Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 287: Shuangxi betrays his own people; Shuangxi accuses Concubine Chun

Gao Xiyue gasped: "Sister, who wants to harm me...and my child?"

Ruyi held her hand and said, "Don't worry, I will investigate thoroughly and will not let anyone harm you or your child."

Ruyi had instructed the people in Xianfu Palace not to tell anyone about what happened today.

She asked Rong Pei to put the cloth doll away, and after comforting Gao Xiyue, she returned to Yikun Palace.

Rong Pei: "Does Your Majesty suspect that Concubine Yi did it?"

Ruyi frowned, "It's also possible that someone in Xianfu Palace had ulterior motives and contacted outsiders to bury this thing under the tree."

"Then how do we check?"

Ruyi: "Let's start by investigating the people in Xianfu Palace. If there's a traitor in Xianfu Palace today, he'll definitely spread the news. Go and have Sanbao keep an eye on it. See if anyone in Xianfu Palace is restless and secretly contacting people outside."

Rong Pei nodded.

Sanbao stayed outside Xianfu Palace for a whole night. When he was about to go back to report, a figure appeared in his sight. However, it was still dark and the light was too dim to see the man's face clearly.

Sanbao followed him all the way to the back door of Zhongcui Palace.

The man looked around first, making sure no one was following him before knocking on the door.

The two exchanged a few words and then parted ways.

When he turned around, Sanbao saw his face clearly, it was Shuangxi!

The person he met was a palace maid beside Concubine Chun. Sanbao couldn't remember her name, but he was sure that he had seen her with Concubine Chun.

When Shuangxi returned to Xianfu Palace, he found himself surrounded by people in the yard.

Gao Xiyue sat on a chair in the corridor.

"Shuangxi, you've really made it. Have I treated you unfairly?"

Shuangxi slammed down on his knees and said, "Master, I know I was wrong!"

He kowtowed repeatedly and begged for mercy.

But there was a frost in Gao Xiyue's eyes.

When Concubine Chun arrived, Shuangxi had already been tortured.

"Concubine Hui, you sent me here in such a hurry just to see this?" Concubine Chun was horrified. What was going on? Wasn't Shuangxi Gao Xiyue's confidant? Why did she beat him like this?

"Noble Concubine Chun, do you really not know what happened, or are you pretending?"

Concubine Chun's face was full of confusion: "Sister Huifei, what do you mean by this? What did I do?"

Gao Xiyue looked at her bewildered face coldly, and couldn't help wondering in her heart: Could it be that someone framed Concubine Chun?

"Yesterday, a cloth doll was found in my palace. My birth date and time were written on it. The most disgusting thing is that there were many silver needles stuck in the doll's belly. Concubine Chun, can you tell me what happened?"

"So...what does this have to do with me?"

Gao Xiyue was amused by her stupidity: "Oh, Concubine Chun, don't say you don't know. Shuangxi has already said it all. Your maid came to him and gave him a lot of benefits, asking him to put that cloth doll in my palace!"

Concubine Chun didn't understand what was going on. It was really like a disaster coming from the sky while you were at home!

"No, how could you just listen to his one-sided story? Why would I do this?"

"Shuangxi is your servant. If you want to collude to harm me, it's not impossible!"

"I have nothing to say."

"Moxin, go and ask the Empress to come over. Wei Yingning, go and ask the Emperor to come over."

Mo Xin and Wei Yingning responded and immediately went to invite the emperor and the queen.

As soon as Hongli stood up, he heard Li Yu come to report that Concubine Hui wanted to ask him to come over for something.
