Rong Jinghua was shocked and wanted to chase after him, “Father, please have mercy, Father!”

Kang Fujiang could not stand it anymore. He came over and stopped Rong Jinghua. He kindly advised, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, you can’t be muddle-headed. His Majesty is already showing mercy by not bickering with you about what you said just now. If you dare to spout nonsense again, no matter who comes, they won’t be able to save you!”

Rong Jinghua looked even more anxious. She looked at Kang Fujiang and said,

“Eunuch Kang, please help me. I want to see mother and ask what is going on.”

Kang Fujiang saw Rong Jinghua’s anxious expression and advised, “Your

Highness the Crown Prince, no one can help you with this. The Empress

‘matter is already a foregone conclusion.”

Rong Jinghua’s expression turned extremely unsightly. His body trembled as if he was convulsing, “No, that won’t happen. I don’t believe that father would be so heartless..”

Before Rong Jinghua could finish his sentence, she suddenly clutched her chest in pain. She groaned and fell to the ground. Soon, she fainted.

This scene frightened everyone present. Kang Fujiang and Peng Zhou quickly supported Rong Jinghua.

“Quickly call the imperial physician, His Highness the Crown Prince has fainted!”

Soon, the news of Rong Jinghua fainting from grief in front of Yangxin Hall spread like a gust of wind through the streets and alleys of the capital.

After Rong Xiaotian learned of this matter, he was still soft-hearted towards his son. The empress’ poisoning did not implicate him. Not only that, Rong Xiaotian also instructed Rong Jinghua to return to the residence to recuperate and not to waste her energy on these matters.

When Gu Qingxue heard the news, she was in Lotus Fragrance Garden detoxifying the old general and the Qi family.

The detoxification had just come to an end. Gu Qingxue was carrying the sleeping Little Gu King in her arms. She looked at Musical Note, who had come to report, and smiled. “The Crown Prince’s drowsiness was just right, attracting His Majesty’s pity. His Majesty’s heart must have been broken.”

“If I don’t faint, how will this matter end? After all, the Crown Prince did not intend to enter the Cold Palace with the Empress. Only by fainting could this matter end and obtain the Emperor’s favor. I never knew that the Crown Prince was such a scheming person. Indeed, you can’t judge a book by its cover.”Old General Qi smiled calmly. Even though he said that, his expression remained indifferent.

In the struggle for imperial power, there were too many things that involved mutual deception. At his age, he had seen countless similar things and was already used to it.

“Granduncle is right.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, she stroked the soft fur of Little King of Venomous Worms in her arms. As if she had thought of something, she looked at Musical Note and asked, “Speaking of which, does the empress mean that she doesn’t remember anything?”

Qin Yun nodded and said, “Yes, according to the Eempress, she was wronged. She said that she didn’t remember what happened at all, but later on, for some reason, she was willing to confess.”

“She didn’t want to confess at first, probably because she really doesn’t remember anything. However, he probably pleaded guilty later because he was worried that his only son would be implicated, so he was reluctant.” Gu

Qingxue lowered her eyes and said indifferently, “I’ve long heard that there are Gu Masters who can use Gu techniques to erase some people’s memories. In the past, I never believed it, but today, it seems to make some sense..”
