The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

However, Rong Lan's blind protection of Rong Fenghua was indeed something Shen Qingyan had not expected, so it would be more appropriate for Gu Beihuai to handle this matter personally.

And the efficiency will be even higher.

So Shen Qingyan waited in Zhaohua Palace with peace of mind. After the birthday banquet, she was taken back to Zhaohua Palace by Gu Beihuai. Fortunately, the safety in the palace was more guaranteed and it was more suitable for pregnancy.

Prince Yu's Palace.

Rong Fenghua was feeling nervous, but on the surface she looked frightened, which made people feel sorry for her.

Rong Lan has always protected her closely and was on guard against Gu Ruxiao with hostility in his eyes.

Gu Ruxiao wanted to roll her eyes directly at him. It was really ridiculous. Was she a tigress? Could she eat his little white rabbit sister?

I originally thought he was handsome and pleasing to the eye, but now I feel like I must have been blind at the time.

Soon, a loud voice was heard outside the door.

"The Emperor has arrived~"

The announcement of the song instantly dispelled the originally anxious and restless hearts of the noble ladies into a state of excitement.

I didn’t expect that the emperor would come in person!

Does that mean they have another chance?

However, the facts proved that no matter how many times Gu Beihuai came, he would not even look at them.

He automatically ignored everyone's greetings, even Gu Ruxiao, and went straight to the room where "Shen Qingyan" was.

Although he didn't utter a word, the coldness and murderous aura around him made everyone present feel a chill down their spines.

Rong Fenghua's heart trembled uncontrollably, and he had a bad feeling.

Not long after, Gu Beihuai came out of the room, his expression seemed even gloomier than before.

What people outside didn't know was that Zhiyu was still kneeling on the ground inside and it took him a long time to dare to stand up.

The moment Gu Beihuai came in, she knelt down and honestly confessed her identity.

After knowing that this was a trap set by Shen Qingyan, Gu Beihuai felt angry and scared.

So he decided that after solving this matter, he would go back and "punish" Shen Qingyan!

As soon as Gu Beihuai walked out, Rong Lan took the lead and knelt respectfully in front of Gu Beihuai.

"Your humble servant Rong Lan, I dare to ask the emperor to look into this matter. My sister has been gentle and sensible since she was a child. It is impossible for her to do such a vicious act to harm others. Someone must have deliberately murdered her."

After saying this, he glanced at Gu Ruxiao casually.

That look seemed to say, even if you are a princess, so what? Justice is in the hands of the emperor, and he will make you pay the price.

Gu Ruxiao was so angry that he didn't want to be left behind, so he immediately said to Gu Beihuai.

"Royal brother, don't listen to the nonsense of this sister-protecting maniac. Rong Fenghua first murdered the royal aunt, and now she is deliberately harming the royal sister-in-law. She still refuses to admit it..."

"Enough!" Gu Beihuai shouted coldly, and both of them shut up.

Gu Ruxiao turned his head and happened to meet Rong Lan's eyes.

The two looked away and saw anger in each other's eyes.

Before coming, Gu Beihuai had asked someone to invite Pei Zheng, the Minister of Dali Temple, over, and he was now on standby.

"I will not take sides in this matter and will speak with facts and evidence."

Pei Zheng received the eye signal and immediately stepped forward and asked the minor official and the female doctor from the Dali Temple to come forward and examine Zhenzhu carefully.

"Your Majesty, there are indeed traces of musk and safflower on it, and there are signs that it has been soaked in water."

Rong Fenghua's eyes darkened and she was about to open her mouth to argue in a wronged manner, but Rong Lan spoke first.

"Your Majesty, it is very likely that someone deliberately set up this trap to frame Fenghua..."

Before he finished speaking, Ji Feng beside Gu Beihuai said coldly.

"Master Rong, Master Pei is investigating a case, so you'd better not get involved, to avoid being suspected of covering up for him."

Rong Lan's expression froze and he could only remain silent.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he met Gu Ruxiao's gaze again.

Gu Ruxiao sneered and looked at him with mockery in his eyes.

Just cover it up for him, and you'll be obedient when you end up shooting yourself in the foot.

Without any interference, Pei Zheng continued to investigate the case.

"Miss Rong, could you please let me check your nails?"

Rong Fenghua's face seemed even paler than before, and his fingers subconsciously retracted into his sleeves.

"me……"

Rong Lan stepped forward and said in a gentle voice: "Fenghua, don't be afraid. As long as you have never done this, you don't have to worry about them investigating."

Gu Ruxiao crossed her arms and said quietly, "Yes, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. Since Miss Rong insists that she didn't do it, what is she feeling guilty about?"

"Cough cough."

Ji Feng coughed lightly, reminding them not to talk.

As soon as Gu Ruxiao raised her eyes, she met the cold gaze of Gu Beihuai who was sitting at the top, so she had to shut up awkwardly.

Rong Fenghua bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, and stretched out her hand.

All the noble ladies looked up, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

Gu Ruxiao's eyes gradually revealed her determination to win. Rong Fenghua, just wait for your image as the number one talented woman to collapse!

But the results of the female doctor's examination were shocking.

There was nothing unusual in Rong Fenghua's nails.

Gu Ruxiao was anxious. This wasn’t right. Did Rong Fenghua take the time to wash his hands?

I always feel like something is missing.

Oh, right, Rong Fenghua’s maid!

There was no one behind Rong Fenghua, and the maid named Lvliu was missing.

Gu Ruxiao immediately shouted, "Rong Fenghua, where is your maid? Did she go to help you destroy the evidence?"

Before Rong Fenghua could say anything, Lvliu came hurriedly.

"Princess, please forgive me. I just went to the bathroom..."

Gu Ruxiao thought to herself that something was wrong, "Have you washed your hands?"

Green Willow nodded, "The clean room is dirty, so of course you have to wash your hands."

This is the rule, otherwise how can you serve your master?

Gu Ruxiao was so angry that he gritted his teeth, "Rong Fenghua, you did it on purpose!"

Rong Fenghua's eyes were filled with innocence, and she said in a low voice: "Fenghua doesn't understand what the princess is talking about..."

Gu Ruxiao was very angry. Without solid evidence and unable to prove that Pearl was Rong Fenghua's, how could he fulfill the Emperor's sister-in-law's plan?

Rong Fenghua lowered her eyes in fear, but at an angle where no one could see, she slightly curled her lips.

Gu Ruxiao, you are so stupid, and you still want to fight me? You can only admit defeat.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a reversal occurred.

A young eunuch hurried over to report.

"Your Majesty, a person who claims to be a maid from the Rong Mansion, with a limp on one leg, comes here to testify for Miss Rong."

Limping on one leg? Red orange?

Rong Fenghua was immediately relieved. She was worthy of being her maid. Even though she was seriously injured, she still came to testify for her. She would not punish her for the forehead injury due to dereliction of duty when she returned.

Gu Beihuai said in a deep voice: "Let her in."

Soon, Hongju's figure appeared in front of everyone, leaning on a wooden crutch.

"Your servant Hongju pays respect to His Majesty, Princess..."

Gu Beihuai raised his hand to exempt her from the greeting, "Speak."

Gu Ruxiao pouted angrily. She thought it was another scene where a maid took the blame for her master, but unexpectedly, what Hongju said next shocked everyone.
