Just as Xiahou Rui felt like his whole body was uncomfortable and that he was about to explode, his body suddenly felt a wave of coolness pa.s.s through.

That, Xiahou Rui knew, was the antidote working.

Once his mind was cleared, he felt his body coated with a cold sweat.

When the hysterical powder first started working, he had tried to use his inner strength to suppress it, but couldn’t.

If he hadn’t had the antidote, tonight he would’ve &h.e.l.lip;

His eyes became incredibly dark, once he knew the person who tried to frame and harm his empress-mother, he definitely wouldn’t let them go!

It seems like he had became too virtuous to the point where this mastermind thought he was an easy target to bully?

“Emperor-father,” He slowly raised his head, his eyes dark and calm, not allowing any threads of anxiousness through.

He only raised his head in a manner that was too debasing or too overbearing, his back straight, his whole body grave and stern.

When the emperor saw, even he too, slowly cooled down.

It had to be said, he quite liked his second prince, and it was only him amongst the other princes, who could keep calm and composed, thinking everything through and doing everything slowly. He was the only prince who was the most alike him back then.

“Rui’er, what do you want to say?”

“Emperor-father, subject-son knows this isn’t the time to speak up for empress-mother, otherwise emperor-father will think that this subject-son is being biased. But for a hundred dao, filial is to come first so if subject-son just let empress-mother suffer this injustice, that would be unfilial. So even if it makes emperor-father unhappy, subject-son has to speak up.

If this was really done by empress-mother, why would she let someone use such an expensive snow silkworm silk to make this voodoo doll? Once it’s discovered, wouldn’t this clearly be telling everyone that it was empress-mother who did it?”

After Xiahou Rui finished speaking, everyone’s hearts suddenly lit up.

Was this affair too easy?

No one would be dumb enough to dig their own graves.

The emperor silently thought over Xiahou Rui’s words, and calmly thought then slowly let go of the hands that were gripping the empress’ lapels.

The empress then let a sigh of relief, shakingly kneeled down and her eyes couldn’t help but redden, but her lips tightened together without saying a word.

She had been with the emperor ever since he was the crown-prince and had always been loyal to him.

But for a consort Ning, he could constantly doubt her, and even now &h.e.l.lip;

Thinking about the killing intent in the emperor’s eyes, her heart felt cold.

She lowered her eyes, hiding the gloominess in her eyes, in the end, she had overestimated her place in his heart.

The emperor didn’t say anything so no one dared to get up, fearing that their words would anger the emperor, and at that time, they would have no chance to redeem themselves.

Lou Qingwu indifferently kneeled in the corned, but her eyes soundlessly swept past everyone in the room, right until they fell on imperial consort Rong and the midwife, then her lips faintly crept into a thin and cold smile.

Finally, she swept past imperial consort Rong and onto the midwife.

She saw the midwife rub her hands together every now and then, sneaking glances at imperial consort Rong with eyes that flickered and showed unease, and eyes that occasionally flicked to inside the palace hall.

Lou Qingwu’s eyes followed through to the opened palace hall and inside.

With only an eye, her body suddenly went stiff.

The face that was carefree and calm changed in a moment to become sinister and frightening.

Her thin white hands cracked as they formed fists, her mind flashing red that threatened to swallow her whole.

Her eyes seemed to have lost their soul as they become nothing, uneasy but in the next moment, it seemed as if a ghost had risen from the underworld, those clear and simple eyes slowly becoming encroached by a darkness that turned them dark, sinister and cold.

That midwife suddenly felt chilly eyes on her as she felt coldness crawl up her spine, she couldn’t help but shiver.

But as she turned around and looked around, she couldn’t find those eyes.

TL note

I’d feel scared to have Qingwu’s eyes on me too.
