"The eldest prince!"

"What?" Shufei's smile was frozen on her face and looked at the palace maid in disbelief.

"It was the eldest prince who asked me to do this! Musk was given to me by the eldest prince, so I asked me to secretly touch the queen's clothes!" The palace maid kowtowed.

"Nonsense! You can slander the eldest prince?" Concubine Shu started to angrily and raised her hand to hit her.

But Madam Yuan stepped forward and blocked her, "Empress Shufei! You can tell if you ask me in detail!"

Concubine Shu shook her hand and snorted, "No need to ask, I know that the eldest prince would not do such a thing!" If the eldest prince impulsively pushed down the queen and murdered the queen, she still believed that poisoning would definitely not be something that the eldest prince would do with such a straightforward manner!

The queen asked the little palace maid, "You said the eldest prince asked you to do this, do you have any evidence?"

"Yes!" The little palace maid nodded repeatedly and carefully took out something from her arms. "This is what the eldest prince gave to me. She said that with this thing as a token, she would wait... After the matter was done, the eldest prince would ask the Empress Dowager for me to serve him!" The thing that the little palace maid said naturally refers to the empress's miscarriage.

Speaking of this, the little palace maid looked a little shy. Xu Shu then looked at the palace maid sideways. It was indeed a bit beautiful, and it was not impossible for the eldest prince to be attracted to. As I saw in the Imperial Garden today, the palace maids given to the eldest prince were extremely ordinary. I think after the palace maids were pregnant, the queen mother also realized that if the eldest prince was addicted to eroticism at the age of the eldest prince, it would ruin his ambitions, so she appointed the palace maids to serve the eldest prince to have no appearance.

Madam Yuan took the object in the palace maid's hand and looked at it. She checked it carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, she handed it to the Empress, "Please look at Empress!"

"This is..." The queen looked at the golden jade ring and felt familiar.

Madam Yuan replied, "At the beginning of the year, the emperor issued an order to the eldest prince to practice riding and shooting, and specially gave a ring to practice archery. I just saw it carefully. The ring given to the eldest prince by the emperor was the one held by this palace maid!"

Concubine Shu also recognized the ring. It was really the first prince's thing and was stunned for a moment. This ring was given by the emperor. No matter how ignorant the eldest prince was, he would not throw it away or even give it to others. Now the ring is in the hands of this palace maid. Is it really the token given to the eldest prince by the token given to her in order to win over the palace maid to do his business to him, and she planned to take the ring back by asking for the palace maid?

"All nonsense!"

The eldest prince, who was hiding outside and waiting for an opportunity, finally couldn't help it and rushed in from outside the door.

"Why is the eldest prince here?" The queen was surprised.

Concubine Shu was even more surprised, "Why is the emperor here?" Shouldn't the eldest prince be in the hall at this time?

The eldest prince was furious and even forgot about etiquette. He rushed up and kicked the palace maid a few times, "Bold slut, how dare I slander me!"

However, the eldest prince looked more angry, and beating the palace maid was quite suspicious of killing people to silence him.

Madam Yuan stepped forward to stop him, and sure enough, she was kicked by the eldest prince. In addition, the kick in the imperial garden, Madam Yuan was humiliated at the hands of the eldest prince for the second time today.

The queen couldn't stand the absurdity of the eldest prince and said a little sternly, "Stop!"

However, the queen has always had little relationship with the eldest prince. When the eldest prince and Shufei were favored in the early years, the eldest prince never took the queen's legitimate mother into consideration. The queen's words were not good for the eldest prince. Moreover, today's eldest prince was filled with anger towards the queen, and he didn't take the queen's words seriously at all, and he had to beat him again.

Seeing that the queen did not seem to have completely believed the palace maid's words, the eldest prince was so impulsive and instead made a bad thing. So he stepped forward to hold the eldest prince and shouted, "Stop! You won't listen to the Queen's words!"

When did he hear the queen's words? The eldest prince was disdainful in his heart, but he still had some feelings for his biological mother, Concubine Shu, so he obediently stopped. The palace maid curled herself into a ball and hugged on the ground with trembling. The queen felt distressed and asked someone to help her to the other side away from the eldest prince.

"Why don't you pay me a favor to the Queen!" Shufei urged.

The eldest prince did not move, his fire-breathing eyes stared at the little palace maid huddled on the other side of the queen. When he saw Xu Shu, he suddenly remembered what Xu Shu told him about the queen's plan against him in the imperial garden today. Could it be that the queen could not wait to attack him?

"Forget it!" The empress was ignored by a concubine's prince, and no matter how kind the empress looked, she showed some displeasure. "I am just about to summon the eldest prince to come and ask clearly. Since the eldest prince has come here himself, I will also save myself from looking for someone again!" In the surprised gaze of Madam Yuan, the empress indifferently ordered, "Give me a seat!"

"Thank you Empress!" Under the cold gaze of Madam Yuan, Concubine Shu forced the unwilling eldest prince to sit down next to her.

"Can the eldest prince hear the words of the palace maid just now?" the queen asked.

"So what if I hear it?" the eldest prince said disdainfully, "Does the Empress believe in the one-sided words of a mere slut?"

"Of course not! That's why I have to ask the eldest prince again! This ring was rewarded by the emperor to the eldest prince, so how could it be in the hands of this palace maid?"

"..." The eldest prince suddenly hesitated.

That day, the news that the queen was pregnant spread throughout the harem. When the eldest prince heard it at the school, he felt angry. There were several guards who usually flattered the eldest prince and were talking about it. He couldn't help but say a few words to vent his anger. Unexpectedly, the emperor who happened to see him was seen by him. Not only did he punish the two guards severely, but he also let the eldest prince go with Qiuhun and learn to ride and archery in anger.

The eldest prince returned to the palace angrily and felt uneasy. Seeing the ring on his hand, he couldn't help but remember that the emperor had spared him from accompanying him in Qiu Hunting. He took it off on the spot and threw it out the window. After he was relieved, he couldn't find it when he remembered that he wanted to find it again. He thought that it was picked up by some palace maid and eunuch. The loss of the imperial gift was a serious crime. The eldest prince did not dare to speak out and kept searching everywhere. Unexpectedly, the ring appeared in the hands of the palace maid who identified him as the emperor's heir in the belly of the queen, but he could not argue.

Seeing the eldest prince's expression not changing, Concubine Shu felt a chill. Could it be that the eldest prince was really doing it? How could the eldest prince be so confused? He acted impulsively for a piece of flesh that he didn't know was a man or a woman.

Seeing that the eldest prince refused to answer, Concubine Shu was secretly anxious and intended to rescue the eldest prince. However, the ring was a gift from the emperor. Lost it is a serious crime, and being stolen is also a crime, so she could not even find an excuse.
