After the young eunuch rolled on the ground, even the hat on his head rolled far away. He was scared out of his wits and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy. “Please spare your life, Your Majesty. This servant doesn’t know anything. It was the empress who sent this servant to investigate, so this servant doesn’t dare to disobey, Your Majesty.”
The empress looked at the little eunuch and spat at him. “You audacious slave, you actually dare to spout nonsense here?! Who instructed you to do this?!”
The young eunuch also looked at the Empress in confusion and said weakly, “Empress, are you confused? Didn’t you ask this servant to come over and inquire about what happened after Miss Jingyi was captured? Why aren’t you admitting it now?”
The empress’ eyes were about to pop out. She shook her head repeatedly and denied, “B*stard, how dare you slander me! Your Majesty, please be clear. I really don’t know anything. But what did Jingyi do to make you angry? That has nothing to do with me, Your Majesty!”
Jingyi woke up from her slumber in pain, but when she heard the empress’ words, she looked up in surprise and looked at the empress. “Your Majesty the Empress, how can you ignore this servant? This servant is doing everything for you.”
It would have been fine if Jingyi had not opened her mouth, but the moment she did, the empress immediately pounced on her and raised her hand to give her a loud slap.
With a slap, half of Jingyi’s face was slapped askew. She looked at the empress in horror. “Your Majesty, how can you treat this servant like this!”
The fear in the empress’ eyes was not fake. She trembled and pointed at Jingyi’s nose. “Shut up, you sl*t, don’t continue to insult me! Your Majesty, I’ve really been wronged.”
Rong Zhan looked at this scene silently, his eyes rolling with an unfathomable light.
The empress did not look like she was joking. Her expression could not fool anyone. She really did not know what had happened, which was why she looked so terrified.
Even Rong Xiaotian’s anger dissipated a little when he saw the Queen’s terrified look. He looked in Rong Zhan’s direction with some suspicion. “Prince Regent, do you think there’s some misunderstanding? I see that the empress really doesn’t know.”
Rong Xiaotian had been sitting on the throne for so long and had seen many people with evil intentions.
However, no matter how they pretended, their eyes would not lie. One could tell what they were thinking at a glance.
However, the empress’ terrified expression did not seem like she was lying.
After hearing this, the empress felt relieved. She knelt and continued to argue for herself. “Your Majesty, I didn’t do it! It was definitely Jingyi who did it. This lowly servant did it! I had no idea!”
Jingyi had hoped that the empress would save her, but she never thought that the empress would abandon her like this!
Jing Yi felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. She trembled as she complained, “Empress, this servant wholeheartedly thinks for you, but you say this, it really hurts this servant’s heart! Since you are like this, then why should this servant help you hide it? Your Majesty, the empress is not the culprit who poisoned you. The real culprit is the crown prince! It was the crown prince who wanted to ascend to the throne, so he bewitched the empress. The empress and this servant were merely used by the crown prince.”
The empress widened her eyes and looked at Jingyi angrily, “You lowly servant, you actually dare to implicate my son! How dare you?!”
