Xie Zhixing didn't beat around the bush and said directly:
"Give me the bell."
Yun Jiao was ready to negotiate with the Emperor, but the fourth sentence he said after entering unexpectedly was to ask for the evidence.
She blinked.
She originally thought the Emperor would comfort her a bit, like in TV dramas. After all, she's somewhat favored now. Shouldn't the Emperor embrace her first thing upon entering, offering a "my love, you've been frightened" and "I will make those who harmed you pay" package?
A little eunuch beside her held a tray and gestured for her to place the bell on it to avoid directly touching the evidence. Yun Jiao handed it over without hesitation — the highest judge in the harem is the Emperor. If he wants to let it go lightly, it's futile to list all the evidence.
In the entire harem, the person who least needs to destroy evidence is the Emperor.
