Outside the study room.
"My daughter Xia Tan'er asks to see the emperor."
"Enter."
Xia Tan'er walked slowly and leisurely across the threshold. As soon as she entered the door, she saw a mess in front of her.
The head of the Xue family and Master Shangshu looked at Dong Lingyan and Concubine De who were kneeling on the ground with tears and resentment. The hatred in their lives must have burst out at this moment.
However, Dong Lingyan and De Fei sat on the ground with disheveled hair and dejected faces, looking helplessly at the emperor with tears in their eyes. At this moment, all their pride in their lives was trampled to the ground, and they could no longer rise.
As for the emperor, he leaned on the back of his chair and held his sore forehead.
Looking at this scene, Xia Tan'er already understood the situation at this moment. She turned around and glanced at the head of the Xue family, then bowed respectfully to the emperor.
"My daughter Xia Tan'er has met the emperor. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."
"Flat body."
Seeing Xia Tan'er coming, the emperor sat up straight.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I don't know why Your Majesty is so anxious to call your servants here, but is there any further information about the Spring Banquet?"
The only connection between her and the emperor now was the Spring Banquet. Xia Tan'er raised this matter directly to show how seriously she attached importance to it in front of the emperor.
After hearing this, the emperor took a deep breath and glared at Concubine De and Dong Lingyan fiercely.
He suddenly slumped and leaned back on the chair behind him.
"Concubine De will give you an explanation for this matter."
"oh?"
Since the emperor has said so, Xia Tan'er will of course start firing on all cylinders.
"Empress De Fei, the emperor asked me to ask you, so do you know the truth about my daughter being drugged at the Spring Banquet?"
It was obviously just a question, but the words coming out of that small mouth were so terrifying that Concubine De tightened up. At this moment, she realized that she had lived for so long and yet she was not as majestic as a little girl.
At this point, if she doesn't confess anymore, she is afraid that her mother clan and Donglingluo will also be implicated by her.
“Ms. "
"I didn't expect that the emperor would go to the wrong room. As for the man you had sex with that day, I really don't know who he is. There's only so much I can say."
When Xia Tan'er heard what Concubine De said, she felt more and more that something was wrong.
If Concubine De really doesn't know who that man is... then who sent that man?
"Empress De Fei, is this all you can do?"
"Yes, that's all."
"Then what should I say about my mother being poisoned?"
"The matter of Mrs. Lu's poisoning has nothing to do with me. I never ordered the poisoning of Mrs. Lu."
Xia Tan'er met De Concubine's eyes, and bent down to touch her pulse. When De Concubine answered, there was no wave in her pulse, and her eyes were looking straight at her, which showed that what De Concubine said was not a lie.
Could it be said that there was someone else who poisoned and sent the man here?
This person is using Concubine De's hand to attack the Lu family!
Thinking of this, murderous intent suddenly appeared in Xia Tan'er's eyes. For just a moment, Dong Lingyan and De Fei's bodies went limp and their backs felt cold, as if they were about to die.
"Your Majesty, this concubine also made this move for the sake of the emperor. I hope the emperor can spare the lives of my concubine and the princess because of my hard work for so many years. I beg the emperor to spare my life."
