Imperial Plot - C272 Believe her

“How dare you!” Bao’er, who was by Yun Mengqi’s side, said sternly, “Is Concubine Yun questioning the Empress? It seems like it’s a little too much for Concubine Yun to speak like that to the empress, doesn’t it? ”

The Zhong Miao Yi walked closer, looked at Yun Mengqi, and ignored Bao Er: “We have known each other for so many years. Empress, you have hated me for so many years, but this matter, how you decide it, still depends on your majesty.”

The Zhong Miao Yi used Su Zeyi to suppress her?!

Yun Mengqi was so angry that she almost died. Of course she knew that Su Zeyi would speak up for the Zhong Miao Yi, but such a recognition was still unacceptable to Yun Mengqi.

“I also have the right to punish you!” Yun Mengqi roared, but kept his tone low.

“Then I ask the empress to punish me.” Zhong Miao Yi smirked, “What will happen to Su Zeyi then?”

Su Zeyi would definitely make her wish that he was dead.

The moment Su Zeyi was mentioned, he could no longer act arrogantly.

Zhong Miao Yi was not prepared to stand there foolishly. She looked at Zhou Xu and said softly, “If your health is not good, don’t think so much into it every day. Even if the imperial physician tells you to lie down and drink medicine, it won’t stop your mouth?”

After he finished speaking, Zhong Miao Yi walked out and sat on the porch, waiting for Su Zeyi and Empress Dowager Xi’s arrival.

Su Zeyi and Empress Dowager Xi arrived quickly, and the Zhong Miao Yi didn’t have to wait long before they arrived.

Su Zeyi did not immediately go inside to see Zhou Xu, but instead walked in front of Zhong Miao Yi. He pulled Zhong Miao Yi who was about to bow and asked him softly: “Why are you with Zhou Xu when something happens to her?”

“I heard her cry for help.” The reason why Zhong Miao Yi chose to believe in Su Zeyi was definitely because he wanted to help her figure out the reason.

But there was actually no need for that. The Zhong Miao Yi did not need these things to prove her innocence.

If he hadn’t done it, he hadn’t done it. It wasn’t something that anyone could casually slander.

Empress Dowager Xi walked over to Su Zeyi’s side and said in a low voice, “What’s the use of asking her now? How is the Imperial Consort X’s health? Should the Emperor not care about this? ”

Su Zeyi frowned. He really didn’t want to hear the Empress Dowager’s words. Zhong Miao Yi tugged at him and shook his head slightly.

If there was anything to say, say it slowly. Right now, it really didn’t look like it.

Empress Dowager Xi ignored them. After entering, she first sat beside Zhou Xu and asked her a few concerned questions. Everyone knew that the child was fine and only needed to be raised for a period of time.

Su Zeyi thought that if Zhou Xu insisted on saying that it was the Zhong Miao Yi who did it, then he could only use some methods to resolve this matter.

It was just that … As for the Zhong Miao Yi, it was inevitable that they had these thoughts in their hearts.

Therefore, the best method was still to keep Zhou Xu under control. If there was no proof, then he would not loosen his mouth.

There was nothing that could stop Su Zeyi’s determination to protect Zhong Miao Yi. Su Zeyi was very clear in his heart about what kind of person Zhong Miao Yi was.

Even if one day Zhong Miao Yi really did this, then it was definitely Zhou Xu who would be the one to get hurt first.

It was with great difficulty that he worked so hard to gradually restore Zhong Miao Yi. Now, no one could even think of making him do one thing wrong.

Zhou Fu cried loudly. Zhong Miao Yi stood at the side with an expressionless face.

Empress Dowager Xi listened for a while, then turned her head and spoke in a low voice, “Kneel.”

Zhong Miao Yi did not resist and obediently knelt down. Empress Dowager Xi looked at Su Zeyi with a threatening gaze.

Su Zeyi looked up, his face full of confusion. “What does the empress dowager want us to say?”

“Yun Xiao is already this bold, the emperor still wants to protect her?” Empress Dowager Xi couldn’t believe that Su Zeyi was actually asking her what she wanted to hear from him?

Was this woman really that trustworthy in Su Zeyi’s heart?

“I heard what the Imperial Consort X said, but even if there is a secret behind this matter, we must at least investigate it or talk about it later, right?” Su Zeyi replied indifferently, he was not excited or angry.

Zhou Xu did not say anything, but she felt really uncomfortable. In Su Zeyi’s heart, could she and the child in her womb even compare to the Zhong Miao Yi?

“Evidence?” Empress Dowager Xi narrowed her eyes. “Even if His Majesty wanted to cover up his concubine, he shouldn’t have said it in such a dignified manner. Imperial Consort X is the emperor’s flesh and blood.”

Su Zeyi was a little annoyed as he frowned. “Since the empress dowager has confirmed that it was Consort Yun who did this with such firm words, then we have a few questions, can you answer them?”

Empress Dowager Xi took a deep breath and patted Zhou Xu’s back to reassure her. After saying that she would definitely uphold justice for her, she looked at Su Zeyi and said, “Your majesty, please ask.”

“Since the empress dowager said that it was done by her, then why did she do it?” Su Zeyi asked.

The empress dowager laughed coldly and pointed at Zhong Miao Yi, “Does Your Majesty still not understand? “This woman brought back the body and bones of the crippled monarch from outside the palace. I don’t know what she’s planning, but once the emperor’s own son is born, the child in her hands won’t be able to receive the emperor’s favor anymore. Of course she has sufficient reasons to do so.”

What Empress Dowager Xi said was indeed a matter, and Zhong Miao Yi was indeed worried about it. However, Empress Dowager Xi had yet to say a thing, Zhong Miao Yi had never thought of killing another person’s child in exchange for Zhong Jiming’s future.

But in Empress Dowager Xi’s eyes, such a motive was more than enough.

“I can guarantee this. I can never have such dirty thoughts.” Su Zeyi didn’t listen to what the Empress Dowager had to say and insisted on protecting the Zhong Miao Yi.

Zhong Miao Yi knelt on the ground. Her heart was not unmoved by this, Su Zeyi. Really changed a lot.

If he could have changed his mind earlier. Zhong Miao Yi was willing to give all her heart to him.

But now, the Zhong Miao Yi didn’t know if she was moved or something else.

Empress Dowager Xi was so angry at Su Zeyi’s attitude that she almost died. She pointed at Zhong Miao Yi and said viciously, “How could the emperor be fooled by a concubine?!”

Su Zeyi changed his posture and sat down as he sighed, “Esteemed Empress Dowager, I was not deceived by Consort Yun, it was us who had known Consort Yun for so many years. We know what kind of person she is, and we also know that she wouldn’t do such a thing.

It would never be punished.

Su Zeyi expressed his attitude and determination, looking as if he would never change his mind no matter what the Empress Dowager said.

Yun Mengqi stood at the side, looking at Zhong Miao Yi, she knew that this would be the result.
