She went to the East Palace to be a eunuch, and the prince became her subordinate.

Chapter 21 is full of reversals!
"How, how could..."

Concubine Lin's eyes were fixed on the box in front of her, as if she wanted to see through it.

Slandering the prince is not a small matter, even if it is a noble concubine, it is impossible for her to be fine.

The emperor's eyebrows tightened when he saw this, and there was even more anger in his eyes, "Guifei Lin, is this the poisonous insect you mentioned? Where is it!"

"This……"

Concubine Lin suppressed her panic, and a forced smile appeared between her thick eyebrows, "Maybe this is because my concubine's information is wrong, maybe it's just an ordinary bug, but... I'm thinking too much."

This explanation was too forced, and everyone present looked hesitant about it.

Concubine Lin was already well known to everyone on the road. As the biological mother of the eldest prince, she must have wanted to find a position for her son that he should not covet.

During the dinner, Mo Qingsong couldn't hide his anxiety.

But there was a certain coward feeling in his heart, and he didn't have the courage to stand up and intercede for his biological mother.

"Father, I believe that the imperial concubine will not deliberately make such a calculation."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention was attracted.

Mo Yunzheng bowed his hands and said in a sincere tone: "There is indeed a misunderstanding about this matter, and today is my father's birthday banquet. Don't disturb your father's elegance with this trivial matter, let the banquet Just get on with it.”

Comparing the two compartments, you can see who is superior.

Many officials and ministers present nodded secretly, secretly sighing that he looked like a prince.

Seeing that Mo Yunzheng had stopped pursuing the matter, the emperor was silent for a while, then snorted displeasedly and said: "Since Zheng'er has already excused you, I will not pursue the matter any further. But you are also a noble concubine after all. Next time, think carefully before acting, and if you act recklessly again, I will never give you mercy."

Facing the emperor's black eyes that hinted at shock, Concubine Lin trembled. No matter how unwilling she was, she had no choice but to lie on the ground, "...Yes, I understand."

In front of the emperor, she did not dare to take advantage of Qiao. She forced herself up and said to Mo Yunzheng who had not retreated: "This time, I really listened to the villain's slander and misunderstood the prince. Fortunately, the prince knows right from wrong and did not argue with me." The palace cares."

"How could it be? Your concubine has taken care of me for so many years, but you still know your character clearly."

Ye Xuwan, who was standing not far away, looked at such a scene of motherly kindness and filial piety.

I couldn't help but marvel in my heart. The acting skills of these two people have entered the entertainment industry, and they are definitely at the level of movie kings and movie queens.

Later, Mo Yunzheng once again presented his birthday gift to the emperor, which was a drawing of a dam construction project in this box.

"Drought has been severe in the north in recent years. I sent my men to conduct on-site inspections and finally drew this drawing. After next spring, my father can send people to carry out construction and solve the suffering of the people in the north as soon as possible."

The emperor repeatedly looked at the drawings in his hands, and the joy in his eyes never faded for a moment.

I can't express enough how much I love this gift.

"Okay! Okay! Zheng'er is worthy of being the crown prince of our court. He is concerned about the people's urgent needs and worries about their sufferings. This gift is what I need most now. Reward!"

"Thank you, Father!"

After Mo Yunzheng turned around and stepped off the stage, he glanced at Ye Xuwan involuntarily.

When their eyes met, Ye Xuwan quietly put her hands on her abdomen and clapped to celebrate the success of this operation.

After seeing her little move, Mo Yunzheng's usually deep eyes suddenly flashed a smile.

Ye Xuwan was suddenly startled when she noticed it, and then her eyes couldn't help but reveal a suspicious look.

Did you just see it wrong?Did the guy smile a little?
Seeing Ye Xuwan dumbfounded, Mo Yunzheng finally realized what stupid thing he had just done.

He was actually faintly happy because of a slave's small gesture?
Ridiculous!

"Ahem... don't stand there, pour me some wine." Mo Yunzheng changed the subject as if he was evading.

"Ah, yes."

Ye Xuwan had just poured a glass of wine, and Concubine Lin, who had just been quiet for a long time, showed her face again in front of the emperor, and her flattering voice sounded:

"Your Majesty, I have also found the most suitable birthday gift for Your Majesty this time. I hope Your Majesty will take a look at it."

What happened just now made Concubine Lin's trust in the emperor almost sink to the bottom. The only chance to save her now was the birthday gift she presented to the emperor.

Concubine Lin waved her hand to signal the maid to present the gift.

The emperor looked at the box in front of him, which was a hundred times more exquisite than Mo Yunzheng's, and his cold expression became slightly moved.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Lin stood up and stepped forward to open the box herself.

The next second, a slender poisonous insect crawled out directly.

"what!--"

Concubine Lin's beauty turned pale in an instant, and she fell to the ground in fright.

When the emperor saw this, before anyone could react, he took the empty wine glass on the table and locked the poisonous insect inside.

"Lin Huan!"

This is Concubine Lin's real name.

Long Yan was so angry that no one dared to speak anymore.

All the courtiers present stood up in a hurry, while the maids and servants knelt down directly.

Concubine Lin was even more frightened by the emperor's anger. She knelt on the ground for a long time before she recovered.

"Your Majesty, I was framed! It's..."

Recalling everything that happened tonight, he turned to look at Ye Xuwan in the audience, with a trace of cruelty in his eyes.The moment Ye Xuwan raised her head to take a peek, she happened to see Concubine Lin's eyes looking at her.

Done!This woman still noticed her, and now she was being targeted again.

In response, Ye Xuwan said that she was completely numb.

Anyway, I will be targeted several times almost every month. Since I can't die, I will use the troops to cover up the water and the earth!
"It must be you, this dead slave, who caused this palace's fault!"

While speaking, Concubine Lin seemed like a lunatic who had lost her mind. She touched the wine bottle on the table and threw it directly at Ye Xuwan.

The wine bottle broke into pieces in front of Ye Xuwan, and the fine wine inside splashed into her face.

When Ye Xuwan saw this, she looked flustered and knelt down regardless of the drink in front of her.

"Your Majesty! This slave is unjust. This matter is a capital crime. How dare a slave, a mere eunuch, frame up the imperial concubine? There must be someone else who is causing trouble. I hope Your Majesty will be aware of it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Lin's angry voice like a mad dog came: "That's nonsense! Today you are responsible for taking care of the gifts for the birthday banquet. Now that there are poisonous insects in my gifts, who else has the opportunity to do it except you?" Such a thing!"

Seeing this, Ye Xuwan couldn't help but frown, pretending to be innocent but looking innocent.

"If the imperial concubine believes that the slave did it, I hope the imperial concubine will come up with evidence. Otherwise, the slave will feel that he was extremely unjust until his death."

A little servant could say such awe-inspiring words when facing Concubine Lin.

In comparison, Concubine Lin, who was standing on the high platform and dressed in luxurious clothes, looked like a clown.

Seeing everyone in the audience starting to talk, Concubine Lin panicked. She quickly turned to look at the maid aside and asked sternly: "You were the one who told me personally just now that the prince had poisonous insects. How come you are here now?" Came to my palace!"

Facing Concubine Lin's questioning, the maid was frightened and trembled all over, like a white sheep in a wolf's circle.

"Slave, I obviously saw it with my own eyes... Maybe I saw the wrong box. What the eunuch put was actually the empress's gift box! The person she wanted to frame was actually the imperial concubine!"

The maid didn't hesitate at all and insisted.

Seeing this, a coldness flashed in Ye Xuwan's eyes, and then she asked: "Since you saw me release it with your own eyes, why didn't you report it directly to His Majesty at that time, instead of waiting until the birthday ceremony began? I only told the imperial concubine about this matter.”

"I!……"

Ye Xuwan's words immediately choked the maid, and the look on her face suddenly looked flustered.

"Could it be that the person who really did this drama is actually..."

Having said this, Ye Xuwan stopped talking.

But what she wanted to say was already clear to everyone.

When the maid saw this, she looked at Concubine Lin beside her with a panicked expression, "Your Majesty, this slave has not..."

"Until now, you are still quibbling!"

Without waiting for any excuse, Concubine Lin stood up and slapped the maid in the face.

The maid was directly slapped to the ground by this powerful palm. She covered her face and did not react for a long time, her eyes filled with tears.

But she was just a slave, and she didn't dare to say a word.

She could only watch helplessly as her master knelt in front of the emperor and cried out: "Your Majesty, this maid must have been too strict with me on weekdays, so she took the opportunity to retaliate and frame me! This maid first told me that there was something in the prince's birthday gift. The poisonous insect caused me to misunderstand the prince, and then put the poisonous insect into my concubine’s birthday gift to murder me!”

"Your Majesty, this maid has alienated the relationship between the concubine and the prince, and framed the concubine. Please ask your majesty to uphold justice for the concubine!"

Hearing this, the maid was even more shocked and speechless.

The emperor asked suspiciously: "Then why didn't you just say that this maid was talking nonsense and trying to slander the prince?"

Concubine Lin was panicked for a moment, and then immediately said with certainty: "Today is His Majesty's birthday banquet. Even the prince did not mention these disappointing things. How can she, a little maid, disturb His Majesty's birthday banquet? This matter is for my concubine. The discipline was incompetent. I originally wanted to go back to the palace to investigate and deal with it, but I never thought that this maid would be so vicious and actually let poisonous insects into my concubine’s birthday gift!"

The emperor was silent for a while after listening to Concubine Lin's words, but Qingnu's expression gradually softened a lot.

He waved his hand, and his eyes were full of the emperor's coldness and ruthlessness.

"Come here! This maid intends to frame the prince and the concubine. She will be thrown into prison immediately! She will be executed tomorrow afternoon!"

"Wha, what? No, Your Majesty! It's not the slave's arrangement, it's all Concubine Lin!..."

Concubine Lin pretended to be disappointed and shed tears, her pretty face full of grievances, "Although I govern the palace strictly, I always treat you well. Your family members are sick, and I gave you extra silver to buy medicine for your family. Who would have thought that you were an ignorant white-eyed wolf who wanted to put me to death?"

Concubine Lin's insinuations and confusing words made Ye Xuwan on the side shudder.

She is clearly aware of the oppression caused by the disparity in status between people in this era.

It is easier for a superior to pinch a person than to kill an ant.

When Concubine Lin mentioned her family, the maid exhausted all her strength and stopped arguing.

It wasn't until the maid was taken away by the guards that Concubine Lin's nervous expression relaxed, and she saluted the emperor in a coquettish way:
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for upholding justice for my concubine."

"Lin Huan."

Concubine Lin was stunned, "My lord, my concubine is here."

The emperor looked at the woman in front of him with indifferent eyes, and then said in a cold voice: "I am very disappointed in you."

"Your Majesty, my concubine!..."

"According to my decree, Concubine Lin is confined to the palace from now on! She is not allowed to leave the palace for any reason except for the day ceremony. No matter who disobeys the order, I will definitely punish him severely!"
