C2781 Imperial Concubine Wu Appeared

"I know that all of you are very concerned about the cause of my death, Royal Brother. You should know about it as well." Princess Qi said, "But I don't need to tell you about this. Someone will tell you."1

Everyone was puzzled. If Princess Qi did not say it, then who said it? Could it be that Princess Qi had other people helping her?

That's right, if there were no other people helping her, as a weak girl, Princess Qi... Not to mention investigating the cause of the late Emperor's death, it was uncertain whether she could successfully return to the capital. It seemed that there was indeed someone protecting Princess Qi. It was unknown whether this person was sent by the previous emperor or by the Fengjue Country.

Clearly, these people misunderstood Princess Qi's intentions. They thought that Princess Qi did not investigate the cause of the death of the previous Emperor. It was someone else, so Princess Qi herself was not very clear about the details. So she planned to let the person who investigated this matter explain in detail.

However, the person who walked up to the main hall next made everyone very surprised because the other person was not the person beside Princess Qi. Instead, it was a person they were very familiar with. This person was Noble Consort Wu, who had suddenly disappeared!

Seeing Concubine Wu again, everyone in the main hall was shocked because at this moment, Noble Consort Wu's condition was not good. Her entire body seemed to be dispirited. At the same time, her body emitted a deathly aura, as if she had nothing to live for.

When everyone saw Noble Consort Wu appear in the hall in such a way, they immediately discussed in a low voice. They did not know what was going on with Consort Wu. Didn't Princess Qi say that she would call someone to explain the cause of the death of the previous Emperor? Why did no one else appear? Instead, it was Noble Consort Wu who appeared?

Could it be that the person who wanted to explain the death of the previous Emperor to them in detail was Noble Consort Wu?!

Many people already had this kind of speculation in their hearts. Although... They all felt that this was quite inconceivable, perhaps this was the truth. Otherwise, why would Consort Wu use such a method at a time like this? What if she appeared in the main hall?

"I know that everyone has doubts in their hearts. Then, let Consort Wu come and help everyone resolve their doubts now." Princess Qi said.

It was really her!

Initially, everyone was only guessing in their hearts. Now that they heard what Princess Qi said, they were finally sure that she was going to clear their doubts and tell them. They The person who really caused the late emperor's death was actually Imperial Concubine Wu!

Many people had already realized that this matter was not simple. Some people even had some bold guesses in their hearts. Princess Qi's sudden appearance, Noble Consort Wu's strange behavior, Wu Yan's disappearance, and so on were all linked together. They had to make some guesses about this matter.

"Noble Consort Wu, tell everyone how I, Royal Brother, died." Princess Qi said to Noble Consort Wu.

Noble Consort Wu first looked indifferently at Princess Qi above, where Princess Qi was. It should have belonged to her, since her son became the Emperor. Every time in the court, she would follow and where she was. It was where Princess Qi was. Every time she stood in that position... She had a very satisfied feeling in her heart.

Of course, she also felt flustered. She knew how that position came about. She had personally killed her husband, who loved her dearly. In fact, during this period of time, she had often had nightmares, which made her feel very terrified.

Now that Princess Qi had come to find her father and told her about the true cause of death of the late Emperor, while feeling hopeless, Noble Consort Wu also felt a sense of relief in her heart.

Of course, it wasn't that Noble Consort Wu hadn't thought of going back on her words in the hall. After all, she believed that the ministers in the hall... There were more people who were close to the Wu family, and Princess Qi had already married the Fengjue Country's prince. In name, she was no longer a member of the Great Lu Dynasty. Therefore... Noble Consort Wu believed that as long as she went back on her words and accused Princess Qi instead... In that case, there would still be many people who would believe her and stand on her side.

However, when she woke up this morning, Huang Feng did some tricks. After letting her have a taste of what it meant to live a life worse than death, she suddenly gave up on the idea of biting Princess Qi back in the main hall. Because, even if Princess Qi and the man behind her were eliminated, she was also finished, or even more miserable than death.

And Consort Wu, who had personally killed her husband and was betrayed by her father. In fact, she didn't want to live anymore. She didn't care about everything around her anymore. She didn't want to care about her father's life or death. She didn't want to care about what would happen to the Wu family. She could only die now and cooperate with Princess Qi to tell the truth. She did not want to experience the feeling of living a life worse than death.

Because of this, after hearing Princess Qi's words, Noble Consort Wu turned her head to look at the people in the hall. From the eyes of those people, she saw all kinds of emotions. Some were worried, some heaved a sigh of relief, and some were gloating. And so on and so forth.

Towards these complicated gazes, Noble Consort Wu did not want to know the meaning behind these gazes. She faced the crowd and slowly said, "The previous emperor did not die from an illness, but was killed by me personally!"

Hua!

Noble Consort Wu's words caused an uproar in the hall. Even though some people already had some sort of speculation after seeing Noble Consort Wu's palace. However, when they heard what she said, they were still very shocked. Clearly, this matter had indeed exceeded their expectations.

Just like Princess Qi, everyone understood that the former emperor doted on Noble Consort Wu. Furthermore, the former emperor had expressed it in front of these ministers more than once. It could be said that he wanted to appoint Noble Consort Wu as the Empress. Although there were many women in the previous emperor's harem, the one that he doted on the most was undoubtedly Imperial Concubine Wu.

And now, Imperial Concubine Wu said that the former emperor was killed by her. How could this not shock everyone? Even those people who had already guessed earlier were currently as shocked as the others.

And after Princess Qi heard Noble Consort Wu's words, she also heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She was really a bit afraid that Noble Consort Wu would not cooperate.

Although she could completely kill Noble Consort Wu and Wu Yan in secret, to take revenge for her own Royal Brother. But if that was the case... The real cause of her death would be buried underground. No one would know. This made Princess Qi unable to accept it. She wanted to let others know the cause of Royal Brother's death. She couldn't let Royal Brother die without knowing why.

And now that Imperial Concubine Wu admitted this matter, Princess Qi let out a sigh of relief. She had finally gotten justice for Royal Brother.

Of course, Princess Qi also knew that in this matter, it was all thanks to Huang Feng's help. Otherwise, Noble Consort Wu might not have been so cooperative.
