Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt
Chapter 115 Deprivation of Title
The queen looked at Su Xuqing with a sad gaze. She had seen her in the palace before and just thought she had a good appearance. Now it seems that she has good character and popularity as well. Otherwise, how could so many people speak up for her?
In fact, the queen has already made up her mind about what is right and wrong at this moment, but with so many people watching, she can't act on her feelings.
"Since both of you insist on your own opinions, then find a way to prove your innocence. Otherwise, I will have to give in to one of you and hold you both accountable."
As soon as these words came out, Duke Su became anxious and looked at Su Xuqing and shouted, "Su Xuqing! Why don't you confess your crime quickly? If you implicate us, how can we be worthy of the kindness we have given you over the years?"
Su Xuqing felt like she had heard a joke. Duke Su had the nerve to mention his bullshit kindness in raising her. She was not even as good as a maid in the mansion.
"My Lady, I have a way to prove my innocence."
Su Xuqing was confident and looked at the queen.
The queen nodded slightly, "Tell me about it."
Su Xuqing first pointed at the meteorite that Shen Xuanheng had given to the Queen, and said calmly, "My husband, how much is the birthday gift you gave to the Queen worth?"
Shen Xuanheng looked strange, and said with a dry cough: "One hundred thousand taels."
Su Xuqing was shocked and wondered where he got so much money.
But now is obviously the time to worry about these details. Su Xuqing looked at everyone and said slowly: "My husband can take out so much silver to celebrate the Queen's birthday, which is enough to show that we are not short of money. Although this broken phoenix feather is gold, it is less than two taels. Even if it is sold, it is far less than a drop in the bucket of this birthday gift. Why should I take the risk and risk offending the Queen to do such a thing? If you really need money, why not ask my husband?"
When this was said, everyone felt that it made sense. If one was really short of money, why prepare such an expensive gift? Just buying something like a jade ruyi could save eighty or ninety thousand taels of silver.
Zhao's eyes were wandering, and she felt something was wrong, so she quickly said, "Who knows if you were blinded by greed and then acted on impulse?"
Su Xuqing sneered and said calmly: "If I suddenly want to take this Phoenix Feather away, there are plenty of ways to do it."
As he spoke, Su Xuqing looked around and then his gaze fell on Sun Youwei's earlobe.
"Miss Sun, are your earrings valuable? Can you lend them to me?"
Sun Youwei smiled when she heard that, and took off the earrings and placed them in Su Xuqing's palm, "It's just a worthless little piece of jewelry, Sister Su, just take it and use it."
"Thank you, Miss Sun."
Su Xuqing showed the earrings to everyone, and then said, "Everyone, look carefully, this is an earring made of gold. If I want to search myself without being discovered, I will do this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xuqing threw the earrings into the wine glass, then took out a bottle of potion from his sleeve and dropped a drop into the wine glass. Within a few breaths, the gold earrings turned into golden water.
Su Xuqing picked up the wine jug and poured wine into it, then splashed it on the ground. The golden wine seeped into the cracks in the ground, leaving only some gold powder floating on the surface. Su Xuqing then stepped on it, and the gold powder got on the soles of her shoes. Unless one lay on the ground and looked, it would be difficult to find any traces of the gold powder.
This stroke of genius stunned everyone, even the queen was a little surprised.
Su Xuqing looked at the Queen and smiled, "My Queen, so I can't be the one who broke the Phoenix feather. Even if I did break it, I won't let you find the evidence, don't you think so?"
The Queen said nothing and turned her gaze to Duke Su's family.
Duke Su was startled and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy: "Queen, please calm down. It was my wife who was blinded by greed and broke the Phoenix feather. It has nothing to do with me!"
Su Min'er also quickly distanced herself from the matter, "My Queen, I don't know anything about it either."
"you……"
Zhao was suddenly isolated. Just as she was about to say something, she saw the contemptuous looks from everyone and suddenly felt ashamed.
"Please spare my life, Queen! I know I was wrong!"
"Are you aware of your mistake?"
The Queen sneered, "You were really tough just now. You guys in the Duke's Mansion are really brave! You really gave me a birthday gift that I will never forget!"
Duke Su was sweating profusely and opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to defend himself, so he could only continue to beg for mercy.
"Come here, drive these three people out of Fengluan Palace. Later, I will ask the emperor to revoke the title of the Duke's Mansion and confiscate the mansion! This is the result of angering me!"
Duke Su felt as if he was struck by lightning, as if all his bones had been pulled out, and he collapsed to the ground.
Zhao was also completely dumbfounded. She never expected that the Queen would be so cruel as to uproot the Duke's Mansion.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us."
"Get out! I don't want to see you anymore, and I don't want to hear your voice anymore. I feel sick!"
The queen was obviously very angry, and acid was rising in her stomach.
The imperial guards rushed into the palace and escorted Duke Su and his family of three out. The queen held the phoenix feather in her hand with an unsightly look on her face.
"Yuheng, find a skilled craftsman tomorrow and make sure to restore the phoenix to its original state."
"Don't worry, mother. I understand."
Xiao Yuheng responded, then looked at everyone, "My Lords, since the instigator has been found, let's continue to enjoy the birthday banquet, and don't let what just happened disturb our mood."
"Yes, yes, everyone, come and take a seat."
"You are a clown, you really shouldn't ruin the Queen's mood."
As soon as Xiao Yuheng opened his mouth, officials immediately came to liven up the atmosphere. The third prince held his wine glass and remembered all those who agreed with the eldest prince.
The queen sighed, obviously still unable to let it go. She turned around and wanted to go back to the palace, but after taking a few steps, she suddenly felt dizzy, her body swayed a few times and she almost fell.
Xiao Yuheng was horrified and quickly supported her, "Mother, are you okay?"
Seeing this, Su Xuqing and Shen Xuanheng went up and supported the other half of the queen's body.
"My Queen, are you okay?"
Su Xuqing held the queen's arm and smelled a strange and subtle fragrance. The smell went straight into her forehead through her nose. It felt a little strange at first, but soon made her feel as if she was floating in the air.
The queen held her forehead and said weakly, "I feel a little dizzy."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuheng hurriedly said, "Quickly call the imperial physician!"
Su Xuqing originally wanted to take the Queen's pulse, but she withdrew her hand after hearing what Xiao Yuheng said. After all, the imperial physicians in the palace must have practiced medicine for many years and had extraordinary medical skills, and it would be inappropriate for her to show off her quickly acquired medical skills.
The young eunuch outside Fengluan Palace quickly invited the old physician from the Imperial Hospital over. At this moment, the Queen had been helped by the eldest prince to sit in Su Xuqing's seat to rest.
