The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 540 Implications (3)

Lin Zixiang thought about it again, and it would be bad if Zhao Jin really committed suicide in fear of crime. With her nature of protecting her family, she would not do such a reckless thing.Dang even nodded: "Okay, then you should be more careful."

Zhao Jin nodded, and after Lin Zixiang left, she rubbed her forehead, turned around and sat down against the wall, the ground was covered with damp straw, and there were even mice in the night.It was the first time for her to be imprisoned at such a young age. Thinking that Jiang Ruan had also been in the sky prison, she couldn't help laughing at herself again.

She admires Jiang Ruan very much. Although she doesn't know martial arts, she can escape all kinds of conspiracies, no matter how dangerous the scene is.She seems to be very clever, always able to plan.When I first entered this prison, I didn't think I was as embarrassed as I am now.She must have been waiting quietly, like a wild beast lurking quietly, waiting for an opportunity to move and catch the prey.

But she didn't have Jiang Ruan's ability. She knew that Dong Ying'er had harmed her, but she couldn't do anything.And if one is not careful, he will also pull down his family.Zhao Jin took a deep breath and looked at the pendant around her waist. It was a piece of half-moon-shaped amber, which was given to her by Jiang Xinzhi. It was originally a necklace, but Zhao Jin finally made it into a pendant.This incident happened because of Jiang Xinzhi, if it wasn't for Jiang Xinzhi, maybe Dong Yinger wouldn't have such great hatred for her.

For the decision to be made now, if there is anyone who is sorry, besides his own family, Jiang Xinzhi is probably the one who is most sorry.But...she doesn't regret it.Zhao Jin closed her eyes and said suddenly, "Brother, brother!"

She was calling the jailer, and the jailer here treated her pretty well because of Jiang Xinzhi's special care for her. Hearing this, a jailer came over and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I want...to write an apology." Zhao Jin said.

Most things in the world are changing rapidly. Before Zhao Jin's letter of guilt was sent out, something happened in the palace.

The reason was that someone found the same poison in Mu Xirou's bedroom as the old ginseng sent to the palace by Zhao Jin.Mu Xirou and Zhao Jin are incompatible with each other, there is probably something strange about this matter, someone searched Mu Xirou's bedroom, and found another seal.With this seal, some guards in the palace can be transferred at will, and it is very convenient to walk in the palace, and this seal is not someone else's seal, it is the seal of the thirteenth prince Ye Pei.

When this happened, there was an uproar.

The thirteenth prince, Ye Pei, is still young now, so if it is said that he has something to do with Mu Xirou, it would be a bit far-fetched.But there is only one reason why Mu Xirou's things are in Ye Pei's hands, and that is - Mu Xirou is originally Ye Pei's person.

After that, many suspicious points were uncovered in Mu Xirou's bedroom. In a place like the imperial palace, once there is suspicion, if you want to investigate someone seriously, you are not afraid that you will not find anything.Although Mu Xirou's flaws were small, they were still discovered. In this way, everyone could be sure that Mu Xirou belonged to Ye Pei.

Then Mu Xirou belonged to Ye Pei, and Mu Xirou was related to the Thirteenth Prince, so why was it Zhao Jin who came to deliver things to Dong Yinger, but accidentally poisoned the emperor.This matter is like a mess, almost everyone can't see the clue, so it looks even more confusing.But at this time, someone stood up and said that he knew the hidden truth and wanted to defend himself.

This person is the personal maid of the Thirteenth Prince Ye Pei, Chaoyang.

Chaoyang knelt in front of Empress Dowager Yide, kowtowed and said, "I know what's going on. Mu Zhaoyi is a member of the Thirteenth Highness, and the Thirteenth Highness wanted to seize the throne, so he gave Mu Zhaoyi poison. Let her take the opportunity to go to His Majesty's decoction, but Mu Zhaoyi has very little time to serve His Majesty on weekdays, and Dong Xiuyi is taking care of her, so there is no chance to do it." Chaoyang paused, glanced at Queen Mother Yide, Then he continued timidly: "Then, and then it is because of Princess Hong'an... Princess Hong'an and His Highness the Thirteenth Prince have already formed an alliance, but now the life and death of Princess Hong'an is uncertain, and His Highness the Thirteenth is in urgent need of action, so Hong'an County The lord's elder brother, General Jiang, thought of a way. General Jiang's fiancée was Miss Zhao, and Miss Zhao and Dong Xiuyi had exchanged handkerchiefs, thinking of using this opportunity to send two old ginseng... I don’t want to part with those two thousand-year-old ginseng, so I will send the old ginseng to the herbal diet, and fry it together with His Majesty’s medicine.”

Chaoyang kowtowed, and said with fear on his face: "After the servant knew about this, I was very uneasy all the time, but the servant kept his words lightly, fearing that no one would believe him when he said it, so, so he kept hiding it, thinking that maybe they were not so bold. I don't want to Now it's really happened. The servants live in fear day and night, and now they can't bear it anymore. Empress Dowager, the Miss Zhao family was also used. In fact, it was Jiang who really wanted to kill His Majesty. General, no, it's His Royal Highness the Thirteenth!" Chaoyang finished speaking in one breath, and then knocked his head on the ground several times, until blood began to ooze from his head.

Both Ye Pei and Ye Li were standing here. Ye Li's astonishment remained undiminished when he heard this, and he looked at Ye Pei and said, "Thirteenth brother, you...you really did it?"

"Brother really makes me sad," Ye Pei said unhurriedly: "We are biological brothers, but you would rather believe in a lowly court lady, so you start to doubt me because of this. Of course I didn't do this."

Empress Dowager Yide didn't say anything, just looked at the two of them silently.In this room, Mu Xirou's expression was surprisingly calm. The imperial guards outside were all waiting at the side, waiting for an order to take Mu Xirou down. No matter what, they searched for the same girl in her dormitory. There is no doubt that the poison in the old ginseng is exactly the same, but based on this alone, Mu Xirou will never want to break away from this matter.

"Empress Dowager, what this servant said is absolutely true, and this servant is not talking nonsense. It is a matter of your Majesty's life and death. Even if you borrow a hundred of your servants, you will not dare to speak nonsense!" Chaoyang kowtowed: "Now this servant will tell the truth. Speaking out, I don’t want to live anymore, but I want peace of mind, so that I can have face to treat my parents when I go underground.” She first said that she wanted to die, that when people are about to die, their words are also kind, and that was it. Convincing reasons.

Dong Ying'er stood aside, covering her mouth, with a distressed expression on her face, she just murmured: "How could this be, how could this be?" She suddenly looked at Ye Pei angrily: "Your Majesty is so kind to you. Why did you harm His Majesty like this! The thirteenth prince, your heart is like a snake and a scorpion!"

Ye Pei laughed. In the face of all kinds of evidence against him, he actually looked very calm: "Yes, Dong Xiuyi, my father is so kind to me, why should I kill him? How can you listen to a little palace maid's nonsense?" What about eight ways?"

"She is your personal maid." Dong Ying'er said: "There is no reason, why did you frame you?"
