“The poison His Royal Highness was poisoned with is a very rare Gu Poison. Even for a princess, it was not easy to get it. Moreover, at that time, the princess’ target was the young prince, and His Royal Highness was injured protecting the young prince. If the empress dowager trusts this official, why don’t you let this official and the judge go and ask the thirteenth princess? As long as we can find the person behind this, this official will be able to develop an antidote faster.” Gu Qingxue suggested.

“Mmhm, Bi Zhu, go and see if the empress is still protecting Lil t Thirteen. Tell the empress that this is mv order. No matter what, we have to find the mastermind as soon as possible. Otherwise, if something happens to Zhan’er, 1 will definitely not let it go.” The empress dowager’s face was cold as she spoke unyieldingly.

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Bi Zhu nodded respectfully. She then quickened her pace and headed straight for eternal brightness Hall.

Bi Zhu had just returned to Changming Palace when she heard the thirteenth princess wailing loudly. She was covered in tears.

All the other officials in the Changming Palace fell silent. No one dared to plead for the thirteenth princess.

Granny Bi Zhu walked over and saw the tears on Rong Han’s face. He knelt down and bowed to Rong Xiaotian with a stubborn face, “I beg Your Majesty to seek justice for my father and give him justice.”

The empress sat beside Rong Xiaotian, still holding the crying thirteenth princess in her arms. “This young prince’s words are wrong. What happened to His Highness this time was an accident, and it was not deliberately done by someone, so how can there be justice? The young prince is making a mountain out of a molehill.’

Rong Han did not respond to the empress. He knelt down stubbornly and kowtowed to Rong Xiaotian, “Your Majesty, it happened so suddenly, but Han’er saw clearly that the poisonous bug came out of the thirteenth princess’s sachet. My father and Doctor Gu wanted to help me block it. If it were not for my father’s timely help and Doctor Gu t s help to prevent the poisonous bug from entering my father’s body, Han l er or my father would not have been able to escape death. Your Majesty, please help Han’er, my father, and the people of the prince regent’s residence.”

Rong Han’s words were clear and organized, and he did not sound like a five-year-old child at all.

“Your Majesty, I also think that this is no small matter. We should investigate the source of the poisonous insects to prevent more trouble.” At this moment, Imperial Duke Zhan stepped forward and saluted Rong Xiaotian.

“Imperial Duke Zhan, this matter is simply a family matter of the royal family. There’s no need to trouble you to speak up.” The empress’s heart clenched. She could not understand why Imperial Duke Zhan, was so nosy and took the initiative to stand up today.

One had to know that Imperial Duke Zhan, had never sided with anyone in the court. Even his son, Zhan Liuye. Although Zhan Liuye was the crown prince’s personal study attendant, his relationship with her son, the crown prince, had always been just casual acquaintances. The crown prince had extended an olive branch a few times, but Zhan Liuye had never responded.

However, regardless of Zhan Liuye or Imperial Duke Zhan, both father and son were people that the crown prince’s faction wanted to rope in. It was also because of this that the empress was rather cautious when she spoke and was unwilling to oppose Imperial Duke Zhan over this small matter.

Hearing the empress’ words, Imperial Duke Zhan was unmoved. “Your majesty the Empress’ words are wrong. Although this subject and His Majesty are ruler and subject, this subject knows that His Majesty values capable people, At the age of 20, the prince regent had charged into the enemy lines and defeated the strong enemy to protect his land. He was the most trusted official in the emperor’s eyes. However, he had never thought that he would be killed by poisonous insects today.. This official is also a military official and can sacrifice my life for the country, but if this official were to encounter such a situation and get killed, then this official would not be able to close my eyes even if I die!”
