Guide to Failing as a Full-Level Green Tea-Chapter 41 - I Cant Believe It

Shen Roujia originally felt a stifling anger in her heart, but it now dissipated quite a bit.

“Mm.”

In the Morning Glow Palace, a crowd of people knelt on the floor.

Even Consort Jia, with her large belly, was kneeling.

“It’s all my fault for arguing with my sister. It’s entirely my fault.”

The Emperor, busy with state affairs, was reluctant to get involved in the harem’s disputes.

“Just arguing could make you fall? That’s nonsense!”

Consort Jia shivered in fear.

“It wasn’t me…”

Rong Shuyao suddenly knelt on the ground. “Your Majesty, I saw with my own eyes that the Crown Princess pushed Consort Shu.”

The Emperor glanced at Rong Shuyao. “What did you see? Rong Shuyao, what were you doing at Little Sparrow Forest?”

Rong Shuyao nodded, her gaze slightly panicked. “I… I was following the Crown Princess. At the time, I thought she was going to mediate between the two concubines, but during the argument, she pushed Consort Shu!”

As soon as Shen Roujia stepped in, she coldly spoke up, “You’re lying!”

Everyone turned to look at her.

Xu Zening’s frown deepened.

“Shuyao, do not speak recklessly.”

Shen Roujia slightly bowed. “Father Emperor, Your Highness.”

Xu Zening glanced at her, his eyes showing a hint of pity.

Shen Roujia looked away and addressed the room.

“Father Emperor, I have no reason to harm Consort Shu. Moreover, I had no idea Rong Shuyao went to Little Sparrow Forest.”

The Emperor suddenly turned to Xu Zening. “Ning’er, did you know about this?”

Xu Zening looked troubled.

“Except for Xiao Fu, who is always with the Crown Princess, everyone else was arranged to follow in the carriage.”

Shen Roujia let out a cold laugh. “Your Highness’s arrangements were thoughtful, but unfortunately, I couldn’t accept Rong Shuyao’s service.”

Rong Shuyao started kowtowing again. “Your Majesty, I saw it with my own eyes!”

She hesitated. “Moreover, the Crown Princess has always been jealous of me. How could she easily accept…”

I can’t believe it. Shen Roujia was exasperated. She barely kept her composure and looked up with teary eyes, “What is she talking about, Your Highness?”

Feigning ignorance, Shen Roujia threw the ball back to Xu Zening.

Xu Zening’s frown deepened.

“Shuyao, mind your words!”

Rong Shuyao, sobbing, continued, “I have always been loyal to Your Highness. If it weren’t for… if it weren’t for that incident, the Crown Princess wouldn’t have such ill intentions.”

The Emperor sensed something amiss. “Are you saying the Crown Princess had ulterior motives in harming the royal heir?”

Rong Shuyao nodded, crying. “Yes.”

Shen Roujia stared at Rong Shuyao, as if waiting to see what else she could say.

Mistaking Shen Roujia’s silence for defeat, Rong Shuyao lifted her chin triumphantly. “Because Consort Shu had evidence of the Crown Princess’s secret communications with an outsider!”

The crowd was instantly in an uproar, shocked by the revelation.

Shen Roujia, however, relaxed her frown.

Gracefully, she knelt before the Emperor. “Father Emperor, if I am to be accused, let it be done justly. I would never disgrace the royal family.”

“Since Rong Shuyao has brought this up, let it be investigated thoroughly. If there is evidence, I will accept any punishment.”

Rong Shuyao’s eyes gleamed with excitement. “Your Majesty, I have evidence!”

Shen Roujia calmly interrupted, “But… if this matter has nothing to do with me, I ask Father Emperor to punish the wicked accordingly.”
