Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 212 The counterattack fails

The palace maid composed herself and seemed to have made up her mind: "She was fine when she left my room, and she didn't take any poison at all. She was just worried that the princess would find out about what she had eavesdropped on, and she would be killed. "

The palace maid paused and said with tears in her eyes: "I entered the palace with Yue'er, but I didn't expect that her worries would come true, and she would indeed bring about a murder for herself."

Seeing that the opportunity had come, the Queen Mother took advantage of the situation and said: "Su Ying, if she hadn't listened to Yue'er tonight and was afraid that something might happen to Yue'er and found the Ai family, the Ai family would not have come here. You failed to extract a confession with torture, and you actually killed innocent people with poison." That person. The bottle in your hand must be poison!"

Su Ying's face was calm and without any disturbance: "The Queen Mother is really kind-hearted. A little palace maid is worthy of the Queen Mother's labor late at night."

The Queen Mother said casually: "It's about the granddaughter of the Ai family. How can the Ai family not care about it? So, you admitted to poisoning the sun?"

"I'm not the one who poisoned the sun, and I'm not the one who poisoned Yue'er!" Su Ying answered neatly.

The Queen Mother looked stern, pointed at Su Ying and said sternly: "Bold Su Ying, so many pairs of eyes are looking at you, and you are still making excuses."

Su Ying's eyes darkened: "The Queen Mother kept saying that Yue'er heard my conversation with Bi Liu and said that I wanted to poison the sun."

"Poisoning the blazing sun to rescue Xiao Feng who is in prison, but the Queen Mother clearly knows that Yue'er is dead. There is no evidence for what this palace maid said, but here she calls me sophistry. Isn't it true for the Queen Mother to say this? contradiction."

The Queen Mother pointed at the trembling palace maid who was kneeling on the ground and said loudly: "She is a witness, and the medicine bottle in your hand is the physical evidence, as well as the injuries on Yue'er's body. These are the best evidence. The identity of the Ai family is The master of the harem will exercise the rights of the Ai family today, come on, take down Su Ying!"

The eunuchs behind the Queen Mother were about to move. Shen Yu stepped forward and looked at the person opposite with cold eyes. The eunuchs did not dare to step forward for a while.

Su Ying's eyes turned to the Queen Mother and said coldly: "The Queen Mother wants to take me away tonight, but I'm afraid she won't be able to do so!"

"You are quite confident!" The Queen Mother smiled slowly, but the next moment she said coldly: "It's a pity, no one can save you tonight!"

Su Ying's expression darkened, and then she laughed: "Father, can't you do it too?"

Before Su Ying finished speaking, a bright yellow figure came toward the courtyard surrounded by people: "Why is the Queen here so late?"

While the palace people were saluting, Situ Lin walked slowly. He bowed to the Queen Mother and said, "Greetings to the Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother did not expect Situ Lin to come. She originally wanted to take the opportunity tonight to take Su Ying back to Yongshou Palace. As long as she entered Yongshou Palace, she would have many ways to make Su Ying confess.

The Queen Mother calmed down and her face immediately looked better: "What is the Emperor doing here so late?"

"Did Princess Jin send someone to tell me that the murderer who poisoned the sun would be caught tonight? I came over to take a look, but I didn't expect my mother to be here. Su Ying, tell me what's going on?"

"Yes, Father." Su Ying bowed slightly and said, "My son has already found out the method of committing the crime of the poisoner, and today he set up a trap to lure Yue'er into the trap with the illusion of being poisoned again by Scorching Sun."

"I didn't expect that she actually went to the Yongshou Palace. Just when I was questioning her, she was suddenly poisoned and died. At this moment, the Queen Mother suddenly came, and with this palace maid, she insisted on accusing my son of poisoning the sun. I am really wronged."

The Queen Mother's pupils shrank, and then she realized that she had fallen into Su Ying's scheme. It turned out that she had already informed the Emperor about this.

Her mind changed and she looked angrily at the palace maid kneeling on the ground: "You are so bold and mean, you slandered Princess Jin. If the emperor hadn't come here today, the Ai family would have almost believed your lies and said, why do you want to marry Princess Jin?" Aijia lied."

The palace maid reacted instantly and kowtowed: "You deserve to die, slave. Yue'er said these words to slave. I didn't know that she was trying to frame the Queen Mother and alienate the relationship between the Queen Mother and Princess Jin. It's all my fault, slave." I don’t know people well, please spare my life, Queen Mother!”

The emperor's gaze spread over the palace maid who was kneeling on the ground. The palace maid was already so frightened that her body was shaking like chaff. She must admit her crime today, otherwise it would be difficult for her to die with the Queen Mother's methods.

The emperor walked slowly to the palace maid and asked coldly: "Do you know how serious the crime of framing the princess and covering up the murderer is?"

The palace maid was trembling all over and was speechless for a long time. Cold sweat dripped down her face as pale as paper and fell to the ground.

Seeing that the palace maid was hesitant, the Queen Mother said indifferently: "Think carefully, if the Ai family finds out that you dare to lie again, the punishment of gluttony is not something a weak woman like you can bear, and the Ai family will let you in." Taste them all before you die."

After hearing this, the palace maid trembled and said: "Your Majesty, spare your life, Queen Mother, spare your life! I really don't know anything about Yue'er. Everything I know is what Yue'er told me. If I lie to you, I will be willing to do so." Take any punishment.”

Su Ying watched coldly as the Queen Mother threatened the maid. Since the Queen Mother had found a scapegoat, she might not be able to do anything to her today. Now Yue'er is dead, but fortunately Jiaoyang is unharmed.

Seeing that the palace maid recognized her, the Queen Mother did not recognize her, but turned to the emperor and said: "Emperor, it's all the fault of the Ai family for not taking good care of their servants, allowing this slave to take advantage of the loophole, and almost letting this cheap maid wrongly accuse Princess Jin. "

Situ Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the Queen Mother and said, "I was also negligent. The Queen Mother has been away from the palace for so long, and these servants must have started to slack off."

"I should have realized this a long time ago. Tomorrow I will order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to re-select some people and send them to the mother-in-law's palace. As for those who are short-sighted and deserve to be punished, there is no need to keep those who should be sent out of the palace."

As soon as these words came out, many of the servants behind the Queen Mother began to panic. The emperor wants to use this matter to change everyone in the Yongshou Palace. Now everyone, including the Queen Mother, is in danger.

The Queen Mother hurriedly said: "The emperor was busy with affairs in the previous dynasty, so there is no need to bother the emperor with matters in the Ai family's palace. The Ai family will take care of them when they return to the palace."

Situ Lin smiled and said: "As the emperor, I should be filial to the Queen Mother. I just give my orders on such small matters, and I won't let the Queen Mother worry about it."

The Queen Mother's fingers tightened tightly, and the silk thread strung with Buddhist beads was stretched straight. Soon it could not bear the strength and suddenly broke. The beads fell to the ground one by one. Her eyes were as sharp as a sword, circling in front of Su Ying. After a long while he said: "Su Ying, the poison of the scorching sun can be cured."

The corner of Su Ying's mouth raised slightly: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, it's just snake venom. Now Jiaoyang's life has been saved. Just take two more medicines and you'll be fine."

The Queen Mother stared at her solemnly: "Okay, Jiaoyang has been fine for a long time, but you kept this matter a secret. Even the Ai family didn't know that you were so capable."
