Chapter 706 Finally figured it out
Chapter 706 Finally figured it out
"Empress Zhao, if you hadn't mentioned this, His Majesty probably wouldn't have sentenced you to death so quickly."
The expression on Eunuch Guo's face was normal, but the words he said made Concubine Zhao even more confused.
Perhaps because Concubine Zhao was about to die, Eunuch Guo was kind enough to let her be an ignorant ghost.
"What do you mean?"
"Empress Zhao, are you really pregnant?" Eunuch Guo lowered his eyes and stared at Concubine Zhao's lower abdomen.
"..." Zhaopin wanted to say that it was true, but then she remembered what Eunuch Guo had said before, and hesitated.
"I might as well tell you that His Majesty has never touched you these days, so how could you be pregnant? To say that something is true is a crime of deceiving the emperor. If you are really pregnant, then you are defiling the harem and trying to confuse the royal bloodline. In any case, it is not unjust to sentence you to death."
"No! This is impossible!"
Zhaopin didn't expect to hear such outrageous words.
"Your Majesty has been sleeping with me all these days, how could he not have touched me? You eunuch! What nonsense!"
She is not an innocent girl anymore.
How could she not know the body's reaction after something happens!
"Empress Zhao, His Majesty has indeed come to your palace often recently, but he has never slept in the same bed with you. His Majesty always rests there every time." He pointed to the soft couch beside him.
"And you slept on the floor. Every morning at dawn, I personally helped you back to bed."
"As for why you feel that way, you have to thank Princess Anguo for that. It was she who made the medicine."
"No! I don't believe it!"
Zhao Bin refused to believe such a strange thing.
"Your Majesty, why would you do this?! Your Majesty has no reason to do this!"
She was originally a concubine in the harem, and it was natural for her to sleep with the emperor. Why make things so complicated?
If you don't like her, why not just not come?
"Then I have to ask you, Concubine Zhao." Now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide anything.
"Why do you want to stretch your hands so far? You have united my mother's family and the Qin family outside the palace, as well as the Guan family and the Wang family. What have you done? Have you forgotten?"
For a moment, Zhaopin seemed to be frozen, even her breathing stopped.
Seeing her like this, Eunuch Guo continued, "The Queen is the most magnanimous and has never made things difficult for anyone in the harem. It's a pity that you want to harm such a person. Concubine Zhao, once you do something, you must be prepared to pay the price."
"No! I didn't! I didn't know anything and I didn't do anything!"
Although he said this, the guilt and understanding in his eyes could not deceive others.
At this moment, she finally understood why His Majesty did this.
The exclusive favor and tolerance he showed her these days were for others to see, and also for her to see.
Because of her declining influence in the palace in recent years, the Liu family has not done anything extra for some time.
It is not easy for Your Majesty to find any evidence against the Liu family.
After all, some things happened too long ago.
However, once she regains favor, the Liu family will definitely not be able to help herself.
The salt tax incident happened after she regained favor.
She also understood why Elder Zhou was brought back. For the sake of his daughter, Elder Zhou would go all out to find evidence.
She also understood why, among so many princesses, only the sixth princess she gave birth to was canonized.
From the very beginning, His Majesty wanted her and the Liu family's lives.
Without her biological mother and maternal family, life would not be too difficult if she had a title.
Ha ha……
It turns out that His Majesty didn't want her to live so early...
She was so stupid that she only figured it out now.
