”So you're saying, the reason why the empress suddenly fell ill wasn't because of the Princess An's forehead?” The Emperor asked coldly.

Zhang Zhu Liang was still very flustered. His eyes looked left and right, looking at the Imperial Consort's gaze. He wanted to wink at her, but was stopped by the mama beside him.

When she turned around, she realized that the Emperor had been staring at her the whole time.

Imperial Concubine's heart tightened as she hurriedly lowered her head.

Zhang Zhu Liang was one of Emperor's few youths, and because of Zhang Zhu Liang's birth, Emperor was quite satisfied. Thus, although he was not a high official in the imperial court, he was a popular figure in front of Emperor.

Because of his timid nature, he was not suppressed by anything in the Ministry of Rites.

But now, the imperial concubine gave Zhang Zhu Liang a meaningful glance in front of the Emperor and was truly courting death.

Baili Jinxiu's lips curved into a cold smile. Imperial Consort really couldn't hold back anymore. It seemed like the empress dowager had always been the one supporting his in the palace.

If not, why would the Imperial Concubine be so vicious and so sinister?

The imperial concubine would always be at a disadvantage when it came to herself, but if it was against other noble young ladies, it would be like fish on a plank, waiting to be slaughtered by the imperial concubine.

However, although the Imperial Concubine's methods were ruthless, it was still not enough to keep the Queen's identity a secret.

”Zhang Zhu Liang, take back that emotionless appearance of yours and reply.” Emperor retracted his gaze from the imperial concubine and coldly said to Zhang Zhu Liang.

”Emperor, this is indeed the case. Even though the empress's phoenix body is ominous, it's not because of the word 'Princess An'. ”

Assistant Minister Baili became anxious when he heard that and quickly shouted, ”Emperor, the empress fell ill after esteemed wangfei toasted her tea. Isn't that the most obvious sign?

It was just a small diarrhea. How could it make the empress vomit blood? It must be because Princess An's fate is unknown and her birth was not good, that she was coerced by the Empress. ”

He was already detested by the Emperor, if he did not help the imperial concubine settle the matter properly and did not kill Baili Jinxiu, he would not be able to turn the situation around.

Thinking about it, a sinister look flashed across Assistant Minister Baili's face as he looked at Baili Jinxiu.

This damnable girl caused his Prime Minister Baili Palace to fall so far, to the point where even his own child was hurt so pitifully by Baili Jinxiu.

Assistant Minister Baili formed a fist with his hand, wishing that he could go up and beat Baili Jinxiu to death to vent his anger.

”Emperor, the empress's illness is acting so quickly. ”This chenqie dares to say that she'd rather believe it than not, so she shouldn't delay the empress's well-being.”

Emperor's gaze swept across the faces of the people in the hall. His worries for the Queen's safety had been stirred up completely.

”Xiao Xuan, what do you think we should do?” The Emperor's lips curled up into a sneer as he asked Gong Xiaoxuan, who was the most proud of himself.

Baili Jinxiu was slightly surprised, because from the very beginning, this matter had revolved around him.

Now, Emperor suddenly asked Gong Xiaoxuan, was he planning to get Gong Xiaoxuan to say something?

Only, Gong Xiaoxuan seemed to have known that this matter would involve him.

He still had a cold and indifferent expression. After hearing Emperor's question, he said without blinking, ”Regarding this matter, this prince believes in the wangfei.”
