Chapter 255 What Wrongful Deeds Have Been Done
The queen just felt a headache: "Alright, it's getting late, I need to rest."
Sanxi and Lanxi looked at each other and both left the queen's bedroom.
The moment the door closed.
Sanxi said bitterly: "Looking at Aunt Lan Xi who used to be so gentle and weak, I never thought she could be so mean and cheap. There is nothing that the Ministry of Punishment cannot pry open her mouth."
"What's wrong with you, eunuch? Could it be that you have done a lot of bad things in the past, and these words have touched your heart? I have never seen any servant in this palace who can withstand the 72 laws of the Ministry of Punishment."
"Aunt Lan Xi." Sanxi smiled in relief: "Don't forget, we are also slaves. Aren't you afraid that one day, the seventy-two laws of the Ministry of Punishment will be used on us?"
The expression on Lan Xi's face suddenly froze.
The next morning.
Emperor Yuanwu had just finished his morning court session.
The Queen was already waiting outside the door with Lan Xi and San Xi.
The moment he saw her, Emperor Yuanwu's eyebrows slightly knitted together: "Hasn't the Queen always been in poor health and needs to recuperate? Why did she come out today?"
Listening to Emperor Yuanwu's words.
The smile on the queen's face froze for a moment: "Your Majesty, I have something I want to report to you, but I don't know if I should say it or not."
"Since you have already come and have been waiting here for so long, how come you don't know whether to say anything when you see me? If the Queen thinks it is inappropriate, then it is better not to say anything." Emperor Yuanwu cleared his throat and walked towards the direction of Qiluan Garden.
The smile on the queen's face disappeared completely. She looked at the people around her awkwardly and hurriedly followed Emperor Yuanwu's steps.
"It's not a big deal, but I think it's necessary to report it to the emperor."
After the queen finished speaking, she raised her eyes and glanced at Emperor Yuanwu, and all she got in response was silence.
She gritted her teeth and continued, "Yesterday, someone reported that Xiao Shunzi, who was beside Concubine Shu, had pawned a box of gold, silver and jewelry at a pawn shop in the imperial city. Although Concubine Shu was favored, I was thinking that even if Concubine Shu was very generous, a eunuch in charge of the palace would not have so many good things..."
When Emperor Yuanwu heard this, his steps suddenly paused. He turned his head and stared at the empress for a few seconds, "This is true."
"I dare not speak nonsense. If Your Majesty does not believe it, you can send people to the mansion outside Xiao Shunzi's palace and search it, and you will know the truth." A sly smile appeared on the corner of the queen's lips.
When the emperor walked towards Qiluan Garden again, his steps were obviously much faster.
Just arrived at the gate of Qiluan Garden.
Then I saw Concubine Shu and Xiao Shunzi walking out of Qiluan Garden.
She seemed very surprised to see Emperor Yuanwu here. Her eyes were obviously startled and she covered her mouth with both hands: "Your Majesty."
Look at her panic.
The Queen sneered, "What is Concubine Shu going to do? Why is she so scared when she sees the Emperor? Could it be that she has done something wrong?"
As if she didn't hear what she was saying, Concubine Shu knelt down in front of Emperor Yuanwu and said, "Long live the emperor. I pay my respects to the emperor."
"Get up." Emperor Yuanwu waved his hand calmly, signaling her to return to the palace.
Concubine Shu nodded weakly and stood up with the help of Ying'er.
The queen felt as if someone was strangling her throat and she couldn't breathe when she saw him looking so weak all day long.
