"My concubine never asked Mei Xiang to go to Tongshou Hall to buy medicine, and she had no idea that she would give or take medicine privately with a palace slave." Liu Cairen burst into tears and rushed towards the emperor, but was kicked over by Duan Mulang.
"Your Majesty, you must trust me." Seeing that there was no hope for help, Liu Cairen turned to Concubine Lin Xian and said, "Concubine Xian, I have always behaved myself in Xianfu Palace. Please save me."
Bang bang bang!
Liu Cairen kept kowtowing, with blood oozing out from his forehead.
"What are you asking me for!" Lin Xianfei half-covered her lips with a handkerchief, her eyes cold and unwavering: "What does today's matter have to do with me?"
"Mei Xiang!" Liu Cairen gritted his teeth: "It's all that bitch Mei Xiang! Your Majesty, it's all the evil that that little bitch Mei Xiang did on her own initiative. Just take her down and beat her to death, and be sure to clear her name."
.”
Lin Chu looked at Lin Moran with half-squinted eyes. The man looked calm, gentle and innocent, like an outsider watching Liu Cairen's madness indifferently.
"Su Mu." Duanmu frowned: "Go to Xianfu Palace to capture Mei Xiang and bring her for questioning!"
Su Mu took the order and left. He turned around without much effort, and everything he saw was heavy: "Your Majesty, Mei Xiang has committed suicide by drowning herself. When the servants arrived, the body was already cold."
Another one died?!
Duanmulang's face was as dark as water, and he was busy in the deep palace. It was enough that the snow wolf hurt someone, but now all the witnesses related to the case...are dead!
Where is his face?
"I found this in the Meixiang Room." Su Mu waved his hand, and the young eunuch knelt beside him holding a tray.
"This is Mei Xiang's confession." Su Mu pointed to the tray and said, "Liu Cairen's father worked in the Ministry of Household Affairs. During the official examination last month, he was found guilty of embezzlement by Lin Shoufu and was imprisoned. Liu Cairen hated his father so much.
Master Fu also wanted to let him experience the grief of losing a loved one, so she ordered Mei Xiang to set up a poisonous plan with Dushuangcao to kill Lin Chu. She was convinced that Lin Chu would die, but she could not bear the condemnation of her conscience, so she wrote
Write a confession and commit suicide."
"How could... be like this?" Liu Cairen hesitated: "I... I... never let her do this. Why do you want to accuse me unjustly?"
"Liu Cairen, you are so favored by the Emperor that you actually do such scandalous things in private. I have really misjudged you!"
Lin Moran sighed and knelt at Duanmulang's feet: "Your Majesty, Liu Cairen is the concubine in my concubine's palace. She made a mistake, and I also made mistakes that I did not investigate. Please punish me."
"Xian Fei, please get up." Duanmulang personally supported Lin Moran: "This matter has nothing to do with you."
"Liu Cairen, her actions are evil, and her heart is worthy of death." He shouted coldly: "From today on, she will be demoted to a commoner and sentenced to death! All the people who are accompanying her will be sent to the Shenxing Department for torture. If anything is found to be inappropriate, they will be sentenced to death.
, to clarify the canonical punishment!”
"No!" Liu Cairen yelled hysterically: "I was unjustly accused, I didn't do anything I did! Someone wants to frame me, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Su Mu winked at the eunuch beside him, and someone immediately stepped forward to block Liu Cai's mouth and nose and dragged her away forcefully.
As soon as the farce came to an end, Lin Chu quietly looked at Lin Moran. In the deserted corner, the man let out a long sigh of relief, and there was an imperceptible coldness in his eyes. She could not escape her involvement in this matter today, but now she can escape unscathed.
Really...unwilling to do so.
"Brother Chu." Duanmu Yan flew towards her like a flamboyant butterfly and stood half a foot in front of her, with a thin blush on his cheeks: "How did I behave just now?"
Lin Chu sincerely praised: "That's right. When did you get involved with Zong Zhengfu?"
Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't seen Lin Zhi in a while, and I don't know what he is busy with.
"I..." Duanmuyan's eyes darkened: "Actually, I have been... locked up in Zongzheng Mansion these past few days!"
