The incident involving the concubines caused a big fuss, and the banquet had just ended, so many concubines had just returned to the courtyard and came over when they heard the news.
Hearing what the concubine said at this moment, many concubines standing next to them covered their mouths to hide their expressions, and some of the busybodies joked:
"What you said is wrong, concubine. You dare to have an affair with a foreigner in the summer resort. Who knows what you are carrying..." The concubine who spoke stopped here and covered her mouth.
The place where her words stopped was very spiritual, and she had already begun to question the bloodline in Roubi's belly.
Concubine Rou was angry when she heard this. She still expected the fetus in her belly to flourish. How could she allow others to slander her child's bloodline?
And if the child's bloodline is confused, let alone her dream of flying up a branch and becoming a phoenix, I'm afraid her life and the heads of the whole family will not be saved!
There is no way she can bear such slander!
"Taking nonsense." The extremely angry concubine turned around and glared at the concubine who was speaking, but before she could speak, Han Xianzong spoke in a bored tone.
No matter what, it really made Xianzong of Han Dynasty unhappy to talk about the biological father of the fetus in his concubine's belly in front of him.
The concubine got scolded, and her face suddenly became sullen.
Yu'er lay half-dead on the bench. Han Xianzong glanced at her lightly and saw that her eyes were full of tears, so he guessed that she was not lying.
"Roubi, just now you said Yu'er lied, how do you want to explain now?"
Just now Rou Concubine kept saying that Yu'er was slandering and demanded to be tortured, but now Yu'er was beaten half to death and still didn't change her story, so Han Xianzong set his sights on Rou Concubine again.
Roubi was trembling all over and was speechless. She kept repeating what she just said, saying that she had been slandered.
After she finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Han Xianzong earnestly, hoping that Han Xianzong could help her seek justice.
But the moment she raised her head, she happened to meet Han Xianzong's eyes. The indifference in the other party's eyes was like an ancient well, sending chills down one's spine.
Even if she is as stupid as a concubine, she realizes at this moment that the emperor does not believe in herself at all!
Roubi completely stopped this time and sat down on the ground with a dejected look on her face.
Han Xianzong looked away, not wanting to look at her too much, and waved to Laifu.
Laifu understood and turned around to signal the guards waiting on both sides to pull the man next to Roubi to the front.
"Let me ask you, who are you? How did you sneak into Chengde Summer Resort?"
When Laifu asked this question, his eyebrows were serious and his voice was stern.
Your Majesty just came here today with everyone from the royal family, but a strange man sneaked in at night... If this was an assassin, the consequences would be disastrous!
Thinking of this, Laifu glanced at the head guard beside him with a hidden ruthless look. He was solely responsible for the safety of the Summer Resort this time.
There was such a big mistake this time. It can be expected that after the concubine's matter is settled, the other party will also be held accountable.
"It was Concubine Rou who asked this villain to come in!" The man lowered his head and couldn't see his face clearly, but after hearing Laifu's question, he raised his head.
Xie Ziyue could clearly see that this man had a pretty good appearance, but his eyes were not clear, and he could tell at a glance that he had a dirty look.
"You're talking nonsense!" Xu knew that Emperor Xianzong of Han Dynasty didn't believe him, so the concubine was so disheartened that she even didn't care about her manners, she just wanted to find the person who framed her!
When she heard the man say this, she was like an enraged lioness. She pushed the man to the ground and kicked him:
"Who on earth wants you to frame me? Tell me! Who is it? I have no enmity against you! Why do you want to frame me like this!"
As she spoke, Roubi felt as if all her strength had been drained from her body, and she knelt on the ground and cried:
"Your Majesty, I feel unwell after sitting in the carriage for a long time today. Concubine Rou can also testify on my behalf. It was she who helped me come back!"
As Concubine Rou spoke, she looked towards where the concubines were standing, and Concubine Rou was indeed standing there.
When Han Xianzong looked over, his eyes paused slightly.
Xie Ziyue happened to be in that direction.
It's also because it's too noisy and there are too many people here. He actually only noticed Xie Ziyue's arrival now.
"Why is my beloved concubine here?" Han Xianzong asked Laifu to move a stool for Xie Ziyue and motioned for Xie Ziyue to sit down. Then he looked at Concubine Rou and asked:
"Concubine Rou, is this true?"
Concubine Rou has kept a low profile since entering the palace. This is the first time she has spoken in front of so many people, but her attitude is very natural and she has no stage fright at all. Fu Shen said:
"Your Majesty, it's true. Concubine Rou was feeling unwell, so I helped her to rest. Yu'er also saw it at that time. Concubine helped Concubine Rou in and then left."
Although Yu'er was in pain, her consciousness was still very clear. She nodded when she heard this, indicating that what Rou Fei said was true.
"Then how did this man get in?" Since he came back to rest after feeling unwell, and was helped back to rest by Concubine Rou... this man shouldn't have been let in by Concubine Rou.
What Han Xianzong wants to do most now is to catch the murderer who framed his concubine. Such a scheming woman cannot be allowed to stay in the palace.
Sooner or later it will be a serious problem.
"Why don't we search for something on this man?" The concubines nearby suggested: "Not everyone can enter the summer resort. There should be something on this man as a token."
As soon as the news of the coming royal carriage reached the summer resort, the entire resort was on alert.
This man might have lurked in in advance. If not, it was because he had a token in his hand that made the guard guarding the door think his identity allowed him to enter, so he let him in.
The possibility of lurking in advance is very low. After all, it was Han Xianzong's impromptu decision to come to the Summer Resort to spend the summer. It was impossible for anyone to guess his thoughts in advance, so it was only possible that it was the latter.
So he nodded to this suggestion: "Then search."
As soon as these words came out, the guards guarding the side stepped forward and pushed the man to the ground, searching for him.
The man struggled endlessly, desperately trying not to let the guards touch him, and said: "Ms. Roubi, I have a friendship with you, how can you forget it? It was you who let me in!"
"Shut up!" Concubine Rou didn't expect him to say this in public, her face turned red, and she was filled with shame and anger: "If you continue to talk nonsense, I will have your tongue pulled out! Cover his mouth!"
"Pa-ta-" As soon as the concubine finished her words, something suddenly fell out of the struggling man's arms.
The thing fell from his arms and spun around on the ground several times. It seemed to be a token.
When the guard who was ordered to search the man saw this, he hurriedly picked up the token from the ground, walked respectfully to Han Xianzong, knelt down, and presented the token with both hands.
