Chapter 16

But because the scene just now was so frightening that the servant standing beside him lowered his head and dared not make any easy moves.

Seeing this, Xiao Shengyong's handsome face showed thick anger, and he scolded him in a cold voice.

"What are you doing in a daze? Can't hear the queen's order? Go get water!"

"Yes, the servant will go here."

The servant trembled in fright, turned around and ran outside.

After a while, the servant came to Su Lijin with a basin of clean water.

"Empress, the water is here."

Su Lijin nodded slightly, then put her pure white sleeves in the water, and after rubbing them lightly, the water that was originally free of impurities gradually turned black.

Most of the people didn't know what it meant, and still looked at Su Lijin with doubts on their faces, but many people realized that someone had manipulated Su Lijin, trying to frame her as a so-called evildoer.

As a queen, if she is really charged with such a crime, it will be difficult for her to stand up for the rest of her life.

"What, what does this mean?"

Jiao Guiren was also stunned for a moment, she was still one of those who didn't react.

"Before I came, the so-called holy water sprinkled by the magic stick at the door is probably different for me alone?"

Su Lijin spoke coldly, but her tone was extremely positive.

"Your holy water and the kit are coated with something. As long as the two are in close contact, they will become black when they merge with each other. Sir Half Immortal, am I right?"

After hearing this, Jiao Guiren finally came to her senses. She looked at the magic stick beside her in astonishment, hoping to get a reasonable explanation.

The wooden sword in the hand of the magic stick fell directly to the ground.

She took a slow step, but approached the magic stick in front of her tightly.

After being exposed, the magic stick tried to explain in vain, perhaps because he was too panicked, he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything in the end.

Xiao Shengxiong had a panoramic view of everything, with an angry look on his face, he said in a cold voice.

"Come here, let me detain this person who has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and put him in the prison!"

Shenstick knelt on the ground in fear, begging for forgiveness.

Jiao Guiren on the side also panicked.

After all, he was the one who brought the magic stick back. Now that something happened, he must be to blame.

While still thinking about countermeasures, Su Lijin had already set her sights on her.

"Jiao Guiren, I heard that this half-immortal was brought in from outside the palace on purpose, so you slandered me as a monster, but someone instructed you to do this?"

Jiao Guiren, who was named among them, looked up at Su Lijin with tears in his eyes.

Jiao Guiren hurriedly opened his mouth to explain, trembling uncontrollably because of fear, "Emperor, empress, my concubine doesn't know anything."

At this time, she turned her attention to Xiao Shengyao again, trying to make the emperor show more compassion and tolerance to her.

The magic stick was caught by someone, and in order to survive, he tried his best to break free and rushed towards Jiao Guiren.

"Jiao Guiren, Jiao Guiren, please help me, please help me! If you hadn't brought me into the palace, I wouldn't be where I am today, please, please!"

The words of this half-immortal undoubtedly added fuel to the flames, dragging Jiao Guiren into the water in an instant.

Jiao Guiren was still trying to explain in a panic, but the magic stick clung to Jiao Guiren as if grasping at the last straw.

Seeing such a farce, Xiao Shengyun said in a cold voice: "Jiao Guiren secretly brought back people from outside the palace, making the harem dirty and messy, and immediately downgraded to agreeing to confine your feet, and you are not allowed to go out without my permission."

The red-eyed Jiao Guiren fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

She tugged at the corner of Xiao Shengxun's clothes, and pleaded choked with sobs: "Your Majesty, this concubine knows I was wrong, and this concubine will definitely abide by her duty in the future. I hope that the emperor's kindness in the past will allow me to forgive my concubine!"

"The kindness in the past? As far as I know, the queen is usually kind and never makes things difficult for you, but you framed him without any regard for affection, and even specially invited this person to slander the queen."

Xiao Shengyun leaned over, grabbed Jiao Guiren's wrist that was pulling at the corner of his clothes, and pulled her hand away with a little force.

"Jiao Guiren, before, I really didn't realize that your heart is so cruel."

Jiao Guiren was violently thrown away and fell to the ground.

At this moment, she lost all hope, and the future palace would only be endless darkness for her.

The scene in front of them made other people feel mixed emotions.

Concubine Ke Shu looked at Jiao Guiren with disgust and contempt.

Such a stupid woman can still sit in the position of nobleman, I don't know what kind of luck it is.

It's really useless, with such a shrewd method, it didn't work out in the end.

Instead, he put himself in it.

Today's matter, if it was me.

She will definitely push everything to that magic stick without hesitation.

Even though the magic stick is unwilling, after all, he is not living alone in this world.

Isn't he afraid that the whole family will die in vain because of him?

Su Lijin raised her eyes and looked at the man standing in front of her. While being moved, she felt that there was still too much strangeness in this matter after all.

Jiao Guiren's behavior now really seems to be unintentionally involved.

If it was really her doing this, she must have been fully prepared, and even if she was exposed, she should have some contingency reactions.

But looking at Jiao Guiren's current appearance, he is completely ignorant.

It can be seen that Mr. Jiao was being used by others.

And the target of the person behind is himself, but he doesn't know whether it is Xiao Zhaolin or Mongolia.

Thinking of this, Su Lijin said to Xiao Shengyun. "Your Majesty, why don't you leave Jiao Guiren and this magic stick to your concubine? The Emperor is busy with government affairs all day long, so don't worry too much about such trivial matters."

The man frowned when he heard the words, and turned to look at Su Lijin.

There was a deep search in his eyes, and he looked at the person in front of him carefully before speaking.

"I've already dealt with this matter, and the queen wants to send her away. Could it be that she has some other plans?"

Xiao Shengyun's tone was flat, and he couldn't hear anything.

But Su Lijin was still a little afraid of Xiao Shengyun's suspicion, not because he suspected that he had other plans, but because he suspected that he was not satisfied with his handling.

But if you continue to explain it, it will only get darker and darker.

Thinking of this, she changed the subject with a smile.

"The emperor is worrying too much, and the concubine just wants to help the emperor share his worries, besides..."

In the blink of an eye, a figure of a person appeared in Su Lijin's mind.

That is, since the revelation of the magic stick, there has been no empress dowager who has said a word.

Taking out the handkerchief she carried with her, Su Lijin wiped away the tears that did not exist, "Your Majesty, I just feel a little wronged."
