Chapter 868: Chapter 884-leniency to those who confess
Translator: 549690339
The emperor’s words fell, but the chief eunuch serving him did not have time to investigate.
In the sleeping chambers, a person knelt down with a plop. It was Consort Shu.
After Shu Fei knelt down, she sadly said,””Reporting to the Emperor, chenqie knows who poisoned the Emperor, but chenqie does not dare to say.”
As soon as Consort Shu finished speaking, many people in the sleeping Palace turned to look at her. The Empress’s face suddenly paled and her fingers subconsciously clenched, her heart in an unspeakable panic.
“Speak! Who poisoned me?” the Emperor thunderously shouted.
Consort Shu raised her hand and pointed at the Empress, saying sorrowfully,””Replying to the Emperor, it was the Empress who poisoned the Emperor.”
When the Empress heard this, her body swayed and she knelt down with a plop. She screamed,””Emperor, chenqie didn’t do anything. Chenqie didn’t do anything. Why would chenqie poison Your Majesty?”
The Empress’s words made the Emperor slightly suspicious. What reason did the Empress have to poison him? when the Crown Prince died, she didn’t hate him, so why would she poison him now?
That’s not possible.
Just as the Emperor was feeling puzzled, Consort Shu quickly spoke.
“Your Majesty, Prince Huai is not my son. He is the son of the Empress. Because the Emperor ordered him to be flogged 30 times last night, the Empress hated you and poisoned you.”
When Consort Shu finished speaking, the Emperor, Empress Dowager, and the others were stunned, while the Empress turned to look at Consort Shu, fiercely glaring at her ...
She thought of her son’s previous words. He suspected that Consort Shu already knew that he was not her son and that the reason her son had an affair with the emperor’s woman was because this woman had drugged him.
It must be like this.
As the Empress was thinking, the Emperor spoke ruthlessly,””Consort Shu, are you crazy?”
Consort Shu shook her head.
“I’m not crazy. If the Emperor doesn’t believe me, think about it. His Highness Huai Prince does not resemble me at all. His Highness Huai Prince does not look like me or the Emperor, but he looks like the Empress and more like the Jiang family.”
“I heard a lot of rumors about the Barbarian language. I didn’t believe it at first. Later, I secretly did a blood test with Prince Huai, and the result was that he was not my son.”
Consort Shu burst into tears after she finished speaking, her heart broken.
She was pitiful.
The son that she had raised for so many years was not her son in the end. Anyone would be sad.
The Emperor was filled with unspeakable anger. He turned around and looked fiercely at the Empress.”Empress, is Shu Fei’s words true?”
How could the Empress admit it now? she firmly denied it.
“Your Majesty, Consort Shu is speaking nonsense. Everything she says is fake, fake.”
“Men,” the Emperor immediately ordered,”bring Prince Huai here immediately. Drip a drop of blood on him to identify his family with the Empress.”
The eunuch quickly accepted the order and left. Behind him, the Empress’s body trembled and her face was pale. Seeing the eunuch run out, she knelt down with a thud.
If he did not admit it now, his crime would be even greater when he brought his son over and confirmed their relationship with blood.
Therefore, the Empress chose to be honest.
“Emperor, chenqie deserves to die. Please punish chenqie. Huai Prince, he, he is indeed bengong’s son.”
As the Empress finished speaking, the emperor’s expression was frighteningly ugly. He had already been poisoned, vomited blood, and his body was weak. Now that he was angered by the Empress, he was so angry that he almost fainted.
Beside him, the Empress Dowager quickly calmed him down. The Empress Dowager shouted coldly,””Empress Jiang, you’re a lunatic. Prince Huai is your son. Who is the Crown Prince?”
