"I … I didn't do that! This servant is loyal and devoted to Your Ladyship ah! Your Highness, please save me! "
Last night, Yuan Shu had been secretly sent to the king by Xiaoyu's men.
Although the King was not a bloodthirsty person, he was very disgusted with evil servants like Yuan Shu.
The eunuchs had only asked her a few questions, but she had brought them out of the king's tent and scolded them.
Those eunuchs were all the king's men, so they would not listen to her.
The king immediately gave her a good beating. Yuan Shu cried for her father and mother, and also vomited out a lot of the bad things the queen had done all these years.
That was why the king was so angry, even though he had heard about some of the things.
He did not expect the queen to be so unscrupulous.
It was as if the palace was her back garden, where she could do whatever she wanted.
Yuan Shu was scared after being beaten, so she thought that the queen would save her.
Unexpectedly, the queen immediately cut all ties with her and even spoke ill of her.
Looking at the farce between the master and the servant, Lin Mengya could not help but shake her head secretly.
Now, she saw clearly what loyalty was.
"Shut up! I have never asked you to do such disgraceful things. Your Highness, all these things were done by Yuan Shu alone. It has nothing to do with me. Your Highness, please execute this evil woman as soon as possible! "
The queen tried her best to push the blame on Yuan Shu, but the latter obviously did not expect it.
Yuan Shu looked at her master blankly, and a trace of viciousness flashed across her eyes.
Last night, when she was beaten to the point of death, a eunuchs came over and whispered to her that if the queen refused to save her, she should tell the truth.
In this way, the king might spare her life on the account that she had made a meritorious service.
Otherwise, with the king's love for Lady Jingrou, she would definitely suffer all kinds of torture this time.
Thinking of everything that happened last night, Yuan Shu felt her scalp tighten.
She had finally witnessed what it meant to be an infernal hell.
She did not want to experience that kind of pain again!
"Your Highness, I, Yuan Shu, have always been loyal and devoted to you. I didn't expect that you'd leave me in the lurch! Alright, then don't blame this servant! His Majesty, Madam, the Great Empress Dowager is indeed plotting against you two. Ever since the Great King Empress woke up, she had been thinking about revenge and framing Madam Jingrou. Three days ago, the Great King Empress had obtained something from Lord Yao. Later, she divided the things among us servants. Let us look for an opportunity to be present at your ladyship's table. That day, I saw the people from the Phoenix Plume Garden holding a box of perfume in their hands. That's when I thought of this. Afterwards, I smeared the poison on my fingertips and put it in the fragrant bait. "
Yuan Shu's words had turned the Great King Empress's face as pale as a sheet of paper.
It shivered like a butterfly that could not survive the winter.
If it wasn't for someone supporting her from behind, she would definitely be lying on the ground like a pile of mud.
She looked at Yuan Shu in horror, then at her husband. Her expression was filled with a murderous aura.
The Great King Empress only had one thought in her mind. She was finished!
Your Highness, I didn't, Your Highness … "
"Enough!"
The King, who was in a rage, did not want to listen to any more excuses from this vicious woman.
He clenched his fists and wanted to kill the Great King Empress as soon as possible.
The room was silent. The Great King Empress was paralyzed in the arms of her servant.
She looked at her husband blankly. This was the first time she realized that he really wanted to kill her!
"Your Highness, please calm down."
Madam Jingrou did not show a victorious smile, nor did she continue to add fuel to the fire.
Instead, she quietly held the King's hand with a worried look on her face. Her eyes were filled with concern for the King.
Lin Mengya saw this and understood that the Great King Empress had lost to Madam Jingrou a long time ago.
The King Empress was like a peerless blade. Although it was dazzling, it was too sharp.
Only by using softness to overcome hardness could she make this blade restrain its brilliance and turn it into her protection.
However, the Great King Empress only knew how to fight force with force. Therefore, the King and the Queen were incompatible like water and fire.
The situation was very clear now. The Great King Empress had instructed Yuan Shu to poison the Great King Empress. There was no way the Great King Empress could quibble.
At this moment, a bigger fire was burning in the sleeping chamber.
"Let me go! I want to see the King! Your Highness, you can't treat my sister like this. She is infatuated with you. You can't be so heartless! "
His rough voice did not restrain itself in the slightest just because this was the King's bedchamber.
Lin Mengya immediately realized the identity of this person.
Yao Zun, the eldest son of the Yao family of Lieyun, was also the famous General of the North.
Because he and the Great King Empress had the same mother, the Great King spoiled his only sister.
If not for him, the Great King Empress would not be so arrogant.
Until now, Yao Zun was still arrogant and did not take the King seriously at all.
Lin Mengya wondered how this pair of brother and sister could survive until now and how powerful they were.
Sure enough, even the survival mode of people who could reincarnate was simple.
Yao Zun looked a little rough and looked like a boorish man.
What's more, he was wearing a large and gorgeous robe.
Lin Mengya had seen this kind of robe before. The priests also wore similar robes, but they were not as flashy as Yao Zun.
Beside him stood a few servants with bitter expressions on their faces.
They must have failed to stop this general because he was too difficult to deal with.
The King glanced at him with an inscrutable expression.
Lin Mengya found something wrong. Even if the situation was urgent, Yao Zun did not bow to the King.
It seemed that he really regarded this place as the backyard of the Yao family.
"What did you say?"
Yao Zun might be a boorish man, but his aura wasn't just a little bit inferior to His Majesty.
It was a simple sentence, but it was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.
It also made the hot-tempered general calm down a little.
"I … I just feel that my sister has been wronged. Your Majesty, my sister has served you for many years. Don't you know her character? Although my sister has a temper, she is much better than those who only know how to mislead people. "
His words were directed at Madam Jingrou.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. Yao Zun did not know the rules.
No matter what, Madam used to be the Poisonous Insect Witch of the Xin family, and now she was the King's wife.
No matter which identity she had, he should not say that.
"General Yao Zun's words are a slap to the face of the Xin family. Greetings, Your Majesty, Her Highness and Madam. "
A gentle and refined voice with a hint of interrogating tone could be heard.
Lin Mengya subconsciously looked at the door. Why was he here?
"Xin Luan, why are you here?"
Madam Jingrou was also surprised to see the middle-aged man coming in.
These days, Xin Luan had closed his door and refused to meet anyone.
This time, they did not disturb him.
But he came uninvited, and it seemed that he wanted to support Madam Jingrou.
An unexpected person brought a pleasant surprise. Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, and then she regained her composure.
With Xin Luan here, the show would be even more exciting.
"You … What Xin family? She has been expelled by the Xin family a long time ago. High Priest, I'm afraid you don't have the ability to let the Xin family accept her again! "
Naturally, Yao Zun did not buy Xin Luan, a has-been High Priest.
Lin Mengya shook her head secretly. She finally understood why the King agreed to her plan to eradicate the Yao family first.
The Yao family was too powerful, but the successors were all idiots.
If Wanyan Jing was given a chance to fully control the situation, it would not be right in the future.
Take Xin Luan for example, whether he was past his prime or not.
To be able to reach that position, there must be many scheming and scheming people.
But Yao Zun mocked him coldly. It was really a quick death.
"Yao Zun, you have no right to insult the Xiqi family's people. As the High Priest of the Xin family, I will not allow you to confuse right and wrong. Today, I will pass on your words to the Old Master of the Yao Family word for word. "
Yao Zun immediately shut his mouth. Although he looked a little unnatural, Xin Luan had caught his weak spot.
The real decision-maker of the Yao family was the Old Master. Even now, the Old Master was no longer the head of the family, but he still had a very high status in the family.
The Old Master had explicitly forbidden him to get involved in the affairs of his sister's family.
Unexpectedly, when he heard that his sister had been wronged, he rushed over in a hurry.
Xin Luan really knew him well!
"Your Majesty, Great Witch Doctor. I heard that someone wanted to poison Madam Jingrou and the King. This is a serious matter, so I wanted to come and listen.
Putting himself in a position of insignificance, it seemed that he was here to listen.
But in fact, what he said just now showed that he was here to support Madam Jingrou.
Lin Mengya found the current situation particularly interesting. Whether it was the competition of family status or the King's favor, the First Queen was obviously at a disadvantage.
It seemed that the outcome of today's game had been decided.
"Alright, come and have a seat."
Xin Luan bowed elegantly and sat down in his seat with a gentle look on his face.
His eyes swept across the few important people in the main hall, but stopped at Miss Jialan's seat.
A complicated look flashed across his face, but it was only for a moment.
Lin Mengya lowered her head and only dared to sneak a peek at others. She did not realize that the purpose of the High Priest's arrival today was not only to support Madam Jingrou, but also for her.
"Search the palace at Linqiu Pavilion. You must get to the bottom of the poisoning. I will not tolerate another person. "
