Her intuition, which had been in the palace for a long time, suddenly sounded, and she spoke alertly: "How could something of this unknown origin appear in the princess's purse? Which careless palace maid put it in?"
The Thirteenth Princess did not realize the problem at this time: "Everything I carry with me was prepared by Chunliu and the others..."
Concubine Shu immediately interrupted her: "Come here, bring Chunliu and others."
A palace maid hurriedly saluted, turned around and went out to summon someone.
The prince said: "I don't care whether this thing belongs to Thirteen or the palace maid. Since the origin is unknown, let's open it and take a look."
Concubine Shu had a very bad premonition, and she subconsciously stopped her: "Is it better not to give it up? Your Majesty is here, just in case it is something dangerous..."
"No problem." Emperor Zhaoming waved his hand and signaled to Eunuch Su, "Open it and let me have a look."
"yes."
Eunuch Su quickly agreed and opened the paper package gently.
The curiosity of everyone present was aroused and they watched intently, including King Xiang, King Cheng and others.
Only Zhan Beihan didn't watch it.
He looked across the crowd and accurately captured Xiao Lingyue.
I saw this woman standing in the crowd with her head lowered and an obedient and quiet expression, as if she had no interest in this matter and did not even look up.
The meaning in Zhan Beihan's eyes was unclear.
"This... this is..." Eunuch Su opened the paper bag, revealing a small packet of red powder inside.
The powder is very fine and melts when wet, and a strange aroma spreads as soon as it is opened.
The thirteenth princess's expression suddenly changed, and she couldn't help but take a step back.
But at this moment, everyone's attention was on the packet of medicinal powder, and no one noticed her gaffe.
The red powder has a fragrant aroma.
Eunuch Su was unprepared for a moment and subconsciously took a deep breath. Soon his face turned red, his breathing became rapid, and sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Eunuch Su!" The prince noticed something was wrong and shouted in a deep voice.
Eunuch Su suddenly came to his senses, hurriedly closed the paper bag, and knelt on the ground in fear: "My servant was careless, please forgive me."
Emperor Zhaoming said solemnly: "What is this?"
Eunuch Su broke out in a cold sweat: "Back to Your Majesty... this, this should be... a love drug banned in the palace, it is quite powerful..."
Emperor Zhaoming: "What?!"
Everyone's faces suddenly changed and they looked at the Thirteenth Princess in disbelief.
Why is there such a thing in the purse she carries with her?
What decent person would carry something like this with him?
Not to mention the royal princess.
The eighth princess looked at the medicine bag in Eunuch Su's hand, her eyes turned red, and she couldn't help but hold Wen Shaoqing's hand tightly, and her body was trembling slightly with fear.
Wen Shaoqing held her back and gently patted the back of her hand, with a cold light like ice in his eyes.
You don't need to think about it to know who this potent/medicated powder, which should not have appeared in the palace, was originally intended to be used against.
If the eighth princess hadn't been so lucky... no one dares to imagine what would have happened now.
The first one to recover from the shock and the first to attack was Concubine Wen.
There seemed to be burning anger in her eyes, and there was no trace of her usual gentleness. She said sternly: "Princess Thirteen, please explain to me why you have this kind of thing on your body? What on earth do you want to do?!"
The thirteenth princess turned pale and instinctively shouted: "No! This is not my thing!"
"How dare you say that the things found in your purse are not yours!" Concubine Wen was furious, "You are so brave, how dare you use such obscene things in the palace to murder your Eighth Emperor sister!
"
Princess Thirteen: "This is not mine, I don't know what it is!"
Concubine Shu had a bad premonition, and she immediately said: "Concubine Wen, the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so don't make arbitrary conclusions!"
