Although the Empress was unwilling, she still left in a hurry with Xiao Heng to find evidence.

However, when she pa.s.sed by Consort Shu, her eyes flashed with viciousness.

When Consort Shu saw this, she knew their real war had begun.

“Li, send both mother and son back to Weiyang Palace.” After the Emperor finished speaking, he couldn’t be bothered to pay any more attention to them.

After they left, the Emperor remembered that since the birth of the Ninth Princess, no child had been born in the palace for more than ten years.

He had not taken it to heart before, but now he was concerned.

When Eunuch Li returned, the Emperor sent him out again. He had him bring Imperial Physician Chen to the palace to conduct a general survey of the mistresses of the various palaces.

Once the investigation was done, they all broke out in a cold sweat.

All the favored concubines in the palace had been poisoned with sterilization drugs, which forced the Emperor to investigate this matter personally. Otherwise, he might even get drugged to death one day.

In Weiyang Palace, when King Kang found out that the Emperor had sent people to conduct a general survey in the palace, he looked at Consort Shu in panic and asked, “Mother, will he find out about us?”

“Don’t worry; before we went to his study, I had already made arrangements. It won’t trace back to us.”

“Are you sure?”

“I’m sure. You just have to insist that you don’t know anything.”

The palace was in chaos, but Zhou Ying was in a good mood.

She had brought Er Zhuang to her manor to find a companion for him.

After returning to the capital in the evening, Zhou Ying subconsciously spread her divine senses to the entire capital.

When she saw all the women in King Hui’s residence despairing and lamenting as if their husbands had died, she quickly learned the whole story and what had happened in the palace.

After dinner, Zhou Ying returned to her inters.p.a.ce and told Gu Chengrui how King Hui’s and the Emperor’s concubines were sterilized.

“Consort Shu and her son are really ruthless.”

“They’re ruthless, and they’ve been preparing for many years. They definitely have a backup plan. I just wonder who will be unlucky enough to take the blame.”

“I don’t think they could push it to King Rui, right?”

“It’s hard to say, but it might be Seventh Su.”

To their disbelief, the Empress’s report and the Emperor’s evidence pointed toward Princess Pingyang.

The motive was revenge.

She wanted to avenge the Empress for causing her to fall into a pond in the middle of winter and lose fertility.

She was also taking revenge on the Emperor for disregarding her wishes and forcing her to marry into the Gu Family.

“Brother Rui, do you think it’s credible? Isn’t this just slandering the dead?” Zhou Ying huffed angrily after receiving the news.

“Since all the evidence points to her, it means that Pingyang was involved somehow.

“Don’t forget, Pingyang has been married to the Gu Family for over 20 years but has never given birth to a child. There has never been any news of her getting pregnant.

“Therefore, it’s not impossible for her to be involved in this.

“However, she’s definitely not the mastermind, and it’s likely that she had become a chess piece in Consort Shu’s hands.”

“Princess Pingyang is sure unlucky. She was a p.a.w.n from beginning to end.”

“As long as they don’t drag us into this, it’s fine.” Gu Chengrui replied.

Zhou Ying was speechless when she heard that. However, if they were really so shameless, she would not mind changing the dynasty sooner.

The next day, during the morning court session, Gu Chengrui huddled in a corner as usual, listening to the reports.

After finis.h.i.+ng the important matter, Prime Minister Su stepped forward and reported, “Emperor, the sterilization incident is already known. We implore that you punish the culprit..”
