Chapter 190 Doubt
It has been a long time since the emperor and empress had breakfast together peacefully. The rare warmth made them feel good. Although they didn't say anything, the atmosphere was very harmonious.

However, this harmony only lasted for less than a quarter of an hour, and Si Li entered with a solemn expression.

When the queen saw it, the smile on her mouth faded. She put down the porridge bowl in her hand, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, "Your Majesty, Mr. Si is here."

The emperor raised his head, "What's wrong?"

After seeing the ceremony for the two of them, Si Li glanced at the queen, hesitant.

The queen felt more and more uncomfortable, but she had to show a considerate look on her face. She turned her head to look at the emperor, and said softly: "It seems that Mr. Si has something important to tell his majesty, go down, you are free. Then come and talk with my concubine, the state affairs are important."

The emperor nodded in relief, got up and said: "The empress is still sensible, I will go first, and I will come to see you in the evening."

He held the queen's hand and patted the back of her hand lightly, and the queen smiled softly.

When the emperor walked away with Si Li, the smile on the queen's face disappeared completely.

She watched the emperor's back, and her heart was devastated. As a husband, she did not hide anything from the eunuch who was close to her, but she had to guard against herself, the wife who was being married by a matchmaker.

His eldest son is not valued by him, even if he is outstanding, it is difficult to get a word of praise from him, and Concubine An's son of a bitch has been doted on since he was a child!

Thinking about it, she clenched her hands bitterly, and her long nails even got into her palms, but she didn't realize it.

……

The emperor walked out of the queen's territory, told the others to go a little further, and whispered to Si Li: "Tell me, what happened?"

Si Li guessed that the people around couldn't hear him, so he said: "Your Majesty, just now the governor of the Jingzhao Mansion went to the palace to ask for an audience, and went to the imperial study room. I didn't see you, so the servant came to look for you...I found it in the alley in the south of the city this morning. A corpse, the deceased is the groom of the Sixth Prince's residence."

The emperor's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Si Li sharply, "What did you say?"

The moment the door of the imperial study room was opened, Sun Cai's whole body trembled.

He subconsciously straightened his back, turned his head and looked over, and saw the emperor striding in with a dark face.Si Li stood at the door and closed the door without coming in. Only he and the emperor were left in the imperial study.

Sun Cai was suffocated for a while, and what was even more suffocating was that the emperor asked straight to the point: "You may be sure that person is the groom of the Sixth Prince's residence? How do you know a groom?"

Sun Cai lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story, but I will make a long story short. I met the groom at the horse market in the west of the city and had a little quarrel, so I was very impressed. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can summon him." The owner of the horse market, he knows about this."

The emperor didn't quite believe it at first, but seeing that Sun Cai didn't look like he was lying, and there were still people who could testify, he was more than half convinced, and this kind of thing could be found out as soon as he checked it.

His eyes were heavy, with mixed feelings in his heart, "Sun Cai, what do you think of this matter?"

Sun Cai slandered, I haven't started to investigate yet!What do you think?Besides, when the prince is involved, this matter must not be simple!

But he couldn't tell the truth at this time, so he hesitated and said: "This... I don't have any clue, most people would not attack a groom, maybe it's the enemy seeking revenge—"

After he finished this nonsense, the emperor frowned, and he immediately changed his words: "However, it is not ruled out that he may have known something he shouldn't know, and was silenced."
