Shu seemed completely oblivious, his eyes gleaming with an undisguised possessiveness as he stared at An Xuetang, uttering a cryptic sentence:"Why not come back to Dayue with this prince, Princess of...When Master Jianzhen discovered the poison on Li Ge'er, this woman's eyes were filled with shock, confusion, and then complete relief.

She thought that no one knew about her emotional changes throughout the process, because everyone's attention was focused on Master Jianzhen and Brother Li at the time. No one had ever considered paying attention to her.

She was unaware that this was merely a wishful thinking of hers. Mo Yunjing and An Xue Tang had already set their sights on her, and everything she displayed hadn't escaped their eyes.

An Xuetang was just very curious. Wasn't she Ming Ge'er's mother Why would she act this way

Does Ming'er's poison have anything to do with her

Being pointed at by Mrs. Jia as the culprit, the woman's face changed instantly. Just as she was about to put on a heartbroken performance, Mrs. Jia didn't give her a chance to cry.

"Little Wang, it's you...it must have been you who poisoned Brother Ming."

"Nonsense, I am Ming'ger's mother, how could I possibly poison my own son"

"You're talking nonsense."

Mrs. Jia seemed to have figured something out. She looked up at An Xuetang, "Your Highness, it's this woman, it must be this woman who poisoned Mingger. She isn't Mingger's biological mother at all."

An Xuetang instantly understood, so that's how it was. If she wasn't her biological mother, then everything made sense.

At this point, Jia was still explaining, "The mother of Brother Ming disappeared after giving birth to him. She was a concubine who was raised to be the main wife. Not only do I know this, they...they all know."

Mrs. Jia pointed to the women kneeling behind her. Hearing Mrs. Jia's words, several of them who knew about the matter nodded repeatedly, confirming the truth in her words.

If it weren't for Jia Shi bringing it up, they would have almost forgotten about it, after all, it had been almost ten years.

After this concubine rose to power, she treated Ming Ge'er like her own biological son, so much so that they almost forgot over the years that Ming Ge'er had another mother.

After Madam Jia finished speaking, another woman cautiously spoke up, "Your Majesty, during the incense burning earlier, Madam Xiao personally told me that she...she is pregnant."

Mrs. Jia was shocked, and then she suddenly realized, pointing at Mrs. Xiao Wang, "So that's how it is! You venomous woman, you finally became pregnant, so you want to kill Ming'er! What a wicked woman!"

Now everyone finally understood what was going on. Little Wang wanted to speak up and defend herself, but An Xuetang wouldn't give her the chance.

An Xuetang glanced at Mo Yunjing, then strode straight to Xiao Wangshi's side. She forcefully pulled her hand and felt her pulse, confirming that she was indeed pregnant.

"Heh."

An Xue Tang let out a cold, sinister laugh.

"It wasn't me, it wasn't me, Your Highness, I didn't... ah"

An Xuetang suddenly struck, slapping her hard. Just then, a group of people rushed over.

The man at the front was still wearing his official robes, looking very imposing.

He was Ming'ger's father, Zhou Chengfei, a scholar. He had met Mo Yunjing before, so after rushing over, he didn't say a word and bowed to Mo Yunjing immediately.

Next week, Chengfei will meet the King and Queen of Beijang.

He performed the courtesy with reluctance. An Xue Tang narrowed her eyes slightly, seeing through Zhou Chengfei's restraint.

This week, Cheng Fei is holding back, but his hands are clenched into fists, the veins on his hands bulging. Mo Yunjing glances at his hands with a knowing look and doesn't say anything.

An Xue Tang was just about to say he had arrived at the right time, but before she could speak, Zhou Cheng Fei had already spoken up and asked, "I wonder what crime this child has committed that would cause the King of Beijang to take his life"

""

All eyes widened in shock and disbelief. How could the Northern Frontier King have turned against his own son

It was his own wife who poisoned their son with her own hands!

Mrs. Jia looked at Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang, who were silent. She subconsciously wanted to speak, but at this moment, An Xuetang suddenly let out a chuckle.

Her smile almost made Zhou Chengfei, who had been suppressing his emotions, completely lose control. His cold eyes stared at An Xue Tang, and he gritted his teeth as he spoke:

"I suppose this must be the Princess Consort of Beijiang. I wonder what is so amusing to you, Your Highness Are you pleased by this child's death"

Mò Yún Jǐng's pitch-black, profound eyes narrowed slightly. He wanted to strike Zhōu Chéngfēi with a palm strike, but was held back by An Xuětáng.

An Xuetang gave him a calm and composed look, then she looked at Zhou Chengfei with a half-smile, "Zhou Scholar, why do you think it was King Beijiang and this concubine who harmed your son"

"It has been spreading through the city, and now I have seen my son's body with my own eyes, lying cold on the ground. Can't that tell you anything"

"So, Mr. Zhou really thinks your son is dead"

"!"

Zhou Chengfei's eyes widened instantly. At this moment, he didn't care about anything else and ran directly in front of Zhou Ming and knelt down.

He checked him directly, he wasn't dead... His son wasn't dead!

Zhou Chengfei's face was a whirlwind of emotions. After giving him time to process, An Xuetang spoke:

"Sir Zhou has risen to this position, so he must be a clever man. As for the rumors circulating in the capital that are unfavorable to the King of Beijang and I, Sir Zhou should be able to guess the source. I do not wish to elaborate further."

"Now, let's deal with why your son is here and how he became poisoned. After all, the King of Beijang and I were wrongly accused of being murderers, and we're both quite...unhappy about it!"

"If this matter is not handled well today, this concubine will not let it go. Otherwise, everyone will think that the King of Beijiang and this concubine are easy to bully."

In the middle of their conversation, An Xuetang glanced at Jia Shi. Jia Shi was quick-witted and understood An Xuetang's gaze. She immediately spoke up, explaining today's events clearly.

Upon learning that the person who poisoned his son was none other than his own wife, Zhou Xueshi slapped her without hesitation.

Little Wang cried and claimed it wasn't her. Zhou Xueshi didn't believe it either, after all, she had been so kind to Zhou Ming before. But after hearing what Jia said, he realized she did have a motive.

Upon hearing Xiao Wang insist on her denial, An Xue Tang let out a cold laugh. Just then, Che Wu had found a doctor and brought him back.

First, everyone put aside the matter of the murderer and stared at the doctor as he administered poison to Zhou Ming.

After Zhou Ming coughed up a lot, he woke up after a while.

Zhou Chengfei asked him many questions, and learned that since last night, Zhou Ming had only eaten what Xiao Wang had given him and water. Now everything was clear.

However, Xiao Wang still insisted and refused to admit it. At this time, An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly and suddenly said:

"Mr. Xiao Wang, even now, do you still want to deny it Don't you remember, the poison in your pocket hasn't been thrown away yet."

Little Wang's face changed drastically, and he subconsciously touched the pouch hanging at his waist, "Impossible."ch other better."An Xuetang smiled, "I understand."She naturally understood why Xiaoqin was treating her this way. After all, the last time they met, Xiaoqin had misunderstood her and Jiang Qingyang's...
