Chapter 1002 Testify
All of this was because she followed the queen's idea, so she chose to stand on the queen's side!
Since she stood up to testify against Concubine Jing, Xiang'er knew that she had no way out, no matter what happened, she would firmly hold on to the big tree of the queen.

The queen turned her head and glanced at Xiang'er. It was still useful for her to keep Xiang'er, so naturally she couldn't let the emperor just deal with it like this.

"Stop!" When the guards were about to take Xiang'er away, the queen said at the right time, "Your Majesty, don't worry, it's not too late to listen to Xiang'er's words."

The guard listened in embarrassment, looked at Emperor Chu, wondering whether he should obey the Queen's order or not.

Seeing the Queen's voice, Emperor Chu frowned, "Queen, this is obviously slander, why listen to it?"

"Your Majesty obstructs you so much, is it because you're afraid of hearing something bad?" The Queen fixed her gaze on Emperor Chu, piercing her heart sharply.

"Queen!" Chu Huang's voice became higher and higher, "You are too presumptuous!"

"Emperor, you are the one who is presumptuous!" The Empress Dowager stood up to protect her side with deep eyebrows, "A concubine Jing will make you lose your reason and judgment, just look in the mirror, you don't even have an emperor right now!" Weiyi, open your mouth and shut your mouth, do you still have this country in your heart?"

"Queen, did the queen tell you something?"

The Emperor Chu hadn't heard the empress dowager's reprimand for many years, but what he heard today was almost as much as he had heard for several years!
In the past, although the Queen Mother would disapprove of some of his opinions, she would not criticize him in front of everyone like today, and would not save him any face.

Besides the queen, who else can talk to the queen mother?
I don't know what kind of medicine the Queen gave the Queen Mother to make the Queen Mother think of her so much!If he didn't know that he was the queen mother's biological son, he would have thought that the queen was her daughter!She was more concerned about him than she was about him!

"The queen didn't say anything to me! Emperor, you have to rely on your conscience. After all these years, don't you really understand what kind of person the queen is?" Looking at the suspicious expression of the emperor, the queen mother sighed inwardly. Knowing that she would have prevented Concubine Jing from entering the palace no matter what, so this would not happen now.

It's okay to be a pet, but also to be affectionate!
Just like his useless father!All waste on women!

"Nurse Dong, please go into the hall to rest after helping your mother." Seeing that the queen mother was slightly out of breath, the queen hurriedly ordered the empress dowager at the side.

Emperor Chu hesitated for a moment, and led Concubine Jing to follow him.

He knew that the queen mother was not in good health, and he was indeed too radical just now. If something happened to the queen mother, he would not be able to forgive himself.

All the palace attendants also followed suit.

Mammy Dong supported the Queen Mother to sit on the main seat. The Empress ordered Mammy Cao to bring red dates and goji berry tea. , looks very festive.

The Empress Dowager picked up the lid of the cup and fiddled with it once and for all, then cast a glance at Emperor Chu: "The Empress still loves Aijia..."

The queen only pursed her lips and smiled, not saying much.

Chu Huang looked very ashamed in his heart.

In the past few years, he patronized Concubine Jing, but he had forgotten the Queen Mother's preferences. He thought that when he failed to fulfill his filial piety, the Queen was always by her side. No wonder the Queen Mother favored him so much. It was because his son did not do well.

Concubine Jing gritted her teeth as she saw the guilt gradually appearing on Emperor Chu's face. How could she allow the Queen to mess up the game of chess after she finally got to this point.

"Your Majesty, Xiang'er is still kneeling, I don't know how to punish her?" When she said "punishment", the tip of her tongue turned slightly, with a hint of melancholy.

No one spoke in the hall, and it was very quiet. When Concubine Jing spoke, even if the voice was small, others could naturally hear her.

Before Emperor Chu could speak, the Empress looked at Concubine Jing slowly, and said in a calm and steady voice, "Concubine Jing, is it really Xiang'er that you instigated?"

"Empress, the concubine really didn't do this... I don't know if Xiang'er was eager to protect the master or someone deliberately instigated such a misunderstanding..." Concubine Jing spoke weakly, like a frightened little rabbit, She blinked and looked at Emperor Chu, full of fear.

"Queen, that's enough! There is a limit to my patience with you. You slander Jing'er again and again. Do you really think I can't do anything about you?"

The Queen's eyes narrowed slightly: "Your Majesty, why should you be angry? The concubine is just confirming that since Your Majesty said it was a slander, if you want to clear Concubine Jing's grievances, then you must not just listen to one side, what does Your Majesty think?"

"What do you want to say?"

"The concubine has heard the testimony of Concubine Jing before, now let's listen to Xiang'er's testimony." The queen smiled slightly.

The Emperor Chu frowned slightly, feeling that the Empress was very annoyed: "I have already heard it before, why do you need to ask again?"

"Your Majesty, maybe there will be unexpected gains this time?"

"In that case, why don't the emperor sit down and listen?" The queen mother looked at the emperor calmly.

The Emperor Chu knew that the Queen Mother was angry, and he didn't dare to offend her any more, so he sat down.

The queen looked at Emperor Chu: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the smallpox more than ten years ago?"

Concubine Jing's heart skipped a beat, she kept swallowing her saliva, she turned her head to look at Emperor Chu, but saw him startled slightly.

"Naturally remember."

Because of smallpox, many princes died early, this is also a knot in his heart.

The queen pursed her lips: "Xiang'er, let's talk about this."

When Xiang'er heard this, she subconsciously looked at Concubine Jing, but she saw her looking directly at her with a ruthless gaze, as if she would be killed immediately if she dared to say one more word.

The queen stepped forward, impartially, just blocking Concubine Jing's view.

She looked at Xiang'er calmly: "Xiang'er?"

Xiang'er took a deep breath, she had offended Concubine Jing anyway, even if she didn't say anything, Concubine Jing would definitely not let her go once the matter was over.

Now that she has chosen to board the ship of the queen, she must not escape.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, there was actually another cause and effect for the smallpox incident back then." Xiang'er raised her eyes with firmness, "The reason why the servants came to the Empress Dowager's palace back then was also because of the arrangements made by the Concubine Jing for the servants. Task……"

Concubine Jing stared at the Queen's figure, almost seeing her right through!
Xiang'er, how dare she dare!How dare you betray her!

"What task?" The queen mother turned her head to glance at the agitated Emperor Chu, and asked indifferently.

"Concubine Jing asked the servants to drip the saliva of the prince who died of smallpox into the bowl that Prince Jing eats..." Xiang'er uttered these words with difficulty, and then lowered her head.

Everyone knows that all the belongings of these princes who died of smallpox will be burned, let alone this kind of stuff that comes out of their bodies.

Whoever touches it will die!

"Bold!" The queen mother slammed the table!
Xiang'er quickly knelt down and kowtowed vigorously: "The queen mother forgives the sin, this servant knows it is wrong!"

"It's ridiculous!" Chu Huang couldn't believe it even more, he stood up and pointed at Xiang'er angrily, "Bold servant girl, talking nonsense! Who ordered you to talk to Jing'er?"

Concubine Jing looked at Emperor Chu's protection, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up.

She knew that no matter what she did, he would trust her without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, don't get excited, it's just nonsense, and let her finish." The queen's lips pursed slightly.

"Queen! Since you want to hear it, then you can stay here and listen!" Emperor Chu felt that he couldn't see through the queen, he didn't understand, this Xiang'er was clearly slandering Concubine Jing, why the queen continued to listen.

After saying that, the Emperor Chu wanted to take leave of the Queen Mother.

"Come back!" The Empress Dowager raised her brows, her tone was not high, but she managed to make the Emperor Chu stop.

Concubine Jing was about to leave, but she was stopped by the queen mother, and she hated it secretly.

"The empress is right, since you already think it's nonsense, why get angry?"

Emperor Chu's eyebrows were twisted into the word "Chuan", and he was very puzzled: "Mother, why are you messing around with the queen?"

"Is it nonsense, don't you know after reading it?" The queen mother said in a flat tone.

Emperor Chu had no choice but to sit down.

Da Chu is famous for his filial piety, and the status of women is obviously higher than that of other countries. If he, the emperor, can ignore his own mother's words and make her angry, he will be the emperor. I don't know what the history books say.

"Continue." The Queen said to Xiang'er.

Seeing that she was not dragged down by the imperial army, Xiang'er was slightly relieved.

"The servant girl wanted to enter Fengyi Palace, but found that she couldn't get in at all. In the end, the servant girl found Qiu Yi out, so she planned to kill her, and peeled her face to make a human skin mask."

Speaking of this, Xiang'er tore off the autumn-like human skin on her face, and the Queen Mother's eyebrows jumped when she saw it, and she kept chanting Buddha's name in her mouth.

These years, the queen mother has been eating fast and reciting Buddha's name, she has rarely seen such bloody blood, and felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

The Emperor Chu turned pale with fright, feeling inexplicably terrified.

"Mother, this is planting!"

"Listen carefully."

The Empress Dowager's eyes fell on Concubine Jing who was beside Emperor Chu, and she squinted her eyes slightly. She didn't know that Concubine Jing looked gentle and harmless, but she was a person with vicious thoughts.

Chu Huang had no choice but to shut up, feeling aggrieved in his heart, a pair of cool little hands stuck to the back of his hands, Chu Huang raised his eyes, Concubine Jing smiled softly at him, looking at this smile, Chu Huang felt more and more that Xiang'er was making up nonsense. Made indiscriminately.

"After the slave girl entered Fengyi Palace as Qiuyi, she found that the empress was very caring and strict in taking care of His Royal Highness Prince Jing, especially eating and eating things that were out of sight. The maids here are all brought by the empress’s natal family, and the servants tried their best to find a suitable opportunity to plant smallpox, so they had to go back and report to Concubine Jing.”

Qiu Chan, who was waiting beside Cao Mama, remembered the tragic death of Nanny and Qiu Yi, staring at Xiang'er almost cannibalized her!

If Grandma Cao hadn't been holding onto her hand, she would have rushed up to slap Xiang'er a few times.

She regards Qiu Yi as her younger sister and takes care of her a lot, but who knows, the real Qiu Yi has long been killed by someone pretending to be her!Thinking of this, she hated herself for not seeing this man earlier!So much so that she has been taking good care of her enemy, how can she be worthy of the dead autumn!
Sensing Qiu Chan's gaze, Xiang'er's body trembled slightly, and her head lowered even lower.

"My servant thought that this mission was a failure. Unexpectedly, the concubine Jing gave this servant a bottle of poison called Baixisan, saying that the poison is colorless, tasteless and insensible. It will make people die in a dream, and let this servant take it easy. Dosage, only a little at a time, so as not to be discovered."

When Concubine Jing heard this, a trace of coldness flashed across her face.

She had a smile on her face, but her hands clenched the inside of her sleeves, wishing she could go up and tear Xiang'er's mouth open, so that she would know what to say and what not to say.

But...she couldn't do this, since she had reached this point, she had to guard the image in Emperor Chu's heart, which was what she should hold on to the most.

After all, it was too naive to want to pull her off the horse with just one Xiang'er.

Besides, the smallpox incident happened more than ten years ago, and the evidence has long been gone. As long as she refuses to admit it, the queen will have nothing to do with her.

After thinking it over, the smile in Concubine Jing's eyes deepened.

So what if the queen knows the truth?If there is no evidence to speak, it will only be regarded as slander by the Chu emperor.
