Everyone was curious about this.
Wei Qing laughed as she took off the empress's embroidered shoes from dog general's mouth and gave Mo Qi a meaningful glance.
Mo Qi understood tacitly and forcibly took off the eunuch's shoes.
Wei Qing took out the silver needles and used the white silk handkerchief that she brought along with him to dig out some dark brown powder from the gaps of the shoes.
The powder, when matched with the white silk handkerchief, was even more eye-catching.
Everyone stretched their necks and stared at the silk handkerchief.
”What is this?” Old Emperor frowned and asked.
Wei Qing glanced at the empress. ”This is meat powder. That day, I sprinkled this powder on the doorstep of the Compendium Pavilion and on the doorstep.
And right now, the Compendium Pavilion is still able to see the eunuch's footprints. If anyone has any doubts, they can take the eunuch's shoes for a check and it will be very clear. ”
The Queen's eyes rapidly turned. She didn't go to the Compendium Pavilion … It was a rebuttal.
”Wei Qing, I have never been to the Compendium Pavilion, it seems like you are purposely framing me.”
Wei Qing let out a cold laugh. She had already reached the edge of the cliff, yet she still hadn't reined him in.
”Empress, do you dare to say that you didn't summon this eunuch to your Yi Kun Palace?”
Things had already gotten to this point, and he still did not know how to repent. Wei Qing was truly angry, and even changed her respectful title.
The empress dowager and Old Emperor looked at the empress with increasingly disappointed expressions!
The empress's heart skipped a beat. ”Your majesty, so many people have walked past here. It's hard to say if chenqie might accidentally bump into them!”
Wei Qing sighed, looking at the empress with a complicated expression. ”Empress, this eunuch only appeared in the imperial garden after you came here. If you insist on saying that, then you can check whether or not the soles of the palace maids by your side are stained with this minced meat powder and judge whether or not this eunuch has appeared in your Yi Kun Palace. ”
The Queen's mind was already filled with countless bombers that were bombarding the place in turn. Now that Wei Qing had said so much in one go, she could not even think of anything else as she rubbed her forehead with all her might.
”Wei Qing, did Prince Chu order you to slander me like this?” The Queen was furious.
Seeing that the empress still hadn't repented, Old Emperor slapped the armrest of the chair. ”Men, send the empress back to Yi Kun Palace.”
If this were to continue, it would only be losing the face of the entire imperial family.
Hearing that, all the soul in the Queen's body seemed to have been pulled away as she begged Old Emperor to believe her with her head hanging low.
When the Empress was sent back to the Yi Kun Palace, the news of the Old Emperor spread throughout the entire palace.
If anyone dared to speak carelessly about the Imperial Gardens just now, they would move their heads carefully.
Xiao Qingqian looked at Wei Qing who was crossing her legs, and her gaze couldn't help but become somewhat doting on her.
”Is that the meatloaf in your little porcelain bottle?”
Wei Qing nodded.
”But how can you be sure that some animal won't come here to lick?” Xiao Qingqian played with her fingers.
”It's very simple. There are also other powders mixed in the minced meat. Animals have a sharper sense of smell than humans and they are naturally resistant to dangerous foods. Do you think that even if animals pass by, they would lick the meat?”
”Smart!” Xiao Qingqian pinched Wei Qing's nose.
