Chen Shi had foreseen this day coming and did not look very surprised. He knelt on the ground and said calmly, "Your Majesty, the Empress has a poisonous insect in her womb."
His words were too plain, yet the contents were shockingly extraordinary. For a moment, everyone was speechless.
Even Li Huaixi was stunned; he did not react as strongly as he had initially.
Li Tianze snorted coldly and continued to question, "If you have known about this for so long, why mention it only now?"
Chen Shi remained silent for a long while before slowly saying, "I admit my guilt."
He did not offer a single excuse for himself; although it was an unintentional mistake at first, he indeed harbored different intentions.
Therefore, he willingly accepted his guilt.
Li Tianze's gaze grew darker as he scrutinized him, then finally, he commanded, "Take him away and lock him in the Imperial Prison!"
