Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

Chapter 373: Inside and Outside the Palace

Lin Junxue said, "The Queen Mother was too cruel. She tricked Jin Ronghua into drinking poison and used her life to plot against me. After the truth was revealed, she threw Jin Ronghua back to the palace. The Queen Mother looked down on Jin Ronghua, but she didn't expect that even a cornered rabbit would bite. Before Jin Ronghua died, she told Concubine Shu the truth about the witchcraft that day."

Danzhen sighed

"But even if Shu Jieyu knew, what could she do? She is now out of favor and childless. Even if she knew that the Queen Mother was the enemy who killed her unborn child, I'm afraid she would be helpless. She can only look at her enemy in front of her every day. This feeling is really uncomfortable."

Lin Junxue shook her head

"Not necessarily. The Queen Mother will never understand that a woman who has lost her child can do anything. Having been in a high position for many years, she will not understand that even if a person is as humble as a blade of grass, once there is hatred in his heart, he will have infinite courage and would rather die in glory than live in disgrace. Just wait and see, Shu Jieyu will not let it go like this."

Danzhen said, "Your Majesty is right. The rain is going to get heavy. Let's go back to the palace quickly, Your Majesty."

three days later

Lin Junxue received Xie Yu's reply letter, which was sent back to the palace at an express speed of eight hundred miles.

According to the journey, the royal team will reach the southwest in seven or eight days.

In the letter, Xie Yu did not say much about Zheng Jin's death. He only said that everything should be done according to the rules, and asked Lin Junxue to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Zheng Jin has been favored by Xie Yu for quite a while.

Now that he was dead, Xie Yu only said lightly, "Follow the rules," and didn't say anything else.

It can be seen that Xie Yu has no feelings for Zheng Jin at all, and he has the heart of a ruthless emperor.

Lin Junxue put away the letter with an indifferent expression. Sure enough, it was just as she thought.

Xie Yu didn't care about Zheng Jin's death. He just needed to find out the real culprit of the poisoning as soon as possible and give an explanation to the harem.

Qiao Xin stepped forward and put away the letter

"Your Majesty, the Emperor wants you to find the real culprit as soon as possible. What should we do now?"

Lin Junxue paused, stood up, and looked out the window.

Rain hits the banana leaves. It has been raining continuously these days, and people are restless.

Lin Junxue said calmly, "It's not me who's worried about this matter, it's the Queen Mother. Go and deliver the Emperor's letter to Ci'an Palace. Then, the murderer will show up."

Qiao Xin said, "I understand, Madam, don't worry, I will do it right away."

Qiao Xin sent the letter to Ci'an Palace

Within half a day, the Queen Mother sent someone to report to Lin Junxue that the murderer had been caught.

The murderer was a eunuch in Ci'an Palace, who was said to have worked in the imperial kitchen before.

One day, when delivering food to Ning'an Palace, Zheng Jin slapped him several times as punishment, which made him bear a grudge and poisoned him.

After listening to this, Lin Junxue looked at the eunuch kneeling on the ground. This eunuch was a close confidant of the Queen Mother that she kept in the palace.

He had indeed worked in the imperial kitchen. After the Empress Dowager returned from Yushan, she transferred the young eunuch back to Ci'an Palace.

The Queen Mother will put forward a scapegoat, who can only be one of her own confidants; no one else will be willing to die.

In order to calm the situation as quickly as possible, the Queen Mother naturally had to put forward a trustworthy confidant.

However, the reason for the poisoning was full of loopholes that everyone knew.

The young eunuch was dragged away and beaten to death. The empress dowager saw that Lin Junxue did not ask any more questions, and her face became better.

Fortunately, the queen was sensible and did not pursue the matter further, saving her the trouble.

Lin Junxue sat there, lowering her eyes, sipping tea leisurely, her eyebrows raised slightly.

There is no point in pursuing this matter further as it will not sway the Queen Mother.

What she always wanted was to deliver a fatal blow, leaving the empress dowager with no chance of recovery.

evening

Zhuxi is here

Lin Junxue raised her eyes and said, "In seven or eight days, Xie Yu will arrive at the Sun family in the southwest. Xie Wenqing, you must hide well. Xie Yu will go there in person this time, and he will not give up until he kills Xie Wenqing."

Zhuxi walked over and sat next to Lin Junxue

"Xie Wenqing has already left the southwest, and Xie Yu went there but couldn't find anything."

Lin Junxue put down the notes in her hand, her eyes slightly deep

"How long are you going to keep Xie Wenqing? Is he useful to you?"

Zhuxi picked up the apple on the table and took the knife in his right hand. His hands were so perfect that they looked like works of art, making people linger.

"It's useless. I just promised him a favor before, so I'm just repaying him. This time, it's for..."

Zhuxi paused, and his earlobes turned a little red. Lin Junxue stared into his eyes and curled her lips.

"In order to lure Xie Yu away, leave the palace, and stay with me?"

Zhuxi nodded

"Well, for you."

Lin Junxue touched Zhuxi's face, her eyebrows slightly curved.

"Anything for me?"

Zhuxi said without hesitation, "For you, I can do anything. If you become a Buddha, I will kneel before the Buddha forever."

Lin Junxue put away the smile on her lips, stared into his eyes, and said word by word, "But I prefer to be a fallen demon. My hands are destined to be stained with blood."

Zhuxi's eyes gradually deepened

for a while

He said, "If you fall into the devil, I will give up this Buddha."

Lin Junxue smiled, her smile was as bright and charming as a flower.

"good"

Then, Lin Junxue picked up the notes again and said calmly, "Since I have already repaid Xie Wenqing's favor, whether he is dead or alive? It has nothing to do with you from now on."

Back then, the third prince Xie Wenqing almost forced the original owner.

Xie Wenqing also wanted the millions of troops in the hands of the Lin family.

If the original owner had not refused to obey, then Xie Wenqing would have been the one who destroyed the original owner's innocence.

Therefore, Xie Wenqing deserves to die as well.

Zhuxi paused for a second and nodded, "Okay, I'll have someone send him back to the southwest."

Lin Junxue curled her lips. Zhuxi was really cute. Should I send her back?

Only Zhuxi can say this seriously.

Zhuxi looked at Lin Junxue and said seriously, "What's wrong? I can send him to Xie Yu."

Lin Junxue said softly, "No need, just send him back to the southwest and let Xie Yu look for him slowly. The scene of brothers fighting is quite exciting."

Ten days later

Xie Yu's letter was delivered to Zhonghe Palace again, and he had already arrived in the southwest.

At the same time, Zhang Yuyan's letter was also sent back. Was everything as Lin Junxue expected?

During this journey, Xie Yu had Zhang Yuyan sleep with him most of the time.

Sun Manrou also used some tricks, but Zhang Yuyan resolved them lightly, and nothing serious happened. They arrived at the Sun family safely.

There has been no more trouble in the harem these days.

Without Xie Yu, the concubines in the harem no longer had to compete for favor, and everything was peaceful.

Over at Ci'an Palace, the Queen Mother has recently been obsessed with having a secret affair with Wang Chu, and she stays inside the palace all day long and doesn't go out.

southwest

Sun Family

Xie Yu listened to the secret guard's report with a gloomy expression. Was he in a bad mood?

The secret guards had been searching for two or three days, but there was still no trace of Xie Wenqing.

"Go and continue investigating for me. You must find Xie Wenqing. I must find him alive or dead. This time, I must kill this traitor Xie Wenqing with my own hands."

After the secret guards left, Gao Cheng walked in

"Your Majesty, there is a letter from the Queen, it just arrived."

Xie Yu's complexion improved.

"The Queen's letter? Present it to me."

Gao Cheng handed the letter to Xie Yu, who opened it and after reading it, a smile actually appeared on his face.
