Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 167 I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go (2)
"My lord, that purse concubine has also moved herself."

As soon as he said a word, the audience was shocked.

King Zhongyi's eyes were dark, and Xun Shi was startled for a moment, and crystal clear tears fell from his eyes.

"Sister..." Her voice was hoarse, and emotion appeared in her eyes. "Sister, why do you..."

"Sister, you and I are as close as sisters, how can I just watch you being wronged and turn a blind eye?" Ning's tone was firm, and she looked back at King Zhongyi.

"My lord, in this way, isn't it possible that the concubine may be the murderer who killed the child in the womb of Concubine Zhao?" There was sarcasm in her eyes, and even more self-deprecating.She's not stupid, the chain of tricks that happened today was clearly aimed at finding her younger sister.She doesn't know who is behind that, but she must not let Xunmei be convicted of murdering Zhao's unborn son today, otherwise Xunmei will have no way out.

King Zhongyi's eyes were deep, and he looked at Ning with a complicated look.So weak, yet so strong, very much like her.

"Father." Ling Xizhen came up, and said in a soft voice: "I'm afraid this matter is not simple, father should investigate thoroughly." She always felt that today's events were weird, Ning, Xun, Zhao .These three people...

Ling Xiqing also came up, "Father, I also feel that the case cannot be easily settled at this time."

Ling Xihan raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile.For the first time, Ling Xiqing and Ling Xizhen coincided with each other.It's funny, it's funny.In Mrs. Zhao's room just now, Ling Xizhen was obviously helping Mrs. Xun, and vaguely seemed to want to put the blame on Mrs. Ning.As for Ling Xiqing, she was calm from the beginning, but that doesn't mean she didn't do anything.For example, Tianhe, she is Ling Xiyun's maid, why did she suddenly come here to tell everyone about Yiliu's death?
But after all these changes, she did understand one thing, Ling Xiqing and Ling Xizhen were their own masters, and behind them was a master who was instigating secretly.

But what happened to Zhao's miscarriage?

King Zhongyi pursed his lips and said nothing, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

The princess suddenly said indifferently: "My lord, although there are many coincidences in this matter, it involves a lot and involves your children. The purse is certainly the most important clue, and it also proves that Concubine Ning and Concubine Xun have something to do with this matter. It is related. From the perspective of the concubine, it is better to handle it carefully. Neither the two side concubines should be wronged, nor the chief culprit should be easily indulged. " Wangfei's words are reasonable, and King Zhongyi is not easy to refute.

"Then what do you think?"

The concubine thought for a while, "This matter should have been investigated by Jing Zhaoyin, but the family ugliness should not be publicized. According to my concubine, we should ground the two side concubines first, and then slowly find out the truth based on the purse."

Ling Xihan glanced at the concubine in surprise, with admiration in his eyes, as expected of the person next to the queen.

King Zhongyi was silent, and Ling Xiqing's eyes moved slightly.

"Father, that's the only way to go now."

"My daughter also agrees with what my mother said." Ling Xizhen then said lightly.

"My lord." Mrs. Jia came up, "I think it's feasible."

Ling Xiyun, Ling Xiwan and Lu Shi looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Father (prince) and daughter (concubine) also agree."

King Zhongyi squinted his eyes, and suddenly looked at Ling Xihan, who had remained silent from the beginning, his eyes flickered.

"Han'er, what do you think?"

Ling Xihan had a half-smile, "Does my father really want to hear my opinion?"

"Come and listen."

The corner of Ling Xihan's mouth curled up, the cold and treacherous light in his eyes changed, and he lightly highlighted a sentence that shocked everyone.

"I think it's better to kill one thousand by mistake than to let one go." She had already thought of the key point. The three side concubines all had powerful backgrounds, which must be the real purpose of the person behind them.That being the case, why didn't she take this opportunity to find out who was behind the scenes?She no longer wants to be a pawn played by others, starting from the three side concubines, she must take the initiative to attack and never give the other party a chance to take advantage of it.

The queen is right, this is a world where the weak prey on the strong, where power and desire collide.She is just an ordinary woman, since she has been involved, she has to be a free pawn.Since the opponent wants to use her chess piece, then she should properly let this chess piece play its role in this game of chess.She wants to let the two chess players know that since she is going to be involved in this game of chess, she must be prepared to pay the price of being backlashed by the chess pieces at any time.

As soon as she said this, everyone's face changed drastically.

"You—" Xun Shi looked at Ling Xihan angrily and in disbelief. Just now, Ling Xihan said something fair in front of the prince, and she thought she was not a person who doesn't know right from wrong.did not expect--

The princess was also surprised, Ling Xiqing, Ling Xizhen and others frowned slightly, but did not speak.

In the dark, two pairs of eyes stared at Ling Xihan, both showing the same smile.

King Zhongyi had a smile on his face and a relaxed tone.

"Then what does Han'er mean?"

Ling Xihan raised his eyebrows, his tone suddenly cold.

"Concubine Zhao was careless. She failed to protect her father's heirs. She was fined for three months, banned for half a year, and demoted to a concubine. Concubine Ning and Concubine Xun conspired to kill their father's unborn child. There are all witnesses and material evidence. Now, his heart is vicious and heinous, and he will be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for sentencing to set the record straight." The last four words were spoken so resoundingly that everyone present was shocked.

Wang Zhongyi's eyes were slightly surprised, and the faces of Ning and Xun changed drastically.

However, Ling Xihan continued to say indifferently: "Concubine Ning and Concubine Xun were jealous, and these things happened. After all, as the mistress of the house, the concubine did not find out that the two of them had misbehavior in time, which led to today's situation. The consequence is the crime of negligence. If the father and prince lose their heirs, the princess will also lose her morality, so she should be confinement for three months and hand over the power of the master."

She glanced slightly at Wang Hao's instantly pale face, smiled slightly, and said softly to King Zhongyi: "Father, what do you think of my daughter's proposal?"

"Third sister, you?" Ling Xiqing was shocked, she didn't expect her to involve her mother in this matter so keenly, and it was impossible to refute.She thought, maybe she will get to know this third sister again in the future.Only now did she realize that what she had done in the past month was nothing compared to what she did today.It turned out that she had hidden her edge from the beginning.

With her like this, does she need to secretly protect her?

She smiled wryly in her heart, and now she finally understood somewhat why the young master was so special to her.

Ling Xizhen frowned, her indifferent eyes sparkling.She pursed her lips, her face was slightly cold.

Zhongyi understood from the initial surprise, and then said lightly: "Well, what Han'er said is right, let's do this. Come on, Ning and Xun are restless and murdered the king's child. Now remove the side concubine respect The position was handed over to the Ministry of Punishment. Mrs. Zhao’s negligence indirectly caused the premature death of the king’s child before he was born. Now he is demoted to a concubine’s room, fined half a year’s salary, and banned for one year. The princess is not good at managing the inner courtyard. Punish him for half a year and hand over the power of master. Qingxiang didn't take good care of his master, causing Zhao's miscarriage and death with a stick."
