He didn’t reply but Lou Qingwu didn’t mind.
She only continued to slowly rub her wrist, her soft and sticky voice that seemed unreal floated, “... It’d react when the empress is found to be the voodoo doll’s perpetrator.”
“En?!” Xiahou Rui had first been taken in by her soft voice so he didn’t hear her too clearly but when he finally did, his face suddenly changed, “What did you just say?!”
What did she mean, his empress-mother was the perpetrator?!
Suddenly realising something, Xiahou Rui’s face changed again!
He furrowed his brows as he turned to look at the worried empress not too far away, she looked as if she didn’t know she was about to be framed for a crime she didn’t commit, her eyes and eyebrows showing her virtuous nature.
But with what had just happened, no one would believe that she was genuinely worried for consort Ning.
Just a few months ago, consort Ning would rely on the child inside of her stomach to provoke his empress-mother, mock and deride her.
At that time, he had coincidentally just come in to Kuning palace, so …
He didn’t think that the consort Ning who looked innocent and naive, would actually be a vicious and merciless shrew, that she would actually fall and nearly miscarry, then frame him and his empress-mother.
Even though his emperor-father believed him, he knew that it also left a mark on his father’s heart.
And if this time …
It’d be hard for his empress-mother to escape unscathed.
Furthermore, thinking about the hysterical powder planted on his body, connecting the dots, his eyes became steely cold, to the point where it could freeze people.
Exactly who was it, that had planned this months in advance?
Firstly, they had buried a line of suspicion deep down, just to wait for an event to set it off, to explode everything and make them all be completely buried in the aftermath.
This time, he had been … careless.
Lou Qingwu carefully and slowly a.n.a.lysed the emotions in his eyes and knew that he understood where it all began.
Then, she soundlessly retrieved a white based porcelain medicinal bottle from her bosom, and opened its lid.
Suddenly, a plum blossom scent entered the nose and she poured out a pill to give to Xiahou Rui.
Xiahou Rui froze, “What is this?”
“If you don’t want their plan to succeed, eat it.”
“...” Xiahou Rui looked at her deeply but in the end, didn’t ask anything as he ate it.
Lou Qingwu raised a brow, “You’re not scared that it could be poison?”
Xiahou Rui shook his head as he looked at her, his eyes so deep you couldn’t see the bottom.
He didn’t believe that she would poison him, this type of believe was a kind of intuition, something that even he couldn’t explain properly.
Even without knowing why, he just knew that he could believe her.
“Oh?” Lou Qingwu faintly narrowed her eyes, but didn’t say anything.
Only her ears twitched a bit as she knew that it would be about time.
The people who should come would be coming soon, so she took a few steps back and pulled some distance between her and Xiahou Rui.
And at the same time, the imperial guards who had been dispatched had come back, hurriedly, and with them, was a senior maid.
When they saw the emperor, they all kneeled to the ground, looking uneasily and frightened.
“What did you discover?” The emperor’s expression was vicious, as if he would drag out anyone who the guard called out immediately to execute them.
The imperial guard commander uneasily looked at the ground, almost feeling that person’s gaze on them even when they had their head down, “This subordinate, this subordinate found something.”
“What did you find?”
“ … The cloth used to st.i.tch the voodoo doll is snow silkworm silk.”
“Snow silkworm silk?” Hearing that name, the originally calm empress’ expression changed completely.
She couldn’t help but yell, “What nonsense are you spouting?”
How could it be snow silkworm silk?
“What does that mean?” The emperor looked at the empress deeply, his eyes becoming dangerous and cold.
The imperial guard commander’s hands that were pressed on the ground couldn’t help but tighten, his forehead was starting to bead with cold sweat.
He also felt that there was something suspicious about this, because this voodoo affair was too easy to investigate, so easy that he felt suspicious.

TL note
I felt pretty anxious translating these few chapters. You can really feel the tension.
Leave a comment and to see how the emperor reacts to this xx I'm uploading a selfie tomorrow because I crave attention am celebrating a belated 100k views. It seems like Why not soar is more popular than Thousand Face? Share This:
