Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 186 The Truth Comes Out
Shang Kelan's eyes were sharp, and she could tell something was wrong from the change of Taoxiang's expression.

So, she hurriedly pulled Li Chenxiu over and avoided Li Chenxiu to the side, and some of the powder was spilled on the ground.

Fortunately, Li Chenxiu's hands were steady, he only lost a little powder, and he still had a lot in his hand.

Seeing that the medicine powder was fine, Shang Kelan breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at Li Chenxiu and asked, "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"

Li Chenxiu's ears were reddish, and he was still not used to being so cared by Shang Kelan, but he felt a little warm in his heart.

This point, even he himself did not notice.

On the side, seeing this scene, Jin Yantang was slightly jealous.

I saw him frowning slightly, stepped forward to block between the two, separated them, and said impatiently to the servants around him: "Don't you pull this palace maid away?"

"Yes!"

Immediately, he gave an order, and several people gathered around to restrain Tao Xiang.

"Let go of me! Let go of me!"

Even though Taoxiang struggled desperately, it was useless, these three people held her down, she was a weak woman, she couldn't move at all.

Shang Kelan turned his attention away from Li Chenxiu, glanced at Jin Yantang from the corner of his eye, but couldn't help feeling a little warm in his heart.

He is still so sensitive, although sometimes he won't say it, but his body will subconsciously betray him.

It seems that Jin Yantang will become a little impulsive when it comes to matters related to himself, and it is easier to express his emotions.

Only people who really care about themselves will do this, right?
However, before Shang Kelan could ask Tao Xiang any questions, and Jin Yantang hadn't spoken yet, Nanny Chen, who was imprisoned next to the queen mother, knelt down with a "plop" and said with a panicked look: "Please, Your Majesty, please spare me! Please, Your Majesty Forgive me! Tao Xiang didn't deliberately offend Concubine Chen!"

As she spoke, she hastily kowtowed to Jin Yantang.

Immediately afterwards, as if she had remembered something, she turned to the Queen Mother and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong, but Tao Xiang has nothing to do with this matter, she is just someone who was implicated innocently." Ah! please spare her life!"

When she was about to die, Nanny Chen still had time to intercede for an irrelevant palace maid!
The Empress Dowager was already angry, but she was even more angry when Nanny Chen said this. Her originally ugly face turned red at this moment!

I saw Nanny Chen kneeling at the empress dowager's feet, begging for mercy tremblingly, the empress dowager looked at her with hatred, but picked her up from the ground.

She grabbed Nanny Chen by the collar, and asked sadly: "You joined forces with outsiders to harm Ai's family, what exactly are you planning? Ai's family has let you serve by your side for so many years, but in what way have you lived better than ordinary people's families?" Is the wife of the rich family poor?"

The queen mother's two questionings were to understand her friendship over the years, and also to make herself understand.

Just being victimized by Nanny Chen for no apparent reason like this, she will not let it go!

Chen Momo burst into tears, shook her head in pain, and said, "Queen Mother, don't ask me any more!"

She didn't seem to want to say why she helped outsiders murder the queen mother.

But the topic changed, and she begged the Queen Mother with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, for the sake of our master and servant, if your servant dies, please spare Tao Xiang's life. The medicine was originally Tao Xiang to treat me. I use my throat, but I don’t want to live in the world anymore, so I secretly replaced it with poison..."

Shang Kelan listened to Nanny Chen's words, but only thought it was funny.

Before Mammy Chen continued to edit, she came to the queen mother and helped her to take two steps back.

After keeping a distance from Nanny Chen, Shang Kelan said with a smile that was not a smile: "If you let Taoxiang poison you to death without knowing it, Taoxiang will still be found out, and death is still inevitable, Nanny Chen Mo, why are you protecting Tao Xiang so much? Who is Tao Xiang?"

As she said that, without waiting for Nanny Chen to explain, almost without giving her a chance to catch her breath, Shang Kelan's voice suddenly became sharper, and she looked straight at her with an extremely serious expression: "But Taoxiang is the person next to the queen. If you say you have nothing to do with Tao Xiang, then you must have something to do with the queen?"

"Besides, you gave the empress dowager the fat cream itself. Judging from various evidences, you knew that the fat cream was poisonous, but you claimed that it was given by the empress. The empress logically found out the empress dowager according to various obvious clues. On the palace!"

After a few words, the ins and outs of the matter were clarified.

Shang Kelan has always been lenient and kind to others, but she has never turned her face when she said it, and she was serious when she said it was serious. At this moment, she is more awe-inspiring than ever!

For a moment, Nanny Chen's voice choked up, she looked at Shang Kelan dumbly, but had nothing to say.

But Shang Kelan gave everyone enough time to digest these contents, and she continued to say with an unchanged expression: "However, the Liumei who made this cream has never appeared, and her identity is also suspicious. What's even more strange is that How could there be a Tatar maidservant in the palace, but the palace itself didn't know about it?"

"But judging from the Queen's performance, she seems to know everything... Or rather, she has already controlled the development of the matter!"

If this continues, the focus of the investigation will only fall on the queen!

And if Jin Yantang hadn't been the one who had the patience to find evidence to prove the queen was guilty, the queen would have been convicted by now.

When Shang Kelan said these words, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a dangerous breath flashed in his eyes.

It was precisely because of the variable Tao Xiang that the stalemate turned around.

Just give her another half an hour, and she will be able to figure out all the ins and outs of this matter!

"Ha ha."

When the atmosphere was very serious and Nanny Chen couldn't say a word under Shang Kelan's persecution, the queen gave a low laugh.

She stood up slowly from the ground, patted the dust on her body in a leisurely manner, then looked at Shang Kelan lightly and said, "Concubine Chen, why do you conclude that this matter was done by me?"

The sentence "everything is controlled by the empress" just now made the empress's heart twitch violently.

She knew that at this point, there was no room for sophistry anymore. She had counted the right time and place, but she hadn't counted the harmony of people.

Now, it's just a matter of controlling the situation as much as possible.

But Shang Kelan glanced at her, but a sneer flashed across her beautiful peach blossom eyes.

When something happened, you just wanted to make peace with it?

Use the Tartars to kill her, queen, do you know how furious she was?
But she endured it just to wait for this moment.

Therefore, Shang Kelan ignored the queen, but continued to press Chen Nanny, "Chen Nanny, tell the truth at this time, I can spare Tao Xiang's life."

The Queen Mother frowned upon hearing this, but looked at Nanny Chen in confusion.

Chen Momo's eyes lit up, she quickly raised her head and asked, "Concubine Chen, is what you said true?"

Shang Kelan said solemnly: "I never lie to anyone."

Nanny Chen breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Okay... let me tell you!"
