Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 611 Choose to Believe in Nian Nian (Additional chapter for [Distant Mountains Like Yesterday

Shufei was just hinting at it, but Shen Zhinian said it openly in front of everyone, which made her seem like she had no guilt at all.

Some people who originally doubted Shen Zhinian began to hesitate at this time.

Concubine Shu looked at her with hatred in her eyes and asked, "Isn't it?"

"Xian Fei, do you dare to say that you didn't deliberately leak this news to me, waiting for me to take action against you so that you can catch me?"

"Why are you pretending in front of His Majesty now?!"

Shen Zhinian cast a contemptuous look at Concubine Shu.

So what?

If Concubine Shu had no ill intentions towards her, it would be in vain no matter how much she revealed the news.

It was Concubine Shu who was stupid and insisted on jumping into this pit. If you don't have the ability to get rid of her, what does it have to do with her?

In the struggle in the harem, instead of reflecting on one's own incompetence, one blames the opponent. How ridiculous!

Of course, Shen Zhinian would not admit it in front of Nangong Xuanyu.

Before she could speak, Concubine Sun frowned and said, "What Concubine Shu said is really unreasonable."

"Let's not talk about the news that His Majesty and the Concubine Xian are going to leave the palace. Where did you hear it from? You are the one who hired the murderer and you are the one who wanted to kill him. How come you act like the Concubine Xian is the sinner?"

"In your eyes, the victim has become the guilty person? I'm sorry, I can't agree with that!"

Concubine Shu’s teeth were almost broken!

In the past in the Qiandi Palace, Concubine Sun was just a concubine with no name or status, and she didn't even have the qualifications to speak to her.

But now, Noble Lady Sun has hooked up with Concubine Xian and even dares to show off in front of her!

Concubine Shu glared at Concubine Sun fiercely, then turned to look at Nangong Xuanyu: "Your Majesty, that is not what I meant."

"I just want to say that although I am wrong, the virtuous concubine is not completely innocent either!"

"She disregarded your safety, disclosed your whereabouts, and single-handedly orchestrated this matter. Should she be punished together with me?"

Nangong Xuanyu ignored Concubine Shu and looked at Shen Zhinian with a complicated expression: "Concubine Xian, I want to hear you say."

Different from the rage she showed when facing Concubine Shu, when Shen Zhinian looked at Nangong Xuanyu, in her charming and affectionate eyes, besides grievance, there was also a hint of disappointment...

"Your Majesty, what does this concubine want to hear from you?"

"I am able to predict and make sure that after Concubine Shu learns of this news, she will definitely send someone to assassinate me on the night of the Lantern Festival?"

"Or do you have extraordinary martial arts skills? Are you sure you can survive the hands of a bloodthirsty assassin?"

"That night, you clearly saw it too. I almost lost my life..."

"Could it be that I would not care about myself or the infant Ah Xu and hand my life over to the assassin?"

"Your Majesty actually believed such nonsense just because of Concubine Shu's words. Ha..."

At this point, Shen Zhinian's voice became even lower, and she even choked up a little: "You clearly promised that you would never doubt me again..."

The emperor's doubts were mostly gone, and he subconsciously explained: "Niannian, that's not what I meant..."

However, Shen Zhinian had already turned his head away, looking aggrieved and unwilling to listen to his explanation.

Fuqiu stood up and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered something."

"I heard from the palace maids in Zhongcui Palace that on the Lantern Festival, the eldest princess went to Zhongcui Palace to look for the queen, wanting to eat Yuanxiao with her."

"At that time, the queen had already left the palace with you, so the palace servants told the eldest princess that the queen was not feeling well and would not see guests, and invited her to visit Zhongcui Palace another day."

"I didn't take this matter to heart that day, but now that I think about it carefully... Did the Concubine Shu know about this and guess that the Concubine is no longer in the palace?"

There was a flash of panic in Concubine Shu's eyes, and she subconsciously said in defense: "That's nonsense!"

"If I really only learned about this from Yun'er on the Lantern Festival, how could I have arranged for Xiao Huazi to leave the palace a few days in advance?"

"It's obvious that Concubine Xian deliberately revealed this news to me!"

Shen Zhinian slowly stood up and knelt on the ground. She did not defend herself any more, but lowered her head and said, "If Your Majesty really believes that the facts are as Concubine Shu said, then punish me as well."

It looked like he was angry with the emperor after being wronged.

Concubine Kang said calmly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu has been in charge of the six palaces for so long. How can anyone compare to her in terms of the number of people and spies she has in the palace?"

"It's not surprising that she learned that you were going to take the virtuous concubine out of the palace on the Lantern Festival."

"It is not impossible that someone who can hire someone to kill the Concubine Xian is so vicious and will throw dirty water on her after seeing what happened today."

Seeing the grievance and disappointment in Shen Zhinian's eyes, Nangong Xuanyu suddenly felt flustered...

He had promised himself that he would never doubt Nian Nian again. If he believed the instigation of Concubine Shu, and still doubted her when Nian Nian was injured by an assassin and almost died...

Nian Nian must have developed a grudge against him in her heart.

The emperor's suspicions were gone, and he personally stepped forward to help Shen Zhinian up, saying in a helpless and doting tone: "Your injury hasn't healed yet, what are you doing?"

"I said I will not doubt you anymore and I will not let you suffer any unnecessary grievances."

Shen Zhinian's pretended strength was broken, tears flashed in his eyes, and he said with emotion: "Your Majesty..."

"I thought I was being wronged again, and there was no way I could defend myself..."

Nangong Xuanyu felt a pain in his heart, and his tone became a little softer: "Alright, alright. With me here, how can I let others slander you?"

Shen Zhinian then nodded and sat back in his chair looking aggrieved.

Concubine Shu was dumbfounded!

The virtuous concubine, the virtuous concubine... The virtuous concubine is such a good actress!!!

The virtuous concubine clearly knew what was going on, yet she could still pretend to be so innocent? !

It's you who are the one who can't defend yourself!

At this moment, Concubine Shu finally understood what it meant to be wronged by someone, and only then did she realize how wronged she was!

It was a pity that she kept quibbling and biting back and forth, which made the emperor, who already disliked her, feel disgusted even to look at her for one more second.

"What are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear that I ordered Liu to commit suicide?"

Li Changde immediately responded "Yes" and ordered two young eunuchs to drag Liu Shiqing out.

Liu Shiqing stared at Shen Zhinian with deep hatred in her eyes: "Your Majesty, everything I said is true! I was really tricked by Concubine Xian, which is why I made such a big mistake!"

"You must believe me, Your Majesty..."

Xiao Huizi didn't dare to attack Concubine Shu, but she was not afraid of a commoner. She immediately took out a handkerchief and covered Liu Shiqing's mouth.

“Mother——!!!”

The eldest princess ran in from outside crying and pushed away the eunuch who was holding Liu Shiqing: "Don't touch my mother!"
