Mammy stiffened and forgot to push the maid away. After a moment, she slapped the maid on the face.
"Despicable thing, how dare you slander me!"
The palace maid's face instantly became swollen, but she still reached out and hugged Grandma's leg tightly, crying loudly: "This slave is not like Grandma. Even if something happens, the Queen will still protect her."
"If this slave dies, he must be wrapped in a torn straw mat and thrown into a mass grave. Mammy, you should save this slave and just admit it!"
Mammy looked ugly and punched and kicked the palace maid who was hugging her, but the palace maid wouldn't let go.
The queen also darkened her face and asked the maid next to her to step forward and pull them apart.
"How unbecoming it is to tug and pull in front of the emperor!"
Mammy and the palace maid were pulled away, but the palace maid kept crying, "Mammy, you should save this slave. Although this slave has a low life, she doesn't want to die!"
"You bitch, you continue to slander me! Believe it or not, I will beat you to death!"
Shen Luoxi looked at the farce in front of him indifferently, then walked up to his mother and said, "Mom, is it worth it?"
Grandma was stunned when she suddenly asked her, "What do you mean?"
"I really can't bear to see grandma like this." Shen Luoxi sighed softly: "Mom is so loyal, can she really get what she wants in the end? I'm afraid that if I don't serve as a scapegoat in vain, my life and money will be gone. .”
Mammy was silent and subconsciously saw the queen.
Shen Luoxi followed her line of sight, and his eyes fell on the queen vaguely.
The queen's body was tense, not daring to show any panic for fear of being seen through by Shen Luoxi.
"Mommy, if you admit it now, you may still be able to survive. Otherwise, when you get to the punishment department, do you think you can withstand the punishment?" Shen Luoxi asked.
Grandma remained silent.
"It seems that grandma doesn't want to admit it, so I can only find another way."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Luoxi took out a bottle of purple potion and sprinkled a lot of it on her.
"What are you doing!"
Grandma looked panicked and hurriedly checked to see if she was injured.
Shen Luoxi smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, mama, this is not poison, but can you smell the smell of garlic?"
"I didn't eat garlic, why..."
Before Mammy finished speaking, she could smell the spicy smell of garlic becoming more and more obvious.
She looked at Shen Luoxi in surprise, and then said loudly: "Why did Princess Xuan sprinkle garlic juice on me!"
Shen Luoxi shook the bottle in his hand, "This is not garlic juice, it's just a potion that can tell you have touched Hedinghong."
She turned to look at the emperor, and handed the thing in her hand to the eunuch beside the emperor, "Your Majesty, this is the poison test water prepared by me. If anyone has touched Hedinghong, they will smell of garlic."
"Your Majesty, please let your eunuch smell it to see if this is garlic water."
The queen lowered her eyes and moved aside calmly.
Shen Luoxi took in all her movements, and a light flashed in his eyes.
At this time, the emperor took a look at the ordinary bottle and signaled the eunuch to sprinkle the potion on the palace maid. As expected, the smell of garlic came out.
He frowned in discomfort, "Lock them both to the Criminal Department and torture them severely!"
When the maid and the maid heard this, the maid immediately fell to the ground. The maid looked at the queen and wanted to step forward but was stopped.
"Queen, slave..."
"Mommy, you have disappointed me so much." The queen interrupted her, her eyes filled with coldness, "I usually treat you well, why do you want to harm me?"
"If it hadn't been for the timely treatment by the imperial doctor, I would have died a long time ago. You are so cruel..."
The queen's eyes were red and she whispered to her: "You have been with me for more than ten years, and you have eaten and used far more than others. Even the betrothal gifts and dowries for your children were purchased by me for you. .”
"I didn't expect to raise a white-eyed wolf who actually wants to kill me!"
Grandma was blocked by the queen and couldn't say a word. Not only that, she was also threatened with a pair of children!
She looked at Shen Luoxi hatefully, gritted her teeth and said, "I am indeed the one who poisoned the Queen and then framed you!"
"His Royal Highness Prince Lian is the child I have seen since I was a child. It is true that you have caused you to lose the emperor's trust and even be banned from the palace! Your Highness Prince Lian has never been so wronged!"
Shen Luoxi said lightly: "So you want to use this to get rid of me? Aren't you afraid of accidentally killing the Queen?"
Mammy's eyes were red, and she suddenly laughed and said: "If the Queen dies, it will be her fate!"
"But I didn't expect that my plan was so perfect that you could find a flaw!"
Shenluoxi was noncommittal.
"Have you not heard this sentence? If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself."
"The left and right have been discovered. If you want to kill or cut into pieces, let the emperor do whatever you want!"
Even though grandma said that, her body still couldn't help but trembled into chaff.
Shen Luoxi raised an eyebrow, turned around and saluted the emperor, "Please make a decision, your Majesty."
The emperor only glanced at Mammy, and then his eyes fell on her again.
"Drag him down and kill him with a stick."
"Poisoning the Queen is an unpardonable crime!"
The royal guards immediately walked in and took the nanny away. Before leaving, she took a deep look at the queen and then lowered her head with a wry smile.
The queen was still wiping away tears and her voice couldn't stop trembling as she said, "I really didn't expect that grandma is such a person. Fortunately, Princess Xuan saw it, otherwise I don't know when I would die in the hands of that evil servant. "
Shen Luoxi looked at the queen quietly, with a profound look in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have been proven innocent. Can I return home?" she asked.
The emperor nodded, "You have suffered a lot of grievances. Go back and rest early. I will have someone send you off."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Shen Luoxi did not linger, but glanced at the queen when she turned around before striding out of the imperial study.
The queen wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, but there was no sadness in her eyes, only resentment.
…
Prince Xuan's Mansion.
When Shen Luoxi came back, she frightened the concierge. She hurriedly ran to report to Cang Yunxuan, but she beat him to it.
She walked into Cang Yunxuan's study and saw Ning Yanran shyly feeding Cang Yunxuan fruit with her mouth.
Ning Yanran was startled, and the fruit in her mouth rolled directly to the ground.
She said awkwardly: "Sister..."
"Go out, I have something to say to the prince."
Without waiting for Ning Yanran to react, Shen Luoxi drove her out of the study and slammed the door on her face.
Ning Yanran came to her senses and glared at the study with a gloomy face before turning and leaving.
Cang Yunxuan looked at Shen Luoxi coldly, "You came back sooner than I expected."
Shen Luoxi did not answer, but said bluntly: "All this was designed by the Queen. I suspect that the last assassination was also the work of the Queen."
"Your Majesty, the Queen has taken action. There will never be peace in the future. We must make plans in advance."
