The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

The Ninth Prince's words almost put the Fourth Prince on the fire!

Sure enough! Upon hearing this, Emperor Jingren's face turned ugly, and he looked at the Fourth Prince with fear in his eyes.

Seeing this, the Queen beside her could not help but sigh and spoke for the Fourth Prince:

"Hey, the Fourth Prince has always been kind and filial, and has practiced Buddhism for his mother for ten years. How could he suddenly become so cruel? Is there some misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstand?"

Although the Queen seemed to be speaking for the Fourth Prince, her words actually reminded Emperor Jingren.

How can a person change suddenly?

I'm afraid they have been plotting this in secret all along!

How can such a scheming person appear so kind and filial?

Emperor Jingren immediately slammed the table in anger, stood up, looked at the Fourth Prince and said coldly:

"It was indeed a misunderstanding! I didn't even know it! I actually had such an ambitious and scheming person by my side!"

The Minister of Justice at the side also stepped forward at the right time and said with a troubled look on his face:

"Your Majesty, I just found traces of beauty's tears on the broken pieces of the teacup. The imperial physician said that if you get this kind of beauty's tears on you, it will take time for it to disappear!"

"If the Fourth Prince is truly wronged, then we can just ask the imperial physician to verify whether he also has the scent of Beauty's Tears on his body, and then we will know for sure!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Fourth Prince's expression changed drastically.

Beauty's tears?

What is that?

For some reason, the Fourth Prince's heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously looked at Shen Qinglan who was sitting motionless in his seat!

When Shen Qinglan saw the Fourth Prince's gaze sweeping over him, she blinked at him with a hint of an evil smile in her eyes.

The Fourth Prince! He must be the man behind the scenes!

The beauty's tears on the teacup were given to Jiang Ningshuang by Shen Qinglan in advance!

She calculated that if the person behind the scenes failed to kill Jiang Ningshuang backstage, he would definitely attack again on stage!

And if the other party wants to take action, no matter what he uses, he will definitely make the flying Jiang Ningshuang fall!

No matter what he used to make Jiang Ningshuang fall, Shen Qinglan would make it look like Jiang Ningshuang fell because the teacup fragments scratched the shawl!

Jiang Ningshuang will take the opportunity to wipe the beauty's tears on the teacup, and then the first step will be completed!

Then, Shen Qinglan asked Huo Jingyi, where no one would notice her, to secretly sprinkle the beauty's tears on the corner of the Fourth Prince's clothes.

This was not only to prove that the Fourth Prince was the one who harmed Jiang Ningshuang, but also to verify...

Because the beauty's tears, in addition to the ingredients that can cause wounds to fester, also contain a certain amount of aphrodisiacs.

If the Fourth Prince was not a eunuch, he would definitely show clues after smelling this aphrodisiac at close range!

But obviously, the Fourth Prince didn't seem to be moved at all at this moment!

With all these things happening, the Fourth Prince, who wanted to hide behind the scenes, might no longer be able to hide behind others safely.

Now that the three parties have attacked at the same time, can the Fourth Prince still remain safe this time?

Hundreds of lives at Xiangshan Temple!

The safety of millions of soldiers in the Battle of Lihe!

They are nothing but pawns played by the Fourth Prince!

But Shen Qinglan wanted to let him see who was the chess player!

In order to confirm, Emperor Jingren directly asked Gu Changqing to investigate!

Gu Changqing did not hesitate and indeed found traces of beauty's tears on the Fourth Prince's body.

However, the scent of beauty's tears mostly appeared on the hem of her clothes, which was a bit like... someone had poured them there on purpose.

The most important thing is that the aphrodisiac element in the beauty's tears seems to be more, which is really weird...

Gu Changqing's eyes moved slightly. In this world, the only person who could slightly change the beauty's tears was probably...

When Gu Changqing turned around, he subconsciously glanced at Shen Qinglan. Seeing Shen Qinglan smiling at him, he immediately understood something and felt a little angry!

He thought it was just a matter between the princes, but he didn't expect that this girl was also involved!

And judging from the amount, this girl probably took the lion's share!

Gu Changqing was a little angry at Shen Qinglan's boldness, but it was impossible for him to give Shen Qinglan away at this time.

He immediately spoke to Emperor Jingren and said, "Your Majesty, there are traces of beauty's tears on the Fourth Prince's body."

Anyway, he didn't lie, it's just a detail... no one should care.

The Fourth Prince's wife was so frightened that her face turned pale. She quickly followed him out and knelt beside the Fourth Prince. She said to Emperor Jingren in a trembling and crying voice:

"Father, please be wise! Zhixing has always been devoted to Buddhism and would never do such a thing that would harm someone's life! Please forgive Zhixing!"

When the Fourth Prince heard the Fourth Prince's Consort's words, he seemed very moved. He held the Fourth Prince's Consort's hand, then looked at Emperor Jingren and said:

"Father, I know that I am upright in my conduct and I sit upright. I have absolutely no intention of harming anyone!"

"This teacup was accidentally broken by a palace maid when she was pouring tea for me! I felt sorry for her because she was just a palace maid, so I didn't punish her. I just asked her to get a new one."

"But I didn't expect that after the dancer fell down, the scene was in chaos, and when I looked back, the broken teacup was still on my desk!"

When the Fourth Prince said this, he raised his head and looked at Emperor Jingren, and said seriously and sincerely:

"Your son has been practicing in the Jokhang Temple for ten years. If I didn't want to come back to be filial to my father, I would rather be with the ancient Buddha with a green lamp!"

"The Buddha said that all things are empty, only cause and effect are not empty, good and evil exist in the heart. How could a son easily commit such a sin of killing?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jingren frowned slightly, as if he was somewhat persuaded by the Fourth Prince. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Since you said that a palace maid framed me, where is this palace maid? Can you identify her?"

The fourth prince thought for a moment before speaking: "I don't remember what that person looked like, but she had a black mole at the corner of her mouth."

"The mole at the corner of your mouth? Find it! Find it and confront me face to face!"

Emperor Jingren gave the order immediately, and soon someone came forward, holding a palace maid!

After the palace maid was brought in, everyone saw a black mole at the corner of her mouth.

"You bold servant! Tell the truth, why did you harm the dancer?"

The queen opened her mouth and shouted at the palace maid.

At first, the palace maid refused to say anything and just kept saying that she was wronged.

But under interrogation, she could only cry and say: "I was jealous that the dancer could be presented to Your Majesty and serve Your Majesty. I was jealous for a moment, so I just…"

The fourth prince listened at the side and couldn't help but sighed and said, "Then why did you frame me?"

The palace maid raised her head and glanced at the Fourth Prince, then subconsciously and nervously looked at the Ninth Prince, as if she was afraid of something. She immediately shook her head, gritted her teeth, and said:

"I was bewitched for a moment! I am willing to die to atone for my sins!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the palace maid pulled out the hairpin on her head and stabbed it into her neck!

Suddenly, blood splattered.

The palace maid's body fell limply to the ground, her eyes wide open, and she died without a sound.

The palace maid's words did clear the Fourth Prince of suspicion, but the look she gave the Ninth Prince before her death was so puzzling that one could not help but suspect that the Ninth Prince was also involved in this matter.

The Ninth Prince glared at the Fourth Prince with gritted teeth, his eyes narrowed and his expression cold.

The Eighth Prince also glanced at the Fourth Prince and the Ninth Prince. There was no way to escape from these two!

But I didn’t expect that this dog, which never barks, would bite people!
