The Emperor thought that the Empress's incident must have been orchestrated by outsiders, but surely someone close to the Empress was also involved; after all, no one else could get close to her. It must have been a collusion inside and outside to bring the Empress to such a state, right?
Yet, some of those close to the Empress have been with her for a long time.
Thus, the Emperor had everyone detained and instructed Wang Yin to slowly investigate who might be suspicious.
And now, those serving the Empress are all the Emperor's own people.
The Emperor ordered someone to summon Jie Geng, while he had prepared a warm towel to apply to Li Shuning's eyes.
After all, she had been crying for three days, which made the Emperor somewhat curious; can a person cry for three days?
He even thought it was a miracle that the Empress's eyes were fine.
Jie Geng, upon entering, was quite agitated, especially seeing the Empress sitting there with a gentle smile, her voice choked with emotion.
