Chapter 790 The Palace Maid's Revenge 22
"Concubine Su, stop making false statements here," the Queen said angrily. "If you have any evidence, then go and report me to the Emperor instead of making false statements here and throwing dirty water on me without any evidence."
"Alright," the Queen said hurriedly, not wanting to let Concubine Su say anything else, "I still have to go to Luanfeng Palace, so you all should leave quickly!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the queen stood up and strode outside.
"You guys think that the cup of tea that the concubine just drank, could it be that it was really drugged?"
"Who knows? Maybe the Queen can't help but attack Concubine Chen. But who can be blamed for this? The only thing to blame is Concubine Chen's arrogance. She doesn't take the Queen seriously at all. No wonder the Queen took such a risk to drug Concubine Chen."
"Now we are going to have a good show. If the Concubine Chen's body is really ruined by the Queen, let's see how arrogant she will be in the future. And the Queen, she is really courageous to drug the Concubine Chen so blatantly. Could it be that she thinks that the Emperor will never depose her?"
"........."
"........."
The concubines were whispering and talking about it. Whether it was bad luck for the Concubine Chen or the Queen, it was a good thing for them.
The fact that Concubine Chen was so favored had long made people gnashing their teeth in hatred. If Concubine Chen could not give birth to a child in the future, it would be a happy occasion for the concubines in the harem.
As for the Queen...
As concubines in the harem, who wouldn't have thoughts about the position of queen? Even though most of them knew that even if the queen was deposed, it would not be their turn to be queen.
But so what? It doesn’t affect their secret happiness.
When the queen rushed to Luanfeng Palace, the emperor was already there.
"Your Majesty, best wishes." The Queen stepped forward and saluted the Emperor.
The Emperor did not ask the Queen to stand up, but said in a cold voice: "Queen, I heard from the Imperial Concubine that the Concubine Chen got into trouble because she drank the tea in your palace. Does the Queen have any excuses?"
"Your Majesty, I am innocent!" The Queen said calmly, "The tea prepared in my palace was not prepared for Concubine Chen alone. If Concubine Chen really got into trouble because she drank the tea in my palace, how can we explain that the other concubines were fine, but Concubine Chen was the only one in trouble?"
"Of course, only the tea that Concubine Chen drank was drugged by the Queen," Concubine Wang said, "I guess the teacup that Concubine Chen drank from has been destroyed by now!"
"My Lady, what deep hatred do I have against you that would make you frame me like this?" The Queen looked at Lady Wang angrily. "Yes, I have already put away the teacup that Lady Chen drank from, but is there anything wrong with that?"
"Could it be that someone was visiting the Imperial Concubine's Palace? After the guest left, the servants in the Imperial Concubine's Palace would have left the teacup that the guest had drunk from, and not had the foresight to clean it quickly."
"Don't quibble, Queen," Concubine Wang said angrily, "If you didn't drug Concubine Chen, how can you explain that Concubine Chen got into trouble right after she left your palace?"
"How would I know this?" The Queen turned to the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, please help me! Although I don't get along with the Concubine Chen, I would never use such a crude method to poison her in my own palace. Please investigate this matter thoroughly and clear my name."
The queen was very panicked and kept praying in her heart, hoping that Nanny Tian would not let her down. She didn't need her to explain and just knew to quickly destroy all the medicine given by Doctor Zhu.
As for the people in her palace, the Queen was not worried that they would reveal anything. After all, only a few of her confidants knew that Concubine Chen was drugged, and the families of those confidants had been controlled by the Queen's family early on. They were afraid that any of them would betray her.
Therefore, the Queen was not worried at all that they would confess something, but even so, the Queen was still very panicked at this moment. She could only pray that the Emperor would not really find out anything, otherwise she would probably end up as the Queen.
"I have already asked someone to investigate," the emperor said in a very cold tone, "The queen had better pray that her hands and feet are indeed clean, otherwise if I find out..."
"Your Majesty," At this moment, the imperial physician came out from the palace, "The Concubine Chen is now out of danger, but I was unable to save the baby in her belly."
The emperor exuded a terrifying coldness, which frightened the imperial physician into trembling with fear: "The Concubine Chen has been pregnant for a month, but because she took drugs that damaged her body, she lost the baby. The drug not only caused the Concubine Chen to have a miscarriage, but also completely damaged the foundation of her body, so that she will never be able to get pregnant again."
"My humble servant speculates that the drug should have only destroyed Concubine Chen's body and cut off her fertility. Moreover, the drug was extremely delicate. If Concubine Chen was not pregnant when she took the drug, or if Concubine Chen took the drug by mistake when she was not pregnant, it would be impossible to find out that Concubine Chen was drugged."
"You vicious woman." The emperor stood up and slapped the queen hard.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent!" The Queen didn't care about her face which was numb from the beating, and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty and I have been married for so many years. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
"If I cannot tolerate others giving birth to children, how can the princes and princesses in the palace be born safely? The most important thing is that I still don't have any children, so I have no reason to harm the concubine! After all, I don't even have children. What good will it do for me to make the concubine infertile?"
"That's because the Queen is jealous of Concubine Chen," Concubine Wang glared at the Queen and said, "Because Concubine Chen is different from the Emperor, the Queen has long disliked her. When Concubine Chen was still a palace maid, the Queen began to target her."
"Later, when Concubine Chen became a concubine, the Queen became even more jealous of her, so she naturally resorted to insidious methods to destroy Concubine Chen's body and cut off her reproductive function."
"Queen, you have such a vicious heart!" Concubine Li pointed at the Queen and said, "It's true that Concubine Chen did something wrong. She shouldn't have provoked the Queen like that. But even if Concubine Chen did something wrong, the Queen shouldn't have been so cruel as to destroy Concubine Chen's body."
The queen really wanted to spit on Concubine Wang.
Haha! Calling her vicious is really easy. If her position and that of Concubine Wang were switched, and Concubine Wang was bullied by Concubine Chen, would Concubine Wang still be able to say such high-sounding words?
"Noble Concubine Wang, you don't have to throw dirty water on me. Whether I am vicious or not, I believe the emperor will make his own judgment and investigate the matter thoroughly. It is not for you, Noble Concubine Wang, to convict me with just your words without any evidence." The queen looked at Noble Concubine Wang and said bitterly:
