Shen Luoxi lowered her eyes. She had already heard what the queen meant. The queen was planning to protect the nanny.
She looked calm and said bluntly: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows. If you are innocent, the Queen naturally does not have to worry. In the end, you will still be a loyal servant of the Queen."
"But if not, the Queen will do a good deed besides harming your evil servant."
The queen's voice was slightly cold, "Princess Xuan's words seem to have confirmed that grandma has done something. In everything, you must provide evidence instead of falsely accusing good people."
The nanny standing next to her glanced sideways at Shen Luoxi, then stepped forward and knelt in front of the emperor and queen.
"I have served the Queen for more than ten years. I am an upright person and have never done a single evil thing. But now I am framed like this by Princess Xuan!"
"I dare to swear to God that if I ever do anything harmful to God, I will be struck by five thunderbolts from the sky, and I will not die a good death!"
After saying that, she kowtowed heavily.
Shen Luoxi looked at her coldly, and then met her gaze.
Mammy mocked: "How dare I make such a poisonous oath, Princess Xuan?"
"I was innocent and was wronged. Why did I make a guilty vow with my grandma?" Shen Luoxi asked in return.
Grandma was stunned for a moment, unable to react, "You!"
Shen Luoxi no longer paid attention to her, but walked to the palace ladies and said calmly, "Girls, please extend your hands."
The maids looked at each other and took out their hands after a moment.
Mammy smiled coldly, "I thought Princess Xuan would come up with some extraordinary skills, but it turned out that the thunder was loud and the rain was small."
"If Princess Ruoxuan can't produce evidence, please don't delay the Queen's rest, or hurt the Queen's golden body. You can't afford it!"
Shen Luoxi's expression did not change, and she carefully looked at the palms of each palace maid.
At this time, a palace maid had a burnt mark on her hand.
The palace maid felt uncomfortable being looked at by Shen Luoxi. She wanted to take her hand back but she grabbed it.
"How did the girl get the injury on her hand?"
Without waiting for the palace maid to answer, the nanny said angrily from the side: "She is a sweeping palace maid, what kind of dirty and tiring work has she never done? Isn't it the most common thing to have some injuries on her hands?"
The palace maid glanced at the nanny and replied in a low voice: "The slave accidentally hurt me while lighting the fire..."
"If it was burned by fire, there should be charred spots, but this looks like it was burned by water." Shen Luoxi looked at her with a half-smile.
The palace maid immediately tensed up and replied hesitantly: "This slave has to do too much work every day. Maybe I accidentally remembered it wrong."
After hearing her words, everyone present could tell that there was something wrong with this palace maid.
Shen Luoxi grabbed her hand and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, she lied. This wound was neither a burn nor a scald, but was burned by Hedinghong."
"Hedinghong is highly poisonous. It will cause a burning sensation when touching the skin. This girl's wound has begun to fester. I just checked her pulse. She has been poisoned. Your Majesty can ask other imperial doctors to check. See if what I said is true or false."
The queen's face changed slightly when she heard this, her hands under her robe clenched into fists, and her nails dug into her palms.
She saw her grandma, who was so panicked that she didn't know what to do.
"Come here, go get the imperial doctor."
"yes."
When the eunuch walked out, the color on Mammy's face had gone. She hurriedly looked at the Queen, who could only signal her not to panic.
Not long after, the imperial doctor followed the eunuch and hurried into the imperial study.
The imperial physician wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and saluted the emperor and empress.
"See the Emperor and the Queen."
The emperor nodded, "Can you please Dr. Xu to check whether the palace maid is poisoned?"
"Doctor Xu, please look carefully. This is a human life after all." The queen said meaningfully.
The sweat that Doctor Xu had just wiped off broke out again. He shook his legs and stepped forward to diagnose the maid's pulse. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Shen Luoxi beside him say: "It's a matter of great importance. If something goes wrong, not only will It’s the Queen who will blame Dr. Xu, and the Emperor even more so.”
"It took me many years of ups and downs in the officialdom to achieve my current status. It would be a pity if I disappeared."
Only Shen Luoxi and Doctor Xu could hear this sound, and others could only see Shen Luoxi's mouth move.
Doctor Xu sweated even more, and for a moment he didn't know how to speak.
"How's it going, Doctor Xu?" the emperor asked.
Shen Luoxi looked at Dr. Xu with a half-smile. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. He turned around and knelt in front of the emperor and said, "This palace lady seems to have been poisoned. Weichen's medical skills are not good and she is not as good as Princess Xuan. Please give me some advice." Your Majesty, forgive me!"
The emperor frowned, but did not blame him. He raised his hand and asked him to exit the imperial study.
Doctor Xu felt relieved and hurriedly walked out.
Shen Luoxi didn't take it seriously, knowing that he didn't want to offend either of them, so he saluted the emperor and said, "I have a few words to ask this palace maid. Please allow your permission."
Grandma just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what she said and mentioned it again, "Mr. Xu is the oldest imperial doctor in the palace. Even he said that she seemed to be poisoned, but it may not really be poisoned. However, Princess Xuan still kept her pace." force."
"Princess Xuan, are you trying to force this palace maid to admit it?"
Shen Luoxi looked calm, turned around, walked up to her mother, raised her hand and slapped her hard.
The crisp sound of the slap resounded throughout the imperial study, and Mammy looked at her in disbelief, "How dare you hit me!"
"You have behaved inappropriately in front of the Emperor and the Empress again and again. What's the problem if I beat you?" Shen Luoxi asked back, "The Emperor and the Empress thought that you were an old slave, so they were so lenient. Not only did you not harbor any grievances, I’m so grateful, and I’m so pampered!”
"I really can't stand it, so naturally I have to discipline grandma on behalf of the emperor and the empress, otherwise I don't know what will happen in the future!"
Shen Luoxi spoke so plausibly that Grandma couldn't refute a single word.
The emperor looked at Shen Luoxi meaningfully and said, "Well, there is no need to delay business for a slave. Princess Xuan can ask whatever she wants."
"Yes." Shenluoxi followed Shanruliu.
She stood in front of the palace maid, her eyes slightly cold, "Girl, you still have half an hour to save yourself, but if you are willing to tell who instigated you to frame He Ding Hong on me, I am willing to do it for you." You heal.”
The palace maid's eyes evaded, "I can't understand anything Princess Xuan said."
"You should have felt palpitations and even dizziness since yesterday. You are sweating all over but your hands and feet are cold." Shen Luoxi said calmly: "The imperial doctors in the palace can't save you, let alone the people who instruct you."
"You have to think clearly about how to choose."
The palace maid's face was pale and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
In the palace, she was just a low-level maid, living cautiously and not wanting to die at all!
When the palace maid saw Mammy, she rushed over and knelt directly in front of her, "Mammy, I don't want to die!"
