He slowly raised a cup of tea and handed it to Emperor Ming, and said leisurely: "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Emperor Ming's face was extremely ugly, but he still raised his hand to take it, and Gulu took a sip of tea.
Queen Zhou, however, was angry and panicked: "How dare you talk nonsense? Come here, I will drag you down and give you a hundred blows!"
The eunuchs in the palace seemed to have not heard the Queen's instructions at all and remained motionless.
Cang Qiao glanced at her lightly: "The Queen has lost her composure."
Queen Zhou was looked at by Cang Qiao's gloomy eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and she suddenly felt like she was in an ice cave.
Only then did she remember that Minglan Ruo was released by Cang Qiao. Cang Qiao was an eunuch who was extremely vengeful and cruel. Could it be that he felt that he had refuted his face?
Ming Lanruo said leisurely: "Princess Qin is pregnant with her legitimate son recently. The empress should be very happy to see that the princess has lost her child."
She paused, looked at Queen Zhou and smiled: "After all, there is no legitimate grandson in the East Palace, but King Qin has your majesty's first legitimate grandson, which is really a good bargaining chip to compete for the throne."
Calculating the time, Shangguan Hongye's princess should be almost two months pregnant at this time, but they hid it from Emperor Ming and planned to wait until the pregnancy was stable.
Even Cang Qiao hadn't found out about this news yet, so Emperor Ming immediately looked at Empress Zhou suspiciously.
How did Empress Zhou know that Ming Lanruo actually dragged her into trouble, but it was true that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, and she kept it secret...
"It seems that what Princess Mourning said is true." Emperor Ming suddenly smiled gloomily.
Empress Zhou immediately knelt down with a "pop" sound, her gentle face full of tears——
"Your Majesty, you know that it was because of my concubine's frailty and illness that Hongye's child stayed in the capital to co-chair the Criminal Department. This was all allowed by Your Majesty. Princess Qin didn't say she was pregnant, she just wanted to wait until the pregnancy was stable."
Emperor Ming was a very suspicious person, and it was a fact that Queen Zhou supported King Qin, so any concealment she made would be a crime for him!
Just like Ming Lanruo said, the only people who really benefited from the miscarriage of the Princess of the East Palace were the Queen and King Qin, but King Qin also had a legitimate son at this time!
Emperor Ming even suspected that the queen was the mastermind behind the miscarriage in the East Palace.
He sneered: "Since the Queen is sick, let's stay sick and let the Concubine Xian be in charge of the Sixth Palace. King Qin won't have to go to the Ministry of Punishment, so he can just serve you honestly."
Queen Zhou's eyes widened in disbelief, and she almost collapsed, shouting in pain - "Your Majesty, you can't!"
When she was helped down by the palace maid, she couldn't help but look at Ming Lanruo hatefully, but she still saw her looking at her expressionlessly.
Empress Zhou felt chilled by her gaze. Ming Lanruo was not as simple as she seemed, and she was completely defeated in just a few words.
She bit her lip bitterly, regretting for the first time that she had gotten involved in the feud between the sisters in the Duke's Palace of the Ming Dynasty.
Originally, I just wanted to see the Eastern Palace fall and the Ming sisters kill each other and reap the benefits!
Unexpectedly, he was dragged into the water. Not only did he lose the power of the Sixth Palace, but he also lost his son's position as co-chairman of the Criminal Department!
Ming Lanruo withdrew her gaze and looked at her thin white fingertips calmly.
In this life, I originally didn’t want to get involved in these struggles for power, but someone who didn’t know what to do happened to bump into me.
In her previous life, she had done cruel and ruthless things and sow discord, no less than these people. Now everyone thinks she is stupid and sweet...
After Ming Yueying was frightened, she couldn't believe that the queen was so defeated.
She shouted unwillingly: "Your Majesty, please don't be misled by her few words. Either the Queen harmed my child, or Ming Lanruo personally pushed me down."
Emperor Ming then remembered that Ming Yueying really had no reason to help the queen kill her own child, so Ming Lanruo was still the only suspect!
"Ming Lanruo, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll just give you the punishment of beheading and tattooing as the queen said!" He looked at Ming Lanruo coldly.
He still thought the Queen's suggestion of using torture to Ming Lanruo was feasible.
Ming Lanruo suddenly raised her eyes and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I did not push the Crown Princess into the water. I can prove it."
Ming Yueying sneered: "How can you prove that there are only you and me present, and everyone saw your hands." This chapter has been completed!
