Chapter 30
On the contrary, he was unusually calm.

Before Su Lijin could finish her words, the Empress Dowager set her eyes on Xiao Shengyun.

"Your Majesty, how are you going to deal with this matter? Do you really trust a suspect?"

"Or, now, even Aijia's words don't work anymore? Your Majesty!"

This blatant threat.

The hand hanging by her side was clenched unconsciously, and Su Li frowned and spoke to the Queen Mother.

"Empress Dowager, I am still an Empress after all. Before the Kunning Palace changes hands, it is up to me in the harem. Therefore, please avoid this matter, Empress Dowager. I will definitely investigate it!"

"Are you going to threaten Aijia with your status as queen?"

The Queen Mother was angry and directly threw the teacup beside her to show her majesty.

Su Lijin was not afraid at all.

"Okay, okay, this is your good queen, it's so good to be so unfilial to Ai's family!"

The empress dowager's momentum weakened, and she changed the subject again.

It's actually useless for Xiao Shengyun to continue pestering after knowing the mother.

The most important thing now is to return Su Lijin's innocence.

"Forget it, Queen Mother, you don't have to worry about this matter. I think it's fine to leave it to her to deal with Mrs. Xi's affairs."

His few words have already explained his position.

"Your Majesty!" The Queen Mother frowned dissatisfied.

Although the Empress Dowager was reluctant, this matter was finally handed over to Su Lijin.

When Su Lijin returned to Kunning Palace, her brows were furrowed, and after much deliberation, she decided to attack the maid beside Xi Guiren.

But this matter should not be brought up by myself...

Thinking of this, Su Lijin finally decided to meet someone in person.

In the secret passage of the palace, Su Lijin, who was dressed in low-key night clothes, saw the person whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Uncle Zhao." She opened her mouth, calling the name of the person standing with her back facing her.

After hearing Su Lijin's voice, Zhao Heng hurriedly turned his head, leaned over and said, "Empress!"

"Uncle Zhao, I'm looking for you this time. In fact, there is still one thing I need to ask for your help."

Su Lijin was about to explain, but Zhao Heng agreed without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, even if you let the old minister go to die, the old minister will not hesitate in the slightest. If you have any orders, you can just say it."

Su Lijin was touched in her heart, but she didn't say those hypocritical words. She opened her mouth to Zhao Heng and told her plan.

It was night, and the moonlight was not very good today, but the door of Noble Xi's palace was suddenly pushed open.

Because the incense was prepared in advance, Mr. Xi was already fast asleep by this time.

However, the maid lying in the side hall guarding did not inhale much fragrance because of the distance.

After she heard the voice, she opened her eyes to look, only to find that there was someone more in front of her.

Subconsciously, she was about to cry out, but in the end, the person in front of her covered her mouth, and was dragged out of the hall by the shoulders.

She knelt on the ground trembling, begging for mercy desperately.

"Don't kill me, please, don't kill me..."

The court lady is very timid, she has never encountered such a situation, and now she is so frightened that she even trembles when she speaks.

Zhao Heng looked at the maid in front of him coldly, then directly drew out his long sword and put it on the maid's neck.

"I have some questions to ask you. If you tell the truth, I will let you go back, but if you lie to me, I will let you go without returning."

The maid nodded repeatedly, not daring to resist.

Zhao Heng asked about nobleman Xi's recent affairs. The maid is nobleman Xi's personal maid, so she knows a lot.

Only when it came to Mrs. Xi's miscarriage, she didn't know what to say.

When Zhao Heng saw the maid faltering, she made a gesture of stabbing the sword into the maid's heart, the maid trembled all over, and quickly said that she didn't know anything.

Seeing that the maid was about to kneel down and beg for mercy again, Zhao Heng withdrew his long sword, thinking that this maid didn't know anything.

But since even the personal maid doesn't know about it, it's really difficult to investigate this matter.

While he was still thinking, Zhao Heng's eyes suddenly noticed a figure secretly running towards Mrs. Xi's bedroom.

His eyes suddenly turned sharp, he flew away, kicked the man to the ground, knocked him unconscious and took him away.

In Kunning Palace, Su Lijin and Xiao Shengying sat in the upper seat, and lying below was a comatose man whose hands and feet were bound.

Xiao Shengyun said slowly: "Wake up."

The eunuch splashed water on the guard to wake him up, and the guard subconsciously resisted after waking up.

As a result, when he looked up and saw Su Lijin and Xiao Shengying, he trembled all over and dared not speak.

"Emperor, Your Majesty?"

"Tell me, how much do you know about nobleman Xi?"

Xiao Shengyun spoke slowly, with a cold tone in his tone.

The guard pursed his lips, apparently having an ideological struggle in his mind.

Seeing that the guards did not answer, Xiao Shengyun winked at the eunuch beside him. The eunuch understood and said, "You must know the crime of hurting your concubine. Your majesty, the empress can punish you for the crime of killing the nine clans. Now admit it, please the emperor." , Empress Empress may be able to save your family's life."

The guard thought for a while, but in the end he still failed to hold the line of defense, and said: "This subordinate did not harm Mr. Xi's child. This subordinate just wants to see Mr. Xi's child. The child inside Mr. Xi's belly is actually mine. "

Su Lijin was slightly shocked when she heard this. She remembered that in her previous life, there was a rumor that a nobleman had an affair with a guard. In the end, she was ordered to strictly prohibit discussing it, and let it go.

Now that the matter has developed to the point where I cannot control it, it is better to hand it over to Xiao Shengyun.

"Let's leave this matter to the emperor."

Xiao Shengyun looked at the man in front of him with deep eyes, and his thin lips parted slightly: "Execute."

After speaking, he gave the guard around him a look and left.

The guard understood what Xiao Shengyun meant, and dragged the man kneeling on the ground begging for mercy by his shoulders.

In nobleman Xi's bedroom, the emperor and queen came to visit suddenly. Although he didn't know what happened, nobleman Xi still felt a little guilty.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress." Noble Xi stood up and saluted.

Xiao Shengyun glanced at Su Lijin, and motioned for her to speak.

Su Lijin understood what he meant, and said directly: "Your Excellency Xi, your affair has been found out, and the guard who had an affair with you has now been executed."

"Nian you just had a miscarriage and your body still needs to recover, so let you take care of your body in the palace now and wait for what happens."

Noble Xi fell to the ground in a daze, looking at Xiao Shengyun with red eyes.

She wanted to explain, but she opened her mouth and said nothing.

The facts are already in front of my eyes, no matter what I say, it is actually just a sophistry.

"Well done."

After Xiao Shengyun left these words, he left with Su Lijin.
