Concubine Xian was aggressive and pointed her finger at Xia Yan.
I just wanted to laugh: "You say Concubine Shu is a spy, is there any evidence?"
Concubine Xian waved her hand: "Search!"
Xia Yan stood up and said with a cold face: "Stop, this is Panlong Palace, how can you allow you to do whatever you want!"
"Is it possible that Concubine Shu has a guilty conscience when she refuses to allow the search? Your Majesty, from my concubine's point of view, Concubine Shu is clearly guilty of being a thief!"
While they were talking, one of the palace maids came up with a mahogany box in her hand and said excitedly: "Xianfei, I have found it!"
After taking a closer look, it turned out to be the gift I was planning to give to Xia Yan. Just when I was about to get angry, I saw Concubine Xian skillfully pushing open the bottom of the box, and there was a hidden compartment inside.
Concubine Xian proudly picked out the note in the secret box with her finger: "Concubine Shu, do you have anything else to say?"
"My concubine has nothing to say. Everything depends on the king's decision."
Concubine Xian snorted coldly, and her beautiful face suddenly turned cold: "Even if the king loves you, he will never tolerate you betraying him! I will make sure you die today!"
After speaking, he opened the small piece of paper and presented it with both hands: "Your Majesty, please take a look at it!"
I leaned over to watch with suspicion, and suddenly laughed.
"Chang Ting, you are so naughty!"
A whole room of people looked at my smiling face without understanding. Concubine Xian was shocked and quickly turned the note over. When she saw the content on it, her face suddenly changed: "This... this..."
It turned out that the note was not a secret letter to collaborate with the enemy, but a poem.
——Spring banquet, a glass of green wine and a song. First, I wish that my husband will live a thousand years. Second, I wish that my concubine will live forever. Third, I wish that we will be like the swallows on the beam, and we will see each other year after year!
Xia Yan had the upper hand and felt very comfortable. He walked closer and took the note from Concubine Xian's finger. He gently handed it to me and said in a gentle tone: "Concubine Xian, you actually think that this poem is a secret letter to collaborate with the enemy."
, I am ashamed of myself!!”
Concubine Xian panicked and looked at me unwillingly and said: "Your Majesty, I am wronged. The real secret letter must have been transferred away by her!"
"Why do you say that?" I asked.
"If it wasn't a secret letter of collaboration with the enemy, why would it be so secretive?" Concubine Xian argued.
"Because I am preparing to give the King a surprise, there is also a safety lock in this box, which I gave to the King on my birthday!"
I looked at Xia Yan with disdain, "Is this okay? It's obviously a gift I'm planning to give to you!"
Concubine Xian bit her lower lip, grabbed the box and opened it. Sure enough, there was a safety lock inside. The evidence was conclusive. Concubine Xian's legs softened and she knelt in front of me: "Your Majesty... I am my concubine... I am wronged! I am my concubine last night.
I received a secret report saying that Concubine Shu had a box hidden under her bed, and in the box was a secret letter of collaboration with the enemy. I was afraid that the king would be harmed, so... I came to search the palace!"
"Xianfei, this is not the first time for you!" I looked at her pretending to be sad.
Hearing what I said, Concubine Xian couldn't help but shed tears: "Your Majesty, I really didn't frame you on purpose, someone wanted to frame me!"
No matter who frames whom, the final victory still belongs to Xia Yan.
I turned to look at him: "You have to figure it out!"
Xia Yan walked up to her: "Since you said someone was framing you, why not do this? Concubine Xian swears a blood oath in front of the king. If you dare to swear it, I will plead with the king to spare you!"
Concubine Xian was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "I am willing to swear a blood oath!"
Blood oath, as the name suggests, swears by one's own blood. If you tell lies, you will be punished by God. This is more practical than killing your whole family.
