Chapter 1046 Shen Zhinian's stupidity is triggered (90 reward points plus additional chapter)
Suddenly, Princess Yun'an narrowed her eyes and glanced at Shen Zhinian.
Could it be that Concubine Chen is holding a grudge against what happened at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet that night, so she deliberately set up a trap today to frame her and her third sister?
Princess Qingyang, on the other hand, was extremely flustered...
However, she understood that the more times like this, the more she could not show her weakness.
The mothers of Princess Qingyang and Princess Yun'an are still alive.
But Empress Dowager Liu was a Buddhist. When the emperor ascended the throne, she was honored as the empress dowager. She then sent all the surviving concubines to the royal temple to practice, and they were not allowed to return even during the holidays.
Princess Qingyang knew very well that the only person she could rely on in the capital was herself!
At this moment, she was just like Princess Yun'an, with a puzzled look on her face, and a hint of fear. She looked at Nangong Xuanyu and said respectfully, "I am also very confused about what your Royal Brother said. Please explain it to me."
Nangong Xuanyu looked at Shen Zhinian.
She is in charge of all matters in the harem.
Shen Zhinian got straight to the point: "At the palace banquet tonight, someone bribed the little palace maid to first put an aphrodisiac in Minister Gu's wine glass, and then deliberately poured the wine on his clothes to lure him out to change clothes, so that when the drug took effect..."
Shen Zhinian didn't need to finish the rest, everyone understood.
Gu Jinxiao sat on the chair, still looking indifferent. But when Shen Zhinian mentioned this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his cold face...
Princess Yun'an widened her eyes and suddenly looked at Gu Jinxiao: "What?!"
"Someone is so bold, Minister Gu, are you okay?!"
No wonder at the banquet tonight, she saw a palace maid kneeling and saying something to Minister Gu, and Minister Gu followed her and left.
I see……
Who exactly plotted against Minister Gu?
Let her know that she must tear that man to pieces!
Gu Jinxiao said distantly: "Thank you for Princess Yun'an's concern. I won't get in the way."
Princess Qingyang was also surprised: "How could someone bring such a filthy thing into the imperial palace?"
"Brother, Concubine Chen, you must investigate thoroughly!"
"It's just that I don't know... why did my brother and Concubine Chen ask my younger sister and third sister to come here?"
Princess Yun'an also suddenly reacted.
Then, her face turned red.
Could it be that this happened because the emperor knew that she and Qingyang both liked Minister Gu, and the emperor wanted to give one of them to Minister Gu to appease him?
Thinking of this, the anger on Princess Yun'an's face instantly disappeared, replaced by the attitude of a little girl.
Shen Zhinian looked at Princess Qingyang and said bluntly, "I also want to know how Princess Qingyang got the guts to bring such a filthy thing into the imperial palace?"
"How dare you plot against an important official of the imperial court at the first birthday party of my fourth prince!"
After these words were spoken, Princess Yun'an widened her eyes, her eyes full of surprise!
Princess Qingyang raised her head and looked at Shen Zhinian in disbelief.
For some reason, when she met Shen Zhinian's sharp gaze, Princess Qingyang suddenly felt a sense of fear in her heart, as if all her secrets had been seen through...
She clenched her fists and pinched her palms hard to calm herself down. Tears welled up in her eyes: "Noble Concubine Chen, as a woman, you should know that a woman's reputation is more important than anything else. How could you, how could you force such a crime on me?!"
At this point, Princess Qingyang knelt down towards Nangong Xuanyu and said, "Brother, I didn't do that! I have never done anything like this. Please help me!"
Gu Jinxiao just watched the scene indifferently without saying anything.
Princess Yun'an's eyes were filled with anger. She looked at Shen Zhinian and gritted her teeth and said, "Noble Concubine Chen, I was the one who offended you. Qingyang was not involved in anything and has a simple personality."
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. If you have any problem, come to me, don't involve others!"
Shen Zhinian frowned in disgust.
Princess Yun'an probably doesn't know that she is also a part of Princess Qingyang's plan, and she still protects her so much.
In the harem, no one's hands are completely clean. Sometimes, Shen Zhinian still appreciates women with strategies, but she really hates stupid people!
At this moment, Shen Zhinian's stupidity syndrome started to set in.
If she continued to argue with Princess Yun'an, who knows how long it would take. Shen Zhinian didn't have the time or the mood to explain to her, so she said directly to Xiao Zhouzi: "Bring the person here!"
"Yes!"
Princess Qingyang grew up in the palace, so of course she has some people in the harem.
It was a pity that she was only sixteen years old. She had been a daughter of a wealthy family since birth and had been spoiled all the way. How could she understand anything cunning and calculating, and her plans were full of loopholes.
Moreover, Shen Zhinian was in control of everything regarding the Fourth Prince's first birthday ceremony. Princess Qingyang's tricks naturally did not escape her eyes.
Princess Yun'an and Princess Qingyang grew up together. Although they are not born of the same mother, they have a very good relationship.
Seeing Princess Qingyang kneeling on the ground aggrieved and helpless, looking extremely pitiful, the anger in Princess Yun'an's eyes became more intense!
At this moment, she no longer cared about how much her royal brother doted on Concubine Chen, and whether this action would offend Concubine Chen further and thus annoy her royal brother.
Princess Yun'an looked up at Shen Zhinian and said coldly, "Noble Concubine Chen, even if you are now second only to the emperor and above everyone else, the harem is not a place where you can cover the sky with one hand!"
"As long as I am here, I will never let you wrongly accuse Qingyang today!"
If it was someone else, Shen Zhinian would definitely argue with her and would never allow her to act arrogant in front of him.
But Princess Yun'an... Shen Zhinian was simply troubled by her stupidity. She felt it was a waste of words to say one more word to such an idiot.
Seeing her protecting Qingliang like this, Concubine Chen had no reaction at all. She was so arrogant!
Princess Yun'an's eyes were filled with more anger, and she could only look at Nangong Xuanyu: "Brother, I and Qingyang are your blood brothers and sisters! Do you really want to watch Concubine Chen wrongly accuse and murder your siblings? Brother..."
There was a flash of impatience in the emperor's eyes, but he still said: "Noble Concubine Chen is never a person who makes rumors without evidence. Whether Qingyang has been wronged or not, we will know the answer after we bring the witnesses here."
Princess Yun'an wanted to say something, but Xiao Zhouzi came in with a little eunuch and a little palace maid.
Seeing them, Princess Qingyang's face turned slightly pale, but she bit her lips and forced herself to remain calm.
Don't panic!
She can't panic!
It is not the last moment yet, she still has the final trump card, she must not surrender to Concubine Chen at this time!
The two of them knelt on the ground and saluted tremblingly: "Your servants pay their respects to His Majesty! Pay their respects to the Imperial Concubine Chen..."
