"I watched Concubine Yi bring Chu Yan by her side all day and was very fond of her, and she thought that Chu Yan had the new master."

Jin Yanrong's expression became dark when he heard the queen's words. After a while, he raised his hand and said, "Come on, bring Chu Yan up."

Hai Qing responded to the order and took Chu Yan up in a short while. He knelt in front of the hall. Chu Yan lowered his head and saluted respectfully.

Jin Yanrong pointed to the pendant on the ground and asked, "Chu Yan, I ask you, is this thing yours?"

Chu Yan lay down and looked forward carefully, nodded and said, "This thing was given to the slave by Concubine Yi, but... it is not a slave."

"What is the explanation for this?" Jin Yanrong frowned and asked.

"Half a month ago, the slave gave this thing to Xiao Xiazi. Because Concubine Yi said that Xiao Xiazi went to invite the Moon Palace to serve him well, Xiao Xiazi was sent by him personally by the slave, so he thought about giving him some good rewards."

"After thinking about this, only the reward given by Concubine Yi is good. Xiao Xiazi is inviting Moon Palace to serve as a servant, so she can also be ashamed to wear the things that Concubine Yi is rewarded."

"So the slave gave this thing to Xiao Xiazi, so the slave recognized this thing but was not a slave."

“…”

Jin Yanrong frowned even deeper as he heard these nonsense. Before he could ask, Zong Zhiqian next to him carried a small eunuch and threw it in front of the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, I have asked, this person is Xiao Xiazi in the mouth of Eunuch Chu."

Xiao Xiazi knelt on the ground in horror. Zong Zhiqian turned around and took the eunuch's clothes that he had found and said, "This is the evidence I have found in the palace of Concubine Yi."

Zong Zhiqian continued to bow his head and said, "Xiao Xiazi is a eunuch from the Silijian. He went to the Yiyue Palace to serve as a servant half a month ago. According to the oral statements of several palace maids in the Yiyue Palace, this person is well-liked and loved by the Queen of Concubine Desire. He has been serving him closely, and is very appreciated by the Queen of Concubine Desire."

"I sent someone to adjust this person's shoes to compare the footprints on the beams of the stage roof, which was exactly the same. Someone once saw this person not in the Yaoyue Palace on the night of Qingbaoyuan opening."

"To conclude in this way, he is the one who committed the crime."

Xiao Xiazi looked up in horror, and kowtowed to the emperor in a bang, saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Jin Yanrong slapped the table in anger and said, "It's a crime that deserves death! Who gave you the courage to murder the Queen Mother!"

Xiao Xiazi was so scared that her face was pale, and she turned to Concubine Yi in a panic and helpless manner and said, "Grandmaster, help me, Immortal--!"

Liu Qinyi looked at Xiao Xiazi with shock and said as if he was a ghost: "What are you calling at me? What are you saving me..."

"Empress! How could you do this to destroy the bridge when crossing the river!"

"I clearly agreed that this matter was foolproof, and I just need to push it to the imperial concubine. Now, seeing that the matter is exposed, is he actually disregarding his servants' life or death?"

"Empress...you are so cruel!"

"If I hadn't received your order, how dare I, how dare I, to murder the Empress Dowager and frame the Imperial Concubine..."

Xiao Xiazi's words were heartbroken, and the words were like sharp arrows piercing the heart. In an instant, they were all holes pierced by her body. The words were like huge rocks in the mountains and suddenly pressed up. Even if she had a hundred words, she could not defend herself.

Liu Qinyi pointed at Xiao Xiazi tremblingly, and her heart angrily shouted as if it was bleeding: "You...what are you talking about!?"

"How could I say these words? How dare you frame me!" Liu Qin was so angry that she wanted to rush up and strangle the dog slave who was full of nonsense to death.
