You'd better be careful. That man's extremely sinister. The moment he said you could testify, he'd already conveyed a message to the emperor: that you had a close relationship with him. No matter what you said later, whether you admitted it or denied it, you'd arouse the emperor's suspicions.
The emperor had always been suspicious by nature. His impression of a woman caught between two brothers certainly wouldn't be very good.
Fortunately, the host had done quite a few things before this, so the emperor still trusted her to some extent.
Su Qiao and the other two happened to meet Eunuch Wei, who was hurrying somewhat, at the courtyard entrance.
Before he could say anything, Su Qiao had already waved her hand. "No need to explain. I'll go to the palace with you."
Eunuch Wei hadn't expected Eldest Miss Su to be so well-informed. Apart from those who had been present, no one knew what had happened in the palace.
But when he thought of her relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he felt it made sense.
After reaching the palace at the fastest possible speed, they went straight to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.
On the way, Eunuch Wei had already given her a general account of the situation without embellishing anything.
There were no irrelevant people in the Eastern Palace's main hall.
The emperor sat in the seat of honor, while Crown Prince Xi Hanzhou knelt stubbornly before him. Four other princes stood in a row behind him, followed by the commanders and deputy commander of the Imperial Guards.
Su Qiao quickly swept her eyes over the scene, saluted the grim-faced emperor in the seat of honor, and then looked coldly at Xi Muyan. "What Dragon Robe? What letters? When have I ever seen those things?"
