The Destiny of Going to Hell

Chapter 130: Legend of Zhen Huan - Meng Jingxian 20

Yinzhen got the empress dowager's investigation results, which only stated that there was something wrong with Nian Shilan's tassels, but she did not investigate further. Firstly, Nian Gengyao was still at the front line, and secondly, no one was in trouble. So the empress dowager wanted to pick it up and put it down gently, just as an accident.

Yinzhen understood the Queen Mother's concerns, and the matter was resolved unexpectedly.

Both Shen Meizhuang and Fucha felt that it was Nian Shilan who did it, but Yinzhen did not punish her due to pressure. Their hatred for Nian Shilan continued to grow.

Only Zhen Huan was worried. She was clearly pushed by someone that day, and Nian Shilan was standing in front of her. There must be a dark hand hiding in the harem.

Who is it? Who knows that she is pregnant and wants to kill two birds with one stone?

There must be a spy in my palace, but it is clear that only Liu Zhu, Cui Jinxi and myself know about my pregnancy. The three of them are lying on the bed leisurely late at night. Could it be that someone is lying against the wall and eavesdropping?

Cui Jinxi and Su Peisheng are friends, and she also contributed to his restoration of favor. If she wanted to harm me, there was no need for her to help him restore favor.

Zhen Huan called Cui Jinxi and Liu Zhu, and they immediately knelt down to explain that they were definitely not the ones who leaked the information.

Cui Jinxi felt that something was fishy, ​​maybe someone was deliberately trying to sow discord, as there were indeed only three people present at the time. Seeing the hatred in Zhen Huan's eyes, Cui Jinxi could only protect herself.

So after some arguments, Zhen Huan believed Cui Jinxi's words more. Firstly, Cui Jinxi was useful to her, and secondly, Cui Jinxi was eloquent, while Liu Zhu was actually a rash and inarticulate person.

She couldn't explain what her motives and consequences would be if she did so, like Cui Jinxi did. She could only look up and hope that her master, whom she had grown up with, would believe her.

"Liu Zhu, you and I grew up together, so I trust you. If you feel wronged, I will stand up for you. But there were only three of us that day, so I think you can prove your innocence based on our relationship."

There was a meaningful look in Zhen Huan's eyes. In fact, Zhen Huan no longer trusted Liu Zhu. Ever since the incident with Huanbi, she always felt that Liu Zhu's loyalty was discounted.

Oh, she didn't expect that after Huanbi, Liuzhu would also betray her.

Yes, Zhen Huan has already determined that it is Liu Zhu.

To put it bluntly, once suspicion begins, the crime is already established.

Once you have doubts about a person, you will unconsciously accuse him of crimes. Zhen Huan had long been suspicious of Liu Zhu, and now that this incident happened, she felt that it was true.

"Thank you for believing me, my lord, but my lord, how can I prove my innocence?"

Liuzhu was very happy that her wish was responded to by Zhen Huan.

"It's very simple. Just bring the medicine pot to the table in front of me." Zhen Huan's words were light-hearted, but Liu Zhu was so surprised that she didn't know how to react.

Even Cui Jinxi looked at Zhen Huan in surprise. She was so cruel that even the servants she brought into the palace didn't believe her. Could she really rely on Zhen Huan to become the aunt of the Empress Dowager?

Moreover, if news of Zhen Huan's behavior got out, how would she control the servants in the palace?

When Zhen Huan called the two of them over, the medicine was already being boiled. It was a pregnancy-preserving medicine prescribed by the imperial physician. The medicine pot was still boiling on the fire, a short distance away from them.

Bring it here with your hands. Isn't this going to cripple Liu Zhu's hands? How can I live as a slave with crippled hands?

Liu Zhu was more shocked than Cui Jinxi. She looked at Zhen Huan with tears rolling down her cheeks. Zhen Huan looked at her with such a strange look in her eyes.

"Miss, you don't believe me?" Liu Zhu didn't even call her "Young Master" anymore, and called her by the name she used to call him in the Zhen Mansion.

She watched the young lady walk away with Shen Meiyu, watched the young lady being betrayed by Huanbi, watched the young lady put aside her pride to please the king. She knew that the young lady was slowly changing and was no longer the same as before.

But what does it matter? A young lady is a young lady. Huanbi has abandoned her, and I will definitely stay with her in the palace for the rest of my life!

Otherwise, how can the young lady survive in the lonely palace?

"Of course I believe you. Liu Zhu, don't you want to prove your innocence and clear your name?"

Hearing Zhen Huan's seemingly urgent response, Liu Zhu finally gave up. She closed her eyes and looked up at Zhen Huan with a complicated look.

It sounds like a sigh, like disappointment, like sadness, like compassion, but there is no resentment.

Liu Zhu walked towards the medicine jar step by step, holding the edge of the jar with both hands. The moment he put his hands down, Cui Jinxi could even hear a sizzling sound.

Liu Zhu placed the medicine jar on the table in front of Zhen Huan, her face calm, as if nothing had happened, "My lady, I did what you wanted me to do."

Her hands trembled. "Liu Zhu has been with the young lady for many years since she was a child. I never thought that I would arouse the young lady's suspicion. Liu Zhu has no face to serve the young lady anymore. I just hope that the young lady can rise to a higher position in the future."

After Liu Zhu finished speaking, he ran towards the pillar of the hall behind him. Cui Jinxi had no time to stop him, and Liu Zhu died on the spot.

Zhen Huan was extremely cold, as if the person who died was a stranger, "Jinxi, tell someone to clean up after him, and then say that Liuzhu was dishonest, and when I found out, she felt ashamed and hit herself against a pillar and died."

Cui Jinxi shuddered, but still said yes.

How can the news of a person's death be spread? She was cruel enough, and she was indeed the one she had chosen, and she could go further in the harem. But, what if she became a Liu Zhu one day?

Two months passed quickly, and one day Cao Qinmo came to Nian Shilan Palace late at night with a note in her hand.

Nian Shilan was a little unhappy. Looking at Cao Qinmo's solemn expression, she asked, "What happened?"

Cao Qinmo showed the note to Nian Shilan, which clearly stated, "The Queen killed Queen Chunyuan and has controlled the heirs for many years."

In fact, with Cao Qinmo's intelligence, she had already realized that the queen might not want people to give birth to children, so she turned to Nian Shilan, and later Concubine Fang confirmed her guess.

Although Fangpin believed that it was Nian Shilan who did it, Nian Shilan had been under her nose the whole time. She was the one who needed her to provide all the schemes. How could she harm someone's child? It would be better to kill the adults directly.

But no one expected that the queen was actually the murderer of Queen Chunyuan.

Nian Shilan's face suddenly showed joy. After so many years, she finally caught the old woman, the queen, with something to hold against her. She must bring Yixiu down and prepare for her own ascension to the throne!

But Cao Qinmo said, "My queen, I don't know who wrote this note. Who else in the harem has such great powers?"

Cao Qinmo felt a chill run down her spine. What on earth could be going on? There was actually someone so unfathomable in the palace.

Nian Shilan waved her hand nonchalantly, "No matter who she is, she is not our enemy. Otherwise, why would she hand over the Queen's evidence to us?"

She became excited, "I will write a letter to my brother, asking him to investigate the death of Queen Chunyuan. It would be best if he could collect the evidence and send it to the emperor."

She got busy, but Cao Qinmo felt vaguely uneasy. Who wouldn't be afraid of an unknown enemy?
