Liu Qingqing trembled hard, unable to say a word. She was scared, and her whole face was pale.
It was only after a long time that she regained her senses and knelt in front of the emperor with a thud; her voice choked with tears. "Emperor, it was Sister Gu... It was Sister Gu who gave the medicine to me. She said that this medicine… It would make Fourth Prince fall in love with me. I love him so much. So, I listened to Sister Gu. I beg for your mercy to spare my life. "
Liu Qingqing's words made the emperor shocked; his body became stiff. He clenched his fists tightly, and his breathing grew heavy as if he could not believe that Liu Qingqing would do this kind of thing.
He always had a good feeling about Liu Qingqing. She was an excellent girl and the young lady of a noble family. Besides, the Liu family was deeply respected by him. Otherwise, he would not have let Qing'er marry Liu Qingqing as a concubine.
