Zhao Jieyu's natal family is just outside the palace, and her father, Zhao Xifeng, is in charge of the frontier. Now the person in charge of the Zhao Mansion is Zhao Xifeng's wife, Peng Huayue, Mrs. Peng.
To be able to become a general's wife, Peng Huayue is naturally a queen of famous people, not a stupid person.
Is your daughter having an affair with someone?
Peng Huayue didn't believe it at all. She felt that she was being tricked from the beginning, but she couldn't think of a way to do it and paced back and forth in the room anxiously.
"If it really doesn't work, I can only ask my husband to come forward, but then..."
"Madam! There is someone in the palace!"
A rushing voice adjusted Peng Huayue's thoughts.
She suddenly raised her head and pushed the door open, "Please come quickly!"
Soon, Xiao Chen and his party were invited into the study. Peng Huayue looked at the young father-in-law in front of her, feeling uneasy, not knowing whether it was bad or good.
"Old Madam, you should know about the affairs in the palace."
Xiao Chen's tone was respectful, without making any excuses.
Peng Huayue nodded lightly, and then bowed directly to Xiao Chen, "Mr. Xiao, I am willing to use my wealth and life to guarantee that Qiu Shuang will never have an affair. Please be aware of it!"
"This is impossible! Madam, please get up quickly!"
Xiao Chen quickly stretched out his hand to help her. This lady was a genuine second-grade imperial concubine. How could he ask her to salute him?
After helping the other party up, Xiao Chen exhaled, "Madam, to be honest, the villain was framed by others this time. He and the queen are a grasshopper on the same rope. The villain also believes that the queen has not had an affair, but we believe It’s useless, someone has to believe it.”
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and pointed toward the sky.
When Peng Huayue heard these words, her eyes towards Xiao Chen suddenly became much kinder, and she asked Xiao Chen to sit down. She sighed and said, "I wonder what my father-in-law has to say? If my father-in-law can clear away the grievances of the little girl, the Zhao family will definitely have a lot of success." Thank you very much!”
"Just do your best."
Xiao Chen was not completely sure, so he pondered for a moment and said: "Old madam, your Majesty came back three months ago to visit her relatives. I want to meet all the men in your house who have contact with your Majesty."
"this……"
Peng Huayue's face changed slightly.
"Don't get me wrong, madam. According to the villain's speculation, the empress must have faked her pregnancy. The investigation is only to clear the grievances of the empress."
Xiao Chen quickly explained to avoid misunderstanding.
"Okay! Mr. Xiao, wait for a moment, I will call them over immediately."
Peng Huayue thought for a while, and out of trust for her daughter, she stopped stopping her.
If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows!
The clearer the investigation, the more innocence can be proven!
The Zhao Mansion was very large, so there were not a few men in the manor. Even if the old lady gave the order, it took nearly half an hour to gather the people.
"Go and find the servants who are waiting for you first."
Xiao Chen gave instructions to Xiang Yichun and others.
Several people immediately followed the instructions and started interrogating the person. They didn't think they could find out the truth. They were just going through the motions to prove the queen's innocence.
"Master Xiao, who do you think was behind this incident?"
While everyone was asking questions, Peng Huayue narrowed her eyes and asked.
"Who ordered it?"
Xiao Chen smiled, "The old lady should know better than the villain."
As soon as these words came out, Peng Huayue's face suddenly darkened. Who else in the harem could have such insidious methods and such great energy?
Only Concubine Rong!
"Master Xiao, this person must not be found. Since it is a false pregnancy, wouldn't it be possible to find a female doctor to diagnose the little girl in order to prove her innocence?"
Suppressing the anger in her heart for the time being, Peng Huayue turned to look at Xiao Chen.
In her opinion, as long as the matter is clarified and the Zhao family is behind her, even the emperor cannot be so heartless.
But after hearing her words, Xiao Chen shook his head, "Old madam, there is something you probably don't know. Your Majesty has never touched your empress since she entered the palace, but she is no longer a virgin."
Uh-huh!
Peng Huayue's old face turned pale instantly, and her legs shook uncontrollably, "How is this possible? Mr. Xiao, don't say such nonsense!"
"This is what the empress said herself. She once used her own hands..."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly, "Old madam, what do you think your Majesty will do if he knows about this?"
What will happen?
A concubine in the harem, but she is so lonely that she has to solve problems by herself.
Doesn't this represent His Majesty's incompetence?
It would be fine if His Majesty was kind and kind, but His Majesty is a very respectable person, how could he tolerate such behavior?
Peng Huayue figured out the crux of the problem at once, her body swayed, and she almost fell to the ground, "So, does this mean that the little girl must die?"
Xiao Chen said nothing, and he felt a little confused about this situation.
Just when both of them were worried, a loud roar suddenly came from below, "What did you say?! Tell me again!"
This voice instantly focused everyone's attention.
I saw Xiang Yichun grabbing a servant by the collar with one hand, his face full of ferocity, as if he was choosing someone to devour!
As for the servant, his face was pale and his whole body was trembling.
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat and he quickly walked over, "What's going on?"
"Speak for yourself!"
Xiang Yichun threw the servant to the ground with one hand.
The huge strength made the servant scream. It took him a while to recover, and he got up from the ground, tremblingly saying: "I... the villain is guilty! Someone should not have an affair with the queen... The villain deserves it." Death! His crime deserves death!"
Just one sentence made everyone change their minds.
Having an affair with your empress?
It's him? !
He even admitted his guilt! !
"thump!"
Peng Huayue's body swayed and she fainted from the excitement.
This confession is irrefutable!
Not only Zhao Jieyu, but also the entire Zhao family may be implicated!
Xiao Chen immediately rushed forward and kicked the man to the ground, "Cao! What the hell are you talking about!"
"S-Sir, I don't have any lies!"
The servant kept kowtowing, "My name is Zhao Si. Three months ago, my wife came back to visit her relatives. That night..."
"Shut up!"
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed and he gave a cold drink.
While Xiang Yichun was still dazed, Wei Yun rushed forward, grabbed Zhao Si's head, and pushed him directly into the ground.
Zhao Si could only make a "wuwuwu" sound.
Xiao Chen glanced at him appreciatively. He did a good job. If Zhao Si was allowed to finish his words and form a complete confession, the situation would be even more unfavorable for them!
"Cover his mouth and take him to the room!"
"in addition……"
Xiao Chen looked at the other servants in the Zhao Mansion, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes, "If anyone dares to spread the word about today's events, they will be killed without mercy!"
None of the servants dared to look at him, and they all lowered their heads.
Xiao Chen then helped Peng Huayue and returned to the room.
Bang.
The door is tightly closed!
