The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C215

Chapter 214 – The Emperor is furious

Emperor Ming saw the blade hidden under the pillow.

Emperor Ming pulled out his sword. This was the sword that the assassin used to stab him that night. Under Su Fei’s pillow, Emperor Ming would actually grab Su Fei and viciously throw her to the ground.

“Speak, what is this?”

Emperor Ming pulled out his sword and pointed it at Su Fei. Su Fei was confused, who exactly hid that sword under her pillow? Could it be the sound I just heard?

“Please calm your anger Your Majesty, this isn’t a concubine.” Su Fei retorted.

Emperor Ming angrily retorted, “Who else could it be other than you? I’ve seen this sword before. You were the one who tried to assassinate me that night, right? ”

“It wasn’t me. The Emperor was wrongly accused.” She hadn’t even made a move when she was framed. Just who was it that had plotted against her like that?

“You still want to quibble about the fact that the person’s plunder is all here?” The Emperor Ming roared.

“Your Majesty, if I really wanted to harm you, I would’ve done so already. There’s no need to wait until tonight. Is it strange that you think about it? If I really wanted to kill you, I would have done so long ago when you favored me. ” Su Fei cried silently as she tried to use her tears to gain Emperor Ming’s sympathy.

Emperor Ming’s face darkened. What Su Fei said was not without reason. If she wanted to kill him, she could have done it earlier.

“Until this matter is investigated thoroughly, you are not allowed to take even half a step out of the Bright Moon Hall.”

Su Fei quickly kowtowed and said, “Many thanks to Your Majesty for giving chenqie the chance. I also ask that Your Majesty investigate this matter thoroughly.”

“Men, no one is allowed to enter or leave Bright Moon Hall. Looks like this assassin is in the palace.” Emperor Ming instructed.

Su Fei watched as Emperor Ming left, her eyes filled with killing intent. If he had known earlier, he would have killed the emperor with a single slash. Su Fei Fei didn’t know whether or not there would be a chance in the future, but what puzzled her was who had hidden the blade in her room.

The Emperor was furious, and he ordered his men to pursue the matter all night.

The imperial harem was in a state of panic over this matter.

“Yun Er, go see His Majesty.” After the Imperial Consort Leng found out that Su Fei was grounded, she went to see the Emperor Ming overnight.

“Greetings, Your Majesty. chenqie was worried about Your Majesty’s safety and came to take a look.”

“Love Consort, your body isn’t feeling well. You should rest up this late at night. I’m fine.” Emperor Ming was still thinking about what happened just now. Was Su Fei the murderer or not?

“Seeing that the emperor is fine, chenqie is at ease now. But Your Majesty, do you really believe that the assassin is Su Fei? ” Imperial Consort Leng could not help but ask.

“The sword appeared under her pillow, but Zhen could not find her motive for killing.” What the Emperor Ming did not understand was that a woman who was highly favored, could not have killed him for no reason.

The Imperial Consort Leng nodded, and said: “Chenqie felt that there must be something amiss about this matter, so I hope that the Emperor will thoroughly investigate this matter. “Don’t let the real culprit go, and don’t kill the innocent by mistake either.”

Su Fei was on the side of the Imperial Consort Leng, of course she would protect them. If she really was the murderer, she wouldn’t be able to get away with it. So no matter what, she would investigate this matter thoroughly, so as to prevent Su Fei from implicating herself during the process.

“Love Consort, you have been very protective of Su Fei as soon as she entered the palace.” Love Consort, you have been very protective of Su Fei as soon as she entered the palace. Emperor Ming naturally understood the meaning behind Emperor Ming’s words.

The Imperial Consort Leng said, “Your Majesty, chenqie has followed you for so many years and now you have the emperor’s child. Do you still doubt the feelings between us? But I believe that Su Fei is innocent. Please give her some time to investigate and make her decision. ”

“I am in a mess right now. You can go back first.” Emperor Ming sighed, he had been holding the Green Snake Sword and had been sizing it up.

Could this matter be related to the Emperor Yun? Emperor Ming thought.

“Feverfew, what’s going on outside? It seems like there are guards moving around. ” Qin Luofei also stood up and went outside to check the situation.

“I heard that the assassin has appeared again.” As she spoke, Daffodil Daydream couldn’t help but shudder.

“What are you afraid of? Assassins won’t assassinate us. ” Qin Luofei consoled.

Daffodil Dayflower was still trembling with fear as she said, “Miss, let’s go back to our room. It seems like this assassin is hiding in the palace and could kill someone at any time.”

“Even if an assassin were to hide within the palace, he wouldn’t kill an innocent person for no reason.” Qin Luofei replied back, hoping that she wouldn’t be too afraid.

Sunflower supported Qin Luofei, saying, “Miss, you aren’t an assassin, how do you know he won’t kill innocent people? “It’s better to be careful. There will be dew tonight. Miss, quickly go in. It won’t be good if you catch a cold later.”

Qin Luofei turned and walked into the house, the corner of her mouth raised.

Isn’t it called returning a tooth for a tooth? Wasn’t she supposed to be complacent after getting the Emperor Ming’s favor? This time, Emperor Ming was not only suspecting Su Fei alone. Imperial Consort Leng used to be so protective of a woman. Emperor Ming was a suspicious person and he must be wary of her now.

Su Fei was unable to sleep soundly in Bright Moon Hall. She got up and carefully observed outside the house, hoping to find some clues. If he couldn’t find evidence to prove his innocence, he didn’t know if the emperor would kill her or not. Emperor Ming was a cruel and merciless person. He used to throw Empress Leng into the Ten Thousand Beast Pit, this man could do anything.

“Who is it?” Su Fei heard footsteps coming from not too far away.

“Su Fei, what are you still doing here so late at night?” Imperial Consort Leng came to Bright Moon Hall overnight to find out the truth of the matter.

When Su Fei saw Imperial Consort Leng, she hurriedly went forward to welcome him and cried, “Imperial Concubine, you have to help me seek justice. I don’t know what I should do now. I was framed. ”

He had not even avenged himself yet, yet this sort of accident kept happening again and again.

“Get up. Tell me everything that happened. What exactly is it?” Imperial Consort Leng didn’t want to be questioned by Emperor Ming because of Su Fei, so she had to either wash Su Fei’s grievances clean or cut off their relationship.

Su Fei told Imperial Consort Leng what happened that night.

“Did you find any evidence?”

Su Fei’s eyes were brimming with tears as she said, “No, if chenqie wanted to kill the Emperor, she didn’t even need to wait until now. Imperial Concubine requests that you definitely believe chenqie.”

“What’s the use of me believing you? The main thing is that the Emperor trusts you. I also do not wish for anything to happen to you, but I hope that you will be alright. Imperial Consort Leng frowned.

Su Fei Su used the kernels to wipe the corners of her eyes and said: “Chenqie has let Imperial Concubine down, and has implicated you.”

“Now is not the time to talk about this. The most important thing is to find the murderer and prove your innocence.” Imperial Consort Leng’s face sank, this harem did not let her have peace for a single day.

If only he knew that something like this had happened to Su Fei Fei today, he wouldn’t have asked Emperor Ming for mercy and let her go. He had thought that this woman would be able to help him, but now it seemed that she was implicating him.

“But I have been grounded and cannot be investigated. Chenqie suspects that the culprit is someone from the palace. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so familiar with Bright Moon Hall. ”

Su Fei’s words were true, and Imperial Consort Leng was also suspecting that it was the doing of the people from the palace. However, it was difficult to find evidence, and now there was no one to suspect.

“Su Fei, stay in Bright Moon Hall and don’t go out. The thing that the Emperor Ming disliked the most was for others to go against his will. If you want to live, then do it obediently, I’ll investigate. ” Imperial Consort Leng said.

“Thank you, Imperial Concubine, this concubine will not be able to thank you enough.”

“If there’s a next time, I definitely won’t save you.” Imperial Consort Leng looked at Su Fei in disgust.

Su Fei lowered her head and respectfully sent Imperial Consort Leng off.

Imperial Consort Leng had just left when Su Fei stood up.

This woman wasn’t a good person either. She wasn’t afraid of trouble when she wanted to use him previously. She looked dissatisfied. How long would she have to endure? If she had known earlier, she would have met her end together.

“Imperial Consort Leng, it’s getting late. It’s time to go back and rest.” Yun Er advised from behind Imperial Consort Leng.

“How can I sleep when things are so bad.”

Imperial Consort Leng was not worried about encountering an assassin. She wandered around the imperial harem and bumped into the leader of the Imperial Secret Service.

“Greetings Imperial Concubine. It’s so late and the Empress still hasn’t gone to bed.” The leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guard looked at Imperial Consort Leng in doubt.

“What is it? Could it be that I have to report to you after wandering around? ” Imperial Consort Leng’s tone was extremely arrogant, a mere chief actually dared to speak to him in such a manner, she was simply tired of living.

“Imperial Consort Leng misunderstood this humble subject’s meaning. This humble subject is just worried that you might run into an assassin at such a late hour, what should I do?” The leader’s tone changed very quickly.

Emperor Ming had warned everyone to be on guard as long as they were wandering around the harem late at night. Just as he left Emperor Ming’s place, he bumped into Imperial Consort Leng, and had no choice but to be suspected by the leader.

“Humph!” “Make way.” Imperial Consort Leng snorted angrily and walked past the leader.

Imperial Consort Leng returned to Jin Se Palace and closed her eyes to rest.

“Imperial Consort, it’s already midnight. Why don’t you go to bed?” Yun Er was extremely worried about her body.

Emperor Ming suspected that something had happened to Su Fei Fei and it was difficult for her to fall asleep.

“How can I sleep? I have served the Emperor Ming wholeheartedly for so many years, and this is the first time the emperor has suspected me of anything regarding Su Fei.” Imperial Consort Leng sighed and said.

“Imperial Consort’s Phoenix Body also needs to be taken care of. Right now, you have the top six, so you need to rest more.”

Yun Er raised her eyebrows, hoping that Master was well. If Imperial Consort Leng did not eat or sleep well, then it would cause all of them who were palace maids to suffer.

Imperial Consort Leng only fell asleep after a long time. She struggled with her brain to think of the most suspicious person in the world, and that was Qin Luofei. She had punished her for Pearl, and now her motive for retaliating was justified. But from Su Fei’s description tonight, this person knew martial arts. Qin Luofei was just a helpless woman, but thinking about this, the Imperial Consort Leng got stuck again.

The next morning, Qin Luofei was in a very good mood. She got up early to read on the swing in the yard. The whole harem was in an uproar because of the assassination attempt on the emperor. Only she was still in the mood to read.

Sunflower said, “Miss, why are you still in the mood to read here? The entire harem is about to be overturned by the Imperial Consort Leng. ”

“Why?” Could it be that the Imperial Consort Leng wanted to personally investigate this matter?

“Imperial Consort Leng has always been in Bright Moon Hall. It seems like she understood the situation last night.”

“Let’s go and join in on the fun as well.”
