determined that this matter was done by Zhiyu.
Now that Zhiyu has been cleared of suspicion, he is in disbelief.

He kept talking without hesitation and continued to accuse Zhiyu.
"It's impossible. Maybe Guo Guiren bribed the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there's something wrong with the cloth and ruler he sent, or maybe he's already prepared new brocade, just wait..."

"enough!"

Yinzhen stared at Concubine Qi coldly and scolded fiercely,
"What are your intentions in targeting Guo Guiren again and again?"

"Concubine, concubine..."

Concubine Qi was immediately startled and did not dare to say anything.

When Concubine Nian saw this, she secretly laughed in her heart.
"Concubine Qi is so anxious to blame Guo Guiren for this matter. Could it be that she has a guilty conscience?"

Concubine Qi immediately stood up and said angrily:

"What did you say? I don't know anything about this, so why do I feel guilty?" Concubine Nian didn't take it seriously. She smiled at Concubine Qi and said slowly:

"Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered that one year, as a reward from the palace, Concubine Qi received a piece of brocade!"

Zhiyu raised his eyes and narrowed his eyes.

Now that you know, why didn't you tell me earlier?

Concubine Nian: "Just now I was only watching Eunuch Su for inspection. I suddenly remembered it when I saw Concubine Qi."

Ulanara was too lazy to fight with them anymore and looked directly at Concubine Qi.
"Concubine Qi, do you really mean what Concubine Nian said?"

"Concubine, I can't remember clearly." Concubine Qi naturally would not admit it.
"Su Peisheng!" Yinzhen shouted directly without looking at her,
Su Peisheng immediately stepped forward and bowed, waiting for instructions.

"Go search!"

Su Peisheng responded and turned around to go to Changchun Palace.

Su Peisheng moved quickly,

When he came back, he not only brought the brocade, but also Fenxiang, the maid in charge of the warehouse of Changchun Palace.
"Back to the Emperor, Your Majesty, and my mistresses, there is indeed a piece of leftover plain brocade in the Changchun Palace."

With that said, Su Peisheng presented the tray in his hand,
While everyone was checking, Su Peisheng continued:

"When my servant went to search the Changchun Palace warehouse, he noticed that the palace maid Fenxiang who was guarding the warehouse looked flustered and extremely frightened."

"The servant realized something was wrong, so he took him over together."

As he said that, Su Peisheng stared at Fenxiang, who was being held by two young eunuchs behind him.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, why don't you tell the truth now?"

At this point, everyone was convinced that Concubine Qi had done this.
This fennel is the insider,
So they all looked at Fennel,

Under the pressure of everyone's eyes, Fenxiang shook her head and opened her mouth.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Qi has known for a long time that Yi promised to be pregnant...ah!"

Before Fenxiang finished speaking, Concubine Qi couldn't help but jump out and hit her,
"You cheap servant, how dare you bite your master indiscriminately?"

"Stop Concubine Qi!" Ulanara immediately ordered.

Two powerful nuns stepped forward quickly and grabbed Concubine Qi.
Concubine Qi couldn't move and kept shouting,

"Who are you, a bitchy slave girl? Who ordered you to bite me?"

"Your Majesty, the Queen, I really don't know this! That brocade, the brocade was used a long time ago."

Concubine Qi herself couldn't remember when this brocade was used.
Even if Nian didn't mention it, she didn't know there was such a piece of brocade in her warehouse.

Yinzhen was upset by the noise and immediately threw the teacup down, "Shut up!"

The tea cup was broken in front of Concubine Qi, and the tea in the cup splashed all over.
Concubine Qi was startled and did not dare to shout anymore. Tears flowed from her eyes and her body gradually softened.

"Then palace maid, please continue talking." Ulanara raised her eyes and signaled,

"Yes, our empress was very angry when she found out that Yi promised to be pregnant. It happened to be that the empress asked her to prepare for a palace banquet,"

"So I planned to secretly add a lot of cold food to the meal Yi promised,"

"But Mu Xiang reminds Yi Yao that she knows she is pregnant and is cautious by nature, so she should not eat anything from the palace banquet,"

"Just in case, I bribed Tong Yi to promise to the palace maid next to me, and bought the sachet she always wears with her."

As he spoke, Fenxiang raised his head and glanced at Zhiyu, then buried his head and continued:
"I also remembered that Guo Guiren also had two pieces of brocade, so I thought of framing it for Guo Guiren..."

Everyone showed an expression that was indeed the case for a moment, and looked at Concubine Qi with a hint of fear in their eyes.
Concubine Qi is really good at planning.
Not only did it count, Yi promised not to eat the food at the palace banquet,

She also thought about asking Mrs. Guo to take the blame for her.
If Mrs. Guo hadn't used the brocade yet, Concubine Qi's plan would have come true!
