The little doctor's trembling voice finalized the matter.

Not only was there no trace of sugar found in Xing Su's residence, but the Queen Mother and two imperial doctors confirmed that they did not notice that the decoction contained sugar.

This made everyone suspect that there was something wrong with Ji Wanrong's words.

The emperor's eagle-like eyes scrutinized Ji Wanrong, and then walked to Ji Wanrong's side step by step, releasing all the pressure from his body.

"Princess Han, now that the matter is over, do you have anything else to argue?"

Ji Wanrong thought this thing was strange. There must be something else that she hadn't thought of.

But if she misses this opportunity, Xing Su will get rid of the evidence, and she will always bear the infamy of the disaster star, and she will never be able to turn over.

Before Ji Wanrong could speak, Concubine Hua spoke with a happy face.

"Haha, Princess Han is running out of words, right? She just asked me to apologize to her and admit her mistake... Your Majesty, I feel that her actions not only hurt the Queen Mother and Xing Su, but also hurt me."

"I want your majesty to kowtow and apologize to me in front of everyone before dealing with Princess Han. She is a born evil star. What I just stopped was not wrong."

The emperor looked at Ji Wanrong with deep eyes, but saw Mo Jiecheng suddenly stood up, turned to the emperor, and knelt down without hesitation.

"Father, there must be something fishy about this matter. If Ji Wanrong is just trying to gain favor in front of the Queen Mother, why would she fabricate something that doesn't exist instead of claiming that she accidentally knocked over the bowl?"

"My dear sir, I think there's one thing I haven't checked yet, and that's the dregs of the decoction."

Ji Wanrong opened her chin slightly and stared at Mo Jiecheng's back. At this moment, she couldn't see Mo Jiecheng's expression.

As soon as Mo Jiecheng said these words, the people present were even more surprised than Ji Wanrong.

Ji Yunyao looked at Mo Jiecheng's face in disbelief, while Xing Su's eyes instantly turned red, and tears flashed again.

Mo Jiecheng knelt down abruptly, making such a big movement that the emperor was a little surprised.

Mo Jiecheng originally didn't like this princess. If he hadn't said a word just now and stayed out of the matter, he might have made some quibbles. Ji Wanrong's crime will not implicate him yet.

But now that he is out like this, Ji Wanrong's crime will definitely be implicated on him, and even his position as prince will be difficult to preserve.

The emperor slowly lowered his head and looked at Mo Jiecheng with a heavy gaze for a long time before finally speaking: "Okay, then according to King Han's words, take the medicine jar and the medicine residue inside intact."

"It's getting late, and this farce should end."

After the emperor said this, he looked at Ji Wanrong again.

But Xing Su was still the same as before, without any movement.

She looked at Mo Jiecheng blankly, her whole body was a little weak, she even forgot to tremble, and big beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.

Ji Wanrong clearly caught this action and narrowed his eyes slightly.

In fact, what Mo Jiecheng said was right. Everything had been checked, and the only thing that was strange was the dregs of the decoction.

After the young eunuch hurriedly brought the medicine jar from the kitchen, the emperor asked the unknown young eunuch from just now to examine it.

"If you tell a lie, I will let your whole family be buried with you."

The young doctor trembled all over, stepped forward tremblingly, opened the lid of the medicine jar, took out the medicine residue inside and examined it carefully.

As soon as the lid was opened, everyone smelled a strong smell of medicine, but Ji Wanrong smelled the sweet taste just now in the strong smell of medicine.

The sweetness was much stronger than that from the bowl of soup just now.

Ji Wanrong's eyes lit up and she stared directly at the medicine jar in the imperial doctor's hand, as if she was thinking about something and wanted to poke a hole in the medicine jar.

The young imperial doctor was still diligently sorting out the medicine residue in the jar.

The Queen Mother yawned and was very tired: "The Aijia trusts Xing Su. Xing Su has been serving the Aijia for a long time, and there is no way he would do such a thing."

"Since Princess Han also saved the Ai family, she will ignore this matter and the Ai family will not blame her!"

As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, the imperial doctor also came out with the results: "Your Majesty, this medicinal dregs was completely prepared according to Imperial Physician Sun. There is no problem in it, and the minister did not find any crystal foam belonging to white sugar in it."

"Now the dust has finally fallen to the ground, and I and Xingsu are now clear. It is really disrespectful to let the Queen Mother drag her sick body and listen to this farce!"

"Since the Queen Mother does not want to be blamed, why not let Princess Han kowtow and apologize to the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, the concubine and Xing Su. This matter can be considered in the past and is harmless. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Concubine Hua glanced at the queen very proudly. If Ji Wanrong kowtows like this, it will represent the queen's face. In the future, King Han will always be inferior in front of King Duan, and the queen will always be inferior to her.

The emperor's endurance reached its limit at this moment. What he disliked most was the intrigue in the palace, so he gave Ji Wanrong a cold look.

The tone was very impatient: "It's late at night, let's do what Concubine Hua said. Since Princess Han has done a good job in curing the Queen Mother, and regardless of the crime of deceiving the emperor, I will be banned from Prince Han's palace with Prince Han for three months!"

Xing Su let out a long sigh and fell to the ground in relief.

When he thought that he would be slapped by the so-called Princess Han, and that he would trample Princess Han under her feet forever, he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Xing Su couldn't help but cast his adoring gaze on Mo Jiecheng's straight back.

The queen's expression changed, and she was about to kneel down to plead for mercy, when she saw Ji Wanrong's calm voice sounded again.

"Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law has discovered the problem. It was not the soup and medicine that harmed the Queen Mother, but the medicine jar!"

"The lid of the medicine jar has been soaked in sugar water for a long time. When the soup is boiled, the hot steam touches the lid, so the soup has a slight sweetness."

"And the Queen Mother likes sweets, and the sweetness is the reason why Xing Su has a firm foothold by the Queen Mother!"

As Ji Wanrong spoke, the young imperial doctor followed Ji Wanrong's instructions and smelled the lid of the medicine jar carefully, then stretched out his tongue and took a sip.

Feeling the sweet taste on the tip of his tongue, his voice suddenly became louder: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Right here, this medicine jar has a hint of sweetness!!"

Concubine Hua's proud expression instantly froze to the ground, and Xing Su's whole body stiffened.
