When I opened my eyes, Zhen Huan knelt in front of me and had a miscarriage

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, but her voice was shaking: "Your Majesty, I... I gave you the medicine out of kindness, but I didn't know it would lead to such a disaster. I am willing to take the blame, but please understand, Your Majesty, I have no intention of harming Nan Changzai."

Nian Shilan sneered and pressed on: "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. It is also a mistake to do good things with bad intentions. Moreover, if this recipe for fertility is really from the Queen's hand, doesn't Your Majesty have the responsibility to find out the properties of the medicine and ensure that it is foolproof? Now that Nan Changzai has been severely injured, how can Your Majesty just downplay it and say 'I don't know' and let it go?"

Yinzhen closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, there was boundless anger in his eyes.

"I remember you, you know a lot about pharmacology, how could you not know?"

Yinzhen was furious and his voice got louder again. He looked at Yixiu with eyes full of disappointment and anger.

"Empress, as the head of the six palaces, you should act with caution. Now you have repeatedly caused trouble that harms my offspring. How can I trust you again?"

Yixiu knelt on the ground, her body trembling slightly. She knew that she could no longer argue and could only silently endure Yinzhen's anger and punishment.

Nian Shilan just watched her coldly from the side, looking at her coldly, as if it was just yesterday, when she just watched herself fail and die in the same way.

Even though she knew that no matter what the outcome today was, the Queen's failure was inevitable, she still did not dare to take it lightly.

Zhen Huan also pursed her lips, not daring to speak, waiting for Yi Xiu's next move.

For a moment, the only sounds in the hall were the sobbing of Nanxu's maid and Yixiu's gasping for breath.

Sure enough, Yixiu was not defeated so quickly.

"No matter how Your Majesty thinks of me, I am willing to accept the punishment, but..." Yixiu pointed at Nian Shilan angrily, her eyes full of hatred, "The imperial physician clearly said that Nan Changzai became like this now because she used the fertility prescription and the beauty prescription, and the two combined into one conflicted with each other. Why do these two prescriptions conflict with each other? Why did the imperial concubine give Concubine Wan the beauty prescription after I gave Nan Changzai the fertility prescription? Your Majesty, the reason is terrifying if you think about it carefully!"

The hatred that burst out of her eyes was so intense that she almost killed Nian Shilan.

Her response was indeed quick.

Unfortunately, all this was within Nian Shilan's expectations.

"Your Majesty, the beauty recipe did not come out of nowhere, but..."

Nian Shilan was halfway through her speech when she acted as if she was in a dilemma and didn't dare to say any more.

Yinzhen was suspicious, "But what?"

At this time, Zhen Huan knelt down on the other side and cried bitterly.

"Your Majesty, this is all my fault. I saw that Nan Changzai was young and beautiful, and she looked a bit like me. How could I not think of the days when I was with Your Majesty when Nan Changzai was so favored? I was ignorant before and deliberately angered Your Majesty, but these days have been torture for me. I miss Your Majesty so much. That's why I asked the Imperial Concubine to teach me the method to maintain my beauty."

After Zhen Huan said this in such a tender voice, the anger on Yinzhen's face dissipated a little.

Nian Shilan watched coldly and found it ridiculous. Nan Changzai was nothing to him.

As long as there is a new woman, what does the old people and old things matter?

But Yixiu refused to give in and asked her to believe that all this was just a coincidence?

She absolutely doesn't believe it!

"Concubine Wan! Why did you ask for the beauty formula when I gave Nan Changzai the formula for having a child? Why is it such a coincidence? Your Sui Yu Xuan has always been strict, how could a palace maid easily steal the formula? Who knows if you did it on purpose!"

Yixiu's words were like fallen leaves in the wind. Although they struggled hard, they could not escape the fate of falling to the ground.

Yinzhen's face became increasingly gloomy, and the eyes that had once been full of tenderness towards her now only showed coldness and determination.

He stood up slowly, and every step he took was like a heavy hammer hitting Yixiu's heart.

"Empress, you keep saying it's a coincidence, but every word you say reveals your suspicion of others. I think I've treated you well, and all the affairs of the six palaces are in your hands, but you've let me down again and again. If the matter of Nan Changzai is really as complicated as you said, why didn't you find out the truth at the first time, but instead shirk responsibility here?"

Yinzhen's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, with unquestionable majesty.

Yixiu looked up, trying to catch a glimpse of the warmth from Yinzhen's eyes, but she only saw endless indifference and disappointment. She felt cold in her heart, knowing that she was powerless to change the situation, but she was still unwilling to admit defeat.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent! Although I am the mistress of the six palaces, the affairs of the harem are complicated and I am sometimes overwhelmed. I only hope that Your Majesty can see clearly and clear my name."

Yixiu's voice was almost pleading, but to Yinzhen, her sophistry sounded like a futile struggle.

"That's enough! You don't have to say any more! I have made my own decision."

Yinzhen smiled coldly, looking away, no longer looking at Yixiu, his face full of indifference, "Empress Yixiu, you have cruelly abused concubines, plotted to murder the heir, behaved improperly, and are unworthy of your position. From today on, you will be imprisoned in Jingren Palace. Without my order, you are not allowed to take a single step out forever."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a dead silence in the hall.

Yixiu's face turned pale as paper in an instant. Her lips trembled and she wanted to say something, but in the end she just lowered her head weakly and accepted this cruel reality.

Hearing this, Zhen Huan couldn't help but look up at the powerful man. Her eyes stayed on his face for a few seconds and then moved to Nian Shilan.

A complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Although she won the fight, Zhen Huan couldn't help feeling a little sad.

In the harem, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.

She won today, but what about tomorrow?

But the price of victory is often heavy.

Yinzhen turned around and was about to leave, but stopped before stepping out of the hall.

Yixiu, you were my queen. You did many bad things in the past, but I forgave you. I just wanted to leave a last bit of bottom line for both of us. But I never thought that what happened today would happen. "

"Just take care of yourself."

With Yinzhen's departure, the lights in the hall seemed to dim a little.

Yixiu knelt there, motionless, like a stone statue forgotten by time.

Her heart was filled with regret and unwillingness, as well as endless despair and confusion about the future.

Nian Shilan stood up, and just as she passed Yixiu, she slowly squatted down, and gently lifted Yixiu's confused and pale face with her two slender fingers.

She chuckled and raised her lips, "Queen, this is the last time I will call you this. It feels good to be a loser, right?"

Jianqiu was extremely sad at this time and thought that Nian Shilan was going to attack the Queen.

He immediately rushed forward and said, "How dare you! What do you want to do to the Queen?"
