The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat stagnant.

The empress looked at Imperial Concubine Xin for a long time, but the doubts in his heart couldn't be dispelled.

Ever since Imperial Concubine Xin had entered the palace, their relationship had worsened day by day. The empress had subconsciously assumed that all the bad things that had happened to her were related to her.

Moreover, both of them held esteemed status. The empress suspected that Imperial Concubine Xin wanted to take her place, while Imperial Concubine Xin suspected that the empress wanted to eliminate him as soon as possible.

In short, once the two met, it was destined to be a calamity.

But now, the situation was slightly different.

Imperial Concubine Xin was a smart person after all. When he heard the empress's first words, he knew that there might be some misunderstanding.

Without bothering about the empress's dark face, she asked directly, "The Yun Family has been sued, but who did? The Queen suspects that this has something to do with chenqie? "

The empress's face turned cold as she scoffed. "Of course you would say it had nothing to do with you. Which thief would admit to stealing something from me?"

"But it really isn't my concubine's doing." Imperial Concubine Xin felt wronged, "In the eyes of the empress, is chenqie such a shameless person?"

"You know very well what sort of person you are."

Imperial Concubine Xin was irritated by these baseless accusations. He lost control of himself and said, "Then the empress will be able to support the heavens? "On New Year's Eve, snakes will be set free, and mice will be set free. Qing'er will be allowed to stay in the palace on the same day."

"She was so frightened that she cried out repeatedly and almost fainted. Chenqie still has lingering fear in her heart just thinking about it."

The empress frowned. "What do you mean by that? What does it have to do with you? Do you think I did it?"

Imperial Concubine Xin said with a straight face, "To trick you into saying that, which thief would admit to stealing something?"

The empress fumed, "I am a matriarch of the world, how can I be so lowly and despicable, letting snakes and rats go, doing all the work of an ant!"

Imperial Concubine Xin quietly sized up the empress. The empress was silent as well, her brows furrowed as she began to ponder.

After a while, the empress raised her head and asked a strange question. "I heard you were injured after you gave birth to Qing'er. Can you bear her in the future?"

Imperial Concubine Xin didn't expect her to ask such a question. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes, but he still nodded and said, "Xin Er and Qing Er are both good kids. It's enough for me to have them. If I don't, I won't have them."

The queen was silent again.

After a while, Madam Yun could no longer stay outside and hurried back with Princess Wenqing.

When she entered the hall, she felt that the atmosphere in the hall wasn't quite right. She didn't know what was going on, but her suspicious gaze had been lingering on Imperial Concubine Xin.

At this moment, the empress spoke up. "I'm tired. See the guests out."

Imperial Concubine Xin was also deep in thought. Upon hearing this, he pulled Wen Qing, who still wanted to run into the inner hall, and bowed as he bade farewell to his concubine.

They left in a hurry. When they left the Blue Phoenix Hall, Wen Qing tugged on mother imperial concubine's sleeves and pouted, "Qing'er still wants to accompany mother, and also wants to ask when mother can bring little brother to the palace.

"Can we wait for Qing'er for a moment?"

Imperial Concubine Xin shook his head, stroking his daughter's small head, "Imperial Mother has something to do. Qing'er, be good. mother imperial concubine will bring you here to see the Queen tomorrow."

She thought that one day should be enough time for the empress to think things through.

At this time, within Blue Phoenix Hall, the empress was still thinking.

After a while, she dismissed the palace maid and waited until only Madam Yun was left. The empress held onto Madam Yun's hand and said with a serious expression, "I seem to have made a mistake."

"What?" Mistress Yun did not understand.

The empress raised her head. "I don't think Imperial Concubine Xin poisoned me."

Mistress Yun was flabbergasted. "Ah? Are you sure? It's not funny. "

The empress was exhausted. "It really doesn't seem to be her. Her favour towards Qing'er cannot be faked. Besides, we had suspected earlier that the poisoner was colluding with the Imperial Advisor.

"For an evil object like the Pearl of the Person, Imperial Concubine Xin could only bear Qing Er at such a young age, so he shouldn't be able to bear another child. Would the Pearl of the Drake, then, be used by her?"

With the empress's words, Mistress Yun began to think of something, but she did not easily come to a conclusion. "This matter is of great importance. I will send someone to invite Doctor Liu to the palace. Is it true or not?"

"Yes, please take a look, Doctor Liu."

Doctor Liu's medical skills were superb. She would definitely be able to tell whether Imperial Concubine Xin had taken any of the Pearl of the Draconians and was not pregnant.

The empress nodded her head hesitantly, waiting for Madam Yun to send someone back before she asked, "Then if it really wasn't her, who could it be? I can only do this to those who do not oppose me

"Think of her."

"No matter who that person is, he shouldn't be harder to deal with than Imperial Concubine Xin. Imperial Concubine Xin, we can't easily touch him. Others, humph!"

The words were laced with a sharp killing intent that startled the empress. "Don't act recklessly."

Mistress Yun patted the empress's hand and said, "I know what I'm doing."

To a certain extent, Madam Yun was indeed both demonic and evil. Moreover, the Empress was her reverse scale, even if she were to die, the Queen would not be able to accept it either.

He didn't feel wronged at all.

However, it was not that easy for the Yun Family to invite Liu Wei into the palace.

Liu Wei was still in the capital city's government office, staring at the unlucky Sixth Prince without stopping.

The Sixth Prince was thoroughly convinced. He looked at the youth that was faintly smiling at him, and his teeth began to hurt. Was this person sick? He had sacrificed Ning Hui and lost a round.

Why was he so overbearing?

If he was forced into a dead end, wouldn't he be afraid of both sides suffering?

Liu Wei really wasn't afraid, she was already fighting with the Sixth Prince today.

The servant sent by the Yun clan to invite others chased them to the capital city's magistrate court. He happened to see his brother in the crowd, so the servant rushed to his brother's side and asked in a low voice, "How could you?

"Here?"

The brother held the melon seeds in his hand and said, "Madam knows that someone is reporting the incident to the Yun Family. Let me keep an eye on the entire family. If there is any news, inform her immediately. I am on a mission."

The attendant looked at the melon seeds in his brother's hand and was silent for a moment. Then, he asked, "Is there any news?"

The younger brother spat out the melon seeds in his mouth, "Not yet, the case is not settled yet, there's still no reply from the imperial court."

The servant asked what kind of report it was, and the younger brother explained it again. When he finished, he almost laughed out loud, "A whole million silver taels! Look at the Sixth Prince's expression, he seems to have eaten a lot!"

"It's like garlic is making me choke. I can't swallow it, and I can't puke it out. I'm really going to die from laughter. Doctor Liu is too talented." Then he asked: "What are you doing here?"

Brother gave half of the melon seeds in his hand to him, "Then you have to wait, it's better to have some fun and eat together. But you have to put the melon seeds inside this paper bag, you can't throw it away carelessly.

We all have the quality to eat melon seeds. "

The servant took a handful of the seeds indifferently and asked, "Where did you get this?"

The brothers smiled and said, "Someone is setting up a stall at the door. We have all kinds of tea and melon seeds, it only costs ten coins per bag. We are people of the capital, and we know how to do business."

"Your highness was humiliated, it's more interesting than watching a great performance on the stage."

The servant raised his head and quietly lit a wax stick for the Sixth Prince, who was completely unaware of what was going on. Then, he took a melon seed and put it in his mouth and said, "Then we'll watch it together."

It seemed that it was really quite interesting.
