As she recalled it, Xiao Lanxin became even more puzzled. This thing should have been destroyed, so how could it be found six months later? And it was still in the hands of the emperor?
Xiao Zhe had been looking at Xiao Lanxin's expression. When he saw her in a daze, he couldn't help but taunted her coldly: "What? You don't want to tell me that you don't know this thing, do you?"
"I... of course I know him!" Xiao Lanxin stammered in reply.
Then he defended: "This spice box disappeared half a year ago, and I was still sad at that time. Such unique spices are extremely precious, and I don't know when I lost them. At that time, the princess felt regretful for a long time!
"
"Brother Emperor, I wonder where you found this?"
"Oh? Lost it? Half a year ago, the Queen had a miscarriage, and your spice box happened to be gone. What a coincidence that it disappeared?"
Xiao Che squinted his eyes and looked at Xiao Lanxin coldly.
"Yes! I searched for a long time, but I couldn't find it in the end. Why did the emperor find it today and bring it here? Why didn't he give it to the emperor earlier? Doesn't the emperor know that the emperor always likes these things?
"
Jiaojiao was soft and soft, with a bit of a coquettish tone in it, but if her face hadn't been so ugly, he would have really believed her.
It seems that there is really a problem!
Xiao Che looked at Xiao Lanxin with cold eyes, wishing to cut her into pieces.
"Do you really not know what I am talking about? Or have you already thought of some excuse to deal with me?"
Xiao Che looked at Xiao Lanxin coldly, not missing a trace of her expression.
Xiao Lanxin tried her best to endure the fear in her heart and showed a pale smile to Xiao Che.
"Brother Emperor, sister Emperor, don't you understand what you are talking about?"
"Humph! You don't understand?" The queen couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to slap Xiao Lanxin on the face.
"If it weren't for you, how could I have lost my child? It's all because of you! You bitch!"
After saying that, he wanted to take action again, but Xiao Lanxin grabbed his arm fiercely.
"Ha! What did I do to you? It's obviously because of your own incompetence and frailty. Otherwise, how could you not even be able to keep a child? To put it bluntly, you are incompetent!"
He successfully shook off the queen, and quickly scraped the queen's cheek with his free hand. However, Xiao Che caught him halfway.
"That's enough! Xiao Lanxin, you are really getting more and more shameless! Are you crazy enough?" Xiao Zhe slapped Xiao Lanxin hard and glared at Xiao Lanxin: "You
Do you really think I am dead?"
"I haven't done it, I just haven't done it! Do you want to force the accusation on my head? Aren't you afraid that I will tell my mother?"
Seeing that Xiao Che wanted to press him for questioning, Xiao Lanxin jumped over the wall and moved out of the Queen Mother's house.
Unexpectedly, this happened to hit Xiao Che's heart.
Since he ascended the throne, all power has been in the hands of the Queen Mother. Many ministers in the court have privately reacted that he, the emperor, is a loser. All major affairs are in the hands of the Queen Mother. To put it nicely, he is the head of a country. In fact,
Just a puppet.
His anger rose to the top of his head in an instant. Xiao Zhe had completely lost his mind and slapped Xiao Lanxin with his backhand.
There was a snap, which made the queen tremble in fright.
It hurts to hear it.
"In front of me, you open and close your mouth as the Queen Mother, and you don't take me seriously!
Does it mean that the Queen Mother gave you the status of an adopted daughter, so you feel that you are really a beloved princess? In front of me, you are nothing!"
Xiao Che pointed at Xiao Lanxin's nose and cursed loudly. He didn't look like an emperor at all.
"You don't want to admit it? Okay! Then I will find the person for you. Then I will see how you can deceive me with your eloquent words?"
After that, he gave an order to the people outside the door.
People were quickly brought up.
When Xiao Lanxin heard Xiao Che's words, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart. Sure enough, after seeing the person being escorted in, Xiao Lanxin's face turned pale again.
Isn't this person the little maid he deliberately bribed in the queen's palace in order to make the queen pay the price?
In order for the queen to get the punishment she deserved, she had to put in a lot of effort to find out the little maid's life experience, and then threatened the little maid with his family. Otherwise, how could anyone be willing to do this?
Is he working hard?
Although she was a princess, as Xiao Zhe said, he was simply relying on the Queen Mother's love for him to do whatever he wanted in this palace that did not belong to her.
But there were only a few people in the palace who were truly willing to sacrifice their lives for her.
"May I have your name?"
Xiao Che glanced at Xiao Lanxin coldly, turned to Zhu'er and asked.
"My name is Zhu'er. I am a servant in the Queen's palace."
Zhu'er lowered her head, trembling, and secretly glanced at Xiao Lanxin when no one was paying attention.
Xiao Lanxin glared at her, feeling extremely scared.
Pearl was so frightened that she lowered her head again.
"Tell me, who ordered you to harm the child in the Queen's belly?"
Pearl was shaking in panic.
"I already know everything. If you still refuse to tell the truth in front of me, then what is waiting for you is to be executed! You have to think clearly about whether to tell or not to tell!"
"My slave, my slave said." Zhu'er closed her eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and nodded in agreement.
"The slave was originally the Queen's wife, but one time the queen and the princess got into trouble because of something. The princess found the slave at that time and wanted the slave to do something for the princess. After the slave knew what the princess wanted the slave to do.
Originally I was unwilling, but helpless, the princess had already checked out everything about the slave’s family, and even threatened the slave’s younger brother and parents. The slave had no choice but to agree..."
"You're talking nonsense! When did this princess let you, a cheap servant, do such a thing for me? Queen, I really didn't expect that in order to give yourself some comfort, you would actually harm me like this.
This person is obviously yours at first glance, and yet he framed me with such an excuse, you are really capable!"
Xiao Lanxin stared at Zhu'er, wishing she could go forward and kill this cheap maid she called.
"Your Majesty, I didn't lie. Really, I didn't lie! The princess really used my parents as a blackmail, so I had no choice but to do something that hurt the queen and the little prince."
Pearl looked at the emperor in horror and shook her head violently: "I still know what the princess has done. Your parents and younger brother are in the princess's bedroom.
Every time the princess will ask the slave to see her relatives, in order to make the slave work for her wholeheartedly."
