Chapter 121

Qiu Tong's heart pounded, and she didn't understand what Lin Yan meant.

The empress has not looked for anyone alone these days, how could she look for her today?
Could it be that what she did was discovered?

No, it's impossible, she did it very secretly, no one will know.

Lin Yan smiled, "I heard that your mother is seriously ill, so I will call an imperial doctor to take a look, so you can rest assured."

Qiutong raised her heart and quickly refused, "No, no need."

Lin Yan looked at her with a half-smile, "I heard that your family background is not very good. Your mother must have spent a lot of money when she was ill."

"Yes, the servant's family is not a wealthy family, and this time I borrowed money from others." Qiu Tong said hurriedly, still a little nervous in his words.

"Qiu Tong!"

"Miss."

"Do you still have something to hide from Ben Gong?" Lin Yan looked indifferent.

If she can take the initiative to admit it, she is willing to give her a chance, it depends on whether she wants to cherish it or not.

"Servant, servant dare not lie to your mother." Qiutong lowered her head firmly.

Lin Yan's expression didn't change much, it should be said that this was within her expectation.

Since Qiutong insisted, she has nothing to say.

"I heard that you often go out at night?"

"No servant." Qiutong denied, "The servant did not go out at night."

Lin Yan ignored it and said to himself, "The bracelet on your hand is pretty, where did you buy it?"

Qiutong clutched the bracelet subconsciously, "This is given to my servant by my maid, and I don't know where I bought it."

"Can you show me this?"

Qiutong clutched the bracelet and didn't speak, the meaning of refusal was obvious.

Lin Yan glanced at Mu Jin, "Why, you don't even want to show your empress? Your empress didn't want you." Mu Jin looked at her coldly, "Or do you have something to hide from your empress?"

"I don't dare." Qiu Tong hurriedly said, "This is given to the slave by the slave's mother, and I also asked the slave not to take it off."

Lin Yan smiled, "Since this is the case, I can't do such things that are difficult for others." Before Qiu Tong could breathe a sigh of relief, he said, "Then you go forward, and I will look at your hand."

Qiu Tong hesitated, it was not hers, she didn't know if Concubine Shu would recognize it, Mu Jin yelled angrily, "Why? You can't even take a look at it?"

Qiu Tong regained her senses and hurriedly said she didn't dare, stepped forward a few more steps, and stretched out her hand tremblingly in front of Lin Yan.

Lin Yan pinched her hand, looked at it twice, and said, "It's really a good thing." Then he let go, and said, "However, this bracelet is worth a lot."

The workmanship of this bracelet is very valuable, and her family cannot afford it.

Qiu Tong lowered her head and did not speak, but Mu Jin echoed from the side, "Madam, this is a bracelet from Zhenbao Pavilion, at least 80 taels." This is what she said at the very least, and the things in Zhenbao Pavilion are generally not cheap.

Lin Yan just glanced at her, Qiutong knelt on the ground, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, she didn't know that the bracelet was worth so much money, if she knew, she would definitely not wear it.

"I heard that you have paid back the money you owed?" Zhaocai told her, otherwise she really didn't know.

"Servant, servant..." Qiu Tong couldn't find any good excuses for a while.

"Your mother is seriously ill and needs to spend money. You have money to pay it back so soon?" He said again, "And you still have money to buy such an expensive bracelet? Doesn't it mean that your family background is not good?"

Qiutong broke out in cold sweat, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
