What favor are you fighting for?The empress's harem has won a lot of business

Chapter 229 One Less

Lin Ximeng stared at Hui'er's scarred face.

"Tell me why you hate me so much"

Hui'er suddenly raised her head and clenched her teeth: "Hate is hate, why is there any reason?"

"Don't say it?"

"Then I have no choice but to ask Empress Cui."

Lin Ximeng smiled warmly, fluttering like catkins in the spring of March.

Hui'er suddenly became frightened, cried and kowtowed that she was willing to confess.

"It's Lin Guiren who is too favored. Our master always hates you so much. At the beginning, he always asks me to come up with ideas, asking if there is any way to pull Lin Guiren down."

"I'm just a servant, how can I have such courage"

Hui'er's tears fell drop by drop.

"Our master is dissatisfied with me. At first, he scolded me for being useless, and later he beat me with wicker, whip and board. I don't have any good skin on my body. I'm bruised and purple. I really can't bear it."

Hui'er kept kowtow, saying that she really didn't do it on purpose.

She spent all her savings to get through the relationship, got a few snake eggs from outside the palace, and asked the little eunuch in the livestock house to help them raise them, and only one survived to raise it to such a large size.

"I should have waited for them to grow up"

"Who knew Empress Cui started urging me again recently, I really can't stand it"

"Lin Guiren, I know that you are favored, and the Lin family is going to recover again. The future is boundless. I deserve to die. I beg you to spare my family and my master. They are all innocent, and I don't blame them."

Lin Ximeng: "..."

In my impression, Hui'er has always been doing her duty. Cui Concubine has been able to maintain her current position all these years, thanks to her persuasion from the sidelines.

It's a pity that such a court lady doesn't know how to cherish it.

"Unfortunately, I can only promise you half."

"Which half does Lin Guiren mean...?" Hui'er was dying.

Lin Ximeng stepped forward to wipe some blood for her, and told her in a warm voice: "I haven't made up my mind yet, you can take your time to read."

Hui'er was speechless for a while.

Lin Ximeng approached the emperor the next day, saying that the case had been solved and the murderer was Concubine Cui.

She once again showed the momentum of not giving up until she reached her goal, begging and clamoring for Xie Chenyu to fulfill her promise.

"This is what the emperor said, you will hand over the murderer to me"

"As long as you can prove it, I will leave it to you." Xie Chenyu narrowed his eyes.

"Hui'er has already confessed, what more proof does the emperor need? How can she, a court lady, have any enmity with me?" Lin Ximeng's eyes were burning.

"What's more, it's not the first time that Empress Cui wants to kill me, please forgive me and give justice to my concubine."

Xie Chenyu also stared at her piercingly, like two sharp arrows trying to pierce people's hearts.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally nodded.

"If you want to do it, you can"

Lin Ximeng thanked her deeply: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

She knew that the emperor knew what was on his mind, and Xie Chenyu also knew what she was thinking, and the two of them knew each other well without saying anything.

Lin Ximeng thinks, this is probably the confidence of these years, right?

-

When Concubine Cui was arrested and entered Gong Zhengsi, she was in a daze.

She was jealous of Lin Ximeng, but she didn't do anything, she just dared to think about it in her heart every time, and this could be known by others, couldn't she even think about it?
"Sister Concubine Cui, why are you still refusing to let me go? I'm just a nobleman. You hate me so much after being favored by the emperor for a few days?"

"How dare you instruct your maid to release poisonous snakes!"

Lin Ximeng cried so much that she was like a pear blossom with rain, no matter who saw it, she would feel pitiful.

"I...you..."

Cui Bin was dumbfounded.

Lin Guiren is gaining momentum. She has heard about it and knows that the Lin family will recover in the future. She even inquired about the old affairs between her and Concubine Meng.

Isn't the Lin family investigating the case back then, trying to find ways to rehabilitate the Lin family?Why did he suddenly target himself.

"Mr. Lin, why are you crazy, when will I let the poisonous snake bite you?" Concubine Cui asked in amazement.

"Hui'er has pleaded guilty to the law, and the evidence and charges are here. You still want to deny it?"

In the Palace Zhengsi, Lin Ximeng took out a few pages of paper and a few packets of poisonous snake feed and shook them in front of Concubine Cui. They were all feed for Hui'er's snake raising, and the accounts she sent to the various stewards in the palace in order to clear up the relationship. .

There are five taels, there are ten taels, and some even have 20 taels and 50 taels.

"All these evidences can prove that what you did, Concubine Cui, doesn't matter if you admit it or not."

Concubine Cui is like sitting at home, and the pot comes from the sky.

She was so angry that she pointed at Lin Ximeng's nose: "Stop talking nonsense, when did I send money to the steward, and which steward gave how much, you let them confront each other?"

Cui Shi is very arrogant, mainly because this matter really has nothing to do with her, that bitch Lin Shi is clearly looking for faults.

Lin Ximeng was not annoyed, she smiled and held up a few pages of account books in her hand.

"This is recorded by your personal maid. The emperor has already read it. Your empress should plead guilty and obey the law."

"By the way, I have good news for you. The emperor has handed over all the cases to me. Sister Cui, just tell me what happens to you."

Concubine Cui is a grievance, who can tell her what it is all about?
"I didn't harm you, Lin Ximeng, you just dislike me and want to remove the thorn in your flesh"

"so what?"

Lin Ximeng approached slowly.

"You have done a lot of immoral things over the years, why bother with this one, especially for me, Sister Cui"

Her eyes are very scary, like a ghost who just climbed up from hell, who doesn't care about anything and just wants revenge.

"There is nothing wrong with accusing me of a crime. Lin Ximeng, you just want to accuse me of a crime and catch me all in one go. You are so cruel."

Lin Ximeng was almost close to her face, and said half a sentence with a smile.

"It's hard for others to say, but you, Concubine Cui, are the kind that if I don't take your life, you will definitely take my life. Now it's just me doing it first, how about it?"

Cui Bin had nothing to say.

Lin Ximeng was right, if she didn't do it, she would do it if she found the right opportunity, and it would definitely be much more poisonous than Huier's.

That's it.

Concubine Cui closed her eyes, since it had already fallen into the hands of others, it was useless to say more.

"what do you want?"

"Murder pays for life, sister Cui doesn't know?"

Concubine Cui staggered: "How dare you?! Lin Ximeng, if you don't stand here alive and well, why do you say that I killed people, that I killed you?"

Lin Ximeng covered her ears because of the noise, put her pointed nails into her ears and turned around, dug out some debris and blew gently, and the fine powder scattered.

"No, but an attempted murder can't escape. Sister Cui, you don't know how poisonous the poisonous snake is."

She smiled and waved: "Take it away."

Immediately, some eunuchs tied up Concubine Cui Wuhuada and took her down roughly.

Concubine Cui cursed loudly, but was gagged by Lin Ximeng herself.

"If you have anything to say to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Sister Cui"

The roots of her ears were finally clean, and Lin Ximeng came out from Gong Zhengsi contentedly, and took a turn on the palace road.

"one less"

"so good"
