What is the story between them? Are they really sisters who have a good relationship, or do they hide murderous intentions from each other?
For a moment, Tang Wan'er couldn't make an accurate judgment, after all, there were still very few clues.
However, Chu Jieyu did have the motive and opportunity to commit the crime.
Moreover, it is very common for this kind of thing to happen in the harem.
What troubles Tang Wan'er now is whether she should tell the fourth prince about this matter.
"Cang, tell me, should I tell the fourth prince about her mother-in-law sacrificing his biological mother in the middle of the night?"
Tang Wan'er thought for a while and turned around to ask Fang Cangyuan.
"I feel that if the fourth prince knew about it, he might not be able to judge objectively."
"What you said makes sense. I'd better observe it for a while before talking. Oh, by the way." Tang Wan'er then asked, "Are there any clues about the 'dimen'?"
"The little one is near the city gate. I have searched all suspicious places. But the underground gate must be marked, otherwise no one will be able to find it."
"Yeah. Indeed, I still have to check again to see if there are any obvious symbols."
The next day, Tang Waner was at Chu Jieyu's side. Empress Jieyu was embroidering yesterday's picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water.
Suddenly, the needle pricked the empress's delicate and white hand, and bright red blood beads rolled down onto the silk surface, and the clear lake water was dyed red with blood.
"pain."
Chu Jieyu frowned and shouted out loud.
Suibi quickly helped Jieyu bandage up and scolded Tang Wan'er a few times. However, Empress Jieyu said a kind word for Tang Wan'er.
But Suibi retorted, saying that it was because the empress was too kind that she became like this...
Suibi, who knew that she had made a mistake, then shut up.
"Is your Majesty still in pain? Our fingers are connected to our hearts."
Chu Jieyu smiled and did not feel particularly concerned about the pain.
"Yes, there is no way it won't hurt if your fingers are connected to your heart. Especially for someone like me who has lost the love of her husband, there's no point in saying whether it hurts or not."
There was something indescribable in Tang Wan'er's heart.
"Emotional matters cannot be forced, so why don't you, your empress, be more open-minded? Life and death are determined by fate, wealth, and honor. Since your empress has many shortcomings, if you use her talents to the fullest, she might still be able to leave her name in history and benefit future generations.
The empress is full of blessings, and she has the blessings she deserves. What's more, the empress is a virtuous and beautiful woman, but many mothers cannot have it."
There were hints of testing Jieyu in Tang Wan'er's words. Of course, what she said was also from the bottom of her heart. She felt that Jieyu should not just be trapped in the palace and be a resentful woman.
"I didn't expect Yu Jing to know a lot at such a young age. It seems that this great bachelor teaches well."
"Your Majesty, thank you very much."
"There is no need to be so modest." Chu Jieyu stood up and fiddled with a plant of orchid. "Actually, everyone knows that I have lost my love and lost the emperor's heart. If I hadn't climbed up to the Queen Mother and had a child under her knees,
I can't tell you how miserable it is."
"Your Majesty is kind-hearted, intelligent and knowledgeable, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Even for the sake of the Fourth Prince and Princess Xuan Gong, Your Majesty should take care of yourself. They are all worried about you."
After hearing Tang Wan'er's words, Chu Jieyu was stunned for a moment. Then she smiled with relief.
"They are all good children. But I may not be a good mother-in-law."
Tang Wan'er raised her head in surprise, wondering, does Empress Jieyu want to reveal something to her?
